SO the spread of Islam was stopped to allow the devils to complete their ruling after the devil had over-populated Europe. Allah allowed them to spread out. He gave a guide to lead them (Columbus) was a half original man. He guided them over, for Allah had told Moses one of his kind would guide them all the way. They realized the country would have to be built up and they also knew they couldn't build up the country for they were not strong enough. The Queen, Elizabeth, called in leaders and world travelers and wanted to know if there existed a people on the face of the planet earth who could stand the hard work and yet be submissive enough to submit to the task. John Hawkins told them "yes, there are, along the Nile, the strongest people and the most wisest that ever lived yet, they had never been lied to." The Queen appointed John Hawkins the job of getting them into the United States. This was called the "hundred year plan".
JOHN Hawkins one day sailed along the the Nile. He came among the tribe of SHABAZZ. He was flying a red flag which represented Freedom and his ship was named "Jesus" which means justice. He came among the tribe of SHABAZZ offering them peace. Our people never being lied to or mislead, accepted his greetings and him as a brother. He lived among us for 29 1/2 years, learning our customs, our way of life, our culture, our philosophy, our tongue, everything he could about us. After learning all he could he started a rumor about Alan to the west of milk and honey, a paradise, a place of plenty. Our people wee living along the Nile, the children were allowed to play with diamonds of such size as to be astonishing. They were advanced and played with algebra as a game and past time play. We gave out high mathematics and advanced astronomy. We were advanced in arts and mastered all the sciences of life. We were the most beautiful people physically one had ever laid eyes on, because we had mastered the sciences of proper eating and caring for the body. We could outwork any people on the planet and could endure hardship longer than anyone else. Yet we were the most devoted and the most submissive people. We were Allah's choice, his most beloved people. We were his perfect example for our brothers and sisters. A house of presents and holy ones. We were (Job), Allah's most faithful servants, we were royal and holy and Allah, to Whom we submitted completely was our God. We knew every inch of the planet, but when the rumor started we fell for it, prophecy had to be fulfilled, we went aboard John Hawkin's ship and this was to discuss the place and get a better picture of it and better understanding. While everyone was preparing, the hatch was closed and the ship was allowed to drift into the sea. When day light came, they were on their way. The men became aware and some were successful in going overboard but most were outnumbered and subdued.
Question: When
John Hawkins first appeared, didn't the tribe of SHABAZZ
know who he was?
Answer: Yes, many knew,
the same as when the devils went back to
Question: Why weren't the Indians or Mexicans used for the job?
Answer: They couldn't stand
the labor and they couldn't submit to such
AFTER the brothers were subdued they headed westward along the outpost that had been set-up to refill on water and fuel. When the ship pulled into these Islands, some of the slaves would escape and these populated the areas and became such places as West Indies, etc. When the ship landed in Jamestown, Virginia there were twenty-one (21) aboard. After unloading, the ship pulled out and started back for another load. The twenty-one (21) seeing the ship and realizing the great trickery that had been played on them, sang out: "give us Jesus and you can have this whole wide world". Quarters were set up for the slaves and they were treated well so they could reproduce. When the time was ripe the devil began to separate the children from their parents.
HE put the children in a compound where they were raised by devil nurses. The parents were taken and worked to death or killed on the spot to imbed fear in the babies. The devils would take a pregnant mother and carry her before a stake, before the father and he would have to witness his pregnant wife being split open and the baby and her burned. This is to put fear in the very nature of the seed the father carries. The older heads were killed out, so that they would not teach the children the teachings of their fore parents, the mother's tongue, which is taught to us by our parents. As the saying goes, "the hand that rocks the cradle, rules the world". Why? Because the mothers teach the children. The mothers are the ones to tell or teach the children about our great history and culture.
IN the compound, the children were raised by devils and when they cried out into the night for their mothers the sugar tits were put into their mouths. The hog fat was rubbed into the mole of their head, to freeze the brain. This filthy lard seeping through the thin tissue to clog up the function of the brains. The trichinosis worms once entering the different cavities, reproduces so fast, it soon fills up the cavity and has to penetrate the tissue and find another cavity. They protect themselves by enclosing themselves in a hard shield like enclosing. The desire would come to them, the urge to be comforted by their parents, but their parents were not to be found. They felt the burning urge to return home, but they didn't know where home was. They felt the urge to speak their original tongue but what that was they didn't know. These feelings grew with them but there was noone to explain these feelings to them. He knew something was drastically wrong and felt something was missing, but what he didn't know, he couldn't put his fingers on it. They (the devils) spit in the food or relieved themselves in it. They herded them like animals. they destroyed all family life among them and for 64 years this went on 1555 to 1619. Then the process was completed. Meanwhile, they (the devil) went to southern Africa and used tricknology on our brothers, turning them against each other, made them destroy their way of life, steal, kill and rob. The devils gave them strong drinks. They brought these over in 1614. Conquered and twisted mentally, we were lost and ragged. These they brought over in 1916. The name "Negro" was given to them after the process because they (the devil) said, "what shall we call these things?" They were the "walking dead". Their name was given accordingly, it fits. They stayed in slavery for three hundred and ten (310) years, building up the country. They took their bare hands and joined the two (2) oceans. Every cross tie on the railroad is the burnt out body of a so-called Negro.
Question: Why didn't the so-called Negro revolt, like hate?
The Negro, so-called, were like a cub lion captured when still a baby
and taught to do tricks. The so-called Negroes are likewise taught,
they, like the lion babies do tricks and carry out biddings for the devil.
They, like the lion, do not realize their great strength and that they
the stronger of the two. When they come into knowledge of self they
will start things rolling, for they have awakened to find even their
brother slack on the job.
Question: What do you mean slack on the job?
Meaning they are teaching Allah's truth in an apologetic manner, which
is wrong. Allah does not need anyone to feel ashamed to spread his
teachings. If you are not man enough to teach it then don't stand
in the
way, but step aside and make room for a man who is not afraid.
When all the hard labor had been done and the country was in a position
to go for self, then the problem came up of what to do with the slaves.
They wanted to send them back to Africa. Abraham Lincoln is one who
went so far as to send a ship load as a trial, but they died off so fast,
he had to return them to the United states. During the Civil war
the leaders got their heads together and agreed the slaves were to be free,
but only out of physical slavery into mental slavery, which is worst.
The weapon prepared to do the job was a special weapon, fixed for this
purpose alone, which is called the "Holy Bible". The Bible is a book
prepared under the guidance of "King James". The book was fixed in
1611. The devils had it for 250 years before giving it to the so-called
Negroes, who had it for only 90 years. The slaves were set free,
off from the white district and the smart so-called negroes were given
the Bible and taught how to read and ordain to enslave the minds of His
people and keep them there. When they were so-called free, there
was no where for them to go, nor did they have anything to call their own,
family life did not exist. So they started from nothing and worked
up. In 1914 the devils time was up, 6,000 years. And the sign that
was to let them know their time was up would be as Jesus said: "Dark
clouds would cover the land", means troubles, famine and earthquakes.
In 1914, the whole European world became involved in "war". There
were wars and rumors of wars, plagues and famines; Earthquakes death and
IN 1910, Allah, being a world traveler, came to these shores. He went to Africa and learned the language of the birds, he extracted the language of the people of mars. He came to South America, Japan, India, Alaska and other places a world traveler would. He could quote 150,000 years of history from memory, write 10 languages and speak 16. As it was mentioned in "We seek a City", he had searched the entire universe looking for this heaven that the devil speaks of in Christianity. He came in 1930, July 4, as mentioned in Ezekiel 1st Chapter, 1st verse. He came without observation, for He had said He would come for His people and He stepped down off His throne and come into the bottomless pit (HELL) for His people.
Question: Why didn't He send His servants to get us?
Answer: Because he told
Abraham: "Your seed shall be taken into a land of
strangers, a land that is not theirs and shall serve them 400 years and
he that your seed shall serve, "I" shall judge. As it has been stated
Abraham God asked Allah to allow him to live and go and bring them
home. But Allah refused his request, because they were to be
punished by none other than Him. He is the Lord of All the Worlds.
Allah has said even though they seem as endurable as the mountains,
"I shall bring them down to hell..."

Lifestyle and home remedies
By Mayo Clinic staffHome treatment isn't sufficient treatment for heatstroke. If you have signs or symptoms of heatstroke, seek emergency medical help. Others should take steps to cool you off while waiting for emergency help to arrive.
If you notice signs of heat-related illness before any noticeable signs or symptoms of heatstroke appear, take action to lower your body temperature and prevent your condition from progressing to heatstroke. In a lesser heat emergency, such as heat cramps or heat exhaustion, the following steps may be sufficient to lower your body temperature:
- Get to a shady or air-conditioned place. Remaining in the heat will worsen your condition. If you don't have air conditioning at home, go someplace that is air-conditioned, such as the mall, movie theatre or public library.
- Cool off with damp sheets and a fan. If you're with someone who's experiencing heat-related symptoms, cool the person by covering him or her with damp sheets or by spraying with cool water. Direct air onto the person with a fan.
- Take a cool shower or bath. If you're outdoors and nowhere near shelter, soaking in a cool pond or stream also can help bring your temperature down.
- Rehydrate. Keep in mind that the symptoms of heat-related illnesses are caused not only when you become dehydrated but also when you lose salt through sweating. Some sports drinks will replenish both water and salt. The amount you'll need to drink to rehydrate varies from person to person, so sip slowly and call your doctor if you're concerned. And, if you're on a low-sodium diet, be sure to check with your doctor before having drinks with a high salt content.
- Don't drink beverages with alcohol to rehydrate. These drinks may interfere with your body's ability to control your temperature.

Tracking customer activity on social media is a best practice these days (for most industries) and the technology to enable that effort is becoming increasingly accessible and affordable for companies of all sizes.
But at a higher level, what this trend speaks to is the need for companies to shift their mindset to be able to connect with the younger generations of buyers who will be key to their future prospects. Hearing their 'voices' The best solutions these days marry the traditional with the new — creating a single customer view (SCV) which captures behavior on traditional platforms along with activity on new media.
The ability to capture but differentiate activity on different platforms represents a key capability — allowing each form of customer voice to be afforded its own treatment. This implementation for the cruise industry provides a strong example of how the system should work.

Minnesota Voted NO. Thank you!
Lots of graphics making an appearance on Facebook today! While this one looks like any other orange and blue image, when you look closer, you see the true power of this graphic. The orange background is made up of real Minnesotans that have fought so hard to defeat this mean-spirited amendment.
We worked side-by-side. We told our stories. We voted.
And together, we helped Minnesota Vote NO.
The morning after the marriage amendment vote
A powerful piece from MinnPost where Erin Keyes shares her personal story which includes a partner of eight years, the adoption of a child, buying a house and even raising a dog.
Recently, she was asked what it would feel like if the mean-spirited marriage amendment were to pass:
It seemed like a silly question at the time. But the truth is, I hadn't really let myself think about it yet. In that moment, with the question hanging in the air, I felt it: an almost literal punch to the gut. Airless lungs, stinging eyes, a rock rising in my throat. For a moment.
If this amendment passes — after all the work, the money, the hard questions asked and answered, the risks taken, the eyes opened, the stories shared — it will be a moment of profound and visceral sadness for me, my partner, and for many in our state. It will mean that the essential commitments, needs, and realities of our family — the same as any two-parent family — are not recognized by over half of our fellow voting citizens.
Keyes continues with her story and reminds readers that no matter the outcome of this vote, she and her partner still won't have any rights under the law. However, if this were to pass, voters would be letting Keyes – and all other committed same-sex couples in Minnesota – know that they are "less than" opposite sex couples and that rights wouldn't be coming anytime soon.
Be sure to check out Keyes letter in its entirety. It's well worth the read and is a tremendous reminder why we are fighting so hard in Minnesota.
Thank you, Erin, for sharing your personal story. Letters and stories like yours are changing history every single day.
Real Minnesota families tell their story
Check out the above video to hear three stories from real Minnesotans that would be hurt if this mean-spirited marriage amendment passes in November.
This is the second video in a four-part series. According to the YouTube description:
The series is produced in association with The Four, a social media campaign to support marriage equality in Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, and Washington State. Learn more and get involved at http://TheFour.com.
This amendment impacts real Minnesotans, real families. With just a little over 20 days to go until the election, please don't stop sharing your stories and reminding those around you – coworkers, neighbors, family and friends – why voting NO is important to you.
Maureen Walsh shares her story
In March, I posted about the importance of personal stories and shared a couple examples. One of those stories was from Maureen Walsh and how she spoke to the Washington State House of Representatives about marriage equality in Washington State. Tonight, I had the chance to watch her remarks via YouTube and I'm so glad I spent the 4 minutes to watch to this 51-year-old GOP legislator who voted for same-sex marriage.
Take a couple minutes now to watch the video. The power of stories change hearts and minds, Ms. Walsh's story is proof of that.
Equality for Minnesota Video
This is one of the first videos I've seen supporting marriage equality in Minnesota. It's a simple video, 2 minutes in length, that interjects wedding vows with video clips of real Minnesotans that love each other. Very nicely done.
For Better, For Worse, For All. Love is Love.
Minnesota Post: Power of Messaging
I've got to say, this MinnPost article is one of the best I've read in a long time. The author, Beth Hawkins, does a great job exploring the importance of messaging in amendment battles. She also includes several examples of amendment advertisements within the story. Over the next week, I'll dig into some of the examples she provides in the article, along with others available online. It's fascinating to think about what resonates with voters.
It's also fascinating to learn more about the in-depth studies that were done after the Prop 8 loss in California. As time allows, I'll do some digging into the studies and share some of those learnings on this blog as well.
We're going to be seeing a lot of ads (TV, online, print) as both sides pour a lot of money into Minnesota targeting those voters in the middle. I'm hopeful that in sharing ads (from both sides) readers will be armed with responses when we see similar ads start to spring up here.
Oh, and Beth Hawkins, consider me a fan. ;)
Personal Stories
Earlier today, I posted an article on how the strategy for defeating marriage amendments is changing by the telling of personal stories. Here is a great article that talks about how personal stories have had an impact on both democrats and republicans.
- New Jersey Senator, Republican Diane Allen was one of two Republicans who voted for marriage equality due to the stories she heard with anti-bullying legislation
- Washington Governor, Democrat, Chris Gregoire publicly backed a same-sex marriage bill "after years of being torn between her Catholic faith and a commitment to equality." Her endorsement helped pass the bill
- Maryland Delegate Wade Kach, conservative, shared how he was moved by the story of a pastor and his partner who had fought cancer only to have it return; the connection and support they shared for each other had impacted his vote
- House of Representatives, Republican, Maureen Walsh spoke about how one day she wants to see her lesbian daughter get married. Walsh received an outpouring of support, but it was this story that made an impact on her:
"My daughter got a text from a young girl after I gave my speech that said, 'Will you please thank your mother? My mother hasn't talked to me for three years since I came out to her. My mom called me and told me she loved me tonight,'" Walsh said.
In all of these cases, personal stories changed hearts and minds. This year, in Minnesota, let's ensure our personal stories do the same thing. I know we can defeat this thing – because we're the friends, family, co-workers and neighbors of those who will vote this NOvember. We can do this, but only if we do it together.
Strategies for Defeating the Amendment
Great article that talks about how marriage amendment opponents have changed their strategies over the past couple of years. Previously, there was a lot of focus on rights and benefits. However, the Times reports that over the past four years, more emphasis has been placed on family and love for good reason.
- While rights and benefits are absolutely important, those issues don't resonate with voters.
- At the end of the day, the act of marriage is all about love and sharing the commitment with another person.
The latter message puts a face on "gay marriage" and humanizes the issue. When you think about your gay neighbor, co-worker or brother, you start to realize the impact that these types of mean-spirited laws and amendments have on real people.
This is why it continues to be so important, Minnesota, to get out and share your stories. Help your friends, co-workers and families connect this "issue" to what it's really about: human love. Once people see that, the NO votes will start pouring in.

To what extent is it okay to rewrite, adapt, or otherwise change classical plays to suit ones' purpose?
View Full Version : adaptation? Crimson_Scribe 07-09-04, 01:50 AM To what extent is it okay to rewrite, adapt, or otherwise change classical plays to suit ones' purpose? vslayer 07-09-04, 08:10 AM it depends on what you mean, if you mean ripping off a play for a school production then do whatever, but once it gets big you probably have to pay royalties or stick to ceratin guideleines set by the writers Crimson_Scribe 07-09-04, 12:51 PM Not for a classical play. But is it fair to the playwright? Nasor 07-09-04, 01:04 PM Well, if the playwright is dead and the copyrights are expired, you aren't hurting anyone. So long as you make it clear that you are presenting an adaptation of the original work, I don't see any problem with it. invert_nexus 07-09-04, 01:15 PM It's fairly common practice to edit plays. Different actors have different styles and different emphasis on different parts. I saw an episode of antiques road show (I'm not a play guy, so my knowledge is fairly weak) where someone brought in some John Barrymore memorabilia. One of the things was a script for a shakespearean play. King Lear, I believe it was. It was edited in John Barrymore's hand, with some passages scribbled out and others changed a bit here and there. It was the appraiser who said it was common practice to do such. The book was fairly valuable, don't recall exactly how much. And as an interesting aside, Barrymore never played Lear. He always wanted to but never had the chance. As to how fair it would be to the playwright, I imagine that it depends on the playwright. I doubt if Shakespeare would have minded much. But, I could be wrong. Never cared much for his work, myself. Wasn't he basically a hack when he was alive? Playing for the common man? It's amusing how intellectual his work is seen today. In it's day it was raunchy stuff. |

Make Your Sensual Bucket List
by Brettani Shannon
In spirit of the 2007 film The Bucket List, we have a great project for you lovers out there. In three easy steps, you will create an imaginative list of sensual desires and see your love life rise above expectation. The objective is to live life to the fullest, centered around a fantastic lifelong love affair. All you need is a journal or computer, some time and a little imagination, and this little exercise could be the start of an amazing journey together.
Step One: Brainstorm Ideas
The first step is for both you and partner to take some time and write down all of the things you hope to experience with each other in the future. Write down the small events as well as the big adventures, because we all know that its the little things that make a difference in our daily lives. There neednt be a time limit for this step as it should be an ongoing creative process. Getting a preliminary list of desires to go on is all you are looking for at this stage. Think back to movies you have watched, books youve read, and stories youve heard that made you think, Aww. I wish I had that. Also try and remember any lost fantasies, ideas or hopes that you have forgotten over the years.There is no need to censor yourselves; you have a lifetime to fulfill your dreams.
Step Two: Start Your Journal
Set up a romantic evening alone with your lover to begin your journal. Tell each other all about the ideas you have had over the last week or so of brainstorming and write them in the first pages of your bucket list journal. Sharing your intimate wishes with each other is a great way to get the ball rolling. Then, the next time you feel like doing something sweet for your partner, planning a special celebration, or just feel like knocking his socks off, you will have a wealth of ideas in the journal. What better gift for your partner than to fulfill one of his bucket list wishes?
Step Three: Record Your Experiences
As your fantasies are realized, note them into the pages of your love journal. You will get the added bonus of being able to look back to remember and relive your special experiences. There are many ways to keep a love journal. It could be a "He Said/She Said" memoir, you could write it together, or it you could make it a scrapbook. For more ideas on love journals, check out this article and this online way of making love journals.

Lobster Season
Posted by Chuck Place on October 26, 2011 · Leave a Comment
The fall means pumpkins and colorful leaves to many, but to Southern California foodies, it means the start of lobster season. To commemorate one of my favorite seafoods, I stopped by Fisherman's Market last Saturday to photograph the day's catch and stumbled on the granddad of all lobster. These monsters are normally thrown back, but … Read more

Resource Economics and Policy
The Bachelor of Science in Renewable Resource Management is an applied science degree that prepares students for careers in renewable resource management. The B.Sc.(RRM) degree focuses on management of land, biotic, and water resources and provides sufficient technical skills to ensure that graduates are highly employable in the resource sector. As well, students are provided with the broader intellectual context that is the hallmark of superior university-level education.
The B.Sc.(RRM) has two fields of study at the major depth of study: Resource Science and Resource Economics and Policy.
Sustainable use of our land, water and plant resources is increasingly recognized as a key societal goal in the 21st Century. Management of these resources requires a combination of applied science and management skills with an understanding of the broad societal context. Renewable Resource Management provides essential skills in resource management coupled with a broader understanding of the role of management in society. The Resource Economics and Policy field of study involves the development of policies directly relevant to the management of bioresources.
Students transferring into the B.Sc.(RRM) program with 18 or more credit units of transfer credits must obtain an approved schedule of courses from a program advisor prior to registration. Students entering the college with credit for B.Sc.(RRM) courses must complete at least 30 credit units of approved senior courses while registered in the College of Agriculture and Bioresources.

- Feb 29, '12 by grace24good pop up- "our records indicate that you have recently scheduled this exam. please contact a member of your board for further assistance. another registration can not be made at this time". if you got this pop up then you passed!!!
- Feb 29, '12 by Bigmaine33Thank you very much and everyone else for the positive feedback and support. I pretty much this time around focused on reading the content in the kaplan stratergies course book and going section by section then I would do questions on that area. If I got less than 60% than I would take again. My goal was to learn more content rather than focus on more question because if you dont know what to look for or what expect you cant anwser any question. The nclex is hard but the more you know the better prepared you will be. Hope this helpsmommyof2Tees likes this.

A. Mitchell, Jr., MD, '03
UMDNJ-New Jersey Medical School
FBI forensic biologist. Doctor. Chief medical examiner. The
resume of Roger A. Mitchell, Jr., MD reads like the stuff of movies and
television crime dramas. You can also add part-time mystery thriller writer to
the list! This 38-year-old alum oversees 1,500 autopsies as chief of the
Northern Regional Medical Examiner's office in Newark. The idea of his career path began 15 years
ago when he got a job with the DNA Unit of the FBI as a forensic biologist
technician right after college graduation from Howard University. The O.J.
Simpson trial was on every television set at the time. "This seemed so
interesting because I was manipulating DNA and performing tests similar to what
was being described on TV." Later on
after med school, a fellowship in the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in
New York City clinched his decision.
Board certified in anatomic and forensic pathology, Mitchell
believes there is something to be learned from every death. Throughout his
career, violence has been an undercurrent of his work and he speaks often to
groups, telling audiences that he doesn't want any of them to end up on his
examination table. His office receives about 4,500 death calls a year and
averages five autopsies a day so it's difficult to ignore the fact that
violence is reaching epidemic proportions, especially in certain communities,
he says. "A disproportionate number of these cases occur in Newark, Trenton,
Camden and Atlantic City." He explains, "It's novel for a medical examiner to
want to be part of crime prevention but in the same way a cardiologist might
want to be part of an anti-smoking or healthy lifestyle promotion, I think it's
my role to be involved. I like the fact that I can act as a resource for law
enforcement and public health programs."

State HIX Early Deadlines Extended
States that plan to operate their own "state-based exchanges" for health insurance under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act were supposed to tell that to the federal government Friday.
The deadline, however, has been extended by a month.
Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, in a letter Thursday to Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal and Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell, announced that HHS has pushed until Dec. 14 what would have been the deadline for state-based exchanges to submit both the letter of declaration stating their intent and a "blueprint" detailing how they would work.
States that want to pursue a "partnership exchange" that relies on the federal government still have until Feb. 15, 2013 to submit a declaration letter and blueprint.

LAYTON -- Layton City Attorney Gary Crane confirmed his office has reached an agreement to resolve charges against Clare B. Niederhauser.
"Yes, we have an agreement, but I can't disclose the details at this time," Crane said.
Crane's office filed one count of reckless endangerment, a class A misdemeanor, against Niederhauser, 64, of Layton. According to the court docket, the charge was filed Wednesday. An arraignment hearing is set for 1:45 p.m. on March 19 in 2nd District Court in Layton.
The Layton City Attorney's office is working with Niederhauser's attorney to reach a plea deal. The agreement will likely be made official on Tuesday when Niederhauser makes his first court appearance, Crane said.
Niederhauser's attorney, Mitch Vilos, confirmed that a plea agreement is in the works but declined to discuss specifics. He said he and Niederhauser will speak to the media after the Tuesday afternoon court appearance.
Police had originally booked and released Niederhauser in the Davis County Jail on Jan. 31 on two counts of reckless endangerment.
The citation is listed on the court website as a "private" document that is not available to view.
Supporters of Niederhauser had planned to attend the Layton City Council meeting Thursday night. A blogger who has supported Niederhauser, posted that due to the agreement attendance at the meeting is no longer necessary.
"The outpouring of support for Clare and his family has been overwhelming," the blogger wrote on supportclare.blogspot.com.
Clark Aposhian, a firearms instructor and chairman of the Utah Shooting Sports Council, has been following the case closely and believes the arrest was appropriate.
"I can understand the guy getting caught up in the moment, but he's got some explaining to do," said Aposhian. "It's not that he was shooting at the person necessarily, but the reckless endangerment is because he fired his gun when the rounds could have gun anywhere."
Robert Santos Cruz, 47, who was inside Niederhauser's house when Niederhauser came on home at 4 p.m. on Jan. 31, appeared in 2nd District Court on Wednesday. Cruz is charged with one count of second-degree felony burglary and one misdemeanor count of criminal mischief.
A felony arraignment hearing for Cruz is set for Feb. 21 before Judge Thomas L. Kay.
Police are still searching for a man and a woman who were in a green, four-door car parked in front of Niederhauser's home at 2536 E. Gentile at 4 p.m. Thursday.
When Niederhauser came home on Jan. 31 at about 4 p.m., he saw the car parked in his driveway, police said. As Niederhauser walked up to the front door, the occupants of the car started honking. A man, later identified as Cruz, came out the front door, carrying a crowbar.
Niederhauser, who has a concealed weapon permit and was carrying a gun, confronted Cruz, ordering him to drop the crowbar, which he did, police said. The vehicle then backed out of the driveway and headed eastbound, and Niederhauser fired a shot, police said.
After the car left, Niederhauser used a cellphone to call 911.
When the first police officer arrived, Niederhauser turned his attention to the officer and Cruz ran to the backyard area. Niederhauser chased him and fired a shot into a field.
The officer heard the shot and let dispatch know shots had been fired, police said.
Neighbors have set up a fund at First National Bank of Layton to help Niederhauser pay for his defense. For those who want to donate, the account is called "In Defense of Home and Family."

TEAMS: Green Bay Packers, Detroit Lions
The Green Bay Packers have put receiver Jordy Nelson and fullback John Kuhn in the lineup against the Detroit Lions.
Nelson was listed as probable on the injury report with hamstring and foot ailments for Sunday's game. Kuhn was also probable with a hamstring injury.
Green Bay was without starting cornerback Sam Shields because of an ankle injury and replaced him with rookie Casey Hayward.
The Lions left Louis Delmas inactive with an injured left knee after listing him as doubtful, and Ricardo Silva started in his place. Detroit had already ruled safety Amari Spievey out after putting him on injured reserve Saturday because of a concussion and activating Drayton Florence.

Happy Wednesday! Quite a busy day we have ahead of us...my nephew Gaven is graduating from pre~K and heading off to kinder. Where does the time go? I'm going to try to put a scrap page with one of his graduation photos soon to share with all of you. Today I have a project and a card to share with you. In continuing in my think green theme I've had as of late, here's one more.
A menu planner is one of those items that not only saves you time but also takes the guessing out of what's for dinner. I put a quick step~by~step tutorial over at the Hybrid Chick blog on how to make this reusable and decorative menu planner.
The shopping list and menu planner,which are from Mari Koehlenberg called What's Cooking? The Collection, are both covered with self~adhesive vinyl decorative covering so that you can write on it with a dry eraser marker, erase when done, and reuse it week after week. I used the newly released WTG Goes Green by My Favorite Things to finish it off. Here's a close up of the paper pieced image and sentiment.
The sentiment and the paper bags I paper pieced where actually stamped on some grocery bags I had set aside to use later...I thought this gave it more of that recycle use.
Samps: My Favorite Things: WTG Goes Green

I have a friend who is actually good about planning her meals every week so I'm going to be giving her this along with other goodies I put together for her birthday. Since I made a her a birthday card already, I thought I would put together a fun card to go with this board. Using this week's SCS Sketch Challenge (SCS284) and Kim's Wednesday Stamp Clug Challenge (MFTWSC06092010) this is what I came up with.
I stamped the image with Rich Cocoa Memento Ink and Colored it with Copics. I then cut it out with Spellbinders Oval Scallop die, added some dashes and st it aside. I used of My Favorite Things Cork and Die-animics Jumbo Scallop Die to cut out a strip and set that aside. The last thing I cut out was the grass out Felt using the Die-animics Fresh Cut Grass Die which I adhered to a piece of patterned paper from October Afternoon's Fly a Kite pad.
The last element I worked on before assembling the card was the bow and buttons. I layered three buttons (small, medium and large) and tied them all together with some hemp and them to a piece of twill which I tied in a bow. I used double-sided tape to adhere the buttons to the twill and the twill to the card front as well as on the cork.
This was a fun project and a great sketch to design with...hope you give both a try!

Just entered this as my marathon substitute. I know 10k and marathon don't exactly seem the same but I love the idea of the route past big ben, buckingham palace, london eye etc...
Anyone else running it or run it previously?
Hi - I've entered to run this as well but not done it before
I've never heard of this one, was going to ask where it was until you mentioned big ben etc, now I think I can guess haha. When is this race?
Join my Blonde music group to keep up to date and chat about the latest blonde music news...
It's on the 8th of July hannah_mc - are you thinking of entering?
I'm actually really looking forward to this, I've not seen or heard much of it before It's just that I see it in a copy of runners world
I ran this in 2010. Thoroughly enjoyed it, although the start was very narrow and took longer for me to get through than it did on the London Marathon from sector 9 this year. I seem to remember quite a few people had finished before I'd started.
Also I think there were no chips so you have to self time on this!
Great race though, thinking of running myself!
Thank you for that bit of infor.
Guaranteed entry includes chip timing this year
Good news re the chip. Just seen the only way to enter is the guaranteed £50 way. Bit too dear for pricey for me, but I'm sure you'll enjoy it!
If you missed getting a place in the London 10k on 8th July, Headway East London still has guaranteed places available. The places are free, but runners are asked to aim to raise at least £300 in sponsorship money. This is easier than you think, especially if your employer will offer to match what you collect (ask them!) You will receive a Headway East London running vest and fundraising advice/support. Find out more about our charity at www.headwayeastlondon.org
This run will have a real buzz to it, just weeks before the Olympics. Sign up today. Spaces are limited, and must be filled by 28th June. Please email me at firstname.lastname@example.com

The same person who got a hold of an early copy of the FF7ACC Blu-ray has now also uploaded some footage for Final Fantasy Versus XIII. Following yesterday's footage from the FFXIII demo, we now have a trailer for Versus.
From what I can tell, this is the exact same trailer shown in the closed doors theater during their Jump Festa event, with that scene showing the tense conversation between Noct and Stella. A shame the dialogue was just masked over with a song - it would have been nice to hear them talk, even if it would have been in Japanese.
The first vid is a bootleg copy of the Versus bonus content in the Advent Children Blu-ray disc, while the second one is a direct-feed (hence, higher quality) video of Noct and Stella's chat. Let's hope we also see whatever bonus content Square Enix included in the disc for Agito...

No, not as far as I know. iA2 is just an accessibility API, and a Windows one at that. It's nothing to do with the file format per se, it's to do with how you access specific UI features. So, e.g., it would be equally applicable to any other document format if the application in question used it. The OpenDocument link presumably comes in because they're attempting to supplement the existing Windows accessibility API sufficiently to get parity/beyond the feature set offered by Office. -- Alex Hudson IT Director, Stratagia Ltd.

We fabricate polymer and composite polymer/metal tubes of mesoscopic dimensions by self-rolling of thin bilayer polymer films which are released in controllable manner from a solid substrate.1 The bending moment arise due to different swelling of the components of the bilayer in a selective solvent. As a model system we explore polystyrene/poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PS/P4VP) bilayer which rolls in acidic water due to selective swelling of P4VP.
The major advantage of the approach is the possibility to functionalize the inner surface of the tubes by variety of planar methods, such as micro-contact printing, photolithography, plasma treatment, prior to the tube formation by film rolling. This opens new opportunities for the engineering of micro- and nanodevices based on tubular elements such as sensors, micro-reactors, chromatographic capillaries etc. For example geometrically complex patterns (i.e. arrays of hydrophobic/hydrophilic spots, stripes or spirals of definite handedness) can be easily created inside microchannels by micro-contact printing on the bilayer prior to rolling. On the other hand, the properties of the confining walls have the utmost importance for the physico-chemical processes in the micro- and nanocontainers.
Micro-syringes and microfluidic circuits fabricated with use of self-rolled tubes with functionalized inner surface can find applications in bio-medical research and drug-delivery systems.

B) Functionalization of the top layer (i.e. by micro-contact printing.) C) Presetting of the rolling direction by lithographic windows. D) Rolling of the bilayer in a solvent due to selective swelling of the bottom component and/or the selective etch of the sacrificial layer. | fig. 2 A) AFM topography image of a sub-micron tube. The inset: height profile along the straight line segment. The total length of the tube is at least 40mm B) Optical micrograph of a bunch of polymer tubes with the topographically and chemically structured inner surface. The tubes are approximately 2cm-long and their length is restricted only by the dimensions of the substrate (the silicon wafer). The topography features on the inner surface of the tubes were created by the local melt of polystyrene under the pins of PDMS stamp swollen in toluhene. The optical contrast of the topography features was enhanced by magnetron sputtering of gold. |

All my watches are Timex watches, but this Timex watch is the best watch I have ever bought!!! My mom wanted this watch when she saw it, so I bought one for her too. My only complaint is that the watch band is a little too tight for me and I had to buy extra links for my mom's watch which made the overall price of the watch higher. (It would fit a thin person.) I didn't mark it down for that because that doesn't have anything to do with the watch and how it works. Great watch!!.Performance, comfortable, Worn all the time, Battery life, easy to read, reliableband a little small for larger womenI didn't mark it down for this - My complaint is that the watch band is a little too tight for me and I had to buy extra links for my mom's watch which made the overall price of the watch higher. You should make the band slightly larger or give free links when it is too small.

I have had it for a year or two and I love this watch, however, it stopped keeping accurate time. I got a new battery about 6 months ago because it kept losing time. The battery didn't help as it still loses time - maybe 20 minutes every half hour.
I am hesitant to purchase another Timex as my previous watch was a $12.99 one from Wal-mart and seemed to last longer that this one did. I am disappointed that a brand name watch like Timex - that is supposed to "take a licking and still be ticking"... I work an office job, so it is pretty lightly used.

I have worn Timex womens watches for years and the only watch I will wear. In over 30 years I have only had maybe 4-5 watches about every 5 years I have to replace one for some reason. I like the nightlight on the one I have but have had some when the nightlight would not workl. Mine have taken a licking and keep ticking. A gal I work with has a Timex also similar to the one I have and the only watch she will wear too.

This loyal citizen of Buffalo shows his allegiance to the cause by reppin' a giant Bills logo across his chest, we'll leave the question of whether that's paint or a tattoo to you. You also know this loon is from Buffalo because he's wearing no shirt in the freezing cold, but he's probably had enough beers become numb to the elements and forget all about the game.

Christine Boll likes to organize and plan, even when it comes helping the community play.
Boll and about 1,000 other volunteers are getting ready to run the 21st annual St. Joseph Carnival at St. Joseph Catholic Church, 2935 Kingston Road in Springettsbury Township.
The carnival runs 5 to 10 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday.
"We get thousands of people at the carnival," Boll said. "We're reaching out to the community, trying to make (the carnival) something that all families can to come to. We get a lot of Catholic and non-Catholic families."
There are no admission or parking fees. However, attendees must pay for food, rides and games, said Boll, a St. Joseph member and the carnival committee's co-chair and volunteer coordinator.
Ride-all-night bands are $20 each and are good for one night. Also, dinners will be sold for $9 Tuesday through Friday.
"We try to keep games at $1 and have everything reasonably priced for families, to keep it as (affordable) as possible," Boll said.
A good cause: Proceeds from the carnival are given to the church, which uses the money to support its ministries and for donations to charities and families in need, she said.
The carnival's volunteers are mainly St. Joseph members and local Catholic school students, who help run booths and with set-up and tear-down duties, Boll said.
Boll said she has been helping with carnival efforts for eight years and is glad the church has provided her with a fun way to use her organizational and planning skills.
"I met so many people and new friends I wouldn't have met had I never gotten involved," she said. "I just enjoy seeing all the kids, families and details come together for our carnival."
