December 18, 2014
IRVING, Texas (AP) - Dallas Cowboys linebacker Sean Lee is set for surgery on his injured knee, but there's no timetable for his return.
Coach Jason Garrett said Lee is scheduled for surgery on the torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee Thursday. Garrett isn't saying whether Lee will try to play in 2014.
Lee was injured during 11-on-11 work on the first day of offseason practice last month. If the Cowboys think he can make it back, they could delay a decision on season-ending injured reserve until during the season.
The normal recovery time on ACL surgery is at least six months.
Lee has missed 15 games the past two seasons because of toe, hamstring and neck injuries.

Will Hulings rolls up Erin Garrigan and would go on to pick up a pin in 3:59. The match was a tight one until Hulings was able to make a series of moves and secure the win right before the buzzer to end the second period.
Kane's Josh Kibbie takes control of Port Allegany's Nick Budd in the final match of the evening. Kibbie would go on to defeat Budd 7-1 to secure the victory for the team.
Abe Gilmore and Ryan Thomas, both of Kane, trapped this 22-pound bobcat on opening day of the season.
Pictured above are the Kane Soccer Players with the trophies they received for being named to the Upper Allegheny Valley Soccer League All-Star team. Left to right, Jesse Ogorek, Pete Sirianni, Dawn Saquin, Corey McGuire and Taylor Bucheit.
Richard Duffy, 74, shot this bear with his bow on the last day of bear archery, Nov. 18. He has been hunting bears for 25 years and this is his first bear. In the photos are his hunting partners, Richard Duffy (hunter), Dan Jordan (stepson), Earl Duffy (son), Diane Gerg Imbrogno (taking photo). All were present when Rich got the bear. It weighed 220 pounds and was shot in McKean County with his bow.
Audrey Perry takes to the offense as she gets by the Otto-Eldred defender during second half action. The Lady Wolves would go on to defeat the Lady Terrors, 55-24. Perry had a solid game as she chipped in with six points as well as great defense and solid rebounds.
Tyler Ennis finds an opening and gets in for a layup during the first half against Elk County Catholic. Ennis had a nice game as he contributed with 11 points and had a good game on the boards.Â
Kaila Jamerson finds it tough to go to the basket as the Sheffield defenders guard the bucket. Jamerson would have a another solid game on both ends of the floor.
Pictured from left to right are Jeff Jennings and Walter Dixon. In the truck from left to right are Taylor Hoffman and Carl Hoffman. Jennings is the one who got the bear in McKean County and it is his first bear. The group are from Troy. When talking with John Dzemyan, Pennsylvania State Game Commission, he said "this is the best year we have had in over 10 years." Everyday was a record day. The first day their were 122 checked in, second day 16, third day 69, fourth day 21, and six bears on the final day. The grand total for the 5-day bear season that were checked into the Mt.

It is the end of the school year and things are in hurricane mode. Today is the last day for Seniors to present their culminating projects, graduation luncheon-rehearsal-ceremonies are Friday (which all happen after I teach from 7:45 until noon), and Prom is on Saturday night (which I am helping chaperone). Between meetings, problem-solving for individual students, and closing out IEP paperwork for the year on my students who are graduating, this chick is TOAST!
Through all this I have managed to keep my head about me because of all my wonderful friends on SparkPeople (my virtual "family") and my YMCA/Trainer family. You have buoyed me when I was down and feeling overwhelmed, encouraged me when I want to give up, and been the shoe in my rectum when no other method would suffice.
While my numbers haven't changed in about 6 months, my body has in more ways than I can address:
* Thanks for pointing out the NSVs and reminding me that they are (and I am) more important than a number on a scale!
* Thanks for pointing out that I am more fit than I have ever been in my life!
* Thanks for showing me the muscle definition in my back when I was in my baggy bathing suit and didn't know there was progress going on on my body where I couldn't see.
* Thanks for letting me cry on your shoulder when I didn't make it all the way through my AMRAP because I was too tired but still had a PR on my box jumps.
There are no words to express how much I value each and every one of you and the SP website for all you are in my life!
Yesterday, at my session with my personal trainer, I did something I haven't done since I was a child. I did box jumps! Granted, the box was only 6 inches tall, but , for a person who hasn't been able to jump on anything for 30+ years! a 6" box jump (repeated over 30 times) was a very big deal for me. To say I was excited when I finished the met com, which was 3 rounds of 10 box jumps, 10 barbell thrusters, 15 wall ball squats, and as many kettle bell swings I could do in a minute (29, 31, and 32 per minute), would be a huge understatement! It was AWESOME!
I find I reach points in my life where I catch myself being an observer rather and being a true participant. These times are usually infrequent and are generally characterized by a general level of subdued behavior, less inclination to laugh or make jokes, and a lack of clarity and sparkle in my eyes. I am not particularly fond of these periods of malaise, but I know that they do occur as part of life's cyclic nature.
I have found that, while these times are uncomfortable for me (and for those around me who care about my well-being), I DO benefit from the things I learn during these episodes. I do not begrudge them, but take the time to analyze them, picking them apart to see which morsel of discomfort has been planted for me to process so I may grow stronger.
This does not mean that I have to like what I learn. Nor does it mean that the lesson will never have to be repeated. It just means that it is a need in my life that I must meet and that, if I choose not to listen to its call to learn, I will get to repeat it sooner and with a touch more vehemence than the initial summons. Experience has taught me that it is far better for me to accept the initial call than to blow it off and await the next, more vociferous harangue.
Today I am relinquishing control so I can move forward and make myself a better human being.
For the last week I have had a flaming sinus infection. I finally caved and went to my doctor and got the antibiotics I need to kill this dizzying monster. I had forgotten how debilitating a sinus infection could be. Given the nature of the antibiotics I am on, I am presently cramming all the probiotics and yogurt I can into my system 4 hours after each dose in the hope of keeping up with the death rate of by beneficial flora in my system. Yuck!
Sometimes life sneaks up on you and snacks you very hard in the face. It takes you by surprise, it makes you reel, and it comes out of nowhere! Memories are like that sometimes. Especially flashbacks of a time in your life that maybe wasn't so positive and left a great effect on you. It can cause all kinds of reactions depending on who you are. When that happens to me, I need to get out of where I am and go somewhere that I can reconnect with my core. It doesn't happen to me very often, but when it does, it's pretty profound.
Learning to bounce right back up after being knocked down is definitely key to surviving these events.

Accepting A Drink From A Guy At The Bar
by Slacker And Steve
posted Mar 27 2012 4:12PM
There's a little bit of a debate going on in the studio and we need your help. Here's a scenario:
Say you're at a bar and you go up to the bar to get a drink. Well, while you are up there the guy next to you goes, "Hey can I buy you a drink?" And you say yes… Do you owe him any conversation as part of "the drink buying contract" as Slacker puts it or can you take the drink, say thank you and walk away?
Slacker feels like if you are going to say yes to someone buying you a drink, you have to give them a moment of your time to talk to them. It's a kind gesture. Steve thinks you can say thank you and walk away and if he's the guy that bought you the drink and you say that, then he will accept it because he took the risk. In a sense you are accepting the drink, not necessarily him. Steve says if you stay and talk and you're not even interested, then it's just leading him on and in that case, Slacker says you shouldn't even accept the offer.
What do you think?
Steve asked me this question last night and I told him if someone was to offer me a drink, of course I would take it, but I wouldn't be able to walk away. I would feel so guilty that of course I would give him a moment of my time and then throw out a code word to a friend so that I can get away if I'm not interested.
Peace. Love – Assistant Producer Stephanie

Apply # Rules # Wanted # Taken # Past
Who we are:
Sixth year, trio-era game with a plot scheduled six months in advance and room for subplot to fit in. Very active, no OC's, and lots of room for improvement, ideas and comments. We hold OOC chats every night to talk things in the game through, ask/answer questions and just generally have a laugh. We're a relatively new game but a lot has gone on. Any questions you would like answered before you apply or if you're thinking of applying, I'll gladly give you answers to. Ping us on AIM at Potter Avenged or Tonks the Avenger any time you see us on. We don't bite! Honest!
What we want:
Dedicated roleplayers who know their characters as well as their canon and use it in a good way. We like good spelling, good grammar and enjoy reading through longer applications. We are elite in the sense of not accepting players who cannot write but not in the sense of ultimate bitchery. We welcome anyone and everyone here, all we ask is that you understand your characterisation and play nicely once you're accepted. OOC drama is something that is not tolerated at all; our players have lives, they don't take gaming THAT seriously. Anyone who starts malicious messages or IM's to our players without good reason will be removed. All of us like writing logs and entries so you can poke us for storylines any time you like and talk us through any reasoning behind things you'd like to bring to the game. If you are worried about your character not having a place in the game then talk to us as we need characters for lots of different reasons and complicated plot in the near future.
And this is very important! If you join our game and something bad happens in real life but you want your character held - e-mail, comment or IM us with the word "Snitch". It saves you going through any horrid details. We will hold your character for as long as you need but you are agreeing to let us NPC them if we need them for plot and you are not back. If you don't return after 2 months, the place will be readvertised as we cannot hold onto characters forever. Similarly though, if a friend of yours joins us and has a problem but can't get online - you can even Snitch for them, just make sure you know who they play and we'll let them know their character is on hold via e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com.

text: Domenicali: No room for complacency as nothing is set in stone 21 March, 2013 Stefano Domenicali in Melbourne Although Ferrari endured a far better start to their season in Melbourne last week, than they did at the same time last year, team boss Stefano Domemicali is taking nothing for granted and declared that there is no room for complacency for the team and drivers Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa. Speaking ahead of the Malaysian Grand Prix weekend, "The first Grand Prix weekend of the season in Australia was a positive one for us as we had previously stated that our objective was to finish on the podium and that target was achieved. However, there is no room for complacency as nothing in terms of a pit lane hierarchy is set in stone. We have witnessed a weekend that was very unusual, with qualifying on Saturday and Sunday delivering a snapshot of the order that proved to be completely different come Sunday evening after the race." Pit stop for Fernando Alonso in Melbourne "It was important to see both our drivers deliver strong performances, as it provides a great basis on which we can build a competitive season and I'm pleased for both of them. Seeing Ferrari heading the Constructors' Championship is a great reward for the people who have been working so hard, both here at the track and back home in Maranello. But it's only the first step in a very long season and now is the time to analyse and evaluate all the data from Melbourne in order to be immediately ready for this coming weekend in Malaysia." Monsoon-like tropical storms are likely to play a role in proceedings at Sepang, but conditions will be unlike the cold and wet which characterised the Melbourne weekend. Although in Kuala Lumpur rain is a given just about every afternoon, it will be hot and humid at the same time which when coupled to the notoriously abrasive Sepang surface will impact tyres and their durability. Fernando Alonso in the rain during the 2012 Malaysian GP "Sepang is a very different track and our plan is to make the most of the package that we have," maintained the reds' team principal. "We need to wait and see how our car will behave in what is a totally different environment: the track will make different demands on the cars to the ones we experienced in Australia, with a change in track surface and the unique weather conditions, very hot and humid, will also impact on everyone's performance this weekend. We know what is required here and we will need the usual compromise in terms of downforce levels to deal with both the tighter section and the two long fast straights." Last year Alonso won the race starting eighth on the grid. Rain affected the entire race – including a 50 minutes stoppage after eight laps – and thereafter we witnessed an epic duel between Sergio Perez (in a Sauber at the time) and Alonso. In the end the Spaniard prevailed to score his thrid triumph at Sepang. He also won in 2005 as a Renault driver and 2007 with McLaren. The race on Sunday will be Alonso's 200th Grand Prix start. Tweet Related NewsDomenicali: I think the car has improved but not enoughFerrari: We cannot be happy with today's resultAlonso: It's probably the biggest smile for a fourth position in my careerFerrari: We can regard this as a positive resultRaikkonen happy as he gets the better of Alonso on day one at SepangFerrari: The actual pecking order will only be seen in QualifyingFerrari honour victims of flight MH370 with helmet stickersAlonso: Not a perfect start but I believe we can fight for the championshipRaikkonen: We have plenty of good people working flat out as a group to improve thingsVilleneuve: In the first three races Fernando is trying to destroy Kimi psychologically Roni Off course, Perez was forced to leave a victory to Alonso. Roni Massa will be forced to give all necesary help to Alonso because the championship will be very close. quattro "Off course, Perez was forced to leave a victory to Alonso." Yeah, in the same way as Hamilton has been forced by his team boss, to let ALO destroy him the last three season, even though Mclaren have had the stronger package. All drivers on the grid are so nice and helpfull to ALO, god bless them seeing scarlet Yak yak yak if the races don't go their way it's always the "other" guys fault.

Spain Shipwreck Treasure Shown For The First Time
The inventory counted 574,553 silver coins and 212 gold coins.
Odyssey had argued that the wreck was never positively identified as the Mercedes. And if it was that vessel, the company contended, then the ship was on a commercial trade trip â¿¿ not a sovereign mission â¿¿ at the time it sank, meaning Spain would have no firm claim to the cargo. International treaties generally hold that warships sunk in battle are protected from treasure seekers.
Odyssey lost every round in federal courts as the Spanish government painted the company as modern-day pirates. The company has said in earnings statements that it has spent $2.6 million salvaging, transporting, storing and conserving the treasure.
The metals were mined and the coins minted in the Andes, from places that are now in Bolivia, Chile and Peru.Spain overcame a last-minute effort by the Peruvian government to block the transfer of the treasure back to Spain. Peru did not gain its independence until 1824, but the country's lawyers argued it was more than a simple colony at the time because it was the local seat of the Spanish crown when the ship sank. Spain's Queen Sofia promised in a visit to Bolivia several months ago that some of the treasure would be loaned to the country for display in museums.

Virtual Vision FM presents author, Linda Deir
in Spirituality
Join us as we speak with Linda Deir, author of the powerful spiritual/paranormal book, Guided.
GUIDED is her true-life story - a memoir that reads like a suspense novel, a spiritual/paranormal connection book, and a template for connecting to the benevolent guidance that surrounds us all enabling us to remember who we really are, accomplish anything, and live a fear-free life.
I can't remember my mother ever holding me; only beating me for reasons my young mind was unable to comprehend. Vowing to "beat the spirit" out of me, I knew something was drastically wrong with her. So, I did the only thing I could think of…I shook the gate latch until it opened and ran away from home at the age of 20 months. I was going to find my daddy because I knew he would save me from her. I never made it. Two Sacramento police officers found me miles from home, in diapers and a baby snap-on shirt, my tiny bare feet bleeding, running down the median of a busy expressway. "Where are you going, little girl?" they asked. "I'm going to find my daddy…there's something wrong with mommy."
Find out what happened to baby Linda when the police officers took her home?

The vast majority of financial services organizations are only slowly adapting to the virtual world of the digital age, according to a study by the Economist Intelligence Unit in cooperation with Andersen Consulting.
The study found that financial services firms are increasingly vulnerable to more-nimble competitors.The study explores the effect of ''virtualization'' - defined as the migration of business from traditional ''bricks and mortar''-based delivery channels to electronic channels, such as the Internet, automated teller machines, and telephones - on financial services firms.
The study reveals a picture of a complacent industry. For instance, most financial services companies have not begun to realign internal processes across functions based on customer values, even though this is key to delivering services in a virtual world, it said.
''Responding in years to a world that now moves in nanoseconds is a dangerous strategy,'' said Robert Baldock, a partner in Andersen Consulting's global financial services practice.
''This lack of urgency increasingly exposes financial institutions to new entrants who act faster to capitalize on changing customer demands and the corresponding opportunities in electronic commerce,'' he said.
Based on surveys of 184 senior executives at financial service companies from around the world, the study found that just 10 percent of U.S. respondents currently provide their customers with access via the Internet.
However, this is still better than the mere 3 percent of European survey participants providing access via the Internet. None of the Asian respondents offers access via the Internet.
Most companies are just beginning to try to merge customer information from various product databases, the study found, although doing so is critical to understanding customer values.
The need for consolidated information is driving interest in data-warehousing and data-mining technologies, which enable organizations to combine and gain easier access to various types of information.
The study cited a few standouts that are moving quickly to embrace the digital age. Among these are Advance Bank Australia, which leads its home market in implementing new banking technologies, and the Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association - College Retirement Equities Fund.
Copies of the study, ''Financial services in the virtual world,'' are available for purchase from the Economist Intelligence Unit for $495. Contact Will Brown at (212) 554-0617, or fax (212) 586-1181.

Vertical specialization in international trade has contributed significantly to increased global flows of goods and services, according to an article in the Federal Reserve Bank of New York's Economic Policy Review.
In the United States, international trade accounted for 23.9 percent of gross domestic product in 1996, up from 9.2 percent in 1962.
The article by David Hummels, Dana Rapoport and Kei-Mu Yi concludes that vertical specialization has accounted for a large and increasing share of international trade in the last several decades. That share has been as high as 50 percent in some of the smaller countries.
Vertical specialization occurs when a country uses imported intermediate parts to produce goods it later exports.
Countries link sequentially to produce a final good, with each country specializing in a particular stage of the production process.
Although tariff and non-tariff barriers worldwide are quite low, vertical specialization can magnify the gains achieved by lowering these barriers even further, the authors said.
The trends that have led to increased vertical specialization - lower trade barriers and transportation and communications technology enhancements - are likely to continue, they said.
The text of the Economic Policy Review is available at http://www.ny.frb.org, which is the New York Fed's Internet site.
First American Trade Finance Inc., Dallas, is bringing its brand of transaction financing to the New England area.
Larry Renfro was named to represent First American in the New England states.
Mr. Renfro, who founded and heads LCR Financial Group, may be contacted at (978) 749-8891, or by e-mail at lrenfro(AT)ix.netcom.com.
Serving small and mid-sized companies, First American relies primarily on the performance capabilities of exporters and importers, whereas banks and other conventional lenders rely on hard asset collateral or the borrower's balance sheet ratios.
First American provides its own funds to carry out a client's transaction. Support can begin with pre-shipment financing to acquire or produce goods and can continue through collection of the sale proceeds.
The firm helps to properly structure letters of credit and supervise the documentation process to better assure collection for the sale.
International Finance Corp., a member of the World Bank Group, signed agreements to invest $10 million in Banc Post, a commercial bank that is slated to become Romania's first state-owned bank to be privatized.
Banc Post was created in 1991 to take over the Romanian Postal System's banking and payment transactions.
IFC agreed to make a subordinated convertible loan of $10 million to finance the expansion of the bank's network of branches and automatic teller machines and to modernize its information technology systems.
IFC said its investment will help prepare Banc Post for privatization and strengthen its operating capacity. The loan will be convertible into equity in the bank when it is privatized.

Today was field trip day at the Y.
My Husband, Pastor Coleman drove us.
This where I'm trying to get to. Quiet time.
This is the end of the school year for us. Slowly winding down.
I thank the Lord it's been a good year.
I hope you don't mind me haring part of my days at work.
Have a great day everyone.
This is the 4/23/09/ When I changed the batteries yesterday the time and date got off.(LOL)
Have a great day, running late today. Be blessed in the Lord my friends and as Paul says, "Rejoice!." Why, because we still have a chance to get it right.
"I, yes I, am the one who comforts you. So why are you afraid of mere humans?" Isaiah 51:12 (NLT)
What is the opposite of "love"? Our first answer would no doubt be "hate." I use to think so. However, the longer I live, the more I believe "fear" is the opposite of love. True, if I am going to act the opposite of love, it would be to hate. But if I am going to live in the opposite of love, it is fear! Fear keeps us from love's reality. Fear tells us that the promises of love are nothing but lies. Fear chooses to doubt love's sincerity. Worse, it doubts the lover. When we choose to believe fear, it means we have chosen not to believe God. He says, "I will never leave you nor forsake you." And yet we act as if we are abandoned, all alone with God no where is sight. We need to start seeing God as God. We need to give up our fear beliefs and start to bond with God. We need to meditate on His love for us and then appropriate that love to every moment in our life. He is the one who comforts us. He is the one who will never leave us. He is the one who will never stop loving us. Today, believe it, rejoice in it, live as if it is true. It is.
"Even when there was no reason for hope, Abraham kept hoping - Abraham never wavered in believing God's promise. In fact, his faith grew stronger, and in this he brought glory to God. He was fully convinced that God is able to do whatever he promises." Romans 4:10, 20-21(NLT)
TODAY'S THOUGHT If there was ever a model for living the Christian life it is Abraham Look again at today's verses. There is no better way to exemplify how we are to live. Abraham lived in an incredible relationship with God. He was totally immersed in faith. He did everything with God in mind. Look at what Paul writes, "Even when there was no reason for hope, Abraham kept hoping - Abraham never wavered in believing God's promise." More than that Paul writes that Abraham was "fully convinced that God is able to do whatever he promises." Just like you and I, Abraham had choices to make every day. He chose to trust God. He decided that he would put his faith and hope in Jehovah. What about you? Who are you going to trust? Who will you hope in? Who will you be counting on to do what He has promised? Today, choose to live by faith in our living God. Put your full hope and trust in Him.
Hi friends and teammates. Sorry I'm running behind today. When you get behind at SP, it's hard to catch up but I'm on my way. I do hope you all had a great day.
"For I am the least of the apostles, unworthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. But by the grace of God I am what I am." I Corinthians 15:9-10 (NIV)
Thanks for reading my blogs.
Paul was called to be an Apostle, but he knew that it was by the grace of God. He knew that he was unworthy to serve Christ, but God's love overcame any past that Paul had. We need to come to the same realization of what God's grace has done for us. By God's grace we are His child. By God's grace we are born again and forgiven of all our wrong doing. By God's grace we are alive and living with a purpose. By God's grace we have hope. By God's grace we have a personal relationship with God. By His grace we have eternal life. All of us have a story. All of us, in one way or another is totally unworthy of grace, but then it is God's grace. Today, thank God for His marvelous grace that He has so freely given us.
Accepting The Gift Of The Cross
In our stages of growth we should become more conscious of our righteousness as opposed to our sin. Practicing a consciousness of our state of righteousness is a journey in maturity. This growth process of humanity does not have to be painful. Under the law, man was conscious of his sin continually; but under the New Covenant God desires for us to focus more on who we are and what we have in Christ Jesus.
Our own righteousness is filthy in His sight; however, the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus is our new identity. As we honestly grow in Christ our desire increases to please Him. As we grow to please Him, we become more aware of our new creation realities. These realities and more powerful than the bonds of sin because sin is no longer our master. We are not under the law but under grace according to Romans 6:14, which says, "For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law for under grace."
Does this mean that we will not miss the mark because we are under grace? By no means! It simply means that we must practice a lifestyle of walking in our redemptive rights. To refuse to grow up and walk in God's truth is to refuse to accept what Christ has made available to us. It cost the Father the blood of Jesus for us to live this life in its totality. We appropriate this life by grace. For if this growth and acceptance of righteousness came by our own works or by the law, then Christ died in vain according to Galatians 2:20-21.
His death is not in vain in our life when we recognize that we are in Christ Jesus. Maturity sets in when we meditate on the fact that Christ lives in us and we become God-inside minded. This is by no means a formula that makes us flawless, but rather creates an awareness of our purchased possession. In order words, we have more working in us internally than we have working against us externally.
As the maturity level develops in our life, it doesn't mean that we are free from the ability to sin or free the enemy tempting us with sin. We must always remember that we have an advocate with the Father, our high priest Christ Jesus, and it is through Him only that we are more than conquerors and triumphant in living this Christian life. We are assured of this because Christ Jesus is the propitiation for our sins and He is our righteousness. This righteousness is our purchased possession.
Jesus died to provide this for us and now we must possess the provision and walk in it.

Apple tried to hire Swiss watch-making experts to work on the iWatch
According to a Financial Times report, Apple tried to bring Swiss watch-making expertise to its fabled iWatch project. In its perfectionist pursuits, the company reached out to talent from esteemed brands to work on what could be a smart-watch with a traditional mechanism. But, so far, Apple's efforts have failed. Apparently, the company tried to hire watch-making experts from LVMH Hublot, Swatch, and "several Swiss parts manufacturers", but none of Hublot's workers accepted, and, most likely, neither did others from the industry.
As a whole, Switzerland's watch-making elite remains skeptical of wearable technology. It has proudly ruled the watch industry for decades, while selling watches that are sometimes worth hundreds of thousands dollars. It's not unrealistic to assume that it views current smart-watches as a fad of poorly designed, cheaply made accessories which rely on the popularity of smartphones to steal customer attention from their finely crafted products.
Vendors like Apple and Motorola looking after fusing the exquisiteness of traditional watches with the exciting possibilities of today's technology, but it would take more than impressive concepts, it seems, to convince Switzerland's old-timers to get with the times. "We have been in discussions - not ever initiated by us - with practically all players in smart wearables up until today," said Swatch CEO Nick Hayek, adding that "we see no reason why we should enter into any partnership agreement."
It would take more than impressive concepts to convince Switzerland's old-timers to get with the times
The Moto 360, a great surprise introduced alongside Android Wear, impressed technology fans from the get-go. Meanwhile, Apple analysts are becoming impatient, even disillusioned with the iWatch. The device is expected to appear later this year, but most reports and rumors suggest that it's still in a prototype stage and being experimented upon. Extreme ambition and taking time has been Apple's way of doing business since its inception, but in this day and age, the market's moving very fast, while customers, analysts, and investors foster unrealistically high expectations from leaked information.
If Apple postpones the iWatch for too long, it risks the product turning into a letdown on release. Then again, the majority of Cupertino's clientèle is perfectly happy with whatever the company throws at them, so maybe the biggest pressure is stemming from its own high standards.

It'll be hard for other OEMs to match the elegance of the Moto 360

If it's true, it will become significantly more expensive than the other smartwatches.

Steven Job can come out with product with a lot less fuss and quicker too!
I still remember that the iPhone 1 has no Bluetooth support, no mms so what!!!
Steven Job marketing fitness get the product so hype that no one would even notice that they are missing... and the battery life stay 100% thru out his 2 hours presentation.
Hats off!!

The iphone always had bt support. But at first all it could do was bt headsets, no audio.

I'd never trade in any of my watches for some sort of smartdevice. A good watch completes a man. From a cheap Soviet era Sturmanskie to a Maurice Lacroix, a watch can never be replaced by a silly gadget. Its not like your phone is more than 2 feet away anyway..
6. lyndon420 (Posts: 1785; Member since: 11 Jul 2012)
You should be complete all on your own. You shouldn't need anyone or anything to 'complete' you (just saying).
8. KillgoreTroutTime (Posts: 398; Member since: 06 Jan 2014)
The targeted consumer of "smart watches" aren't watch enthusiasts such as yourself. This should be obvious to you. "Smart watch" is a misnomer and should be changed for another name. They really have nothing in common with actual watches except the fact they are(for now) placed on your wrist. Enjoy your hobby and let others enjoy advances in digital technology aka "silly gadgets."
7. KillgoreTroutTime (Posts: 398; Member since: 06 Jan 2014)
What would a smart watch with a traditional complication(regular watch insides) even do? It seems like you would really be restricting the "smartness" of the watch. It may look pretty, but it wouldn't be very groundbreaking.

I thought Apple hates moving parts?

"As a whole, Switzerland's watch-making elite remains skeptical of wearable technology."
Just like how Kodak was sceptical about DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY I'm sure - idiots!

Diagnosis of Endometriosis
A Clinical history of pain as described before should make one suspect the condition.
On vaginal examination there maybe uterus, tubes and ovaries being felt as one fixed mass that is tender.
A rectovaginal exam (one finger in the vagina and one finger in the rectum) is indicated to rule out tenderness and deeply infiltrating nodules that maybe present in the ligaments of the uterus (utero-sacral) or behind the uterus (pouch of Douglas) and/or maybe visible in the vagina or on the cervix.
As the clinical presentation and physical findings can be variable; a review of history and physical exam is not sufficient for a confirmative diagnosis of endometriosis. A definitive diagnosis is often based on direct visualisation.
Laparoscopy is the gold standard for diagnosing endometriosis.
1. Ultrasonography - Is a non-invasive imaging technique which may provide supporting evidence by demonstrating the presence of ovarian endometriotic cysts and adenomyosis. 2. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) - This non-invasive technique is used to diagnose endometriosis and to monitor treatment response, once a diagnosis is firmly established.
3. Laparoscopy - This procedure helps in direct visualisation of the endometrial lesions and also is helpful in treating endometriosis surgically. Biopsies of the endometrial implants can be taken and sent for histo pathological examination.

'Jingle All the Way 2' is expectedly flawed
Was anyone asking for an extra-large helping of Larry the Cable Guy this Christmas? If so, you can thank Santa Claus for Jingle All the Way 2.
If not, you can be like the rest of us and curse Santa for his folly in creating such a film. Santa, we neither wanted nor needed this.
A follow-up to the much-derided 1996 Christmas film Jingle All the Way, Jingle All the Way 2 isn't so much a sequel as it is an odd kind of remake, offering a few original twists on the original's dad-vs-dad holiday showdown, but also copying large chunks of the original without alteration. > Read more.

The Northwestern Indiana Regional Planning Commission announced Friday that paratransit services in Hammond would continue through July.
The service was at risk to end with the end of Regional Bus Authority service on Saturday.
Riders who qualify for paratransit through RBA will be able to continue using Triple A express service as permanent funding is pursued.
Anyone with questions can contact Triple A and, starting Monday, questions can be directed to John Swanson at NIRPC, 763-6060.
Still, not everyone is delighted by the move.
Teresa Torres, a spokeswoman for Everybody Counts Inc., said the RBA had problems complying with a lawsuit from the American Disability Association and part of that problem was failure to provide adequate oversight of Triple A operations.
"It will be unfortunate for anyone to assume that people desperate for something should settle for anything less than the level of quality services to which they are entitled under federal law," Torres said.

To shaqfu: Ya the Giants are so good considering that they did so much to lose against the eagles in the FIRST ROUND! So much for reigning superbowl champs! You guys lucked into the superbowl and were lucky that the patriots played so crappy that they'd let a sorry ass team like the giants beat them. Go cards.

Cast as the band providing entertainment for the common-class passengers in the film Titanic, Gaelic Storm made its public bow well before a formal recording. The exposure served the band well and established its credentials — a good thing, since Gaelic Storm hails from Santa Monica and not the old country as claimed. Still, this act's Celtic know-how and knack for meshing fiddles, bohran, mandolin, and accordion provides a spirited sound and a rousing take on a traditional Irish motif. Like other expatriates — Black 47, Flogging Molly, and the Dropkick Murphys immediately come to mind — the band allows a certain amount of insurgence to punctuate the proceedings.

It's especially gratifying, then, that Gaelic Storm hasn't capsized commercial prospects by tapping into that old-school sound. Both 2008's What's the Rumpus? and the group's latest collection, Cabbage, debuted at number one on Billboard's World Music charts. All of which goes to prove that, if you're looking for a spirited soiree, Gaelic Storm's the band that can float your boat.

George H.W. Bush Is Witness At Same-Sex Wedding Of Friends
Originally published on Thu September 26, 2013 8:34 am
Former President George H.W. Bush's presence as a witness and guest at the marriage of two women in Maine last weekend is being treated by some as his quiet endorsement of same-sex marriage.
For the record, The Associated Press writes, Bush spokesman Jim McGrath says only that the former president and his wife, Barbara Bush, attended the marriage of friends Bonnie Clement and Helen Thorgalsen as private citizens.
On her Facebook page, Thorgalsen posted a photo of the 89-year-old Bush signing the marriage license. "Getting our marriage license witnessed!" she wrote.
In an email to The Washington Post, Clement says the couple has known the Bushes for many years. The Post writes that:
" 'This is such a wonderful time for change in our legal system,' she added. 'Who would be best to help us acknowledge the importance of our wedding as our friends and as the former leader of the free world. When they agreed to do so we just felt that it was the next acknowledgment of being real and normal.' Clement, 60, said she and Thorgalsen, 55, have been together for 12 years, during which she helped raise her new wife's now-adult daughters."
The AP reminds us that:
"Bush was in the White House when gay marriage wasn't as big a political issue as it is today. One of his sons, former President George W. Bush, opposed same-sex marriage and in 2004 announced his support for a proposed constitutional amendment to outlaw it. But [George W. Bush's] wife, Laura Bush, and their daughter Barbara Bush support gay marriage, as does [George W.Bush's] former vice president, Dick Cheney, whose daughter Mary Cheney is openly gay.
"A spokesman for George W. Bush on Wednesday declined to comment on his current feelings about same-sex marriage or his thoughts about his father's role in a same-sex wedding."
Same-sex marriages became legal in Maine, where the Bushes have a summer home, last December.

Re-Imagining Shakespeare: Twelfth Night
Concept NarrativeAfter reading through our group's response to the play, we tried to pull apart the pieces that we felt would be most important to convey on a poster. A main theme we found to be predominant throughout Twelfth Nightwas gender roles in society. There were also multiple love interests and one character choosing to take on the identity of her twin brother. In order to collaborate with our group's interpretation of Shakespeare's play, we decided to focus on the this identity and gender switch.
After looking at multiple Twelfth Night and non Twelfth Night poster designs, we decided to focus on silhouette figures and bright colors. With the idea that the main character dresses as her twin, we aimed to keep the silhouettes looking similar, except for hair. We strived to portray the female-looking figure in both images. It was difficult to convey this message without giving the impression of a love scene – man and woman staring into one another's eyes, for instance. The image left a confusing middle focal point that we have filled with a futuristic cruise ship or space ship to incorporate the setting of our group's revised play – 2428 to be exact. The ship played an important role in the play itself. A storm and a sinking ship were major turning points in the play that led to the mayhem which occurs in Shakespeare's story.
Our original intent was to have the focal color yellow in order to emphasize the yellow stockings that were a symbol in the play. The final colors we found most appealing and eye catching help create a foreground and really play up the silhouette figures. The black background and contrasting yellow figures plays on both the stocking symbol and a night landscape. It was very important to have images and colors that would stand out from a far distance. We believe that the main aspects of our poster can be read from a distance and maintain their meaning and symbolism.

Mass-transit subsidy, once again, set to decline
If Congress fails to act by the end of the year, a tax subsidy for commuters who use mass transit is set to drop from a maximum of $245 a month to $130. At the same time, fringe benefits for parking are set to rise to $250 a month starting in January. Two stand-alone measures in the House and Senate would restore parity between the parking and mass-transit subsidies

Potlatch Reports First Quarter 2011 Results
Potlatch Corporation (NASDAQ:PCH) today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2011.
"The year is off to a good start in each of our business segments," said Michael Covey, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Potlatch Corporation. "Favorable logging conditions in Idaho allowed our Resource segment to roll forward some of our planned harvest for the year, in order to capture better than anticipated pricing. Our Wood Products segment benefitted from relatively strong lumber prices in January and February, though prices have recently softened. Our Real Estate segment had another solid quarter, completing the first of three phases of a non-strategic and rural real estate land sales transaction in Idaho along with a continued steady flow of other HBU and rural recreational land sales," concluded Mr. Covey.
- Total consolidated revenues increased 16 percent from $105.4 million in Q1 2010 to $122.2 million in Q1 2011.
- Net earnings for the quarter were $7.7 million, or $0.19 per diluted common share, compared to $1.2 million, or $0.03 per diluted common share for Q1 2010.
- Q1 2010 earnings included a $3.0 million after-tax charge, or $0.07 per share, related to health care reform legislation passed in Q1 2010.
- Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations was $20.2 million for Q1 2011 compared to $11.9 million for Q1 2010.
Q1 2011 BUSINESS PERFORMANCEResource Resource segment revenues increased 15 percent from $44.8 million in Q1 2010 to $51.6 million in Q1 2011. Operating income for the segment was $14.1 million, compared to $12.8 million in Q4 2010 and $9.9 million in Q1 2010. Q1 2010 results include Wisconsin operations which were sold in the second half of 2010.
