BERKELEY - Sophomore forward Ryan Anderson, who is averaging a Pac-10-leading 21.5 ppg, has been named first-team All-District 14 by the National Association of Basketball Coaches.
Selected and voted on by member coaches, the all-district players, representing 15 districts across the country, are eligible for the NABC All-America team, which will be announced at the NABC Convention April 5 in San Antonio, Texas.
Joining Anderson on the five-player District 14 squad are Brook Lopez of Stanford, Jon Brockman of Washington, and Kyle Weaver and Derrick Low, both from Washington State. Jeremy Pargo (Gonzaga), Jaycee Carroll (Utah State), Malik Hairston (Oregon), Patrick Mills (Saint Mary's) and Maarty Leunen (Oregon) comprise the second team.
In addition to his scoring output, Anderson is pulling down 9.9 rebounds per game, which ranks third in the Pac-10. He is also second in the conference in free throw shooting (88.0%) and sixth in the league in three-point accuracy (43.0%).
This season, Anderson is a two-time Pac-10 Player of the Week, and he was named National Player of the Week after averaging 30.0 ppg and 11.0 rpg in Cal's sweep of Washington State and Washington on the road Jan. 31-Feb. 2.

C.J. McCollum out of Lehigh University will work out for the Portland Trail Blazers on Monday, June 10, a source close to the prospect informed CSNNW.com.
McCollum, 21, is a 6-3 combo guard who is a for your-year collegiate player that averaged 23.9 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.9 assists, 1.4 steals and shot at a 51 percent clip from downtown during his senior season.
However, the guard only played in 12 games that year due to sustaining a broken left foot midway through the season against Virginia Commonwealth.
The guard averaged over 20 points in each of his season with the exception of his freshman year where he poured in 19.1 points a game.
CSNNW.com spoke with McCollum at the Chicago Pre-Draft Combine last month about the possibilities of landing in Portland and playing alongside Damian Lillard. He said he believes they can coexist on the court together.
"I think me and [Damian] Lillard can play well together," he said. "I think our games would complement one another while in the backcourt together. It can definitely work."
Most mock drafts have McCollum going anywhere from the No. 7 pick to No. 11.
The Trail Blazers have picks No. 10, 39, 40 and 45 in the upcoming NBA Draft on June 27.
There will be a great chance owner Paul Allen will be present at his third workout session on Monday. Allen has only attended the workouts of Georgia's Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Indiana's Cody Zeller.
McCollum recently wrapped up a workout with the Sacramento Kings who own the No. 7 pick.

University of Scranton dance group gives local kids chance to shine
Second-grader Allen Duverge sat in a gymnasium Friday evening hoping to learn some new dance moves.
Fifteen minutes after arriving at the Progressive Childcare Center on Olive Street in Scranton, the 7-year-old looked like a dancing pro himself, sharing the gymnasium spotlight with a college student. Dozens of college students and younger students from surrounding schools yelled and clapped as Allen showed off his break dancing moves.
"It's the only kind of dancing I do," he said after taking a break.
For more than a year now, about 35 students from the University of Scranton in a club called Urban Beats have spent every other Friday at the center, run by United Neighborhood Centers of Northeastern Pennsylvania, to teach kids new dance moves. The students don't receive special credit for visiting the kids, but they still think it's worthwhile.
"We just want them to smile," said Dana Ramalho, president of the college dance group. "We like having fun with them."
The young kids seemed to enjoy the high-octane dance moves. After watching members of Urban Beats perform, the younger students learned dance moves and interacted with the college students.
Kamille Blankenship, 11, has spent many of her Friday evenings learning dance moves. The gatherings helped her make friends and gave the fifth-grader another outlet to express herself.
"It's easy to show who you are," she said.
Many of the college students working with kids through dance said they want to teach more than dance moves. Brian Fischer, a senior business management major, said he enjoyed spending time with younger kids in a positive environment.
"It's really rewarding," he said. "We teach them life lessons when we can."

NPR had an interesting story last week about Khalid Sheikh Mohammed's days as an American college student. He started at a small Baptist college in North Carolina. That meant chapel and Christian study for the son of an imam.
Then Mohammed moved on to North Carolina A&T State University:
When he wasn't in class, Mohammed appeared to spend his college years in a kind of self-imposed isolation — about five miles off campus on a residential, tree-lined street. He and the other Middle Eastern students rented several apartments and turned one into a mosque, according to Sammy Zitawi, a friend of Mohammed's at the time.
"They will just go there and get together and do the prayer and between prayers, if you have a homework problem, they help each other in studying and all this," said Zitawi, who was also Mohammed's mechanical engineering lab partner. "They stayed with friends they could blend with."
Friends they could "blend with" consisted of devout Muslims who avoided the kinds of things you come to expect in college.
"They wouldn't listen to music, they wouldn't play music," says Zitawi. "He wouldn't take a picture back then because they thought it was against religion."
While the young men around Mohammed lived in a world apart, it wasn't an austere existence. Every Friday and Saturday night Mohammed and the other Middle Eastern students used to get together for dinner. There would be prayers, homework and then little skits or a play. The men called it "The Friday Tonight Show."
Zitawi, who is a now a small businessman in Greensboro, says his friend, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, was one of the stars. "This guy was funny, he could make you laugh," he said. "He could make fun out of anything."

303 Tasting Notes
This was a pleasant surprise! I'm not a huge lover of the coconut teas from DT (Coconut Oolong being the exception), but I had this iced today and it was pretty good! I think, if I ever have it again, to add some milk – this would be delicious as an iced latte! Also, I have to give it props for being organic!
Hurrah, new summer teas! Had this one iced to go today, and- mmmmm, delicious! It definitely reminded me of Strawberry Rhubarb Parfait, which is okay, since I LOVE that one. A different flavour profile might be nice, but I won't say no to another strawberry tea. You can taste the coconut, so it isn't as tart as SRP. Definitely getting more of this one – it's yummy on its own, and would, I think, be delightful as a mix for an, ahem, alcoholic beverage :)
Hurrah, another tea with passionfruit! This makes me happy! I don't really need another green tea on my shelf, but alas, here it is. I don't think I like this as much as Pink Passionfruit, but it's still tasty. At least, it is hot. I haven't iced it yet, which will be the ultimate test of a passionfruit tea. Again, this one is also a lot heavier for a green tea than I expected, which is kind of annoying.
I wanted to like this one better than I did, but I don't think any other honeydew tea will match my love for Honeydew Maté. Sigh. This was decent, but it's a really heavy tea, so I barely got anything for my 10g sample, which also knocks down the rating a little. The tea was also really, really light, and I'm thinking I should have added more leaves to my bag. Maybe next time!
A weird inital gathering of ingredients, but since this (to me) smells (and kind of tastes) like an oatmeal cookie, I'll forgive it. This is surprisingly good, and an excellent blend to have before bed. Also, yay, organic. Definitely will be keeping this one around.
Had this to go today… It's weird, because I tried some tea last week from the Dominican: pure cocoa husks. And it was delicious with some milk (I enjoy the slightly bitter taste of dark chocolate, so no sugar for me). When this tea was introduced, I knew I had to try it! It's good – one of the few chocolate-based teas I don't actually find too sweet. I didn't really get any blueberry taste with this, but that's not what I was going for, so it's not a big miss for me!
I was a little vary of this one due to the lavender (I'm not a huge fan of floral teas), but I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised by the taste (and I do love the fact that it's organic)! I got a strong strawberry flavour (yay) out of my cup, and the lavender wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be. I had this hot (it still feels like winter out, le sigh), and it is definitely a relaxing-type tea. I'd love to try it iced, see if I like it as much. Out of the three samples I picked up yesterday (this, Spa Day and Vanilla Rose), I think this is my favourite. I
Finally, a new tea for me to try! :) Quickly grabbed 10g of this to go this afternoon, and made a mug when I got home. A little too heavy on the coconut for me (though that might have been the amount of coconut pieces in my particular cup, I could certainly try and make it without), but the mango flavour does shine through. I do enjoy a good mango tea, and since this is cheaper than Mango Madness, I may be picking up more of this one in the future.

In decade where even the slightest annual gain was welcomed, it's no surprise that investors are looking to investments that offer above-average dividend yields. When it comes to bonds, there is a fear that rising interest rates and a rebound in equities could cancel out any annual income generated.
So where should investors turn to find above-average dividends without the risk of the bond market bubble bursting? The answer has been solid, large cap U.S. stocks that pay dividend yields much higher than the 2% that is currently the yield on the 10-year Treasury bond. (For related reading, see An Inside Look At ETF Construction.)
Investopedia Markets: Explore the best one-stop source for financial news, quotes and insights.
International Twist
Investors have been pouring money into the utilities, health care and consumer staple sectors due to their low volatility and above-average yields. I agree with this approach for a portion of the portfolio, however the strategy often overlooks international stocks.
Due to the lack of information on stocks based overseas and that do not trade on U.S. stock exchanges; the best approach to this niche area is the Global X SuperDividend ETF (ARCA:SDIV). The ETF has one-third of its assets invested in the U.S., followed by 23% in Australia, 9% in the U.K. and 7% in Canada. A total of five continents are included in the ETF that has 100 individual stocks in the portfolio.
The index the ETF follows attempts to track the performance of 100 equally weighted companies that rank as the highest dividend stocks in the world. The current 30-day SEC yield is 8.67%, one of the highest available for the individual ETF investor. The annual expense ratio is 0.79%.
The Holdings
The beauty of the ETF is not only the geographical diversification, but also the equal weighting. The largest holding makes up only 1.4% of the entire portfolio and the top ten holdings account for 13% of the allocation.
The number two holding is Philip Morris (NYSE:PM), the international tobacco company that distributes its products to over 100 countries around the globe, not including the U.S. The stock pays a 4.1% dividend and trades with a PEG ratio of 1.25. The tobacco stocks have pulled back recently, but remain solid long-term investments for willing buyers. Another tobacco company, Vector Group (NYSE:VGR), distributes its cigarettes in the U.S. under brand names that are viewed as generic brands. The stock pays a hefty 9.2% dividend.
Telecom Corp of New Zealand (NYSE:NZT) is the only other stock in the top-ten holdings that trades on a major U.S. stock exchange. The lofty 12% annual dividend yield has been attracting investors for years. The company provides a plethora of telecom services in New Zealand and Australia, and has over 1 million subscribers. The stock has underperformed its peers, even with the dividend yield, therefore investors must be careful not to be persuaded by the eye-popping 12% yield.
The Bottom Line
The ETF is currently trading at the best level in three months as the U.S. market continues to gain momentum. An entry in the low $20's for long-term investors appears to be the best strategy as of today. Even if SDIV is able to move sideways all year, a return of almost 9% based on the current yield is more than enough for most investors. (For more, see How To Pick The Best ETF.)

I think about storing project documentation in plain text format. The primary reasons/requirements are:
- easy for source controls systems to manage and track versions;
- simple to edit (any text editor);
- REDUNDANT - no additional software required for preparing the document (not generating the formatted result);
- can be formatted to HTML or other if using proper syntax.
So the question would be: what would be the best markup language to use for the given purpose?
Some of options are:
- Wiki Format (Very verbose IMO)
- Markdown
- Textile

This Week In Home Entertainment: The Wolf Of Wall Street, Veep And More
By Jessica Rawden 2 years ago comments
Delivery Man Blu-rayA couple of years ago, writer and director Ken Scott put together a charming and warm film about an irresponsible Canadian adult who finds out that he fathered more than 500 children. The movie, Starbuck, did well enough on the festival circuit that DreamWorks Pictures put some big stars behind an American version of the same film. The result is Delivery Man, an hour and 45-minute story about families and how decisions made in the past can impact a persons future.
At the start of the story, professional meat deliverer David Wozniak (Vince Vaughn) is having a hell of a day, getting stuck with parking tickets and missing the opportunity to deliver his teams uniforms for an important basketball game. Wozniaks a loveable goof, but his child-like behavior makes it clear that his does not have any clear goals or sense of purpose. So, when he finds out he has fathered 533 children through a sperm bank goof, its not surprising but its also a bit stressful.
Vaughn has the right comedic sensibility to play a schlubby goof and an affable individual. He hasnt quite figured out how to be a grown-up, but hes also good at doing really, really nice things for those he cares about, which helps audiences to sympathize with his character. However, as a comedy, Delivery Man doesnt always deliver. The movie is occasionally amusing, but its missing the laugh-out-loud moments that usually populate movies billed as comedies. Its a laid-back adventure story with enough breezy laughs to keep audiences invested in a watch, but it may be more of a rental than anything else.
You can order Delivery Man over at Amazon.
Best Special Feature:
The best Delivery Man special feature is definitely "Vince Vaughn: Off The Cuff". The script, as a whole, was very tight and not really improv-friendly, which is what happens when you have a careful plot, but there were a few occasions in which Vaughn was allowed to go off. It happened during the laundry room scene. It happened during the grilling tofu scene, and it happened when he was talking about his band at the dinner table. Its not as exhaustive or as funny as you might imagine, but it gives you a chance to see how impressed the other actors are by it.
Other Bonus Features:
"Building Family"
Deleted Scene"Youre Under Arrest"

Served 1981-1982
Appointed by President Ronald Reagan
Alexander Meigs Haig chose Inner Circles as the title for his memoirs and in doing so may have given ammunition to the followers of C. Wright Mills and others of the elitist school of American politics who posited that decision making is dominated by a small interlocking set of elites at the highest levels of American business, government, and military. Haig circulated at the highest levels of American political life as a governmental official, as a military officer, and as a corporate executive, but he was no scion of privilege. His rise to prominence in American political life started from modest beginnings and was marked throughout by significant adversity—his short tenure as secretary of state being only one small chapter in a remarkable life that, when captious criticism is placed to one side, shows him to be a man of significant accomplishment, talent, and character.
Haig was born on December 2, 1924. His father, Alexander Meigs Haig, was a respected lawyer who died of cancer in 1933 in the midst of the Depression, exhausting much of the family's financial assets. Haig's mother, Regina, a former English teacher, struggled financially following this tragedy to provide for Alex, Jr., and his younger brother and older sister. Haig worked at numerous odd jobs to supplement the family income, and with the help of generous uncles, the family managed to get along. Haig, whose father had soldiered in World War I, aspired from his boyhood to a military career. His mother urged him to follow his father's footsteps in the law, but his own instincts prevailed. He sought an appointment to West Point on graduation from high school, but was not selected. He went to Notre Dame until his sophomore year, when he secured, through the intercession of an uncle, a congressional appointment to West Point. He graduated 214th out of a class of 310 in 1947. Although his less than stellar academic performance led no one to predict his later success, Haig embarked on a military career at a time when the heightening Cold War was changing the role of the military from a war-fighting operation into a defense and peacekeeping business, dominated by theories of limited war, peacekeeping activity, and administrative organization. In such a con-text, Haig's toughness of character, determination, ambition, and not a little good

Quick Thinking
The Meyer Material plant is right on the edge of the Tri-State Tollway (I-294) in northern Illinois.
Producers could find additional revenue by tapping into the public works market, which is projected to be steady in 2009.
Elmhurst Chicago Stone's Mark Kroeger helped set up a portable plant near a very busy, high-profile interchange on the I-88 portion of the Illinois Tollway.
Another unique aspect of the public works market is the way concrete is bid. For most projects, producers provide the cost of the material FOB at the plant. General contractors typically hire the haulers. On many projects the contractor hires dump trucks and coordinates the number needed for each pour. Even so, producers often supplement the trucking with their mixers, charging an hourly rental rate to the contractor.
Conerty sees the success of producer involvement as subcontractors to the project managers on these large infrastructure projects as a regional phenomenon. As projects from the stimulus package start to come on-line, producers are eager to capture this expanding market. Conerty has had inquiries from around the country over the past few weeks from producers wanting to emulate the Chicago-area success.
For Dennis Spoerlein, a 40-year veteran and plant engineer/fleet manager at Meyer Material, producer involvement in large public works projects is nothing new. "I remember working on a portable plant when we helped construct several of the runways at O'Hare more than two decades ago," he says, admitting this go- around is vastly different. "While the expectation for production rates is about the same, contractors are demanding more product consistency. The cost of failure is very substantial."
Meyer Material is a prominent producer in the area, with more than 30 plants in northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin. It has entered the contractor market in a big way with two portable, high-production plants.
"We try to work with our contractor-customers to plan for the utilization of these operations," says Spoerlein. This spring, Meyer is setting up a plant near I-294 and Lake Cook Road. As his experienced crew completes the scale calibration, the final set-up in the process, Spoerlein is already planning potential moves for the fall. "Where we go when we're finished here in a few months depends on where the work is," he says.
Spoerlein believes proper plant setup is the key for success. "With so much riding on our effort, we take time to make sure everything is as well-prepared as possible," he says. Just before the move, Spoerlein works with the contractor to discuss traffic patterns and production schedules. He tries to anticipate the needed stockpile capacities. And he coordinates his activities with other local Meyer operations.
On this site, Spoerlein's greatest challenge has been poor soil bearing capacity. The contractor had just used the area as a stockpile staging area for crushed recycled pavement. Spoerlein had about a week to ready the site for the plant.
"The area was a mess, and with all the rain we had this spring, the subgrade was very soft," says Spoerlein. "We had to install a geotextile and haul in tons of rock to make the site sturdy enough for truck traffic. And we had to beef up our foundation for the plant."

The biggest rewards come when you challenge your fears. Mine was many years ago when I was brave enough to accept working as a teacher at a media college for six months (I'm dyslexic).
Please give us a brief bio of yourself.
I'm an Art Director for an advertising company that went interactive.
What do you do for inspiration?
Books, exhibitions, movies or just sitting and staring in my garden in Montpellier, France.
Please list 3 of your favourite sites.
I start my day with a cup of coffee in front of dn.se (one of the few good Swedish newspapers). I use www.linkdup.com to keep me updated on new sites and www.flashkit.com to get or give help to fellow flashers.
What software couldn't you live without?
Photoshop and flash.
What do you regard as being your biggest achievement?
The biggest rewards come when you challenge your fears. Mine was many years ago when I was brave enough to accept working as a teacher at a media college for six months (I'm dyslexic).
Afterwards the students gave me a painting and I have it next to my computer so I don't forget to be brave.
What projects do you have in the pipeline?
I've just got some new big clients but the project that I dream about at night is a site for a design book. They don't pay me but I can do what I want. I'll release it within two months.
Who do you rate as being the top 3 design companies?
I have no clue. I'm not really following what the big ones are doing.
What effect on traffic do your new designs have?
I was very surprised by the success I had with my portfolio site. Last month I had 52 000 visitors. Why? Well, I don't really know, but perhaps it could be that it's different.
What area of web design lacks the most?
Personality! To explore and to be faithful to your own creativity is hard. Much harder than looking at what others are doing.
Who is your target audience?
In my professional work it's the target group of my client. For the work I do for fun, it's the flash/design community.
What did your very first site look like? Is it still online?
It was for a printing company and it looked like a test print with cutting marks etc. They changed it; I guess they were tired of the huge gif animation on the first page with a paper flying around in a printing press! =D
Have you written any books, if not do you plan to?
No books
What was the toughest thing you ever did with Flash?
I'm kind of proud of my 3D engines and they are a part of most of my projects.
Do you think Flash is here to stay?
YES! But I think Shockwave will have more success now when people have broadband. There is so much cool stuff you can do with Lingo.
What type of overcoat do you wear when Flashing, basically are you a labels man?
I work at home so it's basically underpants but I try to get proper clothing on before my wife comes home from work. I have nothing against good labels.
How have you learned so many Flash/design skills and techniques and can you offer any advice for newbies?
For me the driving force is passion and curiosity. Advice… hmm… Try to work on your own style rather than looking at others' work.
You are the best in the world at doing your own thing but always the second if you copy.
Any parting shots or pearls of wisdom?
Be nice!

Clinic Services
Wellness Clinics
808 mobile wellness screenings were given at the worksite in 2014.
¡Salud! provides health education and screenings at the work sites. This prevention outreach program offers the following screenings:
- Cholesterol screening
- Diabetes screening
- Blood pressure checks
- Wellness information, including cancer awareness
- Flu and Tetanus vaccinations
- Vision Screenings
- Dental Screenings
On-site test results are explained to patients. Patients with abnormal test results are referred to one of the community-based clinics serving our clients or to their primary healthcare provider for follow-up.
Major Medical
¡Salud! works closely with patients to guide them through the process of patient billing to ensure that the appropriate paperwork for financial assistance and/or enrollment in the Oregon Health Plan is filed with medical providers. If patients are unable to qualify for financial assistance from a provider, the ¡Salud! staff negotiates the bill and ¡Salud! often provides financial assistance.
A recent analysis shows that we deliver $3 of service for every $1 spent because of relationships with partner provider organizations.
Dental Services
2,385 dental procedures were performed in 2014.
¡Salud! offers comprehensive dental care to workers and their families through a partnership with Medical Teams International. ¡Salud! contracts with Medical Teams International to provide volunteer dentists and hygienists and a fully equipped dental van. ¡Salud! schedules the patients and then assists them with accessing additional care when more extensive or specialized treatment is necessary. These clinics are held in varying locations convenient to the workers.
Additional services are provided by the community health centers and private providers. This three-pronged approach has provided us with a strong dental program.
How can I find a clinic?
Please check our Clinic Listings for more details on location or contact us if you have any questions. You can also see our Services News Blog for information on upcoming clinics and events.

Scramble the film backwards. Rewind. Go back to the day 10 years ago when the air here in Manhattan was thick with ash and Osama bin Laden was gloating. There were two options for the United States government -- to pick up a scalpel, or to pick up a blowtorch. With the scalpel, you go after the fundamentalist murderers responsible with patient policing and intelligence work, and steadily drain them of their support. With the blowtorch, you invade a slew of countries with a great blunderbuss of slaughter and torture -- and swell the army of enraged jihadis determined to kill. History branched in two possible directions that day.
We know which Osama bin Laden preferred. He wanted to draw the West into endless bloody wars that hemorrhaged billions of dollars and hundreds of thousands of lives. He told his supporters: "We conducted a war of attrition against Russia for 10 years until they went bankrupt. We are continuing in the same policy -- to make America bleed profusely to the point of bankruptcy." To achieve this, "all we have to do is send two mujahideen [to a remote, irrelevant area] and raise a piece of cloth on which is written 'al-Qa'ida' in order to make the [US] generals race there, to cause America to suffer human, economic, and political losses." He knew that every ramped-up attack would appear to vindicate his narrative about the "evil" West waging "war on Islam" and swell his army of recruits.
When bin Laden's favorite son, Omar, defected, he told many unflattering stories about his father -- including that he tortured his pets to death. So it's highly unlikely to be a double bluff when he explained that the day George W. Bush was elected, "my father was so happy. This is the kind of president he needs -- one who will attack and spend money and break [his own] country."
The West reacted to 9/11 by giving bin Laden precisely what he wanted. We tossed aside our best values, making them look like a hollow charade. And every time we did it more, the number of jihadis grew. The detailed studies by terrorism experts Peter Bergen and Paul Cruickshank have found that the invasion of Iraq, and the torture used there, caused a seven-fold increase in jihadism globally.
Yet last weekend, we saw how it might have been. The operation wasn't perfect: I would much rather bin Laden had been taken alive and put on trial, rather than summarily executed. But it was a precise raid. It took real risks to minimize the deaths of civilians. It didn't use torture. Most people in the world can support an action like this. This should have been the primary -- and almost certainly sole -- use of violence in response to 9/11. Instead, over a million people have died in the torrent of aggression. They were just as innocent as the civilians in the World Trade Center, and their families will never get their day dancing in the streets in vengeance over the men who ordered it.
I wish I could say that this is the contrast between Bush and Obama -- but that wouldn't be honest. This raid was an anomalous moment in Obama's foreign policy. Most of the time it has been a clear continuation of Bush's -- and in several crucial areas, a ramping up of it. He has doubled the troops in Afghanistan. He has more than trebled the aerial bombardment of Pakistan and Yemen, even though it kills 50 civilians for every alleged jihadi -- and creates far more jihadis in the process. There is still no end in sight in Iraq -- where 50,000 U.S. troops remain, and Obama has canceled the deadline for bringing them home -- or in Afghanistan, where the war is entering its tenth year. Osama bin Laden is dead, but our foreign policy is still giving him what he wanted. We are still bleeding cash, creating bleeding countries and more enraged people.
Why? Even General David Petraeus, the new head of the CIA, says there are only 100 al Qaeda fighters in the whole of Afghanistan. One senior military official, speaking to the Washington Post, compared their intelligence on them to "Bigfoot sightings." Crunch the numbers, which the conservative writer George Will reported recently, and you find we are spending $1.5bn a year on each al Qaeda fighter in Afghanistan. Is there anyone alive, except the private defense contractors making a fortune, who thinks that is a sensible use of cash?
The angry, fighting people who really are in Afghanistan are -- according to leaked CIA reports -- simply "a tribal, localised insurgency" who "see themselves as opposing the US because it is an occupying power". They have "no goals" beyond Afghanistan's borders. It's not hard to see why they fight. The situation in Afghanistan is now so dire that even the president installed as a puppet by the U.S., former oil-man Hamid Karzai, has been reduced to begging the occupying forces: "Stop bombarding Afghan villages and searching Afghan people!" while publicly threatening to "join the Taliban."
The fear that the country will become a hive of "jihadi training camps" after a withdrawal is based on a basic fallacy. First, they don't need training camps. The 9/11 attacks were plotted in Hamburg and Florida using box-cutters. The 7/7 attacks were plotted in Yorkshire. Bin Laden was living in a mansion. Second, there will always be somewhere in the world to set up training camps -- from Somalia to Yemen to Pakistan. The logic of this position is to invade and indefinitely occupy all the world's most dangerous places -- bin Laden's plan to the letter.
Many people are angrily asking whether the Pakistani authorities knew about bin Laden's presence. But few people are asking how our governments' actions may have made this more likely. For the past three years, the U.S. -- with the support of her allies -- has been sending unmanned robot-planes swooping over the country, incinerating thousands of civilians and increasing jihadism. When the country experienced its worst floods in living memory, it was used as a pretext to increase the bombings. If that was happening in your country, would you be more or less likely to cooperate with the people attacking you?
If we want to be able to dump bin Ladenism at sea, rather than just his corpse, we need to stop pursuing the strategy of expensive aggression he longed for. For the past decade, right-wingers have been chest-thumping about being tough on jihadism, while promoting policies that create far more jihadis. It's like bragging about how much you hate lung cancer while demanding everybody smoke forty cigarettes a day.
If you really hate jihadism -- as I do -- then you need to search for the policies that actually undermine it. The single most important thing we can do to undercut the jihadis is to make a key structural change in our societies -- by breaking our addiction to oil. Today, we need the petrol from the Middle East to keep the wheels of our civilization turning -- and that sets up an inevitably conflict. The people of the Middle East want to control their own oil, and spend the revenues on their own societies. We want to control the oil for ourselves. Only one can prevail. For our governments to win, they have to support the suppression of the Middle Eastern peoples, no matter how inspiring their democratic revolutions, and instead arm and fund their vilest tyrants, like the Saud crime family. This is going to create shards of violent hatred of us for as long as the policy continues.
As soon as the news of bin Laden's death broke, I headed to Times Square here in New York, and witnessed a scene that hinted at these complexities. A 28-year-old man was darting through the cheering crowds and the weeping fire-fighters selling the Stars and Stripes for $25 each. He was an Afghan refugee named Awal. He told me -- in fractured English -- that he had left "because of the war," which was "very bad", but he loved America "because here you are free." A drunk guy who was standing nearby overheard us and yelled with a smirk: "I'm a marine. I probably killed your cousin!" A few people sniggered; more scowled. Later, some of the crowd began to chant about the troops: "Bring them home! Bring them home!"
Who does al Qaeda really fear in this scene? If we follow the marine's course --- of more callousness and aggression and racist contempt -- the remaining scraps of al Qaeda may yet revive with new rage-recruits. If we follow the path of returning to sanity, they will wither. Bin Laden knew that. We know that. Now that he is gone, will we finally stop playing into his cold, dead hands?

The THYROID is an extremely large and essential gland of the body. It is located in the neck just above the mid throat region – or Adam's apple of a man. The body is largely in control of the metabolism of the body. "Burning†of energy, hormonal control and warmth of the body are often attributed to the thyroid.
Several hormones are important from the thyroid such as T4, T3, and Calcitonin. The control of the thyroid itself depends largely on another gland called the hypothalamus.
Iodine is quite important molecule of the thyroid. Its absence in the diet of some throughout the world can be a large problem. Its absence can cause a swelling or enlargement of the thyroid called a "goiterâ€. Iodized salt is a great way to add iodine to the diet.
TSH or thyroid stimulating hormone produced in the anterior pituitary is another hormone

City Guide : KilimanjaroTanzania is a magnificent land where warrior tribes and exotic beaches coexist. Kilimanjaro, located in the northeast part of the country, rises next to the town of Moshi, with its snow-covered and poetic peak. The 5.895 (19340 ft.) meter high peak called Kibo is also the highest point of Africa as a continent. Being the world's highest freestanding mountain, mount Kilimanjaro is also known as the roof of Africa.These mountains located 200 km southeast of the capital Nairobi and only a few kilometers away from the Kenyan border are also dormant volcano cones. The addition of this unique land, mesmerizing with its unique nature, to the UNESCO World Heritage List took place in 1987.
Tourist AttractionsPerhaps the optimal lodging area for those visiting Kilimanjaro is Arusha. The city, which is the largest residential area of the region with the same name, is an important location for those heading to Great Rift Valley and Serengeti Plains. The city, which became known internationally with the Arusha Declarations is the residential area with the best infrastructure in the country. While Kilimanjaro International Airport connects the city to almost every country in the world, bus lines from Arusha to other African cities make the city a significant point in terms of transportation.
A warm and humid climate dominates in the country. June-August and January-February are the optimal months to visit Kilimanjaro. The area, approximately 340 km south of the equator line, is approximately 500 km northwest and 560 km southeast of the city of Dar es Salaam and Lake Victoria respectively. The national park area is special for not only its peaks where numerous species coexist, but also for the eco-system on the foot of it. There are plains on lower altitudes used for cultivation of bananas and coffee beans. The dense forests located also on lower altitudes, bring out another and much softer side of the climate.
When you reach higher altitudes, a rocky and challenging type of vegetation surrounds you. However; the amazing view of Africa, which can only be seen from the higher altitudes makes one forget about all the challenging conditions.
Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro is on the list of things to do for almost every tourist visiting Tanzania. Town of Moshi is located closest to the base of the mountain. According to the 2002 consensus data, Moshi has a population of 144739. The town is also the center for coffee bean cultivation of the country. The fragrance of coffee, around which every day life of Moshi revolves, is on every corner in the town. Especially the trade of coffee, which is usually done in the form of an auction, is something to see. International buyers obtain Moshi coffee through these auctions and market it throughout the world. Another agricultural product that stands out from an economic perspective in the region is sugar. Sugar plantations can be seen right next to Moshi.
The streets of Moshi generally provide a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. The picture of tranquility emerges when the fragrance of fresh coffee and clean air come together with the quiet. Moshi is connected by land routes to the old capital Dar es Salaam through the city of Tanga. The region, due to its natural heritage, attracts more tourists than Arusha.
Culture & EntertainmentAmong African countries, Tanzania is one of those that managed to preserve its natural and cultural heritage. Perhaps the most impressive National Parks and game reserves are located here. Serengeti and Kilimanjaro National Parks , which expand with plains and moors, are considered the prime locations in continental Africa to observe wildlife up-close.
Observing the daily life of nearby tribes can be a very interesting experience for visitors. In order to do that, you can take part in daily tours organized by offices located at the city center. Coffee fields and other plantation areas can also be seen as a part of these tours. The purpose of the tours organized to Kilimanjaro National Park at early hours is to observe wildlife and, of course, to climb to the "Roof of Africa".
If you were to list all of the symbols of Africa one by one, Kilimanjaro is a place to find them all. You can see all colors of wildlife at the national parks. Kilimanjaro complements all that with a strong contrast.
In addition to the Maasai, tall with red robes, Tanzania is home to approximately 120 ethnic groups. Furthermore, it does not require much effort to see this variety. A regular safari gives you the opportunity to experience all the colors.
Another natural area, to which transportation was made quite simple and convenient, is Ngorongoro National Park. Gazelles, zebras, lions, leopards, cheetahs, and white rhinos-if you are lucky-can give you a unique safari experience.
Food & DrinkMtori, made with bananas and steak, is the most famous local dish. Mcicha, made with fish or red meat and vegetables, is another dish which is common. Ugali, considered to be the national dish of Tanzania, is a popular dish in the Kilimanjaro region as well. However, we must point out that every region has a unique way of cooking the dish. An interesting fact is that tea with milk is consumed quite a lot in the area. Locally, it is known as Chai Maziwa. Coffee, bananas, milk-although with a slightly different taste-, and meat is consumed widely as well.
ShoppingMoshi's one and only marketplace is a must-see location, even though you have no intention of purchasing anything. Generally; in stores located at the city center, there are many items which can be considered as souvenirs. You can find very unique handcrafted items, usually by women, only at the marketplace and on the streets.
Aside from the marketplace in the central part of Arusha, you can find a variety in terms of souvenir items at the Maasai Marketplace.

This important Jump Start video series helps IT Pros learn how to enable employees to leverage their own PCs, slates, smartphones and social networking needs (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn) on the job while providing the added protection of enterprise-grade security. It's clear that organizations should proactively address the "consumerization of IT" in a way that sparks creativity, encourages collaboration, and promotes innovation, but what approaches satisfy essential security, compliance and other requirements?
Since this is one of the most pervasive trends facing IT organizations today, Microsoft Learning partnered with Technical Evangelist David Tesar from Microsoft's worldwide Developer & Platform Evangelism (DPE) team to lead six demo-rich and engaging sessions. For each module, David is joined by one of Microsoft's leading authorities (and personalities) on the topic.
Embracing the Consumerization of IT Jump Start
What's a "Jump Start" Course? Training specifically designed for experienced technologists whose jobs demand they know how to best leverage new, emerging Microsoft technologies. These advanced courses assume a certain level of expertise and domain knowledge, so they move quickly and cover topics in a fashion that enables teams to effectively map new skills to real-world situations.

Iraqi leader pushes for security
Published: Wednesday, February 7, 2007 at 12:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, February 7, 2007 at 12:00 a.m.
Baghdad, Iraq | Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki complained Tuesday the long-awaited Baghdad security operation was off to a slow start and warned that insurgents are taking advantage of the delay to kill as many people as possible.
But he also reassured Iraqis that security forces will live up to their responsibilities.
The statement came as new checkpoints were erected and increased vehicle inspections and foot patrols were reported in some neighborhoods - providing the main evidence so far that U.S. and Iraqi forces were gearing up for a major neighborhood-to-neighborhood sweep to quell sectarian violence in the city of 6 million.
Underscoring the dangers as the U.S. augments its force by 21,500 as part of the plan, the U.S. military announced the deaths of two more troops, including a soldier who was killed Tuesday by small arms fire at a security post southwest of Baghdad, and a Marine who died Monday in Anbar province, west of the capital.
At least 51 Iraqis also were killed or found dead around the country, including eight slain by two car bombs in Baghdad.
"The operations will unite us and we will take action soon, God willing, even though I believe we've been very late and this delay has started to give a negative message," al-Maliki said in a meeting with military commanders shown on state TV.
Al-Maliki urged his commanders to step up preparations for the security plan, saying the delays had allowed insurgents to step up attacks that have killed hundreds in recent weeks.
"I say again, we have talked much about the operations, and while the Iraqis are waiting and waiting, the terrorists in turn have raised the level of the bombing operations and started killing people in mass numbers," the prime minister told his commanders.
Defense Secretary Robert Gates said the increase in U.S. forces in Iraq is "not the last chance" to succeed and conceded he was considering what steps to take if the buildup fails.
"I would be irresponsible if I weren't thinking about what the alternatives might be," he told the Senate Armed Services Committee.
Gates said the operation was to have started Monday. "It's probably going to slip a few days, and it's probably going to be a rolling implementation," he said.
In other violence, Iraqi police found the bullet-riddled bodies of 33 people - 19 in Baghdad - apparent victims of sectarian death squads.
The Shiite-led Iraqi government has pledged to go after the mainly Shiite militias largely blamed for such killings as well as Sunni insurgents suspected in most of the bombings.
Al-Maliki, who has seen sectarian violence rise since taking office May 20, 2006, despite two previous efforts to secure the capital, declared that Iraqi forces will live up to their responsibilities and told his commanders they must not disappoint those "who stand beside us."
Al-Maliki also accused other countries in the region of supporting militants to destabilize Iraq - an apparent reference to U.S. rivals Iran and Syria.
Iran, meanwhile, condemned Sunday's abduction of an Iranian diplomat as he drove through Baghdad, saying it held the United States responsible for the diplomat's "safety and life."
A military spokesman denied any U.S. troops or Iraqis that report to them were involved.
"We've checked with our units and it was not an MNF-I (Multi-National Forces - Iraq) unit that participated in that event," said Lt. Col. Christopher Garver, a U.S. military spokesman.

(Oct. 15, 2010)--More than 700 friends of The University of Texas at San Antonio including donors, elected officials, faculty, staff and students attended the annual President's Scholarship and Awards Dinner last night at the Marriott Rivercenter hotel. The black-tie gala, themed "Together We Serve," raised money for student scholarships and included tributes to recipients whose service has greatly enhanced UTSA and San Antonio.
"As we expand our focus on research and work to build a Tier One university for a top-tier city, we will never lose sight of our commitment to serve students and our community," said UTSA President Ricardo Romo. "That is why universities exist."
Former San Antonio Mayor Phil Hardberger received the university's Tom C. Frost Award. The award was created in 2003 to pay tribute to Tom C. Frost, local businessman and special friend and benefactor of UTSA, and to honor annually an outstanding citizen who has provided exceptional leadership to important business and community endeavors.
Hardberger, a civil rights attorney and former chief justice of the Fourth Court of Appeals, served two terms as the leader of San Antonio. In 2005, his leadership abilities were placed in the national spotlight as he led city efforts to help displaced residents of the Gulf Coast during Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. His legacy of service includes the expansion of the River Walk, service to the Peace Corps and Air Force, and the creation of Haven for Hope, a 37-acre campus serving San Antonio's homeless population.
Hardberger increased San Antonio's green space through the acquisition of Voelcker Park, which later was renamed in his honor. He also led San Antonio into the clean-energy sector through the Mission Verde Sustainability plan, carrying and implementing the city's largest bond initiative, $550 million for communitywide projects.
At the gala, UTSA honored Jim Bodenstedt '96 and Cathy Bodenstadt with the President's Award. The honor is given annually to an individual or organization that has forged extensive partnerships with UTSA and has supported its students and faculty in extraordinary ways.
UTSA honored the Bodenstedts for their support of the university's football program. In January 2009, the Bodenstedts announced a $1-million donation to fund football, the largest gift UTSA Athletics ever received. The Bodenstedts own and operate MUY Brands KKC, a 117-unit franchise company employing more than 3,000 people with locations in Texas and Mexico. Today, MUY Brands franchises include Taco Bell, KFC, Pizza Hut, WingStreet, Long John Silver's and A&W Restaurants. Jim Bodenstedt, a 1996 graduate of UTSA's College of Business, recently was named a finalist for the world's most prestigious business award, The Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year.
In addition to their generous support for UTSA, the Bodenstedts support charities and organizations where their restaurants are located including SA YES Foundation, Boys' and Girls' Clubs of America, Wounded Warrior Project, Muscular Dystrophy Association, Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, Operation Hands On, San Antonio Sports Foundation and local food banks.
KENS-TV anchor Deborah Knapp welcomed guests to the 2010 gala, which was co-hosted by Rick Cavender of Cavender Audi and Toyota and Robert Cavender of Cavender Auto Group. Robert Cavender is a member of the UTSA Development Board. Guests were treated to musical performances by UTSA student Rafael Moras and the Alex Sutherlin Project.
Romo also announced a $100,000 gift from General Motors to fund engineering diversity student scholarships.
Perhaps the evening's biggest surprise was a performance by Romo and co-host Rick Cavender. When Cavender broke into a jingle for his automotive group, Romo playfully grimaced. Cavender replied, "What? Do you want to sing a Tier One song?" The pair closed the evening with the traditional Mexican folk song, "El Rey."
The 2010 President's Scholarship and Awards Gala was supported by more than 70 corporate and private sponsors including title sponsors AT&T Inc. and Briscoe Ranch Inc.
The three-day workshop for graduate students and professionals in historic preservation focuses on materials preservation common to the San Antonio Missions. It's free and open to the public.

Initially, Credo plans to test the market for women's jeans in cities like Jaipur, Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Lucknow, Kolkata and some cities of Punjab. Once the brand is established, specific women's denim stores are being planned. Till then all Mufti retail outlets will be selling the new collection. "Initially, we will launch 25 styles.

At the moment, Mufti has 105 EBOs sized between 600 to 800 sq. ft. It plans to raise the number to 150 by March 2010. Of these, 10 to 12 EBOs are company-managed the rest are franchisees.

We are targeting Rs 150 crores next year," says Khushlani.

Sam Hinnant
Nov. 24, 2007
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) - Jesus Verdejo scored 20 points as South Florida beat East Carolina 81-67 on Saturday night.
All five South Florida starters scored in double figures. Orane Chin, Chris Howard and Dominique Jones contributed 17, 12 and 11 points, respectively. Kentrell Gransberry added 15 points and 10 rebounds. South Florida (3-3) won its third consecutive game after an 0-3 start, while Pirates dropped to 2-3 on the season.
Junior Sam Hinnant led East Carolina with a career-high 25 points, making six 3s in the first half. Sophomore Gabe Blair finished with 14 for the Pirates.
Down 14 points with 8:38 remaining before halftime, the Pirates went on a 20-5 run to take a one-point lead, 34-33, as Hinnant drilled his sixth 3-pointer of the half. Verjedo answered with a 3 to put the Bulls back on top before ECU sophomore Brandon Evans drove baseline and scored to tie the game with 17 seconds left in the period.
Determined not to let his team trail at intermission, Verjedo nailed another 3 from the corner just before the halftime buzzer for a 39-36 USF halftime advantage.
The USF lead remained single digits through the first eight minutes of the second half before it reclaimed its double digit advantage.
With his team up six, Verjedo hit back-to-back 3s to push the USF lead to 12, 52-60, as the clock approached nine minutes remaining in the game. The Pirates got within eight with under four minutes to play, but were never able to overtake the Bulls.
After shooting 53.8 percent from the field in the first half, the Pirates were unable to find their stroke coming out of the locker room as they made just 39.3.
USF finished shooting 44.8 percent (26-58) from the floor, while making 22-of-34 free throws.
East Carolina returns to action Wednesday night against Winthrop. Tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. inside Williams Arena at Minges Coliseum.
