On Monday, approximately 1,000 students at Henderson County High School will hear about the consequences of prescription drug abuse. Kentucky Attorney General Jack Conway and Van Ingram, Executive Director of the Kentucky Office of Drug Control Policy, will speak to students.
Ingram told WKU Public Radio that an alarming number of teens have been experimenting with prescription medications in the state and region. He says that experimentation is especially dangerous because many young people are taking medications that may interact with other pills they have taken. State officials in Kentucky say autopsy results from those dying from prescription overdose frequently find that a "cocktail" mixture of pills.

The Buena Vista women's soccer team was back inside of J. Leslie Rollins Stadium to host its first Iowa Conference opponent of the season, and the Beavers were handed its first home loss of the year, falling 1-0 in double overtime to Coe College (7-3-1, 1-1 IIAC) on Friday evening.
In a match that was a defensive battle from start to finish, senior Kellyn Arnold nearly put BVU out in front with less than a minute to go in regulation, but her header off of a Shelby Ripperger corner kick fell straight into the hands of the Kohawks keeper to send the game into overtime.
Neither team was able to find the back of the net in the first overtime and it was just more than two minutes into the second overtime when Coe slid one past a diving Jaclyn Pfeifer.
Coe held the advantage in shots in the first half, 7-2, before the Beavers stormed back in the second half to hold a 6-1 edge.
Arnold and Ripperger each added two shots, including one on-goal, to help lead the Beavers.
Pfeifer finished with five saves, defensively, for the Beavers.
Buena Vista is now 8-3-1 overall (0-2 IIAC) and will look to end its three-match losing skid when it returns to the field on Wednesday, October 3, to play host to Iowa Wesleyan College in a 2:00pm non-conference contest. It returns to league play next Saturday by hosting Luther College.

You may have family photo albums full of people smoking at every type of event, from birthday parties to company picnics. That's because smoking was once accepted pretty much everywhere — even in doctor's offices. But that changed as we learned more about the health problems it causes.
If you have asthma, smoking is especially risky because of the damage it does to the lungs.
When someone smokes, he or she may cough, wheeze, and feel short of breath. This is because smoke irritates the airways, causing them to become swollen, narrow, and filled with sticky mucus. These are the same things that happen during an asthma flare-up. That's why smoking can cause asthma flare-ups to happen more often. Those flare-ups may be more severe and harder to control, even with medicine.
You may have started smoking because all your friends do or because you grew up in a house where lots of people smoked. Some people try smoking because they are curious or bored. No matter why you started, if you're thinking about quitting, it would probably help your asthma.
Smoking can undo the effect of any controller medicine you're taking. It also can force you to use your rescue medicine more often. It can also disturb your sleep by making you cough more at night and can affect how well you perform in sports or other physical activities. Worst of all, it can send you to the emergency department with a severe asthma flare-up.
If you decide to quit smoking, you don't have to go it alone. Seek the support of others who are also trying to quit. You also might ask your doctor about medication or different strategies that can help you crave cigarettes less.
Even if you don't smoke, you may still run into smoky situations in restaurants, parties, or even at home if one of your family members smokes. Secondhand smoke is a known asthma trigger, so you'll want to avoid it as much as possible if you have asthma.
If you hang out with smokers or have a family member who smokes in the house, you are likely to have more frequent and severe asthma symptoms. You may have to take more medicine and your asthma may be harder to control. Finally, you may find yourself at the doctor's office or emergency department more often because of asthma symptoms.
There's not much you can do about other people's behavior, but you should let your friends and family know that what they are doing is making your asthma worse. Ask them not to smoke in your house or car. It's your air, after all.

Yankee Pier - Larkspur
Online Reservations
This lovely restaurant tucked away in picturesque Larkspur is simply one of the best fish and seafood places you'll ever go to. Everything is fresh and delicious, and portions just right. Best of all, it is really relaxed and unpretentious - you can hang out on the patio or the front porch and sip your wine in the balmy Marin air, while your kids play in the sandpit (a favorite hangout). Staff are friendly and good at their jobs.
Meal was very good: fish prepared to perfection, as were side dishes. After several visits here over the years, we have come to the conclusion that the menu is difficult for us in some way that is difficult to specify...I don't know exactly what this is about, might just be us (though this is not a frequent experience for us). But that is our repeated experience: we find it hard to find dishes that really "fit" what we want. So, despite our appreciation of the quality of the food and the pleasantness of the atmosphere, we don't return here very often. This is disappointing, because we love to eat fish, and Yankee Pier would appear to be a great option for us...too bad it doesn't quite come together.
fresh deliciously. prepared food. had a great waiter too
Being there with a 8 month old baby. The personal was outstanding, the food was excellent and the place very nice and convenient! We will come back!!!
It was just a lovely experience. The food was excellent and of the highest quality. Our waiter Luke, couldnot have been more gracious, friendly, or nicer. Very attentive and never rushed us. A delightful experience which made a warm Mother's Day very special out on the back patio.
From beginning to end of our dining experience the staff at Yankee Pier made us feel welcomed and were genuinely happy that we were there. The food was mouth watering delicious and Chef Alex even visited our table. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone. Make a special trip to Larkspur to go there...it is worth it!
Everything was superb. "moderate" noise level only because the patio, where we chose to eat among three options, is near Magnolia Ave in Larkspur, a bustling street during the day. note, however, that traffic is slow in this quaint town, and foot traffic consists of easygoing folks of all ages. We had no trouble conversing w/ease. The patio is arbored above and in front with ancient wisteria, a lovely sound buffer. Both kid-friendly and romantic are chosen because, besides 2 moms w/buggies on the patio w/us, at night (i've also had supper at yankee pier), lights are low and tables small. i called in advance to be sure I could use an ancient gift certificate. After our meal, the whole team had a good laugh at just how old: 10 years!
Nice to have dinner with friends. Staff was courteous, and accommodating, and friendly. The food was very good, and plentiful.
Fantastic service and excellent fish tacos. Only reason not a 5 for food is that tacos contained very small amounts of fish. Fish was prepared well, just small amounts. Service really stands out--everyone from the front to the server were really great!!
The children ages 3, 5, 7 9 enjoyed the food and the sand box too. The servers did a great job for all 10 of us.
Chef Alex prepared some terrific food for us. A salmon tartar with chive blossoms was terrific. Enjoyed perfectly fried Ipswich clams with perfect tartar sauce. Superb lemon meringue pie that they were making just as we were ready to order. They have really great seafood which you know is fresh because it changes daily. Very pleasant patio and friendly service. Such a comfortable place.
We moved here over 1 year ago and this was our first restaurant and continues to be a solid choice for really good seafood and the Butterscotch Pudding is outstanding.
We had oysters lobsters and champagne Very Enjoyable
Dined outside on the deck. Weather was warm for enjoying the redwood and other tall trees that grew along the creek. July is 1/2 price any bottle on the wine list. Double the fun because we ordered a bottle of both red and white that complimented the fish dishes. Fun night. No rush to order, eat and run. Waitress allowed a good feeling for enjoyable dining. This Restaurant was service oriented in a good way. The busboys came around to remove plates at the right moment. Kudos to everyone.
I was born in Ipswich. Raised on Ipswich fried and steamed clams. Worked at Woodman's. These are done the right way, always fresh and tasty!
Fried clams were great, only surpassed by the service augmented by Chris, the friendly and attentive manager.
Neighborhood place. Very casual. !/2 off wine in July. Special was a pork chop. Had never had anything but fish before. Delicious choice. Seared in a grainy mustard reduction. Grilled peaches and escarole. Husband had fish and chips and Caesar salad. Always good. Parking can be difficult with all the other restaurants on Magnolia in just a few blocks. Nice night to walk.
We've been going to Yankee Pier in Larkspur for several years. The food and service rarely disappoint. The seafood tastes fresh and is expertly prepared. My wife and 11 year-old daughter love the fish tacos, while I relish the seared yellowfin tuna with olive oil mashed potatoes on the side. The wine list is pretty good and they stock some popular labels. My wife and I were saddened that they stopped carrying La Crema. The staff is professional, friendly, and very accommodating. Overall, we give this neighborhood gem a very solid 4 stars. We hope to continue enjoying the food, service, and welcoming atmosphere at Yankee Pier in Larkspur for years to come.
the sun went down and it was great dining with our grandaughter on the patio. Great find for kids - 2 boys were in the sandbox most of the time. Their parents were quite thrilled with this. The Syrah rose seemed to be a great wine for the warm evening dinner. A great time. R
Love that you can choose your fish and have it cooked the way you like and choose your sides. It's a little pricey.
We were a group of nine for lunch. All the food was good and no one was unsatisfied.
This is our special treat place when we are in the mood for fantastic seafood or fish prepared either with fresh, local ingredients or in traditional styles. The top quality and creativity are hallmarks, along with great, friendly service, and generous portions. I had a fresh sardine and heirloom tomato salad with lemon cucumbers that I'm still dreaming about. My husband ordered his favorite fried shrimp and chips. The food is consistent. The wine list is as creative and high quality as the menu and everything is fresh and attractively served. The desserts - when we remember to leave room - are often ice cream or cream pie but occasionally they make stone fruit desserts and those are amazing!
Had my daughters 45 th b day luncheon on a Sat afternoon. Gkids ages 10,12,14. Perfect for everyone. They presented a surprise dessert. Very thoughtful.
The food gets better and better. The staff always makes us feel welcome. We go here regularly for a friendly meal in a nice setting. Thank you!
Always enjoy our experience at Yankee Pier! The staff is awesome!
It was wild mushroom and Pinot Noir week - so creative the entrees the chef designed around that. Sole cooked to perfection wi a little crusty without being overdone - with fresh clams in the shell, wild mushrooms, then mashed potatoes to die for - all paired with the best pinot i have ever had: smooth as silk. and we got there early and started with happy hour $1 fresh oysters - delicious.My husband had sauteed prawns that were also cooked perfectly. The waiter had suggested the way to have the prawns cooked, which was spot on, as the parawns were still juicy, yet had a crispy side too. Go!
One of the best things about this restaurant is the choices. You can pick from fresh fish and have it cooked any way you want. Then you get your choice of sides. Waiter was very knowledgeable about best way to cook the fish I selected. I think it is a bit pricey for what you get but food was delicious and service almost perfection. Towards end of meal the restaurant got busy and our waiter tied up but other staff was alert to this and refilled our coffee cups.
You don't really need an occasion to visit Yankee Pier. It's a great place to just stop in and have the best fish tacos around. An incredible seafood menu also has a super burger and a great flatiron steak. One great thing is Yankee Pier's association with Seafood Watch, which adds a certain level of confidence that the fish on your plate is high quality and was caught using the best methods.
Had a wonderful meal of fresh seafood, perfectly prepared, with attentive and friendly service.
Great Caesar salad! Wonderful bread with a great crust! Excellent food. The only minus is they don't have an espresso machine! Boo Hoo.

From big game to beaches
Family holidays in Africa
Africa has a lot to offer families, but it's important to visit places that actively welcome children, rather than simply accept them. Africa isn't ideal for babies or very small children, who should avoid areas with malaria. However for interested children, who are old enough to understand what they see, Africa can be an amazing and inspiring place.
Private houses and villas can be ideal for families. In recent years, we've seen more families travelling together, and a rise in small groups of like-minded friends sharing a trip. Both work best when they have their own space and flexibility in their meals and activities. Often a private villa can be an ideal solution, and many of these come with their own private chef and even a private safari guide.
Family holidays in South Africa's Cape
South Africa's Cape is free of malaria and the obvious choice for families with small children – so many, many places welcome children. What's more, self-drive trips here (and in Namibia) enable you to travel at your own pace and stop where you like to explore – so the Cape is the first Africa stop for many families.Picking the best family options is difficult because of the vast choice, but a few stand out. In Cape Town the Vineyard Hotel is very comfortable, and has all the facilities for children that you'd expect in a large hotel like cots available and a child-minding service, plus large gardens in which to play, a great swimming pool, etc.
On the Cape's southern coast, Grootbos Private Nature Reserve is an outstanding option for families because of its dedicated activities for younger visitors – which vary from early-morning pony-feeding, to petting sessions with small farm animals, pony- and horse-riding, and guided beachcombing and bug-collecting.
Further east, Hog Hollow is a great-value option for families, with a friendly team; fun, funky family rooms; and it's close to some lovely self-guided walking trails around the forests and beaches of Tsitsikamma National Park.
In the game parks of the Eastern Cape, the fairly economic Elephant House makes a comfortable base for self-drive trips including Addo Elephant Park – it's close to the gate and very family-friendly. For guided game-viewing experience, Ecca Lodge welcomes children and is a good choice, whilst its sister-camps on Kwandwe Private Game Reserve, Uplands Homestead or Melton Manor, are usually booked for exclusive occupancy – ideal if you're looking for the flexibility of a private villa, and don't mind a fairly high price tag.
(See more of our top places for family holidays in the Cape…)
Family trips to Namibia
In Namibia, many smaller guest farms and lodges welcome children. New Bushmen playmates at Nhoma can be wonderful, whilst active children will relish the hands-on approach at Mundulea. Sand-boarding and kayaking near Swakopmund are tremendous fun and Sossusvlei is perhaps the world's largest sandpit! Meanwhile, the national park restcamps in Etosha have four-bed bungalows suitable for self-driving families – and many of the countries lodges have 'family rooms' where parents and children have adjoining bedroom, sharing a bathroom.For great privacy and flexibility, both Okonjima and Mushara have excellent private villas, whilst Wolwedans also has a 'private camp' that can be booked by small parties.
(Read more about the best spots for family holidays in Namibia…)
Family holidays in Zambia
Many of Zambia's safari camps are small and run directly by their owner – some of whom will have children, or at least have brought up their own children there. Because of this, these can be very welcoming to families. This would include smaller, family-owned camps, like Tafika, Chiawa Camp and Chongwe River Camp.Across Africa, there are relatively few lodges in big game areas which are really family-friendly, but Zambia's 'safari houses' are. They run with their own guide, activities and chef and they stand out for offering not only great safaris for small groups of adults, but also for opening up some of Africa's wilder areas to families. There is nothing 'toy' or 'cut-down' about these safaris; they offer great areas, top guides and excellent game, but with the high degree of flexibility that families need.
First among these, Robin's House was designed for four guests. More recently, the imaginative new Luangwa Safari House and Chongwe River House are both designed for up to eight people. The old Manor House at Shiwa Ng'andu feels like a private stately home and Tangala House, near Livingstone, is the private house of the owner of the nearby Tongabezi Lodge!
(Read more about family-friendly lodges in Zambia…)
Family trips to Botswana
In Botswana, there are a handful of camps which cater well for children – although most will insist that each family staying books its own private guide and vehicle. This means your activities are very flexible. Many camps, including DumaTau, Chitabe Lediba, Jao, Savuti, Seba Camp and Vumbura Plains all have large family rooms – with inter-connecting bedrooms. This is surprisingly important, as families don't want to have walk outside to go between bedrooms at night if there are wild animals around.At many of Botswana safari camps some we can also, for a further cost, arrange a specialist children's guide for you whilst you stay. Some camps go further: Sandibe and Nxabega are generally very child-friendly, even publishing their own fun quiz books for children; whilst Edo's Camp and Footsteps operate a 'Young Explorers' safari especially for families – which aims to introduce the children to fun activities in the bush.
For families or small groups who want effectively their own private safari camp, there isn't a great choice in Botswana – unless you're willing to book out one of the many smaller (16-bed) camps. However, one obvious choice would be the Villa Okavango near Abu Camp, but talk to us for more information about staying in exclusive small camps here.
(See more of Botswana's top lodges for family holidays…)
The privately-guided safaris in our Wild about Africa brochure also work brilliantly: private mobile trips based partly at Santantadibe Reserve have usually been a huge success with families – they operate entirely to your schedule. (Read more about privately-guided family safaris in Botswana…)
Family trips to Tanzania and Zanzibar
In northern Tanzania, our private-guided safaris can work very well for families with older children – and the 'per person' costs usually reduces as more people join a trip. We don't usually recommend these for younger children though, and the drives can be long and dusty.In southern Tanzania, several camps welcome older children including Impala Camp, Ruaha River Lodge and Mwagusi Camp.
Tanzania's more family-friendly beach locations include Breezes Beach Club on Zanzibar and Chumbe Island, which is geared towards informing as well as entertaining. Meanwhile in the Mafia Archipelago, both Chole Mjini Lodge and Pole Pole are understanding towards the needs of children and Kinasi Lodge has a lovely family room.
Part of Sand Rivers, Kiba Point is a private family-sized camp which will take a group of up to eight, staying in four neighbouring cottages. Identical in size, the Lukula Selous Camp offers an amazing amount of flexibility in a vast private area. Zanzibar's highly original Kikadini Villas combine the seclusion of several funky private houses with the facilities of a small hotel.
(See more of our top places for family holidays in Tanzania and family holidays in Zanzibar)
Family holidays in Mozambique
Mozambique's Indigo Bay caters well to families, including supervised games in a children's club. As an alternative Indian Ocean retreat, Bazaruto Lodge has its own two-bedroom villa.(See more of our top places for family holidays in Mozambique…)
Family holidays in the Seychelles
Further east, the malaria-free Seychelles offer super seaside family holidays – and with no malaria on the islands, they're generally ideal for family holidays. A few places that stand out include the Turtle Club at Lémuria Resort, which has a very professional and well-equipped children's club; all the beach-side villas on North Island, where their own lounge/office easily becomes a sumptuous bedroom for two; and on a much simpler level, the self-catering villas at Les Villas d'Or offer flexibility and great value. Other family-friendly self-catering places include the value-conscious Côte d'Or Chalets and the more luxurious Banyan Tree.(Read more about our best lodges for family holidays in the Seychelles…)

Boombox Pc To view this case mod, go here. Specs: Asus P8 H77-I board i7-3770 chip. 8GB of RAM 500GB HDD 1TB HDD This is the second custom box I have made and it looks much better than my first which was made out of an 80's old VCR. I bought this late 70's early 80's radio in a market in Seoul and gutted it. I bought the Components and made the brackets at home.
Love it. I especially like that you didn't do anything to change its appearance on the outside. Those fans look like they're meant to go there. Great job!
nice case and very very creative, if you could make it less cables. it would be better by using bluetooth stuff (mouse, keyboard, network)

I recently did a couple of recordings using my new iPhone 4, and ran into a problem that others have been having regarding syncing Voice Memos to/from iTunes from Apple devices running iOS4. I have managed to work around the problem, without resorting to deleting the memos in question. Hopefully this can be useful to some. The main caveat is that this will only work for users running Windows.
You must make sure that your device is not syncing with iTunes when using this guide. Close iTunes completely before follwing any of the steps below.
Update 16th July 2010
Some users are reporting that the files appearing in the iPhone Browser window are M4A as opposed to MOV detailed below. If this is the case, then you should be able to transfer the voice memos directly from the device as detailed below without any conversion. I would suggest that you check each voice memo all of the way through before deleting it from your device to check that it hasn't been corrupted or mis-converted. If all memos play correctly, then you can remove them within the app.
Step 1 – Download iPhone Browser
iPhone Browser bypasses iTunes, allowing you to access the files directly on your device rather than going through iTunes. It should be noted that this is third party software and is not supported in any way by Apple, and is provided with no warranty, however I have used it and tested that it works.
Download iPhone Browser and install it. Connect your device, and start iPhone Browser. It should automatically connect to your device and show its contents. The screen should look like the one on the left (click the image to view a larger version).
Step 2 – Save the Memos
Navigate to the Recordings folder in the list on the left – you will then see a list of files. From here, I suggest that you save all of the files to a temporary folder on your hard drive. If you want to select multiple files, hold the "Control" key and click on the files to save. When you have the files selected, right-click on any highlighed file and click "Save As", and choose a location to save to – for simplicity, I suggest creating a folder called Temp in your user's home folder (you'll see why later).
Even though iTunes saves voice memos as M4A files, the files you need to save are the MOV files (QuickTime video). I believe that iTunes transcodes these into m4a when syncing, which could explain the high CPU usage and "hangs" that users are reporting – in fact iTunes is still working, but transcoding the files into M4A.
Once the files have transferred, you can then close iPhone Browser, delete them from your device within the Voice Memo app, re-launch iTunes and the device should sync properly.
Step 3 – Converting MOV to MP3/M4A
Playing the MOV files in any player will not give you usable audio. You then need to extract the audio data from the file. The command-line utility FFMPEG is a very handy tool for manipulating multimedia, you can download a Windows version here (I have uploaded it to my own webspace for ease of access, as the distributable version is .
Download FFMPEG, and move the file into the same folder as your MOV files. Open a command prompt by pressing Windows+R and typing "cmd" into the box. By default, the window should have the path to your home directory loaded. Type "cd <foldername>" (without quotes) to move into that folder. For example "cd Temp" will move into the Temp folder. Now run the following command to extract the audio from the MOV file:
ffmpeg -i file.mov audio.mp3
Substitute file.mov for the filename of the MOV file, and FFMPEG will convert the audio into a file called audio.mp3.
If you would like the audio in m4a format, just replace "audio.mp3″ with "audio.m4a" and FFMPEG will automatically convert it. The output should look something like the image on the left (as before, click for a larger version).
You can then move the MP3/M4A files into your iTunes library to sync with the rest of your music if you like.
Hope that's been some help! If you have any questions or queries, please comment

The focus of the presidential campaign so far has been the economy and more specifically jobs and it will likely continue that way.
Here to talk about that another labor issues is the president of the AFL CIO Richard Trumka thanks for being here -- -- from me on appreciate.
Do you think President Obama has led.
On the issue of jobs.
I think -- starting to -- more effectively.
But He got off into the notion of talking about debt ceiling and debt reduction all that stuff they forgot about the primary focus and the number one issue on everybody's mind and that's jobs.
And I think He made a very very important step when He introduced the job back I think that's a necessary step.
For us to start.
The national conversation about jobs and ending the jobs crisis because at one point you said you were frustrated and upset.
And that the White House is making strategic mistakes.
Your past that now.
Well -- have to we'll see about the results of -- He said He was gonna fight for those bills and he's been doing that.
He introduced a bill which was in -- important first step.
He's been going from city to city talking about the necessity for job creation.
He's putting the focus on jobs and I think that's what every worker in America really wants the focus on job creation.
How are obligated are you the President Obama in this reelection effort.
How obligated -- how committed is -- organization to helping him.
Financially I -- you've been talking about being more independent.
With -- -- money and using it differently than perhaps in years past.
Is that true.
Well we're we are gonna be more independent.
We're gonna be more independent because we're gonna build a structure that speaks for working people.
Union people and hopefully non -- people as well to get their interest out -- so every dollar we put into our structure.
We'll have it there to help workers afterwards then after the election.
Unlike in the past will keep our our rough.
Structure in place.
To be able to go from -- -- politics advocacy to accountability pretty seamlessly so not necessarily directly to the Democratic Party.
Know some will some more will do a lot more of our own build our own structure.
Let's talk about the jobs bill and the specifically the taxes part.
Here was President Obama in 2009.
And what He was saying about raising taxes.
The last thing you want to do is to raise taxes in the middle of recession.
Because that would just suck up.
Take more demand the economy and put businesses.
-- -- further -- so what do you think his change now.
I think he's finally can do -- senses about about that the book.
Leave the room to be -- a -- with a lot for a long time they haven't been paying their fair share if we're ever gonna get out of this hole.
If -- ever wanna reduce the deficits and create jobs they have to pay their fair share now's the time for them to do that think the CBO's shed.
That if the bush tax cuts expire.
The deficit we cut in half over the next five years.
That's a significant step with the IRS says that 1% of households pay 38%.
Of federal income tax is the top 10% of households.
Pay 70%.
Of federal income taxes and then you have the estimate that 47%.
Roughly of households pay.
Zero federal income -- so is that not paying their fair share.
Well I think -- -- -- -- share than they have been in the past.
There's more of the loop -- that have been built in this thing you have corporations that are paying question of rich people are paying less.
Look they're paying less now than they did when Bill Clinton was creating hundreds of thousands of jobs every month.
What's the future of labor.
I think we got a break preacher we were attacked this year and a number of the states by people like Scott Walker.
And Jon -- second things like that trying to wait.
Take away collective bargaining rights -- we've been trying to have a debate about collective bargaining for ten years just.
Been difficult to have.
He gave the senate debate and the good news is we're winning it.
Most Americans seventy some percent of Americans think the workers ought to have.
The right to collective bargaining they know their wages have been stagnating they know that the wage gap has been growing they -- that -- -- -- doing exceptionally well.
But the average Americans getting behind and they need collective bargaining so that they can get a little bit more and so that they can create demand.
By wages in mind -- Wisconsin you lost that battle.
No we did lose a battle.
Quite contrary.
We didn't lose a little we had death.
In 2000 and eight.
President Obama won Wisconsin by fourteen points.
And the six people that we recall.
One by a like number they were to six strongest Republican districts in that state.
We took two of them out -- -- we got 49%.
Plus votes percent the votes in those six strong Republican district.
And we lost a little bit -- we took two of them out that means.
That 49 only forty or fifty plus 1% of the Republicans in the state -- those districts.
Really think that you gotta take away collective bargaining.
That's present workers and the governor Walker's plan is still in intact and a prayer or you're just saying that you have more work to do there.
Well temporal well -- here's what else happened we organize my new hospitals we brought 30000 new members into working America.
We're actually bigger and stronger right now though we were before He started his overreaching.
And that's what the American public saying we'll see what happens -- if.
-- -- is pushing the free trades.
Free trade deals with that Columbia South Korea.
And Panama you have sent a letter up about Columbia specifically listing names of 22 union leaders who have been killed in Columbia.
First of all just -- this will be passed number one number two -- Democrats who sign on to this and vote for it.
Well they have to pay.
With your group and the will you go after them in elections around the country.
Not just -- ripped -- to pay with workers.
I mean the best of -- American public vast majority of the American public.
Know that these trade -- so we've been negotiating haven't been good for the country they've cost us jobs millions of jobs.
-- for real cost us a 159000.
Jobs com mail costs us 55000 jobs but last year.
They assassinated.
Not not accidentally killed.
They assassinated 51 trade Unionist.
If 51 CEOs have been assassinated last year.
I don't think many people.
Would be talking about a trade -- with Columbia but this really is pushing in almost every stop we think those trade Unionists are every bit as important as CEO.
And we will -- about it because the bills are bad for the country.
And you'll fight that.
-- -- we will OKMR trumka thank you very much appreciate thanks very -- a labor of love.

Approved by Animal Institute Committee: 11/16/99
Reapproved: 6/15/11
Intraperitoneal (IP) administration of drugs is acceptable unless contra indicated by published side effects. IP administration of certain drugs such as Ketamine is preferable because the volume to be administered as well as its properties can cause local tissue necrosis when administered via the intramuscular route (IM).
The IP route of drug administration is not precluded as an option but must be performed carefully avoiding accidental perforation of the viscera. There are only a few examples of drugs for medium size animals such as rabbits in which the IP route is published as the recommended or acceptable route (eg. barbituates, midazolam). In general, investigators should follow the recommended dosing routes that are published in the most current laboratory animal formulary.
There is: a) more muscle mass available for safe IM injections; b) more skin available for administration of a subcutaneous (SC) injection; c) more accessible vasculature for intravenous (IV) injection therefore these routes of drug administration are encouraged in these larger animals unless there is a good and justifiable reason to use the IP route of drug administration.
NOTE: Investigators using the IP route for drug administration should learn the necessary skills and anatomy to use this route so as to minimize any side effects that may result from an improper IP injection.

Anything that is delivered to an end user from one hosted service over the Internet is a form of cloud computing. There are three main types: IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS.

text: 245 FXUS62 KTAE 052025 AFDTAE AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TALLAHASSEE FL 325 PM EST Thu Dec 5 2013 ...Record High Temperatures Today Across The Tri-State Area... .NEAR TERM [Through Tonight]... Breaks in the cloud cover have let us warm up enough to already reach or surpass the forecast area highs. We`ve already broken our record high of 81 today at TLH with a high so far of 82, as well as broken the record highs of 78 at DHN and 81 at VLD with highs so far of 82 and 84 respectively. The 18Z surface analysis shows the front is making slow and steady eastward progress. Isentropic ascent ahead of the front is continuing to feed fairly heavy cloud cover and scattered showers, especially over our NWrn zones. With the tightened pressure gradient associated with the front, winds are becoming fairly gusty today with south winds occasionally gusting to around 20 MPH. Tonight, as the upper level jet reinforcing the surface front lifts NEward, the front will begin to lift NEward and will likely stay just to our NW. Rain chances will continue to be highest in our NWrn zones overnight. The other concern tonight is fog. With the high moisture content ahead of the front still over us and with winds calming down some overnight, areas of fog will affect much of the area. Fog should start setting up late tonight and last into tomorrow morning, similar to what we saw this morning. Overnight lows will be very warm once again, with temperatures in the mid 60s to around 60. && .SHORT TERM [Friday Through Saturday Night]... The long wave pattern will change little during this period with a mean trough axis over the western and central U.S. and a ridge extending from the northwest Caribbean northeast across South FL and then off the Eastern U.S. Seaboard. One short wave will lift northeastward from the base of the trough on Friday with another moving out into the Central Plains Saturday night. A cold front will reach our northwestern zones Friday night and then stall once it reaches a AAF-TLH-VLD line on Saturday. This front will remain stationary through Saturday night. Ahead of the front, unseasonably warm temperatures will continue. Highs on Friday will be in the lower 80s across most of the forecast area, except along the coast. The record at TLH of 83 should be safe however. Cooler air will arrive behind the front for Saturday with highs mainly in the 60s. Ahead of the front, it will stay mild with highs in the mid to upper 70s from Tallahassee and Valdosta southeastward. PoPs will be in the chance category with the highest rain chances coming post-frontal. && .LONG TERM [Sunday through Thursday]... The front will lift rapidly northward as a warm front on Sunday with temps once again surging to around 80 in the FL Big Bend with 70s elsewhere. One more warm day will occur on Monday before a stronger cold front crosses the entire forecast area from Monday night into Tuesday. We could see some isolated thunderstorms out ahead of the front Monday afternoon. Once again PoPs will be in the chance category. Much cooler air will arrive behind this front with daytime highs ranging from the mid 50s in Coffee County AL to around 70 in Dixie County FL. Wednesday will be the coolest day with highs in the 50s northwest of a TLH-VLD line. At this point, it does now appear that a freeze will occur, although lows will drop into the mid 30s across our extreme northwestern zones by sunrise Wednesday. TLH should get no lower than 40 degrees. && .AVIATION... [Through 18Z Friday] VFR-MVFR ceilings today with south winds occasionally gusting around 15-20 kt. Chances of showers through the day at ECP, DHN, and ABY. Later tonight and early morning tomorrow, we`re looking at another setup for IFR-LIFR fog at all terminals across the area. There is some disagreement amongst the models for which sites will go the lowest and how low they will go. For now, have widespread IFR-LIFR conditions across the entire region despite some focusing mostly on DHN/ECP and some focusing mostly on VLD/ABY. && .MARINE... Light to moderate onshore flow will continue over the coastal waters through Monday as high pressure remains anchored off the east coast. A front will slide into the western waters on Saturday briefly switching winds to offshore west of Apalachicola. This front will then lift back to the north Saturday night. A stronger front will cross the waters Monday night into Tuesday with winds reaching cautionary levels behind it. && .FIRE WEATHER... Relative humidity values will remain above critical thresholds through the forecast period, therefore no red flag conditions are expected in the near future. Dense fog may develop over the next several mornings. && .HYDROLOGY... Total rainfall amounts over the next 5 days should range from roughly an inch and a half northwest of Dothan to less than half an inch over the southeastern half of the HSA. This will have only minimal impacts on area rivers and streams. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

Turkey takes out Iran from enemy watchlist
Turkish PM

Create alert for National Security CouncilNational Security Council
Turkey is planning to remove Iran from a watchlist of nations it considers a specific threat to its national security, a newspaper said Monday. The updated list is contained in Turkey's security review produced by the country's National Security Council which will be adopted in October and will no longer refer to Iran as a "specific threat", the Milliyet newspaper said.
The review replaces a previous edition published five years ago, the report added.
The new document also downgrades the security threat presented by Greece, Milliyet reported.

Where's Pushing Onwards?
Other than that, awesome!
[Awesome Warning] Rock Band for use exclusively with people who are awesome and like music.
When we deal with big projects like this, we usually put together a preference list, saying- all things equal- this is the songs in order of how much we wanna do them. Pushing Onwards was #4, and when we decided on a 3-pack, it got squeezed out.
Nothing's saying we're only doing one pack though.
Sure hope you go for it, as I like it so much that I often start up VVVVVV just to listen to it! Yes, I know it's on youtube. It's just more.. awesome in-game.
Don't get me wrong, I love all the VVVVVV-songs, so I'm really happy we'll get the 3 you ARE doing right now!

Now let's talk about 1368. The Inland contract where Ferguson was supposedly forced in by Kwame.
This is Soave's $50 million contract. Soave under cross admits he is a multi-billionaire and doesn't even know how many companies he owns. He is a fortune 500 company. Rataj suggested he was worth $2 billion and he said no that's what he grossed annually.
Kwame is a newly elected mayor. Saove is one of the most important businessmen in the state. He supported Kwame's opponent. The first meeting he had was right after Kwame got elected. Who called that meeting. Kilpatrick went to him and said I want to extend the olive branch. He sits down and says that he wants to basically win him over. Talks to Soave and said you supported my opponent but I want to establish a relationship.
He's got the upper-hand, he's the billionaire. Kwame is a 31 year-old new mayor.
Soave says that after talking to some of his employees about 1368, he talks to Kwame about that and other things. So he goes there and this man is going to offer him an ultimatum.
Does that make any sense?
What did Soave say? When questioned by Rataj, said he wanted a good relationship with mayor in the town he works in.
He says that Kwame may have implied to use Ferguson.
Why is that important? Under oath, he says I think he may have implied it. Different from grand jury which is private. Testimony is public and is going to be in the media.
Rataj questioned him further and he said other things. Kwame never told him that he had to use Ferguson.
Fear of economic harm. This man who grosses billions annually is going to get crushed financially.
In one sequence of events, he said that Ferguson wanted a joint venture and he said he told him to eff himself. That's the real guy.
He does business all over the country and has relationships with politicians. All cities have favorite contractors and none of them have allegations of corruption.
1368 was never held up.
Charlie Williams, the subcontractor Soave wanted to use, did not have employees or equipment.
Ferguson had millions of dollars worth of equipment. Mr. Zervos testified that he bonded and insured him and never once had a complaint. He said that's special.
People try to get advantages all kinds of ways. Never happened once to him and he is supposed to be a crook.
Looking at document relating 1325 and 1368. Made sense that inland should get this contract. Not Lakeshore.
Latimer testified that contracts usually processed in 18 months.
Let's talk about the sinkhole. This was also never held up.
My colleague Mr. Thomas was able to get Bernard Parker III to say "wow" when confronted with the real story.
There were no interruptions on 1368. They were getting paid twice a month sometimes.
Now on to contract 864. No testimony on 864. Not a single witness on it.
On to Bernard Parker. Recall that I questioned under cross. He is tethered to the government. He acknowledged that he lied in this case on this witness stand, he said he would lie to suit his purpose.
Does that mean that you can trust what he tells you? It means I will lie when it suits my purpose. You certainly can't trust it.
