Barry Dubois is living with his inner hoon
RENOVATOR and builder Barry Dubois, who is the co-host of Channel Ten's the Living Room, revealed to us he's really a rev-head.
What's your current drive?
We were a one car family until the twins arrived eight months ago. That is an Audi A4 TDi Cabriolet which my wife loves.
Now we are a two-car family and the second is a Range Rover Vogue, it's a real family car but its one of the first cars I have ever really loved.
What do you love about your car?
Through my life I have enjoyed different things about my cars but the sound of a big engine really purring always tickles my fancy.
What was your first car and what happened to it?
A 1973 model Valiant Galant in canary yellow - it was badly hail damaged but the right price for an apprentice carpenter to get to work. I will admit I was a hoon and I put little mags and fat tyres on it. I replaced the clutch in it myself four times because of all the wheelies before I handed it down to my younger brother when he started his apprenticeship. To this day I hate that gearbox oil smell.
During your childhood, what car did your family have?
Our first brand new car was a 1971 Holden Belmont sedan, it was the pride of our family. My mum insisted on the safest colour which was white, a wireless was an extra we couldn't afford.
We sang a lot of Simon and Garfunkel and Carpenters songs on long holiday journeys down the south coast.
We used to drive slowly through the towns so we could see our reflection in the shop windows.
A proud moment for our family was at the lights of one of those country towns a little boy my age said to his dad "Look at that brand new car it's so beautiful", none of us said anything but we all sat tall and proud in our seats that day.
What is your dream car and why?
My dream car isn't a car of the modern times, I could not afford as a young man. It's a 1976 Ford F100. When my son is older we will get one and it will be used for all our big adventures together. I hope to restore one and it will purr.
Who: Barry Dubois.
Matter of fact: His building career spans more than 30 years, including a three-year posting as President of the Master Builders Association in the Eastern Suburbs. Dubois completed an apprenticeship as a carpenter and joiner in 1979, then in 1984 completed a Building Certificate and started a building company.
Current job: Co-host of The Living Room, which airs Fridays at 8.30pm on Ten and the new season is underway.

The World of Tomorrow (Aug, 1938)
The World of Tomorrow
AMERICA'S largest city next year will stage the world's largest fair, a $150,000,000 exposition costing about three times as much as Chicago's famed Century of Progress.
In addition to costing three times as much, the New York fair will be three times as big as the Chicago fair. The Century of Progress covered 424 acres. The New York World's Fair of 1939 will extend over 1,216 acres.
In fact, New Yorkers point out happily, if Chicago's Columbian Exposition and Century of Progress were combined, both of them together would not be as large in area or as costly as the fair New York is planning. And whereas the Century of Progress attracted about 38,650,-000 visitors in two seasons, New York expects to entertain 50,000,000 visitors in six months.
Building the world of tomorrow will be the New York fair's central theme and when it opens next April 30, just 150 years after the inauguration of George Washington in New York City as our first president, it will present an example of man-made magic as amazing as the blooming of a lily out of the mire. For Flushing Meadow Park, the exposition site on Long Island, was formerly a city dump and this fair is rising out of a mountain of ashes to demonstrate how the tools and processes and knowledge of today can be used to create a better world tomorrow.
The theme center of the exposition and the dominant architectural feature is to be a white globe 200 feet high seemingly poised on a cluster of fountains and flanked by a 700-foot triangular shaft. This great white ball, called the Perisphere, will rise eighteen stories above the ground and will be broader than a city block. Except for the tower, it will be the fair's highest structure and will house the key exhibit, a spectacular portrayal of the world of tomorrow. An endless stream of humanity will flow into the Perisphere night and day by way of a glass-enclosed moving stairway, the world's longest. From the top of this flight, five stories above the ground, visitors will step on a "magic carpet" or circular moving platform for their journey into the world of the future.
As this platform, fourteen feet wide, 450 feet in circumference and carrying 1,200 passengers, moves slowly around the sphere, the crowds will gaze down on a vast panorama showing cities and towns, factories and farms and fields stretching off to the horizon on all sides and blending into the clouds and light patterns of the dome.
Here will be shown all the elements of society linked together for the common good. Ships and trains and trucks will be observed bringing raw materials from farms and fields to cities and factories, and carrying manufactured products back to the country. A voice will explain the significance of all this movement, stressing the fact that each person today is dependent for his existence on the efforts of many other persons and pointing out how the problems of living have been simplified by cooperation.
Prom the exit, visitors will cross a bridge linking Perisphere and tower, descending a stairway inside the shaft or walking down a 900-foot "helicline" or ramp winding around the fountain basin beneath the sphere. The top of this helicline, fifty feet above the ground, will be the highest point to which visitors will be admitted and will command a view of the entire fair.
Spectacular illumination will make the globe an awe-inspiring sight at night. Batteries of projectors will spot the sphere in color and other projectors will superimpose moving patterns of light on the ball, creating the illusion that it is a glowing, almost transparent bubble of changing color rotating lazily atop supporting clusters of spouting fountains.
Actually, the Perisphere, of articulated steel frame construction with a light outer covering and weighing more than 9,000,000 pounds, will be supported on eight sturdy columns but spectators will not see them because they will be encased in glass and water will be pumped up around them, making it appear that the bubble is held up by the rush of water.
The shaft, christened the Trylon, half again as tall as the Washington monument, will have a triangular base of sixty-three feet on each side and will serve as a fair guidepost since it will be visible for miles. It also will be a steel frame with a light covering and, while it has not been planned to use it for observation purposes, there will be space for installing elevators.
The Trylon is not to be illuminated at night, except for reflected light, but will serve as the source of fair broadcasts. From it the " voice of the fair" will issue announcements over a new type of long range sound projector which will make it possible to blanket the entire grounds with beams of sound, thus eliminating overlapping and unpleasant variations in volume.
Water, flame, color and sound in almost incredible proportions are to be combined in providing two nightly spectacles expected to rival in sheer size and grandeur anything ever conceived by man for entertainment alone. One spectacle will feature the play of super-fountains and super-flames, synchronized with color effects, music and sound.
The other will be a man-made Niagara plus a man-made Vesuvius, an approach to chaos.
Hydraulic engineers, gas-company chemists, fireworks manufacturers, illumination experts, musicians, display engineers, architects, color specialists and artists collaborated in planning these two displays which require installations costing $700,000 and which are on so large a scale that two gas companies have united their resources to assure enough fuel.
The controls for these spectacles have been planned so carefully that a composition in water, flame, color and sound can be "played" from a central board much as one would render some great work on a pipe organ. At the touch of one control, a thousand fountain jets, some 150 feet high, can be made to spring from invisible sources, or towers of flame equally high can be produced to combine with the uprushing water in a furious battle of the two elements.
Then, at the height of this display, all valves can be closed so quickly that fifty tons of water will seem to hang suspended in midair. The apparent color of the water and the actual color of the fire can be controlled as easily, and the strains of a violin or music as tremendous as thunder can be produced from the very heart of the spectacular turmoil.
One spectacle will be presented from an 800-foot lagoon in the main exhibit area, the other from a lake in the amusement zone. The lagoon display will require 1,000 water nozzles and many twenty-four-inch gas burners of the Bun-sen type. Water nozzles will be grouped to produce the 150-foot columns, and one circle of jets which will produce a sheaf of golden wheat ninety feet high will require as much pumping force as would be exerted by sixty-two fire pumpers.
For the lagoon display, the many circles and patterns of nozzles, gas burners, fireworks receptacles and other equipment will be installed on a block-long platform beneath the surface of the lagoon. Two or three men will operate the show from a control room atop a near-by building. Because of the problems involved in amplifying music to a point where it can be heard above the rush of water, special musical scores must be prepared for the show.
The amusement zone spectacle will present an inferno of water, fire and color and will be staged from barges. There will be flame and water-throwing barges while light barges will bear searchlights, mercury vapor lamps and sodium floodlights, and fireworks barges will touch off the pyrotechnic displays. Others will launch silhouettes of gondolas so spectators will have a yardstick to judge the tremendous-ness of the scene. Captive balloons, played upon by searchlights, will provide the "ceiling" for the show.
The fair's most elaborate and costly artistic project will be a $60,000,000, mile-long Central Mall extending like a jeweled band across the main exhibit area. This Mall will be bordered by more than a score of the largest buildings, studded with heroic sculptures, inlaid with lagoons, enlivened by waterfalls and hundreds of fountains, accentuated by huge pylons and lined with more than 1,000 trees.
Dominating one section will be the largest portrait statue fashioned by man since the Egyptians hewed the figure of Ram-eses II out of rock—a sixty-five-foot figure of Washington as he appeared for his inauguration. Other huge figures, majestic murals and massive reliefs will adorn this area, as will a fifty-foot sun dial which will actually indicate time.
Not a light bulb or other visible source of illumination will be seen at night along the main section of the Mall. Instead, mercury vapor lights sunk in the ground will cast a soft glow into trees and foliage, causing the under sides of leaves to fluoresce and bathe the entire area in a luminous radiance, seemingly emanating from the trees, shrubbery and flowers.
Each exhibit zone will have its own key display, a spectacular "summary" of the kind of exhibits in that area. In the transportation building, for example, the focal exhibit will include an intricate working model of an interplanetary rocketport of the future. Here visitors will see futuristic ships, planes and trains unloading passengers for a trip to Mars.
Then, as motors hum, signal lights twinkle and sirens scream, will come the breath-taking moment of departure. A crane picks up the rocketship and deposits it gently in the breach of a rocketgun. There is a brilliant flash, a muffled explosion and spectators see the rocket winging its way through the heavens.
One of the largest exposition buildings ever constructed, a modernistic S-shaped structure nearly one-fourth mile long, will house the most elaborate railroad exhibit ever assembled under one roof. Among the features will be the largest working model railroad ever built, an outdoor train display and a pageant of transportation.
In a million-dollar medical center man will see himself inside and out. Visitors will see the blood stream coursing through the body of a huge transparent man and hear his rhythmic heart beats as they enter this building. There will also be models of the human eye, the mouth and the skull so large that groups can walk inside and see what "makes the wheels go round."
In many cases, the design of a building will indicate the nature of its exhibits. A gas company building will be shaped like a huge burner, marine exhibits will be displayed in a structure whose entrance will resemble a waterfront pier flanked by the towering prows of two ocean liners, and aviation progress will be shown in a building representing a colossal plane emerging from its hangar.
Television will be demonstrated in the RCA building which will be linked directly with the NBC television transmitter atop the Empire State building, and the government's $3,000,000 exhibit section will include nine large, semi-classic buildings dominated by an imposing federal structure. One feature will be great revolving murals, each of which will tell a story of government activity as it moves along the walls.
One of the outstanding features will be a $1,500,000 "Town of Tomorrow," an advanced concept of community design and housing featuring new architectural treatment and the practical use of all modern house building materials, methods and equipment, together with suggestions for home decoration.
When a Gothamite starts reeling off fair facts and figures, he sounds like an astronomer discussing distances between planets, for some of the figures are so staggering as to make even New Yorkers a bit dizzy.
"We're going to set out 1,500,000 shrubs, 10,000 trees, grow 250 acres of grass, plant millions of flowers," he begins casually, then shifts into high. "Fifteen million square feet of walls will enclose fair buildings which will be stabilized by 308 miles of pilings. Into these buildings will go 15,000,000 board feet of lumber, 28,500 tons of steel, 400,000 barrels of cement, 9,000 tons of lighting materials and 12,000 tons of plaster board.
"There will be thirty-four miles of walks about 3,000,000 square feet of building area. We expect visitors to pass through the turnstiles at the rate of three per second. We anticipate an average attendance of 250,000 a day with 800,000 on peak days. Transportation is being planned to handle 160,000 visitors an hour."
To the seasoned fair-goer, all this probably sounds like sore feet. But this fair, despite its vast proportions, expects to have fewer aching feet per acre than any previous exposition. This is because it is being zoned like a city and related exhibits will be grouped so visitors interested in any particular subject will find everything relating to it in the same general area.
The site is shaped like an airplane and exhibits will be concentrated in the 390-acre cabin section, amusements in the 280-acre fuselage, a boat basin and docks will form the propeller, and the motor and tail will form parking space for 35,000 cars.
"Every building and exhibit of the fair will tie in with the central theme," says Grover Whalen, its president. "By reviewing yesterday and studying today, by telling man of his progress in the past and showing him the tools of the present, we hope to aid millions of people in charting a better and happier future. If we can do that, the New York World's Fair of 1939 will be a success, regardless of what the balance sheet shows when it is ended."

New Artist Spotlight: Julian Drive
- Brandon Heath CCMmagazine.com
- 2009 26 Jan
This month, reigning "New Artist of the Year" Brandon Heath interviews new InPop band Julian Drive …
"After what I've already heard from Julian Drive, I'm sure we'll be hearing more. It was great to talk with the guys, and I'm excited to see what's next for them."
Brandon Heath: Hey everybody, Brandon Heath on the phone in snowy Seattle. I am talking to my new friend Shane, from the band Julian Drive. How are you doing, Shane?
Shane Bowers (lead singer, Julian Drive): I'm good, how are you doing, Brandon?
Brandon: I'm good, just hoping I don't get stranded here in Seattle. Snow can be a little challenging when it comes to travel.
Shane: I agree. Well, it is 70 degrees where I am.
Brandon: I don't even want to hear it! Are you down in your hometown, Georgia?
Shane: Yes, Athens, Ga., is home to us, and it is unseasonably warm. It's cloudy but warm.
Brandon: Yes, 70 degrees is short-sleeve weather!
Shane: Absolutely!
Brandon: Well, man, how was your Christmas? What was your favorite gift?
Shane: I'm not a big gift person. I don't mind getting, and I love giving; but the thing I enjoyed most was spending time with family. Because we travel so much, I don't get to see my folks as much. That was the best gift, spending time with my family, my wife and everybody.
Brandon: So you are married?
Shane: I am indeed.
Brandon: Do you have kids?
Shane: We have two.
Brandon: Wow, that must make your holidays busy! Well, tell me about Julian Drive.
Shane: I can tell you that we have three married guys, and one unmarried guy. We are from Athens, Ga., and we started out leading worship in church. Most of the guys were in the youth group, and I was helping out with that with my brother-in-law, the pastor there, and things just started happening. Then we started taking it more seriously. We [were] on a show on TBN in 2004 and got a lot of exposure. We went full-time a few years ago, and God continued opening doors, including signing to Inpop Records recently.
Brandon: That's great! You have been together for 10 years, and you only recently signed this record deal?
Shane: We have been plugging away with a grassroots ministry—church to church, that kind of thing—one fan at a time. Hopefully, by God's grace, changing one life at a time. That's been our focus and goal from the beginning and still is now.
Brandon: You have Shawn and Jesse and James?
Shane: That's correct.
Brandon: Be sure to tell them I said hello!
Shane: I will.
Brandon: You guys put out your first single this year. Tell us about that.
Shane: It's called "From Your Hands," and we are really excited about it. This song, in every way, shows the make-up of Julian Drive. We have a lot of musical backgrounds. You can see a hint of all of them, whether its rock 'n' roll or a shade of country, if you look close—or lots of pop. It's just a blend. It's a straightforward song about the love that Christ showed for us when He shed [His] blood for us. We wrote it when our bus broke down on the side of the road. Jesse [guitarist] and I, we just sat down and wrote it.
Brandon: Wow, that's making good use of down time!
Shane: Yeah, we never expected it to be what it has proven to be, but it's my favorite song on the record. It's the closest thing to what I really like. Hopefully, more than that, the message in there will impact somebody. We get e-mails about how it's connecting with [people's] lives, that some song we have written has touched their hearts.
Brandon: That's the coolest part, seeing how people respond to your music. Do you know what the next single will be?
Shane: Actually I do. We just got word that we are going to begin pushing the song "You Can." The title pretty much says what it's about. We are acknowledging God to be able to do anything, no matter what you're walking through. Lyrically, it's kind of like "From Your Hand"; it's somewhat in-your-face, that "You can do all these other things that You did in the Bible, so You can get me out of the mess I'm in."
Brandon: Reaffirming there's nothing we can't do when we do it together and with God. That's a timely message that a lot of people will be able relate to. Now I'm looking for "You Can" on your MySpace. … Has this come out yet?
Shane: No, [the record, My Coming Day] actually drops January 27. And so it will be out very soon. We rotated some songs on the MySpace.
Brandon: People will hear the interview, and they will want to hear the song! I listened to the songs on the record … and I love the cover of "The Reason" by Hoobastank. Tell me about that.
Shane: There were a couple songs I had to finish writing in the studio. There was always this song that I heard a while back. I don't listen to a lot of pop radio, but we heard the song a couple years ago. I thought the lyrics for that song were just dead-on for what we do, and I thought, "Maybe we should cut that." So we got ready to do the record, wrote all those songs, and we saved that one spot. We all agreed it might be a good thing to put on there. When we do it live everyone knows the words, and it is a good way to connect with those who may not have heard our music. It breaks the ice, and it's a message that's certainly relevant to what we want to accomplish.
Brandon: How long ago did you guys record, and how long have you been waiting to put this thing out?
Shane: We recorded the middle of 2007—as far as the whole tracking process. And we got done, and we were talking to Lynn Nichols [Switchfoot, Delirious], our producer. He's worked with lots of new artists that we were already fans of, and we were blessed that he worked with us. He felt like we had something special, and he encouraged us. He said, "You know, I think if you guys had a little help, it might expand your ministry." So he started knocking on the doors of some of his contacts. It led us to InPop, and they believed in what we were doing. Now it's a relief. The whole process took a while, and we are excited.
Brandon: I know how that is. I recorded the [album] I just put out almost a year ago. I had to wait six to eight months. But I'm excited for you guys; I know that people will get into it. I think it's going to be fun to see people bring your CD to the show. It's bizarre for me to go to places I've never been and find they're familiar with the music. I'm thankful for Christian radio and fun magazines like CCM that get the word out. … What's next? You are going on tour with Article One?
Shane: That's right, we are working on that right now, and we have several dates lined up. That's going to be a fun tour. Those guys are incredible. We have met them several times. They have great hearts; they fit with the stuff we want to do. We are doing some conference things, leading praise & worship. So yes, 2009 is starting with a bang, and we are looking forward to getting on the road.
Brandon: I can't imagine being away from your family. Do you get to bring them on the road?
Shane: Yes, we do, depending on the time of year—summer camps and stuff like that. Some of these long stretches, usually not. And most of the guys who are married, even aside from me, have wives that "get it." Our bass player's wife does our sound. Everybody has their own unique situation. It gets tough if we do too long of a stretch. Every now and then it's three to four weeks without coming home.
Brandon: Your record comes out January 27, and you'll be out on the road! So I'm sure we are all looking forward to seeing what happens with Julian Drive. Tell us how we can find out more info on you guys.
Shane: You can go to our website (juliandrive.com) or our MySpace, (myspace.com/juliandrive).
Brandon: Well, Happy New Year! Here's to 2009 being a great year for you guys! Hopefully I will get to see you in person soon. If not, I will see you in April for GMA!
Shane: Yes, we will be there! Thanks!

Venice, FL (PRWEB) December 06, 2012
In addition to the usual Thanksgiving contributions, a Sarasota food bank is receiving some creative donations this holiday season, compliments of Omega3 Innovations, creator of the Omega Cookie.
For every box of Omega Cookies sold at the Sarasota Farmer's Market and every Facebook "like" the company receives this month, Omega3 Innovations is donating $1 to All Faiths Food Bank, according to Dr. Anne-Marie Chalmers, co-founder of the Venice-based biotech company.
"I'm impressed with the nutrition courses that All Faiths gives to young families," Chalmers said. "They not only provide food for the hungry, but they teach how to make inexpensive, healthy and good-tasting meals. That's very much in line with our mission, too."
Omega3 Innovations – a family-owned company that produces healthy oatmeal-based cookies and dark chocolate truffles rich in omega-3 fish oil, as well as fresh-tasting liquid fish oil – is hoping to help provide food to those who need it most by working with All Faiths Food Bank.
Previously, the company donated Omega Cookies directly to All Faiths Food Bank to not only help feed hungry people, but also provide them with nutritious food, Chalmers said.
With the help of nearly 200 partner agencies and programs, All Faiths Food Bank gathers and distributes more than 88,000 meals weekly in Sarasota and Desoto counties, according to All Faiths Executive Director Sandra Frank.
"Every day, thousands of people in southwest Florida struggle with hunger," Frank said. "Statistics indicate that the face of hunger has changed with unemployment being the stronger predictor of food insecurity. Today, the hungry also include hard-working adults, children and seniors who simply cannot make ends meet and are forced to go without food for several meals, or even days."
Chalmers said she hopes her company's donations will help the food bank provide more food for the hungry this holiday season than ever before.
"All Faiths does so much for our community, and this year they desperately need more resources."

Help Send a Serious Eats Contributor to the White House!
You know Leah Douglas from her two weekly columns here (In Food Policy This Week and Serious Reads) but blogging is just one of many food-related activities for Leah. As an undergrad at Brown University, she's studying agriculture and food policy and is an active campus leader in the Brown Market Shares Program, a CSA initiative that serves about 1,000 Brown students, staff, and faculty.
BMSP brings weekly shares of sustainably-grown produce, fruit, dairy, and bread to the Brown community, the majority of which is sourced from within a 20-mile radius of campus. The program provides one quarter of their shares at reduced cost because they believe that healthy, sustainable food should be available to all members of the community. BMSP is entirely student-led, and from 2010 to 2012 they've invested about $250,000 in the local agricultural economy.
So why are we telling you all this? Last week Leah received a surprise phone call from the Office of Public Engagement at the White House. That's right, the White House called Leah. She assumed it was fake, but the nice man on the other end assured her it wasn't—BMSP had been selected from thousands of applicants as one of 15 finalists for the Campus Champions of Change Challenge. Sponsored by the White House, this contest recognizes students doing good work on college campuses around the country.
So here's where you come in. Until March 3, there is a public vote to determine the top five finalists in the Challenge, who will all be recognized in a public ceremony at the White House!
"I never imagined that Market Shares would receive recognition at the national level—we started out so small just four years ago, and it would be incredibly affirming for our program and our community to make it to Washington. Your support and vote would be so much appreciated!" says Leah.
So let's help fellow SE'r Leah out!
Vote for the Brown Market Shares Program here >>

This page describes more details of the public Gallium3D interface.
Gallium3D headers
The p_context.h, p_screen.h and p_winsys.h are described on the main Gallium3D page.
The p_state.h header defines all the state objects (such as polygon rasterization options, blend modes, etc) and resources (drawing surfaces, textures, memory buffers). The pipe interface uses "constant state" objects. That is, state objects are created once and are immutable. State objects are put into effect by binding them. This allows Gallium3D drivers to create corresponding hardware state objects which can be quickly handled.
The p_defines.h header defines numerous constants and tokens (blend modes, texture wrap modes, surface formats, etc.
The p_winsys.h header defines the window system and OS facilities which Gallium3D drivers rely upon. For example, memory allocation is typically a service the OS provides while window size/position information is provided by the window system. Pipe drivers use the winsys interface to handle these things.
The p_format.h header defines all supported texture and drawing surface formats, as well as functions for querying format attributes (like number of components, bits/component, etc)
Interface Conventions
When an object (such as a buffer, or texture, etc) is passed to the Gallium3D interface, the driver will copy or keep a reference to the object allowing the caller to free or dereference the object.
For example, after a pipe_shader_state has been passed to pipe->create_fs_state(), the shader can be freed because the driver will have copied the shader if needed.
Similarly for textures, vertex buffers, etc.
Textures and Drawing Surfaces
Drawing surfaces are actually allocated as textures. After a texture is created, a "surface view" can be created. A surface view provides 2D access to a texture mipmap level, cube face, or 3D texture slice.
The surface view can be used as a drawing target, or it may be mapped into user space for direct access.
If the Gallium hardware driver organizes textures in a tiled or twiddled layout, creating and mapping a surface view will "linearize" the memory into a normal raster layout. After the surface is unmapped, the linear data will be retiled/retwiddled into the hardware-specific format.

Timely information about the Newtown tragedy would answer a horrified public's questions about murders of 27 people Dec. 14. It could also better guide the legislature as it makes policy choices in reaction to the crime.
Yet so far, lawmakers, the judiciary and law enforcement are doing the opposite of acting with more openness. Instead, they are clamping down. Their default reaction regarding what happened in Newtown is to use more secrecy, not less.
This trend must stop.
Awful as the details are, secrecy is a mistake. It ignites public worry. It prevents ordinary people who might know critical details from becoming law enforcement allies. Worse, secrecy feeds into the whispers of those conspiracy theorists who believe that the police have something to hide. It plays into the motives of the complete lunatics who spread the slander that this slaughter somehow never happened.
Excessive Secrecy
The closed-door approach started early.
After the murders, Danbury State's Attorney Stephen J. Sedensky asked Superior Court Judge John Blawie to seal five warrant applications and affidavits in the Newtown case for 90 days. Judge Blawie did. The warrants requested permission to search the home of murderer Adam Lanza and to search the car the shooter used to drive to Sandy Hook Elementary School.
In January, several newspapers asked that the warrants be opened, a reasonable request.
Mr. Sedensky's letter to the court asked that the warrants be sealed because "the investigation ... is still continuing and no arrests have been made and none are currently anticipated, but have not been ruled out."
The right of the public to see documents filed in court is always counterbalanced with a suspect's right to a fair trial. Yet in this case, the suspect is dead.
There's also an understandable reluctance to reveal details of a police investigation before a crime is solved. Again, with the shooter dead, it's hard to believe that information on a warrant application would jeopardize anything.
When a judge takes the drastic step of keeping information from the public, people deserve a reasoned explanation. Closing records by fiat is not merely high-handed. It erodes the public's faith in the Judicial Branch.
Superior Court Judge John F. Blawie didn't bother to spell out his decision to seal the warrants other than writing that "the state's interest in continuing nondisclosure substantially outweighs any right to public disclosure at this time."
That's not a reason. That's a conclusion.
The records should be released sooner, not later.

Click here to watch our video of Peter taking us through his rig, then click here to watch him demo''ing his custom Martin.
We recently had the chance to chill with Mayer backstage at a Buffett show, where he chatted gear and gigs with us before taking us through his entire rig (see the video).
You play with some killer musicians, man. I imagine that has an effect on your own approach as a player.
It does. I've scaled back my ego—I say that in kind of a funny but humble way. I've worked with Weckl and different people where it's all about chops and really knowing your neck and all that stuff and I'm very thankful for that experience. I'll be honest with you, when I got into this band 20 years ago, there were times when they'd say, "Hey, we don't need so much on that," and, "You can lay off there." And I kept trying to just push, push.
But after awhile it starts to make sense.
I'm playing with guys like Mac [McAnally] and Jimmy [Buffett] and maturing and meeting more players like Joe Walsh. Sonny Landreth plays with us all the time. I watch him and it's like, "Oh my gosh, man! It's in the hands." It's all about the hands. But yeah, being humble was huge. I eventually learned to pick up the song verbatim as simply as I could, and sure enough out of all that I always learned something. It's almost like you can't be too wise about this stuff, you've got to go and be humble and pick up the new lesson. It may be a simple thing like—oh, you can bend that note that way—which makes this little emotional thing come out. That's a beautiful thing. This gig has been great for me for that.
What's your approach to solos? Anyone who has tried to learn the second solo to "Bama Breeze" has got to wonder how you do it. How do you come up with that stuff?
I don't know, but thank you very much. It probably has a lot to do with the way I practice. I do this thing where I try not to play through my fingers but play from my heart or play from my ears. I force myself to sing what I'm playing so I can hear things in different ways. It's all about identifying and getting past limitations— forcing myself to learn in different ways. Sometimes I just tape myself singing and then learn what I sang that way. You're always guaranteed to get something fresh and it never sounds like someone else's solo.

Personal Checkbook Advantage 1.20
Personal Checkbook Advantage works just like a checkbook register.
Personal Checkbook Advantage works just like a checkbook register. It was developed as an alternative to other freeware that just didn't quite cut it. Also, many people do not write checks any more and the checkbook register has become cumbersome having to handwrite all transactions. This application is user-friendly and designed to quickly add transactions into your register. It also helps you balance your register with your bank statement. No more adding up what hasn't been cleared. The Register Screen shows you the "uncleared bank balance". As a plus, the application keeps track of spending habits by setting categories to each transaction.

BUFFALO, N.Y., April 3 (UPI) -- Derek Roy's second goal of the game, at 3:29 into overtime, capped a furious Buffalo rally Tuesday that gave the Sabres a 6-5 win over Toronto.
Buffalo, battling for the eighth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, trailed 3-0 at the end of the first period and 4-2 early in the final frame. The Sabres kept their post-season hopes alive by scoring the final three goals, including Jordan Leopold's game-tying tally during a wild scrum in front of the net with 1:53 left in regulation.
Buffalo was on a 4-on-3 power play in extra time when Roy scored the winner on the rebound of a Thomas Vanek shot.
Ryan Miller recorded 20 stops as the Sabres pulled even with the idle Washington Capitals for the eighth spot with two games remaining.
Tyler Bozak finished with two goals and an assist and Ben Scrivens turned aside 39-of-45 shots for the Maple Leafs.

FORT MEADE, Md. (AP) — A military judge cleared the way Wednesday for a member of the team that raided Osama bin Laden's compound to testify at the trial of an Army private charged in a massive leak of U.S. secrets to the Wikileaks website.
Col. Denise Lind ruled for the prosecution during a court-martial pretrial hearing for Pfc. Bradley Manning at Fort Meade, near Baltimore.
Prosecutors say the witness, presumably a Navy SEAL, collected digital evidence showing that the al-Qaeda leader requested and received from an associate some of the documents Manning has acknowledged sending to WikiLeaks.
Defense attorneys had argued that proof of receipt wasn't relevant to whether Manning aided the enemy, the most serious charge he faces, punishable by life imprisonment.
The judge disagreed.
"The government must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the intelligence is given to and received by the enemy," Lind said.
The ruling means prosecutors can call the witness during the "merits," or main, phase of the trial. They otherwise could have used his testimony only for sentencing purposes.
The witness has been publicly identified only as "John Doe" and as a Defense Department "operator," a designation given to SEALs. Prosecutors say he participated with SEAL Team Six in their May 2011 assault on the compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan, in which the terrorist leader was killed. His testimony would help establish a chain of custody for the evidence from its recovery to its analysis by a computer expert.
Judge Lind is weighing options for protecting the witness' identity. They could include moving the trial to a secure location to hear his testimony, or having him wear a disguise.
Lind also must decide what limits to place on any defense cross-examination of John Doe, as well as three other unidentified "special witnesses," to protect national security.
Earlier Wednesday, Lind denied a government motion seeking to lower the bar for convicting Manning of violating the federal Espionage Act. He is charged with eight counts of that offense. Lind ruled, contrary to the motion, that prosecutors must prove Manning had reason to believe that the information he leaked could hurt the United States or help a foreign nation.
Lind later released a written copy of the ruling to reporters. It was the first time since she got the case in February 2012 that she has made a written ruling publicly available. The lack of contemporaneous public access to rulings and motions is being challenged in the military appeals courts by the Center for Constitutional Rights, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange and several left-leaning pundits and publications, with support from 30 news organizations, including The Associated Press.
In February, the military began releasing Lind's older rulings following numerous Freedom of Information Act requests. Copies of the order released Tuesday were distributed by a military attorney who said Lind released it partly because neither the prosecution nor the defense objected.
The hearing was expected to end Wednesday.
Manning pleaded guilty in February to lesser versions of some of the 22 charges he faces. Prosecutors have said they still intend to prove him guilty of the all the original charges.
His trial is scheduled to start June 3 at Fort Meade. It could last for 12 weeks.
The 25-year-old native of Crescent, Okla., is accused of sending hundreds of thousands of Iraq and Afghanistan battlefield reports, State Department diplomatic cables, other classified records and two battlefield video clips to WikiLeaks in 2009 and 2010 while working as an intelligence analyst in Baghdad.
In a statement he read aloud in court Feb. 28, Manning said he sent the material to the anti-secrecy website to expose the American military's "bloodlust" and disregard for human life in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Framing Fome-Cor® & Gator™ Products
Choose your framing materials wisely. Fome-Cor® and Gator™ show you the way.
The term "framing" can have a very broad definition as any art that is displayed "in" or "out" of a frame. For this information we are limiting framing to art placed in a frame. For non-framed art the information for mounting should suffice.
Framing information is provided for the products listed below. Products marked with an "*" do not have a logical application in framing.

|Fome-Cor® Board
|Specialty Products
|Specialty Products
|Acid-Free Fome-Cor® Board
|Heat-Activated Fome-Cor® Board
|Gatorplast® - *
|Self-Adhesive Fome-Cor® Board
|Gatorblanks® - *
|JetPrint Board™
Fome-Cor® Products:
Fome-Cor products come in 4 thicknesses (1/8", 3/16", 1/4" and 3/8"). With the wide range of thicknesses you can select the product to fit in frame "rabbits". See Technical Bulletins on mounting, laminating or cutting for additional information suitable for general framing.
Conservation Framing and Archival Mounting
For conservation framing or Archival Mounting methods you would utilize Acid-Free Fome-Cor®. Acid Free Fome-Cor® mounting board combines the finest chemical, optical and mechanical properties available in a mounting board. Acid free has been developed for mounting virtually all types of artwork and valued objects including prints, photos, maps, and mementos. Acid Free is the substrate of choice when you desire long term preservation of the graphic.
Fome-Cor recognized the importance of quality for the conservation mounter. In the early eighties, Fome-Cor pioneered the acid free mounting board by developing a product that met the Barrow Institute standard for acid free board. Working with the latest information and the Library of Congress standards for archival boards to be used for matting and mounting, Fome-Cor again leads the industry. Acid Free Fome-Cor board meets the highest standards in chemical, optical and mechanical properties.
- 100% High Alpha Cellulose, virgin pulp free from ground wood and/or post consumer materials (ASTM D1030, X5)
- Contains no lignin (TAPPI 236cm-85 KAPPA #5 or less)
- Free from metallic impurities (TAPPI 266)
- Free from residual impurities such as bleach, sulfur or peroxide (TAPPI T406cm-88)
- pH value of 7.5 - 9.5 buffered with 3 - 5% calcium carbonate reserve (ASTM IT9.2-191, Sec.5.2)
- Contains no rosin or alum rosin sizing (ASTM D549-88)
- Has passed the Photographic Activity Test (ANSI I9.16.1994) conducted by Image Permenance Inst.
- Is stable under ultraviolet light (TAPPI 452 om-87)
- The color will not rub or otherwise deteriorate
Acid Free Fome-Cor can be successfully used as a mounting substrate for all types of mounting including: dry mounting, wet mounting, spray mounting, pressure sensitive tissues and hinge mounting.
Dry Mounting
The dry mounting adhesive tissue should be an acid free variety. Contact the major adhesive manufacturers for recommendations. Dry mounting can be done using either a heated vacuum press or a mechanical press. Mounting temperature should not exceed 190 F and typical mounting times are 2 to 3 minutes. Be sure to follow the adhesive supplier's recommendations. After dry mounting, the mount should be allowed to cool under weights or glass.
Wet Mounting
Select a pH neutral, water based adhesive designed for mounting. Lightly coat the Fome-Cor with a light, uniform layer of adhesive. Excessive adhesive will tend to squeeze out and contaminate the print in addition the excess water may cause bowing of the Fome-Cor. Apply the print. Carefully work out air bubbles from the center to the edges. Be sure to keep the adhesive away from the face of the art. Place in a vacuum press or under weights and allow to fully dry.
Spray Mounting
Select a spray mounting adhesive that is safe to use with polystyrene and the art to be mounted. Solvent based adhesives should be used with caution. Be sure to check the adhesive manufacturer's recommendation. Spray the board with a uniform coating of adhesive. Leave the adhesive exposed to air for the recommended "open time". This allows the solvent to escape facilitating bonding and preventing solvent attack of the foam. Apply the art and mount using a vacuum press or under weights until the adhesive is completely dried.
Pressure Sensitive Film Mounting
Artwork can be mounted with two sided, pressure sensitive adhesive film mountings. These materials are two sided tapes that can be applied either by hand or with roller nip laminators. Hand mounting can be difficult with larger pieces and is not commonly done. For small works of art by hand, apply the adhesive film to the Fome-Cor beginning at one edge and unroll the film to the other edge. Raise the release liner on one edge and align the print with the edge of the Fome-Cor. Adhere the print while removing the release liner. For a roller nip laminator, set nips about 15 mils less than the thickness of the board and use a speed of 2 1/2 to 5 ft. per minute.
Conservation framing or archival mounting usually uses hinge mounting. Other mounting techniques introduce three problems:
- The artwork is in contact with materials other than conservation grade mount board (some adhesives will attack the art);
- Changes in environmental conditions cause the art to expand and contract differently than the substrate and cracking of the art results; and,
- The adhesive is an additional material to be removed from the art when remounting.
Most conservators recommend that artwork be hinge mounted with Japanese paper and starch paper of similar materials. Matboards, particularly those in contact with the art, should meet the Library of Congress specifications. Art must never be mounted in contact with the glass. If long term preservation is the goal, only UV protection glass should be used. Finally, it is a good practice to seal the back of the frame with a dust cover or barrier paper.
In order to maintain the high quality mounting done by conservation framers, the consumer must observe caution with the mounted art. For best results, archival quality artwork should not be displayed in areas of high humidity or widely fluctuation humidity or temperature. High pollution or soot exposure (near candles, etc.) should be avoided. The artwork should be periodically inspected to insure it is not being attacked by insects or other environmental conditions. Many conservators recommend periodic remounting.
Gator Products:
Gatorfoam and GatorLite are well suited for framing applications. The durable hard surface of these manmade wood fiber faced products provides extra protection from surface damage.
Conservation Framing and Archival Mounting
Gatorfoam or GatorLite is a combination of polystyrene and a polymeric impregnated veneer. Because of its unique composition, there are no conservation standards that specifically apply to these products. Gatorfoam, white and natural kraft faced, have successfully passed the Photoactivity Test conducted by the Image Permenance Institute of the Rochester Institute of Technology.
Conservation mounting requires special materials to ensure that the art to be preserved will remain undamaged in the future. Many major museums have successfully used Gatorfoam to mount exhibits for many years.
Testing at both room temperature and 150 degrees F resulted in out gassing at the parts per million range only. The base paper used in Gatorfoam and GatorLite are in the acidic range, however, the saturation process reduces the mobility of the acid. The average pH of the finished Luxcell® facers is 6.5 – 7.0 pH. For long term storage, protection should be provided from ultra-violet light. (Caution: No long term results are available, use with artifacts of metal composition could have a chloride reaction.)

When "King of Cocaine" producers passed on John Leguizamo for the coveted role of Pablo Escobar, a powerful Colombian drug lord, the 49-year-old actor refused give up.
"The Moulin Rouge" star was born in Colombia, and felt he was made for the part. So when producers turned him down multiple times, Leguizamo went out and bought himself $15,000 worth of prosthetics and a fat suit so he'd look just like the hefty Escobar.
Leguizamo's anonymous audition tape finally caught the attention of Relativity Media execs who asked about the Escobar doppleganger. He got the part soon after.
The lesson here?
"Give it all u got every time!" Leguizamo tweeted Monday.
The actor had previously tweeted about his transformation, showing off before and after Vine's and photos of himself in the makeup chair.
Here he is as Escobar:

Used for the sterilization of low acid foods, UHT treatment involves heating the product to over 135 °C. It destroys all microorganisms, making the end product suitable for ambient distribution.
Looking for a quality heating solution that makes smart business sense? Let us find your match.Read more about heating solutions
UHT treatment requires both a sterilizer and an aseptic unit (for packaging the product). It is used for low acid (above pH 4.6) products such as UHT milk, UHT flavoured milk, UHT creams, soya milk and other dairy alternatives. The same process is also used to sterilize prepared food, such as soups, sauces, desserts, tomato and fruit preparations, and baby food.
The birth of high heat treatment and canning as a means of preserving food began in France in the early 1800s. By 1839, tin-coated steel containers were widely in use. In the 1960s, building on this early food conservation technology, Tetra Pak pioneered its own continuous UHT process and aseptic packaging systems, and so kick-started the growth of the UHT milk segment.
In UHT treatment, the goal is to maximise the destruction of microorganisms while minimising the chemical changes in the product. That means finding the optimal combination of temperature and processing time for different types of food.
Tetra Pak offers two alternative methods of UHT treatment: direct or indirect. In direct UHT heating, steam is briefly injected into the product, and this is rapidly followed by flash cooling. The brevity of the treatment makes it possible to achieve very high product quality.
However, the process requires relatively high energy consumption compared to indirect UHT treatment. With indirect heating, the product does not come into direct contact with the heat source, but is instead heated using heat exchangers. What makes this method so cost-effective is that most of the heat energy can be recovered.
Tetra Pak® Indirect UHT unit is a processing unit for highly efficient, continuous ultra-high temperature treatment of dairy products.
Tetra Pak® Indirect UHT unit is a processing unit offering smarter and smoother operation for ultra-high temperature treatment of dairy products.
Tetra Therm® Aseptic VTIS has long represented state-of-the-art direct UHT processing of premium quality, aseptic products from white milk to viscous ice cream mix.
Continuous aseptic processing unit for indirect UHT treatment.
Continuous, gentle indirect UHT treatment unit with scraped surface heat exchanger for viscous products, with or without particles, that keeps sensitive product in motion.

A primate skull has been discovered in the Caribbean that looks like nothing ever seen before. Except a monkey from 16 million years ago. Why was such an ancient species roaming the Caribbean just a few thousand years ago?
The monkey skull was discovered on the island of Hispaniola, which is comprised of Haiti and the Dominican Republic. It's the first well-preserved skull ever found on the island, and it shows clear links to modern monkeys found in Central and South America. Even so, despite its young age – it's only a few thousand years old – its brain case is incredibly unusual, and the closest resemblance can be found in a species of Argentinean monkey that died out some 16 million years ago.
This extreme primitiveness is a known feature of primates found in isolate island environments, with perhaps the most spectacular example of this being the lemurs of Madagascar. Lemurs have helped us understand what its ancient cousins on the African continent would have looked like, and the hope is that further study of this relatively recent Hispaniola monkey can shed similar light on the South and Central American monkeys from millions of years ago.
Such unusual features is nothing new for the extinct monkeys of the Caribbean. The Jamaican monkey Xenothrix is a lot like the Madagascan Aye-aye, which both have rat-like incisors and a long finger used to extract insects from bark. The arms and legs of the Cuban monkey Paralouatta indicate the animal spent part of its life on the ground instead of in the forest canopy. That behavior is found in no other New World monkeys.
This new monkey skull overturns existing theories that a single monkey species accidentally came to the Caribbean and gave rise to all subsequent species on the islands. This new skull is so different from even those previously observed that it would have to come from a different monkey species entirely, which complicates the picture of how monkeys got to the Caribbean in the first place.
Indeed, it once seemed so unlikely that monkeys could have even reached the Caribbean that paleontologists didn't generally accept their existence there until 1952, when irrefutable evidence emerged. There appears to be some geological evidence to support the existence of a land bridge, dubbed Gaarlandia, that would have linked the region with the rest of the Americas some 33 to 35 million years ago.

The subject of water will be discussed for the very first time in a place so close to water at the 5th World Water Forum. About twenty thousand participants are expected at this 5th Forum, which is to be hosted by Istanbul. It is the first time that the Congress and Cultural Centre at Sütlüce, and the Feshane facility on the other side of the Golden Horn will be used for such a purpose.There will be regular ferry boat services to provide access to these two venues from the city centre, and from the opposite side of the Golden Horn. A passenger bridge will allow you to cross from Sütlüce to Feshane. The Golden Horn thus provides a waterway venue for the Forum, while bridging the two conference centres on either side in accordance with the main theme of the forum "Bridging Divides for Water".
The former Sütlüce Slaughterhouse has been transformed into a modern Congress Centre containing a concert and congress hall, cinemas, exhibition and meetings facilities, a theatre and multi-storey car park. The Sütlüce Congress Centre will host the thematic, regional and political sessions during the Forum and will also fulfil the role of press centre.

Feshane, the fez (a popular type of hat in Ottoman Empire) factory of Ottoman times, will be the main registration centre. There will be regular ferry boat services from the city centre taking passengers to the waterfront in front of the building, where Forum registrations will be realised. At the same time Feshane will host the Water Fair, including many festive water-related activities such as the Learning Centre, Global Water Education Village, Citizen's Water House, Major Groups, poster presentations and also a number of the Forum's thematic sessions.

S&P Global to Buy IHS Markit for $44 Billion in 2020's Biggest Merger
By Noor Zainab Hussain (Reuters) – Data giant S&P Global Inc has agreed to buy IHS Markit Ltd in a deal worth $44 billion that will be 2020's biggest merger,...
CAIRO, Aug 31 (Reuters) – A "terrorist" staged an unsuccessful attack on a container ship passing through the Suez Canal on Saturday, in an attempt to disrupt the flow of ships through the waterway, the head of the Suez Canal Authority Mohab Memish said.
The Suez Canal is a key global shipping line which is secured by the armed forces.
"One of the terrorist elements has carried out a failed attempt to affect the movement of ships in the Suez Canal by targeting one of the passing ships, Cosco Asia," Memish said in a statement about the Panama-flagged ship.
SEE ALSO: Egypt Arrests Three After Attack On Containership In Suez Canal
"The attempt failed completely and there was no damage to the ship or the containers it carried. The situation was dealt with strictly by the armed forces," he said, adding that the traffic of ships is moving normally.
The statement did not specify what kind of attack it was but shipping sources told Reuters they heard the sound of two explosions as the ship passed through the waterway.
Egypt has faced a string of militant attacks in the lawless North Sinai region after the army, prompted by mass protests, overthrew the country's first elected Islamist President Mohamed Mursi on July 3.
More than 1,000 people, including 100 security officers, have died in protests demanding the reinstatement of Mursi. The government launched a crackdown on violence and militancy, arresting many leaders of the Muslim Brotherhood and Mursi supporters over accusations of inciting violence.
It was not immediately clear whether the attempted attack was related to the ousting of Mursi. U.S. warship the San Antonio passed through the waterway on Thursday to join other ships in the Mediterranean that could be used in any strike against Syria after a suspected chemical weapons attack.
The armed forces have issued an order to strengthen their security measures along the Suez waterway, Memish said.

FX CEO John Landgraf has sent down word from the mountains that "The Strain", a new series based on Guillermo del Toro and Chuck Hogan's vampire trilogy, will be no more than 5 seasons. The show will follow a small group of rebels trying to take down a vampire empire that has taken over the world. The reason for the 5 season limit is that the shows creators are already putting it out there that the show will end with the same finale as the books, which is good news. This combined with the solid nights sleep I got last night is really starting off the week on a good foot.
Remember Alexandra Breckenridge in the first season of "American Horror Story"? Yeah, she was the slutty maid. I know! She was my favorite too. Well good news folks, she'll be returning to the show for it's third season which is being titled "American Horror Story: Coven". No word yet on what role she'll be playing but the season is suppose to be set around a group of spooky witches... I think. Really I'm just hoping for slutty witches.
I've never seen "Akira", I don't know what it's about and Japanimation in general confuses and frightens me. Apparently a live action version of the film(?) has been kicking around for a while and now "Orphan" director Jaume Collet-Serra has been attached to the project and it's officially moving forward. I bet those whack jobs dressed up like giant robots I saw walking outside the Rosemont convention center on my way to Toby Keith's I Love This Bar and Grill are all excited about this. Or angry. I don't really understand any of this.
"House of Flying Daggers" director Zhang Yimou has officially been confirmed to be taking on the "Hunchback of Notre Dame" remake, which has also officially been confirmed I guess. Josh Brolin is set to start in the film, which is the retelling of the classic tale of Quasimodo and the main reason I grew to love Gypsies as a child. Well this story and Cher. Mostly Cher.
Good news for fans of "The Book of Eli" and "From Hell": Sibling directors The Hughes Brothers are slated to lense the live-action adaptation of Katsuhiro Otomo's graphic novel "Akira". I tap my chin worriedly, though I am intrigued by the idea. I also like Vanilla Coke, so go figure.
Thanks to the fine, opportunistic folks working behind-the-scenes at Sony Pictures, James Cameron's underwater epic "Pirahna II: The Spawning" will arrive on DVD this April. If you ever get the opportunity to procure Cameron's autograph, be sure to bring your copy of the film along for the ride. I'm sure he'll appreciate the joke.
Speaking of DVD release dates, E1 Entertainment has picked up North American distribution rights for director Fruit Chan's ambitious remake of Hideo Nakata's supernatural freakshow "Don't Look Up." The film stars Henry Thomas, and Kevin Corrigan, and Eli Roth. Yes, I said Eli Roth. Got a problem with that?


text: Alex Ross is a famous comic book artist who hails from Portland, Oregon. Educated at the American Academy of Art, he is known for his attention to detail and for painting his comic book scenes instead of drawing them. He has recently created a print of Obama as a Super Hero entitled "Time For A Change" and a print of George W. Bush, Jr. as a Super Villian entitled "Bush Sucking Democracy Dry". I really thought the prints and the vision of the artist was unique and funny all at the same time. I have always enjoyed good comic books and comic book movies so naturally this was right up my alley. I hope you all enjoy viewing these works as much as I did. Also, please note that neither one of the prints are available at our site but if you interested in purchasing one you can get them from Rupps Comics!

And the best part? Your husband doesn't have to know. It's secrety!
The clinic in question provides its female patients with Essure, a non-surgical procedure that involves inserting small metal coils into the fallopian tubes. The procedure costs around $5,000 a pop and lasts about 45 minutes. At the conclusion of the tubes' insertion, the patient is rendered permanently sterile. (Unless you're Picabo Street.)
(Aside: All this time, I've just been trying to permanently sterilize myself by standing really close to the microwave while heating up burritos, hoping the radiation would have a similar effect. So far, no dice. My ovaries are still functional, although I'm pretty sure that if I were to get pregnant now, I'd give birth to a litter of baby X-Men.)
The clinic, predictably, is catching flack for holding itself out to the public as a place for women to go to lie about something important to their partners, but the reality is that a sterilization technique that can remain secret from a woman's male partner is unfortunate but necessary. The reality is that some women don't have control over their bodies and for these women, James Bond-heist-style lunch hour sterilizations need to exist.

Chiropractic and Panic Attacks
In addition to other methods, chiropractic care can provide some relief to symptoms related to anxiety and depressive disorders.View Article

|Chiropractic Care and Injury Prevention
Some exercise- and sport-related injuries are random. Stuff happens. But most exercise- and sport-related injuries are preventable. If you're a beginner, making sure you don't do too much too soon is a major principle in injury prevention. If you're an intermediate, intermediate-advanced, or advanced exerciser or athlete, not suddenly doing way more than you're used to is another major injury prevention principle. For example, if your training runs are from 3 to 4 miles, and you've never run more than a 4-mile road race, then running a half-marathon (without additional extensive preparation) is usually a very bad idea.
Again, stuff happens, and common sense is the best method of injury prevention. Regular chiropractic care assists your overall exercise program by helping make sure that your musculoskeletal system is operating at peak efficiency. When your bones, joints, muscles, and other musculoskeletal tissues are working in harmony, the likelihood of experiencing an injury is reduced. For people who exercise and/or do sports, regular chiropractic care helps to get the most benefit out of any exercise time.
Repetitive stress injuries are typically very difficult to treat successfully. These injuries are the result of actions done repeatedly, frequently, and consistently over time. They've taken a long time to build up and, therefore, the healing process also requires a fair amount of time. Shin splints, iliotibial band syndrome, and rotator cuff syndrome are examples of common repetitive stress injuries. These problems are also known as overuse injuries. Tennis elbow is another common injury that is likely caused by repetitive stress.
Tennis elbow usually involves pain on the outer bony surface of the elbow joint (the lateral epicondyle). A variant involves pain on the inner surface of the elbow (the medial epicondyle). Regardless, tennis elbow pain interferes with many activities, not only those involving tennis and golf. Even the simple act of firmly twisting the lid on a difficult-to-open jar can cause significant pain. Driving for more than 30 minutes and prolonged keyboard activity are other examples of activities that may become quite troublesome when one is hampered by tennis elbow. Treatment usually involves rest, anti-inflammatory medications, and even injections of steroid compounds.1,2 But such treatments tend not to provide more than short-term relief. Ultimately tennis elbow may be frustrating and disheartening, as there doesn't appear to be an effective solution.
More useful treatment for repetitive stress injuries involves directly addressing the source of the problem. In the case of tennis elbow, mechanical issues in the forearm itself need to be corrected. For those whose painful elbows are in fact caused primarily by tennis or golf, focusing on sound technique will often help to provide significant relief. For example, in both sports, if lines of force generated by the arm muscles and lines of force generated by the forearm muscles cross at the elbow, significant pain is likely to develop over time. Learning how to generate parallel lines of force will help solve the problem, and such a solution may require the services of a coach.
For the rest of us, there are additional specific solutions. First, trigger points in the major forearm muscle bundles need to be treated.3 Trigger points in themselves may be very painful, and a trigger point also causes chronic fatigue in the muscle of which it is a part. When you try to use such a pre-fatigued muscle, damage to the muscle fibers and the tendon may result. Over time the involved region, such as the elbow, becomes chronically painful. Manual trigger point treatment relaxes chronic spasm and helps restore normal muscle tone. Increased blood flows to the muscle belly, and the involved muscle fibers have an opportunity to regain their normal length and to heal. The second specific solution is to use a narrow (1.5-inch thick), nonelastic elbow brace placed approximately 1 inch below the elbow. The brace will shorten the contractile length of the major forearm muscles, allowing them to achieve relative rest. The combination of trigger point therapy and appropriate use of a specific elbow brace will help to achieve long-term resolution of painful, difficult-to-treat tennis elbows.

Adopted by Convocation on June 22, 2000, effective November 1, 2000
Amendments based on the Federation of Law Societies Model Code of Professional Conduct adopted by Convocation October 24, 2013, effective October 1, 2014
Amendments current to October 24, 2019 (see Amendment History)
Rules of Professional Conduct in effect prior to October 1, 2014 (PDF)
The following resources will help lawyers understand and comply with the amended rules.
The amended Rules of Professional Conduct include a new numbering scheme that mirrors the Model Code. The former rules are divided into rules, subrules and commentaries; the amended rules are divided into chapters, sections, rules and commentaries. In addition, a new rule on integrity (Chapter 2) has been added and this has shifted the numbering of the rules up by one. For example, Chapter 3 (Relationship to Clients) is the former Rule 2 (Relationship to Clients).
The amendments are based on the Model Code of Professional Conduct adopted by the Federation of Law Societies of Canada, the national coordinating body of Canadian law societies. Law societies across Canada are adopting the Federation's Model Code in support of national mobility and to promote public confidence in a self-regulated profession with a national set of common standards for professionalism and ethical behaviour.
In October 2011, the Law Society's Professional Regulation Committee began reviewing the Model Code for the purposes of implementation and sought the comments and views of lawyers on the proposed changes between June and August 2012. The amended lawyers' Rules of Professional Conduct were approved at October 2013 Convocation.
In order to maintain consistency between the lawyer and paralegal conduct rules, the Paralegal Rules of Conduct were reviewed in relation to the Model Code and amendments approved at February 2014 Convocation.
To the extent possible, the Law Society has adopted the Model Code without modification. However, some differences exist reflecting Ontario's practice environment and experience.
The Federation has established a Standing Committee on the Model Code of Professional Conduct, which monitors professional conduct developments and changes in the law and recommends improvements to the Model Code as law societies apply the rules.
