Detained: Five boys were taken into custody on March 24 for their alleged involvement in burglaries of approximately 15 classrooms at Wettengel Elementary School in Dededo over a week. Police said three separate burglaries occurred sometime between March 13 and 19. Pacific Daily News file photo
Graffiti on walls and chalkboards and snack wrappers left behind in classrooms led to the apprehension of five young boys allegedly involved in recent burglaries at Wettengel Elementary School in Dededo.
The youngest boy was 11 years old. Two were age 12, and two were age 14.
The boys were taken into custody late Tuesday afternoon in connection with their alleged involvement in burglaries of approximately 15 classrooms at the elementary school over a week. Police said three separate burglaries occurred sometime between March 13 and 19.
The boys weren't students at the school, but rather "neighborhood kids," said Special Agent CJ Cruz of Guam Police Department's Juvenile Investigations Section.
"We're dealing with 11- to 14-year-olds so their mentality was they were bored; (they) broke in, stole snacks, trashed the room and left," said Sgt. John Bagaforo, also with juvenile investigations.
All of the minors are being confined at the Department of Youth Affairs, according to police.
Cruz said the minors were apprehended after the schools' Parent Teacher Organization disseminated information to parents asking them to assist in the search for the intruders.
"The PTO and the school did a really big part and what we did was pick up the pieces," Bagaforo said. "We want to acknowledge the PTO and let (parents) know that if Wettengel can do this, let's get (other PTOs) active to represent their school."
Graffiti left on classroom walls and chalkboards that read "blak flag" and trash left behind in classrooms led to the apprehension of the boys, Bagaforo said.
He said one of the boys' moms remembered a kid visiting her son with the words "blak flag" written on his arm with permanent marker.
She also noticed her son's friends coming around with snacks that cost more than $5 to $6.
"She put two and two together," Bagaforo said.
Bagaforo said the woman asked her son and he admitted to being part of the burglaries. She then brought her son to the Dededo precinct, he said.
A boy who was brought to the Dededo Precinct Command by his parent implicated three other boys who were brothers, according to GPD spokesman A.J. Balajadia. A second boy also came to the Dededo Precinct with his parent regarding the investigation.
All five boys were interviewed, according to Balajadia.
The boys were taken into custody on suspicion of burglary, criminal mischief, theft of property, graffiti, crimes against the community, conspiracy to commit burglary, guilt established by complicity, criminal trespass, beyond control and curfew violation.
The investigation is ongoing, Bagaforo said.
Cruz said after the Juvenile Investigations Section's investigation is completed, the case will be forwarded to the Attorney General's Office.
The burglaries were executed in a similar manner, police said.
In addition to graffiti and snack wrappers left behind, the intruders also set off a fire extinguisher, said Robb Malay, deputy superintendent with the Guam Department of Education.
He said the graffiti was done with chalk, and dry erase markers might also have been used.
Bagaforo said aluminum shutters and cracked plexiglass on windows where the burglars entered a classroom need to be replaced.
Malay said the damage was not extensive. Cruz said the damage cost was still being assessed.
Malay said school operations continued and no class time was lost following the burglaries.

CommVault announced that St. Francis Xavier (SFX) Sixth Form College has deployed CommVault's Simpana® software for VM Backup, Recovery and Cloud Management Solution Set, enabling the organization to make efficient use of disk & tape storage whilst protecting and optimizing its virtualized and cloud infrastructures. Faced with managing growing amounts of data at a time when education budgets are being stretched to the limits, St. Francis Xavier College, a top of the league college for Inner and South London (DFE January 2014) that offers 50 courses to its 1500 students, benefited from CommVault's simplified pricing and packaging options. With constant pressure on the IT infrastructure, the college required a solution that was cost-effective and reliable. CommVault's Simpana Solution Sets provide enterprise backup functionality for SFX at a lower price than renewing its previous solution. Even with its wide variety of features, CommVault's Simpana Solution Set costs less than the renewal of Backup Exec. The VM Backup, Recovery and Cloud Management solution protects the college's 45 virtual machines (VMs) and is much easier to use than the previous system. Offering compression and a de-duplication ratio of 1:5 at SFX, the college has found that it can store six weeks of data on its local storage compared to the two weeks it was previously limited to, saving local disk storage space and providing a reliable and inexpensive solution for the IT team to work with. CommVault's Solution Sets can be individually deployed or combined as part of a comprehensive data protection and information management solution. Simpana for VM Backup, Recovery and Cloud Management enables VM administrators and end users to build, protect and optimize virtualized and cloud infrastructures.
CommVault announced the University of Tasmania has chosen the Simpana 10 platform as part of its strategic IT roadmap, which gives students, academic staff and researchers a self-service and mobile platform for current and future data management needs. As part of a continuing strategic partnership via an extended agreement signed with the company, the University of Tasmania will roll out a Simpana software powered central data management platform supporting information needs for around 19,000 students as well as research and academic staff. This will, for the first time, provide automated access to large amounts of data and research information on any device, at any time, via highly secure self-service portals on and off the network.

When Getting Angry is Good
Bus drivers and bouncers face it with some frequency; so do counselors and psychologists; but call center employees are on the frontline. Do you ever get angry at them?
Anger has been viewed as a negative emotion, unproductive and destructive – but what if this emotion is actually really good for you?
This program will get honest about anger – its limitations and its potential.
Join guest host Anton Enus as we look at how anger works in the brain and in society. Insight asks: can we use it for positive gain?
Fun Facts About Smiles
Did you know?
1) Research has shown that of all the seven basic emotions, happiness is the easiest expression to recognize, even across cultures.
2) There are many different types of happiness including elation, euphoria, excitement, and amusement. However, research has shown that these enjoyable emotions are all expressed on the face the same way: by the Duchenne Smile. A Duchenne Smile occurs when the lip corners move up and the muscle around the eyes moves as well. Oftentimes you see wrinkles around a person's eyes. This is often described as a "twinkling" or "sparkling" in the eyes.
3) Research has also shown that forcing yourself to smile can improve your mood.
4) Not only that, your smile may be a predictor of how long you'll live and a simple smile has a measurable effect on your overall well being!
5) There are other positive effects of smiling. Some research has suggested that smiling makes you more attractive. In other research, smiling has been proven to help build rapport and create positive relationships with others.
Think you can tell the difference between an enjoyment smile and a social smile? Put yourself to the test with Humintell's Smile Game!

Cerebellum's Role In Thought And Emotion
NPR recently featured an amazing and fascinating story about Jonathan Keleher, a 33 year old man who was born with part of his brain missing. Keleher is one of a handful of people known to have lived their entire lives without a cerebellum, a structure that usually contains about half the brain's neurons.
As a result of his exceedingly rare condition, Jonathan has a distinctive way of speaking and a walk that is slightly awkward. He also lacks the balance to ride a bicycle. However, this hasn't kept him from living on his own, holding down an office job at a non-profit, an making a important contribution to neuroscience.
"What we now understand is what that cerebellum is doing to movement, it's also doing to intellect and personality and emotional processing," says Dr. Jeremy Schmahmann, a professor of neurology at Harvard and Massachusetts General Hospital
Without a cerebellum, Schmahmann says, a person's thinking and emotions can become as clumsy as their movements.
Listen to the complete story below.
Kids Know It's Sometimes Nicer to Lie
Children can be brutally honest, but at what age do they start to realize what they say can hurt other people's feelings?
Felix Warneken and Emily Orlins, two researchers at Harvard, recently set out to investigate that question, and they published their results in the British Journal of Developmental Psychology.
In their experiment they gathered 80 kids from 5-10 years old. They presented the kids with four simple drawings of things like houses or cars, two of which were good and two of which were obviously bad, and asked the kids to sort the drawings into "good" and "bad" piles.
Melissa Dahl from the Science of Us writes, "In one condition, one of the experimenters lamented to the other one how sad she was because she was so bad at drawing. In the other, the experimenter said aloud that she knew she wasn't very good at drawing, but she was fine with that. Then, in both conditions, the artist-experimenter showed the child her messy picture and asked the kid directly which pile it belonged in."
The results? At all ages, when the kids heard the experimenter say she was sad, they were more likely to lie to her and say they'd put her drawing in the "good" pile, as compared to the condition in which they heard the experimenter say she knew she wasn't a great artist and was okay with that. But the older kids were more likely to lie to protect the researcher's feelings than the younger kids.
Take a look at this past blog we wrote about children lying.

- Greetings Art Educators,
Here are two sites from Scout Report that I will be
8. Cities and Buildings Database
The University of Washington Libraries Digital
Collection online projects and archives are
well-regarded, and this database proves to be no
to that highly positive trend. Started in 1995, the
Cities and Buildings Database contains over 10,000
digitized images of buildings and cities
culled from all historical periods and from all over
the world. Visitors may wish to start with a simple
keyword search or if they are interested in
merely browsing by country, they may do so as well
from the homepage. Of course, one should not be
surprised to also learn that visitors may also
perform detailed searches for buildings by city,
style, title, architect, and date of construction.
Just to give prospective visitors some sense of
the depth and breadth of the collection, the database
contains everything from conceptual sketches of Frank
Gehry's Experience Music Project to
photographs of the monastery of St. Keghard in
Armenia. [KMG] Copyright Scout Report 2005
Teachers do have permission to show images in
PowerPoint (as long as you credit source). I will add
a link to my Architecture page.
9. Vanderbilt University: Bioimages
This extensive website of southeastern U.S. plant
images was developed by Dr. Steve Baskauf of the
Department of Biological Sciences at Vanderbilt
University. The site is part of a larger Bioimages
website designed to "provide educational information
to the public on biologically related topics, as well
as a source of biological images for personal and
non-commercial use." Site visitors can browse for
excellent images of many trees and woody plants by
common name, scientific name, or family. Notably,
these species pages include close-ups of different
tree and plant parts (e.g. flower, bark, leaf, fruit).
The site also offers helpful comparison sections for
oaks, hickories, maples, and hickory nuts. Other site
offerings include a list of Common and Endemic
Herbaceous Plants of Cedar Glades by Family, a list of
non-seed plants (hyperlinked to images), and a section
on Identifying Invasive Plants. This site is also
reviewed in the April 1, 2005_NSDL Life Sciences
Report_. [NL] Copyright Scout Report 2005
This site has some good close-up images of plants and
trees. I will add a link oon my Art-Math-Science page.
You have permission to use images from this site, too.

Thanks Lori and Gil. Gil we don't usually have trouble with snow buildup, we really don't get a lot of snow like they do in the southern part of the state. Sometimes the wires get stretched too tight from cold though... but haven't for a bunch of years. Mostly that was telephone lines. |

The NSA has nearly complete backdoor access to Apple's iPhone

There is a huge history of data being gathered and then abused. Do you really want everything you ever say or do, every place you go recorded and available to have someone look up some time? If you have read the book "Three Felonies A Day" it shows that on average an American commits three felonies PER DAY! How about selective enforcement if you become a problem? It is straight out of 1984! Anyone who cares about freedom and the Constitution should care. |

The NSA has nearly complete backdoor access to the iPhone
Specifically regarding iPhone: http://www.cultofmac.com/260213/nsa-...ccess-iphones/ As if this comes as a surprise. Wonder if Apple is pearly white here? Would be nice to get an explanation from Cook. Is this version dependant? iOS6 or 5 safer? Will they patch this as fast as they patch the jailbreaks? It's basically another jailbreak to gain root access; unless Apple are providing the artifices for a door. Discuss.. |

None of this matters. This whole NSA thing gave some people the impression that all of a sudden they became a target on some government list. A supreme court judge ruled last week that there is no evidence that NSA is abusing this power.
Would I want a potential backdoor in my phone? Probably not. Could the enemies of the United States potentially use iPhones? Sure. ---------- Quote:
Until there is actual evidence to suggest that, don't take things too seriously on the internet. In reality the NSA's primary objective is code breaking and geo-political surveillance. With the amount of new immigrants coming into the country these days are you really surprised?

that same disillusioned stance was taken in the early 200s after the Patriot Act was passed, along with warrant-less wiretapping. The premise was "if you're not doing anything illegal, you shouldn't care about it". Yet Ben Franklin surmised it perfectly about giving up security for safety, let alone giving up his rights under the 4th Amendment. But then again, if he doesn't care about his Constitutional rights, perhaps he should renounce his citizenship. Quote:

If this is a law enforcement technique, by all means let's work out some boundaries. I think at the moment this whole spying infrastructure could be far too easily turned into a political blackmail machine. |

People should also read Robert Michels' "Political Parties", which predicted the outcome of the United States way back in 1911. The "iron law of oligarchy" is spot on in describing what would happen when government grows to the point where the people and vote can no longer control the bureaucracies that are allegedly there for their benefit.

...do we? The worst thing about it is the future potential for abuse. You could pretty much label anyone a terrorist if you wanted to. Right now, we narrowly define it as people wanting to blow up this, that, or the other for political reasons. But what about tomorrow? What if things go down hill considerably over the next couple of decades, and we get an administration that doesn't tolerate any objections to their policies and actions? They could label people speaking out against them as enemies of the state, and they'd have a system already in place that's perfectly tailored to tracking down anyone they want based on what they say and who they talk to. ...and who the people they talk to talk to. And the people they talk to talk to. And so on, and so on... It's a system that doesn't have to consider accountability for anything it does. No checks. No balances. It's run and administrated entirely in secret, and only has to answer to itself. It is, in short, a system just waiting to be abused. No, I'm not afraid of it now. But I'm afraid of the slippery slope that it's bound to become. |

It's already be said that NSA flunkies were using their tools to spy on spouses, girlfriends, ex's and celebrities. All with no oversight. Your entire list of thoughts and associations are now on display for evaluation and approval by the state. They don't like your musings, you could easily end up on some watch list or worse.

Are there any legitimate tech sources with this information or is this just some random fear mongering from a random blog?
It's pretty well known at this point that the NSA is collecting and archiving all communications sent over the internet & cell networks in the USA. But it's pretty hard to believe that the NSA is actually physically installing spyware to collect data on these devices. The scale of a program like that would be so massive this would not be the first time we'd be hearing about it. |

New England Patriots WR Wes Welker and Chicago Bears RB Matt Forte both entered the offseason in search of long-term contracts. Instead, both players received the franchise tag from their respective franchise's. Neither player has signed the tender offer from their team and will likely holdout through the offseason and perhaps into training camp, but according to reports, the players are not expected to miss any regular season games in 2012.
Chicago Bears RB Matt Forte has desired a long-term contract from the Chicago Bears for two seasons now. Heading into last season, Forte flirted with the possibility of an extended holdout, but the rusher finally reported for the 2011 season, playing out the final year of his contract. The franchise tag which the Bears placed on Forte will pay him $7.7 million this season. Talks between Forte and the Bears are currently going no where but the running back told reporters he expects to return to the team in time for Week One of the regular season. Beat writer Brad Briggs reports that he doesn't expect Forte to miss any regular season games.In case Forte decides to holdout, the Bears have already agreed to terms with free agent RB Michael Bush during free agency.
New England Patriots prolific wide receiver Wes Welker is basically in the same boat as Forte. Welker has been the perfect compliment for the New England Patriots style of offense, recording over 100 receptions in four of the last five seasons. He is coming off a career season in regards to receiving yards and touchdowns. Welker was slapped with the franchise tag prior to the start of free agency and is slated to earn $9.5 million in 2012. Likely to skip most of offseason workouts and perhaps a portion of training camp, Welker told WEEI that he won't miss any games in 2012. "There's $9.5 million reasons why I won't miss any regular season games," Welker told the radio station. New England has 12 recievers under contract heading into the 2012 season, adding veterans Jabbar Gaffney and Brandon Lloyd this offseason. If Welker were to sit out, he would be missed in the offense, but the Patriots could survive without him.

Best Foot Forward (M.G.M.) is an effervescent edition of the Broadway musical hit by the young, of the young and, especially, for the young.

Trust in God to help change society, pope says in Mexico's heartland
SILAO, Mexico (CNS) -- Celebrating Mass in the Catholic heartland of Mexico, Pope Benedict XVI told a nation and a continent suffering from poverty, corruption and violence, to trust in God and the intercession of Mary to help them bring about a "more just and fraternal society."
"When addressing the deeper dimension of personal and community life, human strategies will not suffice to save us," the pope said in his homily during the outdoor Mass at Guanajuato Bicentennial Park March 25, the second full day of his second papal visit to Latin America. "We must have recourse to the one who alone can give life in its fullness, because he is the essence of life and its author."

If you stayed the course and kept your money in stocks throughout the downs and ups of the financial crisis, then you're probably feeling pretty good about the way things have turned out, at least so far. But if you took your money off the table when the crisis hit and are still on the sidelines, you're probably wondering what your next step should be.
Stuck with cash
There's nothing as painful as watching the stock market soar while you're earning 1% or less in a cash account. Yet that's exactly what many people are going through right now. According to the Investment Company Institute, there's more than $3.37 trillion stashed away in money-market mutual funds. When you add that to all the money sitting in bank accounts and other short-term savings, you can see just how much work investors will have to do to get fully invested.
As if that weren't enough, investors face a host of challenges:
- Some people were fortunate enough to lock in relatively high rates on CDs and bonds when yields were a lot higher. As those investments mature, investors have to choose between renewing at much lower rates, keeping the money aside at even worse rates, or finding a brand new alternative.
- Stocks that offered investors good value earlier this year have made impressive gains during the market's rally. Companies like American Express (NYSE: AXP ) , Coach (NYSE: COH ) , and Discover Financial (NYSE: DFS ) have recovered most or all of their losses from 2008 and now trade at multiples to forward earnings that, while not crazy, are still far less attractive than they were just a few months ago.
- With unemployment topping 10%, investors are understandably cautious about their personal finances. Keeping lots of cash around when rates are near zero hurts your income, but the possible need for that cash if a financial emergency happens has forced many to stay conservative.
Despite these challenges, the overall belief that things will get better seems to get stronger every day. Just yesterday, Warren Buffett declared that the financial panic is over, implying that investors need to get back to basics and put their money to work in the best way possible.
How to get back in the water
If you've been out of the market for a while, though, it's hard to know how best to get back in. Having missed a big rally, you could be putting money to work at exactly the wrong time. Yet people have made similar arguments for months as stocks have tenaciously kept rising.
If you're confident that stocks will rise from here, then you'd be best off to invest your available cash in one fell swoop. It would have taken rock-solid determination to do that earlier this year at the market's lows, but it would have been the right thing to do, as prices on stocks like Goldman Sachs (NYSE: GS ) and Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL ) moved nearly straight up and never looked back.
On the other hand, you may not be so confident that stocks will rise from their much-higher levels right now. Gradually working back into the market via dollar-cost averaging could give you greater peace of mind, and for stocks such as Apollo Group (Nasdaq: APOL ) and MetroPCS (NYSE: PCS ) , you would have saved yourself from the full extent of their losses during 2009 and picked up some shares at bargain prices.
Stay safe
Note, however, that even though returns on cash are next to nothing right now, you shouldn't feel compelled to invest all of your money in other assets. There are plenty of valid reasons for keeping a percentage of your overall portfolio in readily available cash in case you need it, whether it's for personal use or to take advantage of more attractive investment opportunities when they arise.
But if you have excess cash on the sidelines beyond what you'd reasonably need for emergencies, you should plan how you're going to get it back into the financial markets. Whether you get your spare cash invested all at once or over a longer period of time, taking action now should help you reap big future benefits.

The main problem I have with this is Caylee was never missing! Someone in her family, her mother, killed her and dumped her.
I guess you could argue that Caylee was *missing* to George.
I saw both the video of George at the Haleigh search site and his appearance on the Geraldo show last night, lawyered up with BC in tow. Both events were painful to watch. He reeks of insincerity. I hope that the media whirlwind is not about to start again. His reputation is too damaged for him to be presenting himself on any forum and as a spokesman for any cause, especially one involving the search for a missing child. He needs to get himself a little part time job, maybe as a used car salesman which he has experience in, stay out of the limelight and in his free time write letters to the demon in jail. I am sure she would love to hear from him. Yuk.
The main problem I have with this is Caylee was never missing! Someone in her family, her mother, killed her and dumped her.

Say what you mean, mean what you say, but don't say it mean.
We are all just trying to make sense of an unimaginable crime.
I really feel for George. Im sure he's trying to change the outcome of this, Meaning, his granddaughter never had anyone trying to find her because they didnt know she was missing at the time.
BeanE, what a wonderful post! It neither whitewashes nor condemns George. I, too, think he means well, but I also think he has a weak character and poor judgment. Those two traits sabotage him at every turn, and they will also sabotage any future traumatized families who trust in his help.
I cannot, for the life of me, understand why GA doesn't realize that his poor public image will harm, not help, any victim's family who gets involved with him right now. And I also cannot, cannot fathom why he, a former police officer/detective, doesn't object to the criminal background and current accusations aimed at the unsavory founder of KFN (Sorry--can't remember the guy's name.)
What I am about to say contains no malice, but I've thought it often: If George hadn't qualified to be a police officer, I would truly believe he is simply a gullible man of below-average intelligence.
Hawk. My BFF
Snipped and bolded by me:
Re bold: And within 1 minute--with that 1 sentence, he managed to antagonize me. I instantly thought, "Why the h*ll do the As think they have the right to lecture others on how to think and behave?!"
Antagonizing people is not the sort of "help" Haleigh's poor family needs.
Hawk. My BFF
Does anyone find it odd that Geraldo asked G.A. if he regretted telling the truth to LE as it hurt his daughter by doing so. G.A. asked that his attorney answer the question. I am still not sure that G.A. has told the truth????? Why would G.A. not answer that question.
[I]GA - They need to eat, they need to sleep, they need the community support. They do not need to be judged, they do not need to be scrutinized, they need your help. The community needs to come together to help this family to bring this beautiful little girl home. I understand it. Some of you might not, but I understand it. So please help them.
How can GA, a former LEO, state in public that the family of a missing child does not need to be scrutinized ? IMO, GA should stay out of the public until after his daughter's conviction.
I thought it was great when Kimberly Guilfoyle remarked that a huge difference is that these people (Haliegh's family) reported the child missing right away (not 31 days!) She wasn't tip-toeing around George's feelings. George's situation has no bearing and no resemblance to the Cumming's, and none of this is about "helping George to heal" FGS.
This is my problem too. While someday, George's experiences, interests and his heart might lead him into service of missing children and their families, before that can happen in any effective way, he needs to deal with his own situation. He's still in the middle of stuff. He seems to want too come out too soon, too quickly after his own desperate hours, before the trial of his daughter who almost certainly murdered his grandaughter. He needs to get his own house in order and slog all the way thru his own mud before he wades into that of others. God bless him, but he needs to get his own situation finished and faced up to before he heads out to help. When the trial is over and Caylee's case resolved, he may very well have a LOT to offer various families involved in situations like his own, as well as others. Right now though, not so much, because he hasn't had enough time or space or resolution to process his own tragedy.
Great post, PattyCake. I agree!
I consider it sickening that George is using someone else's tragedy as therapy for himself. He needs to stay home and figure out how to push his daughter into telling the truth. And work with his lawyer on the testimony he will give in court. jmo
The Hokey Pokey Clinic - A good place to turn yourself around:
I thought the whole thing on Geraldo last night was odd. GA looked so out of place. When the bio mom starting crying and begging for her daughter to be brought back.....wonder how GA felt then....his daughter never did any of that. They never did any of this for Caylee. GA just doesn't need to be there....it makes him look real bad...IMO
I KNOW one "police officer" who appears to be borderline retarded. He got fired from his job (I was there when it happened) for throwing a pitch fork in a fit of anger. He married a woman, with kids, he met over the internet, and has cut all ties with his family who only meant him well. He got no recommendations from the job he was terminated from - yet, he managed to get on the force. GOD SAVE US ALL!
My opinion only
My husband was a police detective in a large city in Connecticut. LE gets a lot of respect and very often come under criticism. But for the most part police officers are in that profession because they want to be of service to people and they enjoy the excitement they often experience, some of it good...most not so good. My husband left after 10 years as he felt he had lost that edge needed to continue but he always would say, "You can take the man out of the cop, but you can't take the cop out of the man." George wants that recognition, wants to be respected because he has not had that in his life for a very long time given the information coming out of the household regarding how he has been treated by all of them. George is trying to juggle too much right now and is being driven by a very controlling force in that household. He stays with Kidfinders I think because they show him respect. Unless CA changes, he will never find his true self. What is really sad is how KC was "buttering him up" in that jailhouse video because she knows he will cooperate with LE because they showed him some of that respect in his interview. How sad because he can't see KC for what she is!!!
Bold mine.
I am sitting here, cracking up over the bold above. I typed those EXACT words at least 500 times but chickened out at the last moment before posting. Friday, thank you so much for writing what I couldn't.
I have scratched my head repeatedly, and asked myself if someone with LE experience can truly be so ignorant that they fall for the Nigerian email scam, or can make themself believe that human decomposition smellls just like pizza. It boggles the mind...............
Why is it that I feel the need to keep my tin foil beanie on at all times these days? Am I the crazy one? Or the normal one?
Please. Do not solicit funds on the board. I know intentions are typically honorable, but this is not the place to do it.
If you do have a cause that you would like to bring to the forefront and possibly get support from Websleuths, please contact Tricia first.
I think George is conning the public or at least he thinks he is. I think this is all about money he likes being on the stage and talking (imo without saying much) but how is that really helping people find thier children. He is trying to portray himself as a hero superman that will sweep in and find missing children but what skills does he have. IMO he needs to leave that up to LE who are the real HEROS, after all he did nothing to find his own grandaughter who needed him he could have been Caylee's hero if he wanted to and forced KC's hand more than he did.
This is my first post so forgive me if it isn't written right. I have been following this case and reading WS for many months, thanks to my friend sea urchin telling me about WS. I feel bad for George and am concerned about his mental heatlh, however being a spokesperson for finding children is not the right thing to do IMO. First if ga and ca had spent more time trying to find caylee instead of being so angry and threatening to those that were looking for Caylee, they might have credibility in finding children. I don't think they know how to look as they didn't look for Caylee, many others did, but all they did was to chase what "sightings" were reported. We now know Caylee was already gone so these sightings were false. GA needs to find something else to get involved in like convincing his daughter that it is time to tell the truth. I believe the family knows the truth but it is choking them to the point that they can't speak the truth. All of this is MOO. Thanks
If George really needs to help others to heal himself, perhaps he should start a support group for parents with children that are cold hearted killers.

Product description
Hunger is the compelling journey into the mind of a young writer who is driven by starvation to constantly fluctuating extremes of euphoria and despair. It is a study of the psychological hinterlands - the very edges of experience - where few writers have courage to tread.

Author information
Knut Hamsun was born in Norway in 1859. Hunger was his first novel and was published to great acclaim in 1890. He went on to write thirty novels and was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1920, but his later work never matched the dazzling originality of his earlier novels. He died in 1953.

'Disturbing and difficult as this nightmarish novel is, it is a work of imaginative brilliance that resonates in our own day.' - Herald

So true.
I like Cod4. but most of those things i agree with. But i like Last Stand, so much better than martyr. The rest, pretty much are ture.
I could never use Last Stand personally. Thanks for taking the time to review =)
The funny thing is, that this is so true. I agreed about 90% of thoose things, exept about 58, it rocks! :(. Overall, its too fast but still understandable and funny as hell :D
I tried slowing it down before and it still wasn't enough. Still, if I ever make a similar Flash on another game I'll bear that in mind and make it slower.
too funny!! british kids always are lagging our games! ^_^ too funny..im tired of playing kids who are too young. just today i played against someone who was 7... -_- it was sad.
B-b-b-but I'm British =o
Kids are annoying though. One of the points in this Flash I personally do agree with myself.
to get the jokes u have to play the game
Indeed. Thanks for reviewing.
That was so fuckin hilarious!As a cod4 player i understood all those jokes.Make some more.LOL!!!

Would you invest $20 today in exchange for a return of up to $40 each year? Of course you would! Yet, many building owners/operators ignore this investment opportunity when selecting the best source for lighting.
While some light sources may cost more initially, the resulting electrical and maintenance savings often equate to an impressive return on investment (see Comparing Costs of Operation, below).
Here are some facts to consider when choosing a light source, whether for a new building or retrofit:
IncandescentIncandescent fixtures account for the largest percentage of lighting sales. However, incandescent ranks as the least energy-efficient light source, and is being used less and less by knowledgeable building owners/operators concerned about maintenance and operating costs.
FluorescentFluorescent lamps are designed to meet a building's luminary needs while significantly lowering operating costs. When compared to incandescent, fluorescent lasts up to 10-times longer and is up to 4-times more efficient.
High Intensity Discharge (HID)HID lamps offer the highest efficiency, with more lumens per watt and the longest life-cycle.
Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) and Induction LightingLED technology is primarily used for traffic signals, signs, automotive, and specialty applications. As technology advances and costs drop, LEDs are emerging as a mainstream light source. Induction lighting has broadened their appeal with new advancements that offer incredibly long life-cycles and high lumen output. While presently at a cost premium, induction lighting provides exceptional maintenance savings, making it ideal for use in arenas and other difficult-to-reach applications.
Since lighting, on average, consumes half of the energy used in a typical building, energy-efficient lighting not only reduces operating costs, it also supports a clean and sustainable environment.

David Shayt summed up his effect on the world in fewer than 100 words.
"As a museum specialist at the Smithsonian's Museum of American History," he wrote in the Washington Post for a special millennium issue, "I have added to the national collections 91 packs of Crayola crayons, two electric barber poles, 44 shoe store foot-measuring devices, a Playboy bunny outfit, 46 eggs of Silly Putty, two McDonald's French fries scoops (left- and right-handed), 40 packs of cigarettes, nine cue sticks, 135 walking sticks, and a bullwhip used by Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones."
Shayt, an associate curator in the museum's work and industries division whose many interests included yo-yos, sundials, the development of the ivory trade and the work of cymbal-makers, died Nov. 4 of multiple myeloma at his home in Gaithersburg, Md. He was 56.
It was he who decided the Smithsonian should have a crown from the Miss America beauty pageant, and when he found a winner willing to donate one -- Miss America of 1951, Yolande Betbeze Fox -- she also gave him her scepter and sash.
Even within the ranks of the Smithsonian's intellectually omnivorous staff, Shayt stood out.
"I think he was one of the most versatile and agile members of the staff, and that's saying a lot," said museum director Brent Glass. "People tend to specialize within their subject matter, and David never set a limitation or boundary on his interests."
In the early 1990s, Shayt traveled to Guyana with a team of specialists to stabilize and repair the country's historic market clocks. In 2001, he was sent to dig World Trade Center artifacts out of New York's Fresh Kills landfill, including the door of a damaged firetruck.
He also persuaded a window washer who had been trapped in a World Trade Center elevator with five others on Sept. 11, 2001, to donate the broken tool that he used to dig through the elevator shaft wall.
"It's collected not as a squeegee handle itself, but as evidence of life's affirmation," Shayt said. "This is evidence of survival."
In 2005, Shayt and colleagues set off in search of historic items after Hurricane Katrina struck Louisiana.
"I wanted something that reflected the trauma of losing one's home, and I almost gave up," he said. But going through New Orleans' upended Lakeview section, he spotted a toy castle in the mud between houses, tossed upside down.
"Castles are impregnable and supposed to be our fortress," he said. "That toy castle spoke volumes about our expectation that houses are supposed to last." He sealed the castle in a container, mud and all, and took it back to Washington.
His favorite accomplishment, colleagues said, was overseeing the creation and installation of a bell for the Smithsonian Castle's clock tower. Installed in 1996, the D-flat chimes register at 30 decibels -- the equivalent of a whisper 3 feet away -- and remind all within earshot that it's noon.
"Even though it's the National Mall, we also think of it as a village green, and the bell will serve as a community sound," he told the Post.
Born in San Francisco, Shayt served in the Marine Corps as a security specialist at U.S. embassies in Guyana and Haiti before graduating in 1977 from Humboldt State University in Arcata, Calif. He earned a master's degree in American studies at George Washington University in 1983.
Survivors include his wife of 24 years, Suzanne Shayt of Gaithersburg; a daughter, Emma Chait of Montreal; his mother, Geraldine Shayt of New Bern, N.C.; and a sister.
After his Humboldt graduation, Shayt worked briefly at the Landor Museum of Packaging Antiquities in San Francisco.
Maybe that's why, when he joined the Smithsonian in 1977, he had a particular affection for quirky containers. He curated exhibitions that focused on tool chests, lunch boxes and the only known 1958 64-crayon box in existence, complete with its original crayons.
He also sought out coffins as representative of contemporary technology and craftsmanship combined with the age-old ritual of how Americans deal with death.
That kind of eclecticism brought inquiries from fellow staffers stumped on one topic or another. Over the years, he also fielded calls from the public and handled artifacts of dubious historical value that some people sought to donate. He was philosophical about the task.
"There's an accurate perception that we are forever," he told the Post in 1992, "that we will care for -- not necessarily exhibit but care for -- and honor an object eternally. That perception of immortality is very precious to people.
"There's a school of thought here that regards museums, especially the Smithsonian, as ecclesiastical, as quasi-religious, and that people give things as a way of obtaining a piece of immortality. Now that's getting very metaphysical, but there could be something there, because what we do offer is perpetual care."
