Fatal crash on Okanagan Connector
NEAR PENTICTON–A 75-year-old man died in an accident on the Okanagan Connector Friday, closing the highway for several hours.
The accident happened at 3:45. Early indications are the westbound pickup the man was driving crashed into the rear of a westbound commercial vehicle going downhill.
An air ambulance was called to the scene and the man was flown to Kelowna General Hospital, but he later died of his injuries.
RCMP aren't releasing his identity, only saying he was a resident of a B.C. interior community.
The crash shut down Highway 97C about a kilometre and a half east of the Loon Lake exit with no detours available, leaving traffic backed up for kilometres.
The road has since been reopened.

When he was admitted to the psychiatric unit at Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic Hospital he was considered non-aggressive – but then something sent him on a stabbing spree in which five patients and a doctor were injured.
Police plan to charge the attacker with assault with intent to do grievous bodily harm.
The Junior Doctors Association of SA (JDSA) said the increase in assaults on junior doctors was its biggest concern.
The hospital's CEO Johanna More said the man was admitted on Saturday for observation and that he had slept most of that day.
That night, the 27-year-old patient allegedly stole a pair of suturing scissors from a trolley and hid them.
"Something triggered him, he got up and started stabbing (other patients)," said More.
The man allegedly stabbed five patients before an intern, who at the time was setting up a drip, intervened and was stabbed in the hand, said More.
The intern's wound was stitched up and she was sent home to recuperate. On Monday she was admitted to Netcare Milpark hospital for surgery so the wound could be sutured.
"It is only after this that we will know the extent of the injury," said More.
The other patients received superficial wounds that only required a few stitches.
More said that at the time there was no security in the unit, as the ward was considered to be low risk.
"We can't place security at every door," she said, adding that if the patient had exhibited signs of aggression he would have been placed in a separate ward, with a holding facility where he would have been held for 72 hours.
"He would have been treated differently, we would have sedated him," More said.
The attacker has since been sent to Sterkfontein Psychiatric Hospital and those who were attacked have been given counselling.
Dr Mathabo Hlahlane of the JDSA said the association was concerned about the attack.
"In previous years a junior female doctor was raped by an unknown assailant. Last year a junior doctor was stabbed in Mpumalanga and two doctors were hijacked outside a hospital in Pretoria … Our concern is that these cases of assault are on the increase. We work very odd hours and sometimes we work 36 hours. We have to walk around dark passages and often the premises in hospitals aren't safe," said Hlahlane.
She said security measures needed to be beefed up as sometimes people coming into the hospitals weren't properly searched for dangerous objects.
Jack Bloom, the DA Gauteng's spokesman on Health, concurred that security at Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic Hospital was a problem.
"Patients and staff don't feel safe at Bara. We get people approaching us about it all the time and they are not happy," he said, adding that R20 million is spent on security at the hospital annually.
Bloom questioned whether correct procedures had been followed. "They shouldn't have anything around that could be used as a weapon. There are just so many unanswered questions," he said.
Police are planning to question the intern about the incident.
Other recent incidents:
* June 2011: Senzosenkosi Mkhize, 27, a junior doctor at Middelburg Hospital was stabbed in the chest by a patient. A security guard who tried to stop the patient from fleeing was stabbed in the hand.
* August 2007: A Wits medical student was raped when she walked from the blood bank while running errands at Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic Hospital.

FRANKFURT (Jul. 29)
Joint Distribution Committee has completed the removal to Frankfurt of its German central offices, which had been maintained at Munich ever since 1945.
The move is evidence of the gradual shift of the Jewish center of gravity in Germany away from Bavaria, where most DP camps were located in the period following the war. Frankfurt will also be the seat of the Central Welfare Agency of the Jews in Germany, upon which is devolving much of the direct relief and assistance hitherto rendered in German cities by the JDC.
A. regional JDC office will remain in Munich, however, to serve Bavaria as a whole and, more particularly, Foehrenwald, the last remaining Jewish DP camp on German soil.

Jaromir Jagr is in the longest postseason scoring drought of his career. The Bruins forward hasn't scored in the last 17 postseason games, which dates all the way back to his time with the Flyers.
Despite not scoring in eight playoff games so far with the Bruins, Jagr is still finding a way to impact the score sheet. Jagr has had four assists this postseason, and head coach Claude Julien said Jagr has been a good addition to the team.

Best thing I ever did. Surgeon did good job, I recovered fine after two weeks on my back, and life's been better physically ever since. It also kept my breasts perkier so 25 years later, my breasts are in better condition than many women, if not most.
Even better techniques for this surgery are available today than they were back then.

Hawker Beechcraft announced only yesterday that it received FAA and EASA type certification for the latest King Air variant more than a month ago. Equipped with a new passenger interior styled after that of the company's Premier 1A, the 350i is now the quietest of all King Airs, according to the airframer, with cabin sound levels reduced to an average of 78 dBA by extensive soundproofing. It is also the first business aircraft to use the Rockwell Collins Venue cabin management system, which supports multiple personal entertainment electronics such as laptop computers, DVD/Blu-ray players, iPods, gaming consoles and future HDMI devices. The turboprop twin also features Beechcraft's new FlexCabin functionality, which allows users to remove or change the seating configurations easily. Among the 350i's options is a vanity in the aft lavatory area with running water and automatic LED lighting, located next to the in-flight-accessible baggage area. The 350i was unveiled at the 2008 NBAA Convention, and the aircraft made its first flight in September. Deliveries began last month, following FAA approval on December 10 and EASA certification a week later.

2Pac- Same Song Lyrics
2Pac- Same Song Lyrics
[Chorus: repeat 2X]
All around the world same song
All all around the world same song
[Shock G]
I came for the party to get naughty get my rocks on
eat popcorn watch you move your body to the pop song
that I'm singing dinga linging funky beats ringing
everybody's swinging in the place
as I kick the J A Z Z Y is my style
R&B mixing it with the hip hop swing beat
Champagne in my hand, it wont be long till I'm gone
It's just the same old song
[Humpty Hump]
It's just a freestyle, meanwhile, we keep the beat kickin
sweat drippin, girlies in the limo eatin chicken
oops don't get the grease on your pantyhose
I love ya Rover, move over, I gotta blow my nose
Sneezin, but still I'm pleasin to all the slimmies
Pull out my jimmie, time to get busy wit a Jenny
if it's good and plenty, dont you know
there I go, there I go, there I go
But I dont go nowhere without my jim hat
If I'm rappin, cause she's clappin
then I'm strappin cause I'm smarter than that
then girlie maybe we can get along
Cutie after cutie, it's just the same old song
[Chorus: repeat 3X]
[Money B]
Money B, the freaky deaky, the sqeaky meaky up and down
as a matter of fact ill be right back i gotta take a leak
So I'm drainin entertainin, but I got fame
and the bases I touch to much for me tryin to be namin
Aiyyo, you saw me on cable and gip
I busted in and I was goin legit
Clark Gable back in Pakland its the same old song
sport these shorties, same freckles and hat
drinkin the same 40's
[Humpty Hump]
hypothetical, political, lyrical, miracle whip
just like butter, my ryhmes are legit
Cause I'm the humpty. not humpty dumpty, but humpty hump
here a hump, there a hump, everywhere a hump
[Shock G]
ah shut up and just listen
not dissin dont get me wrong
but to me its just the same old song
so just watch, my name is shock, and i like to rock
and you cant stop this
2Pac go ahead and rock this
Now I clown around when I hang around with the Underground
Girls use to frown, say I'm down, when I come around
gas me and when they pass me they use to diss me
harrass me, but now they ask me if they can kiss me
Get some fame, people change, wanna live they life high
same song, can't go wrong, if I play the nice guy
(clamin that they must have changed,just because we came strong)
I remain, still the same (why Tu'?) cause it's the same song
[Chorus: repeat 3X]

GAME TWO AWESOME. I should be sleeping but I need to finish this series
Comment # 4 by Ryougi
Great series and well deserved by DRG.
Also thumbs up for Djwheat's epic laugh at the end (Game 7, 18:16)
Comment # 5 by NathanS
So worth the watch. Great control start to finish.
Comment # 6 by aka
XD great games
Comment # 7 by Madrox
So happy for the champion! Such awesome games and fantastic decision making! OH MANN. That was so worth my time.
Hope noone read the comments before watching it (it's not spoiler free apparently). I made it a point not to and was on the edge of my seat the whole series.
Comment # 8 by Madrox
Best line of the tournament:
"There is no three times"
Baller bashing.
Comment # 9 by ex0
Tasteless was going on and on in game 1 about how the overlord missed spotting the two commands, and then at the game he said DRG played really well..
DRG thought he was playing like 3 base vs 2 base for awhile, and then 3-3 when it was like 4-3. He had some good engagements, but that was about it. Strategically, he got outplayed badly.
Comment # 10 by ex0
^^ "at the game" is meant to read "at the end" rather
Comment # 11 by Hillshtify
MKP will start losing more when ppl. realize how greedy he plays...he straight up goes CC first without scouting way to much not to be punished for it in the future...his control is overrated and he relies on it to be way to greedy against other players with great control..
He's really good, etc, etc...but damn he plays greedier than a zerg
Comment # 12 by henryinspace
Seemed like MKP was just too cocky much of the time. Thinking he could do too much with too few units. Good games.
Comment # 13 by Zadkiel
@Hillshtify, MKP plays like that because he knows how greedy DRG plays.
Good series. Worth the watch! Dont read some comments above if you dont want to be spoiled.
Comment # 14 by tommunation
great series, MKP should build a few missle turrets.
Comment # 15 by scorinal
jesus fucking christ how easy is shitty terran. GAME 1 is a joke, DRG DESTROYS 3 straight move-outs, and the T autowins
Comment # 16 by misanthropope
jesus quit your whining. we don't blame you for being stupid, but we DO blame you for inflicting your stupidity on us.
Comment # 17 by MrBubbels
awsome games!! but seriously mlg.. exchange your player for one with higher quality, and when your at it, exchange tastless for the same reason..
Comment # 18 by LordChambers
Wonderful series. Grubby is one of my new favorite casters, and while people sometimes point out how bad Tasteless is, the first minute and a half of game 5 is exactly why him and Artosis are great together. I was laughing my ass off games 5-7, when I wasn't on the edge of my seat.
Comment # 19 by Jasey
One of Tasteless' better performances actually. Medivac is OP, who is gonna deny it? It heals so fast for so little energy, you can almost constantly stim.
Comment # 20 by Loaded
holy shit what an expic series. Preciate SC2 Casts for laying mlg out perfectly for us to watch.
also @17 nailed it on both accounts lol
Comment # 21 by ha5u
Tasteless @ 10:50 of game 4 was priceless. Even if he is the weak link when it comes to analyzing, he's great for comic relief. And he's only the weak link because artosis, sheth, qxc and grubby are top tier.
Great series, happy for DRG. "For the swarm!" was lol.
Comment # 22 by dzatara
Weird, on game 3 MKP is with red hood all the game and when the game ends it's black...
How the hell is this possible?
Comment # 23 by chiahal
@dztara - i think there is some red /blue lighting that is turned on and off above their seats. his hood seems like its kind of shiny black so i think it was reflecting the red light.
Comment # 24 by CipheR
Congratulations DRG, good to see him back in shape. Tasteless seems to back into a good casting groove which is also great to see!
Comment # 25 by mitraidos
Tasteless was definitely on a caffeine rush. It was almost funny to hear his jumpy comments on literally everything.
Comment # 26 by TXr
Great games! I suppose MKP shows even more quality game show. Maybe if he had not decide to throw his marines blindly while DRG is pushing then all tournament could go in different direction.
p.s. What an epic music at the end of all games. Could anyone find it on inet? :)
Comment # 27 by Mynd
What a series!
How the hell are people here tolerating Tasteless? He's just spewing garbage, saying not only banal shit but also WRONG stuff. He doesn't know how to talk and he doesn't know what to say. He's ruining the casting for me :(
Comment # 28 by ScaleneZA
Are you kidding me Mynd? I thought he was fantastic here.
Comment # 29 by DonPedro
Tasteless can be funny, but he often just seems lost, always looking for some random trivial stuff he can say to get him over the cast i feel..
Comment # 30 by MrBubbels
I can see that some people find him funny. But sometimes it feels like he's a random bronzelegue player that doesn't understand the game at all. My hat of to tasteless, he probably a great guy, but he doesn't belong in procommeting contexts...
Comment # 31 by vnb
tasteless comments are really awful...
Great series ruined by a caster.
And the chemystry of the duo is weared off, it seems like artosis is barely tolerating tstlss shit.

Alaskan Town That Fell Victim to Cruel Taco Bell Hoax Gets Free Tacos
The closest Taco Bell to Bethel, Alaska is almost 400 miles away in Anchorage. That's why the town's 6,200 residents were so excited last month when flyers announcing the chain's arrival in Bethel began popping up.
But it wasn't to be. The pamphlet was a hoax, put up by a soulless prankster as a way of getting back at a rival by making their phone number the number to call for a job at the make believe new fast food restaurant.

Problems bridging LAN card to second card connected to Router.
I have a working setup that forwards traffic between my local LAN and a PPP connection connected via USB.
I'm trying to move my ADSL modem onto my new Router so that can operate it, and allow me to connect via wireless when my other machines are off.
However, after following this guide I cannot connect to the router web management page (192.168.0.5, it was default 192.168.0.1).
Here's what I'm doing.
Slackware System
# Setup my LAN ethernet card.
ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255
# Set my second ethernet card (in the same machine).
ifconfig eth2 192.168.0.4 netmask 255.255.255.0
# Setup a bridge.
brctl addbr br0 2&> /dev/null
brctl addif br0 eth0 2&> /dev/null
brctl addif br0 eth2 2&> /dev/null
brctl stp br0 off 2&> /dev/null
# Set the bridge interface.
ifconfig br0 192.168.0.6 netmask 255.255.255.0
# Routing table.
$ route -n
Kernel IP routing table
route add default gw 192.168.0.5 eth2
What am I doing wrong ?
DJ Barney
If I understand correctly you created a Layer 2 connection between eth0 and eth2.
So you problem is probably not the IP traffic from your system to the router, but the return traffic will never arrive. This traffic is bridged between eth0 to eth2.
I think you want to use your slackware system as a router with NAT functionality, not a bridge.
Yeah, from what I've been told the problem is with the routing table. I don't have the destinations set properly.
The only other possible problem is my firewall script. It is setup to forward packets between my USB/PPP connection and my LAN, so it should'nt be too much different with the USB/PPP replaced with an ethernet connection to the router.
So what is a bridge for anyway ? I searched a few places and it seemed to suggest you need one with two ethernet cards in the same machine. Does it just make traffic jump from eth0 to eth2, ignoring the machine they are on ? If so I probably could have used the router web admin from one of my other LAN machines. Anyway, thanks, I'll carry out tests without the bridge and see what I come up with.
DJ Barney
A bridge is completely transparent to your network and does not require any ip address assigned to it (except as a way to manage it). Usually you set the interfaces to 0.0.0.0 and then assign an IP to the br0.
And yes you need more than one interface to do bridging.
Just set up your network without the bridge in place and make sure everything is working. You should then be able to just put the bridge *inline* between your lan and router and it should just work with no changes to any machines. So treat it just like a switch (in fact you can normally replace it with one).
Example: At one time I had a wireless PCI card in a machine that I wanted to bridge onto my network so I did the following.
/sbin/ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 up #LAN Ethernet interface (was 192.168.0.1)
I tried what you said. It's probably right but I just don't gel with some networking stuff.
After starting to look like the guy in the Caffeine advert below (if you can see that), I decided to connect the router to my ethernet switch box that my other machines are connected to. Immediately zero problems. It connect to my ISP. I updated the firmware. It passes Shields Up! tests. I just had to add a rule to block ICMP Ping responses.
Now I just have to alter my linux machine so it does not conflict with the 192.168.0.1 address. Should be pretty simple. Just like adding a new address on my network like I did with my other machines.
The only thing I'm concerned about is the security of this router. I've been told that just having machines behind a router increases security. I'm just a bit nervous about having Windows machines that are not behind Linux iptables as, in my experience, exposing them to the net directly is an invitation to every trojan, spyware, and gremlin to come running in !
Hopefully this Plexus Wireless 54Mbps ADSL2+ Router is up to the job.
Thanks for the help people. Got there in the end :)

" My first experience with Platinum Autos came Whenever we brought my wife's Tahoe in for trade. Our experience was so exceptional that I looked to them when we decided to search for a Chevrolet.

" Great car, excellent deal, honest dealer! Thanks! I purchased a local, one owner, low mileage Toyota Avalon in excellent condition, from this dealer. The process was very easy and straightforward, and I received an excellent deal. I was treated honestly and fairly. Assuming this is how Platinum "rolls" on a regular basis, I would buy from them again without hesitation! Thanks Platinum! "

London, Nov 28 (ANI): Olga Kurylenko has revealed that being born poor is what keeps her grounded as a movie star.
"Growing up, I was extremely poor. I lived in a tiny Soviet communal apartment with four small rooms shared by six adults from my extended family and several children," the Daily Mail quoted her as saying.
"My mother had no money to buy me clothes so everything I wore had to be patched up and then patched up again. I'll never forget what it's like to go without. It means that I have very few extravagances. I squirrel my earnings away.
"The only thing I like to splash out on is food. I remember what it's like to be hungry and to dream of beautiful meals," she said. (ANI)

Patricia lives in central Cameroon. She's a lot like other girls. She likes to jump rope and talk with her friends. But in some ways Patricia is different from other children. She has HIV and often feels sick. Two years ago Patricia's mother died of AIDS, and Patricia and her sister went to live with their grandmother. Her father couldn't pay the girls' tuition at the Adventist school they had been attending, so he sent them to the public school near their home.
But the children in the public school shunned Patricia because of her illness. The girl begged her father to let her return to the Adventist school. "The teachers and children in the Adventist school don't tease me," she said. "They pray for me. They help me if I don't feel well or need help. Please, please, let me go to the Adventist school."
Finally Patricia's father allowed her to return to the Adventist school. "I love my school," she says. "When I'm feeling well, I'm just one of the children in my class. And when I'm not well, the teachers and the children help me."
Patricia's father can't always pay her tuition. So Patricia prays that God will make a way for her to remain in school.
Patricia enjoys attending Sabbath School, too. She likes the Bible stories the most. "My favorite story is about Moses," she says. "When he was born he was hidden in a basket and found by the pharaoh's daughter. God saved him from death because his mother prayed for him.
"God loved Moses very much," Patricia says with a smile. "He gave Moses a special work to do. I know that God loves me and He has something special for me to do, too. God can use me to help people come to Jesus. I don't know how He will do that, but I know He will."
Patricia wants others to know that even if they have problems in life-whether they are poor or sick or have no money-God is with them and will help them. "Trust God and worship Him," she says. "Whatever you do, do it for Jesus. That way others will know that Jesus lives in your heart."
Patricia knows that God didn't make her sick, but He can use her sickness to help other people learn about His love. She learned that at the little Adventist school in a village in Cameroon.
Our mission offerings help build schools such as the one Patricia attends. Thank you for being a part of something larger than any of us, God's work around the world.

Tragedy In Minneapolis
There was a horrifying bridge collapse in Minneapolis yesterday, which so far has resulted in the deaths of seven people, with over sixty people injured and twenty people still missing. It happened during rush hour.
An eight-lane highway bridge clogged with rush-hour traffic buckled and collapsed into the Mississippi River in central Minneapolis yesterday, pitching numerous vehicles into the roiling water below. At least seven people were killed and dozens were injured, authorities said.
Emergency officials said the toll could rise as rescuers, hampered by burning cars and hunks of broken roadway, scoured the debris-clogged river for survivors.
"This is a catastrophe of historic proportions for Minnesota," said Governor Tim Pawlenty, a Republican. "We are doing everything we can to make sure we respond as quickly as we can to this emergency."
The official Minneapolis website is urging people concerned about relatives to contact the Red Cross through their site at www.redcrosstc.org. as their phone system is having issues due to high call volume.
Our thoughts are with the survivors and the victims' families. As I said after the Virgina Tech shootings, if you love someone – tell em'.


text: May 04, 2012 Written by: MarshallR Upgrading the G75VW Articles: Hands On G Series Gaming Laptops Guides Article Tags: Hands OnGuides Upgrading the G75VW is relatively simple: you just need a Philips screw driver. It's just one screw keeping you out of the main hatch which covers the two 2.5" hard drive spaces, two SO-DIMM clips and one of the fan filters, as you can see below. Flip over the notebooks and unscrew the first hatch near the front: By removing two screws on each, the hard drives can be popped out using the pull tags. Then unscrew the old drive if there is one via its side-screws and add the new drive into the housing, before reversing the process to put it back in. Unscrew two screws and just give it a tug to the side before lifting it out. The housing will take SSDs, hybrid drives (like the Seagate Momentus XT) and SSDs in any mix and match configuration you desire. If you want to enable RAID0 or RAID1 for two HDD or SSD, it is available via the BIOS. From here, the left-hand fan filter is accessible for cleaning, while the right fan filter requires removing another Philips screw and accessing a smaller hatch. Just to be clear: removing these two screws does not void your warranty. Also, as you'd expect, the battery requires just flicking the clip on the base to swap it out. No screw removal required. However for the sake of transparency to our customers, please be aware of upgrade limitations. While the G75VW has four SO-DIMM slots in total; two of which are situated underneath the keyboard and accessing them requires chassis dismantling that voids your warranty so please plan your needs carefully before you buy. These two above will be populated first, at the factory, meaning if you buy an G75VW with 8GB DDR3 but later want 12GB or 16GB, dropping in one or two extra 4GB SO-DIMMs is a perfectly warranty-safe upgrade as this requires simply opening the base as described above. However, if you require upgrading all four SO-DIMM slots, this can only be done by unscrewing all visible screws on the base, removing the battery and optical drive, then gently separating the the motherboard tray from the keyboard. Evidently this process is not designed to be user upgradable, but if you feel you are technically adept and accept that you will not be able to return the notebook at a later date, it can be done.

BRUNSWICK — Family was the recipe of Lexi Poerner's life, the Rev. Bob Stec said Friday morning during her funeral Mass.
Hundreds packed St. Ambrose Catholic Church to pay their final respects to Poerner, 16, who was among four Brunswick High School students who died from injuries sustained in a Sunday car crash.
Multicolored construction-paper cards and banners filled two walls in the church. They said: "Forever in Our Hearts," "Never Be Forgotten," "Be Safe, Be Loved" and "Lots of Love from Brunswick."
During the service, Stec touched on Poerner's love of family and friends, camping, dancing and, like many teenage girls, shopping.
Stec mentioned how Poerner "sparkled at the prom" and how she enjoyed "shiny, spiritual things."
She also "liked noodles and potatoes," Stec said with a smile. "It was one of her favorite things to eat."
This summer, Poerner's grandmother was going to share her recipe for noodles and potatoes with her granddaughter, Stec said.
"I'd like to suggest she already has that recipe — the recipe of her life and good, strong family," he said. "She loved all the things of family."
Stec added: "When you mix all the ordinary ingredients together that came from her mom, dad and sister, it made a full life so wonderful."
Outside the church, Brunswick junior Kelly Crabtree described Poerner as a great friend and an avid fundraiser for school events.
"She was gorgeous, outgoing and so nice," Crabtree said prior to entering the church for Poerner's service. "Seeing and talking to her in the hallways, I'll really miss that."
It's been a rough week at school, Crabtree said.
"I cried nonstop the first two days," she said.
Friday's funeral Mass for Poerner was the third Stec presided over in two days for the Brunswick students.
Services for Blake Bartchak, 17, and Jeffrey Chaya, 18, were Thursday. They are buried beside one another at Resurrection Cemetery in Liverpool Township.
Poerner was buried Friday at Resurrection.
The service for the fourth crash victim, 18-year-old Kevin Fox, is 1 p.m. today at Cornerstone Chapel, 3939 Granger Road, Medina Township.

COLONIE, N.Y. – Ninety members of the 42nd Combat Aviation Brigade leave for the final round of their training in Fort Hood, Texas Friday.
The soldiers are headed to Fort Hood to continue their training before deploying to Kuwait in December to provide aviation support for U.S. military forces. They are the second wave of soldiers from this unit to deploy.
Around 60 soldiers left for training from the Latham headquarters September 25.
The current government shutdown is not affecting active military, but it does have an effect on some National Guard troops.
Units scheduled for annual training during the shutdown will not begin training unless they are doing so in preparation for deployment, and units currently at annual training will continue training until completion and will return to their home station under their annual training orders.
The shutdown has also forced thousands of technicians to
take mandatory unpaid leaves of absence, including workers at the base in
The 42nd combat aviation brigade is a component of the Troy-based 42nd Infantry Division and is responsible for units in 11 states.
The soldiers will be leaving from the Million Air Terminal on a chartered flight at Albany International Airport at 11 a.m.

So far we've seen a few shots that purportedly show the Sony Xperia Z3, but they've all been blurry spy shots typical of early phone leaks, so they're not the best things to go by if you actually want to get a real sense of how Sony's next flagship might look.
Thankfully a Chinese fan took it upon themselves to make some detailed renders based on the information and rumours that have been floating around so far, so while they're not official shots they're also not mere concepts, as they're based on actual information.
The renders posted on Digi-Wo and show the Xperia Z3 in a range of colours which Sony isn't likely to actually use, as the company tends to stick with white, black and sometimes purple for its flagship. But they're pretty all the same and give you a great sense of how the phone might look if the rumours and shots we've seen so far turn out to be accurate.
Though, as you might have noticed, what we're looking at isn't a million miles from what we have already in the Xperia Z2. The position of the earpiece on the front is a little different but otherwise the design is much the same, with the same overall shape and even more or less the same positioning of ports and buttons on the side.
That lines up with what we've heard though, as the Xperia Z3 is starting to sound a whole lot like the Xperia Z2, both visually and internally. Hopefully Sony has some surprises up its sleeve or as nice as the phone might look it could also be a disappointment. We should know for sure in early September, as Sony is expected to announce the device at IFA 2014.

Our Mumdex panel is feeling more optimistic about their family finances and future prospects than they were when we spoke to them in November last year.
But they are less optimistic when it comes to the future of the UK economy and their communities according to our latest poll of Asda mums carried out ahead of the Chancellor's Budget.
Our mums have outlined what they think the Government should do to help improve their lives. The top five areas Asda Mums would most like to see the Chancellor prioritise when looking at budgets for public spending all relate to public services: NHS, the Police, and schools and pre-schools, as well as maintaining access to a comprehensive welfare system and affordable housing.
They would also like to see the Government remove VAT on essential items such as sanitary products and children's medicines.
And they are urging the Chancellor to freeze or cut fuel duty. We know from the Asda Income tracker that the price of fuel has a huge impact on family spending power and that this is felt unevenly across the country – fuel costs make up a greater proportion of household spending in areas such as Northern Ireland, Scotland and the North East of England.

The Colbert Report has canceled tapings for Wednesday and Thursday, a fact that has riled Stephen Colbert fans across the web today.
Comedy Central, the Viacom property that airs the popular news satire broadcast, put out the following statement:
"Due to unforeseen circumstances, the show will air repeat episodes on Wednesday, February 15 and Thursday, February 16."
Stephen Colbert's publicist did not immediately respond to a request for comment, according to Reuters.
A person reportedly close to the show told The Wrap that production would resume "soon."
The Wall Street Journal says the stoppage is due to "an emergency in Mr. Colbert's family."
Whatever the reason the cryptic message has, predictably, created a social media firestorm among fans, which include this Macro writer.

The Wii Tower Gaming Station Organizes Your Wii Paraphernalia
The Wii Tower Station Keeps Your Wii Paraphernalia Organized
I try to keep my gaming goods including games, accessories and consoles stowed away, but what if you love your games so much that you want them on display?
For addicted Wii users, there's this handy invention called the Wii Tower Gaming Station, which comes in the same pristine white as the Wii itself. It also includes shelves which will hold up to 16 games, and a blue acrylic top area for either four remotes or nunchucks — although I'm sure you could stuff a couple Wii wheels up there as well.
I'm liking the idea, but I just don't think it's as chic as some storage units from Pottery Barn. . . but in a games room? Now that would be the perfect place for it. Each gaming station tower costs $70 each.

Forbes: How the IoT is Transforming the Meaning of Product
Dan Woods of Forbes writes on how the Internet of Things is transforming how manufacturers approach and create products. He highlights the need for vendors to make services a priority to create better value for their customers and for their own businesses. Woods highlights key takeaways from the recent LiveWorx and PTC Live Global events where both Jim Heppelmann, CEO of PTC and Russ Fadel, President & GM of ThingWorx talk about these new imperatives with a focus on PTC Customer Ingersoll Rand and ThingWorx Powered All Traffic Solutions.
Woods writes, "Just like Steve Jobs did, Many executives are going to face situations where an unexpected collection of functionality makes something new possible. The question really is not whether that collection is a product or a feature, but whether it is a business." Russ Fadel, President of ThingWorx suggested taking a bottom up approach to figuring out what the IoT and a more proactive, integrated service strategy mean to a manufacturer, "This space is too new and complex to figure out in a top-down way," said Fadel. "We've designed ThingWorx to lower the cost of building applications so companies can do experiments, succeed or fail fast, and get evidence about what their smart, connected products can do and what customers want. If you want to make money from the IoT, get your hands dirty right away."

How does liposculpture compare to liposuction?
Liposculpture Vs Liposuction?
Doctor Answers 17
Liposculpture is a marketing term for Liposuction
Liposculpture is a term used to describe using Liposuction to alter the body shape. It is a marketing term for Liposuction.
Some surgeons use the term Liposculpture to describe careful, small amounts of liposuction in an attempt to improve for example, the show of the "abs" in people who are not fat. Other areas that are sculpt include the hips, knees, neck and jawline using careful small cannulae removing small amounts of fat.

Liposculpture and Liposuction
These days, non Plastic surgeons are accidentally and purposefully confused by the differing terminology of Liposuction thrown at them. Some of it derives from the natural growth and advances in liposuction but much more is intentional deception and marketing hype.
How many Liposuction terms have you heard ? Plenty! Some of the most common terms you hear are:
- - Traditional
- - Tumescent
- - Ultrasonic (UAL)
- - VASER, Liposelection
- - Laser Liposuction, SmartLipo, SlimLipo etc
Traditional Liposuction is NO LONGER being practiced. It came out in the early 1970's and involved vacuuming fat under the skin without previous infiltration of the fat with a (numbing blood vessel spasm causing) tumescent solution.
Tumescent Liposuction (SAL - suction assisted lipectomy) involves the infiltration of the fat with a SWELLING (Latin word=Tumere as in tumor) solution containing a numbing medication AND Epinephrine to cause blood vessel spasm and markedly reduce blood losses. Liposuction proceeds 15-20 minutes after the tumescent fluid is infiltrated. EVERY PLASTIC SURGEON USES THIS TECHNIQUE. Contrary to what you hear, it is widely accepted and used and there is NOTHING new or revolutionary about using it.
Ultrasonic assisted Lipectomy (UAL) - involves the use of specific frequencies of sound waves to shake and break SPECIFICALLY fat cells from the inside by passing the ultrasound emitting probe through the fat. That fat is then vacuumed using the usual liposuction tubes.
VASER - is a subcategory of UAL produced buy Sound Surgical of Colorado. They also coined the marketing term LIPO-SELECTION. I like and use this technique and it comes in useful in several types of cases.
Power Assisted Liposuction (PAL) is the use of back and forth generating hand held engine to move the liposuction tube. It greatly reduces surgeon fatigue and may speed up the duration of a procedure.
Laser Liposuction, Laser assisted Liposuction (LAL) - After injection of tumescent solution (as we do IN ALL LIPOSUCTION CASES), a laser fiber is passed back and forth through the fat literally heating / cooking it. The resulting fluid is then removed by the usual suction. Laser companies claim it results in greater skin shrinkage than other methods of liposuction. That has NOT yet been proven in a single scientific study BUT the method attracts a lot of willing patients because of its catchy names and the Star Wars laser mystique.
That is ALL there is to it. At the end of the day, your result will NOT be determined by the method of liposuction but by the hands and brain of the Plastic surgeon who does the procedure.

Liposculpture Vs Liposuction
Liposcupture is a marketing term for liposuction which is used to link the art with the science of a successful surgery. Some offices used it to differentiate a procedure that will provide subtle changes to the body versus significant changes through liposuction.

Liposuction vs liposculpture
I am afraid it is all marketing. It is an attempt to make the Liposculpture sound new,more artistic , with more finesse. In reality, it is all liposuction, the Liposculpture procedures are done with small cannulas, or tubes, but they have been around for years prior to the term Liposculpture.Liposculpture is done under both tumescent or general anesthesia.
What's in a name.
Liposuction is the removal of fat to create a contour. Liposculpture was coined in the mid 1990's and implied the use of local anesthetics and small cannulas. It's really the same. Liposelection I'd the term that was introduced by Sound Surgical for the Vaser system.
Liposculpture is liposuction
The marketing of plastic surgery astounds me.
Liposculpture, liposelection, liposuction. They are all the same thing. Liposuction, when done well, should always be scultping. The goal of liposuction is not just fat removal. It is the smooth, contoured removal of fat.
Don't feel bad you were misled. Many of the terms out there were created to make you think something is new and exciting. The marketing of plastic surgery has gotten out of control.
Liposuction and Liposculpture are synonymous terms
Liposuction and Liposculpture are one in the same. They both refer to the exact same surgical procedure of removing fat by suctioning it from various body areas. The eye of a sculptor is a prerequisite of each and every surgeon performing this operation.

Doug Henry: Rebuilding -- again
Doug Henry stays positive; it's the only way he knows. With every excuse to give up, he calls the devastating episodes in his life "mishaps" and instead of letting them burden him he just rebuilds. His story is famous even to casual observers of American motorsports: the back injury from the gotta-see-it-to-believe-it motocross crash of 1995, the supermoto wreck that resulted in paralysis in March 2007, his wife's breast cancer diagnosis two weeks later and, most recently, on the day before Thanksgiving 2010, their Torrington, Conn., house fire.
Henry credits his parents for his manners. "My whole thing now is not looking at the things I don't have and only looking at the things I do have," he said. "You get pretty insane dwelling on the stuff you don't have," he says.
It would seem Winter X would be the furthest thing from his mind but, says Henry, with the timing, it's both a welcome distraction and a burden. He spends his days working with his wife to help their two children maintain as normal a life as possible, deal with insurance agents and figure out a plan for a permanent place to live. They haven't decided if they're going to rebuild on the same property.
Winter X is something Henry is unwilling to give up, even at the end of the first week of January, when he was still waiting for his snowmobile to arrive. Shipping issues delayed delivery through the holidays, and even on the day it was finally to arrive, he received a text message saying that the shipping truck had broken down. It would be another day. That's OK, Henry sighed. There wasn't any snow on the ground at the time anyway.
Henry was the only para-athlete in Adaptive SnoCross competition at Winter X 2010, and he earned a bronze medal. He has been working with a company in Torrington called Fab-U-This on designing a special seat that will allow him more movement. "The difference between a bike and a snowmobile is that a motorcycle leans so I don't need the seat to lean," he says. "On the snowmobile I have a seat where it leans from side to side so I'm able to shift my weight to the inside of the corner and back to center again. Fab-U-This is the same company that developed the roll cage for his dirt bike in the summer of 2009. Henry hopes to have the seat finished in time for Winter X, but he couldn't complete the design until the sled arrived.
In 2011, Henry will be joined by several para-athletes, but he's still shooting for top overall rider on his Yamaha Nitro. "Mike Schultz is going to be very difficult because he's a great rider and he's an amputee with a ton of racing and snowmobile experience," Henry says. While he might not be the fastest rider, if Henry can get close to Schultz's pace, he can use the pressure tactic to force a mistake.

Temporary Total Disability Compensation
by Justice Paul E. Pfeifer
In January 2007, Guiseppe Gullotta injured his back while working for Akron Paint and Varnish, Inc. ("APV"). His claim with the Industrial Commission of Ohio – which handles such matters – was allowed for lumbar sprain, and he received temporary total disability ("TTD") compensation for several weeks before returning to light-duty work consistent with his doctor's medical restrictions.
In March, Guiseppe's doctor found that his physical capabilities had improved and reduced his work restrictions. Based on the new, lesser restrictions, APV began to increase Guiseppe's job duties.
Guiseppe complained to his employer about his job duties, and on April 16, he met with a vice president at APV, who offered him another position also within his physical limitations. But Guiseppe said he didn't want that job either; he then immediately resigned and left the building.
Four months later, Guiseppe submitted another request to the Commission for TTD compensation for the period from April 24 through November 4, 2007. A district hearing officer denied the request, concluding that Guiseppe had voluntarily abandoned his employment and thereby removed himself from the workforce.
But a staff hearing officer – the next step along in the process – vacated that order and entered a new one, still denying benefits, but for a different reason. The staff hearing officer determined that the period of disability for which Guiseppe was requesting compensation was not related to his injury, but rather was due to his refusal to return to his light-duty job or to accept the suitable alternative employment that had been offered.
The staff hearing officer noted that Guiseppe was medically unable to return to his former position at the time he quit, so his resignation could not be termed a voluntary abandonment.
In March 2008, Guiseppe's claim was additionally allowed for aggravation of preexisting hypertrophy. As a result, Guiseppe filed a new motion for TTD benefits. Once again a district hearing officer denied the request on the basis that Guiseppe had refused a light-duty job offer and that he had failed to present evidence that his additionally allowed medical condition resulted in any different work restrictions.
And once again, a staff hearing officer reversed that ruling, concluding that Guiseppe's newly allowed condition was evidence of new and changed circumstances. The hearing officer determined that Guiseppe's condition had worsened and that this change warranted payment of TTD compensation.
In response to this, APV filed a complaint in the court of appeals, alleging that the Commission had abused its discretion. The matter was referred to a magistrate, who agreed that the Commission had abused its discretion, and concluded that Guiseppe had not submitted evidence that would justify renewed TTD in light of his previous refusal of the work made available by APV.
The magistrate further concluded that even if there was medical evidence that Guiseppe's condition had worsened since his resignation, he "has lost no wages during the period of claimed disability for which he can be compensated."
In adopting the magistrate's findings, the court of appeals ordered the Commission to vacate its last order and to deny TTD compensation. After that, the case came before us – the Ohio Supreme Court.
Ohio law says that TTD compensation terminates when the employee returns to work, is medically capable of returning to work, or has reached maximum medical improvement. TTD compensation is also barred when "work within the physical capabilities of the employee is made available by the employer or another employer."
If an employee's TTD compensation is terminated, the employee may seek renewed compensation if the employee again becomes temporarily totally disabled. In such a case, the Commission may exercise continuing jurisdiction and may modify or change its former orders when justified. Put another way, the Commission may reopen the issue of TTD eligibility if there are new and changed circumstances.
The issue in this case was the Commission's last order, in which a staff hearing officer granted Guiseppe TTD compensation for a period of time after he left APV. The hearing officer relied on Guiseppe's additionally allowed medical condition as evidence of new and changed circumstances justifying the exercise of continuing jurisdiction by the Commission.
But the court of appeals concluded that Guiseppe had not presented evidence of new and changed circumstances, and we agreed. As Justice Evelyn Lundberg Stratton noted in writing our majority opinion, "Although the worsening of an existing medical condition or a newly allowed medical condition often serves as new and changed circumstances justifying the exercise of continuing jurisdiction to modify a previous order, in this case, the previous order denying TTD was not based on medical evidence but rather on the statutory bar of compensation when a claimant unjustifiably refuses light-duty work made available by the employer."
Guiseppe presented no evidence that his employment situation had changed. With no loss of wages, an award of TTD compensation was not warranted, since the purpose of TTD benefits is to compensate for loss of earnings.
Guiseppe admitted that his prior request for TTD benefits was barred by his refusal to accept a suitable job. Nevertheless, he argued that the additionally allowed medical condition presented new physical restrictions and that APV did not offer alternative employment consistent with his new physical restrictions.
He contended that APV must make a new good-faith offer of employment taking into account his new work restrictions caused by the new condition – one that was recognized after he no longer worked at APV.
But the additionally allowed medical condition, recognized since his resignation, did not change the fact that Guiseppe unjustifiably refused light-duty work in April 2007. We therefore agreed with the court of appeals that the Commission abused its discretion when it determined that there was evidence to support a finding of new and changed circumstances.
Guiseppe presented no evidence of circumstances, new or changed, that would demonstrate a loss of wages as a result of TTD. The Commission abused its discretion when it exercised continuing jurisdiction. Therefore, by a seven-to-zero vote, we affirmed the judgment of the court of appeals.
EDITOR'S NOTE: The case referred to is State ex rel. Akron Paint & Varnish, Inc., v. Gullotta, 131 Ohio St.3d 231, 2012-Ohio-542. Case No. 2010-0636. Decided February 15, 2012. Majority opinion written by Justice Evelyn Lundberg Stratton.

PHILADELPHIA -- Jason Babin made 18 sacks in 2011, an average of more than one every game, against good quarterbacks and bad, against quick drops and pocket attacks, early and late.
He wasn't the reason the Eagles finished 8-8. He was a reason they didn't finish 6-10
So when the defensive end injured his calf and skipped all of training camp and the preseason, there was a natural murmur: Will he be the same upon his return?
This, then, from Week 1, and the Birds' 17-16 victory in Cleveland: One sack, six hurries, a forced fumble and four tackles for the defensive end, who was in the last two Pro Bowls and officially has made a down payment on a third.
"There was a point in about the second quarter, when I said to Wash (defensive line coach Jim Washburn), something along the lines of, 'Expletive, I am back, expletive,'" Babin said, laughing, in the NovaCare Complex Thursday. "And I think we both knew I was back in the swing of things."
The Eagles emerged from Cleveland with their record clean but their list of concerns cluttered, content with the victory but not satisfied with all of its elements. Except one: The harassment they applied on overmatched Browns quarterback Brandon Weeden. Since Weeden was necessarily relying on quick drops to avoid the Birds' rush, he was sacked just twice. But he was intercepted four times, with the connection clear.
He was pressured ... and it showed.
"The thing is," defensive coordinator Juan Castillo said, "we played the way we are supposed to play."
That included Babin, who was presumed to have been in peak condition despite his silent training camp -- then showed exactly that with a full afternoon's work in Cleveland, leaving the field only rarely.
"Jason Babin was relentless," Castillo said. "He was unbelievable. I think he hadn't practiced in a long time and hadn't hit anybody. I think he was ready to hit somebody. I think we were successful against the run game, and that was really all because of the defensive front."
Babin showed burst and athleticism, and while those were his career trademarks, they remained a mystery as the season-opener neared, the calf being so vital to a quick jump at every snap.
"Maybe that's because I had to spend all my time with (trainer) Rick Burkholder at 6 a.m. every day," Babin said. "But everything turned out great with my rehab. I was kind of impressed at how good it worked out. My conditioning was good. My calf felt good. And thankfully, I guess I didn't need my preseason to keep my craft alive."
Different players, different sayers. Haven't the Eagles tried to use rustiness to explain a difficult Game 1 by Michael Vick, who'd been limited by injury to 12 preseason plays? Then again, as well as Babin played Sunday, he may have even more to provide, now that he has played a game on his healed calf.
"The most disappointing thing about that was we left so many sacks on the field," he said. "That was nobody's fault but ours -- not doing the exact right footwork, or the exact right steps, or the exact right calls that we were supposed to do. So that is a little concerning. So that leaves a lot of room for improvement, believe it or not."
It will be difficult for Babin to improve on his 18-sack season, tied for third best in Eagles history, behind only Reggie White (21 in 1987) and Clyde Simmons, who had 19 in 1992.
But he is 1-for-1 in impressive box score lines ... and victories.
"It's better than doing bad," he said. "But there is always room for improvement. And we're out there working on it."
