Hand-painted ornaments created to help cancer patients
'Joyful Ornaments' allows women to help women
A growing network of upstate women found a way to share the season of hope through hand-painted ornaments.
In 2011, Kristi Giddens started the Janet Danner Joyful Ornament Fund as a Christmas gift to her friend, Kyra Lewis. Giddens said as part of the gift, she wanted to honor the memory of Danner, who was Lewis' mother.
"Our hope is that other women will care for other women and we will be able to meet each other's needs in the community," Giddens told WYFF.
The effort began with 12 women who volunteered to hand paint and sell Christmas ornaments and give the proceeds to a woman who is fighting cancer to help offset medical expenses.
Lewis said she was moved by the mission named for her mother.
"I think that this is a true testament of her spirit, her kindness and her love. I'm very excited to be a part of it," Lewis told WYFF.
Giddens said she asked another friend and cancer survivor, Joyce Fowler, for help designing the ornaments to sell. The beneficiary chosen for 2011 was Francis McWatters, a mother of three who was battling breast cancer.
Last year, Giddens said volunteers made and sold 800 ornaments to help McWatters. This year, about 60 women have made more than 1,000 ornaments while gathering at their homes, churches and other places, Giddens said.
Sarah McClintock, 12, was chosen as the 2012 beneficiary for the Joyful Ornament Fund.
McClintock was diagnosed with medulloblastoma, a form of brain cancer, in August 2011. Since then, she has undergone surgery and been treated with radiation and chemotherapy.
"The toughest part is me not being able to do what I used to be able to do," McClintock told WYFF.
McClintock has met many of the volunteers who have worked on the ornaments.
"It was really nice of them and they're very special to me," McClintock said.

Maria Sharapova beats Sara Errani at Sony Open in Miami
KEY BISCAYNE, Fla. (AP) -- The grunts were long and loud in the final game, as if Maria Sharapova was pushing a couch across nearby Crandon Beach.
Trying to win the Sony Open must feel that way to Sharapova, a four-time runner-up. She returned to the semifinals Wednesday despite a patchy performance, beating Sara Errani 7-5, 7-5.
Sharapova had 57 unforced errors, including 13 double-faults, and overcame three set points in the second set.
"I made things much more difficult than they should have been,'' she said.
The two sets took 2 1/2 hours, and a flurry of mistakes by both players left spectators groaning. Sharapova had the last laugh, whacking a forehand winner past Errani on match point.
"She really made me work for this match,'' Sharapova said. "I had to dig deep - so many opportunities, a few ups and downs. I'm definitely happy to get through another one.''
Seeded No. 3, she'll play Thursday against No. 22 Jelena Jankovic, who beat No. 15 Roberta Vinci 6-4, 6-7 (6), 6-3.
The men's quarterfinals featured eight Europeans for the first time, and in the opening match, No. 3 David Ferrer of Spain rallied past unseeded Jurgen Melzer of Austria, 4-6, 6-3, 6-0. Ferrer's opponent Friday will bracket buster Tommy Haas of Germany, who beat No. 11 Gilles Simon of France, 6-3, 6-1.
The 34-year-old Haas became the oldest man to beat a No. 1 player in a completed match in 30 years when he upset three-time champion Novak Djokovic on Tuesday night.
Sharapova faced Errani in a rematch of last year's French Open final, which Sharapova won to complete a career Grand Slam. But she has never won Key Biscayne, losing the final in 2005, `06, `11 and `12.
"I've been so close to winning,'' Sharapova said. "I would love to win this. I've been coming to this tournament since I was a little kid as a spectator. To be playing here, to be doing so well and getting to that stage, I sure hope I can go further this time.''
Her quarterfinal took place with the stadium half empty despite postcard weather. Attendance is down about 7 percent from last year, and promoters blame the absence of Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer.
Sharapova struggled with both her first and second serves, and in the second set she lost eight consecutive service points. While she and Errani waged a series of long, entertaining baseline rallies, both were also prone to blowing easy shots.
Sharapova's superior firepower proved the difference. Serving at 4-5 in the second set, she erased three set points and held. Two games later she endured one final double-fault, then hit winners on the last two points.
Errani, seeded No. 8, fell to 0-26 against opponents ranked in the top five. She's 0-4 against Sharapova.
"It's nice to get through a match when you don't feel like you're playing your best, because you feel like you have a lot to improve,'' Sharapova said. "You have no choice. It's a semifinal.
"Would I have loved to play better? Of course. But some days you can't go out on the court and everything goes in and you feel great and you're playing the way you imagined to play. It just doesn't happen.''
Sharapova has won 10 consecutive matches, all in straight sets. She won the Indian Wells championship this month and is bidding to become the third woman to claim that title and Key Biscayne in the same year. Steffi Graf did it in 1994 and 1996, and Kim Clijsters won both in 2005.

Mystery Cube
|3 – 8
|Tech Requirement
Why Use This Tool
Everyone loves a good mystery, but what makes a mystery story work? Most mysteries follow a formula: There's a crime or mystery, someone who's trying to figure it out, clues along the way, and finally, a solution. This activity asks children to separate a mystery into its distinct elements, like ingredients in a recipe. By listing the elementsone on each side of a cubechildren will begin to see how a writer constructs a mystery. They can even use the cube to cook up some mysteries of their own!
Heres What To Do
Children will use the online tool to identify the setting, the crime or mystery that occurs, the detective, the victim, the clues, and the solution. The cube template can be printed, cut out, folded, and taped together to form a cube (see sample). A planning sheet is available to help children prepare for the online exercise.
More Ideas To Try
- During a vacation or field trip, enlist children as detectives who should look out for anything unusual. When they spot somethinglike a limousine waiting outside a fast food restaurantask them to use it as inspiration for a mystery story.
- When watching a mysterious movie, stop at key points so children can identify elements on the mystery cube. After the movie, discuss what they did or didnt like. How would they change the setting or clues if it were their movie?
- Have children write their own mystery stories and then bring them to life using PowerPoint or video clips. See the PowerPoint Instruction Sheet and instructions for Windows Movie Maker for ideas and tips.
- In a mystery, someone attempts to use clues and reasoning to answer a question. Ask children for other occasions when those same strategies are employed to answer questions or solve problems. This can include their own experiences as well as inquisitive professions, such as research science, journalism, or cooking in a test kitchen.

The Review: Momed in Beverly Hills
Alex Sarkissian is a natural. I've rarely encountered a restaurateur so relaxed and engaging, whether he's chatting with neighborhood regulars or checking on a table of newcomers. He moves around Momed, his 6-month-old eastern Mediterranean cafe, like Papa Bear, running interference between the waiters and the cooks working in the open kitchen, sometimes taking or delivering orders himself.
This guy can spot a scorched pide (Turkish flatbread) from across the room and act on it. He rushes over to offer to replace the pide fresh from the wood-burning oven with another.
Nothing doing: We actually like the places where the crust is smoky and slightly scorched. Inside is a wonderfully gooey mess of melted halloumi cheese and spicy soujouk sausage with red onions. Unlike a pizza's, its crust is folded over at the edges and the shape is not round, but a long skinny oval, pointed at the ends and sliced on the diagonal. The one with wild mushrooms, Coleman Family Farms' spigarello (a curly dark green) and Akawi cheese is terrific too. A minced-chicken version with peaches and pistachios misses, though.
Ask Sarkissian to describe Momed's cuisine and he'll tell you it's eastern Mediterranean with forays to Morocco, Tunisia, Iraq, Egypt, rattling off countries with the sureness of someone who grew up in that part of the world. With executive chef Matthew Carpenter, he conceived the idea of Momed (the name stands for modern Mediterranean) with the idea of using sustainable or organic ingredients, or both. That makes the food a little more expensive than that at run-of-the-mill Mediterranean or Middle Eastern restaurants, but it's still very affordable.
Momed's shawarma, for example, isn't made with anonymous meat: It's made with flavorful duck, rolled up with oven-dried tomatoes, fig confit and a subtle garlic spread in a house-made whole wheat pita.
That wood-burning oven (not an easy thing to come by these days) turns out the freshly baked pita bread that arrives with almost every order. The warm 6-inch rounds are on the pale side, supple and delicately yeasty, useful for scooping up dabs of rustic crimson muhammara (a rough purée of roasted sweet red peppers, walnuts and pomegranate syrup) or smoky eggplant baba ghanouj. A trio of three classic salads or dips to share is a pretty good deal at $12.
Moroccan carrot salad, though, is too bland and Persian cucumbers cut in thick slices and sprinkled with chile and poppy seeds could use a bit more oomph.
The Arabic equivalent of panzanella is the bread salad fattoush. Momed's version is made with shards of crispy pita, tomato, cucumber and Little Gem lettuce. And a piece of crispy brown Jidori chicken roasted in the wood-burning oven is nestled beside the salad. The dressing is made with organic olive oil flavored with tart sumac, and it's neither over- nor underdressed. The dish is perfect as a main course salad at lunch.
That oven also turns out breakfast items. You can order manaeesh, described as a traditional Lebanese breakfast bread, a long flap of flatbread sprinkled with organic extra-virgin olive oil and fragrant za'tar and sesame seeds rolled up like a length of cloth. Egg dishes are baked in a heavy cast-iron skillet. One of the best is organic oven-baked eggs scrambled with marinated artichokes and dusky wild mushrooms. It's really more like a frittata than scrambled eggs. For $3, you can add a patty of juicy house-made merguez sausage. You'll want an order of "dirty" potatoes too, roasted Weiser Family Farms' pee-wee potatoes in their skins, rolled in a black olive tapenade.
The cafe is as lively as its counterpart in Tel Aviv or Beirut. South Beverly Drive is a neighborhood that walks, so passersby will suddenly recognize friends sitting on the broad sidewalk terrace in front, come in and pull up some chairs and visit, ordering glasses of organic crimson berry or Moroccan mint and rose-petal iced tea. Or a cup of Intelligentsia coffee and some filo dough pastries made for the restaurant at a Glendale bakery. The 2-by-2-inch squares filled with a mix of pistachios and walnuts are super-sweet, the better to taste the quality of the nuts and the fine fragile pastry.
Momed is basically open all day, starting with the breakfast and morning pastries. At breakfast and lunch, it's counter service only. At dinner, though, there is table service from personable waiters earning their way through school or their first apartment in L.A. And they like the food.
When our waiter suggests the tuna brochette with grape leaf salsa, I'm dubious, but try it anyway: It's wonderful, the chunks of fish perfectly cooked, the sauce punchy and piquant. Another sure winner: the delicious "lamburger" garnished with crispy shallots and cucumber yogurt on a soft challah bun to soak up the lamb's juices. It comes with Momo chips cut from a big potato, fried and brought out warm —irresistible.
In the frenzy to order, don't overlook the mezze category. It's just a handful of items, but they're all very good, particularly the kibbe bil sinaieh, ground lamb baked with bulgur and pine nuts — fabulous, like a dense, triangle-shaped meatloaf, oozing with lambiness. Baleela is a must too, warm chickpeas with toasted pine nuts and preserved lemon bathed in brown butter.
The quirky décor involves a lot of white, including rows of closely packed ceiling ducts that cover the ceiling and flat lamps that look like octopus suckers. Salads in the glass display case add notes of color. At the back, pastries are displayed like jewelry. A cooler holds Middle Eastern soft drinks and bottled water, and the wine list is larded with kosher wines, some of them from Israel.
Be careful parking. Momed doesn't have valet parking, but there's a public parking structure nearby, and street parking, if you can find a space. I aced one and came back to find a $90 ticket on my windshield. I suspected that space was too good to be true, but it was too dark to see that the curb was red. Kind of took the fun out of the evening.
But I went back. And back, drawn by Momed's fresh and honest take on eastern Mediterranean cuisine and Sarkissian's warm welcome.

Story highlights
- Doug Yakich has had Crohn's disease for more than 20 years
- Yakich had a life-changing colostomy about two years ago
- He hopes his essay will inspire a national conversation about ostomies
- Have a personal essay to share with the world? Submit at CNN iReport
In general, digestive diseases are hidden in the bathroom. You don't talk about anything that happens there unless it's with your spouse or a close friend.
Being ashamed and scared, you tend to pull back and hide. Nobody wants to stand out on a corner and say, "I've got an ostomy," myself included.
I have an ostomy -- just like more than 500,000 people in the United States, according to the United Ostomy Associations of America. An ostomy is a surgically created opening in the body that allows for the external elimination of body waste. They call mine a colostomy because it involves my colon. There are many types of ostomies, such as those involving the bladder or the ileum (the final part of the small intestine).
My path to this crossroads involved being diagnosed with Crohn's disease at the age of 17. The chronic disease left me doubled over in pain during flare-ups that sent me to the bathroom frequently for days. Some of the symptoms people experience are nausea, life-threatening bowel obstructions, incontinence, dehydration, intravenous feeding, fatigue and depression.
My illness was punctuated by multiple surgeries, hospitalizations and a body fighting to stay alive. I am thankful for the amazing doctors and nurses at UCLA who saved my life not once but twice.
Six years ago, my Crohn's had gotten so bad, I had a temporary ostomy where my colon was reattached several months later. I remember my emotional status after that: I didn't want to leave the house. If my bag filled up, I didn't want to use a public restroom to change it.
I found myself facing a permanent colostomy in 2010. I knew that I needed the procedure to save my life, but I was faced with the impending realization that my body and my life would change forever.
I would no longer be able to hit the beach and take my shirt off without people staring or getting grossed out. Nor would I be able to sleep with my shirt off, because it would mean one less layer of protection against a leak. I was afraid to leave my house or even let anyone see my bag; I have even hidden it from my inquisitive 8-year-old daughter.
I found myself trying to cover up noises and smells that I was convinced others always heard and smelled, although they rarely did. I knew that I had to make a choice between living my life in fear or meeting this new challenge head-on.
Eventually, I came to a realization: I refused to be part of a stigma and go into hiding because of embarrassment.
Now I am sharing my story in an effort to help educate the general population about ostomies. We need to start a national conversation about ostomies and let people know they are not alone.
David Rudzin, president of the United Ostomy Associations of America, agrees. "It would break the stigma and the silence, since no one talks about ostomy surgery. People consider it disfiguring and gross," he said.
"Ostomies, like mastectomies, save lives, period," he said. "Unfortunately, all people focus on is crapping in a pouch."
You see, all of my fears 2½ years ago were for nothing. Besides my efforts to raise awareness, I have traveled, gone to the beach (my shirt stays on, though), swum freely in pools and oceans, and even gone ziplining.
Having the ostomy has done nothing to impede my way of life. If anything, it has improved it. I am no longer living a life inside the bathroom.
My mission now is to convince everyone to start the conversation about ostomies. Maybe then we can reach those people who feel lost and scared, educate the public about greater acceptance and, most important, raise awareness so that no one fears having an ostomy or knowing someone with one.

Historical Significance
HMS Victory, the most famous ship in the history of the Royal Navy, is best known as Horatio Nelson\\'s flagship at the Battle of Trafalgar on October 21, 1805. Today Victory is docked at Portsmouth and as flagship of the Second Sea Lord and Commander-in-Chief Naval Home Command is the oldest commissioned warship in the world.
Laid down in 1759 Victory was a First Rate, the most powerful type of ship of her day with three gun decks mounting 100 guns. The Royal Navy had always built very large ships to fight major fleet battles. In contrast the French and Spanish navies did not build First Rates until after the end of the American War of Independence in 1783. Victory was launched in 1765 but was not commissioned until 1778. This long period of weathering meant her timbers were well seasoned and was a major reason for her long life.
In service for almost forty years, Victory was well known for her excellent sailing qualities and served as the flagship to a series of distinguished Admirals including Kempenfelt, Howe, Hood, Jervis and Saumarez. She fought at Ushant in 1781 and St Vincent in 1797. In 1797 she was pronounced unfit for further service and orders were given for her conversion into a hospital ship. However the loss of First Rate ship HMS Impregnable in 1799 saw the decision reversed and what became the \\'Great Refit\\' took place at Chatham between 1800-1803.
Victory\\'s most famous Admiral was Horatio Nelson who flew his flag from her between May 1803 and October 1805 as Commander-in-Chief of the Mediterranean Fleet. For eighteen months Nelson blockaded the French fleet under Admiral Villeneuve in Toulon.
In March 1805 Villeneuve\\'s fleet slipped out of harbour and Nelson chased it to the West Indies and back without meeting it in battle. The French ended up being bottled up in Cadiz harbour in Spain and when they set sail for the Mediterranean on Octobe 19th Nelson aboard Victory was waiting.
On October 21, 1805, Victory led the British fleet into battle off Cape Trafalgar against the Franco-Spanish force; at 1148 the most famous signal in the history of the Royal Navy, \\'England Expects That Every Man Will Do His Duty\\' flew from her masthead.
Victory first engaged the French flagship Bucentaure followed by the Redoutable. Nelson was shot by a French marksman from the Redoutable at the height of the battle and died at 1630 when victory was assured. Out of a crew of 821, Victory had 57 men killed and 102 wounded demonstrating the serious nature of the fighting.
After further service in the Baltic and off the coast of Spain, Victory was put into reserve in 1812 in Portsmouth. Flagship of the Port Admiral from 1824 she became flagship of the Commander-in-Chief in 1889. She entered her present dock in Portsmouth on January 12, 1922.

Total Wellness Cleanse Reviews
I felt myself gaining more energy and feeling lighter and more spunk to my step…..
I participated in the 30 days Total Wellness Cleanse program and have learned a lot.
It was a tough first day since I love my coffee and had caffeine withdrawal headaches the first day. But once I got thru that day I started feeling better every day.
I felt myself gaining more energy and feeling lighter and more spunk to my step. I lost 6 lbs. the first week, yet did not feel like I was depriving my body of food like so many other diets do.
I loved the options of eating other foods from the plan if I didn't feel like eating what was slated for that day.
I also loved the cooking class videos and found them very helpful in following the recipes and learning the value of the foods in the recipes.
I always loved vegetables but never really tried too many new ones outside of my comfort zone in what I was used to eating. It was an eye opening experience to try out new vegetables and learn the variety of ways to incorporate them into my diet.
I now spend most of my time in the fruit and vegetable aisle of the grocery store and feel good about buying foods that I know are good for me.
I even got my husband to try a few of the recipes and he really liked the salads and dressing I made.
I look forward to sharing my recipes and knowledge I have gained from the program with my family, friends and coworkers.
I believe that anyone who is serious about getting their body healthy will appreciate this program and get the results they desire.
Thank you for putting this program together and helping me become a healthier person inside and out.
Thanks for all you do Yuri!
- Janet
I just completed the 30-day Total Wellness Cleanse and the results have exceeded my expectations.
I lost 7 pounds, and am now at a very comfortable weight that I have been struggling to reach for almost 2 years – and this time I didn't struggle at all! I also lost an inch around my waist and hips and close to an inch around my thighs.
But more important, I am off caffeine (from 2 cups of coffee a day), drink red wine only once a week (instead of a glass every night), and have eliminated most of my sugar/snack cravings.
And best of all, I feel like this is an eating style I can maintain forever – more and more fresh veggies, a little fruit, a bit of grains/legumes, and a bit of fish or eggs. Most of the recipes in the program are delicious and I will continue using them.
I am also enjoying the teleclass seminars, which are informative and inspiring. Thank you for all the education and support. Here's to our health!
- Ellen

The American Naval Records Society (ANRS) was founded in 2010. Its mission is to foster the expansion of research into, writing about and teaching of American naval history through the publication of documentary sources. The model for the ANRS has been the British Navy Records Society, which was established in 1893 for the purpose of printing unpublished manuscripts and rare works of naval interest.
The ANRS project brings the editing of naval documents into the 21st century. This bodes well for the continuance of series that could not have been published in the traditional way because of the vast expense involved. It also makes possible the distribution of archival documents that might not have seen the light of day, in the sense of being easily accessible. The editors' tasks, of course, remain those of research, selection, annotation, organization and indexing.
The initial effort of the ANRS has been to publish—in electronic form—selected government publications in the public domain and other documentary sources not under copyright. These are available as Adobe Acrobat (PDF) files linked from indices on this site as follows: What's New, Subject Index, Chronological Index and Alphabetical Index. Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader 9.0 or later are required view the PDF files.
This electronic publication of archival documents opens a wide vista for historians of future naval operations. This is important for operational analysts, historians, and their readers because, as has often been said: no documents, no history, and—we could add—no understanding of the past.
A state-by-state listing of local sources of naval history is maintained by the Naval History & Heritage Command

When Jodie Evans delivered the voices of Afghan women to President Obama, she was also delivering a demand for accountability. The women of Afghanistan are calling for accountability from the US as well as from the corrupt Afghan leaders that our government supports. How can we have true peace or justice if our leadership doesn't own up to the devastation they have wrought?

CODEPINK is a women-initiated grassroots peace and social justice movement working to end U.S. funded wars and occupations, to challenge militarism globally, and to redirect our resources into health care, education, green jobs and other life-affirming activities. The name CODEPINK satirized the Bush Administration's color-coded, fear-mongering "security" alert system that has since been phased out. CODEPINK is a lively call for the people of the world to "wage peace." More...

At times it did not look as though Jack Wilshere was breathing through his mouth. The Arsenal midfielder and great hope of English football played his first minutes for 14 months in the Under-21 Premier League fixture at West Bromwich Albion on Mondayand the good news was that his right ankle held up. His temples, however, pounded. Asked afterwards how he felt, he replied with one word: "Shattered".
There was a sweetness to the discomfort. Wilshere had dreamed about this day throughout the arduous months of rehabilitation from the stress fracture that he suffered on international duty for England against Switzerland on 4 June 2011. That remains his last senior competitive action. His previous football had come in the Emirates Cup friendly against the New York Red Bulls on 31 July of last year, when he aggravated the injury, the first of many setbacks.
He lasted 63 minutes of Arsenal's 1-0 defeat by West Brom and, if it was far from a vintage performance, it did not matter. To Wilshere and everybody connected to the club it was a positive step forward. Caution must remain the watchword and Wilshere can expect to play for the under-21s again. But the target is to have him on the first-team substitutes' bench by the end of the month. It feels achievable.
"When you have been out for so long it's only natural that you're going to be tired," said Emmanuel Frimpong, the Arsenal midfielder, who played as part of his own comeback from serious injury. "Jack needs more games to get fit but I think the England and Arsenal fans should be excited to see him back playing."
This was no ordinary under-21 game. Wilshere was met by a cluster of photographers in attendance as he emerged from the tunnel – the media presence was substantial – and the announcement of his name over the PA system was cheered. There are normally only scouts at such matches but here there were 338 people in the stands. Many had travelled from London; one sported a "Wilshere 19" shirt.
Wilshere is now the club's No10, the shirt he took over in the summer from the departed Robin van Persie, and he played in the attacking midfield role in the reserve coach Terry Burton's 4-2-3-1 formation, although he did briefly swap places in the first half with Frimpong, who played in one of the deeper-lying central positions.
Wilshere's every involvement was scrutinised, particularly when the 50-50 challenges presented themselves, even if he has already mixed it in training since his return to full-contact sessions on the Thursday before last. He caught Mikel Arteta in one of them with a full-blooded tackle and saw his team-mate come after him. Arteta did not connect fully but, for Wilshere, the exchange represented a psychological hurdle cleared.
"I've given him a few testers," Frimpong added with a smile. "When you're training with me every day, you're always going to come back with a few knocks. Jack gave Mikel a little tester so Mikel knows he's back and has to be on his toes. When you've been out for so long, you want people to knock you about a bit."
Wilshere was the recipient of a hospital pass from Jernade Meade in the 13th minute and, when West Brom's Sam Mantom dived in, he wisely decided not to go there.
He has spent enough time in various wards. In the second half he emerged from a collision with Yassine El Ghanassy, the West Brom goalscorer. It was impossible not to sense fluttering hearts.
Wilshere, who has bulked up from his sessions in the gym – his thighs look like tree-trunks – felt a couple of digs but he dished out a bit, too.
There were flashes of his former self, a smart pass here and a driving run there, but it was the understandable lack of stamina that was most pronounced. He practically dragged himself through the latter stages of the first half as errors crept into his play. The 20-year-old, though, was simply happy to be back.

Google challenges U.S. gag order in NSA flap
- Asks secret court to let company tell more about information it divulges
Taking yet another step in its struggle to distance itself from the National Security Administration's controversial PRISM data-mining program, Google this afternoon asked the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court to relax gag orders over data requests it makes.
Claudia Rast, a privacy attorney at Butzel Long, says the move may gain the search giant public relations benefits. But the court is not likely to amend the standing gag order, she says.
The legal filing cites the First Amendment's guarantee of free speech. Among the nine tech companies shown by whistle-blower Edward Snowden to have been handing over consumer data to the government, Google has been the most aggressive in attempts to cast itself as cooperating the least.
"We have long pushed for transparency so users can better understand the extent to which governments request their data — and Google was the first company to release numbers for National Security Letters," the company said in a statement.
Google e-mailed the statement to USA TODAY.
"However, greater transparency is needed, so today we have petitioned the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court to allow us to publish aggregate numbers of national security requests, including FISA (Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act) disclosures, separately," Google said in a statement.
"Lumping national security requests together with criminal requests — as some companies have been permitted to do — would be a backward step for our users," Google said.
Snowden was a low-level consultant who admitted to stealing documentation of NSA anti-terrorism programs that involved monitoring of phone records and Internet behaviors of consumers.
Last week, both Facebook and Microsoft released details on the number of legal orders made to them by the NSA. But Google wants to disclose even more details, such as time frames of requests. Under federal law, the NSA is permitted to issue such requests under complete secrecy.
Rast says the court is not in a position to declassify any information the NSA wants to keep secret, including presumably innocuous information Google wants permission to divulge. It probably will take a policy decision by the Obama administration or an act of Congress to compel NSA to relax the gag order, as Google wants.
"This is a PR issue," Rast says. "Basically, the companies are held to not disclose any aspect of it (PRISM) at all. And they're struggling to come up with a way to defend the privacy of their customers within the context of the FISA court issue."
Now that the existence of PRISM is public knowledge, the companies have a big incentive to disclose the precise nature of what's being handed over to the government.
At stake are billions in profits the companies anticipate from products and services tied into the Internet cloud. Consumer trust is required for that projected commerce to fully mature.
Google has by far the most to protect.The search giant is expected to make more from mobile ads than all other companies combined for the second year in a row, totaling nearly $8.9 billion in mobile ad revenue in 2013, according to projections from research firm eMarketer. That would give Google 56% of the total mobile ad market. And that's only a fraction of what Google earns from its dominant, bread-and-butter search term advertising business. Google's revenue topped $50 billion in 2012.
"Google's court filing is a step in the right direction," says Josh Bell, media strategist at the American Civil Liberties Union. "The public has a right to know more about the government's sweeping surveillance programs so that it can judge for itself whether they are necessary and legal."

Stone Mountain
The town was incorporated in 1839 and has a population of approximately 7,000 people. The Stone Mountain Industrial Park is a large employer in the area. Stone Mountain retains its small town feel despite being so close to one of the biggest cities in the Southern United States. There is a concerted effort to revitalize and grow the downtown area, tapping into the legions of tourists at the nearby Stone Mountain Park.
Get in[edit]
Stone Mountain, the city, is due East of Atlanta on Stone Mountain Parkway, which is just north of Interstate 20.
MARTA buses and trains run to the Stone Mountain area; it's also possible to ride your bike from downtown Atlanta to Stone Mountain Village on the bike trail.
Get around[edit]
Public transport is very little or nothing due to its small size.
See[edit][add listing]
Other Parks[edit]
Do[edit][add listing]
Stone Mountain Park surrounds the mountain, and encompasses a series of attractions. The park promotes its One-Day Adventure pass which permits access to/use of all the attractions for $25 (Adult; ages 12 and up), $22 (Senior/Military), or $20 (Child; ages 3-11), and tries to minimize the usage of individual attraction tickets; however these do exist and may be a cheaper option depending on what you want to see/do. The attractions include:
Stone Mountain Park is best accessed by car, there is an $10 per car one-day parking permit charge (or $35 annual parking permit) in addition to the attraction charges. There is no admission charge for those entering the park on foot; catch the MARTA rail system to Avondale and transfer there to MARTA bus route 120; disembark at the intersection of Ponce De Leon Avenue E and J.B.Rivers Memorial Drive and the park entrance is some 15 minutes walk east down J.B.Rivers Memorial Drive past the fire station.

A marriage of snowboarding and skateboarding, snowskates are the best way to enjoy the snow while utilizing both your skateboard and snowboard skills. A snowskate is essentially a skateboard deck (just slightly larger than the average skateboard) with a slick base that allows the snowskater to ride on snow.
Bi-level snowskates can be ridden at most major resorts with the use of a leash. Bi-level decks have a metal
edge that allows you to carve and control your speed.
Single deck snowskates can be ridden on any snowy ground or incline and have a channel base that allows the rider to retain control of the snowskate by using their weight.

After 8 years of success the USB 2.0 standard has begun its long journey into obsolescence. Dutch storage company Freecom has announced the first mainstream storage product based on 'SuperSpeed' USB 3.0.
Buyers will be interested to hear that the new external Hard Drive XS 3.0 doesn't cost the earth at £99 (approx $AU181) for a 1TB drive, even though that excludes the £22.99 for a desktop PCI-bus controller necessary to make it work at its intended throughput. Laptop users can pair it with a £25.99 plug-in PC Card to achieve the same effect.
The company is also supplying drivers to make USB 3.0 work with Vista and XP. Windows 7 should have 'native' drivers from not long after launch, or users will hope so. Apple is not yet supported by the XS 3.0.
As upgrades to 3.5 inch external drives go, this one looks like a good deal. USB 3.0 boosts the theoretical data throughput of USB storage devices to 4.8Gbit/s from USB 2.0's now rather tardy-sounding 480Mbit/s. Even taking in account protocol overhead, that should still dramatically reduce data transfer times at a moment when larger files sizes are starting to become commonplace.
"We now can transfer a 5GB movie in just 38 seconds - it's unbelievably fast," said Freecom's managing director, Axel Lucassen. Assuming that USB 3.0 scales proportionately, USB 2.0 would have transferred the same file in six and a half minutes.
Lucassen also put his finger on another application that should be boosted by the arrival of USB 3.0, namely transparent encryption. "The Hard Drive XS 3.0 also outperforms the competition in terms of security. Our USB 3.0 solution will have high-speed hardware encryption with AES 256 bit - this is not only the fastest but also the safest storage solution on the market," he said.
Built-in encryption is a well-kept secret of many of Freecom's portable external hard drives, but the technology has struggled to fulfil its promise due to worries over throughput. External hard drives using integrated encryption have a deserved reputation for being slow, and the interface is one factor in that.
USB 3.0 is designed to have other advantages such as the ability to power more powerful devices straight off the SuperSpeed bus, getting round the need for a power adaptor for certain classes of device. Power draw is one of the reasons why external SATA hard drives have never taken off. USB 3.0 can also cut power drain when those devices are not in use.
More generally, to permeate every type of computing device, USB 3.0 will need native support at OS level. That is the point of USB of whatever generation. Users can plug in a range of devices and they will just work without extra software being a necessity. Having to load a driver for every USB interface or device is clearly no more than a stop-gap solution.
As far as storage goes, it's been the '3.0 week' all round, Seagate having announced the first SATA 3.0 hard drive designed to raise internal hard drive bus performance.

Spiritual Warfare and Sin: Wrong Judgment
Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.—Galatians 6:7
Sin, I repeat, in addition to anything else it may be, is always an act of wrong judgment. To commit a sin a man must for the moment believe that things are different from what they really are; he must confound values; he must see the moral universe out of focus; he must accept a lie as truth and see truth as a lie; he must ignore the signs on the highway and drive with his eyes shut; he must act as if he had no soul, and was not accountable for his moral choices.
Sin is never a thing to be proud of. No act is wise that ignores remote consequences, and sin always does. Sin sees only today, or at most tomorrow; never the day after tomorrow, next month or next year. Death and judgment are pushed aside as if they did not exist and the sinner becomes for the time a practical atheist who by his act denies not only the existence of God but the concept of life after death….
The notion that the careless sinner is the smart fellow and the serious-minded Christian, though well-intentioned, is a stupid dolt altogether out of touch with life will not stand up under scrutiny. Sin is basically an act of moral folly, and the greater the folly the greater the fool. Man: The Dwelling Place of God, 47-48.
"Keep me from sin today. To sin is indeed so foolish, and yet the tendency is so strong! Deliver me from 'moral folly,' again in the power of Your Holy Spirit. Amen."

Basque Country Travel Guide
Basque Country © Garcia P
France's three Basque provinces are in the southwest corner of the country, near the Spanish border, and are steeped in folklore and ancient customs. Unlike their Spanish counterparts, the French Basque people do not harbour radical separatist views, but they do cling proudly to their identity, unique languages and traditional way of life. Men can still be seen in the traditional costume of a beret and cummerbund, towns and villages all have concrete courts for the playing of the national ball-game, pelota, and bull fighting is a popular spectator sport.
Most visitors head for the Atlantic coast to the popular resort towns of Biarritz and St-Jean-de-Luz, or to explore the Basque capital, Bayonne. Hikers and nature lovers are drawn to the grand Pyrenees Mountains to fish for fat trout, wander the trails, dunk in warm mineral pools, marvel at the glaciers, or climb challenging peaks.
In the Bigorre region, close to Basque country, is the Roman Catholic shrine at Lourdes, where the Virgin Mary is said to have appeared to a peasant girl in the mid-19th century.

Major investments are required in the water sector to meet the Millennium Development Goals and to face global changes. The capacity to lend is there, but the capacity to borrow is not: what can the different stakeholders do to increase their borrowing capacity and what do financing institutions need to do to adapt their products to the requirements of the borrowers? What can local governments do to become more reliable financial stakeholders so that 11 operators and utility managers can make investments to expand coverage and improve service delivery? What non-traditional financing mechanisms are possible to improve watershed management?

Pricing strategies are supposed to respond to financial, social, economic and environmental sustainability policy objectives, but tariffs alone may not be an appropriate vehicle to deliver on social policy objectives. Work on this topic will seek to uncover the main trade-offs between urban supply, rural supply and irrigation service provision, including strategies for pricing sanitation supply.

While sufficient financing is essential for expanding service coverage to meet the needs of poor communities, many financing mechanisms do not truly serve the poorest populations. A number of specific financial and legal solutions will be investigated to accelerate access to affordable water supply and sanitation service provision for the poor.

MANILA, Philippines - Philippine anti-narcotics agents have arrested four Canadians for allegedly trafficking illegal drugs from Mexico, a government investigator said Thursday.
The suspects have alleged links to a Mexican cartel and are undercutting Chinese traffickers dominating the local market, and this could lead to a violent drug war in the Philippines, said Rommell Vallejo, chief of the Anti-Organized and Transnational Crime Division of the National Bureau of Investigation.
"This is the first time we have encountered a syndicate composed of Canadian nationals," he said.
The suspects were arrested Wednesday in separate raids on three posh condominiums in Manila with a large stash of drugs worth more than 100 million pesos ($2.25 million). The wife of one of the men also was in custody, Vallejo said.
Agents seized enough cocaine, methamphetamine and MDMA, which is similar to ecstasy, from one of the condos to fill at least three suitcases, he said.
The suspects face life imprisonment if convicted of anti-drugs charges, for which bail cannot be posted.
Vallejo said that the drugs were shipped by parcel service from Mexico, pressed and sandwiched in metal serving trays.
Vallejo identified the suspects as James Riach, Ali Shirazi, Barry Espadilla and Tristan Olazo.
Riach was arrested in a penthouse the group rented in suburban Makati city, and Shirazi in another unit in the same building, which the group used as their "party pad," he said.
Espadilla and Olazo, who are originally from the Philippines, were arrested in a small condo unit in Taguig city, which was used as a "kitchen laboratory" and where most of the drugs were seized. Espadilla's wife was detained in the third condo, Vallejo said.
Riach and Shirazi were presented to a state prosecutor for an inquest Thursday. They and their lawyers refused to make a statement to journalists.
Citing media reports, Eric Isidoro, chief of the Reaction, Arrest and Interdiction Division of the NBI, said that Riach and Espadilla were members of the Independent Soldiers gang in Vancouver and had criminal records. Riach was convicted of weapons possession charges and Espadilla of heroin and cocaine possession after their arrest in 2008, Isidoro said.
In December, Philippine authorities raided a ranch in Batangas province south of Manila and recovered 84 kilograms of crystal meth worth around 420 million pesos ($9.4 million) intended for the local market by the Mexico's Sinaloa cartel.
Vallejo said it was unclear if the Canadians were linked to the same group.

LITTLE ROCK — One hundred and twenty-six games are not going to be enough to sort out which Southeastern Conference teams get into the NCAA Tournament, which ones land in the NIT, and which ones are left out.
Think of the SEC Tournament next week as an extended overtime and that seeds two, three, and four cannot afford to lose their opening game.
Four of the five teams that were in consideration for an NCAA bid took a step backward on Saturday by losing on the road and the way things are going, the SEC's only representatives in the NCAA might be Florida and Missouri. In that case, the NIT can cherry pick four, maybe even five or six SEC teams. The NCAA selection committee could make it simple for all concerned by admitting that Florida is in and that only the four semifinalists in Nashville will be considered.
If the SEC only gets two or three teams in the NCAA, I'm not sure whether that reflects parity or mediocrity. Since Arkansas joined the SEC in 1992, only once has the league had fewer than four teams in the NCAA. In 2009, Mississippi State joined LSU and Tennessee by winning the conference tournament.
Arkansas is on the heels of the NCAA hopefuls. Like Alabama, Kentucky, and Tennessee, the Razorbacks need a 2-0 week to be viable. Ole Miss must do even more to have any chance of overcoming its loss to Mississippi State. Even Missouri, which shows up in the NCAA brackets of all the experts, cannot afford 0-2.
Alabama and Tennessee have the best chance for short-term perfect.
Alabama's road game is at Ole Miss and the Rebels will have a difficult time getting their heads straight, knowing the ramifications of the loss at Starkville. Ole Miss coach Andy Kennedy called the loss inexcusable and said he had no explanation. He might want to note Marshall Henderson tried 18 3s and missed 15.
Alabama finishes at home against Georgia.
Tennessee's six-game winning streak ended at Georgia when Trae Golden was a non-factor. The Vols' road game is Auburn and they couldn't ask for easier. In Knoxville, they play Missouri and the Tigers, like everybody else in the league, has not been very good on the road.
Kentucky is the biggest question mark.
Getting updated final stats on Arkansas 73, Kentucky 60 game while waiting for a three-minute dance solo, the Razorbacks' poor shooting percentage did not jibe with the final score. Turns out, Arkansas took 26 more shots than Kentucky — the result of plus-12 in offensive rebounds and 11 fewer turnovers.
There was no need to watch the replay. People who saw the game said Sunday the effort was the best-ever under Mike Anderson and somebody at the office on Monday said the same thing.
If the Wildcats have a hangover, they could lose on the road at Georgia or at home to Florida.
Going with the trend, put Arkansas, Missouri, and Kentucky down for a win at home and a loss on the road and Ole Miss for an 0-2 week. If accurate, Kentucky and Alabama will be 12-6, followed by Tennessee and Missouri at 11-7, and Arkansas and Ole Miss at 10-8.
A year ago, the 12-team SEC had eight teams in the postseason, including 7-9 LSU in the NIT. But, in 2011, Mississippi State was 9-7 in conference and excluded from the postseason. Division play was still in vogue and the NCAA invited two 9-7 teams and one 8-8 team from the Eastern Division. From the Western Division, Alabama (12-4) and Ole Miss (7-9) played in the NIT.
Nothing will be decided this year until the results are in from the four quarterfinal games on March 15. An upset or two and the suspense will last until the NCAA announcement on March 17.

August 31, 2008
October 12, 2010: As noted by U. Munari et al (ATel #2913, 2010 October 9), the symbiotic star CI Cygni is currently undergoing an eclipse of the outbursting star. CI Cyg has declined from about magnitude 9.7 in late August 2010 to V=11.1 currently.
August 24, 2010: Observer Gary Poyner (Birmingham, UK) reports that the symbiotic star CI Cygni has noticeably brightened over the past few days. Poyner reports the star at a magnitude of m(vis)=9.8 on 2010 August 23.92 (JD 2455432.42). CI Cyg has been in a slow rise for several months, beginning immediately after the end of the last outburst. Continued monitoring of CI Cyg over the next several weeks and months will be useful for better understanding the nature of this star system and its outbursts.

The New Life: Words of God for Young Disciples of Christ
BY Rev. Andrew Murray
Chapter 14 Holiness
"But as He which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation: because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy" kjv@1Peter:1:15-16.
"But of Him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us sanctification" kjv@1Corinthians:1:30.
"God hath from the beginning chosen you unto salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth" kjv@2Thessalonians:2:13.
Not only has God chosen and called us for salvation, but also for holiness--salvation in holiness. The goal of the young Christian must not only be safety in Christ, but also holiness in Christ. Safety and salvation are, in the long run, found only in holiness. The Christian who thinks that his salvation consists merely in safety and not in holiness will find himself deceived. Young Christian, listen to the Word of God--Be ye holy.
And why must I be holy? Because He who called you is holy and summons you to fellowship and conformity with Himself. How can anyone be saved in God when he does not have the same disposition as God? ( kjv@Exodus:19:6 kjv@Leviticus:11:44 kjv@Leviticus:19:2 kjv@Leviticus:20:6-7)
God's holiness is His highest glory. In His holiness, His righteousness and His love are united. His holiness is the flaming fire of His zeal against all that is sin. This is how He keeps Himself free from sin, and in love makes others also free from it. It is as the Holy One of Israel that He is the Redeemer, and that He lives in the midst of His people ( kjv@Exodus:15:11; kjv@Isaiah:12:6 kjv@Isaiah:41:14 kjv@Isaiah:43:15 kjv@Isaiah:49:7 kjv@Hosea:11:9). Redemption is given to bring us to Himself and to the fellowship of His holiness. We cannot possibly take part in the love and salvation of God if we are not holy as He is holy ( kjv@Isaiah:10:17 kjv@Hebrews:12:14). Young Christians, be holy.
And what is this holiness that I must have? Christ is your sanctification. The life of Christ in you is your holiness ( kjv@1Corinthians:1:2 kjv@Ephesians:5:27). In Christ you are sanctified--you are holy. In Christ you must continually be sanctified. The glory of Christ must penetrate your whole life.
Holiness is more than purity. In Scripture we see that cleansing precedes holiness ( kjv@2Corinthians:7:1 kjv@Ephesians:5:26-27 kjv@2Timothy:2:21). Cleansing is the taking away of that which is wrong--liberation from sin. Holiness is the filling with that which is good and divine--the disposition of Jesus. Holiness is conformity to Him. It is separation from the spirit of the world and being filled with the presence of the Holy God. The tabernacle was holy because God lived there. We are holy, as God's temple, after we have God living within us. Christ's life in us is our holiness ( kjv@Exodus:29:43-45 kjv@1Corinthians:1:2 kjv@1Corinthians:3:16-17 kjv@1Corinthians:6:19).
And how do we become holy? By the sanctification of the Spirit. The Spirit of God is named the Holy Spirit because He makes us holy. He reveals and glorifies Christ in us. Through Him, Christ dwells in us, and His holy power works in us. Through this Holy Spirit, the workings of the flesh are mortified, and God works in us both the will and the accomplishment ( kjv@Romans:1:4 kjv@Romans:8:2 kjv@Romans:8:13 kjv@1Peter:1:2).
And what work do we have to do to receive this holiness of Christ through the Holy Spirit? "God bath chosen you to salvation, through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth" ( kjv@2Thessalonians:2:13). The holiness of Christ becomes ours through faith. Naturally, there must first be the desire to become holy. We must cleanse ourselves from all pollutions of flesh and spirit by confessing them--giving them up to God--and having them cleansed away in the blood. Then, holiness can be perfected ( kjv@2Corinthians:7:1). Then, in belief of the truth that Christ Himself is our sanctification, we have to take and receive from Him what is prepared in His fullness for us ( kjv@John:1:14-16 kjv@1Corinthians:2:9-10). We must be deeply convinced that Christ is wholly and alone our sanctification as He is our justification. We must believe that He will actually and powerfully work in us what is pleasing to God. In this faith, we must know that we have sufficient power for holiness, and that our work is to receive this power from Him by faith every day ( kjv@Galatians:2:21 kjv@Ephesians:2:10 kjv@Philippians:2:13 kjv@Philippians:4:13). He gives His Spirit, the Holy Spirit, in us to communicate the holy life of Jesus to us.
Young Christian, the Trinity is three times holy ( kjv@Isaiah:6:3 kjv@Revelation:4:8 kjv@Revelation:15:3-4). And this Trinity is the God who sanctifies you. The Father sanctifies by giving Jesus to you and confirming you in Jesus. The Son sanctifies by becoming your sanctification and giving you the Spirit. The Spirit sanctifies by revealing the Son in you, preparing you as a temple for the indwelling of God, and making the Son live in you. Be holy, for God is holy.
Lord God, the Holy One of Israel, what thanks will I render to You for the gift of Your Son as my sanctification, and that I am sanctified in Him. And what thanks for the Spirit of sanctification to live in me, and transplant the holiness of Jesus into me. Lord, help me to understand this correctly, and to long for the experience of it. Amen.
1. What is the distinction between forgiveness and cleansing, and between cleansing and holiness?
2. What made the temple a sanctuary? The indwelling of God. What makes us holy? Nothing less than the indwelling of God in Christ by the Holy Spirit. Obedience and purity are the way to holiness; nothing is higher than holiness itself.
3. In kjv@Isaiah:57, verse 17, there is a description of the man who will become holy. It is he who, in poverty of spirit, acknowledges that even when he is living as a righteous man he has nothing, and he looks to God to come and dwell in Him.
4. No one is holy but the Lord. You have as much holiness as you have God in you.
5. The word "holy" is one of the most profound words in the Bible, the deepest mystery of the Godhead. Do you desire to understand something of it and to obtain part of it? Then take these two thoughts, "I am holy," "Be ye holy," and carry them in your heart as a seed of God that has life.
6. What is the connection between the perseverance of the saints and the perseverance in holiness?

* Yen gains as some BoJ policymakers fret about QE costs
* Solid yen, yuan rebound aids Asia FX; won firmer
* Asian shares slip, oil falls ahead of OPEC
* Foreign institutional investor flows
* For data on currency futures
* Rupee ends at 61.86/87 per dlr vs 61.9350/9450 on Mon
* Gains in other Asian currencies aid sentiment for the rupee
* INR seen staying volatile until policy - trader
The Indian rupee gained on Tuesday after a volatile trading session as dollar selling by custodian banks and a large corporate helped offset importer demand for the greenback.
Traders said gains were also helped by higher Asian currencies on the back of strength in the Japanese yen and a rebound in the Chinese yuan. But sentiment is expected to turn
more cautious ahead of the upcoming July-September economic growth data on Friday and the Reserve Bank of India's monetary policy review on Dec. 2. India's economic growth
probably slowed to around 5 percent in the three months to September, slipping from 5.7 percent in the previous quarter, two senior finance ministry sources told Reuters,
putting pressure on the central bank to cut interest rates.
"There was good dollar buying interest seen from importers but good flows with custodian banks helped. We could see this seesaw in the rupee continue until the policy,"
said Vikas Babu Chittiprolu, a senior foreign exchange dealer with Andhra Bank.
The partially convertible rupee closed at 61.86/87 per dollar versus Monday's close of 61.9350/9450. Traders are broadly expecting the rupee to hold in a 61.50 to 62.50 range
until the RBI policy next Tuesday, with most expecting no change in interest rates but only a more dovish policy tone from the RBI. However, gains in the rupee were capped as
shares fell, retreating from a record high hit earlier in the session as financial firms slumped on worries parliament would delay an insurance bill, while new rules for offshore
derivatives raised worries over foreign flows. In the offshore non-deliverable forwards, the one-month contract was at 62.16 while the three-month was at 62.27.
