"To be honest I do not think you can make up for it." — Byron Scott, 12/3/12
It wasn't all that long ago when a Cavaliers-Pistons match-up was must-watch television. If you need proof, just ask Tayshaun Prince, Jason Maxiell, Anderson Varejao or Daniel Gibson — the only four men to play in the 2007 Eastern Conference Finals who happen to still be playing for their respective teams.
Making matters worse, at least on this night, where the Palace at Auburn Hills had more seats vacant than not: the Cavaliers would be traveling up Interstate 75 without their entire starting backcourt. The two players who have the best chance of holding the keys to the future would be sidelined, forcing Byron Scott to start 6-foot-9-inch Omri Casspi, a player who was not even a part of the rotation when the 2012-13 season tipped off.
The result was a 10-point loss for the Wine and Gold, but it was a game where the final score was not indicative of what transpired. Without their two leading scoring options, the Cavaliers shot just 33 percent for the entire contest; a 25 percent conversion rate in the first quarter quickly put the team down by 13 after just 12 minutes of play. Even Anderson Varejao, Cleveland's All-Star Guy, started things off by shooting 1-for-5 from the floor. Even when the defense would lock the Pistons down in the fourth quarter, limiting them to 22 percent shooting, the most the Cavs could muster were six field goals of their own.
It was just that kind of night. It will be that kind of stretch.
The Cavaliers, without Irving, have been relatively lucky. Certainly, the wins are not piling up in the point guard's absence, but what could have spiraled into a situation deemed not rectifiable has actually provided a team that plays hard any given night. Fourth-quarter collapses against the Miami Heat and Memphis Grizzlies are nothing to be ashamed about. Beating the Atlanta Hawks on the road is that much better. Jeremy Pargo has been a huge surprise. Varejao hasn't skipped a beat despite missing his pick-and-roll dance partner. Tristan Thompson has even joined in on things, recording a double-double and blocking shots. But the safety net, Irving and his fourth quarter magic, is gone. One misstep can lead to Humpty Dumpty-like proportions, with Scott left to stare at the rubble, arms fully crossed.
"There is definitely an assessment period that has go on when you insert a new guy into the starting lineup," said Gibson following the loss. "I do not want to make any excuses. I just think we did not come out with the right focus and we did not play the way we needed to play in order to keep the game close and try to pull one out at the end."
Following the Cavaliers' start, it was Scott who had a few choice words for his team, questioning their attitude and desire in this short-handed situation. While the talent gap may not be as wide as the Cavs' record shows, this is a team that can ill afford to not play any given minute as if it was the last. Certainly, the team deserves some credit for not simply rolling over after falling down early, but the flat-line play that got them there deserves every ounce of ridicule.
Dion Waiters could be back sooner than later. Kyrie Irving is still two weeks away. When Byron Scott opted to keep three point guards on his roster, it was evident that he did not ever expect having to play a game — let alone several — without his consecutive lottery selections watching in street clothes. The depth at the guard spot will continue to be of wading pool proportions. The Cavaliers will have to continue to fight. The results will likely fall in the not-so-pretty column, but there is bound to be the occasional surprise.
Unfortunately, for at least the next couple of weeks, "surprise" may be all fans have to cling to.

Gold Coast 5.4 10.9 12.11 14.13 (97)
Collingwood 0.5 3.10 10.13 16.15 (111)
Goals: Gold Coast: Dixon 4 Matera 2 Stanley 2 Rischitelli 2 Hall Sumner Boston Shaw. Collingwood: Cloke 6 White 3 Clarke Sidebottom Maxwell Young Kennedy Pendlebury Swan.
Best: Gold Coast: O'Meara Stanley Dixon Rischitelli. Collingwood: Cloke Young Pendlebury Swan.
Venue: Metricon Stadium, Gold Coast.
Out on the wide open spaces of Metricon Stadium on a steamy Sunday afternoon, it seemed like some of the widest gaps were between the 18 Collingwood footballers running around and their designated Gold Coast opponents. It looked, for all intents and purposes, the definition of a practice match. Bruise-free footy, you might say.
So how seriously to take the contest? Magpie fans, in particular, will want to know. With a close to full-strength squad – including 11 premiership players and practically their entire starting midfield of Dane Swan, Scott Pendlebury, Luke Ball, Dayne Beams, Brent Macaffer and recruit Taylor Adams – the Pies were toast by half time.
Toasted, mind you, by a Suns side missing captain Gary Ablett (the result, apparently, of a cooking accident at home, where he burnt the top of his hand) and key back Rory Thompson.
This was the third competitive hit-out for Collingwood this year, and for that first half, they looked uncompetitive, even listless. It's getting a bit late to say they're just rusty.
The Magpies' embarrassment had nothing to do with the youthfulness, and one-time easybeat status of their opponents. These Suns are rising fast. They looked hungrier, quicker, more skilful, and they've clearly spent a lot of time in the gym. Jaeger O'Meara, in his second year, already looks like a midfielder in his prime.
The scary thing is, like most of his teammates, he's most likely a long way from his peak. Ditto players like David Swallow, now playing a battering-ram role in the midfield; Charlie Dixon, who was commanding up forward; and a significantly beefed-up Brandon Matera.
These players – along with a rejuvenated Michael Rischitelli and the gutsy Danny Stanley – tore Collingwood to shreds in the first half, establishing a 41-point lead at half-time. And the Pies were a fumbling, incoherent mess, particularly in their delivery up forward (a familiar complaint).
So what to make of that second half? The most obvious change was Travis Cloke, who found his radar and kicked six second-half goals after completely working over opponent Steven May. But someone had to get the ball to him first, and it started coming in faster and more cleanly than the Suns' defenders could handle.
Clinton Young, after a year dogged by hamstring issues, was a shining light for Collingwood, and the longer the match wore on, the more the influence of prime movers Swan and Pendlebury grew. But it should be noted, too, that Rischitelli and the dynamic Dion Prestia had come off, as did O'Meara in the last quarter.
Perhaps the most telling clue to what to make of this topsy-turvy game was the demeanour of the teams' respective coaches after it. Nathan Buckley was glum, all his attention focused on that dreadful first half and his team's struggle for consistency, both within and between games.
The Suns' Guy McKenna, by contrast, could barely contain his excitement. Of course, he has good reason to talk up his troops to the public ahead of the season. But like Buckley, all his attention was on that first half. It was, he declared, the best half of football he'd seen his team ever play.
A win, at this time of year, was of no object and no concern to either men. And that tells you more about the formline of these two teams heading into season 2014 than the scoreboard possibly can.

When trying to write a custom query that involves DMH_COMPILE_UNIT, we came up this question:
DMH_COMPILE_UNIT table has 2 different columns - (1) COMP_UNIT_ID (2) MEMBER_ID
Statement A:
Based on RAA online help, here is what I understand:
COMP_UNIT_ID is supposed to be a unique id for each compile unit; while MEMBER_ID would be the foriegn key reference to FILE_ID of DMH_FILE table.
Statement B:
After scanning inventory, I observe that, both COMP_UNIT_ID and MEMBER_ID are same for all components being scanned so far.
Question 1. Why do we have 2 seperate columns - when they seem to have the same value? (I'm guessing, these will differ in future versions, when RAA allows a single file to have multiple compilation units, is this correct?)
Question 2. In v 188.8.131.52, can these columns be used interchangeably in custom queries (in join \ where clauses)?

Re: DMH_COMPILE_UNIT table - COMP_UNIT_ID versus MEMBER_ID2012-11-09T14:32:00ZThis is the accepted answer. This is the accepted answer.COMP_UNIT_ID name of the main CSECT
MEMBER_ID name of the library member containing the compiling unit_id
When you create an executable you can name it different than the member id.
For example in COBOL I have source file in member name MEMFIL and I code in
I understand that member_id will be MEMFIL and COMP_UNIT_ID will be PROGNAM

Re: DMH_COMPILE_UNIT table - COMP_UNIT_ID versus MEMBER_ID2012-11-09T15:46:46ZThis is the accepted answer. This is the accepted answer.The PROGRAM (compile unit) assets primary key is COMP_UNIT_ID in the DMH_COMPILE_UNIT table. The FILE (member) assets primary key is FILE_ID in the DMH_FILE table. Prior to RAA v6, the FILE_ID column was named MEMBER_ID - explaining why some of the tables use FILE_ID and some (still) use MEMBER_ID.
The MEMBER_ID column in the DMH_COMPILE_UNIT table is (obviously) a foreign key to the DMH_FILE table - representing the program's main file.
The intent, as you suspect, is to eventually support multiple compile units per file.
Currently the value of the two ids are the same.
Because they are the same one could use them interchangeably, but I would strongly discourage doing that as your custom queries may not work as expected any future release that supports multiple compile units per file.

Hello All,
I have a problem in solve a simple curve problem. Here is the problem..
Two tangents intersect at a chainage of 1000 m, the deflection angle being 36°.The length of the long chord is 133.52 m and the chainage of T2 is 2065.61m. Find the Chainage of T1 and Radius of curve.
Now the point is that when I try to find T1 by this formula:
T1 = Total Chainage - Tangent Length.
Tangent Length found to be 70.2m and Radius = 216.04m , therefore
T1 = 1000 - 70.2 = 929.8m
But But when I try to verify my result using length of curve formula
length of curve = 135.47
So T1 = T2 - length of curve
T1 = 2065.61 - 135.4 = 1929.08 So the difference is about 1000m which is the total chainage. Some one told me that it has to do with dependency. Please anyone help me in solving this problem. May be my Radius is not correct. Some one please help me. Thank you in advance..

Are there any tutorials available for creating a four road intersection using the intersection tool in Civil 3D? Civil 3D intersection tool helps in creating a three road intersection, but it doesn't create curb return profiles for a four intersection. The curb return profiles are not automatically created with the intersection tool thereby giving errors.

Though the concepts of BIM or Model-Based Design are the same, it's true that Building Information Modelling (BIM) has its roots in architecture and there is an assumption that the benefits are applicable to architects and only relevant to building design and construction. Assuming that BIM is the future, then would the benefits provided by BIM technology be utilized for infrastructure design pojects using Civil 3D, 12d Model and Bentley InRoads?

|Wednesday April 17, 2002
Multi-Academy Award winner Catherine Martin is well and truly basking in the limelight.The very naughty pictures with some Oscar statuettes had been taken, the champagne corks popped, the parties conquered and the day after the night before multi-Academy Award winner Catherine Martin for that is her new extended name was enjoying a spot of late afternoon tea.
You could picture her reclining on a lounge in her ritzy Los Angeles hotel suite, pinky finger cocked as she sipped from a cup of Twinings, her assistant announcing callers and personal well-wishers. The new Queen of Hollywood, via Lindfield, Sydney.
"It was very overwhelming," Martin said in the same strident, confident voice that had boomed from the Kodak Theatre podium a few hours earlier. Her husband and professional partner Baz Luhrmann was nearby, as was fellow costume design award winner Angus Strathie, ensconced in an adjoining suite.
"It was just very funny and ... amusing. Everyone was delightful. It was so nice because everyone saw the awards as a validation of Moulin Rouge. It was a nice closure."
So five years of her life have ended, not with a full-stop but with two emphatic golden exclamation marks. Martin has the Oscars for costume design and art direction and Luhrmann, although overlooked as the film's director, has the satisfaction of knowing he and his close-knit team have produced an Academy Award-winning movie. He probably also has a decent case of laryngitis, courtesy of his non-stop pre-Oscar spruiking.
Now it's time to move on to new projects, first the New York premiere of Luhrmann's version of the classic opera La Boheme.
First seen in Sydney in 1990 and brought back in 1993 and 1996, Boheme is scheduled to premiere at the Broadway Theatre on December8, after some previews and a soft October opening in San Francisco. As in Sydney, the opera will be set in 1957 and sung in its original Italian. Martin is, naturally, doing the costumes and the set design. "It's based on the production we did in Sydney but completely restaged and with a brand new cast," she said. "We've started work on it but we're just having a little break before we really get stuck in."
Martin is looking at the coming months with a mixture of excitement and relief. "It's not so much whether it's film or theatre," she said of the next burst of creativity. "It's just a good way of letting go of a project that's been so much a part of our lives for fiveyears."
As well as Boheme, there are also plans to mount Broadway stage versions of both Romeo + Juliet and Moulin Rouge but as yet nothing new for the big screen. "Baz always has hundreds of ideas but I'm not sure if there's anything solid yet," she said.
As a double Oscar winner, and a previous nominee for her work on Romeo + Juliet, Martin has well and truly stepped out of the considerable shadow cast by her better-known other half. So much so that offers to work independently of Luhrmann have started flowing in and she revealed it was something she's interested in pursuing.
"I'm often asked whether I can work on other projects," she said. "But as a co-owner of Bazmark [the umbrella company under which Luhrmann and Martin release all their work] I have a vested interest in many other things apart from just the movie-making aspect.
"We've got the record business and the theatre business and at this point in time I'm completely consumed by that.
"But that may change, and I'm always interested in other film-makers offering me work."
That news may come as a surprise to those who view Martin and Luhrmann as a single, joined-at-the-hip entity. They've been working together since 1987, when Luhrmann, then a fairly recent graduate of the National Institute of Dramatic Art, went back to his old school to look for a designer for his production of the Felix Meagher opera Lake Lost. Martin, who had come to NIDA after studying visual arts at Sydney College of the Arts and pattern cutting at East Sydney Technical College, was suggested by her teacher Peter Cooke and she and Luhrmann have been an inspired partnership ever since.
Together they've worked on opera (Lake Lost, LaBoheme, A Midsummer Night's Dream), film (Strictly Ballroom, Romeo + Juliet, Moulin Rouge) and an album (Something For Everybody) while her other work for Bazmark has included Collette Dinnigan's 1998 autumn-winter show at Paris's Louvre and the designs for Fox Studios' ill-fated Back Lot.
Interestingly, it took many years for a professional relationship to morph into a personal one and it wasn't until making Romeo + Juliet in Mexico in 1995 that romance blossomed between these two creative geniuses. They married in January 1997 on a stage at the Sydney Opera House, Martin's trademark L'Amour neon sign glowing behind them.
But Martin has always stressed that although she and Luhrmann work in the same business, they inhabit different compartments of that business. She has also denied that she is his muse. "No, not really," she told The Sydney Morning Herald in late 1997. "I think Baz has a very private process of creation ... He uses lots of different people within the group to bounce different ideas off. I think I'd probably be one of the first people he would come to and say: 'Look, I've been thinking of this. What do you think?"'
It was obvious to anyone watching the Academy Awards last Monday that the pair share a strong, special type of bond. Martin dedicated both of her Oscars to Luhrmann and made it clear that without him, none of it would have happened. After winning her first Oscar she told him from the stage: "You come up with ideas that even I think are crazy. But you've taught me to live the dream. Thank you for letting me come on this journey. This is for you."
"He only knew very vaguely what sort of speeches I had prepared," Martin said. "He was very proud and a little teary-eyed afterwards." So what will become of the two new Golden Boys who have just joined the Luhrmann-Martin family?
"Well, I think I'll send them back to Australia with my parents," Martin said. "We have a room in our office where we put all the trophies and they'll probably end up there. But I haven't discussed it with my husband, he may decide they should stay with us in New York."
Sounds like a true partnership in every respect.

Onyx Boox i62HD, i62HD Firefly or just wait?

Join Date: Jun 2011

I'm in the same position as you are Ayla...
Should I buy the i62HD now, or should I wait for some reviews on the firefly before deciding? But at ereader-store.de the i62HD is sold at a 'Reduced price just for a short time', which can mean three things:
a) in a few weeks the price will go up once again, and there won't be much price difference between the 'regular' i62HD and the FireFly (which seems unlikely), and in that case the waiting has cost me money (if I decide for the regular i62HD)
b) the price is reduced now and will stay at the same reduced level once the FireFly is there.
c) the i62HD is almost out of stock, and the remainder is sold at a reduced price. And once the FireFly is there, it won't be sold anymore.
If c) is the case, and I want a 'regular' one, I shouldn't wait to decide...
Still, the FireFly is tempting... But I read somewhere, that although the illuminated eInk devices are frontlit, they still are more straining for the eyes, because the light still comes in your eyes... I don't know what to think about that... After all, we SEE because light comes into our eyes, even if the light is reflected on paper/eInk/whatever.
If I were you, I should just decide for the i62HD or the FireFly... Of course, you can wait for yet another version, but there will always been something to wait for, and whatever you buy, there will be something 'newer' soon...
(On the other hand, I completely understand the hesitation: some people seem to buy eReaders like someone else buys bread, but I'm one of the kind that tries to use a device for several years... And then it's important to be (almost) completely satisfied.
Not much of a help I fear... Just some musings...

text: By BRIAN WITTEANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) â¿¿ Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley on Thursday highlighted some initiatives he hopes will stimulate job growth by increasing training for positions in the highest demand and clearing some hurdles to employment for military families. The Democrat has put $2.5 million in his budget proposal to create a competitive grant process to help get people the skills for jobs that are in high demand. The initiative, called the Employment Advancement Now Initiative, would encourage regional training collaborations among businesses, nonprofits, colleges and local governments. It would focus on industries such as traditional and advanced manufacturing, cybersecurity and health care. "This is really an effort that is driven by employers who say they have jobs that are open, they need more employees with the skills to fill them and so this EARN bill will help more moms and dads get the skills they need to enter those better jobs," O'Malley said at a Senate hearing. The governor also is backing a measure to speed up the professional licensing process for military families who move to Maryland from other states. O'Malley said more than 20 states already expedite the licensing process for veterans to move. The unemployment rate is 8.8 percent for veterans, and for post-9/11 veterans it is 9.7 percent, O'Malley said. The measure would credit veterans for their military training and educational experience when they apply for occupational and professional licenses in the state. Veterans also would be able to get academic credit at state four-year colleges and community colleges for relevant military training and education. "This will lower the cost of earning a degree, will allow veterans to get their degrees quicker, and the more degrees our people have the better that is for our state and our economy," O'Malley said. Earlier in the day, the governor joined members of the Maryland Federal Facilities Advisory Board to release a plan with 25 actions Maryland could take to take encourage innovation and job creation and federal facilities. They include aligning state resources with federal priorities and promoting cybersecurity business.

More details of road closures for the summer's Grand Depart of the Tour de France in Craven have been released by North Yorkshire County Council.
Although it says final details will not be possible until closer to Tour weekend – July 5 and July 6 – it has released information to help people plan ahead.
All the latest about the anticipated timings of closures, traffic management, and diversion routes, will be presented on an "indicative" basis on the council's website which will be updated as and when more precise details become clear.
Exact timings will be dictated by factors such as the numbers of spectators and arrival times. "Having said that, we recognise that residents and businesses need to be able to plan as far ahead as possible," said Coun Gareth Dadd, executive member for highways.
"For this reason we are providing indicative road closure timings. We will make them as accurate as possible using all the information available to us.
"However, it should be borne in mind that they are intended as a guide, and are subject to change."
The website will also provide information for spectators, covering topics such as where to watch the race, the ease of access for different sites, and the location of car parks, campsites and events.
Skipton and Grassington have been named official spectator hubs for the race, which will come through Craven on two of the three stages of the Grand Depart, before it moves to France.
"Our aim is to ensure that the Grand Départ passes off smoothly for everyone – for the competitors, for the spectators, and for all other highways users," added Coun Dadd.
"This is a fantastic event, and the benefits to North Yorkshire will be enormous.
"We want to do all we can to make sure that it is a huge success – and that as far as possible, disruption for everyone who needs to use our roads on the weekend and the days either side of the event is kept to a minimum."

New Rochelle, NY, September 3, 2013—A new recombinant antibody can detect and isolate mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), a nonembryonic source of stem cells with promising applications in tissue engineering, blood stem cell transplantation, and treatments for immune-mediated disorders. The antibody recognizes an i blood group antigen present on MSCs in umbilical cord blood, as described in a study published in BioResearch Open Access, a peer-reviewed journal from Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., publishers. The article is available free on the BioResearch Open Access website.Tia Hirvonen and coauthors from the Finnish Red Cross Blood Service, Glykos Finland Ltd., and Biova Ltd. (Helsinki), and VTT Technical Research Center of Finland (Espoo), identified a blood donor with high levels of antibody to the i blood group antigen. No antibodies recognizing this antigen are commercially available at present. In the article "Production of a Recombinant Antibody Specific for i Blood Group Antigen, a Mesenchymal Stem Cell Marker," the authors explain that the i antigen can serve as a marker to detect and isolate MSCs in umbilical cord blood (UCB). They describe the use of antibody phage display technology to produce a recombinant anti-i antibody that recognizes i antigen on the surface of UCB-MSCs as well as on red blood cells. "The authors have used antibody phage display technology to generate an anti-i antibody," says BioResearch Open Access Editor Jane Taylor, PhD, MRC Centre for Regenerative Medicine, University of Edinburgh, Scotland. "The advantage of this technique is that antibodies against poorly immunogenic molecules can be generated, as an immunization strategy is not required. The availability of an anti-i antibody has the potential to improve the isolation efficiency of MSCs from umbilical cord blood samples."About the JournalBioResearch Open Access is a bimonthly peer-reviewed open access journal led by Editor-in-Chief Robert Lanza, MD, Chief Scientific Officer, Advanced Cell Technology, Inc. and Editor Jane Taylor, PhD.

O Canada!
Canada uses five-run rally in the fifth to beat Saudi Arabia by a score of 7-5
By Dan Ryan
In a battle of the beatens, something had to give.
Canada, represented by White Rock, British Colombia, and MEA, represented by Dhahran, Saudi Arabia, both came into Tuesday afternoon's game sitting at 0-2. But both teams fought with passion, despite having no chance of advancing to the next round.
After Saudi Arabia had built a 5-2 lead going into the bottom of the fifth inning, Canada decided enough was enough, and went on score five times to erase the deficit and win 7-5 in front of 8,100 at Howard J. Lamade Stadium.
Jake Hagan came to the plate and started the rally with a solo shot to make the score 5-3.
"I haven't hit many (home runs) this year," Hagan said. "Once I hit it, I didn't know it was gone, so I ran as hard as I could. But it hit the fence and went over. I couldn't be happier."
Eric Watkins then made it a one-run game with a solo shot of his own on the very next at-bat.
A single and two walks later, Taylor Bedwell chopped one back to Bryce Jackson on the mound. Jackson turned to throw to second, only to find no one covering the bag. By the time he turned back around, Colton Killoran scored from third for the tying run and Bedwell had reached first safely.
Jackson proceeded to walk Conner Kenwood to push across the go-ahead run. A wild pitch then made it 7-5.
"Hats off to them," Canada's manager Jay Bouchey said. "We would have liked to put the game away a little earlier, but it was still a good feeling for them."
This was not unfamiliar territory for Canada as they have fought back in each game they played just to make it to Williamsport. Canada's Killoran explained how his team earned their resilient reputation.
"In the provincial round, we had three close games that we were losing," he said. "We came back and won in the late innings in all of them. We call it 'the White Rock come back."
Bouchey thinks the team's resiliency is due to the players' talent of building friendships, even with opposing players.
"Camaraderie is what it is about," Bouchey said. "All of them are great friends. Even when they got their banner for winning provincials, they brought in all the teams for the picture."
Unfortunately, Canada's victory means that Saudi Arabia will leave Williamsport winless. Saudi manager James Durley was frustrated.
"We don't see this type of competition in Saudi Arabia," Durley said. "Coming to the States and playing these types of teams, you want to win (at least one) game. So it is disappointing. We thought we had a pretty good group."
Although they did not win any games, the MEA champs can take a lot from their experience in South Williamsport.
"I talked to (the players) about the element of toughness," Durley said. "There are many things in life where you need to be tough whether it is sports, married life or even adversity. I want them to grow up and be tough men."

Receive FREE Training Compensation Courtesy of the Great State of Wyoming!
At the conclusion of one of our recent training courses, an attendee fromWyomingapproached the professor with a form to sign. It was a Wyoming Workforce Development Training Fund form. The attendee informed the professor that the state ofWyomingwould reimburse his training fees, up to $2,000, through a grant from the Wyoming Department of Workforce Services. Essentially, the attendee was receiving free training by gaining pre-approval of the course and then providing documentation of the training fees. That seemed simple enough.
So if the state ofWyomingwas providing free training fees, why wasn't everyone taking advantage of it? Did I mention FREE training? Perhaps employees didn't know this grant was available. Or maybe businesses weren't informing their employees of this opportunity. Whatever the case, the Workforce Development Training Fund was established to help build a workforce of competitive and competentWyomingworkers. Training compensation is available to employees with an existing position at work who require a skill upgrade or new employees who require training in their area of work.
If you are an employed worker in the state ofWyomingthis grant is for you! Below is a list of the requirements to become approved for a training grant. See if you qualify or your employer qualifies.
- A business entity that is registered with the Wyoming Secretary of State to conduct business inWyoming.
- The business entity must be in good standing with the Wyoming Unemployment Insurance program, Wyoming Workers Compensation program, Wyoming Secretary of State's office, and the Workforce Development Training Fund.
- Training will either correct an employee's skill deficiency or upgrade an employee's current skill level.
- There must be a direct relationship between the training and the trainee's occupation or craft.
- The training is not normally provided by the business entity.
- The business entity will not substitute funds normally provided for training or funds obtained from another source with Business Training Grant funds.
- There is a need for the skill upgrade provided by the training for the business entity to remain competitive in the industry or economy.
- The skill upgrade provided by the training will enhance the business entity's productivity or profitability, reduce employee turnover, or enhance employee wages.
Grants of up to $2,000 are renewable each fiscal year for qualified employees or businesses. You can find out more at http://soswy.state.wy.us/Rules/RULES/5535.pdf.
ASPE's training courses have previous success of gaining grant approval. If you are a marketer and curious about the ins-and-outs of search engine optimization our SEO Boot Camp can help you become a SEO master. See all of our course offerings at http://www.aspe-roi.com, which include,
- Google Tools & Skills
- Social Media
- Analytics & Metrics

Wyomingisn't the only state to establish training grants for employees and employers. These five states also offer training compensation with similar requirements and value of compensation.

SAN DIEGO, March 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Vical Incorporated announced today the issuance of two Canadian patents on the company's core technology, which involves direct administration of polynucleotide genetic material such as DNA or RNA. Canadian patents No. 2,425,745 and No. 2,049,287 cover such administration with and without cationic lipids, respectively. Covered uses of the technology include vaccines, therapeutics, and research and development applications.
Vical holds issued U.S. and foreign patents concerning this core technology and related enhancements, applications, and manufacturing processes. A number of vaccine and therapeutic applications of the technology are currently under development by Vical and its collaborative partners, including Merck & Co., Inc., Sanofi-Aventis Group, Merial Ltd. (a joint venture between Merck and Sanofi-Aventis), Corautus Genetics Inc., Aqua Health Ltd. (an affiliate of Novartis Animal Health Inc.), and the U.S. National Institutes of Health.
Vijay B. Samant, President and Chief Executive Officer of Vical, said, "We are pleased to establish broad intellectual property coverage in Canada comparable to our core technology coverage in the United States. These Canadian patents extend our existing and expanding patent estate in another key international region and further validate Vical's global leadership position in non-viral gene delivery."
The key discovery leading to the company's patented core technology was that living tissues can take up polynucleotide genetic material directly, without the use of viral components, and subsequently express the proteins encoded by the genetic material for periods ranging from weeks to more than a year. Application of this technology typically involves designing and constructing closed loops of DNA called plasmids, or pDNAs. These pDNAs contain a DNA segment encoding the protein of interest, as well as short segments of DNA that control protein expression. Plasmids can be manufactured using uniform methods of fermentation and processing. This could result in faster development times than technologies that require development of product-specific manufacturing processes.
Since the initial discovery of the core DNA delivery technology, Vical researchers have improved the plasmid design to provide increases in efficiency of gene expression and immunogenicity. In addition, the company is developing other formulation and delivery technologies to enhance DNA expression or increase the immune response in DNA vaccine applications. Vical owns broad rights in the United States and in other key markets to certain non-viral polynucleotide delivery technologies through its patents and licenses.
Vical's gene-based approach may offer safer and more cost-effective alternatives for the prevention or treatment of cancer, infectious diseases and other diseases.
About Vical
Vical researches and develops biopharmaceutical products based on its patented DNA delivery technologies for the prevention and treatment of serious or life-threatening diseases. Potential applications of the company's DNA delivery technology include DNA vaccines for infectious diseases or cancer, in which the expressed protein is an immunogen; cancer immunotherapeutics, in which the expressed protein is an immune system stimulant; and cardiovascular therapies, in which the expressed protein is an angiogenic growth factor. The company has retained all rights to its internally developed product candidates. In addition, the company collaborates with major pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies that give it access to complementary technologies or greater resources. These strategic partnerships provide the company with mutually beneficial opportunities to expand its product pipeline and serve significant unmet medical needs. Additional information on Vical is available at http://www.vical.com/.
This press release contains forward-looking statements subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Forward-looking statements include statements about Vical's technology and its current and potential applications, the scope of coverage of and potential applications for the company's issued and pending patents, as well as the company's focus, collaborative partners, and product candidates. Risks and uncertainties include whether the company's technology will be successfully applied, whether the company's issued patents (including the patents discussed in this release) will be challenged and whether such challenges will have an adverse effect on the scope of the patents, whether the company will be successful in expanding its intellectual property position in key international regions or in the United States, whether the company will enforce its issued patents or will be successful in any enforcement efforts, whether the company will successfully prosecute additional patent applications and whether such applications will lead to the issuance of additional patents, whether Vical or its collaborative partners will seek or gain approval to market any product candidates, whether Vical or its collaborative partners will succeed in marketing any product candidates, and additional risks set forth in the company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These forward-looking statements represent the company's judgment as of the date of this release. The company disclaims, however, any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements.

Key Lime Pie? What Key Lime Pie?
Google sent a shock through the Android community this morning when it announced the next version of Android will be Android 4.4, KitKat. That's a big twist from the long-standing expectation that this fall's release would be numbered 5.0 and called Key Lime Pie.
So what gives? According to the BBC, the decision to go with KitKat actually happened late last year and has been kept under wraps, so to speak, ever since. Google apparently reached an agreement with Nestle to use the name -- one that's "not a money-changing-hands kind of deal," as a Google exec explains it.
(As for the number, 5.0 was never anything more than speculation. Google never discusses Android version numbers during its software development phase.)
Given this new turn, I thought it'd be a good idea to break down everything we know about the upcoming new Android KitKat release. I've painstakingly compiled an exhaustive list of every detail available about the software. No rumors or unconfirmed buzz here, folks -- just pure, hard fact. Every last oozing drop of it.
So grab your finest spectacles and get your noggin ready: Here is everything we actually know about Android 4.4 KitKat:
1. It will be numbered 4.4 and called Android KitKat.
Whew -- did you get all that?
All snarkery aside, the point is this: Google didn't actually tell us much of anything today. We got a name and a number -- and that's it. We don't even know vaguely when the thing will be released.
(Full disclosure: I did have a brief hands-on with KitKat this afternoon. I can tell you that it's smooth and buttery, a bit fragmented, and somewhat lacking in stamina. But I wouldn't put too much stock in those findings.)
Much ado about nothing, right? Not exactly. Here's the real story today: Without revealing anything of actual substance, Google managed to generate loads of excitement and steal the spotlight away from Apple's iPhone event announcement.
That, my friends, is a well-played move. A move that wouldn't have been possible just a few short years ago, when Android was a market-minority afterthought and the utterance of "new iPhone" was enough to drown out all other tech news for days. And if today's tease is any indication, this is just the beginning of an intense battle for your attention -- and your buying dollars.
Make no mistake about it, gang: The next couple of months promise to be anything but dull here in the mobile arena. It's on, baby. Let the games begin.

Neighborhood Highlights
Central Vine Street Business District and Main Street Business District
Vine Street and Main Street are two business corridors in Over-the-Rhine. Marked by beautiful two- to five-story townhouses built by the German immigrants in the 1800s, today Vine Street is known nationally as a mecca of local shops, innovative restaurants, eclectic bars, and start-up business incubators. Ensemble Theatre anchors the business corridor on Vine just to the south of Twelfth. Soon the streetcar will connect Main, Vine and Findlay Market businesses to the riverfront; and Red Bike bike share is currently up and running with multiple bike stations located throughout downtown, Over-the-Rhine and Uptown.
Main Street is a main thoroughfare of Over-the-Rhine and was once known as a cluster for tech startups during the 90s. Today, the street is populated with independent galleries, unique fashion boutiques, artisanal coffee shops, pubs, and neighborhood block parties such as Second Sunday on Main, Final Friday gallery hop, and Bockfest, which celebrates OTR's history of beer brewing.

Washington Park
In July 2012, Washington Park reopened after an extensive renovation, expanding the Park from 6 to 8 acres. The expansion also allowed such additional features as a plaza, a civic green and performance stage, a 450-space underground parking garage, a dog park, a children's playground, water features and interactive fountains, and extensive landscaping. One of the most important elements of the renovated Park is the year-round free programming, which brings thousands of people throughout the week to enjoy and explore OTR.
Ziegler Park
Ziegler Park is a 4.5-acre greenspace located along Sycamore Street, shared between the neighborhoods of Over-the-Rhine and Pendleton. The park is a city-owned space that recently underwent a transformative renovation and expansion. Ziegler Park features a new pool, upgraded basketball courts, a children's playground, a game grove, great lawn, and more! A deep-water pool offers opportunities for swim lessons and teams of children recruited from the neighborhood.
Findlay Market
Findlay Market is Ohio's oldest continuously operated public market and one of Cincinnati's most cherished institutions. The Market is located just two blocks north of Washington Park in Over-the-Rhine. Open Tuesday through Sunday, Findlay Market is home year-around to about two dozen indoor merchants selling meat, fish, poultry, produce, flowers, cheese, deli, and ethnic foods. On Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays from April to November the Market also hosts a thriving farmers market, dozens of outdoor vendors, numerous street performers, and lots of special events. Findlay Market is open year-round.
Coming soon! The Cincinnati Brewing Heritage Trail
Currently in the planning stages, the Cincinnati Brewing Heritage Trail will be a 2-mile trail that connects 12 remaining brewery structures built pre-Prohibition in the north part of the neighborhood. An important part of Cincinnati's rich history in beer crafting, one of the original breweries is active again, namely Christian Moerlein. The trail is being developed by the Brewery District Community Urban Redevelopment Corp., which offers seasonal tours of the historic structures, including long-abandoned lager cellars and tunnels 30 – 40 feet below ground that were built during the Prohibition era.

New episodes of Halo 4's popular "Spartan Ops" mode were released today in the Xbox Live Marketplace. While they do need to be downloaded in order to be played, the download itself is free. The download consists of the second half of Season 1, giving players five new episodes that will be unlocked on a weekly basis starting with Episode 6 today.
When 343 Industries first announced Spartan Ops, they noted that they wanted it to become like a television show. They wanted their fans to become invested in the story and come back for the new episodes every week. Over the Holidays, they went to work on the second half of Spartan Ops Season 1. They took a lot of the community feedback and put it into the episodes to give fans a better experience in the new chapters; this worked in a big way for them.
The thing you have to remember about this mode is that it is essentially a re-imagining of Firefight mode. When Spartan Ops was released, a lot of fans were upset that there wasn't enough story, so 343 fixed that. A lot of fans also expressed the fact that they didn't feel connected to Crimson, so 343 addressed that issue as well. And if their fans didn't pile on enough of a workload with those, they also wanted new locations. All of the hard work that they boys behind Halo 4 have put into the second half of Spartan Ops has really taken the mode above and beyond what anyone ever thought it would become, and with the help of much of their campaign team, the new chapters really feel like part of a second campaign.
Granted, at least one of the new maps is taken directly from the original campaign, while another is simply a multiplayer map. Still, the work that has been put into the new missions more than makes up for that as we are also given maps that we've never seen parts of before, and we've already mentioned the improved story telling that was put into the episodes. If you were a fan of Spartan Ops before, you're going to love it even more now. If you were skeptical of the mode after first trying it out, you may want to look at it again, as it is sure not to disappoint a second time.

OSAKA — Forget the phrase "Excuse me." Here in Osaka, nobody's going to excuse you, much less give you a second thought. Besides, if you've been raised with, say, English manners, you'd have to say "Excuse me" a million times a day.
Don't expect drivers to give you the right of way at a crosswalk or anywhere else. Even when the road is congested, traffic is moving at a snail's pace and you're already three steps into the zebra stripes, an Osaka driver will just swerve around you as if you were simply another obstacle in his way.
Even on the sidewalk, you can't afford to let your guard down. Bicycles whisk past on both sides, from both directions, at a frantic pace, either with no warning at all or signaled by a continuous, impatient ringing of the bike bell.
If one of these bikers causes damage to your bag, consider yourself lucky. If you're careless enough to break your beeline on the pavement without first checking for two-wheeled traffic, you might end up in need of a few stitches yourself.
Everybody knows the stereotype. Osakans come first and pull no punches — no apologies. But not everybody has stopped to wonder why. Koichi Otani, professor emeritus of the faculty of humanities at Tezukayama Gakuin University, has devoted his career to exploring this question. So what can he tell us?
Since the Tokugawa Period, Osaka has been a city of merchants, and as such, says Otani, it has fostered a society of competition. The faster Osakans move, the sooner they get to where they're going. The less mind they pay to others, the more likely they are to win out over them in competition.
Even after the most successful companies began moving to Tokyo, Otani says, Osaka's competitive spirit did not ease but became even more fierce, reflecting the increased rivalry among the small and medium-size companies left behind.
"Yes, Osakans are greedy and mean if you speak ill of them," says Otani, 77, who founded an Osaka studies course at the university and taught it from 1988 until last March. "But that's what is required to be successful in business."
Today's Osakans have inherited their merchant forebears' business mind-set and developed it into a whole paradigm of social interaction.
"What comes first for Osaka people is whether or not something is profitable," Otani says, "unlike for Tokyo people, who tend to take morals into consideration.
"For example, the 20th of every month is designated 'No My Car Day' by the Osaka Prefectural Government. On this day, drivers are asked to [leave their private cars at home] and use public transportation to ease the city's traffic. However, a typical Osakan would think, 'Well, it's No My Car Day today, there may be less traffic, so I should take advantage of it and drive today.'
"It turns out that more people drive their cars [on No My Car Day than nondesignated days], making traffic even worse."
But don't expect anyone on those congested roads to be cowering in shame — if anything, they might be complaining all the louder. According to Otani, Osakans are Japan's ultimate individualists and rationalists: The reason they can be so loud and rude is that they don't care how others perceive them.
Unlike many people who hide behind their tatemae social mask, Osakans wear their honne inner selves on their sleeves. And unlike their more "sophisticated" counterparts in the nation's capital who reign in their feelings for the sake of others, Osakans can only — and can't help but — express their "genuine emotions," says Otani. By means of example, he had this story to share:
"When the Hanshin Tigers beat the Yakult Swallows at Tokyo's Jingu Stadium to clinch the 1985 Central League pennant, home-team supporters celebrated the Tigers' victory with a banner that said 'Congratulations — but the Swallows will take next season.'
"When the Swallows won the league title at the Tigers' Koshien Stadium in 1992, Hanshin fans yelled at the visiting team, 'Bastards, get lost!' "

I was looking at the GitHub and noticed that line two of your strategy section mentioned the following:
"2- Keep a local database for offline use as well as faster browsing."
This is awesome and will most likely be a HUGE game changer for this remote.
One of the biggest things I would like to see would be able to use the google search button (or soft button) to filter Movies and Music when browsing on my phone. Will this be possible?
Would like a remote method for quickly filtering the on-screen movies and music as well but who knows.

I am confused over the planned features - will it be possible to just browse the media library and not play anything (with xbmc turned off.) Sometimes it would just be really nice to view what I have in my library when I'm out and about, and naturally my box at home is off at those times.
Just today I was talking to some friends about this box collection of old movies I had added and wondered if there was anything they would like to watch. It would have been ace to browse a cached copy of the library then and there, in the app. As it where I had to ftp to my server and view the cluttered mess of folders I had made.
Offline cached library mode would be super sweet.

The email account name firstname.lastname@example.com is on auction website eBay with a highest bid of $5 (GBP2.90), with eight days left to run
Fame makes money. That's true you know. Just see how famous pop singer Britney Spears and husband Kevin Federline make use their popularity to get more money. The couple sells the email account name firstname.lastname@example.com on auction website eBay with a highest bid of $5 (GBP2.90), with eight days left to run.
For Spears fanatics buying the email account is a must. "This would make the ideal gift for the truly dedicated Britney Spears fan. It is something to be treasured for a lifetime. Serious bidders only, please!" says the description of the "stuff" posted on eBay.
What's more, Spears, who soon as giving birth to Preston declared that she wants her newborn son to have a normal childhood, also announced that she contacted toy makers Mattel to create dolls with her, Federline and baby Preston for her fans. Also the singer hopes to have her mom Lynne Spears, dad Jamie Spears, older brother Bryan Spears, younger sister Jamie Lynn Spears, her tiny dogs, Bit Bit, Lucky and Lacy, to be added to the collection.
According to a source, 'There is already a Britney Spears Barbie doll but it has proved so popular, there's talk of producing an entire Britney Spears family. They are bound to be huge in the States."

Sarah Jessica Parker's Surrogate May Be A Tattooed Bisexual Who Wears Spiked Collar Necklaces
When Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick announced they were having twins through a surrogate, they kept the woman who's carrying their baby's identity secret. But rumors are swirling that it's a 26-year-old "bisexual, tattooed rocker" who is divorced, lives in Ohio, and has already been a surrogate once before, that time for a gay couple. Star reports Michelle Ross works in a kennel and likes wearing "five-inch black spike heels which lace up the front." If it's true that Ross is the surrogate, you can bet she's cleaned up her ways, because SJP and Broderick's children are supposed to be born in July. No official numbers on how much the surrogate is making; however, Grazia claims she's getting around $150,000 in gifts. [Star, Scandalist, Times of India]

Jack starts to have suspicions about his son-in-law Greg's capability of becoming the family's patriarch after Greg takes a job as a drug representative.
A long awaited sequel for "Meet the Fockers", "Little Fockers", has been previewed in a teaser trailer. It opens with Byrnes couple who gives a surprise visit to the Fockers at Christmas holiday. There, the tension between Jack and his son-in-law Greg are started. The teaser which is debuted by Apple also sees Jessica Alba as an attractive pharmaceutical rep who offers a business deal to Greg.
After marrying Pam, Greg now has five-year old twins. When the cash-strapped dad takes a job moonlighting for a drug company, however, Jack's suspicions about his favorite male nurse come roaring back. Now, Greg must prove to the skeptical Jack that he's fully capable as the man of the house.
Ben Stiller and Teri Polo still portray Greg and Pam Fockers, while Robert De Niro and Blythe Danner return as Jack and Dina Byrnes. Owen Wilson and Harvey Keitel additionally join the cast ensemble. This Paul Weitz-directed comedy will come in theaters across the U.S. on December 22, after its original July 30 slot is given to "The Adjustment Bureau" by Universal Pictures.

Exclusive: What Korn Means to Munky, Head, Fieldy, and Ray
Fri, 10 May 2013 11:05:39
Korn Photos
Korn Videos
"We haven't talked like this in years," Fieldy smiled at one point during our exclusive first interview with Korn about the new album.
Fieldy, Munky, Head, and Ray Luzier all gathered together at the band's rehearsal space for this incredible first talk with ARTISTdirect.com editor in chief Rick Florino about the new record, which Head dubs, "their best ever", the reunion, impending tour and so much more.
There was a moment that really struck everybody, and it happens to be one of our favorites. We wanted to highlight that here. You can read the rest of this magnificent interview here though.
Read On Below!
Photo: Daniel Quinones
What does Korn mean to you in 2013?
Head: That's a deep question.
Munky: It is.
Head: To me, Korn symbolizes the path of life. We came out. Jonathan dealt with child abuse. We dealt with rage. We dealt with all of this crap. We got through that. We're still going through life's ups and downs, but we got to a place of maturity where we're trying to be better people, but we're still twisted and messed up in some ways. It's a full circle of that life experience put into music. I swear. That's it. I feel good about this album. I don't want to say it's more positive, but it has some quality. We're trying to be better people, and you can feel it. Even if he's singing about something negative and crazy, there's this thing…
Fieldy: It's like country music. They trick you. He's singing something negative, but it doesn't sound it [Laughs]. I'm just kidding.
Head: If you think of the Korn records, all of our emotions were poured into the music. What we dealt with every year was filtered through each album. Now, everything good that's happening is in this album. To me, that's what it means. We're pouring out our lives together in unison all on this long two-decade journey.
Fieldy: Korn is an outlet. I grew up riding dirt bikes. When I get up on stage, it's like a dirt bike to me. You get this adrenaline through you like you're riding a dirt bike and jumping. I don't ride dirt bikes anymore because I hurt my arm and I got scared [Laughs].
Head: That's because you ran over Jonathan. It's karma!
Fieldy: When we get together on stage, even if we're just standing there, you can feel it coming through us. It's like I'm going to ride. Instead of loading up a bunch of dirt bikes, I load up here and go ride.
Ray: Korn is bigger than all of us. I've been in a hundred bands in L.A. It's cool because you're in a band where the name is so powerful. When we get together, there's this thing. It's untouchable. None of us can do that individually. It takes a force. It's bigger than all of us. I'm still a fan from way back. Being a part of this legacy is huge for me. It's all about music. To be able to do this for a living and be brothers is everything.
Munky: I love the adrenaline. With where we are now, it's like the light at the end of the tunnel.
Head: Yeah! I like that.
Munky: It's simple. We get to have our day in the sun because we've been in the shadows for so long in so many dark places.
Head: It was huge when Follow the Leader came out, but we were in a dark place. Record sales don't even matter. We're talking about life. You're getting paychecks, crazy houses, and cars, but there's a cloud over you because of life. I love how James put it. It's the light at the end of the tunnel.
You can finally enjoy it.
Munky: I totally enjoy it.
Head: I'm excited. This is it! I used to dread going on tour and playing the sets. I was miserable. I hated it towards the end. I did it every year for so long. To actually love everything, I'm so thankful.

(Reuters) - The Los Angeles Dodgers opened their Major League Baseball season with a 5-3 win over the San Diego Padres on Thursday despite flu-ridden pitcher Clayton Kershaw leaving the game after just three innings.
Kershaw, battling stomach flu, retired the first eight batters he faced before escaping a bases-loaded jam in the third inning. The left-hander, who had a 21-5 record last season and won the National League's Cy Young award for the top pitcher, struck out three and walked one while giving up two hits.

Karachi, June 10 (ANI): Amid several controversies, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has been put to test again as women cricketers have complained over officials demanding physical relations.
The women players have lodged complaints that the officials have been constantly harassing them and presenting an 'unprofessional and disrespectful attitude', the Express Tribune reports.
According to the report, the PCB has gathered a three-member inquiry team to probe into the allegations by the women players that will meet all the players individually as part of its investigation.
The PCB committee has also asked for the career records of all the women players who have made the accusations, which the report said will in turn help clarify whether or not the women cricketers were good performers but were not considered by the officials for matches due to their refusal.
The report said that the PCB 's move came after after a group of women cricketers of the regional teams have revealed that some male officials of the Multan Cricket Club (MCC) demanded 'friendship and physical relations' and threatened not to consider them for selection if they refuse, irrespective of their performances.
While Maleeha Shafiq said that the MCC would 'destroy a girl's career', Kiran Khan complained that MCC President Begum Shami Sultan used to demand money from players.
However, Sultan has dismissed the allegations and termed them 'baseless', adding that she is willing to present all the necessary facts before the inquiry committee.
Meanwhile, the PCB has asked all the five women players to appear on June 12 at its regional head office in Lahore, the report added. (ANI)

Pre-Law Association Hosts Fourth Annual Witt Law Day April 20
April 13, 2010
Filed in Events, Featured Events, Uncategorized
Springfield, Ohio – For the fourth straight year, Wittenberg's Pre-Law Association is hosting a spring event that focuses on the free exchange of ideas that epitomizes a liberal arts education.
Themed "Welcome to the Wonderful World of Intellectual Property Law," Witt Law Day 2010 is scheduled for Tuesday, April 20. This year's event features a presentation by Ken Germain, distinguished professorial practitioner in residence at the University of Dayton School of Law at 7 p.m. in Room 201 of the Joseph C. Shouvlin Center for Lifelong Learning.
The keynote speech will follow the Witt Law Day dinner at 5 p.m. in the Bayley Alumni House.
"We are very excited that Professor Germain is joining us for Witt Law Day this year to share his expertise," said Assistant Professor of Political Science Heather Wright, who serves as the Pre-Law Association's adviser and the university's Pre-Law Adviser. "If my conversations with him are any indication, this stands to be an invigorating experience for all in attendance."
Germain is an intellectual property lawyer who focuses on trademarks and unfair competition. He was retained as the winning side's legal expert in the famed TrafFix case decided by the United States Supreme Court in 2001, and he also serves as counsel at Wood Herron & Evans LLP in Cincinnati.
Organizers of Witt Law Day 2010 are Pre-Law Association executive board members Sara Wheeler, class of 2010 from Bucyrus, Ohio, president; Brittany Cravens, class of 2010 from Waterville, Ohio, vice president; and Kelli Hayes, class of 2010 from Dublin, Ohio, treasurer.
The Pre-Law Association was created to provide students interested in attending law school or pursuing a career in law with resources to help them succeed. In addition to Witt Law Day, the organization hosts practice LSAT sessions with peers, workshops to help with applications, community service projects, a film series and law school visits, including a trip to the University of Toledo in 2007 to hear United States Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia speak.
All events are free and open to the public. For more information, contact Wright at (937) 327-7992 or via e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Michael Richardson Publishes Book
Associate professor Michael Richardsons book, Revolutionary Theater and the Classical Heritage, was recently released by Peter Lang Publishing. The book concerns the critical appropriation of the German literary heritage during the Weimar Republic by proletarian-revolutionary dramatists such as Bertolt Brecht, Friedrich Wolf, and Gustav von Wangenheim, and the legacy of their aesthetics in the German Democratic Republic (GDR).

This year's Mother's Day Breakfast Menus is a nice, easy breakfast to cook and present to mom for breakfast in bed or a lovely brunch. She'll be wowed at how special her breakfast looks. She'll think she woke up in a 5 star hotel! For the breakfast tart, we've cut some corners for you by using a pre-made pizza crust that is flaky, buttery and delicious instead of pastry sheets which are hard to handle and time-consuming to use. The simple, classic flavors of eggs, cheese and bacon will delight her palette.
Our fruit dish presents fresh fruit without a lot of cover-up like a heavy sweet dip. Instead, a light, naturally-sweet fruit glaze that sweetens the fruit without over-powering it is used. It's a refreshing side dish to her main course.
Then to top it all off, who doesn't like an Orange Julius? It's like a dreamsicle in a glass. So sweet and smooth. The perfect beverage to chase this perfect-for-Mom breakfast down with.
We decided to give you a sneak peek at part of this menu with our Orange Julius recipe from our Mother's Day Menu. Make sure you sign up for eMeals here to get the Mother's Day menu for free! Or, if you are already a member simply look for it on your member's page.

UNITED NATIONS, N.Y (Feb. 10)
Ambassador Yosef Tekoah, Israel's permanent representative to the UN, challenged yesterday the Syrian representative to the UN, Mr. George Tomeh, to produce evidence of his charge on Feb. 5 that Israel was mistreating Arab prisoners. In a letter to UN Secretary General U Thant, Mr. Tekoah stated that Mr. Tomeh's latest charge, like his one on Jan. 23, "does not produce a single shred of evidence" to confirm his contention. Mr. Tekoah stated that these charges were a smoke screen to draw attention away from "the farcical situation created by membership on the Security Council by a government which persists in its policy of violating Charter provisions, the cease-fire and the Security Council's resolution calling for an agreement on a just and lasting peace with Israel."
