SACRAMENTO, Calif. — United States Attorney Benjamin B. Wagner announced that today United States Magistrate Judge Edmund F. Brennan sentenced Cesar Caballero, 42, of El Dorado, to 90 days in prison for obstructing the mail.

VICTORIA -- Local governments are not doing enough to stop marijuana-related crimes and an upcoming vote on whether or not to support the legalization of pot is not the action needed, according to a decorated criminologist.
Dr. Darryl Plecas, who holds the RCMP University Research Chair in Crime Reduction at the University of the Fraser Valley, told a packed Monday morning Union of B.C. Municipalities study session that he would stake his life on there not being any changes made to illegal grow ops if the federal government decriminalized marijuana.
On Wednesday morning, UBCM delegates will vote on a resolution calling on the appropriate government to decriminalize marijuana and research the regulation and taxation of the drug.
Plecas, one of five speakers arguing the pros and cons of supporting the resolution, said issues with marijuana producers would remain unless municipalities took action.
You need to start using your regulatory powers and bylaws to make it incredibly difficult for people to have these grow ops, he said, adding the lack of municipal regulation is a thorn in the side of law enforcement.
It comes back to the failure of municipalities to do their part, said Plecas.
But supporting the fight for decriminalization is taking action, said police officer David Bratzer.
The federal and provincial governments are not going to take this first step, said Bratzer, speaking on behalf of Stop the Violence BC - a coalition of law enforcement officials, legal experts and public health officials focused on the links between organized crime and pot prohibition.
He said a lack of a legal dispute mechanism when it comes to the marijuana trade has led to his police colleagues getting injured or killed and creates a financial strain on police, and subsequently
municipal, budgets.
Its a very polarizing issue, said Kamloops councillor Ken Christian, who said the opportunity to learn more about the pros and cons was extremely valuable. Its something civic government needs to look at.
Earlier this year, Prince George Mayor Shari Green said that the reform of marijuana laws was a federal issue and not one she was focused on.
Theres no question we have a gang issue and drug trade and organized crime go hand in hand, and its an expensive battle to fight. But until the federal level makes a change, we have what we have and we do what we need to do to combat it, Green said in a May interview.
Similarly, the Regional District of Fraser-Fort George has not taken a position on whether pot should be legalized, said district chair Art Kaehn.
Valemount councillors Christine Latimer and Sandy Salt said they were intrigued by the prospect of having a say in the regulation and taxation of marijuana and reaping potential financial benefits, but understood the less glamorous realities of the situation.
Were never going to be able to eliminate the crime aspect, said Salt.
Its blowing up to a point where a decision needs to be made,
Latimer added.

Albanien wird die alten Korruptions Geschäfte der früheren Regierung neu aufrollen

Albania's DP wants old corruption-related cases reopened
TIRANA, Albania – Ruling Democratic Party's (DP) deputy leader Edi Paloka asked parliament Thursday (May 15th) to allow the prosecutor general to reopen all corruption cases linked to state officials. "Immunity should be lifted as a measure against corruption, but we also call for the opening of all corruption files at the prosecutors' office," Paloka said.
The opposition Socialist Party (SP) meanwhile boycotted the session at which the majority discussed two economy-related draft laws. The Socialists say they will continue their boycott until Prime Minister Sali Berisha reports to parliament on the deadly March 15th Gerdec ammunition blasts, corruption and the assets of public officials.
In other news, effective on July 1st, the government plans to boost salaries above inflation levels. "We will double salaries over a period of four years; on July 1st we will increase salaries by much more than the inflation rate in a bid to offer support to consumers," Finance Minister Ridvan Bode said on Thursday. (Koha Jone - 16/05/08; TopChannel, Alsat - 15/05/08)

These are photos of Tom Hardy in London yesterday, the day after the UK premiere for The Dark Knight Rises. As you can see, Hardy was wearing a promotional t-shirt for TDKR, and he looks really happy and jazzed, especially with (what I'm assuming is) his promotional matte-black Bat-car. These photos were taken roughly ten hours before the horrific mass-shooting at a late-night screening of TDKR in Aurora, Colorado. We're not a hard-news site – we only bump up against real news stories when they have some kind of celebrity attached, or when they involve pop culture in some way. So, I'm not going to be covering the hard-news developments of the deaths and injuries of these poor people who just wanted to see TDKR, and I won't be giving any time to the POS a—hole shooter. My thoughts and prayers are with the families of those injured or killed.
Here's People Mag's coverage thus far:
At least 12 fans attending a midnight screening of The Dark Knight Rises Friday morning were killed when a gunman opened fire on the audience in Aurora, Colo., a suburb of Denver.
Another estimated 50 were wounded, including a 6-year-old girl, Police Chief Dan Oates told reporters, CNN reports.
Police apprehended 24-year-old suspect James Holmes – a local resident who was said to be heavily armed and wearing a bulletproof vest – in a rear parking lot of the Century 16 Theater in Aurora's Town Center Mall, police spokesman Frank Fania told CNN. "He did not resist. He did not put up a fight," Fania said.
Holmes remains in custody. His home is currently being searched for possible explosive materials or devices.
Holmes's mother, who lives in San Diego, confirmed to ABC News that her son was the shooter, saying, "You have the right person." According to ABC News, she was unaware of the shooting until she woke up and had not been contacted by authorities. She also expressed her concern, and told ABC, "I need to fly out to Colorado."
The attack in the theater began when the suspect tossed a canister of tear gas into the crowd through an emergency exit door, reports CNN affiliate KUSA. He then opened fire. Some moviegoers thought he was part of the show.
"We saw people running around and screaming," an unidentified man told KUSA. Another moviegoer said the gunman wore a gas mask and moved through the theater, firing randomly.
Of the wounded, at least 20 were being treated at the University of Colorado Hospital for minor to critical gunshot wounds, spokeswoman Jacque Montgomery told CNN.
At the moment, the Dark Knight Rises cast – including Christian Bale, Anne Hathaway, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Morgan Freeman and Marion Cotillard – is in Paris for a scheduled red carpet premiere on the Champs-Elysees Friday night. PEOPLE has been told that Warner Bros. has canceled all interviews related to the movie opening, as well as the premiere itself.
In a statement, the studio said: "Warner Bros. is deeply saddened to learn about this shocking incident. We extend our sincere sympathies to the families and loved ones of the victims at this tragic time."
Warner Bros. has pulled Hardy, Anne Hathaway, Christian Bale and the other actors from all of their promotional work in Europe for the time being. Warner Bros. also canceled tonight's premiere of TDKR in Paris. According to Radar, the whole cast had already flown to Paris (from the UK) before they heard about the Colorado massacre. My guess is that the Paris premiere will be canceled for good, and Warner Brothers will do a media blackout for the weekend, and then the actors' promotional duties will resume on Monday. That's just my guess, btw, I have no inside information. Also – Nikki Finke is already talking about how this devastating tragedy will affect TDKR's opening weekend. Too soon, Finke.

London 2012 Olympic Games Gold Medal Stamps
Origin of Cool are huge fans of art and design combined with sport and we've kept our eyes on the upcoming Olympics for great examples of this. Team GB have teamed up with Royal Mail to bring the British public a series of next-day stamps. The catch: they are only produced if a member of Team GB wins a gold medal during the London 2012 Olympics (from 27th July to 12thAugust)! Launched by former Team GB gold medal winner Sally Gunnell, the stamps will feature, wherever possible, photographs of the Team GB athlete or team in action from their gold medal winning effort. This will be the first time any host country has used action shots for Gold Medal stamps and issued them immediately, during the Games.

There are many things to look into before and after bringing the newest pet home etting the brand new pet. The reason being the healthiness of your dog, your home and ultimately the decision to find your pet dog should be looked at in order to settle for the right long-time pet. In the first place, the net is your friend in this situation because you'll find listings of dogs for sale so you can make some price comparisons.
You must also visit shelters and find out when there is an opportunity to adopt a dog as long as it can be well trained and disease free. You have just crossed the starting place.
With regards to pets, what the law states can't be overlooked. This is because places like some apartment buildings don't allow pets. You have to also find out what the laws say about pets within your residential area. As unfair since it sounds, health of the humans within the residence must be considered let me give you. However, if everyone is clear, it is possible to uncover what dog they would like to own and this will restrict your research for starters. Excellent dogs care can be given in the event the space at home can comfortably accommodate a dog thus you must consider this.
After all the above factors are looked at, you can now proceed to obtain the dog. Before or immediately after you bring the brand new dog home, choose a place in your home that your dog can eat and sleep form safely. You should know that viruses and bacteria do affect humans differently from animals to be on the safe side, you have to choose a spot not even close to human food. You must then make sure el born area is well far from anything that will be ingested from the humans in the house. It is possible to offer the brand new pet great dogs care knowing when it is usually dewormed and given all its necessary shots. Ensure that it provides a regular history of deforming as well as any necessary vaccination it requires for excellent dogs care and health.
A family group can bond and engage in team leadership through feeding, walking and cleaning the dog via a fixed roster. Which means that the dog will never be neglected because it will likely be fed at regular intervals. It has to also get its exercise this means making a devote the yard for this or constantly walking it. Having it groomed and cleaned is another good way of keeping your dog you healthy.

That's wonderful Cricket. :)
It's amazing what we can find out if we just screw up our courage and ask. And the answers were pretty good I think. He took responsibility for what he was doing, and even acknowledged that it wasn't helping. That's the sort of thing my therapist does very well.
I think it bodes very well for the future.
And if things start getting icky again, now you know you can talk to him about it and the world won't end and he won't get mad and things might even get better.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe called architecture frozen music. Bompas and Parr think architecture and gelatin might be a better match.
These London-based culinary architects and the University College of London (UCL) hosted a jelly banquet on July 4th as part of the London Festival of Architecture that featured work from the UK's best architecture firms, all rendered in gelatin. The entries were judged on their innovation, aesthetics, and "wobble factor."
Bompas and Parr's event reached beyond the visual pleasure of sensuous wobble and the culinary delight of sweet jellies. Honor bound by their commitment to explore the brave new world between food and architecture, they (with the help of sound artist Doug Murphy) captured the sound of wobbling jelly for the the first time ever. These oscillations made up the soundtrack for the evening's festivities.
I wasn't there, but the wreckage that occured in the wake of this post-modern mash-up of aesthetic creations suggests that a good time was had by a great many.
Foster + Partners had a bit of fun with their own Millennium Bridge, which has had its own wobble issues.
Rogers Stirk Harbour and Partners took on their Barajas Airport.
Grimshaw Architects' Eden Project Jelly.
SMC Alsop's entry.
And the winner--Tonkin Liu's Fresh Flower Jelly, based on a moveable pavilion design.
If you think it's all whimsy, check out these quotes:
"The work of Bompas and Parr operates in the space between food and architecture. Our projects explore how the taste of food is altered through synaesthesia, performance, and setting. Currently, the focus of our research is jelly. Jelly is the perfect site of an examination of food and architecture due to its uniquely plastic form and the historic role it has played in exploring notions of taste."--Sam Bompas and Harry Parr.
"As babies, we first learn about our world by touching it and putting bits of it in our mouth. Part of our subconscious appreciation of shape may well be a dim memory of how it might feel in our mouth. Thus, a dome is round and cooly satisfying, while a pointed building is like a sharp and dangerous knife. Jelly architecture returns architecture to the mouth, where we can once again taste it."--Professor Stephen Gage of the UCL Bartlett School of Architecture, and one of the competition judges.

Looks like the spouse of the main victim puts the blame on ATT (not the sub's sub, nor the victim's failed equipment. I am sorry for the loss, but blame isn't going to get people back. Awareness, safety and legislation just might save future lives). But we here know how "legislation and telcos works...)
I wonder what expectations are on these climbers for speed and "efficiency".
See! This is the problem I have with outsourcing. It save money to the share holder (profit), but at cost to the personnel (human factor).
2 recommendations
Nobody needs to die when climbing anything. Using double lanyards so that your are always attached by at least one at all times is the only way to safely climb any type of tower.
Not all companies provide the safety gear. My brother worked for a small wireless internet company climbing water towers with little gear. They got bought out by a larger company and he got the training and safety gear needed.
Right, throughout the entire nation jobs are plentiful and high-paying.
It seems that greed may be the only one to blame.
They need to crack down on that practice. What got me is how hard is it to make a couple of phone calls to find out which wireless company ordered the job. OSHA pretty much gave up after the got slapped by court in Bluegrass case.
With that said, the carriers have a moral obligation to assure that the sub-contractors provide proper training, suitable wages to promote employee retention so they gain skills, wages that retain higher skilled climbers to act as supervisors and commit to spending on projects to assure sub-contractors make enough money to properly replace safety equipment.
The car analogy is weak since the people purchasing the cars are not being asked by the manufacturers to do something dangerous.
If you want a better analogy, why don't you try using someone who is paid to drive a truck for a company. Shouldn't that company be required to ensure the driver is licensed and the truck is in proper working order? Or are you going to say that is the responsibility of the driver alone and the company can wash its hands of any accidents.
For the most part, I agree with you. I see guys every day go up in buckets without a safety harness on. I am sure they have one but just don't put it on. Maybe they are just going to run up 'for a second to check something' and can't be bothered, who knows. I can tell you it is stupid to even consider it and I would never do it.On the flip side of that coin, I can also tell you that I have personally been assigned aerial work literally THE DAY AFTER I told my foreman I needed a safety lanyard and didn't get one because they 'were on order'. When I reminded him I had no lanyard, he huffed and threw the work back on the desk... he found a really shitty job for me to spend the next week on. He took it that I was giving him a hard time and didn't want to do the aerial work rather than realizing HE fucked up by not having needed safety equipment. So there is certainly pressure to get your work done whether you have the equipment or not. Had I done the aerial work anyway and fallen, I am sure a Verizon spokesperson would have insisted that I had the proper equipment available to me.If there are so many tower workers that free-climb, then there is a disconnect that needs to be addressed. Whether it is in training, policy, equipment, management, or worker mentality... something is wrong. Ultimately, it has to be the company's responsibility to fix that problem. Holding them liable for what looks like worker stupidity is the only way to make sure they address it.
When they're paying close to minimum wage, it's obvious these are not skilled climbers. That is reprehensible as these will be people making mistakes (sometimes very dumb ones) and getting killed.

PearHaven is about maintaining and strengthening relationships. It's for people of all ages who are dating, engaged, married or in a long-term relationship.
Six Habits of Highly Grateful People
Here is a sample habit by Jeremy Adam Smith, featured in The Greater Good website. 5. They mention the pancakes Grateful people are habitually specific. They don't say, "I love you because you're just so wonderfully wonderful, you!" Instead, the really skilled grateful person will say: "I love you for the pancakes you make when you see I'm hungry and the way you massage my feet after work even when you're really tired and how you give me hugs when I'm sad so that I'll feel better!" The reason for this is pretty simple: It makes the expression of gratitude feel more authentic, for it reveals that the thanker was genuinely paying attention and isn't just going through the motions. The richest thank you's will acknowledge intentions ("the pancakes you make when you see I'm hungry") and costs ("you massage my feet after work even when you're really tired"), and they'll describe the value of benefits received ("you give me hugs when I'm sad so that I'll feel better"). When Amie Gordon and colleagues studied gratitude in couples, they found that spouses signal grateful feelings through more caring and attentive behavior. They ask clarifying questions; they respond to trouble with hugs and to good news with smiles. "These gestures," Gordon writes, "can have profound effects: Participants who were better listeners during those conversations in the lab had partners who reported feeling more appreciated by them." Remember: Gratitude thrives on specificity!

Google Wallet further empowers the smart phone
See Figure One for a schematic explanation of Google Wallet functionality. The next phase of the Google Wallet is expected to enable users to store driver's license, admission tickets, other IDs as well as electronic access (keys) in application file, in other words to resemble a physical wallet. (See Figure One - Schematic Operation of Google Wallet.)
The success of the Google Wallet is largely dependent on the increasing popularity of mobile and local (MoLo) platform programming. As a mobile application the Google Wallet has the capability to handle transaction settlement, apply discounts, apply promotional campaigns, and factor loyalty points in the final reconciliation. MoLo Rewards (molorewards.com) technology allows users to earn, find, and use coupons for a variety of purchases. With MoLo e-coupons, which likely can work with any e-wallet application, are located and applied at the point of purchase with affiliated rewards being appropriately managed. Basically, a consumer taps a mobile Google Wallet device on an NFC payment reader, exchanging payment information, applying relevant discounts, and aggregating loyalty rewards.
MoLo is built on both NFC and RFID technologies. An NFC-compliant device is also equipped with an RFID tag that creates a unique identification code to control transactions. The code links to data stored on MoLo Rewards servers. (See Figure Two - Schematic Operation of MoLo Rewards.)
Google Offers
By broadcasting price discounts and product promotions directly to the phone of the consumer, savings can be applied when the products are purchased and settled at the point-of-sale (POS). Sales credits are applied to the transaction at time of settlement, loyalty or reward points are posted, and a receipt is sent back to the phone as support documentation. There are no hard copy documents that accompany product purchases. The Google Wallet is bundled with Google Offers software to produce a comprehensive and efficient shopping device. (See Figure Three - Google Wallet with Google Offers Content Example.)
Unlike credit/debit card processors that rely on transaction fees for revenue, Google does not plan to profit from transaction processing fees, but instead will aggregate purchase data for transactional and trend analysis. Google views the Google Wallet not as a means for transactional residuals, but rather as a way to expand its mobile advertising strategy. Concentrating on consumer data is expected to generate a competitive advantage for Google over alternate electronic payment schemes since transaction expenses will be lower and NFC readers may be provided to retailers at little or no cost (supplemented by Google).
According to projections by financial analyst group Canaccord Genuity, Google revenues could exceed $14 billion from mobile-advertising sales in 2015. This projection is based on the increased volume of mobile search, display, and applied advertisements on smartphones with Google Wallet operating under the Android operating system. Google's growth is expected to increase significantly between 2011 and 2015 given the abundant growth of mobile, social and local applications on handheld devices. The main factor leading to significantly enhanced mobile revenues is the projected success of Google Wallet and Google Offers.
Note: If currently using a smartphone for Google Maps, then a similar sequence of activities is followed for Google Wallet and the use of advertising and promotions. For example, consider what happens when employing the mapping application in search of a local pizzeria. The application will display nearby pizza restaurants along with available promotions. Following service at the selected pizza place, the smartphone housing the Google Wallet is waved to initiate payment while active discount are redeemed and applied against the amount due.
The Google Wallet is simply a way to pay for goods via a mobile phone (m-commerce) and was recently launched through a partnership with Citibank, MasterCard, Sprint, First Data and three major retailers (Macy's, Subway, and Walgreens). The Google Wallet is a downloadable application for a smartphone equipped with Near Field Communication (NFC) technology. This technology enables consumers to complete a purchase transaction by waving or tapping the phone with an NFC-compliant payment terminal. Part of the download includes the flash sale, coupon-based Google Offers. Google Offers is a flash sale service based on local promotions, discounts, and special offers. Google has been described as disinterested in charging transaction fees as it plans to derive revenue from location-based advertising, couponing, and related promotions.

Where Did You Get My Number?
Identifying The Bereaved
This chapter discusses the importance of identifying the bereaved, describing the author's experience in receiving a telephone call from a mother who believed that her son had lost his mind. Although he believed that he may not have been the right person for the mother to call, the author continued the conversation and found out that the reason for the child's behaviour was the death of his father just a few hours before. The chapter suggests that the identified patient, such as the son in this case, or the person identified as having problems, could be simply the family thermometer. It explains that after a parental death, the surviving parent is trying to cope with many different tasks and conflicting emotions, and that it can be hard for such parents to let their guard down enough to realize that they need help.
Keywords: bereaved, death, children, parental death, parents, conflicting emotions

SHARON ANN WURMANN December 13, 1938 - June 17, 2012 After a weekend of visits from all of her children and grandchildren, Sharon passed away peacefully at Riverview Health Centre. Sharon had been struggling with Progressive Supra Nuclear Palsy (PSP) since 2005 and although we are deeply saddened by her passing, we know she is at peace. Sharon is survived by her husband Erich, daughters Karoline, Kirsten, Hannelore (Steve), Heidi (Geoff), grandchildren Isaac, Max, Atli and Ruby, and her brother Craig and sister Sandy. She is also survived by family and friends throughout Canada and Germany. Sharon was born in Regina, SK on December 13, 1938 to parents William and Margaret McNamara. Sharon grew up in Winnipeg, graduating from Grosvenor Elementary and Kelvin High School respectively. She obtained her Bachelors in Arts and Social Work from the University of Manitoba. She completed her Masters of Social Work in 1964 also at the University of Manitoba. After completing her undergraduate degrees, Sharon hit the road with two close friends, Barb and Linda, and traveled Europe. It was while hitchhiking in Ireland that she met Erich (her far too good looking future husband) at the Ballygally Youth Hostel over porridge in the early morning. Sharon and Erich were married on August 29, 1964 in Winnipeg, Manitoba. With barely two dimes to rub together, they headed off to Churchill, MB with big jobs and big dreams. During the ensuing years, Sharon was busy raising four daughters and living in Whitehorse, Yukon and Germany where she embraced the language and the culture in true Sharon style. Sharon was a relentless force who continued to ripen with each passing year and experience. She began her working career with government and then stretched out on her own, starting up a private practice in Edmonton, AB run by a group of MSW therapists specializing in childhood sexual abuse. Sharon traveled throughout the Northern communities offering counseling and running training workshops. Sharon and Erich retired to Vernon, BC in 1995 where Sharon continued to work with her practice for a number of years. Once fully retired, Sharon began her social justice work with the Raging Grannies and the Vernon Women's Resource Centre. It was here that she found her new political voice. Music was a large part of Sharon's life. From choirs and school performances in Winnipeg to campfire sing-songs with her family to community protests and events, Sharon never stopped singing. The service for Sharon will be held Friday, June 22, 2012, 2:00 p.m. at Thomson Funeral Home. In lieu of flowers, Sharon's family asks that you make donations to Cure PSP (www.psp.org), the West Central Women's Resource Centre (Winnipeg), or a women's centre near you.

Equity can be our best friend and our worst enemy.
It is very comforting to confirm the calculations showing one's net worth, title or equity in collective assets.
However, this financial freedom comes with the temptation to borrow more against it, especially for things like home renovations. The fact is that one has to be careful to ensure that those renovations and 'improvements' will in fact increase the value of the property, making borrowing against the equity a good thing to do.
If the renovations and improvements do not increase the value of the property, it becomes another case of 'throwing good money after bad' – and this doesn't just go for real estate, but also vehicles, boats, and other high value personal property.
Another case in which one must be careful borrowing against asset equity is for emergencies or to pay off revolving credit and/or everyday bills. The likelihood is that once the bill is paid, the balance will only increase to the same level or worse unless the problems that got one there are addressed.
In the end, if it's decided to still go ahead and borrow against assets, one of the best ways to do it is through a secured personal loan or title loan, where it's possible to take advantage of lower interest rates and little or no fees.
Watch out for those store-front 'money market' or 'payday loan' stores. They can be deadly traps, getting one into a cycle of depending on these short term, high interest, high cost loans to make it through from payday to payday.
For those with poor to bad credit, using the title loan companies may be a good way to rebuild one's credit after a rough patch as long as the borrower is careful to use it wisely, only to improve their financial circumstances.

Answered Questions
Is fixing a deviated septum more complicated after a primary rhinoplasty?
Is it more difficult to correct a deviated septum after one has already had a rhinoplasty for aesthetic purposes to correct a nasal bump?
If you had a closed rhinoplasty with dorsal hump reduction and possibly infractures, it is really no more difficult to perform a delayed septoplasty than if you never had any previous surgery. (Although I'm surprised your surgeon didn't address this issue at the time of the rhinoplasty.) If you had an open approach with a columellar strut, the septoplasty is just slightly more difficult to perform due to some existing scaring. On the other hand, if you had previously had an aggressive septoplasty and later want to perform a reduction rhinoplasty, this scenario might be significantly complicated and could require utilization of a remote cartilage donor site.
Is it OK to have twilight anesthesia instead of general anesthesia for a facelift and eyelid surgery?
Will twilight anesthesia be OK for a 4+ hour facelift, along with upper and lower eyelid surgery?
Anesthetic depth is on a spectrum, and practitioners will mean different things while using the same terms. In general, twilight anesthesia means that the patient is just on the verge of being asleep and can still respond and protect their own airway - they are just at the precipice of slipping into general anesthesia. Once you enter the realm of general anesthesia, the patient cannot protect their own airway, so some type of breathing tube is used to keep it open (such as a Laryngeal Mask Airway or an Endotrachial Tube). General anesthesia is quite safe, as your airway is fully protected. Twilight is a bit of a balancing act, but can be done quite well by vigilant anesthesiologists. My concern with twilight anesthesia is that it does not necessarily require an MD anesthesiologist to be present - it could be managed by the operating surgeon and monitored by an RN. Some surgeons will go this route as a cost savings measure (MDs are more expensive than RNs), but I do not think this is a good place to cut corners. If your surgeon uses an anesthesiologist and they prefer twilight, then it should be fine. I would not recommend twilight if it is going to be managed by the operating surgeon. (Think about it - are you better at concentrating on one task, or trying to do two things at the same time?)

Computer Imaging
Is it bad if a surgeon doesn't have computer imaging to preview your nose before surgery?
I think that computer imaging is extremely useful in discussing potential goals during rhinoplasty consultation. When imaging is used, both the surgeon and the patient can feel more comfortable that there is no misunderstanding regarding the cosmetic goals of the procedure. (A picture is worth 1,000 words.) If I display a morphed image that I think is both possible and what the patient desires, and then the patient absolutely hates the image, we both really have to reconsider moving forward! If they love the picture, I'm happy to be their surgeon.
Best regards,

Will I have to stop BTX (Botox) injections before getting a facelift and getting my eyelids done? If yes, how long before? I get BTX above my nose and at the corners of both eyes and lips.
Botox relaxes facial musculature and helps reduces "expendable" facial wrinkles. If you are having surgery that directly affects the muscle groups, then you should wait for the Botox to wear off before the procedure. A brow lift operation addresses forehead wrinkles, glabellar lines, and eyebrow position. As BTX injections in the forehead, glabella, and crow's feet affect all of these regions, I'd advise you to let the Botox wear off before you have your assessment, photos, and surgery if you are undergoing a brow lift. Although there are obicularis weakening procedures (that help with the crow's feet) which can be performed as part of a facelift, these are not common, and it should be OK to undergo a facelift and blepharoplasty while BTX is still active. Since all patients are different and there are many intricacies of these procedures, it is best to discuss these specific issues with the surgeon performing your surgery to decide what is most appropriate in your individual circumstance.

What is the best filler for beginning marionette lines? I have had three treatments of Sculptra but still do not have the results I desire.
The Marionette begins to show at the corner of the mouth, and extends down towards the jaw line. The lower aspect begins to show as the jowl develops behind it. Fillers work well for the upper Marionette line, but using any type of filler to address the lower Marionette line is an attempt to camouflage the jowl by blunting the transition from the chin to the jowl. The down side of this is that it will give the jaw a wider appearance. For a patient who really wants to avoid surgery, this might be an acceptable tradeoff. The best way to address the jowl and lower Marionette line is a face lift procedure. I'd recommend you consult with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who both uses fillers and performs face lift procedures. Discuss your goals, and they should be able to tell you if your goals are achievable with fillers, or if you are really requesting the results of a face lift.

House and Home Storytime
When I began my planning last fall, I was running out of ideas for storytimes. I've covered so many themes, I simply could not think of anything new! So, what did I do?!?! Why I asked my dear friend for suggestions; one of them being "houses". "Hmmm", I thought. "I can't remember the last night I did a storytime on houses." And so the planning began.
Books were easy. So many fun ones to choose from! Here are a few of my favorites:
This Is The House That Jack Built by Pam Adams
*A fun version of this classic, cummulative tale
If the Shoe Fits by Alison Jackson
*The old woman who lives in a shoes wants to move out with her kids, but can't find an accomodating space in this tale featuring many nursery rhyme characters.
Duck at the Door by Jackie Urbanovic
*Max the duck doesn't want to fly south for the winter, so he ends up staying with the human Irene and her animal companions (picture book series).
A great felt board story to share is The Three Little Pigs. Typically if you do this with a group of preschoolers they are going to know the story and be able to chime in. Hmm did I say "chime in"??? they'll probably be shouting out the whole story with you. That's good, active learning!
Next, I needed to come up with a craft project. What could we do for houses?!? Finally it dawned on me that we could design (decorate) house shapes. I folded over a piece of 9"X18" construction paper and cut out a basic house shape, leaving the folded side pretty much intact so that the house could be "opened" like a card.
To decorate, I left out magazines, markers and scrap paper. They cut out doors and windows, made beds, and included lots of toys (every house needed toys in it!). They turned out super cute and were so easy to do!

Andrew Ellis and I have a history with the Idaho International Film Festival going back to their first year with the showing of our first big public short, Pizza Man vs. The Dude - which cost us roughly $24 bucks to make: my how things have changed. - Writer Will Schmeckpeper
A triumph of DIY cinema, Andrew and Will filmed their black-comedy in 6 days at locations in Boise, Garden City, Nampa, and Kuna with an all-volunteer cast and crew of over 50 individuals for a total budget of $498.00. Now thats indie!
Mr. Jerichoboss of the local Boise mafiahas a problem: the books arent adding up. Jericho hires a professional assassin, Jack, from Chicago to deal with the three underlings who are the presumed source of the financial discrepancies. As Jack tracks down the culprits, the real story of whats wrong in Boise comes to light.

text: well I guess I was given bad info yesterday, the paper clarified it today. The judge DID rule on the temp restraining order, and it wasn't in our favor. The A.S.A. local chapter dropped the ball IMO. Anyway, the next hearing is on the 26th of June, but it's a preliminary injunction hearing which could,but not likely halt it there. It's gonna come down to the law suit now, which will prolly be a while. Long story short, I'm FUCKED for this season. I called on a property rental up north an spoke to the owner for likie half an hour on the phone, and it sounds like I'm moving again. It's not gonna help me much this season, but maybe I'll be set for next year. This rental is not too far from a friend of mine property where I could throw some plants this year, but it's gonna be a major pain in the ass this late......it realy sucks to be me right now!

22 June 1998 10:43 [Source: ICIS news]
LONDON (CNI)--Kemira Chemicals is to buy Hanwha Chemical's 34 000 tonne/year hydrogen peroxide plant at Ulsan, South Korea, the Finnish company announced Monday.
As part of the deal, Hanwha will continue to supply hydrogen feedstock and utilities to the plant, said Juhani Lindholm, executive vice president of Kemira's pulp and paper chemicals division. Financial details of the deal were not disclosed. The plant's net sales are estimated at $28m.
Kemira's supervisory board will make the final decision within two weeks and the closing date for the deal is within one month, said Lindholm.
Most of the plant's employees will keep their jobs, although details are still under discussion, he said.
Yrjo Sipila, Kemira's president, believes the pulp and paper industries, and other users of hydrogen peroxide, will show strong growth in South Korea and other Asian markets. Kemira is already involved in a 25 000 tonne/year hydrogen peroxide joint venture in Ube, Japan with Ube Industries.
Hanwha, one of South Korea's largest chemical companies, has also said it intends to sell its newly started-up polypropylene business as part of its restructuring. It has already sold its stake in Hanwha-BASF Urethane, and its sister company Hanwha Energy plans to sell its refinery unit.

on what he had learned to his masters in Tokyo. Duly read at Bletchley Park, his messages included crucial information about German defences in Normandy as well as significant insights into German strategic intentions.
Yet long before the breaking of 'Purple', British codebreakers working at the Far East Combined Bureau (FECB) in Hong Kong had begun to penetrate the secrets of Japanese naval codes, and were using machines to do so. In 1939, the British codebreaking genius John Tiltman, an infantry officer who had won the Military Cross in the trenches of the First World War, made the first vital break into JN25, the main Japanese naval code. Another outstanding protagonist in the story was Er ic Nave, an Australian naval officer and Japanese linguist who was lent to the British in the 1920s. Sadly, his reputation was later tarnished when the coauthor of his 1991 memoirs Betrayal at Pearl Harbor, James Rusbridger, distorted the text to make it conform to Rusbridger's own now discredited conspiracy theories.
Unfortunately, after Japan's onslaught on British possessions in the region, the FECB was forced to move to a succession of safer locations and its work was seriously disrupted. Gradually, and inevitably, the Americans took over the lead in attacking the emperor's codes. As Smith graphically shows, however, the campaign was always a combined effort that brought together British, American, Australian and Dutch codebreakers. The Japanese were extremely skilled in guarding their secrets. So, too, were the US naval codebreakers, and at times bitter inter-allied turf wars caused serious crises. But in the end, the needs of war knocked heads sensibly together.
Smith provides plenty of technical information, including three appendices, to satisfy even the most ardent lover of cryptography. But less numerate readers are far from short-changed. Some of the book's most fascinating reading lies in the personal testimonies of the many veterans that Smith has interviewed. 'Anything', confesses one, 'was better than learning to march and salute.' While some were frontline codebreakers, others formed part of the massive army of intercept operators and translators whose work made the whole operation both possible and useful. Suddenly shipped overseas to far-flung outposts in Asia, they found themselves working intensely with others in close encounters, leaving indelible memories that now spring fresh from the page. Many were Wrens. One, quoted extensively by Smith, recalls an off-duty l i fe in Colombo where glamorous boyfriends, invariably junior naval officers, would take them to dinner dances where the lights were low, the food was gorgeous, and their dresses were garlanded with fresh flowers. 'It was heady stuff for girls of our age,' she recalls, 'and there was usually the knowledge that the boyfriend would be leaving for India or Burma soon, perhaps never to return.' Michael Smith is to be thanked for reminding us so vividly of the human side of what, indeed, was a legendary achievement. To order this book for £7.99, see LR Bookshop on page 10
LITERARY REVIEW February 2011 HISTORY
By David E Hoffman (Icon Books 577pp £20)
THE DEAD HAND is the first non-religious book I can recall that is claimed by its British publishers to be 'hugely revered'. Despite the overblown encomiums of Icon Books, however, this is an important, well-written volume that makes a major contribution to our understanding of the last decade of the Cold War and its aftermath.
David Hoffman begins by reminding us that there was no sign at the start of the 1980s that the Cold War was enter ing its final decade. On the contrary, relations between the superpowers were more tense than at any moment since the Cuban Missile Cr isis. The combined strateg ic arsenals of the United States and the Soviet Union had an explosive power a million times that of the atomic bomb which had obliterated Hiroshima. The tensions of the nuclear arms race were exacerbated by what Hoffman reasonably identifies as a 'paranoid' strain in the Soviet leadership, which feared that the notoriously anti-Communist administration of President Ronald Reagan was planning a nuclear first strike against the Soviet Union.
Intelligence Service (better known as SIS or MI6) during the final decade of the Cold War. On the two most intractable problems facing British policymakers – the mindset of the Soviet leadership in the pre-Gorbachev era and the progress of the Soviet biological warfare programme – SIS provided surprising and important information not available from any other source.
SIS's most important Soviet source during the decade that led up to Gorbachev's rise to power was an ideological agent and secret dissident within the KGB's foreign intelligence arm, Oleg Gordievsky. After Gordievsky returned to Moscow to work at KGB HQ in 1978, SIS considered it too dangerous to run him. When, to the delight of SIS, he was posted to the KGB's London station in 1982 and able to resume his career as a British agent, his intelligence transfor med Br itish understanding of Soviet policy. Gordievsky revealed that the KGB and GRU (Soviet military intelligence) were jointly engaged in the largest peacetime intelligence operation in their history to discover the presumed but non-existent plans of the Reagan administration for a surprise nuclear attack on the Soviet Union.
In November 1983 Moscow even f eared that a NATO exercise codenamed ABLE ARCHER might be used as cover for a real attack. Several years later I had the oppor tunity to get to know Gordievsky and work with him on some of the top secret KGB documents he had smuggled out of its London station. Despite his modesty, it was clear that he had taken extraordinary risks to alert the West to the underlying delusions of Soviet policy.
Searching for buried anthrax on Vozrozhdeniye Island
At the time of the NATO exercise in November 1983 the significance of Gordievsky's intelligence was better g rasped by Reagan
Hoffman's account of the nuclear arms race is not, as the subtitle suggests, an 'untold story'. Much of it has been told before. Far more original is his account of the top-secret Soviet biological warfare programme conducted in defiance of international law, which was on a far larger scale than almost anyone in the West suspected and is still underestimated by many studies of the Cold War. Hoffman cites persuasive evidence that one of the aims of the programme was to weaponise the pneumonic plague which during the Black Death of the mid-fourteenth century may have wiped out up to one-third of the English population. As one British weapons expert later put it: 'You do not choose plague to put on the battlefield. You choose plague because you're going to take out the other person's country.'
than by some of the CIA's most senior analysts. The President wrote in his diary: 'I feel the Soviets are ... so paranoid about being attacked that, without in any way being soft on them, we ought to tell them no one here has any intention of doing anything like that.' Almost overnight Reagan dropped the 'Evil Empire' rhetoric that had helped to stoke Russian paranoia. By contrast the US National Intelligence Officer for the Soviet Union, Fritz Ermarth, insisted that signs of Soviet alarm at US intentions were mere propaganda: 'We believe strongly that Soviet actions are not inspired by, and Soviet leaders do not perceive, a genuine danger of imminent conflict or confrontation with the United States.'
Though The Dead Hand deals far more with US than with British policy, it underlines the importance of the intelligence on the Soviet Union provided by the Secret
There is an interesting comparison between Hoffman's impressively balanced assessment of Reagan's strengths and weaknesses and the dismissive assessments of Reagan

Beyond Jamestown
After the colony was founded, 400 years ago this month, Capt. John Smith set out to explore the riches of Chesapeake Bay. With Smith's journals to guide him, a modern-day sailor retraces that historic voyage

(Page 5 of 10)
Captain Jack did not stay long on the river. While feasting with the now-friendly Nanticoke, he heard that tribes on the bay's Western Shore could describe the territory to the west and any Northwest Passage out of the bay. Soon, Smith set off down the Nanticoke and across the bay. We did the same, crossing through what is today Hooper Strait.
"So broad is the Bay here," Smith wrote, "we could scarce perceive the great high cliffs on the other side." Suddenly, as the morning mist cleared, we experienced one of those electric moments when his journal came alive. What he saw, we saw: the Calvert Cliffs, just north of the mouth of the Patuxent River, gleaming on the horizon.
They dominate the landscape, and from a distance, they must have looked promising to Smith. This, surely, was the route to gold and silver and the Orient.
It was nothing of the sort, of course, as Smith would learn. But for us, there was another reward: the insight of scientists at the Chesapeake Biological Laboratory. It is an arm of the University of Maryland's Center for Environmental Science, a leading research institution on the bay. At the CBL campus on Solomon's Island, I ask Walter Boynton, a senior scientist who has studied the bay for three decades, what Captain Jack would have seen beneath his shallop as he explored the Chesapeake.
"Really clear water," Boynton says. "He could see the bottom at 30 feet. Today, we can only see a few feet down. Smith would have found scores of different kinds of fish, oysters and clams, maybe 13 or 14 species of sea grass. The rivers would have been deeper, able to take transatlantic shipping up to the fall line."
Ed Houde, a fishery expert at CBL, says Smith would have encountered "huge amounts of oysters—100 times or more than what we have today, and more rockfish and larger fish. Remember, as late as the 1890s, watermen were harvesting at least 15 million bushels of oysters a year, compared with maybe 100,000 today....There could have been billions of oysters on the bottom. The reefs were so tall that they could break the surface at low tide."
Despite the bay's natural bounty, Smith's crew was wearing out as the men continued their journey up the bay's Western Shore. Barely two weeks out of Jamestown, they had survived repeated thunderstorms, fought off assaults from Indians and seen their fresh water run low. Nearly mutinous, they now begged Smith to return to Jamestown.
Instead, he delivered a pep talk: "As for your fears that I will lose myself in these unknown large waters, or be swallowed up in some stormy gust," he told his men, "abandon these childish fears, for worse than is passed is not likely to happen and there is as much danger to return as to proceed."
