- Levels of charged ions twice as high in wooded areas
- Deep-rooted trees such as eucalyptus even higher
- Effect created by trees 'channelling' radiocative radon gas from soil
- Not thought to be harmful to health on its own
Trees give off electricity, scientists say – especially eucalyptus.
Scientists in Australia found the area round trees was filled with charged particles – ions – both positive and negative.
Levels were twice as high in wooded areas as they are in open, grassy areas, and deep-rooted trees such as eucalyptus were even higher.
The researchers from Queensland University of Technology don't believe that the ions are in themselves harmful to health.
Researchers have long believed there is a link between trees and electricity in the atmosphere but have been unable to prove the association.
But scientists from the Queensland Univeristy of Technology have shown that concentrations of negative and positive ions in the atmosphere were twice as heavy in wooded area as in grassy regions.

Court, Feb. 3
Hazle Twp. man waives hearing
A Hazle Township man accused of assaulting a pregnant woman and attempting to set a home on fire during a domestic dispute Jan. 5 will face charges in Luzerne County Court.
Thomas L. Steward, 27, waived his right to a preliminary hearing Wednesday before Magisterial District Judge Joseph Zola on charges of criminal attempt at arson, recklessly endangering another person, use or possession of drug paraphernalia, public drunkenness and harassment filed by Hazleton police.
Charges of possessing instruments of crime, terroristic threats, loitering and prowling at night, a second count of arson and two counts of simple assault were withdrawn by police in court, according to a court docket.
Police allege Steward punched a woman who is five months pregnant in the forehead, pushed her to the ground and threatened her after a verbal argument turned physical.
After making the threats, Steward allegedly lit a piece of paper on fire with matches and then attempted to stuff it under the door of a home on South Wyoming Street, but the flames went out, court papers state. He then threw a piece of ice through the front window, police said.
Drums man sentenced in child porn case
A 22-year-old Drums man was sentenced in Luzerne County Court after being charged in a February 2012 child pornography case investigated by county detectives and state police.
David J. Kish Jr. entered guilty pleas to 10 counts of child pornography and five counts of dissemination of photographs or film of child sex acts, all third-degree felonies.
According to court records, he was sentenced to four years in the county intermediate punishment program, with the first nine months served on house arrest with an eletronic monitor. He also must register for the next 25 years with the state police Megan's Law.
Kish was charged Feb. 22, 2012, after investigators alleged he downloaded child pornography from the Internet.

Wilkes-Barre, PA Tornado, Aug 1890
The following is a dispatch from Wilkesbarre, Pa., dated Aug. 19. -- At 5 o'clock this afternoon the most terrible cyclone that was ever experienced in this locality struck this city. It came up the river, and the suddenness of its coming was one of its awful features. The heavens were as black as night, and the wind blew with most frightful velocity. Whole rows of trees were blown down. Following this, hundreds of houses were unroofed, partially blown over and completely demolished, and worse than all, the visitation of death was sent upon a number of people. Large districts in several sections of the city are in absolute ruin and women and children are in the streets crying and wringing their hands in absolute dismay.
The damage will reach hundreds of thousands of dollars. Passenger trains and locomotives at the depot were blown over, and every wire in the city, electric light, telephone and telegraph, is down. The devastation is to be compared to nothing in the memory of the oldest inhabitant. Everybody is rejoicing that no fires as yet have taken place, for the streets are impassable with trees and fallen buildings, and engines could not be drawn through them.
The total death list so far as ascertained is twelve. Four men are known to have been killed at the HAZARD WIRE ROPE WORKS. A house on Scott street, occupied by miners who had just returned from work, fell. Three of the inmates were killed. The huge stack of the KYTLE PLANING MILL fell on a man and two horses and all were killed.
A little colored girl was killed by a falling building on South Main street. Two men suffered death by the falling of a portion of STEGMAIER'S brewery and a third incurred the same fate through the almost complete demolition of S. S. BROWN'S brick business block on Market street.
There are undoubtedly fifteen or sixteen others killed. Many poor people suffered heavy losses, and it will be months before all the damage can be repaired, fully two hundred buildings being blown down or otherwise damaged. Many of the structures are of large size and great value.
The MURRAY shaft fan-house was blown down and the fan stopped. There are twenty-seven men men in the mine but it is hoped that they can be got out safely.
Later reports come from Sugar Notch, a mining town three miles from here, that the destruction of property was terrible, and fifteen persons were killed at Parsons and Mill Creek, four miles from here. Coal breakers in a directions have been more or less damaged.

Eew eew, gross gross gross!!!!!!!
Since when did Diana Ross get to be so white?
Keepin' it in the family.
Plastic Surgery'R'Us. Get nine procedures with us, get one for your family memeber free. Special pedophile (alleged) discount.
I don't even began to know how to comment on that picture.
Caption: "Crime Begins At Home"
MJ shows off his formerly white Dorian Gray doppelganger.
Who's Bad!
yeah, i had an uncle like that too
That is just soooooooo GROSS!!!!
I am gonna be sick!!!!
What a sick sick sick family. Are they so out of touch with reality to think this is OK? Just another family portrait….yeah right!
Eeeeewwwww now i have to hurl!
Something about this is quite disturbing!!!!!! Gross even
Eew! I just threw up in my mouth a little.
There's just no words…OMG!
And, in a declaration who can make me look as a bad and insane person, the photo is gross and disturbing in so many levels unknown by mankind… but the Wacko Jackson's nephew looks (somewhat) hot. So sad he has to pose with his wacky uncle; alone he could pass by a good-looking underwear model.
This is my package. This is my uncle fondling my package. Any questions?
See? I CAN keep my hands to myself around young boys!
Can y'all not SEE that this pic is photoshopped? Look how big his nephew's head is in proportion to the body. Give me a damn break.
that kid's head doesn't look photoshopped to me. If that were the case, both heads look photoshopped. But I'd be hard pressed to find someone who could alter that freaking pasty body skin color to match Mike's face.
As far as the caption, no words can describe this hellacious photo. Whoever that kid is, his career as a model – if he wanted one – if officially in the toilet.
I never comment on most celeb craps, but I hope 2 God that pic is a fake. What a twisted way of outing your sick perverted family thing in a public way!

"Eew! I just threw up in my mouth a little."
I just threw up in my mouth ALOT!!!
For the third time today I felt the need to let all those (whom I really don't believe are that naive) know that this a photo of Michael posing with his nephew (Tito's) son to promote the album. Completely photoshopped, as I have the original album cover at home. Let's not be ridiculously ignorant people. Bash Michael if you want, I can see why anyone would, but don't make yourself look like an idiot while doing it….lest you be just as mundane as the jackass who puts time into doctoring such a photo.
-i'm just sayin'
No Freaking way!
"Why go across town when you can go across the Neverland hall?"
It's Michael's fag alter ego.
Caption: "Dew Me"
Crime Begins At Home – hahahahahahahahahahhahahahah
look at his little piggy lolololololol
He's so sexual
I feel nauseated and I'm not joking. UGH!
where is chris hansen when you need him…
Left: What it is
Right: What it could have been
"I wouldn't do anything with him! He's atleast 14, that's far too old for me!"
See Uncle Mike, Im not 8yo anymore so quit hitting on me. * reveals pubes now*
Off to Neverland!
It is obvious to anyone with an ounce of sense and decency that Mr. Joe Jackson did a "number" on his clan. The sins of the father… the generational curse continues to this day.
To make matters worse, they are all plastic surgery junkies!
Just beat it!
I though this site was better than this!
pssst…Mikey, I know you have the Jesus juice an all, well I have the Jermaine juice right down here…wanna sip?
Damn this sucks! They grow up so fast!!!
It seems like only yesterday that I was… ur… hmmm…Playing with his…ur… toys.
Michael jackson is sexy…….but this picture is sick and wrong
Michael jackson is sexy…….but this picture is sick and wrong
To all those ignorant people who don't know and don't bother to do the research before commenting on a picture here's some info. Taryll was born August 8, 1975 their "Why" single came out on their 1996 album "Brotherhood". This photoshoot was for their "Why" single. Taryll was 20 or 21 years old when this picture was taken, HE WAS GROWN PEOPLE!!!!! Ya'll talk about Michael like this and like that, but that is a grown man half nekkid up there doin what is his prerogative. Also, if you look on google images there is another picture where they all are there and you can see that Taryll in that "Tunic?" alreayd has nothing on under that. OPEN YOUR EYES. The ILLUMINATI is still trying to ruin his image even in death! May God be with you all!

St Andrews students are set to hold a silent protest in reaction to Cardinal Keith O'Brien's controversial visit to St Salvatore's Chapel this Sunday.
The leader of the Catholic Church in Scotland, Cardinal Keith O'Brien will be visiting St Andrews this weekend. He will be giving a sermon on the Meaning of Discipleship during the 11:00am Sunday Service in Sallie's Chapel. All staff and students are welcome.
The Cardinal recently angered Equal Rights groups over his criticism of the Government's plans to introduce legality for same-sex marriages. He suggested that thelegalisation of slavery would be just as intolerable as homosexual marriages, and called the government's discussions 'madness'.
Equalities Minister, Lynne Featherstone, says that the change aligns itself with the UK's modern and liberal society. Scottish Secretary, Michael Moore, argues that a same-sex couple should have the right to celebrate their lifelong commitment to each other and for this relationship to be recognised as a marriage.
The LGBT Society will be hosting a silent protest, inviting all St Andrews students to wear colourful T-Shirts as a visible sign of solidarity. The rainbow of colours symbolise support for the fair treatment of homosexuals. All are welcome to assemble at 10:45 on Sunday, outside the chapel.

Bethany Atchison did not expect to find anything besides a compelling satire between the covers of Kurt Vonnegut's Breakfast of Champions when she recently bought the book at the Valley Thrift Store in Evendale.
Her particular copy of Vonnegut's beloved novel is gorgeous: a dark blue leather-bound cover with golden text and flourishes, gilded pages and only a minor dent, likely dealt by a careless shopper or employee. The spine has never been cracked down the center — the first telling sign of a well-worn book. It cost her 69 cents.
Adding a copy of Black Beauty and some cute blouses, she paid $12 altogether with exact change. She was excited to take the book home, open it for the first time and sign her name in the front page, just like she's done with nearly every book in her ever-growing home library.
Her fiancé Jeff instinctively gave her a felt-tipped pen upon seeing her unpack new books from her shopping bag at home. She opened her copy of Breakfast of Champions, pen in hand. But, as it turns out, someone already beat her to the signature.
The book was not autographed by its previous owner, but by its author, Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. — his John Hancock is unmistakable. It looks like Vonnegut drew an irreparably knotted shoestring on the page, akin to his trademark illustrations scattered through his writing. The Easton Press certificate of authenticity included with the book didn't hurt its credibility, either.
"At first I thought, 'Oh good, I'm always strapped for cash,' " Atchison says. The 24-year-old Mason native is a substitute teacher at Linden Grove School and a director at Kirkwood Camp in Wilmington, Ohio, during the summer.
She also nannies. A quick search of online auctions shows the book to be valued between $550 and $900. Nice, nice, very nice.
At the time of our interview Atchison had not read the novel. It's rare to find someone who will actually read a Vonnegut story for the first time on a book signed by its author. And, hey, she didn't have to pay the equivalent of a rent check to get it.
Originally published in 1973, Breakfast of Champions is centered on writer Kilgore Trout, a fictitious projection of the author, and a mentally unbalanced business owner, Dwayne Hoover. Chaos ensues as Hoover runs amok after reading one of Trout's science fiction novels that claims the reader is the only human with free will, while everyone else is a mindless robot. Hoover accepts it as truth. Vonnegut's humorous narrative presence is dry and dark, impressing upon the reader to appreciate beauty and happiness and to accept the tumultuous, uncontrollable forces in our lives with dignity and wit.
This particular signed copy acquired by Atchison was printed in 2001 and signed by Vonnegut May 23 of the same year. Vonnegut would have likely been working on material for his final collection of essays, A Man Without a Country.
This is one instance where a book is literally worth dozens of Kindles. Vonnegut, a candid Luddite, would appreciate this angle.
Will Beth sell the book?
"I'm fairly predictable with books," Atchison says. "I'll keep it."
She speculates it would make a perfect heirloom.
She plans to house the signed novel dead center on her bookshelf. There it will gain that delicious scent, faintly reminiscent of vanilla: the smell of a good old book. She has so many books that stacks of books are becoming bookshelves of their own. Her cats are book lovers, too — they sleep on them.
"One could imagine such a thing happening to a character in a Vonnegut book," says Julia A. Whitehead, executive director of the Kurt Vonnegut Memorial Library in Indianapolis. "I think Vonnegut would have loved to have heard this story."
The library houses priceless artifacts from the celebrated writer's life, including rejection letters from publishers, his own typewriter and even his last pack of cigarettes.
"It's interesting to me to see the value of his works increase as time goes by," Whitehead says. "When we first started the Vonnegut Library, it seemed that many people didn't recognize the value of Kurt's work (both the rare book value as well as the academic/psychological values), but as we met more true fans of Vonnegut, we realized that so many people around the globe identified with his words in important ways. I've had multiple people say to me that Kurt Vonnegut saved their lives as Vonnegut's words made a difference to them at a time when they needed a certain kind of connection to make it through certain life events. Vonnegut was that connection."

Vermont State Police said they had little trouble finding two thieves who were caught on camera driving off with a tractor-trailer from a home in Fairfield.
The victim had his security camera rolling Sunday. It captured Adam Wagner and Dennis Charland, both of Fairland, riding off with it on an ATV, investigators said.
The trailer was returned. The pair is due in court in August.

Actually, the Plugged-In Places programme is fully funded and steaming ahead
- Date
- 06 July 2011
By Robin Haycock, Head of Transport, The Climate Group.
I came across Independent's story 'Coalition scraps national network of charging points for electric cars' last week. It is always amusing when a paper gets it completely wrong. I don't think it is hard to write the story in the Indy, but they got it completely wrong and who will pick them up on it? So I support the words of the Transport Secretary in his recent letter to the Independent, which was promptly emailed to me.
Transport Secretary Philip Hammond's letter references the Indy article that was in the paper last Saturday, and his response reiterates earlier statements from him that it is simply not true that claims that the Plugged-In Places programme to install recharging infrastructure in eight pilot areas have been scrapped.
He goes on to say that 'The programme is fully funded and is going ahead in all eight areas as planned', and tells us that we should 'Be in no doubt - the Government remains fully committed to stimulating the necessary infrastructure to support plug-in vehicles'.
As I have said in earlier blogs, on the whole, this strategy seems to be moving us forward to a place where electric vehicle infrastructure is both economically viable and useful to electric vehicle owners.
Read the original story here.

Its approached that time of the year when we Brits start to believe we might actually get some nice weather in the coming months. Of course, the reality is this 'summer' we talk of will be a few select days of warmth surrounded by disappointing mild cloudy spells and showers.
But we can dream! And in those dreams we should be thinking about the accessories we are going to done alongside our short sleeves and shorts. Summer is a great time to accessorise as we have so much more skin on show and an excuse to wear sunglasses and hats without looking like a hipster. Here are five of my top accessories to enhance your summer look on those days we finally get some sunshine!
Leather Wrap Bracelet
A great way to add something different to your casual summer outfits. A lot of accessories can be a bit too formal for shorts and t shirt weather but a goo quality leather wrap bracelet can be both a cool and fitting addition to your outfit.
Ray Ban Sunglasses
Its not often I will go for an expensive clothing item as I have previously explained, but sunglasses are one exception. A good quality pair of sunglasses that is adaptable for any outfit is one of my summer must haves. And with black framed Ray-Bans you simply cannot go wrong. Equally at home with shorts and a summer shirt for a more casual look or formal wear for the office they are one of the few timeless classics in fashion.
The trilby has had a resurgence on recent years and is no longer the reserve of the festival goer. It presents a relaxed casual head wear option for long summer days and nights in the beer garden.
Summer watch
Short sleeves expose your arms and wrists and so a nice watch will get noticed. Choose something with a fabric or resin strap with breathable holes to avoid getting a sweaty wrist!
Before you get carried away remember you are still in Britain and rain is only around the corner. A compact umbrella which slots easily into your bag will save you from getting wet when the clouds inevitably arrive unannounced.

President Bush wants $1.2 billion in funding for hydrogen-powered, zero emission fuel cell cars. Researchers at Michigan State University say the idea is not bad, but it's misguided.
Dr. Harold Schock says the current plan is to convert hydrocarbon fuel to hydrogen. But he says that would cause a loss of almost half the available energy.
Schock is working with an optical engine at the Engine Research Lab at Michigan State. It determines how air and fuel are mixed and has the potential to help develop engines with 50 percent greater efficiency.
In order to have a serious hydrogen effort, Schock says nuclear energy would be the most likely means of producing it.

There's no excuse for that outfit plus her makeup looks bad. All she did was apply some lipstick.

I think the best dressed, and I never thought I'd say this, goes to Jankovic. Her understated and body hugging dress is very flattering.

Elena's dress does nothing for her body and her makeup makes her look hard/harsh.Allisonhttp://email@example.com

Unmold: Dip mold in warm water for about 15 seconds. Gently pull gelatin from around edges with moist fingers. Place moistened serving plate on top of mold. Invert mold and plate; holding mold and plate together, shake slightly to loosen. Gently remove mold and center gelatin on plate.
This salad can be made in small individual bowls or ramekins and unmolded on salad greens.

The flavor was off on this one and the texture was a little mushy. It wasn't terrible, just not great.
I love all kinds of Jell-O salads but I wasn't too sure of this one. My husband's 3 least favorite things are green peppers, cucumbers and tomatoes. To my surprise, he came back for seconds and the family wants me to make this again soon. I served a dressing of 1/2 mayo & 1/2 lite sour cream on the side. Mayo from the jar was preferred by the family.
A friend made this mess. It's absolutely awful. A friend and I have attempted 3 times each now to review this catastrophe, but surprise, surprise, it keeps 'disappearing'! I don't know why anyone would put veggies in jello. Disgusting!

July-August 1999 Gourmet Guess Contest Prize
William Bounds
This month's Gourmet Guess winners will receive a cook's collection of the best in pepper and salt from William Bounds, America's premier pepper and spice mill company.
The new Millennium Chef's Mill is the first pepper and spice mill specifically designed for cooking rather than table service. This large capacity mill has 5 grind settings and a removable measuring catch on the bottom that holds ingredients for measuring. Its durable ceramic grinding mechanism is ideal for spices because it won't oxidize, so you can grind spices over a steaming pot. In addition to salt and pepper, you can use it for lemon grass, cinnamon chips, coffee beans, dehydrated garlic, dried leafy spices and many more ingredients.
Winners will also receive a Salt Travel Mill and a Pepper Travel Mill, for gourmets on the go. These pocket sized mills are adjustable for coarse, medium or fine grinds. They come with black travel bags and have a trap door on the bottom so they never spill in transit.
William Bounds is also giving three of their popular spice blends: Italian Pepper Blend, Mesquite BBQ Blend and Garlic Sea Salt.
The total suggested retail value of this prize is $105.
William Bounds offers more than 200 pepper and spice mills for every occasion and taste, plus natural gourmet spices and sugars. Look for William Bounds at cooking.com, at specialty and department stores across the country, or call 800-473-0504 for store information.

Meridian, Miss. The people of Meridian weren't the only ones to celebrate Mardi Gras. Canines in the area were also included in the festivities during the annual Krewe of Barkus parade. The pet owners decorate their dogs in the spirit of Mardi Gras and show them off for the judges. This year that list of judges includes our very own Lindsey Hall. And officials say their owners don't hold back when it comes to preparing their pooches.
"People go over the top. We've had dogs dressed as ponies before, dogs with elaborate costumes on this year, dogs that get dyed," organizer Robyn Farquhar says. "Just unbelievable creativity from the residents of meridian with their pets."
Judges pick a king and queen based on enthusiasm and "spirit of Mardi Gras." the pet parade traditionally kicks off the Mardi Gras parade, by leading the way for all the other floats and cars.

There is a root domain with 30 child domains. People before me set it up with all of the child domains under the root domain site in Active Directory Sties and Services. The child domains have been trying to replicate with each other and we do not want them to. We also do not let their subnets communicate.
I started creating each child domain as its own site. After doing that it appears to only be slowing the correct replication information in Sites and Services but if I run commands such as dcdiag /v, repadmin /showrepl, or repadmin /replsummary it shows the server trying to replicate with all of the other child domains. How can I prevent child domains from trying to replicate to each other?

I have a quick question, I am working a project that requires an object that has an id and a x, y coordinate. This is all stored into an object and the idea is that it is placed into a 2D array. However there is a possibility of a great number of objects created and stored as well size of the array might be large. Is there something that is more efficient in size and speed in which the data can be stored? I read about using a map might this be my best option.
The answer depends on what your application's primary access pattern is.
If the primary access pattern is looking up the object at a particular x,y coordinate, then you are probably best served by one of the following:
(I suggest the 3rd option, because the second option is liable to result in creation of a temporary
If the 2D array is sparsely populated, then the Map approaches will save space at the cost of time. If the array is densely populated then the Map approaches are liable to use more space than a 2D array.
If the primary access pattern is to look for objects near a given x,y coordinate (or in a region) then you probably need something like a quad-tree data structure.
One final thing to note is that there are unavoidable overheads in using the standard collection types, especially when one or more of the parameter types is a primitive type.
The java.awt.Point will work, or you could make your own data type to hold the x, y co-ordinate.
This will give you fast lookups but use more memory than a straight array (not sure how much more, probably not anything too bad).
Another alternative is something tha combines the three things (ID, x, y) and stores them in an array and then uses Arrays.binarySearch to get at them. It would require that the array be sorted.
If you want to map from the x, y to the double you would do:

NEW DELHI: A fall in international gold prices will help bring down India's current account deficit, says Bank of America Merrill Lynch (BofA-ML) in its report 'Is the Gold crash Goldilocks?'. Falling gold prices are net positive for India, the report says.
According to BofA-ML, a $100/oz fall will compress the deficit by about $3 billion. "If gold settles at current levels, our FY14 current account deficit forecast will come off 40 bps to 3.9 per cent of GDP from 4.3 per cent of GDP," the bank says.

EELS HOLD ON | A big win for a struggling Parramatta Eels outfit today in Newcastle over an equally ...
15 hours ago - 1 Likes
St Helens piled on the agony for arch-rivals Wigan with a comfortable 48-10 victory in the Good Friday derby at Knowsley Road.
The engage Super League leaders maintained their 100% record to open up a four-point gap at the top and condemn the depleted Warriors to their heaviest defeat of the season in their first match since the sacking of Ian Millward.
A capacity crowd of 17,500 witnessed one of the biggest mis-matches in the history of this famous match as Wigan struggled to contain their high-class neighbours.
Without seven regulars through injury and suspension and fielding a barely recognisable pack, Wigan were involved in a damage-limitation exercise from the start, with precious little for their 2,500-strong loyal band of followers to cheer.
Wigan?s best spell came early in the match when, aided by a couple of penalties, they put the Saints defence under pressure and centre David Vaealiki went close to opening the scoring.
But there were echoes of their 75-0 humiliation at Knowsley Road last summer when Saints captain Paul Sculthorpe scored the first of his side?s eight tries after seven minutes, strolling through a yawning gap in the Wigan defence.
Centre Jamie Lyon, who kicked all eight conversions, set up a second for full-back Paul Wellens but Saints had to wait until two minutes before the break for their third, which came from Sean Long after half-back partner Leon Pryce had made the break.
Wigan would have been in an even worse mess but for the contribution of teenage winger Chris Ashton, who pulled off two try-saving tackles on opposite number Ian Hardman in the first half.
He also showed tremendous never-say-die spirit to deny Vinnie Anderson in the second half and demonstrated his pace to score an excellent long-range try.
Spirit alone, however, was not enough against a red-hot Saints and six second-half tries represented a fair reflection of the home side?s domination.
A storming break from man of the match James Graham and quick hands from Sculthorpe and Lyon worked Ade Gardner over at the corner within three minutes of the re-start.
Neat passing from captain Sean O?Loughlin and substitute Darrell Goulding then got Ashton into his big stride and he showed tremendous pace over 50 metres to ensure there was not another whitewash.
But it was only a brief respite for the Warriors. Hardman atoned for his earlier lapses by claiming a Sean Long kick to score a try and loose forward Jason Hooper touched down twice in five minutes.
The momentum was all with the leaders and the lively Pryce scored again from close range before Wigan gained further consolation a minute from the end when new signing Jordan James scored his first try for the club, which Pat Richards goaled.

I recently joined your great group and responded to a thread "Veggie Dogs What's Everyone Like?"
I assumed people into sports were also aware of the foods they ate and health minded - silly me. I once saw a man playing tennis and smoking while he played.
I did post info and links to help inform those who had negative remarks about our choice. As they say, you can lead people to water but you can't make them think.
FYI - Phyllis keeps up with recalls for the US, Canada, Europe, etc. http://www.efoodalert.net
I was just curious to see how many vegetarians/vegans are on this group.
Maybe we can exchange recipes.

The controversy over the preliminary UPSC examination has unnecessarily taken a political turn. The Civil Services Aptitude Test (CSAT) introduced in 2011 is seen by many UPSC aspirants as favourable to candidates who have studied in English medium schools. On the other hand, CSAT supporters claim that questions asked in CSAT are of school level and UPSC candidates must know that much English. Anti-CSAT agitation in Delhi led to a heated debate in Parliament over the issue. Despite the governments decision not to include marks scored in English in the gradation process, the demand for scrapping CSAT continued. Its clear that candidates, especially from the Hindi belt, feel that continued imposition of English denies them opportunity irrespective of merit. And that poses the big question: Can we do away with English in administrative services?
It is true that even 67 years after the Indian Independence, those with fluent English enjoy higher status. Till some time back, most IAS and IFS officers belonged to affluent families. Not only in academics but also in cultural, social and sports fields, English-speaking people excelled. Many who had the abilities were looked down upon simply because their expression in English was poor. Only the urban rich and affluent had access to good English-medium schools. Others who studied in regional languages, especially in rural areas, could hardly make it to the top. In progressive states such as Maharashtra, West Bengal and Punjab, bright vernacular students could achieve heights after struggling hard, but not in the rural Hindi states. UPSC was never in the reach of such students. Even after central governments decision to hold UPSC exams in regional languages, the dominance of English-medium students continued.
However, with the spread of internet, awareness about civil services grew. More and more youngsters even from rural areas started preparing, taking advantage of the available option of medium. As a result, at least at the state level, we find youngsters from backward regions occupying posts in administration. Yet lack of proficiency over the English language continues to deny them better opportunities in their career. Probably that was the reason CSAT was introduced in preliminary tests in 2011. Naturally, students uncomfortable with English see it as an obstacle right at the entry level. Support by opposition parties for scrapping CSAT was more for cornering the government than long-term interest of students. One must understand the issue in totality. English remains the medium for

Today I bumped into this girl after I got of the tri-rail who was waiting on her friend and but was somewhat in need of a ride because her friend was taking a little bit long. She needed a ride to her hotel and her hotel was about 10 or 15 minutes away. So me being the nice guy I am I decided to try to help her out and maybe she could help me out in the process. Long story short I gave her a few hundreds and a ride and she gave me a blowjob that I will be remembering for some time to cum!

Sierra came knock, knock, knocking on my door while I was about to do a little remodeling. At first I thought she did not know the password so I figured at the very least I could get some help moving shit around. Well, when I brought up furniture she pulled her titties out. And what a sweet, ample, perky pair of natural milk bags she has. FIESTA TIME PEOPLE. It was on. I sent her little ass upstairs, said fuck a remodel, pulled out my dick and got to work. First she sucked it, them she fucked it and it was some sweet tight pussy. I had a much better time working her boot than pushing couches...But, fuck I still have to move this shit. Maybe I can still get her to help.

Fiesta Time. Sierra showed up with some great huge round natural boobs. This chick had a rack so good you were bound to drool on yourself. So she flashes the entrance password and off we went. Did not take much to get her to show off that shaved pussy of hers. Sierra was the type of chick you scheme on in the bar. Long legs and bubble butt to match rounded her off just nicely. So talk about how much she liked to suck on hard dick and get fucked from behind led up to Sergio and all ten inches of his cock getting acquainted, up close and personel. Sierra got fucked really good. I loved watching her juicy ass bounce up and down as she got her pussy pounded with a fury. Party favors for all in this one. Enjoy.

Sinclair: The Shrinking Giant
Sinclair Broadcast Group is getting a bad rep on Wall Street due to a history of poor performance and what analysts view as a disastrous business decision to air an anti-Kerry propaganda film on all of its 62 TV stations this week. A boycott of Sinclair's advertisers is snowballing, and other unforseen troubles of the company's own making are bringing wave after wave of unwanted bad publicity.
The stock value of the corporate giant is in free fall. According to some accounts, the company has lost 11% of its value since the company announced its decision to air the controverisal film. A major story on the front page of The New York Times business section on Monday morning detailed stock analysts' concerns about the unwise politization of the media company, and predicted the very political and economic backlash the company is now experiencing.
Sinclair stock has dropped every day since the company ordered is stations to air the anti-Kerry hit piece — 8% on Monday alone. Knight Ridder Newspapers reported that when the stock market closed on Monday, "The stock has fallen 53 percent this year. It dropped 7 cents, or 1 percent, on Friday to close at $7.04. It traded at a 52-week low Monday of $6.49. Before Sinclair's plans to show the documentary more than a week ago was first reported, the stock was at $7.50."
It appears that its only going to get worse for the shrinking media giant.
MoveOn.org is emailing members urging them to question mutual funds and pension funds that are heavily invested in Sinclair.
The Baltimore Sun reported that the DC Bureau chief for Sinclair Broadcasting, Jon Lieberman publicly denounced the film as "political propaganda" and told his bosses he would not participate in presenting it as news. Lieberman's statement epitomizes the view of most of those who are outraged by Sinclair's dictatorial decision, "it's not about right or left," he said, "it's about what's right or wrong in news coverage this close to an election." He was later fired by Joseph DeFeo, Sinclair's vice president for news, and "escorted out of the building," according to CBS News. Now, of course, Leiberman is a hero to journalists everywhere for speaking up for journalistic integrity, and will undoubtedly be featured by every media major and minor media outlet in the U.S. this week.
News outlets nationwide were already running the story about how Kenneth J. Campbell, a University of Delaware professor and a decorated veteran of the war in Vietnam has filed a libel suit against Carton Sherwood, the producer of the film at the center of the controversy. Campbell claims that the film shows him at a 1971 war protest with a voice-over that claims many of those who took part in the event were later "discovered as frauds" who "never set foot on the battlefield, or left the comfort of the States, or even served in uniform." Campbell says he will add Sinclair to the libel suit if it airs the film this week.
Meanwhile, the boycott continues to gather momentum, and media reports continue to surface examples of businesses that have withdrawn their advertising. For example, HER Real Living, a real-estate company with 30 offices in Central Ohio, has pulled its ads from Sinclair's local Fox and ABC affiliates.
The North Carolina law firm of Henson and Feurst also says that is has withdrawn its advertising according to a letter posted on The Daily Kos. Attorney Thomas W. Henson wrote, "We spend each day fighting for these rights for our clients against companies and industries that abuse their power, and do not approve of a company which chooses to violate its use of the public airwaves in a manner inconsistent with our constitutional liberties."
The Sinclair story may very well shape up to be the most spectacular corporate meltdown in recent American history.

Dear Freddy,
"Senator" Flip Flop has run his entire election on his 4 month Vietnam record, but he refuses to let anyone comment, judge, or criticize it. This despite much evidence to show that he smeared his own "brothers" before Congress, received Purple Hearts under very questionable, if not fraudulent, circumstances, hung out with Communist tools who were not involved in the military, let alone Vietnam, aided and comforted the enemy in Paris (liberals love the enemy), and has his photo hanging in a VIETNAMESE MUSEUM honoring his contributions to the VIETCONG victory.
(Nevermind the nearly 40 issues upon which he has laughably contradicted himself, his negligent Senate attendance record, and his insincere and opportunistic comments on his Catholic roots. The Senator is Catholic unless such faith actually interferes with destroying defenseless unborn babies.)
With such a record, you would think it would be important that people knew the truth before voting. Instead, you thoughtlessly label the search for the truth about the Senator Traitor as "propoganda."
Why bother with integrity and truth, Freddy, when you and the leftist media have an unaccomplished and shameless Senator to shove into the White House?
Congratulations, Mark. That is a brilliant parody. It's amazing, isn't it, that there are Americans who can say such things in all seriousness.

Azle ISD nurse's Mission Statement: I believe in the health and integrity of the whole student. As an Azle ISD school nurse, I will incorporate all of the tenets of nursing practice to promote the good health of every student and to facilitate a healthy and safe environment conducive to learning.
Bringing a child to school with the below symptoms puts other children and school staff members at risk of becoming ill. This information is offered so that we may improve the general health of all members of our school community.
Remember that these are guidelines only.
Appearance, Behavior : If your child is unusually tired, pale or lacks appetite, these may be precursors to illness. These are sufficient reasons to keep your child at home.
Diagnosed Contagious Illness : Students may return to class 24 hours after starting an antibiotic or as otherwise directed by their physician.
Diarrhea : A child who experiences 2 or more watery stools in a 24 hour period, especially if combined with poor appearance or nausea should remain home.
Ear Infections without Fever : A child does NOT need to be excluded from school, but should be evaluated by your healthcare provider.
Eyes : If your child exhibits any mucus or pus draining from the eye, this may be a sign of conjunctivitis (pink eye), a contagious illness. Please keep your child at home and see your healthcare provider. He/She may return to school after they have been on antibiotics for 24 hours and are approved by a HCW (healthcare worker) to do so.
Fever : Oral temperature equal to or higher than 100.0 degrees (before taking medication such as Tylenol or Advil). Please keep your child at home until they are fever free for 24 hours WITHOUT medicine.
Lice/Scabies : A child infected may not return to school until they have been treated and are free of lice. Examination by the nurse is required before re-entering school. Children with scabies may be re-admitted after treatment. Documented proof of treatment by your healthcare provider is required.
Nasal Discharge and/or Chronic Cough : A child exhibiting these symptoms should be seen by your healthcare provider. These conditions may be contagious and require treatment.
Rash : If your child exhibits a body rash, especially with fever or itching, he/she should remain at home and be assessed by your healthcare provider. Heat rashes and allergic reactions are not contagious. These children may attend school.
Sore Throat : A child with a sore throat, fever and/or swollen glands should remain home. Contact your healthcare provider.
Symptoms of a Contagious Illness : Students exhibiting symptoms of a contagious illness should be evaluated by your physician. They may return to school as directed by the physician.
Vomiting : A child who has vomited 2 or more times in a 24 hour period should remain at home.
Parents are often confronted with this decision when their child complains of not feeling well. The guidelines set forth by the district and the Texas Department of Health can help you decide.
• FEVER: Students should remain home if they have a temperature of 100.0 or higher (before taking medication such as Tylenol or Advil) and should remain fever free for 24 hours without medicine before returning to school.
• CONTAGIOUS ILLNESS: Student's should remain home for 24 hours after starting antibiotics or otherwise as directed by their physician.
• DIARRHEA: Students experiencing 2 or more watery stools in a 24 hour period should be kept at home.
• LICE: A student infected may not return to school until they have been treated at least once and are free of lice. Examination by the nurse is required before re-entering school. Parents must also provide proof of treatment upon arrival back to school. Nits that are less than 1/4 inch from the scalp require removal before returning to school.
• VOMITING: A student who has vomited 2 or more times in a 24 hour period should be kept at home.
***Please remember if your child requires medication at school, a written note from a parent/guardian is required for ALL over the counter medication (this includes antibiotic ointment, cough/throat drops, tylenol, etc.) that is to be taken more than 10 CONSECUTIVE days. ALL prescription medications require a medication form signed by the parent and any over the counter medication that is to be taken for 10 days or more, will require an Azle ISD medication form signed by the parent AND a physician. This form can be found on this page under "forms".***

Sorority Life
The University of Virginia's College at Wise is home to three international/national sororities. These sororities are governed by the Panhellenic Council (PHC), made up of representatives from each sorority. The PHC sets recruitment dates and policies, plans Greek life events, and promotes Greek unity.
Sororities are self-governing organizations that offer significant opportunities for students to develop leadership skills. Members set policies and standards, serve in chapter leadership positions, manage budgets, chair committees, and plan community service and social events. Sororities are committed to academic success and often, chapters provide academic resources for their members, including planned study sessions and tutoring. In addition, sororities celebrate annual traditions, strengthen bonds of community and friendship, and are involved in numerous community service and philanthropic events.

The phrase brings to mind blockbusters, superheroes and epics. But this summer there are several films – mostly small flicks – that will feature or at least include, modern moms in their storylines. So get your gigantic tub of popcorn, your inhumanly huge bucket of Diet Pepsi and too-large-for-human-consumption box of Skittles. Here's a peek at some of the new and upcoming summer releases destined for a theater near you:
Georgia Rule (just released): This Jane Fonda-Felicity Huffman-Lindsay Lohan vehicle about the relationship between three generations of women is, sadly, getting mixed-to-tepid reviews. The premise: A fortysomething, stressed out mom is having trouble with her volatile teenager and brings the girl to her overbearing mother's home for the summer. Although I'm a big fan of Huffman's work, particularly as Lynette Scavo on "Desperate Housewives," critics are saying that her talents are wasted in this.
The Ex (just released): Amanda Peet played an unmarried, network TV executive on the now-canceled "Studio 60" who unexpectedly became pregnant. In her new flick, "The Ex," she's a lawyer who wants to leave her job just after having given birth so she can become an at-home parent. Her husband (Zach Braff from "Scrubs") is now working for Peet's dad and worries about being the sole income provider and about the fact that Peet's ex-boyfriend is his supervisor. Unfortunately, like "Georgia Rule," this comedy is similarly getting mixed reviews.
Waitress (just released): This movie focuses on a pie-making waitress at a diner (played by "Felicity's" Keri Russell) who discovers she's pregnant with her verbally abusive husband's baby. The film's generating fabulous buzz, particularly for Russell whose character struggles with ambivalent feelings about pregnancy as she assigns her pies passive-aggressive names like, "I Don't Want Earl's Baby" pie and "Baby Screaming Its Head Off in the Middle of the Night and Ruining My Life" pie. A Boston Globe film critic (http://www.boston.com/movies/display?display=movie&id=10230) said, ". . . it's built on fears, of motherhood and of making one's own way in the world."
Stephanie Daley (just released): Fair warning, this selection is very dark. Amber Tamblyn (from "Joan of Arcadia") plays a teen accused of killing her newborn to whom she gave birth in a bathroom stall. A pregnant forensic psychologist (played by Tilda Swinton), whose previous pregnancy resulted in a stillbirth, is assigned to the case to find out exactly what happened. "Much of Swinton's screen time is spent peeing, which puts [the movie] among the most honest portraits of pregnancy in the history of cinema," wrote the Boston Globe's Janice Page (http://www.boston.com/movies/display?display=movie&id=10185) in a review entitled, "A brave tale of motherhood and marriage."
Knocked Up (June 1 release): Everyone's been billing this flick as this season's "40-year-old Virgin." Probably because it was created by the same folks. Only it focuses on pregnancy, not, obviously, on virginity. The premise, according to The New York Times [1] is that a "statuesque, blond-haired career-oriented entertainment journalist . . . is carrying the fruit of" a one-night stand with a "pudgy, pot-smoking, porn-addled, job-free hero of the tale." The journalist is played by Katherine Heigl, best known as "Grey's Anatomy's" Izzie Stevens. Entertainment Weekly's [2] critics pegged it as one of the summer's most anticipated films.
No Reservations (July 27 release): Catherine Zeta-Jones plays a well known chef who becomes the guardian of her 9-year-old niece after the girl's mother is accidentally killed. Talk about sudden work-life dilemmas. "I know I'm doing everything wrong," Zeta-Jones says to the girl, played by the adorable Abigail Breslin ("Little Miss Sunshine") in the movie's trailer, "but I'll always be there for you."
The Nanny Diaries (Sept. 7 release): Based on the best-selling book by the same name, Scarlett Johansson stars as the much put-upon nanny in Manhattan waging battles with Alpha Moms.

There will be a bit more sunshine and that should take temperatures into the lower to middle 80s. The front will gradually dissipate across the region by Thursday but the residual moisture could give us a stray shower. There will be lots and sunshine with highs in the middle 80s both Friday and Saturday.

Former Jackson Co. employee who misused taxpayer money sentenced to prison
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - A former Jackson County court administrator convicted of spending thousands of taxpayer dollars on personal items is asking a federal judge to grant probation instead of prison time.
Teresa York, who lost her long-time position with the county in 2012 amidst the cloud of an internal investigation, is scheduled to learn her sentence on Wednesday at the federal courthouse.
In a court document filed on Tuesday , York's public defender requested leniency, citing a gambling addiction.
"She had an exemplary record and but for the recognized mental illness that she suffers, would never have been drawn to this conduct to satisfy her addiction to gambling," the legal argument read.
Last November, York admitted to misusing the taxpayer funds for her personal use. Part of the plea deal included nearly $78,000 in restitution.
In 2012, a 41 Action News investigation discovered the fraudulent purchases with York's court-issued credit card. The review of bank account transactions revealed out-of-town travel, clothing and makeup from Country Club Plaza retailers and $28,000 in gift cards.
Federal prosecutors will also be arguing for more than $60,000 of additional restitution for a contract they say York helped arrange for her boyfriend, who never did any actual work. York's attorney has claimed that government contract should not be counted toward the restitution amount.
York started working at the courthouse in 1984 and had been court administrator since 2003.
Federal prosecutors are requesting a 27-month prison sentence. However, York's public defender called that punishment "excessive," arguing the lesson has been learned.
"The defendant now has a felony conviction, has lost her ability to practice law, has lost her career and has suffered the public embarrassment of her actions," the document read. "All of which contribute to show the seriousness of this case and has punished her for her conduct."

What Happens Next?
As the world waits breathless for tomorrow's preliminary (only to be revised again and again) GDP estimate for Q2 2013 (having seen expectations collapse in recent months), there remains the ever-present faith that Q3, Q4, and on and on will see the mean-reverting growth lift the US economy from its current 'Better-Bargain'-less dystopia. So what happens next? Well, let's look at the trajectory of GDP expectations in 2007...
It is evident that there is an abundance of hope in futures expectations for GDP...
But where have we seen such exuberant hope before?
and how did that end?
