Many people enjoy downloading and uploading their music from their computers. However, slow downloads can cause problems for music lovers. If you'd like to increase the speed of your downloads--without buying a new computer--there are few things you can do.
Step 1
Switch from a dial-up connection to a cable or DSL connection. Dial-up connections can be slow for a number of reasons. The FCC regulates Internet connections over copper dial-up lines to a slower speed than what the lines can actually produce. Another reason why dial-up is slow is because of modem compatibility. If your dial-up and modem are not compatible, the speed will be much slower. Switching to a cable or DSL connection will allow you to surf the web and download music at much faster speeds.
Step 2
Close applications that take Internet bandwidth. Take time out to download your music without needing to do other things online (like school work, playing games, etc.). Close these programs to let your computer "focus" on just the downloading process.
Step 3
Close any applications you aren't using. Even applications that don't take bandwidth can slow down your computer overall.
Step 4
Clean up your disc space. Everything that you've downloaded, uploaded, viewed or read on your computer and the Internet is permanently saved to your "Temporary Internet Files" (which, ironically, not temporary at all). Click on "Start > Programs > Disk Cleanup > Temporary Internet Files." From there you can delete all of these old files that are taking up disc space. This will save you a lot of space that can be used towards new downloads.

I am in the process of implementing Zimbra within my organization. We have a Barracuda anti-spam filter that tags spam with [IS_SPAM] in our subject lines and I would like to create a rule for all users that puts this in a folder named Spam. Is this possible to do in Zimbra? Ideally, I would like to do this without turning on the AS/AV filters in Zimbra. Thanks.

I see it like you. It is very strange why Charr gets so much hate here.
Just look at Hayes heavyweight resume. His best wins are Valuev (he was **** at that time) and Chisora.
Charr lacks speed and world class skills. But this guy comes to fight was never hurt and CAn performe on a good level if he is in shape.
For me he made a good fight against Vitali before this bull**** stoppage came. I really belive they looked for an "easy escape" for Vitali. I NEVER saw such a stuipid ass stoppage in a heavyweight World title fight.
Look at Arreola his nose was a bloody mess and he had a big cut over his eye. Yet he was able to go 12 rounds. Or Abraham fought with a broken jaw! And was bleeding VERY bad.
But Charr gets stopped because he bleeds for 30 seconds? BULL****!
But still people say he is a bum and not good enough for Haye (WHO is Haye?
). This is just stuipid nothing more.

Ah, the ever-unrepentant Hansel-Man.
If Joel is still in Vegas, you should track him down and do an impromptu interview with him about HDMI cables, just to see if he flips out at you.
Hanselminutes on 9 - Joel Spolsky and Jeff Atwood preparing for StackOverflow KeynoteMar 18, 2009 at 4:23PM
You got the feeling that Joel was annoyed by Scott. He had that "I don't care about your f-ing HDMI cable!" look on his face.
Great interview, Jonathan, you did an excellent job. Looking forward to more videos on Pex and Contracts!
After playing with the library for awhile, I think this has a lot of potentials.
I'd like to give you guys some feedback as I considered how we would integrate this stuff into our codebase (that is, once contracts are under a commercial-friendly license!). Where do we send feedback?
Great stuff!
I must admit I was saddened to hear Spec# wouldn't be integrated into C# 4. But this is the next best thing; I'm glad to see design-by-contract getting some attention in the .NET framework itself.
If I may comment on the presentation, it feels like you both should have had your own presentations. It felt too rushed and too crammed.
Having Mike go deeper into the evolution of Spec# and why they chose a library instead of C# langauge integration would've been great. And Nikolai covering more real-world unit testing scenarios with Pex - for example, testing code with dependencies like the file system or UI using Pex, would have been a great presentation by itself.
Also, the rehearsed Q&A between Mike and Nikolai was cheesy. Too tongue-in-cheek!
Beyond that, great stuff guys! I'm really happy to see DbC getting some real attention, I believe it will help us write code that more clearly expresses our intent and contains fewer bugs. That's something every developer can get behind. Going to go download and play with the VS2008-integration...
I loved the video guys, great job. Made Oslo a lot easier to understand. I much prefer this kind of lighthearted explanation than a marketing-speak filled video.
Charles, you said in the interview that parallelism is not a key concern for C# developers.
Parallelism is huge, huge, huge for us. We've fought so many times with locks and deadlock problems and throughput in our code; we want better parallelism abstractions. I'd say it's #1 or #2 on my wishlist for C# vNext.
Thanks for the interesting video!
Countdown to PDC2008: By Developers, for Developers: Don Box and Chris AndersonAug 31, 2008 at 6:44PMSo, I was on the right track with the "chunks of 3" thing. Cool. But I wasn't able to solve it.
Just finished talking to palotasb (Boldizsar) above who solved it. He posted a discussion of how he solved it at his blog.
Wow. Nice solve. I'm blown away by his hacking skills. 15 year old, of all things!
Congrats on the solve!
Countdown to PDC2008: By Developers, for Developers: Don Box and Chris AndersonAug 30, 2008 at 5:29PMHere are some interesting stats from the cipher they flashed on the screen:
There are 708 characters in the cipher, excluding new line characters.
Given a chunk size of 3 characters,
There are 236 chunks.
There are 172 duplicates.
- All the characters are numbers between 2 and 9.
The 323 code shows up a whopping total of 29 times!
The 333 code shows up 11 times.
All other codes show up 7 times or less.
35 chunks start with a 2.
200 chunks start with a 3. (Interesting!)
1 chunk starts with a 4.
Despite the cipher containing 2s, 3s, 4s, 5s, 6s, 7s, 8s, and 9s, chunks only start with 2 and 3, except the 1 chunk that starts with 4.
There are no 0s.
There are no 1s.
There are 115 2s.
There are 293 3s.
There are 56 4s.
There are 38 5s.
There are 49 6s.
There are 52 7s.
There are 63 8s.
There are 42 9s.
The 323 code is very interesting indeed. I'm leaning towards chunk sizes of 3 being involved somehow. We'll see!

Hi All,
Bike noob here. I am biking mainly to help rehab my knee. A friend of mine has lent a mtn bike so I can test out the sport and see if I would like to buy my own bike. I have been looking at bike locks and the Kryptonite brand seems to be very highly regarded, in particular the Fahgettaboudit with its 18mm diameter. But some of the reviews of the Fahgettaboudit fault its 6" tube, claiming it's just a bit to small and limits the ability of items to lock onto and the ability to lock qr front wheel with the rear and frame. Some sites have claimed that the 16mm thick tube of the NY STD is nearly as good as the Fahgettaboudit but the 8" tube makes it more versatile.
I live in Atlanta and have been told that bike crime is fairly bad around here. That being said the bike will be housed inside most of the time but I would like to ride to the gym and occasionally to restaurants. The bike would only be locked for 1hr at a time.
I have read, on this site and others, that two locks is really the way to go but I really don't want to have to carry all of that gear with me. If I only carry one lock I would need to secure the qr front wheel and that is my dilemma. Get the better Fahgettaboudit but not be able to lock the front wheel, or get the NY Standard which would.
what are your guys thoughts?

We recently reported that Eidos Interactive reserved Tomb Raider: Underworld as a trademark. Unsurprisingly, this soon generated much speculation towards the direction that the Tomb Raider series will go in terms of concept and story.
Tomb Raider followers will soon enough catch a glimpse of what the upcoming title may deliver as Eidos is set to reveal the game in a number of ways. One of these includes an online marketing campaign that will kick off in January 2008.
However, it is currently unknown what form the game will be unveiled; in-game shots, concept art or pre-rendered footage? We will just have to wait and see.
Tomb Raider Underworld, as it is currently called, will be based on the Mayan calendar during a period where portals connecting the mortal world with the underworld existed. The title will release on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC.
PlayStation Universe will bring you more on Tomb Raider Underworld once it becomes available.

New Initiative Takes Taglit Grads to Next Advocacy Stage
Birthright Israel graduates explored topics this week rarely explored on their original trips in the first in-depth follow-up trip for outstanding alumni of the Jewish World's most successful Israel program. The initiative, the Israel Diplomatic Fellowship, is a new pilot program which brings back to Israel notable young American Jews who had already come here once with Birthright, and are viewed as committed to Jewish-Zionist activism.
Since 1999, Birthright (or Taglit) has sent some 230,000 young Diaspora Jews on their first visit to Israel, with funding from private philanthropists, communities, Israel's government and Jewish organizations.
In aiming to give the average participant a positive Israel experience, the packed Birthright 10-day itinerary does not leave too much time for developing participants' understanding of Israel's position in the regional and global contexts, as the fellowship program tries to do, say its organizers.
"I hope this program will transcend the 'American-tourist-meets-Israeli-native mode of conversation and begin a more in-depth cultural exchange about what it means to be part of the Jewish world globally," said Daniel Brenner, executive director of Birthright Israel NEXT, Taglit's graduate division.
Prior to its optional and concluding Israel trip, the fellowship program's 90 alumni receive six monthly meetings back in the U.S. about issues such as Israel and the United Nations, branding Israel, Israel's culture through films and its political establishment. In Israel, they hear NGOs and government officials, visit the Foreign Ministry and meet politicians. Almost half of the 90 alumni who participated in the Fellowship program did not attend the Israel segment, which ended this week.
'Access to high-level officials'
Led by Brenner and David Saranga, media consul in Israel's New York consulate, the new program is currently only held in the Big Apple, Los Angeles and Chicago. The Foreign Ministry's fingerprints are visible in the program's stated goals of providing participants with "access to high-level Israeli officials and connecting them to young Israelis working as ambassadors for Israel."
But that apparently doesn't mean all participants see themselves as ambassadors for Israel. "My goal for advocacy is not to bear the Israeli official line, because I don't believe in it," said alumnus Matthew Goodman from Chicago. "I believe in Israel, but not the way it's presented. I and many other pro-Israeli Americans don't accept the full Zionist narrative." Goodman, who studied Middle East anthropology, says he will take from the fellowship what he deems viable and "leave the rest." Though he describes his first Taglit trip as a positive experience, it doesn't match the fellowships' level, he says. "Israel advocacy at Birthright did not work," he said. "We got images of the waving Israeli flag and 1980s music. It was hilariously bad."
Rachel Gross from California said that highlighting Israel's "ability to admit some of its mistakes" can be a powerful tool explaining the country and culture to outsiders. "People telling Israel's side of the story need to also study the Palestinian narrative because no one's working in a vacuum here," she added, after watching a selection on Palestinian television clips with the other 49 participants.
One discussion involved comparing Palestinian militants and members of the pre-state Jewish underground. There may have been anti-British rhetoric among Jews in Mandatory Palestine, but it "wasn't institutional and didn't speak about annihilation," said Barbara Crook from Palestinian Media Watch, who spoke before the fellows last week in Jerusalem on Israel-hatred in the West Bank.
But while Gross and Goodman remain skeptical of the "official line," others seemed supportive of it during a scathing lecture by Danny Seaman, director of the Government Press Office. Seaman, who was born in the U.S. before settling in Ashkelon with his family as a child, linked negative coverage of Israel to Western anti-Semitism, naivite, arrogance and oriental fascination.
"Why aren't we seeing more of you in the media?" one young woman asked at the end of his speech.

|UN News Service, Ban welcomes resolution of situation in UN compound in Gabon, 27 February 2011, available at: http://www.refworld.org/docid/4d6c934ec.html [accessed 31 May 2016]
|This is not a UNHCR publication. UNHCR is not responsible for, nor does it necessarily endorse, its content. Any views expressed are solely those of the author or publisher and do not necessarily reflect those of UNHCR, the United Nations or its Member States.
Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon today welcomed the peaceful resolution of the situation regarding a group of people in Gabon who had been in the compound of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in the country's capital, Libreville, since 25 January.
"The Secretary-General commends President Ali Bongo Onbimba of Gabon for his positive cooperation with the United Nations which facilitated the peaceful and voluntary departure on 27 February 2011 of the group from the UNDP compound," said a statement issued by the spokesperson of the Secretary-General.
Mr. Ban welcomed the willingness of the people of Gabon to work together to ensure that differences were resolved peacefully in order to preserve the peace and stability.
"The Secretary-General reaffirms his readiness to continue working with the Government and the people of Gabon to help bring peace, stability and prosperity to the Central Africa sub-region, particularly as the United Nations sets up the United Nations Regional Office for Central Africa in the Gabonese capital, Libreville," the statement added.
Media reports said Gabonese opposition leader Andre Mba Obame left the UNDP offices today after staying there for a month after he declared himself "president." He was accompanied by about 30 other people.
Mr. Mba Obame, a former government minister, had claimed that he won the presidential elections in 2009.

The order and harmony of the universe can be much more easily reconciled with the iniquity of nature (incomprehensible natural calamities) if we consider that the universe is accidental and not something responding to a deliberate creative project. The exercise of free will, however, is possible only in the presence of a certain measure of indeterminacy, and this necessarily entails the possibility of unpredictable disaster. It must be said, then, in the light of the Anthropic Principle, that if man were to exist as a subject endowed with free will, then the iniquity of nature, pain and suffering would also have to exist. The latter are profoundly related to free will, not only because they may stem from an evil use of it, but also because they are the sine qua non for its very existence.

New Lawsuit Alleges Thousands of Illegal Utah Foreclosures
Salt Lake City, UT (PRWEB) July 08, 2011
The Salt Lake City-based law firm Mumford West & Snow, LLC , today announced the filing of a class action lawsuit against the lawyers for Bank of America and its wholly own subsidiary ReconTrust, N.A. for conducting thousands of unauthorized foreclosures in the state. The lawsuit, filed in Utah's Third Judicial District, is the latest development in an intense, ongoing legal battle in a state where the Utah legislature has recently enacted new civil penalties to assist aggrieved homeowners fighting illegal foreclosures and Utah's Attorney General, Mark Shurtleff, publicly announced that ReconTrust was not in compliance with Utah law.
Lead counsel Marcus R. Mumford explained, "These parties have demonstrated a long standing pattern of illegal activity in taking thousands of homes from Utah homeowners in unauthorized foreclosures. They continue to kick people out of their homes claiming that they are not required to follow Utah law. We intend to put a stop to that."
The lawsuit, Case No. 110409402 now before Utah Third District Judge Andrew H. Stone, is the first class action suit filed after the recently enacted changes to Utah law. Attorney Tyson B. Snow explains, "We recently met with the Utah Attorney General's office on this issue and it is our understanding that one of the purposes of the new law is to encourage this very type of lawsuit." Mumford West & Snow attorneys also intend to seek a statewide restraining order and a preliminary injunction prohibiting the named defendants from conducting any additional foreclosure sales within the state.
Utah's new law awards $ 2,000 or actual damages, whichever is greater, and attorney's fees to homeowners who have been subject to an unauthorized foreclosure conducted by "unauthorized persons." According to the lawsuit, in the past month, ReconTrust has foreclosed on approximately 200 properties and currently has more than 800 foreclosure sales scheduled in the coming months. The newly filed lawsuit also alleges that lawyers for Bank of America and ReconTrust violate Utah law each time they conduct these foreclosure sales. Utah homeowners who have been foreclosed on by ReconTrust or who may currently be facing a wrongful foreclosure can contact Mumford West & Snow through the firms website at http://www.mumfordwest.com

d'Oliveira & Associates, P.C. to Assist Auto Accident Victims with Head Injuries
Providence, RI (PRWEB) February 21, 2012
Impact to the head in an auto accident can cause the victim to have a traumatic brain injury (TBI), which is a permanent and devastating injury. d'Oliveira & Associates is assisting clients who have head injuries with their legal claims to compensate them for their injury.
When a person is in a car accident, they may not initially know that they have a head or brain injury. The brain can be injured even if an MRI or CAT scan returns normal results. Brain injuries manifest in a multitude of ways and have a wide range of symptoms. Some of the more common symptoms of a head injury after an auto accident include: headaches after an accident, dizziness after an accident, memory loss after an accident, mood swings, slurred speech, numbness, or disorientation.
Personal Injury Lawyer
In an automobile accident, there are three different ways that a person in a vehicle can sustain a head injury. The first is an open head injury, where an object penetrates the victim's skull. This can occur either from a projectile within the vehicle colliding with the skull of from the impact of the skull onto the vehicle itself. Another type of head injury is a closed head injury, which occurs often in motor vehicle accidents when the skull strikes a solid object, but there is no penetration of the skull. The final type is a deceleration injury, which occurs when the head is rapidly moved, and the brain moves within the skull. This can occur in an accident, due to the trauma from the movement of the car.
A severe brain injury can result in the injured person being in a permanent comatose state after the accident. However, even a "mild" brain injury can have devastating, permanent effects on a person's life. A mild brain injury can cause an individual to experience permanent changes in mood, personality, cognitive abilities, and their ability to carry out everyday tasks.
The cost of caring for a family member with a brain injury can have a catastrophic financial toll on a family.

Discover Something New at Home in Denver
Posted Dec 17th 2013 11:00 AMUpdated Dec 20th 2013 10:55 AM
New Restaurant: Session Kitchen
With a sensory feast of music ranging from ambient to alt-country, colorful pop-art murals and eclectic munchies that draw inspiration from the culinary traditions of Louisiana, Cuba and France, to name a few, Session Kitchen has breathed new life onto Old South Pearl Street. The focus is on sharable small plates like pastrami duck ham and fried Brussels sprouts and handpicked craft beer and cocktails. Brought to you by the same folks behind the landmark Wynkoop Brewing Co., Session occupies the building formerly known as the Izakaya Den, which moved half a block up Pearl Street to a snazzy new location adjoining its landmark sister restaurant, Sushi Den.
Place to Bring a Little "Home" Home with You: I Heart Denver
The I Heart Denver Store in the Denver Pavilions at the southeast end of the 16th Street Mall takes the souvenir shop and hyperlocalizes it. Proprietor Samuel Schimek hand-picks art, apparel, and paper products from the city's top artists and designers. Grab a LoyalTee T-shirt emblazoned with local landmarks of past and present or an eye-grabbing map of Denver's neighborhoods from January Jones Prints to show that you indeed "heart" Denver.
Word on the Street
Peyton Manning. He might be national news, but Denver hasn't gone gaga for a Broncos quarterback like this since John Elway retired in 1999. Whether you are an NFL fan or not, Super Bowl speculation is hard to avoid in Denver this season.
Eric Peterson once walked Denver's Colfax Avenue, said to be the nation's longest urban street, from end to end, and lived to write about it. He has also written numerous travel guides covering Denver and Colorado and is the managing editor of Confluence Denver.

In an attempt to determine the difference between the two, Wikipedia left me confused. Can you help?

This question exists because it has historical significance, but it is not considered a good, on-topic question for this site, so please do not use it as evidence that you can ask similar questions here. This question and its answers are frozen and cannot be changed. More info: help center.
A sequencer is a tool where you can record and edit the "definition" of music. Think of a sheet of music - It tells you what notes to play, how long each note is, and how loud or soft to play. Now imagine that you can specify each of these parameters very precisely for each note. That is what a sequencer does.
A synthesizer generates audio (sound). You tell it what note to play, how loud and how long to play it, and what sound to use, and it generates the waveform of the specified sound at the specified pitch and volume for the specified duration.
There are several ways to tell a synthesizer what to play. Some synths have a keyboard that allows you to pass this information to the synth by what keys you press, how hard you press them, and how long you hold them.
This article also has a good comparison.

"I was terribly sensitive to what people would think and feel. But my desire to taste all of life and try to understand it was so intense that I went ahead, regardless of whether or not people were watching me or approving, and so slowly acquired a new sense of freedom and confidence." – Eleanor Roosevelt
I think this quote by Eleanor pretty much sums up my experience of unplugging for twenty one days without real preparation.
My Great Unplug rolled off "accidentally" from my week of being sick with a summer flu in late June. I was forced to stay offline while trying to nurse myself back to health and I noticed how much I savored my time away. Baratunde's Fast Company article was a catalyst as well as my general interest in the benefits of unplugging. I was devouring every article I could find on people's experiences with digital detox which slowly brought on this challenge I've been wanting for some time. I didn't really warn anyone. I just left. This was the only way I could do it.
I didn't have a set time in mind. Honestly, I didn't think I could make it past a week. I knew that if I broadcasted my absence and set a specific timeline – I would break it, so I moved forward day by day. Unplugging afforded me the time to actually hear myself think. To hear my own ideas, my own thoughts and I wanted desperately to break free of obsessively collecting ideas, pinning pins, favoriting lifehacks, liking productivity articles and only really doing a small percentage of output than I originally planned. I collected more ideas than I acted on and I grew tired of it. I was tired of being so mentally exhausted all the time. And having so little energy left to be creative. I have some big life changes in the works. I needed to learn new habits and change the narratives in my head that made me feel trapped in certain cycles.
The first week was difficult. My dependency on social media to stay and feel connected to friends and family had a very strong hold on me, but I needed to train myself to be okay with missing out. I focused on seeing the time away as time invested in myself and I knew that if a major event was happening, I would get an email, text or phone call. And I did. Those I care about most knew how to get a hold of me and that gave me the confidence to go about my online absence with ease.
After three weeks offline (with only the music I listened to being the only digital footprint I left behind), I learned a great deal about non-attachment. Unplugging felt like another lesson in letting go. Allowing my online space to flow and change without my daily input or opinion was really liberating. Finally having the energy to focus on my next big step is so rewarding that I plan on implementing a period offline every season just to refresh my intentions. Stepping away to process without distraction developed a deeper connection to my goals; and until I allowed the break – I didn't realize how severely lacking I was in this focus. I needed and wanted the discipline. So I focused everyday in creating that discipline.
"One of the secrets of using your time well is to gain a certain ability to maintain peace within yourself so that much can go on around you and you can stay calm inside." – Eleanor Roosevelt
I'm still wrapping my head around a few more posts related to unplugging. One in particular that lead me to sign up in a volunteer leadership program in response to the outcome of the Trayvon Martin case. Head and heart still weighing heavily like many others.
For now I'm going to share a short list of what I loved and enjoyed during my time away:
- Meditating longer
- Exercising regularly and better sleep
- Reading (and finishing!) more books
- Better ideas and work quality
- Not slipping with my intention to leave work by 5:30pm
- Deeper and more open conversations
- Realizing that I have much to learn about mindfulness and I practiced more of it than I gave myself credit for
- Discovering and learning so much about the life and courage of Eleanor Roosevelt
- Finally hemming those pants, booking that car tune-up, buying a new pair of x-trainers
- Gearing up for a trip to Rhode Island and planning new adventures
- Weekend day trips
- Discovering the music of Toumani Diabate
- Cooking better meals
- Reconnecting with old friends
- Brief walks and picking flowers with my work buddy during our lunch break
- Learning to be a better listener
- Avoiding the urge to take photographs of every moment I liked, but enjoying without documenting
- Taking better photographs
- An overflow of creative ideas
- Learning to be more present
- Letting go
More soon. Thank you for reading.

NM teen spends time at church after family slain
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. The New Mexico teen accused of killing his family and plotting to randomly gun down Wal-Mart shoppers spent much of the day after the early morning slayings at his church, wandering the campus as dozens of Sunday school teachers were being trained on how to deal with a shooter, a security official said.
But it wasn't until hours later, former police officer and Calvary Albuquerque security chief Vince Harrison said, that he knew something had gone terribly wrong.
Harrison, who led the safety training Saturday morning, said he was called back to the church that evening after 15-year-old Nehemiah Griego told a pastor he found his family dead in their home.
"When I met Nehemiah, I knew something wasn't right," Harrison said Wednesday. "I could feel it, I could see it in his eyes and I could see it in his behavior and his demeanor so the red flags went up and that's when I called the sheriff's department."
Harrison, who had known the Griego family for about 10 years, said he drove the teen back to the family's rural southwest Albuquerque home to meet authorities, interviewing him along the way.
"He went into detail of where they were, where the guns were and he was very matter-of-fact, really cold so I knew something wasn't right," Harrison said.
After finding the bodies, sheriff's officials say, they took the teen to headquarters. During questioning, they say he confessed to shooting his mother and three younger siblings in their beds shortly after 1 a.m., then waiting in a bathroom with a military-style semi-automatic rifle to ambush his father upon his return from an overnight shift at a homeless shelter.
They say he also told them he had reloaded the family's rifles and taken them with him in the family van with plans to randomly shoot more people.
"That sends chills down my spine," Harrison said. "But obviously God had a different plan."
Harrison said several people spotted Griego at the church throughout the day and told him hello, thinking nothing of it until his arrest. He said officials then reviewed security video and found the teen had spent much of the day there.
The video has been turned over to investigators, who have been working to piece together what led to the violence and what happened in the hours that followed.
Harrison said he doesn't know why Griego decided to come to the church, but that it was like a second home for the boy, who was homeschooled.
"It was a familiar place to him," he said. "I think if he did have in his mindset to do something foolish and start shooting people there also, I think his demeanor was tamed a little bit because he saw people there he knew."
Sheriff Dan Houston said Tuesday there was no indication Griego intended to harm anyone at the church. The sheriff also said Griego and his girlfriend had spent much of the day together.
A prayer vigil was held at the church Wednesday night for victims Greg Griego, 51, his wife, Sarah Griego, 40, and three of their children - a 9-year-old boy, Zephania Griego, and daughters Jael Griego, 5, and Angelina Griego, 2.
Before the start of the vigil, members of the crowd shared hugs and handshakes as photographs of the victims were displayed on large digital screens at the front of the church. An estimated 2,000 people attended and nearly every seat was filled before the start of the hour-long service.
"Our hearts break, Lord," Pastor Skip Heitzig told the crowd. "We, often in times like these, scratch our heads and wonder why. We are at a loss for words and we are certainly at a loss for explanation."

How to Stop a Greenwing Macaw from Biting
Learn how to tame your macaw by trust, not force. These methods are easy and will only take a couple of weeks to perfect.
1Make sure you have the proper things to take care of your pet:
- A cage at least big enough for your bird to flap their wings in, and for their tail not to touch the bottom of the cage.
- Lots of toys to keep your bird occupied.
- A balanced diet consisting of 85% pellets, 5% varied seeds, and 10% fresh fruits and veggies.
2Gain your bird's trust. If you've just obtained him, he'll trust you faster than if you've had him for awhile. To gain the trust of your bird, feed him snacks (not too many, though, as he could get sick) directly from your hands through the cage bars. Do this a few times a day and praise him when he takes them. If he doesn't take them, don't drop it in his food bowl, as this will teach him that all he has to do is ignore you to get a snack. Just wait until the next time you try to give it to him and he eventually may catch on.
3Look to see if your macaw is hanging on the cage bars or raising his foot. This is a sign that he wants to come out, so take advantage of it! Open the cage door, and offer your arm to him, and say "step up" or "up". Make sure you yourself aren't nervous, because your macaw can tell. Make eye contact and he'll be less likely to bite. If he lunges at your arm, tell him firmly "no" and close the door. This will teach him that he can't come out of the cage unless he steps up onto your arm.
4When he's on your arm, tell him what a good boy he is. (If your bird likes to get scratches behind his neck, you can reward him by scratching him there.) Bring him to a quiet room free of distractions and put him on a perch. Here, you can practice the "step up" command.
5Whenever he lunges or snaps at you, make sure to say "no" instead of running out of the room right away. You can also take a finger and point it at him while you say no, which may help train your bird better.
6Whenever he steps up, make sure you tell him "good job" or something similar in a happy voice. When he goes onto a perch or back into his cage, give him another treat.
Community Q&A
Answered QuestionsAdd New Question
Ask a Question
- Don't overdo it with the practicing. At first, place him in the quiet room and let him sit there while you do whatever you would normally do in that room. After a couple minutes, command him to step up again, and simply bring him back to his cage, where you'll reward him. Gradually lengthen the time he's out of his cage.
- Because your Greenwing doesn't have hands, he'll use his beak to check that the surface he's stepping on (your arm) is stable. Don't be alarmed if he's just testing; jerking back with either cause him to bite or decide that your arm isn't stable after all and not step up.
- If he just refuses to step up, use a hand-held perch or T-stand, to make him step up onto. Then praise him and bring him to a quiet room to practice.
- Gloves are recommended for the first couple of days.
- Read his body language! If his eyes are pinning when you're asking him to step-up, or if you can just tell he's about to bite, pull your hand away, wait a couple seconds, and try again. If this persists the second try, say "no" firmly, and treat it as if he was snapping at you (but make sure he wasn't just opening his beak for balance to step up). Macaws will sometimes touch their beak to your arm for balance.
Things You'll Need
- T-stand
- Treats
- A perch in a quiet room

How adorable is this mini peplum dress for girls? It's made from 100% cotton and has long sleeves to keep her extra warm. Since it's gray you can dress it up with a pop of color, neon perhaps?

Great White Sharks in the Bay: Not an Urban Legend
So, many a wide-eyed surfer could have told you this around a bonfire at Ocean Beach, but now it's been confirmed by some legit research: great white sharks troll the Bay. In what's believed to be the first scientific confirmation of great whites in the area, researchers from Stanford and UC Davis tagged 179 white sharks from 2000 to 2008 and found that five of those bad boys swam beneath the Golden Gate Bridge in 2007 and 2008. Freak. Out.

As the White House and Congress make a final push to overhaul the nation's health care system, the Justice Department claimed a small victory on Monday when Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan said it would drop its proposed plan to purchase another Michigan insurer, the Physicians Health Plan of Mid-Michigan. Blue Cross cited the threat of a lawsuit from the DOJ in announcing it had abandoned the deal.
The acquisition would have given Blue Cross control of 90 percent of the health insurance market in Lansing, Mich., the DOJ said.
"We welcome the decision by Blue Cross-Michigan and Physicians Health Plan of Mid-Michigan to abandon their deal, which will preserve competition among health insurance companies in Lansing," Assistant Attorney General Christine Varney said in a statement. "The merger would have likely led to higher prices, lower levels of service and decreased quality of health care for consumers."
The companies had argued the deal would let them spread administrative costs over a larger member pool and help bring health care costs down.
Observers applauded the Justice Department's decision to block the deal.
"They never really just said no to a health insurance merger before," said David Balto, a fellow at the Center for American Progress, in an interview. "The record is becoming clearer that mergers haven't led to more efficiencies but rather increased premiums and led to a larger number of uninsured."
A recent American Medical Association study found that the market for health insurance in 96 percent of cities was highly concentrated, but experts disagree to what extent such concentration was the effect of weak antitrust enforcement.
Recent mergers have often included a buyer that had little presence in the local market and therefore did not raise serious antitrust concerns, said Alwyn Cassil, who heads public affairs at a non-partisan think tank, the Center for Studying Health System Change.
Concentrated health insurance markets aren't primarily a function of mergers, Cassil said, but owe more to the fact that regional health plans and provider-owned plans have largely disappeared.
Having a dominant insurer can indirectly help consumers, Cassil said, because they can negotiate with large hospitals and provider networks.
A 1940s law shields the "business of insurance" from federal antitrust laws, but insurance mergers still undergo a review by the Justice Department. A repeal of the law, the McCarran-Ferguson Act, has taken center stage on Capitol Hill after broader health care legislative efforts stalled. The House passed the antitrust measure on Feb. 24 as a stand-alone bill. The Senate has yet to act on the legislation.

[...] DOJ Threat Ends Michigan Health Insurance Deal – Main Justice [...]
McCarran-Ferguson was originally designed to empower both the federal government and the individual states so that they could act to prevent insurance companies from becoming abusive monopolies.
How ironic that it has instead enabled the health insurance industry to achieve exactly the opposite result because the federal government has chosen not to pass legislation targeting insurance monopolies and the states have, for the most part, shirked their regulatory responsibilities.
States haven't gone after obvious Health Care Monopolies because their budgets are stretched too thin and their pockets aren't anywhere deep enough to challenge the national and trans-national corporations.
All 50 States need to bring legal action collectively and the Federal Government needs to join the suit.
Allegations of price-fixing, bid-rigging, exclusive sales contracts, local price cutting to freeze out competitors, and the dividing up of markets need to be full explored so we can get rid of our dysfunctional corporate health care system that's choking the economy to death.
On a macroeconomic scale it would return money to "our" pocketbooks and be more profitable for America. Less money out of our paychecks going to Joe Lieberman and Ben Nelsons friends at Well Point would be a boom for the economy. It would enable an increase in savings and investing as well as spending.
Our money is being horded by the few to the detriment of the overall market place. That money needs to be returned to the tax payers in mass and available to stimulate the economy across a broad sector of markets as a whole versus the gain of a few Senators from Aetna named Lieberman and Nelson and the hysterically wealthy and tone deaf CEO's they greedily represent.
It's time to sue the Insurance companies regardless of the Healthcare Bill that Passes.

Jada Pinkett Smith's drinking shameJada Pinkett Smith once drank herself into unconsciousness, she has revealed.
The recovering alcoholic, who is married to actor Will Smith, confessed she used to love guzzling alcohol to forget her depression.
She said: "I used alcohol to numb the pain. I used to forget it all."
The sexy star, who stopped drinking when she married Will in 1997, has also admitted her mother was also an addict with a serious heroin habit.
She added: "I used to love it when I'd get to passing out point - just be gone from the world completely and have an excuse."
Earlier this year, Will confessed he and Jada have marriage counselling to keep their relationship on track.
The 'Men in Black' star says one of their first dates as a couple was an appointment with a psychoanalyst.
He said: "We wanted to start this off right, with someone to tell us what we were doing."

The Honda is much better than the Yamaha, only Bridgestone are allowing Yamaha to stay close, Dorna/MotoGP need competing manufacturers just like they need competing heroes. Lolz. The whole thing is rigged. Marc should have won 80% of the races this year, but hes not fast enough yet, Dani would have destroyed the field had he not been fighting traction issues all season long.
Vale is old hat, he will be gifted wins, Jorge will be gifted wins, this is how MotoGP will be from now on for the next 5+ years, manufactured to the Nth degree, control this control that, all false pretenses and appeals to the 'masses.' And as long as people forgive the stupidity Dorna will accept the Sponsors/TVs interests with open arms.
Marc is a 'good boy' for the people pulling the strings, he will stay behind people and choose to beat certain people to improve the 'quality' of the spectacle. Some people want to believe in a lie, and for them, this is MotoGP.

You know you are in for a treat when the first image of a film is Catherine Deneuve doing a light jog through the countryside, and Potiche does not let you down. It's a comedy of manners set in the 1970s and Catherine Deneuve plays Suzanne the wealthy wife of an industrialist who runs the family umbrella business. He's a sexist jerk and treats his employees poorly so they revolt and take him hostage. Deneuve steps in and starts to run the business, and surprise, she's not such a Potiche or translated to English -- "trophy-wife." She's pretty good at the business, the employees like her and she realizes that she has more to give than just staying home with not much to do since her children are grown.
Potiche is a coming of age story for a woman who was not allowed to want to be a business woman or anything else due to when she was born. But the times are changing and the women are changing faster than the men. Once Suzanne is in the business world she wants to stay and do more including run for office. This is a fun film that shows how much things have changed. It's a great history lesson especially for young women who really don't believe there was a time when women had less freedom than today.

Waiving Insurance (Domestic Students Only)
If you elect not to purchase the insurance through Rider, the Rider student must complete an Online Waiver Card so that the cost of the insurance can be removed from the student's account.
To waive the Rider insurance, the student should log into myRider at myrider.rider.edu (using EasyPass credentials) and click on the Student Information Tab . Enter either the Personal Information (lower left of the page) or the Steps to Enrolling at Rider section (top middle of the page). Once you open the waiver, you will need your current insurance information. If you need technical assistance with accessing the form on line please contact the help desk.
Here are some questions which you may wish to ask when deciding to purchase the health insurance plan provided through Rider University.
Rider University requires that full-time students be covered by health insurance. Rider University provides a group health insurance plan for full-time undergraduate and graduate students for which the fee is automatically billed along with tuition and other fees. If you currently have health insurance and are considering filing a waiver to be exempted from the Student Insurance Plan, please ask your health insurance carrier the following questions.
Questions to ask your insurance carrier:
Is the Lawrenceville, New Jersey area included within your health insurance carrier's benefit coverage area?
If not, then in effect you do not have health insurance coverage for local providers while attending school, which is nine to eleven months out of the year. Make sure you know whether or not you will require a referral from your primary physician if you need the services of a physician outside of Student Health Services or whether you will be required to return home for service.
Does your other health insurance carrier provide out of area coverage only in case of emergency care?
If so, how do they define an emergency? This may be your first extended stay away from home. Illness that might seem quite critical in the middle of the night may or may not be considered an emergency by a health insurance carrier. (Student Health Services is open week days from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm and closed at all other times, including weekends and holidays when the University is closed.)
Does your plan have a deductible?
If so, how much is it and under what circumstances is it due? Some deductibles are due annually, while others are due per occurrence (accident or illness). (The plan offered by Rider University has a $500.00 deductible.)
To what age limit can students be covered under your current health insurance plan?
You need to check your policy to make sure you will be covered. Policies vary, and age limits and/or full-time student status may affect your eligibility for coverage. This may change at the end of a calendar year. (There is no age limit for students in the Student Insurance Plan.)
Is the student required to contact the Primary Medical Provider before receiving emergency care?
Please verify with your personal insurance carrier. Students who obtain health insurance through Rider University may obtain emergency services without first visiting the Health Center.
Is the student required to obtain a referral form from the Primary Medical Provider before he/she can see a physician, specialist or psychologist in the Lawrenceville area?
Many health insurance plans and HMO's require referral forms from the Primary Medical Provider in order for the services of specialists to be covered. While this is not required by students who purchase health insurance through Rider University, our Health Center staff have knowledge and relationships with local specialists and will be able to arrange appropriate referrals.
Does your health insurance cover emergency dental care?
The Student Insurance Plan provides limited emergency dental care for accidental injuries.

FAQ for the Accident and Sickness (A&S) Insurance Plan
What is the policy number for the 2015-2016 Rider University Domestic Student Accident and Sickness Plan?
The 2015-2016 policy number is 2015-G3A36 (Lawrenceville campus) and 2015-G3A58 (Westminster campus).
What is the effective date?
August 20, 2015 or the date TL Groseclose Inc. receives your premium check, whichever is later.
What is the policy expiration date?
August 20, 2016 Even if you leave school or graduate, your coverage will remain in force until that date.
Can I get the insurance to cover my spouse and/or children?
What does this insurance cover?
This insurance covers medical expenses which arise from a pre-existing medical condition, accidental injury, or a sickness which occurs while you are covered under this program.
Does this policy pay all medical bills in full?
In most cases, it will not. There are exclusions and limitations in the policy, so you will need to refer to the brochure.
Can I go to any doctor?
Yes you can. However, the Insurance Company does work with the QualCare. Going to a QualCare provider or facility would in most cases result in lower charges which would directly lower any co-payments that you would have to pay.
What if I am out of state when I get sick or injured?
This insurance plan will cover you for any illness or injury which occurs out of state. You must follow the same procedures in filing a claim as if it had happened here in New Jersey.
How do I get an I.D. card?
The I.D. card is included in the brochure.
Claim Procedure
In the event of a non-emergency injury or sickness, student should:
- You may choose to report to the Student Health Center (if in the immediate area and the center is open). If the Health Center is closed, or in the event of an emergency, seek immediate treatment from the nearest doctor or hospital. You may search for an in-network healthcare provider on the following website: www.qualcareinc.com.
If away from the area, secure treatment from a hospital or licensed physician. The Student Health Center will provide necessary instructions for filing claims.
You may choose to obtain medical services and provide the hospital or clinican with your insurance information so that a claim may be processed directly by the provider on your behalf
Obtain treatment and a copy of the itemized bill to be submitted for payment by mailing directly to the Claims Administrator
Pay the bill and obtain a copy of the itemized charges for personal reimbursement by mailing directly to the Claims Administrator.

Sumter County's race for sheriff featured the Democratic nominee, Tyrone Clark, Sr., and write-in candidate, Thomas Lewis.
The two also faced off in the Democratic Primary this past summer. But Clark took the race Tuesday with 63% of the vote.
Sumter County election officials stayed until the wee hours of the Wednesday morning to count all the votes.
"I just can't thank the voters enough for coming out in support of doing the right thing," said Clark. "Unfortunately, we had this to happen, the write-in thing. But nevertheless, the voters have proven to me that they are upstanding, outstanding citizens and tonight it really showed."
Clark will succeed longtime sheriff, Johnny Hatter, who is retiring.
In Choctaw County, Democratic nominee Lee Henry McGrew, a former chief deputy, faced a challenge from an independent candidate.
Tom Abate defeated McGrew by a 3,505-to-3,318 margin in Tuesday's voting.
About 119 provisional ballots are still outstanding from Nov. 2. Those will be examined Nov. 9, but officials in the probate judge's office said they would not be enough to affect the outcome of the election.
