PEMBROKE - A faculty member at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke was killed Friday morning in a single-vehicle crash on Philadelphus Road, the Highway Patrol said.
Rohald Meneses, 38, an assistant professor in the Department of Sociology and Criminal Justice, was driving north in a 2006 Lincoln sedan when he ran off the right side of the road at 1:34 a.m. about two miles north of Pembroke, according to a report filed by Trooper Michael Chavis.
Meneses, who was driving an estimated 90 mph in a 55-mph zone, steered the car back on the road, ran off the left side and struck a ditch, the report said.
The Lincoln rolled over multiple times before crashing into a utility pole, snapping it in half, the report said. The car continued to flip over several more times before coming to rest in a ditch on the south side of the highway.
Meneses, who was not wearing a seat belt, was thrown from the car, the report said.
Meneses was living in Robeson County, but had recently moved, a spokesman said. His address was given as that of his parents, who live in Gainesville, Fla.
Meneses held a Ph.D.
His specialties included criminology and deviance, race and ethnic relations, research/statistics and comparative law, according to the UNCP website.
"The university community is deeply saddened by the death of Rohald Meneses," said Kenneth Kitts, provost and vice president of academic affairs. "Dr. Meneses was an active scholar and well-liked instructor. His scholarly work often focused on issues regarding young people and social justice, and he involved his students in research projects. He was also active in departmental activities and university governance."

Smithsonian in the News: Diamonds at Natural History and Bubbles at the Hirshhorn
More than a Bauble…
The Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History announced yesterday that the Wittelsbach-Graff Diamond, a rare 31.06-carat blue diamond, will be joining the museum's 45.52-carat Hope Diamond come January 28. The last time the diamond, one of the grandest in the world, was on display was in 1958 at the Brussels World's Fair. But its owner Laurence Graff, of Graff Diamonds International, has loaned the diamond to the museum for a seven-month long exhibition, during which Smithsonian scientists will research its possible connection to the Hope Diamond. It's been speculated that they came from the same mines in India.
Like the Hope Diamond, the Wittelsbach-Graff gem has a rather storied history. Philip IV of Spain originally gifted it to his daughter, the Infanta Margarita Teresa, in 1664 when she was engaged to Emperor Leopold I of Austria. It switched hands to the Wittelsbachs, members of the ruling House of Bavaria, in 1722. In 1931, a glass knockoff thought to be the actual diamond was sold at a Christie's auction. The real one didn't turn up until 1951, in Belgium. Graff reportedly purchased it for $24.3 million a year ago at a London auction. To think, two of the largest, most flawless blue diamonds under the same roof!
And one big bubble…
The New York Times reported today that there may be an addition made to the Hirshhorn Museum—in the form of a 145-foot-tall inflatable, globular auditorium bubbling out of the museum's central courtyard. Richard Koshalek, the museum's new director, envisions the space, supposedly to be erected each year in May and October, as a venue for performing arts, film screenings and conferences. It could "transform one of the most somber buildings on the mall into a luminous pop landmark," writes Nicolai Ouroussoff of the New York Times.

Ok, so I'm trying to figure out what cell phone company to go with…Verizon or AT&T. Currently I'm using Verizon, and the service has been pretty good. I rarely ever get a dropped call. There are some gripes I have with Verizon though…
I'm not a huge fan of the crappy OS they put on their phones. I was "upgraded" to the Motorola RAZR on Verizon and it was one of the slowest phones I've ever used. I almost went back to my old phone because I hated how I had to wait for about 5 seconds after pushing a button for something to happen, and how I had to wait about 5 minutes to delete all my text messages whenever the phone got too full of msgs. This annoyed me because the phone I had before that was faster on all fronts…
Now I have a BlackBerry on Verizon, and its OK at best… I get my emails and all that like I should, however I don't like how Verizon does not let you connect via Bluetooth to anything but an earpiece. I would like to be able to transfer files/media/contacts via Bluetooth from my phone to my laptop, however Verizon does not allow this due to "Privacy" issues.
I also have been angry with Verizon for a long time over the lack of smartphones they offer. Verizon offers only 4 BlackBerrys while AT&T has many many more than that. I like having the freedom to choose, and when something limits that, it doesn't sit too well with me.
Next, the Verizon network: Their EVDO network is not really changing. While the rest of the world is on GSM which is able to handle 3G now or at some point soon, Verizon is not making any indication of changing their network.
I'm a big fan of how AT&T is upgrading their network, and 4G is in the works currently. I havent' had an AT&T phone so I don't know much about their service, but one of my best friends has been on AT&T for years and loves it still. He also has an iPhone 3G and has not had any of the problems some other fellow 3G iPhone users have been having with connectivity problems. I'm also leaning more towards AT&T becuause they are getting all the new smartphones it seems (BlackBerry Bold and iPhone)
I think in the end I will probably end up switching to AT&T and giving them a try, but I'm at a fork in the road between some of the new BlackBerry's and the new iPhone.

gift for my mom
By val
from atlanta ga
Comments about Wilsons Leather Pelle Studio Leather Jacket w/ Zip-off Hood:
Bought this as christmas gift for my mom. She loves it. The outer zippered pockets on both sides are great. It has magnetic closures and a inner zipper pocket. My mom carries a lot of stuff with her and it all fit. The leather is smooth and soft. I did think it would be a little bigger than it is. I also orded a double zip checkbook wallett to go with it. Was in stock but few days after order placed was cancelled "out of stock" The ptice was ok. Missed Cyber monday it was 30 doLlars less then. Overall I would recommend this purse.
High quality leather purse

from Effingham' Il
Best Uses
This is a purse to carry anywhere...casual or dressy. The quality construction will give Mom years of use. There are enough compartments to organize what she needs to carry. There is enough trim work to give it a designer look, but not so much that it appears cheap or gaudy. There is a quality lining that should also withstand years of wear. I looked all over to find a purse like this. Wilson's will be my first stop next time !

TALLAHASSEE -- Bill McBride, a gregarious Tampa lawyer with a common touch whose dream of becoming Floridas governor ended in a one-sided 2002 loss to Jeb Bush, died Saturday. He was 67.
McBride, the husband of Alex Sink, the 2010 Democratic candidate for governor, suffered a heart attack while on a holiday trip to North Carolina. Along with the couples son Bert, daughter Lexi and other family members, they had gathered for Christmas in Sinks hometown of Mount Airy, N.C.
Patrick Manteiga, publisher of La Gaceta newspaper in Tampa and a family friend, said McBride was found unconscious after he excused himself from a game of cards.
They had gone up to North Carolina to visit her side of the family. They had a perfectly great trip, ate at a restaurant that had great pork chops, and in the evening were playing gin rummy. Bill got up and left and didnt come back, Manteiga said.
Manteiga said details on services would be forthcoming.
Bills most outstanding quality is that he is the most fantastic father in the world, said Bob Bolt, McBrides law partner and a close friend since they were high school football rivals. . . . He always made sure he got home at night to see his kids.
Bolt said McBride played competitive handball as recently as last week. He played at the Harbour Island Athletic Club & Spa, where in 2003 he collapsed while working out on a treadmill.
McBride underwent an angioplasty, in which doctors inserted a stent into a closed coronary artery to reopen it.
A lover of baseball, football, fishing and anything involving his alma mater, the University of Florida, McBride was born on May 10, 1945.
He was an imposing figure, at six feet three and well over 200 pounds, but had a wide, easy grin and a folksy demeanor.
Despite his success and wealth in the corporate world, McBride enjoyed wearing an old gray sweatshirt, eating cheeseburgers and slaw dogs, and drinking a glass of bourbon. He remained steadfastly proud of his small-town roots in 1950s Leesburg, north of Orlando.
The son of a TV repairman, he played fullback and linebacker in high school. At UF,
a knee injury derailed his football career, but he followed a well-worn path to politics as a member of Blue Key and as president of a leading campus fraternity, Alpha Tau Omega.
After a year of law school at UF, McBride joined the Marines, rose to the rank of captain and received the Bronze Star with a Combat V for valor for service during the Vietnam War.
He became a leader in such organizations as United Way and the Florida Holocaust Museum, was a sought-after fund-raiser for Democratic candidates and was managing partner of Holland & Knight, which for many years was the states largest law firm, where his mentor was Chesterfield Smith, a former American Bar Association president.
After a decade in charge of Holland & Knights global operations, spanning six countries, he joined the Tampa law firm of Barnett, Bolt, Kirkwood, Long & McBride. He was a senior partner at the time of his death.
Political leaders throughout Florida paid tribute to McBride on Sunday.
Gov. Rick Scott, who defeated Alex Sink in 2010, said: Bill McBride was a great lawyer, a devoted public servant, a veteran and a talented leader .. . Florida is no doubt a better place because people like Bill McBride commit themselves to making a difference in the lives of others.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — A bye week couldn't come at a better time for No. 20 Louisville and its struggling defense. Louisville's chance for a perfect season evaporated with Saturday's 45-26 loss at Syracuse. It was the most points the Cardinals have surrendered all season but far from the first sign of concern. Forced to come from behind in its last six wins, Louisville couldn't outscore a Syracuse attack that gashed Cardinals for 278 yards on the ground and 524 total yards. Even when it wasn't allowing big plays Louisville's defense couldn't get off the field as the Orange converted 14 of their 19 attempts on third downs Louisville coach Charlie Strong said the problem lies with tackling fundamentals and players not controlling their gaps. The open week offers the defense a chance to re-examine its responsibilities and for the team to refocus on its preseason goal of a Big East title and a BCS bowl bid. The Cardinals can still reach both goals with wins in its final two games against Connecticut and at Rutgers. "The bigger goal is still to be met. The important thing is for us to not let one setback turn into frustration, excuse-making, lack of responsibility or poor individual habits," Strong said. The coach tried to deflect some of Saturday's blame from the defense toward himself, saying his buildup — calling it their "championship game" — may have been a mistake for his young team. "Maybe it's more my fault of setting the stage a little higher than what it should have been set," Strong said. "I just thought maybe that we were just a little further maturity-wise and we could have handled it a little better. Now, looking back (I) probably put too much on them in the beginning." The Cardinals have just ten seniors and Strong said his third-year program isn't at the level yet to handle the scrutiny that comes with a possible perfect season. "Everyone's (been) telling them how good they are. We have never been placed in that position. We've always done better coming from the underdog role instead of being favored." The team's mood is understandably down after Saturday's thrashing and Strong wants his team to remember that. "They need to hurt. They need to feel the pain of that loss," Strong said. "That's the only way the program will ever grow." This week's bye may provide enough time for the return of defensive end and sack leader Lorenzo Mauldin, who injured a knee Oct. 26 versus Cincinnati. The defensive line has also been without DeAngelo Brown (injury) and B.J. Dubose (suspension). One player the Cardinals won't have back is leading rusher Senorise Perry. The Big East leader with 11 touchdowns this season tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee Saturday and will miss the rest of the year. Junior running back Jeremy Wright has started every game but will shoulder more of the rushing load after previously splitting carries with Perry. Freshman Corvin Lamb, who caught a 53-yard touchdown pass against Syracuse but has just two rushing attempts for minus-1 yard this season, will back up Wright. Junior Dominique Brown, Louisville's leading returning rusher from last year, was injured earlier in the year and has yet to play while eligible to redshirt. Strong said he would consider using Brown in the Cardinals' final two games, especially if another back were injured. In addition to shoring up the defense, Louisville will use the open week to prepare for the short turnaround before its final game. Louisville travels to Rutgers on Nov. 29, just five days after hosting Connecticut on Nov.

Great Lakes Panel on Aquatic Nuisance Species The mission of the Great Lakes Panel is to coordinate the development of education, research and policy to prevent new aquatic invasive species from entering the Great Lakes basin and to control and mitigate those AIS populations already established.
Lakes Panel Background The Great Lakes Panel was officially convened in late 1991 in response to section 1203 of the Nonindigenous Aquatic Nuisance Prevention and Control Act of 1990 (P.L. 101-646) In establishing the Great Lakes Panel on Aquatic Nuisance Species, Congress recognized that providing sound advice to the Aquatic Nuisance Species Task Force from experts in a highly-impacted region could make a substantial contribution to the collective management effort at both a regional and national level. Effective prevention and control efforts in the Great Lakes continue to be the first line of defense in slowing or preventing the spread of ANS to other regions of the country. The Great Lakes Panel on Aquatic Nuisance Species is directed to perform the following tasks:

Westlake High's Glenn Castro walked into last year's Marmonte League Individual Tournament as the top-rated wrestler at 182 pounds but was still overwhelmed by the anxiety.
As a result of the pressure, Castro didn't accomplish his goal of winning a league title. He did advance to the CIF-Southern Divisional, where he wrestled well failed to advance to the Masters Meet.
Castro used missing his goals to fuel his fire over the offseason. It drove him to the gym every day and pushed him every time he found himself feeling too tired to keep going.
Castro has had a strong senior season, but believes none of it will matter until he redeems himself at Saturday's Marmonte League Individuals at Moorpark High.
"I know it won't happen again," Castro said. "Since last year I have worked to improve my strength, speed, focus and mental toughness. Last year I did not know what to expect, but this year I am ready to go."
During his first two seasons in wrestling, Castro said he wasn't that excited about the sport. But the summer between his sophomore and junior years, he started training with a few friends and competing at offseason tournaments. He had success and his passion for the sport grew.
"Since then I have just pushed myself to get better," Castro said. "Now, if I take a break from working out, it means I'm just doing some light drilling. I never totally stop working. You have to keep pushing both mentally and physically if you want to achieve your goals."
After two solid seasons Castro has drawn interest from colleges.
"I just want a chance to get an education and to keep doing a sport I love," Castro said.
After its win over defending Marmonte League champion Simi Valley on Wednesday night, the Royal again finds itself in the familiar position of league champion.
Prior to losing the title to the Pioneers a year ago, Royal had a stranglehold on the championship.
While winning a title is a challenge, maintaining a spot at or near the top of the standings is often tougher.
Royal head coach Richard Carrillo said the formula for his program's long period of accomplishments is nothing mysterious.
"There is no secret to our success — we work hard," Carrillo said. "We try to get the most out of our athletes on good days and bad days.
"We have a core group that knows what it takes to keep the momentum going. The program provides opportunities for them to do those things, and from that core we build."
With the title on the line as the Highlanders headed into last week's match with Thousand Oaks, Carrillo knew the challenge ahead.
"We knew it would be a very tight match because of the strength in their lineup," Carrillo said. "We were just trying to make sure we were able to keep it close against their good guys and win big where we could.
"Any number of changes in the outcomes of the individual matches could have led to a very different result. We are always tough at home and we try to use that to our advantage."
After the win, Carrillo reminded his team of the need to stay focused as it prepared for the final test against Simi Valley.
"We must continue to get better so we are ready for the postseason," Carrillo said. "You can never count out any team."
On Saturday, the Marmonte League Individuals will be held at Moorpark. The Channel League tournament will be hosted by Ventura High. The Pacific View League will be held at Pacifica High. All three tournaments start at 9 a.m.

NEW ORLEANS - College of Charleston 2012 graduate Emily Smith (Rock Hill, S.C.) was named to the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) All-Academic Track & Field team, announced by the USTFCCCA today.
Smith, who routinely earned placement on the Southern Conference All-Academic team during her four years at CofC surpassed the 3.25 grade point average to be placed on the USTFCCCA All-Academic Team.
"This is a tremendous honor to cap off a four-year career at the College of Charleston," CofC head coach Amy Seago said. "Emily is a great example of a student-athlete and has represented our program and this university with class and we are so proud of her."
On the track this year Smith won the Southern Conference Championship high jump event in both the indoor and outdoor seasons and advanced to the NCAA East Preliminary. She leaves as the school record holder in the event as well.
Smith earned a degree in Business Administration from CofC and plans to work forward a MBA in the future.

Latest trend for guys: Man tights
'Meggings' are 'taking the world by storm.'
Guard your leggings, ladies. Because men are hopping on board the trend of wearing tight, stretchy pants, too. So if they disappear from your closet this winter, you know where they might have gone.
According to an article written by the Business Insider, men's leggings are no longer just reserved for ballet dancers and male models —they are now common among all trendsetting gents.
More from Living: 7 things men will never get about beauty
"'Megging,' as the male legging is known, is now all the rage in sartorial circles," quotes the Insider. "Celebrities such as Justin Bieber, Russell Brand and Lenny Kravitz have all been spotted wearing leggings, while fashion stores Uniqlo, Barneys and Nordstrom are selling tights for men."
Apparently, the megging is creeping its way into fashionable men's closets everywhere, serving as a replacement for the popular skinny jean trend that has become more common among males in the past few years.
More from Living: The best mustaches of all time
"Male tights are so much more comfortable than skinny jeans," megging-wearer Mark Dorosz told the Insider. "I've always had good legs and it's nice to show them off all year round. There are so many people wearing exotic clothes in New York that nobody cares about a man wearing leggings if it works for him."
And so far, Dorosz says the feedback has been nothing but positive. "Perhaps people will be laughing around this in 12 months' time, but for now they come up to me and say, 'You look awesome.'"

Naniwa - Chosera 2000 and 3000 Grit Waterstones Pack
These stones are very popular with sharpening enthusiasts. ON BACK ORDER. EXPECT 2 WEEKS FOR DELIVERY.
The Chosera stones by Naniwa are the best, fastest cutting waterstones on the market. The action of the stone on the blade is smooth and consistent, giving you excellent feedback while you work. They are relatively expensive, due to the large amount of abrasive in the stones, the magnesia binder, and the post manufacturing conditioning for stability. The 2000 and 3000 grit combination picks up perfectly from the 1000 grit diamond stone, removing removing scratches and giving you a uniform, refined edge. The pack comes with 2 stones of each grit.
October 16, 2013 - Update
Due to extremely high demand these stones are currently on back order for 2-3 weeks.

The UCL Cancer Institute hosts external speakers, prominent in their fields of study, on Thursday evenings throughout the academic year.
The aims of these seminars are to discuss a range of topics relevant to cancer research, from fundamental research discoveries to translational applications, and we hope that these seminars will become a focus of social interaction between clinicians and scientists involved in cancer research across the UCL campus.
The general format is a 40-minute talk followed by a 10-minute discussion. A drinks reception will be held after each seminar.
Thursday 26th September at 4 pm in Courtyard Café, Paul O'Gorman Building
Host: Dr Tim Fenton (e-mail)
Professor Frank Furnari –
University of California, San Diego, Dept. of Pathology
"EGF Receptor in Glioma Biology: Therapeutic Target and a Multifaceted Driver of Pathogenicity "
The formation of human tumors is a complex process involving the accumulation of genetic lesions in genes that normally regulate cell proliferation, differentiation and cell death. For glioblastoma (GBM), the most frequent CNS tumor in adults, these genetic lesions occur in a relatively defined order and include loss of heterozygosity for chromosome 17p, mutation of the p53 gene, overexpression of the platelet derived growth factor receptor (PDGFA receptor), allelic losses of chromosome 22q, 13q (inclusive of the RB1 locus), and 19q, deletion of the interferon alpha and beta and INK4a and 4b loci on chromosome 9p, losses of heterozygosity for chromosome 10 for which the phosphatase and tensin (PTEN) homology gene, located at 10q23.3 is a frequent target, and gene amplification of EGFR.
Data from many studies, including the recent Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) initiative of the NCI, show that both PTEN mutation and EGFR amplification/mutation are the most frequent of the genetic lesions found in GBMs. The focus Professor Furnari's research group is to investigate the role of these two genetic lesions in the genesis of GBM and how they cooperate to promote therapeutic resistance commonly associated with this tumor type. Specifically, 1) how expression of a mutant form of EGFR (ΔEGFR) potentiates tumor heterogeneity and hence aggressiveness; 2) the role of this receptor in driving tumor maintenance; 3) how modulators of the PTEN/PI3K signaling axis influence the effectiveness of receptor-directed therapeutics; and, 4) deciphering parameters that regulate sensitivity to therapeutics directed at ΔEGFR, are projects actively pursued.

Is it a foregone conclusion Google wouldn't take a license if it were offered at a fair value relative to say, what GE, IBM, eBay, and others pay?
Of course they would pay. Whatever posturing you hear, that's all Oracle really wants and Google, for its part, is not going to blow up 300,000 applications, even if most of them are trivial moonlighter projects. Just too massively disruptive. Won't happen.
Moreover, there was testimony suggestive that this wasn't about the money on either side; it was about terms of the license. This didn't fall apart over money. At the time the license was being negotiated, Android wasn't what it is today and Oracle wasn't holding up any sort of "ransom" as far as I could tell.
What seems (as far as I can tell) to be the most important bit is Oracle getting even pissier about controlling Java than Sun was. Before, if you didn't call it Java, you didn't have to be compliant and didn't have to license the TCK to prove compatibility. And, there were a few precedents for that, I gather. It appears that the origin of a lot of this is that Oracle wants to have TCK compliant code of some kind no matter what you do with the core Java or how you subset or superset it.
Technically, I don't even know how you do a TCK for Dalvik/Android. It is both more and less than any specific Java version as far as I can make out. But, if we get there, it will figure in the settlement talks.

Senator Don Gaetz is currently sponsoring a bill in legislation that allows a tax break for online reservation companies that will affect the amount of taxes received by local Tourist Development Councils. The taxes make up the TDCs' budgets.
A bill analysis, available online through the Florida Senate website, said the bill requires that the "taxes are imposed on the amount received by the [property] owner…not the payments received by unrelated persons facilitating the booking reservations…."

Lifting the U.S. debt ceiling is necessary once more before the 2012 elections. When Congress struck a deal to raise it once in 2011, they empowered a super committee of members of the House and Senate to identify additional cuts of $1.2 trillion as a precondition for raising the debt ceiling again.
Without a deal in the super committee, Congress designed a process of "sequestration" that would produce automatic budget cuts, 50 per cent of which would come from non-defence spending and 50 per cent that would come from the defence side of the budget.
At the same time, the Congress redefined "defence" spending to include an array of national security line items, including the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of State, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Cuts could range from two to five per cent of spending across the board, and in particular cases may be even heavier.
If a deal is not reached, savings sequestered from these departments and agencies could have an impact on relations with Canada. For example:
What can Canada do about any of this? On first glance, not much: the decisions are up to Congress, and the U.S. is a sovereign power.
And yet Canadian officials, both federal and provincial, can and should begin preparing for the coming austerity. Now is the time to reach out to counterparts for reassurance that they will have the resources to sustain engagement and cooperative initiatives. As cuts begin to be identified, they can stress to senior Obama administration decision makers that the cuts would be damaging -- or in some cases, Canadians may wish to suggest cost-sharing measures to keep critical conversations and joint-efforts going.
Ultimately, it may not be possible to ring fence everything that matters in the U.S.-Canadian relationship from cuts. Surely it will be a long, strange journey from now until November 2012.

She would have been 32 today...

Rather than deal with the trials of life in 2012, Azaria never made it to her first birthday, she instead died a most horrid death somewhere at the base of Uluru.
As a person who has devoted my life to dogs, I know them well and the past year having interviewed Dingo experts in every part of Australia as well as studying them in their environment, I feel I know these also, and I have grown to love and respect these animals, just as I do our pet and working dogs under our care.
Despite this love and respect I have for dogs, I can not but feel intense sorrow that Azaria, never had the chance to work out which is the best dog food or get frustrated at the sheer lack of responsibility of some dog owners at the dog park.
Knowing dogs as I do, I can see over and over in my mind the events of that night in the heart of Australia in 1980. Death meets us all, that is a fact, but that way, the way death met baby Azaria just turns me inside out.
Many people would think that as a person with deep respect for Dingoes and Dogs that I would be of a different mindset, but how can you be when a defenseless little baby was lost in such a way.
The saga has been ongoing almost my entire life and as a kid I heard the most horrendous things said about the grieving mother, but all I can say on this is that we must learn from this terrible experience.
Dingoes and dogs have the ability to do immense harm, as Lindy found out that fateful night, but managed they can do incredible good.
It is essential that we manage dogs in our care, and it is even more important that we manage ourselves and those children in our care.
Lindy wants to close this chapter in her life and hopefully today that will happen, however her message that Dingoes are a wild animal and have the potential to be dangerous must be heeded. This is not about demonising our native dog, or any dog, it is about taking measures to protect them and ourselves from harm. It is about dog owners taking responsibility of their dogs actions and managers of dogs in the environment taking responsibility for the outcomes of the wild dogs in their care and the rest of us taking responsibility for our interactions with dogs, be they in the wild or the suburban street.
There is so much knowledge out there about the best management of domestic dogs, training through positive reinforcement, early socialisation and responsible management, just as there is so much warning about being safe around and not feeding wildlife which can encourage unwanted behaviour... but we as humans just seem to ignore it all.
My only hope is that when you are in a hurry you think that maybe that shopping cart you don't need to navigate around, that car spot that has not been taken or that dog poo not already stepped was because a woman by the name of Azaria Chamberlain never got to live.
