Joseph Jones and Mary Ann (Spears-Bishop) Clement Family
Wellsville, MO Jan 1 1985 Mr William Bishop Jr. First let me introduce my self. I am the son of Charles Edward Clement. My Grandmother is Mary Ann Bishop Clement, she was first married to Granville Addison Bishop. And after his death she married Joseph Jones Clement, which is my Grandfather. Some of my relatives called me and ask if I could give her some information in regards to the family tree. I told her to get a true picture of the tree the Bishop family would have to be included. So I ask Barbara Fort if she could give me names, dates, children etc. One thing she gave me was the (James Bishop/Allied Family Information Interchange), that you wrote up. I must say William I enjoyed reading it. When I got to the family Group sheet that contains Grandma and Granville names I found that Mary Ann Wingfield is not right. My Grandmother was born Mary Ann Spiers. Mary Ann Spiers mother was Jane Pope Lail. My mom & dads cousin from Florrisant, MO, sent them a paragraph she copied out of a book. (Quote) John Lail was born while his parents were prisoners in an Indian camp in Kentucky. When he was grown he married Susan Williams, and settled in Harrison County, Ky. They had George, John, Charles, Elijah, Nancy, Margaret, Jane, Lucinda, Elizabeth, and Susan. George, John, Charles, Margaret, and Susan all married and remained in Kentucky, Nancy married and lived in Indiana, Jane [my Great Grandmother] was first married to John Speirs, and after his death she married Edward Wingfield, who settled in Montgomery County, MO in 1834. Elizabeth was married first to Noah Coil, and second to Mr A. Hall. She has twelve children living, Luncinda married Elijah Coil, by whom she had Six children. Elijah married Harriet Allen, of Kentucky, by whom he had Fourteen children. He died in 1869, leaving his children all well off. (End of Quote) Jane Pope Lail was born Aug 8, 1804 died March 9 1905. The Speirs children were Mary Ann, Susan, and Noah. The Wingfield children were Sally (married a Purvis), Lucy, and Carrie. Aunt Sally lived in Texas, but visited mom & dad in the early 1930's. There were 10 in our family. but only two of us left now. Frances and me. Frances is 82 and I am 68. Frances is living with me now as she has Alzheimers Disease. Right now it is just the memory that is affected. Will close for now just wanted you to know Grandmother's last names, in case no ones else has told you. Yours truly Joseph W Clement 208 East St. Wellsville, MO 63384

It seemed like just the right case to start the public debate on driving-while-#GlassExploing: Google Glass aficionada Cecilia Abadie was snagged doing 80 in a 65 on a San Diego freeway while wearing the device. (Clearly, the real headline here should be: Attractive Woman Wears Nerd Glasses: Only In California.) The CHP ticketed her for the speed and also for "driving with a monitor visible in violation of California Vehicle Code 27602."
Miss Abadie did not deny wearing the glasses.
She posted a photo of the citation on her Google+ page above, which was both proof of the incident and of the fact that a woman has signed up to use Google+. One can only guess at the carefully-JavaScripted marriage proposals she's receiving over RESTful services right now. The below video, which your author admittedly could only watch for seven seconds before starting to daydream that he was jumping an SLS AMG Black Series over an Olympic-sized swimming pool filled with hammerhead sharks, offers some of her thoughts on the device.
When it came time to face the court, Ms. Abadie denied that she was speeding but proudly admitted to wearing The Glasses Of The Future. The stage was set to wrangle out of the future of heads-up device use in the United States… but then a San Diego court commissioner dismissed both the monitor-watching and the speeding charges, saying that he could find no evidence that Ms. Abadie was using the Google Glasses while driving. Insofar as Ms. Abadie clearly stated that she was doing so, this amounts to case allergy on the part of the court. One can almost imagine the anonymous commissioner washing his hands while some Pharisees watch him do it. (What's the modern equivalent of a Pharisee? An intellectual-property attorney?)
Your humble author is very much looking forward to seeing some actual court rulings on this matter, because it places two of California's favorite things into uncomfortable juxtaposition. On one hand, there's the official state policy that looking at anything from a 27″ Curtis-Mathes to the externally-mounted fiber-optic turn-signal notifiers on one's Eldorado constitutes attempted murder via distracted driving. On the other hand, there's the fact that Google in its infinite political power wishes to make the Google Glass a permanent wearable for everyone. No doubt politicians will be thrashing around in their beds at night, wondering if acting against Google Glass will cause their names to appear in election-year search autocompletes with "molester of infant goats". Let the games begin!

" The CHP ticketed her for the speed and also for "driving with a monitor visible in violation of California Vehicle Code 27602."
This needs clarification. Wouldn't this in effect outlaw in dash infotainment systems and any kind of GPS Nav system?
"27602. (a) A person shall not drive a motor vehicle if a television receiver, a video monitor, or a television or video screen, or any other similar means of visually displaying a television broadcast or video signal that produces entertainment or business applications, is operating and is located in the motor vehicle at a point forward of the back of the driver's seat, or is operating and the monitor, screen, or display is visible to the driver while driving the motor vehicle.
(b) Subdivision (a) does not apply to the following equipment when installed in a vehicle:
(1) A vehicle information display.
(2) A global positioning display.
(3) A mapping display.
(4) A visual display used to enhance or supplement the driver's view forward, behind, or to the sides of a motor vehicle for the purpose of maneuvering the vehicle.
(5) A television receiver, video monitor, television or video screen, or any othersimilar means of visually displaying a television broadcast or video signal, if that equipment satisfies one of the following requirements:
(A) The equipment has an interlock device that, when the motor vehicle is driven, disables the equipment for all uses except as a visual display as described in paragraphs (1) to (4), inclusive.
(B) The equipment is designed, operated, and configured in a manner that prevents the driver of the motor vehicle from viewing the television broadcast or video signal while operating the vehicle in a safe and reasonable manner.
(6) A mobile digital terminal that is fitted with an opaque covering that does not allow the driver to view any part of the display while driving, even though the terminal may be operating, installed in a vehicle that is owned or operated by any of the following:
(A) An electrical corporation, as defined in Section 218 of the Public Utilities Code.
(B) A gas corporation, as defined in Section 222 of the Public Utilities Code.
(C) A sewer system corporation, as defined in Section 230.6 of the Public Utilities Code.
(D) A telephone corporation, as defined in Section 234 of the Public Utilities Code.
(E) A water corporation, as defined in Section 241 of the Public Utilities Code.
(F) A local publicly owned electric utility, as defined in Section Section 224.3 of the Public Utilities Code.
(G) A city, joint powers agency, or special district, if that local entity uses the vehicle solely in the provision of sewer service, gas service, water service, or wastewater service.
(c) Subdivision (a) does not apply to a mobile digital terminal installed in an authorized emergency vehicle or to a motor vehicle providing emergency road service or roadside assistance.
(d) Subdivision (a) does not apply to a mobile digital terminal installed in a vehicle when the vehicle is deployed in an emergency to respond to an interruption or impending interruption of electrical, natural gas, telephone, sewer, water, or wastewater service, and the vehicle is owned or operated by any of the following:
(1) An electrical corporation, as defined in Section 218 of the Public Utilities Code.
(2) A gas corporation, as defined in Section 222 of the Public Utilities Code.
(3) A sewer system corporation, as defined in Section 230.6 of the Public Utilities Code.
(4) A telephone corporation, as defined in Section 234 of the Public Utilities Code.
(5) A water corporation, as defined in Section 241 of the Public Utilities Code.
(6) A local publicly owned electric utility, as defined in Section Section 224.3 of the Public Utilities Code.
(7) A city, joint powers agency, or special district, if that local entity uses the vehicle solely in the provision of sewer service, gas service, water service, or wastewater service."
Ok, so this is pretty clear

So if you're using it for turn-by-turn navigation, that would be bad? Because it sticks on your head, instead of your windshield? In that case, go for the Vuzix glasses, they actually look like shades and will still do about everything google glass does.

The last ticket I got was 81mph in a 65mph zone. The state trooper told me If I kept it under 80 no one would bother me. I have and have not gotten any more tickets. 79 mph is the unofficial Wisconsin speed limit, now about those "left-laners"…

mypoint02January 19th, 2014 at 10:10 am
This is true. The reason being that higher fines kick in at 15 over on the freeway. It's nearly $100 more once you hit 80 or more. I received a ticket for 80 in a 65 on I-94 and the cop said it would have been half as much if I had been going 1 MPH slower. I did end up getting both the fine and charge reduced, but lesson learned. I keep it under 80 and have been fine ever since.

WhiskerDaVinciJanuary 19th, 2014 at 2:11 am
It should, which is part of the reason why in-dash infotainment and GPS either warn you, or in some instances for you to hit agree in regards to not using them while driving. By being given access to them, you've agreed not to use them beyond a quick glance, as you would a normal stereo screen or instrument.
Or at least that's what my family attorney told me once when I asked why cars had those warnings when turning them on.

sachiJanuary 18th, 2014 at 11:23 am
I was just going to post that!
I'm a semi-retired CA criminal attorney, and my sense was that the court saw a difference between simply wearing the Glass and using it. The law bars a device that "is operating" as well as located where the driver can see it. There presumably was no evidence that the Glass was "operating," so the judge properly dismissed the charge.

AMC_CJJanuary 18th, 2014 at 11:25 am
Problem is the "glass" is not actually installed like a infotainment system/GPS. It's pretty much like having a cell phone, yet hands free. Could you use your cell phone in the state if it was on the GPS fuction?
Let's face it, things are quickly becoming a nanny state. The fact that this woman, or anybody else for that matter, should have to waste their time on this is nonsense. This is what socialism and big government bring when they take root, period.
On the flip side, I'd never be caught dead looking like such a loser with a computer strapped around my head. But then again, I just junked the smart phone after a year and I'm going back to a regular phone; no internet, texting, etc. I just don't see the point in in getting caught up in this new wired (or wireless?) world.

You know people wearing these are very annoying and I routinely see them throughout various parts of NYC. Most people cannot multitask and walk while using these, they sure as shit shouldnt be driving with them. I think it's still in explorer/testing phase, so I find them acting like snobs and always talking in the air. I'd rank them up there with Bluetooth hands free users in parks, walking down the street or blabbing away at coffee shops.
I'm also waiting for the reports of thugs snatching these off people from NYC subways to start once available to mass public…. It would be cool if a "stolen mode" would be added, which would constantly blink a red led and emit a GPS sIgnal when turned on rendering it useless.
Then again I'm also very anti using the phone while driving, I have Bluetooth built in my vehicle and use it to answer calls. I won't use it for extended conversations, or text, surf and email like most people I see doing here. Recently I've had 2 friends involved in accidents where the other party was on the phone, ran a redlight/stop sign and T boned them. People need to get thier heads out of their asses and pay attention.

For the case to have set a precedent, it would have to gone to the appeals court, and then the ruling would have to be published.
There wasn't any chance of that here. She brought a lawyer to traffic court, which changed everything.
Many traffic court judges will ignore most of your Sixth Amendment rights if you represent yourself. But having an attorney buys you temporary membership into the Criminal Justice Club, allowing for the possibility that you could actually have a fair trial with the presumption of innocence.

That California Statute appears to outlaw using the built-in screens on vehicles for controlling the radio/sound systems on the vehicle, as these would come under the "entertainment" prohibition. This also appears to be true of my local Ontario HTA.

Why I hate people from Temecula, so glad to be out of that Hell hole. That's where the driver hails from. She was actually popped in San Diego. Temecula is notorious for hyper aggressive tailgaters, erratic and distracted drivers in BMW's and huge lifted trucks, and they bring their nasty habits with them…. I'm sure the Google Glasses will HELP with that……
Not suprised she fought it, even though she was SPEEDING. Here's an idea; leave the glasses at home and focus on driving! What a novel concept!

CNN aired an interview with Kid Rock on Friday after they were forced to delay the broadcast on Thursday. Rock talked to Wolf Blitzer about his visit to the Middle East to perform for U.S. troops, his support for the war, and whether that support had strained his relationship with singing partner Sheryl Crow, who had strongly opposed military action. Rock was mum when asked about Pamela Anderson, but did offer an opinion on Thursday's Supreme Court ruling overturning the Texas sodomy law. Read on for a transcript.Blitzer: Kid Rock, thanks so much for joining us, let's get to the issue at hand. You entertained a lot of U.S. soldiers, the marines, the U.S. troops, in Iraq. What made you want to go over there? Kid Rock: It was not the first USO thing I've done, but every time I've been it's been a great experience. Just seeing those kids' faces when they see someone from the homeland. Especially, maybe, an entertainer, somebody that they look up to, just to see their eyes light up and see it all. The situations there to be taken away for a moment is just worth it itself. Plus, just being able to help out and do whatever I can, you know, for this great nation that we all live in. Blitzer: Where exactly did you go and were you scared? Kid Rock: We were in Kuwait, we were in Qatar, and we were in Baghdad, Saddam International Airport — I guess they formerly called it. Scared? Maybe your nerves get a little wracked because things go through your head of ,maybe, what could happen. But at the end of the day, you know, you think about it, we have the best trained technical military on the face of this planet. So to be smack-dab in the middle with them is probably the safest place to be in the world. Blitzer: What did those troops say to you? Kid Rock: You know, the reason why I'm doing this interview and some other ones, is because a lot of kids kept coming up to me. And these kids 18, 22, 23 years old, they kept, Rock, what do they think of what we're doing, back home? What do they think of us? And I assumed, and from talking to them, that a lot of it had to do with what they hear coming out of Hollywood, and a lot of other people that have outlets to the media, and are very vocal with their viewpoints. And I don't think they understand sometimes that maybe some people that are talking about, you know, our president and government, it still means they support them. And I let them know that, you know, there's a lot of people like myself, the people I'm around, and basically middle America that really appreciate and support you guys, and support our government, and are 100 percent behind you guys. So I figured that everybody else can take advantage of this media outlet they have to protest and say the negatives, I thought maybe it was time that somebody step forward and say something positive about what these kids are doing, which is basically putting their lives on the line for our freedoms. Which we are all well aware of. Blitzer: Is it fair to say, though, Kid Rock, that you're in the minority as far as the entertainment world, Hollywood, show businesses when it comes to your passionate support for this war? Kid Rock: Well, you know, it's kind of funny. Because usually I'm in the big mouth category. And on this I do seem to be in the, I guess, small mouth minority category for some reason. But, I don't know, just I think a lot of us that support our government are really more focused on doing the right thing. Going to work every day. Taking our families, and supporting our government. Rather than go out and use all these outlets to talk so negatively about some things that maybe we don't understand. Me myself, I'm not the most political person in the world, so I don't really think it's my place to speak because I'm not educated enough to make decisions for our country, so you know, that's what I think. Blitzer: You and Sheryl Crow have a smash hit, which I love, but her politics are obviously a lot different than yours. She was adamantly against the war. Has this strained your relationship with her? Kid Rock: No, not at all. You know, that's one of the beautiful things of our country that these guys are out there putting their lives on the line for, that somebody can be against it and somebody can be for it. And, you know, we've talked about it a little bit here and there, and I think maybe she has some good viewpoints. I think mine are a little better obviously, but it hasn't strained our relationship at all. She's still a great friend and wonderful person. Blitzer: What else are you going to do for those troops beyond what you have already done? Kid Rock: What else would I do? Blitzer: What else would you do, yes. Would you want to go back? Kid Rock: I would go back anytime, anyplace, anywhere. I was kind of joking with them, though, you know, I said next time can you guys try find a war to start a war in Tahiti or something? It's like 130 degrees over there. These poor kids in Baghdad have no running water, no showers. They wipe with baby wipes. My heart goes out to them. And I think everybody that was on that USO tour will tell you, that being in Baghdad that day, that afternoon, there was something very special in the air. And for a few hours there it seemed like everybody really realized what life's about, how important our families are, and how lucky we are to live in this great country. Blitzer: I've got to ask you one last question, Kid Rock, before I let you go. We've been promoting your appearance on our program now for some 24 hours. I'm getting flooded with e-mails. All your fans out there are asking me this question, "what's going on between you and Pamela Anderson"? Kid Rock: I won't even comment on that, Wolf. I don't think that needs to overshadow the important things that our soldiers and our military are doing for our country. I don't think it's really even important. Blitzer: Alright, well it's obviously important to a lot of your fans. Their really curious to know, but I respect your privacy. Kid Rock: I don't think anyone's losing sleep over it, Wolf. Blitzer: Alright, you are probably are right on that. Kid Rock, congratulations to you. Thanks for doing a good job for the U.S. military. Kid Rock: And Wolf, if I could just make one more comment, I've been watching CNN here, and I keep hearing about the decision with the Supreme Court with the homosexual ruling. I just want to say I think it's a beautiful thing. Because if you really think about it, you know, the more gay men there are in the world, that just leaves more chicks for me and you, Wolf.

A troubling new study from the Renfrew Center finds makeup has become an addicting crutch for women. Of the 1,292 women surveyed, when not in makeup, 44 percent felt negative about themselves, 16 percent felt "unattractive" and 14 percent felt "naked." 25 percent of the women also started wearing makeup at 13 or younger.
The pressure is somehow understandable considering a recent study by Procter & Gamble that found that ladies wearing more makeup (or in science-speak, "varying intensities of luminance contrast") were deemed to be more competent than their barefaced counterparts. This obsession with looking perfect may also explain the growing market for permanent makeup.
The message that women are getting, whether from scientific studies or well-intentioned mothers, is clear: makeup is a necessity to success. Feminist bloggers have tried reclaiming natural beauty with No Makeup Week -- inspiring women across the nation to take the barefaced plunge.
But is that enough of a dent? This dependence on makeup not only suggests a sad truth about the expectations of women (expectations that they have placed on themselves and that they have received from society) but, lest we forget the lead-in-lipstick fiasco that is still unresolved, it also poses a serious health risk. What will it take for us to stop reaching for the eyeliner?

Kristin Chenoweth struck gold when she brought up a member of her Hollywood Bowl audience for a duet: Sarah Horn turned out to be a voice teacher with serious chops.
During Friday's performance, Chenoweth started out doing the heavy lifting on a performance of "For Good" from the musical "Wicked." But once she realized who she was dealing with, she let Horn have at it.
"Oh sing it, sing it," she said, later adding: "Holy crap, harmony!"
A video of the performance has earned more than 2 million views, and counting.

Virginia State Police are looking for a pickup truck belonging to a Max Meadows man charged with striking several motorcycles on Interstate 77 Sunday and then fleeing the scene.
George E. Sparkman, 55, of the 300 block of Alleghany Road in Max Meadows, was arrested around 10:30 p.m. Sunday at an Exit 41 truck stop. However, authorities have yet to locate the truck involved in the hit-and-run.
The vehicle is described as a black 1999 Chevrolet S-10 pickup truck, with probable damage to its front and sides.
According to State Police, eight motorcycles were traveling together in the left northbound lane when the pickup truck continually swerved into their lane, striking six of the motorcycles before fleeing the scene.
Police said Sparkman was taken into custody without incident. He is charged with three counts of malicious wounding, four counts of attempted malicious wounding, one count of hit-and-run and one count of reckless driving. Alcohol was a factor in the incident, authorities allege.
The wreck occurred just after 6 p.m. Sunday in the northbound lanes of I-77, just south of Exit 47 and near the border of Wythe and Bland counties.
The seven motorcycle riders and passengers injured were identified as Jack Luikart and Steven and Lisa Pete, all of Hurricane, W.Va.; Shannon Morris of Dixie, W.Va.; Jess McMullan and Chris Young, both of Fayetteville, W.Va.; and Tillman N. Mooney of Lookout, W.Va.
Mooney was airlifted to Johnson City, Tenn. Medical Center, but the rest were transported by ambulance to Wythe County Community Hospital for treatment of non-life threatening injuries.
State Police and sheriff's officers from Wythe and Bland counties immediately began a search for the suspect based on a description and license plate number provided by witnesses.
Sparkman was arrested after police received a report of a suspicious person at a truck stop and discovered her was the person being sought in the hit-and-run.
The investigation continues.
Anyone with information about the whereabouts of the pickup truck or other information about Sunday night's incident on I-77 is asked to contact the Wytheville Division of Virginia State Police at (276) 228-3131 or email the Wythe Area Office at email@example.com.

quote:Originally posted by ScorereaderI don't know about this whole McDonald's Buffet thing being all THAT bad.Let's face it, breakfast at the local diner isn't all that healthy either. And, lets look at McDonald's breakfast items...bagels (not jewish bagels, but still bagels), eggs, pancakes, "english" muffins, ham, sausage (like any sausage is all that good for you), bacon (ditto with the sausage.)These are all regular breakfast buffet stuff. I mean...is there something there that is so much healthier at another diner?I want to make it clear, however, that I am not saying that we should all go to McDonald's for breakfast, but...if they had a buffet, I might be tempted to try it once -especially if they had real plates.
quote:Originally posted by ScorereaderI used to like the McMuffins, but agree that they're pretty bland now.As far as the breakfast burrito, I guess I was lucky, I never had a dried out one...of, course, I always put hot picante sauce on them.In fact, I was so happy when they added the breakfast burrito BECAUSE of the hot picante sauce.Now, let me be clear that I'm not a fan of fast food...usually... but the #2 meal at McD's was 2 cheese burgers and fries w/drink. This is what I used the hot picante sauce for. When I drenched on the hot picante sauce, the burgers became quite palatable.Most McD's around me do not serve breakfast burritos, so I pretty much steer clear of McD's unless for some odd reason I have a big mac attach...which usually comes right before the big heart attack, which isn't really a heart attack at all, but indigestion. ugh!
quote:Originally posted by ScorereaderGarry,not sure how "regional" breakfast burritos were. I had them in Upstate, NY ('cuse, Rochacha, Watertown) and in the Piedmont Triad of NC (G'boro, Winston-Salem, High Point)Here in DC, it's hit or miss. Usually a miss.But, it may have something to do with the # of hispanic people in the region...although, that wouldn't explain why it was available in upstate, NY...hmmmMichelle - maybe WI was the test market for the fruit and walnut salad! With fruit on the buffet menu, I might even be able to pursuade my wife to go to a McD's breakfast buffet...maybeBut G, you're right, the donuts was definately one of those regional things. Probably like the "pizza", which I understand was in many regions, but it never really took hold where I lived in NY or NC...probably for different reasons in those regions.In NY,...well...pizza at McDonald's? no, really....fugetabotit!In NC...well...I'm not sure they know what pizza is! "what's this Eye-talian pie anyways?"The most "regional" thing I've ever had was a lobster roll at a McD's in Wilmington, MA. It even had a whole claw on top!I'm not sure what regional item you could add to McD's here in DC...maybe put some bay seasoning on the fries.But that's for a new thread - I think I'll start one.
quote:Originally posted by Michelle WiedemannHAHAHA V, yes alas it is true. We have 2 mcd's here in our town and both offer the buffet....pretty yummy for the kids, read the other comments, the food is pretty good for a family:) I would however prefer a nicer breakfast but, with little ones they love their pancakes
quote:Originally posted by AdjudicatorI've never seen nor heard of anything like that, either. A breakfast buffet, or a buffet of any kind at any FFR would be gross (aka KFC buffet, of which I have heard of but never seen...) ...And of course the infamous Pizza Hut lunch buffet...

SAP's Plattner to Keep $9.4 Billion Stake in Gates Pledge
Hasso Plattner, the co-founder and chairman of SAP AG (SAP), the world's largest maker of business management software, said that he would donate all of the assets in his foundation to Bill Gates's Giving Pledge.
Plattner made the statement yesterday after the German newspapers Bild and Tagesspiegel published reports that denied the 69-year-old had made the pledge. The two publications quoted Plattner as saying that Gates had been trying for years to get him to join the initiative, although he wouldn't let himself be "pressured."
"I am happy to be a member of the Giving Pledge," Plattner said. "In this role I will leverage the entire capital of my foundation with its focus on education, culture, and health in the spirit of the worldwide aspirations of The Giving Pledge."
As a condition to joining the pledge, the German billionaire won't give up any of his 10 percent interest in the software company he co-founded with former International Business Machines Corp. employees in 1972, according to Daniel Reinhardt, a spokesman for Walldorf, Germany-based SAP. His stake in the company is worth 7.1 billion euros ($9.4 billion), according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
First German
Members of the Giving Pledge, whose co-founders include Warren Buffett, typically commit to give away at least half of their wealth to charitable organizations and philanthropic causes. Buffett, 82, is the fourth-richest person on the planet with a net worth of $53.8 billion, according to the index. Gates, 57, ranks second and has a fortune of $66.2 billion. Plattner was initiated yesterday, according to a statement on the Giving Pledge's website.
"The Giving Pledge is a commitment to give the majority of one's wealth to philanthropy either in one's lifetime or in one's will," Bridgitt Arnold, a spokeswoman for the Bellevue, Washington-based Giving Pledge, said in an e-mailed statement. Plattner is the first German billionaire to join the pledge.
SAP shares have gained 21 percent over the past 12 months. They slipped 0.8 percent to 59.49 euros, valuing the software maker at 73 billion euros. Plattner has a net worth of $10.9 billion, making him the 99th-richest person, according to the index.
"As long as I live, I won't donate more than 50 percent of my shareholding in SAP," Plattner was quoted by Bild as saying. "I am responsible for the company that I co-founded, and I can only be responsible if I have control -- that means owning the shares."

While Ramona school district workers and administrators held their annual back-to-school convocation in the performing arts center at Olive Peirce Middle School last Thursday morning, a Ramona businessman and five of his employees were working next door trimming and cutting trees — at no cost to
the district.
"I feel I have to give back to the community," said Sal Hernandez, owner of Sal Hernandez Tree Service and a Ramona resident for 18 years.
Hernandez's business donated about 16 hours of labor and equipment to the back-to-school project that included trimming trees at Ramona High School and Olive Peirce Middle School and removing trees that have died. The estimated value of the work is $1,800.
While Hernandez provided the work at no cost to the school district, he had to pay his five employees. Because the work was for the schools, the employees said they'd donate 30 percent of their labor, said Hernandez.
As a Ramona resident and a contractor who does business in Ramona, including with the school district, "I'm obligated to donate to them," said Hernandez, "and the high school is a good place to donate...I take from the community and with that I feel I should give back."
Hernandez, a former policeman who found his passion is trees, worked a variety of jobs at the high school for about 9-1/2 years. His son is a freshman at RHS this year, so, he said, "you're going to see my butt here for the next four years."
Even if the school had a lot of money, Hernandez said he'd donate to the district.
"Imagine if all the contractors helped all the nonprofit organizations," he said. "...There are things in life that money doesn't fix. There are things that you have to do in life. The money is not the price. To donate makes me happy."

sles11sp1 system freeze (cpu mem disk all idle)
We have 600 suse servers, and there are system freeze occured some times, just 1 or 2 servers freeze at a time.
When the server freeze, I can not ssh to it , and can not login using monitor(all is freeze)
Then, I create a screen session for every server. When I found a server freeze, I opened the screen session, then found some times I can run command in the session.
command such as 'vmstat', 'uptime', 'iostat' ,'cat', 'ls' usually can run, but very little time hang.
top command may hang some times.
if I use pipe, the the session will hang 100%.
I have check cpu , mem , disk io, also the file in /proc/sys/fs/ such as file-nr, but they were all idle .
So I think there maybe a io lock occured in the kernel, but I can not find it

Sometimes I Just Know
I'm a perfectly rational person - I've studied psychology, I'm training to be a teacher, I'm catholic, but I know things. Its not like seeing, more like searching and knowing. If I want to know an outcome I search my mind, I get two kinds of responses - a feeling of dead certainty which means yes whatever it is will happen or a vague excited feeling which means no - or there are other possibilities to explore.
Of course it doesn't always work, especially if is to do with me, but if it is about someone else I am nearly always right. Sometimes I don't get to choose, I remember one night when I was young I just KNEW one of grandparents was going to die, I prayed and begged and pleaded and wept that night and the next day my grandfather had an aneurysm (he'd been perfectly healthy before) and he died on my birthday a few days later.
Sometimes I do dream things, I dreamt my grandmothers death, I actually saw Princess Diana's death and was shocked and frightened.
Some days I get an awful feeling and I know something is going to happen, and there is nothing I can do but wait.
A blessing and a curse, but its me - a part of me, although there have been times when I''ve wished I've never known.

I know what you mean but ive never seen it in dreams mine are just like nerves
my dear you are definitely not alone, I had a dream our president, Obama in a dark room sitting in a chair sadden and stressed out ,rubbing his chin, the next day Paris had problems, this I kid you not. another example of my happenings I call it, was I and my mate was driving to a place unfamiliar, I started feel anxiety and a hurt sorrow feeling, it got stronger and stronger, it was just such great pain and sorrow ,that I actually was feeling short of breath had to get out of the car ,it was so intense tears running down my eyes, my mate noticed, yellow ribs of three people who died in the twin tower attack, a block away was a cemetery. I dream of things that came true, many I never truly no what a lot of it meant until it happened, some that were good things ,but unfortunately most weren't. why this happens to us I really feel were just connected, few are chosen or maybe just born that way are perhaps just sensitive to those things we just don't have an answer for, I just accept it and consider myself some one has a gift to do what a lot of others cannot , if you want to make some out of it ,there are people that can help you understand it more, and how to use it to actually help others, believe or not, good luck my dear.
Me too!!!! Wow!. I'm not crazy. I do the same thing with looking into myself! I get two feelings yes or no.
I was in the hospital for a severe condition and I saw the nurse come in and tell everyone about my weight and how it is normal for my size. I just couldn't say anything because of the drugs they had me on. Then she came in five minutes later and said just that. Looked like here and everything.
Then I could hear or sense the doctors thoughts. One was worried about home life...one thought I was very beautiful and the woman nurse was very nice. She hated and like her job. That was about as strong as I could remember.
Now, they come very frequently. About three times a day. Its scary. I think something is wrong with me and I don't know what. My friends and I played a game. They would flip over a card...I had to say the color or number. They all were kind of scared of me afterwards. Except one friend. She is from Africa...she said there were people from her land that did that and if they touched people like me...they would get married or pregnant or something. Idk.
I think its related to our parents! I've been doing research about it for a long time and Everyone who experience it like me has someone in their family who know things before they happen as well. I think we all should make a group or so and share our research results there because I think it is more important than we think.
I know before someone is going to die or something is going to happen. I know that is crazy but I send text messages to my friends like what is wrong then they freak out how I understand something is wrong. I just tell them I feel like something is wrong or they annoy me with their bad energy.
and sometimes I dream of the thing that are going to happen sometimes they Just pop into my mind as a picture and I lost my contact with the world for a few secs and then this happens soon or later. I had problems in elementary school for not paying attention to lessons and losing myself in thoughts.. and it is really nice to know that I'm not alone
Me too! I did it to one of my friends he was like....what?! How'd you know?! Lol
smile about what you have ,a specialty that's a blessing. your connection to feel ,dream and to know is not meant for every one, consider just how special you are, and it is real ,you I and some others know this, it was passed down to you, and not everybody understand it ,and do not matter. you get to know it better, its not going anywhere, so please just embrace what passed down to you, and its normal ,not abnormal to special people like us.
please don't worry about who understand about your gift, the ability to connect. the ability comes from beyond, and some one I believe had the ability too who was related, or even here before and live in you, don't be scared or confused. I experience a lot of things, so do my daughter, I some times ask her to slow it down, and not to tell very one is not going to understand it as you do, a lot of people are skeptics, please don't let any one make you feel like a freak or you or a bad energy, your not your just have a strong connection to things they cant understand or just refuse to. Usually your sensitivity to things beyond just connect. I found it was passed down to me from my grand mother she was born with a veil over her eyes as they call it ,some kind of whiten in the eyes and she also was born with a lot of white hair, I've never seen it black ,by the time I was born it was totally white, and she was a person who can relate and see things and one who was able to see, she was a very godly person, going on to be a very respected person, but she would only express these connection among family members that believed and understood it all. since my grand mother passed on my abilities to connect is even stronger. her death one year today, and she connected me to you and one other. I wanna say to you maybe you should relate with those who understands and wont be little you and never understand your gift, believe me its not going anywhere and believe your special ,not bad energy or losing you mind, there is people like you and Godly. good luck my dear with you gift
Since i was 3 i have known things, felt things, seen things. Certain soft sciences call people like this 'highly sensitive' other neuro/bio psychology arenas study this in silence because there are science fiction sounding implications. I do not know what it is. The lonely feeling is i am a human lie detector. No one can lie to me and i also then know when a person is sad, mean, evil, hurt etc or whatever. I am blind to love or i never felt it. Sadly im not sure which. I know when someone is genuinely kind but love is white space in my emotional make up. I believe it is due to this "gift". I have met one person in real life who is like me. So existence is solitary. People live in ignorance as the norm. Being like this is isolating and exhausting at times.
Iam actually happy to see Iam not the only one o honestly wish that i would not have this feelings of things happening Its not knew to me but lately is tearing me apart specially because i know that i cant count on anyone they might think Iam crazy! But the latest visión that i had was of suicide a women jumping off a bridge near my home and then i saw another bridge that would be the best to jump! I saw this about 1 week ago! And today i saw in the News that a women jump off one of the bridges near my house! I feel like i couldve prevented this but noone would believed me! I just wish i would stop seeing all of this is a ******* curse!
things like this happens to me too..it like the idea born in my mind in one sec and in the next it happens
This has been happening to me sense summer. August 2014. I feel like it's god. He tells me things the day before they happen or when I wake up and sure enough it happens. It's freaking me out lol everything I have sensed has happened.
Im glad..i not alone but in my case I could sense major events. .last october I saw a transparent picture in my mind..im seeing a comet in the outerspace..and then right now it happened. .that onceIin million years comet
Add a response...
its the same for me.... Sometimes i dream it and sometimes i just know something is gonna happen... Ive been like this since a young age and it scared me... It still scares me... Knowing that something is gonna happen but the worst thing is not being able to control it... It just happens... I am the same way when it comes to when it happens... Sometimes its back to back other times i can go for years without anything happening... Its nice to know that im not alone
This is very similar to me. I feel like its unreal even tho I know that it is. Studying psychology myself as well. I sometimes dream about things that happen, almost exactly like in my dream. Sometimes I just know. Literally I just know what's going to happen either in the next minute or it could be the next day etc... Sometimes I get scared because I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad, and also because I just can't controll it. Sometimes these things happen continuosly and sometimes nothing really happens for years. Sometimes I just get a feeling something good or bad will happen but nothing more. Sometime ill literaly get the emotions. I might feel sad and depressed and acctually cry but I don't know the reason, only to find out later on somethin bad happened. I also believe you can attract things, so sometimes I think maybe its not that I knew it but rather attracted it, however I can't apply this to when I acctualy know what exactly is going to happen. My latest 'experiment' is that usually the things I know will happen I keep to myself and I don't tell anyone untill it acctually happens. This time I have a strong feeling of a certain thing happening and I've told my friend, now I will just wait and see if it will happen or not. It won't help me much coz if it doesn't happen I cnt know for sure if it wudhave if I kept it to myself but I still want to see... I just feel like I'm crazy sometimes, if I do have something going on with me I'd like to controll it! But it just comes to me :/ I wonder if it could be just something that everyone feels sometimes, or if this is considered as having some kind of 'powers' as in something that not everyone has.
its not about being able to see the future. I have more of a knowing things will happen without any doubt. and sometimes I get those thoughts but if I get any little bit of doubt it doesn't happen.. never fails
I cAn relate to everything you said I still don't understand mines started off when I was young too around the time of my brother death I seen an dark shadow of an man figure he was tall and wore all black now that I'm older things haven't changed people say I'm crayzee because I hear voices or seeing things before it happened or having bad feelings about something and it comes true sometimes in my dream this maybe embarrassing to write I need some confirmation on why is this happening to me it's hard for me to explain hopefully I end up with answers
You are not crazy....I can relate. There are a lot of us, out here who are just like you. I even asked God, to take this away. If it is evil...I still have my Gifts, Now that, i'm older. I recognize that. You are special. Not everyone can say that.:)
I am experiencing some weird stuff too. Since around august things have been happening after I sense them. It's very uncomfortable. Some woukd think it's a gift but it dislike it. I sensed a ticket. 3 days later I got one. I sensed a car accident 2 weeks later got one. I sensed little things as well and they happen. I say god tells me these things cause I beleive in him and have no other explanation. Idk of I am rambling but I am in same boat
Yes, there are a good many of us out there. I've dreamed of two bad car accidents involving close friends or family. I was supposed to be on one of those trips, I refused to go and tried to talk the others from going.
There is a school of thought that those of us who have had near death experiences, are blessed with enhanced abilities like premonition.
You are not alone. I feel really sad and tears start to flow when I know something is going to happen. The feeling can last from 10min up to an hour. I don't know what or who but some one either comes close to death or dies with in 2 weeks of my feeling. These are usually friends or loved ones I know. My father gets those same feelings. I always try to tell my family so they know.
I am glad to hear that I am not alone, when I was younger. I quite often just. " knew" when something was going to happen always involving a family member or someone very close to my family, I might see. Something, or a word will come to my mind or I will get what I call a funny feeling. I am at a stage in my life now where I want to find out more, how to develop whatever it is, can anyone help me please
to the guy who says its evil, i dont understand why. im a Christian too, and i dont think its evil. we can tell little glimpses of the future, it sounds to me a little like the prophets. im not claiming to be a prophet, but im just saying i dont think its evil.<br />
back on topic, i have this, though not as severe as most of you. for example, just now i was playing team fortress 2. a medic came up next to me, and i KNEW he was a spy. like, not a hunch, not "maybe he's a spy", but i knew he was one. he was. it was completely different from having a hunch confirmed, it was more like i had my ability confirmed, yet again. these little deja vu moments usually happen to me a lot around any time something important, goo or bad, happens to me.
btw - the guy was the man who built n ran the place till he died there - and the little girl was there visiting and she was playing with a ball and it went into a pond in the back and she drownd......
my sister in law likes to "use" me as a science experiment when she wants to do "spooky" stuff ...example - she wanted to go to some hospital ( i knew nothing about what she was talking about i was in the other room ) i told her about a little girl that died there and it was an accident and a man that walks around kinda wandering not really wanting to leave - she is shocked n walks in the room and is like omg!!! r u serious ....lets go - we go and i KNOW how to get there where to turn its pitch black in the middle of nowhere - i see it as if its daytime like nothing right - i dont understand how it works i kinda just go with it - BUT it scares me bc i KNOW something is there watching me trying to get me to do things i DO NOT want to do and it sits and waits ,,,,, toying with me - every once in a while itll show a few sec - like a shapeshifter,,,,, a kid one time a man another --- animals small fast .....i tell it its not welcome but it stays and follows me anyways ,,,,i dont like NOT having any answers or getting the run around whenever i try to get more info on it all ........idk but yeah - i understand how you guys feel.
You really feel this way too?
i have had this gift/curse since i can remember as well. i have the dreams, the deja-vu, the being able to feel what others feel by touch, the visions, hearing things before and during they were happening. i believe that it is GODS gift to us no matter how scarry it is to us. i have had five dreams of "the end" apocalypse and it scares me to pieces, i have had this awake and asleep. each time starting where it left off. i have seen my grandfather, my grandmother, three of my best friends and the list goes on die before they died. my children have this as well and strong as well as the rest of my family, just the women though, we i find very odd. are there any men who have been known with thisor it just us? anyway i too pray and pray and pray. i have signs, do any of you get signs? like all day everything will be sevens or i will ask in prayer for a answer to a important question and i will get mess on my answer machine or billboards or txt or tv really odd. i am hoping someone else gets this. and that it is a good thing not some bad thing. or do any of you have knowledge of things that you know you couldnt know or have learned? or do you you heal really fast, way faster and better than most? need to know if i am cursed or blessed. i hope and prey that this is a gift of GOD.
Strong sense of women's intuition
There are times that I want something to happen; I wish something specific would happen. Then weeks or months go by and it happens unexpectedly. Its not all the time but more times to be considered a coincidence. I can't explain it and maybe I don't want to know why!? The closest thing I can think of is the laws of attraction. Obviously this is different from what you have but it's not that far off. I guess some things are left to the unexplained.

I get the feeling that I can tell what people are going to say like a deja-vu but it don't feel like it a get real paranoid and scared cause of this I have to Change my phone background image all the time cause it feels like I've had it on there before I even put the image on can someone help its freaking me out. I don't want to tell any of my family I don't want them to think I'm going crazy. Should I see a therapist
I just want to understand... I don't want it gone completely. I just want to know when or how to shut it off. OH and most of these things are bad. OR what I consider bad. Sorry for all the talking. I just want you to understand so you could help me. I can always predict when tests or quizzes will be and I can understand people and their simple actions and their character to the extremes.
please, do you know or have figured anything about this, besides just dealing. I want to know how to control it. I dont know how. I can only shut it off by not thinking about anything. What triggers it? WHat can shut it off. For you anyways. I need help
Another example: I was thinking about this boy who I went 2 pre-school with--random-- and 3 weeks later he came back to school after 9 years. I thought about an old friend this year and she came back to school after 4 years. I thought about WHAT IF the neighbors dogs got out and killed all our chickens. Got home. Chickens dead with bloodied mouthed neighbor dog. WHAT IF we hit 2 deer on way to eastern Oregon. Hit 2 deer hour later. WHAT IF my friends got in a crash ( they were late and not yet to the dance where I waited for them) Came later because they hit a deer. I mean deer think coincidence- full moons-- but theres more. WHAT IF minks came back again like they did 5 years ago. NEWS--200 minks at a mink farm were set free by my house. WHAT if the new neighbors shot my best friend since birth's dog. Maggie was shot with BB gun. Theres been so much more. Help me. what triggers it. I have been using oils-young life oils that help balance a body natural aura. I don't dream or anything when I use them b4 bed. or my thinking.
For example I need my bestfriend since birth was gonna tell me something important and then I though WHAT IF ( key word to everything of my issue) she decided she liked girls, or WHAT IF she told me shes sucuidal. She had never shone any signs of anything like this. random. That day she told me both. Month later I was getting ready for school and thought " mabey I should txt her, somethings wrong" WHAT IF she hurt herself. (I was planning on telling her mom that day about her) and then my mom told me 2day she was in the hospital for overdoes on advil. self- inflicted. She has seriures and I predict most. I want to tell her about this but It always goes away when I tell someone, and probably will because of this right here.
I need answers or someone to talk to. I have always had deja-vu to the extreme and recently when I turned 15 in june this year things have gotten werid. I can count over 40 events that have happened. I think things and they happen. Totally random outta wack things and they happen. I thought mabey it was me doing this so I stopped thinking or trying not to think of life at all, and it has stopped for a few weeks. Whenever I tell someone of this or acknowledge it IT goes away for months. I have dreams of things that would happen and told a BFF and then It went away for 3 years. I'm afraid It will do this again and make me feel I am imagining it all over again. Is there any thing that triggers it, or stops it in general. Help I feel like its just in my head.
Deja-vu has happened to me all my life. My mother has it bad to, but it has been this year I have noticed things. I will think of something, completely random and later they happen. It has been every other few weeks, but has stopped. This year it different I have never experienced this to this extreme. I think things and they will happen. I got scared and thought possibly it was because I thought these things so I stopped thinking about life as much as possible. And now I havn't have this happen in a while. I can recall about 40 events like this that have started since I turned 15 this year in june. I don't know to do anything, but nothing. Is there anything we can do that triggers it or stops it? In my younger years I would have phases of when I could dream things and they would come true and when I though things. I told myself I just wanted to be cool and was imgaining it, but now I'm not. Whenever I have told my friends about this or even come to the conclusion of this IT goes away for months. Y is this? Ever happen to anyone else? I need help.. no one knows how. I just want answers or someone 2 talk to

yes i totally understand i usually know when something is going to happen or something has been said. I use to know when my sister was gonna have a seizure.. The day she passed i dreamed it while it was happening..it was thee most sadest day of my life..
I have this and I don't want it. It scares me to death. I see only bad things and usaually in re occurring dreams. They are usually about girlfriends but sometimes about myself and more often than not in precise detail. One of my worst nightmares just came true and it blew my mind and shocked me so bad I couldn't believe it myself. I am Christian and I have been warned about these visions, that they are evil. People don't believe me. Sometimes I don't either. Like I said, I don't want this curse.
I know, over half the things I think and then happen are bad.
I don't believe it's a curse. But I only have feelings and know when bad things will happen too. And I prayed to god for a gift when I was younger and got it so I don't believe it's bad.. but I also have so much deja vu about just random stuff
I believe that these messages come our way to help others by prayer. We can not change the outcome we can change how we react to these matters in a more positive way. But I believe such knowledge is given to us because people need our prayers. Learn how to pray for these individuals whether you know them or not. It is a Christian duty of charity. When I see unfamiliar faces presented before me interiorly I pray for them. When I see a beautiful scenery as if in a movie but I am fully present to it. I thank God for this gift because I would never of been able to view it otherwise. Sometimes I think that is a gift given from one I have prayed for. I know we all want answers and we all want to understand and harness such abilities. But we can't we must trust in God and not allow worry to estinguish the work of God's Holy Spirit. Sometimes a relative who has passed may send an insight to help you through a death. You never know unless The I JUST KNOW I just knew that before it was spoken by someone close to you I believe is reading someone's mind. There is so much I could say but what I really want to say is Don't worry Just Pray. I find that when I say even just One Our Father I am given peace from God. Don't dwell on these things there is really nothing you can do but Pray. If you know someone might pass away soon. You could remind them that it might be good to go to confession for the removal of their sins or ask a priest to give them the final blessing. I am Catholic and this is so important. Just pray otherwise. Can't say it enough. Also say a prayer for yourself for understanding these gifts.
I just passed through to this sight, I don't know but angryt what u posted is EXACTLY what I go through everyday almost, whatever abilities I have goes a step further. I know it sounds weird but I felt Michael Jackson's death 2 months before it happened. 2 weeks before one of my family members died I knew I was going to be hurt some kind of way, an emotional pain. I can have someone touch me and whatever they are going through I can feel those emotions. Last night some guy was so angry that it shook me up so bad because I felt a rage inside of him I've never felt in someone. Sometimes I don't like the gift, I've had it for years and still not used to it. I dream all the time, I don't believe I'm psychic because I'm not. It just seems so much because I'm scared to hug people at times or even bump them because I dont know what I might pick up. It's been like this for me since I can remember and I'm 21 now
I am 17 and for the last couple of years i have had the same experiences. I think it is because i am still a member of youth that my "feelings" or "dreams" are more focused on my life. But the really important ones that i always remember are the ones that have the people i care about involved.
I am 25 now and i use to be scared of knowing things befor they happen. but not anymore i believe its a gift from GOD and we are messengers.
I have the samething iv had it since i was 12 years old.
I have seen and known things my whole life. I know for me growing up, I sometimes felt crazy, until something happened to confirm to other people what I had said. My father is very psychically inclined as well. For me, I wish he had tried to help me understand better what it was that I was dealing with. I am now 25, with 2 young children, and have only recently gotten a decent grasp on the whole thing. To nikinnick: I personally don't think it would be a bad thing to try to help her understand. I do think it can be passed on to our children stronger, just judging from my own experiences. What I do with my kids when they experience something is try to draw on my experiences to help them understand. I hope you don't mind my suggestion, but you may be able to talk it out with her, get the details, and try to take steps to make sure her dad takes more caution while driving. I have actually had to do stuff like that. I hope that everything works out for the best.
I have always called it my feeling deep in my gut. Only a few people in my life understand or believe me when I tell stories of things that have happened. My concern is I strongly believe my 6 yr daughter has the same feelings but are stronger than mine. They are coming more often an she had one this morning and it scared her to tears. She said that it was her dad and there was a car and he was going fast. What has me SO upset is she is going to spend the weekend with him and it is about a 2 1/2 hour interstate drive just the 2 of them. she is more often right than wrong. My question is can this 'feeling" or whatever anyone chooses to call it ;) be passed to our children an be stronger? How do I explain or should I let her figure out this "gift" on her own?
I know when things are going to happen like tonight when i was driving i heard lots of sirens i slowed down and was looking in mirrors but nothing was there . I asked my husband where are they coming from he said he didn't hear a thing .20 min later there was a horrible accident on Stockton hill. yesterday i saw a sheriff car drive down highway with his lights on,and i knew instantly my daughters boyfriend got into an accident. I ran inside house and turned our scanner on sure enough it was him luckily all that happened was a deer jumped out in the road which landed him into a ditch. a few months ago i was driving down the road going to the store and a voice in my head said Jaye is dying (a healthy woman) she was dead 2 days later. stuff like this has been happening since i can remember.
Wow I know this exact feeling. I know what people are thinking sometimes or more like what they are feeling and not saying. I have had dreams that have come true. My instincts about people seem to be heightened. I have a tendacy to be able to connect with people to where they just trust me so deeply even at first meeting. I am extremely emotional even sensitive I feel like this has a lot to do with it. I have bits of deja vu all the time, once I realize it what I saw or thought i knew would happen changes. but it is so very familiar. I feel like I deny myself so much, I don't trust that Knowing, It is so hard for me to believe in this. It never works to my immediate benifit. I guess because I'm always doubting it. I have become a bit of a loner these days I feel relieved to know that there are people who have had simular experience. I wish I knew more about this and were not so afraid of it.
I know what your saying, I'm 14 and mine only come in dreams or if I'm just in class and I'll blank out for about 5 or 10 min, only reason why it's so long is because in my ' visions' I like to go back and look at the situation. I agree it can scare the mess of ya haha
I am 15. This has been happening to me for almost 10 years now. I am very confused by this, and it is starting to scare me because these feelings are getting more serious about important things and people. I need help. Any advice?
I'm going crazy!
I'm going crazy!
Im twelve and this happens to me. At first I thought I was a freak so I seperated myself from my peers. I have always been different, but this...<br />
you are not going crazy, i too have had the the same experiences since I was a child some scary and some 100% positive. My advise is when you have these experiences just approach the the day slowly then you will see it when it comes and not caught up in the whirlwind of spinning conversations. I too thought I may be going crazy but am still learning to deal with it.
Hey My name is Vicky, <br />
well i once made a Dream and it came true but usually i dont dream about something that comes But that one time i did i Dreamed about tornados that were destroying my hole town and in my dream me and my family were the dream i should say the dream was so reality and when i woke up wow i was very scared. Then i got up and went upstairs and the news were on and somewhat i knew that there was going to be something on the news about tornados and there it was on the news previews and pictures of tornados that destroyed a hole town and many peoples were kill and all that. Just like in my dream Freaky i know. Ok something ales i can do is I can know things before they happen sometimes i get a Vision or feeling or i think about the person or the persons name and then something with what and who i was thinking about happens. I also hear my name sometimes when im in the shower not supper loud its almost like if someone was trying to like talk to me sometimes its kinda like a whisper or a little louder. Also i sometimes hear music in the night when there is none playing and i something wear voices in the night when there no nobody talking but i cant completely understand what there saying because there voice isn't clear. I also sometimes have a feeling that something will go wrong or something will happen to me and then i ignore it and it happens. so now i know that when i was a vision or a kind of sensation i need to watch out and listen to it. Well Please tell me if anyone does the same things as me. To be honest i am something freaked out and i sometimes think im crazy.
A couple years ago, I went to the beach with my family. I was sitting in a room with my mother. I suddenly felt this would be the last time she would be alive to come to beach with our family. I was upset that I was even thinking that. I just looked at her and wondered, why was I thinking about that at such a wonderful time. Then I suddenly got the urge that we needed to enjoy the rest of the trip as much as possible. My husband had to get back to work, but for some reason I felt it was very important that I stay at the beach with my mother and stay the whole visit. We had such a wonderful time on this vacation.<br />
Some time passed 8 months or so and I didn't think as much about the feelings I had at the beach trip.<br />
I was at a meeting one afternoon. All the sudden I became overwhelmed with worry and concern for my mother. I called her and noone answered, called my husband, sister, noone was answering their phone. I told the others I had to leave the meeting. I got back into town, and my mother answered the phone, I asked her if anything was wrong. She said she was fine. I wondered if she was lying so I wouldn't be concerned. My feelings were telling me to be very concerned. Four days later she died and there was nothing the doctors could do to save her.
Hi I TOO HAVE AN UNCONTROLLABLE ABILITY TOO SEE THINGS BEFORE THEY HAPPEN. I AM SO GLAD I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE AS I THOUGHT I MAY BE GOING NUTS.
i USED TOO THINK THAT I AM CURSED BUT WHEN I LOOK BACK NONE OF THE THOUGHTS I HAD EVER DONE ANY HARM, I WAS SCARED DUE TO WHAT I SAW BUT IN REALITY THEY HAVE SERVED ME WELL. i STILL GET SCARED FROM THE THOUGHTS AS SOME ARE VERY VERY DEEP NOT EVEN THE MOST IMAGINITIVE WRITER COULD COME UP WITH. i HOPE THAT ALL OF US WHO EXPERIENCE THESE THINGS WILL ONE DAY UNDERSTAND WHY WE WERE GIVEN THIS ABILITY
Wow, that's really amazing. I think that sometimes you can change some things, but it has to be a certain way. I have been able to change some things that I've seen. Perhaps the way you get things, you have to learn what your role in all of this is? I am really interested in getting to know more about you! :) But, don't feel as though you are responsible for anything you are seeing. You are being given a gift, you just haven't figured out your role in it yet, or maybe your role is just a "messenger," like a friend of mine...to pass it on, and maybe help someone gain peace that way? IDK, but don't fret. I think you will figure it all out one day. *hugs*
that is a real blessing i think u could help people with your talent :)

Meredith Melling Burke And Valerie Boster Unveil Their Post-Vogue Project, La Marque
Remember when the fashion set was positively in a tizzy in September because prominent Vogue alums, Meredith Melling Burke and Valerie Boster, were departing from the glossy to pursuit a mystery project? Well, it turns out the duo are starting up their own consultancy agency, called La Marque, according to WWD. They've taken on four clients to start, including Andrew Rosen's Theory label, French bridal and evening brand Delphine Manivet, the swimwear label Cover and Edition01. With no permanent office space or staff to count on, Burke and Boster do have a combined 26 years of experience at Vogue and a contact list that reads like a who's who of the industry. While the duo's ambitions to step out on their own sound pretty grand, they have no intentions of crossing Anna Wintour: they promise that when they decamped from Condé Nast, La Marque was only a concept. Intriguing!

WASHINGTON — Newly released documents from her days as an aide to former President Bill Clinton portray Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan as a person of strong opinions and sometimes overtly liberal views, but above all a pragmatist who pursued middle-ground solutions on issues ranging from abortion to taking on the tobacco industry.
There's little in the papers that suggests Kagan, the solicitor general whom President Barack Obama named to succeed Justice John Paul Stevens, would stray far from Stevens' perch on the left of the political spectrum.
In 46,500 pages of notes and memos from her time as a domestic policy adviser to Clinton, Kagan argues in favor of a veto of a late-term abortion ban, for strong gun control measures and against a federal law prohibiting assisted suicide.
But she tempers much of her advice with strong notes of political and legal practicality, often opting for a middle course likely to produce results without unduly angering opponents.
The William J. Clinton Presidential Library released the documents Friday, responding to a request from the Senate Judiciary Committee, which is scheduled to hold Kagan's confirmation hearings starting June 28. They were the first installment in a 160,000-page trove that senators have been eager to peruse.
The documents were from her time as deputy director of the Domestic Policy Council, where she served from 1997 to 1999.
The White House cautioned against reading the files as an indication of Kagan's views. "The documents reflect Elena Kagan's efforts to advance President Clinton's well-established policy agenda, and they should not be interpreted as an outline of her personal positions on specific policy issues," said Ben LaBolt, a White House spokesman.
Conservatives said the papers sharpen their concerns about whether Kagan could be impartial. "The documents show a politically savvy Kagan, and bring to the fore the question of whether she would be able to set aside her deeply ingrained political instincts to evenhandedly apply the law," said Carrie Severino of the Judicial Crisis Network.

Cardiogoniometry (CGM) for Early Diagnosis of Acute Coronary Syndromes (ACS) (CGM@ACS)
- Full Text View

- No Study Results Posted
- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
Aims of the study:
Patients in a Chest Pain Unit (CPU) are examined to clarify if the cause of pain is cardiac or not. To identify patients with ST-elevation and other electrocardiogram (ECG) modifications a normal 12-lead ECG is used. The diagnosis non-st-elevation myocardial infarction is determined with the help of the ischemic marker Troponin. However, Troponin levels are elevated earliest 3 to 4 hours after the ischemic event, so that a negative Troponin result at the time of hospital admission is insufficient. Thus the guidelines of the German Society of Cardiology demand a second measurement after 6 to 12 hours. In rare cases false positive Troponin levels have been reported (e.g. in patients with renal insufficiency).
The aim of this study is to determine if in the early phase of diagnostic assessment cardiogoniometry can improve differentiation between patients with cardiac (ischemic) emergency and patients with non-cardiac (non-ischemic) cause of pain. Furthermore it will be evaluated if cardiogoniometry is capable to diagnose patients with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) to the same extent as Troponin. This could avoid time loss until a possibly necessary catheter intervention ("fast track").
To clarify these questions the result of the cardiogoniometry will be compared with the leading diagnosis of the Chest Pain Unit, the diagnosis at hospital discharge as well as with the angiographic findings (as a gold standard). Therefore the performance of cardiac catheterization within 72 hours after start of symptoms is a mandatory inclusion criterion.

If you happened to be at the High Noon Saloon at 8 p.m. on Wednesday night, you may or may not have expected several things. Swinging guitars? Yes. Chest-thumping drums? Most definitely. Bass so sick it hums the floor? Why not? Electric tunes that you can feel in the very air around you? Maybe, if you're into that sort of thing.
Being a first time visitor to The High Noon and a first time listener and attendant of a Generationals show, I have to count myself among those who expected none of what is listed above. And being one of the few to come so early to the famous western-themed bar, I wondered if I could have been in the wrong place.
I had heard of Generationals before, and in fact, had several friends suggest that I review them. When I entered the Saloon, the most I knew about them was that the New Orleans-based duo enjoys significant notoriety in the world of indie rock, having several of their singles featured on ads and TV shows, and receiving plenty of critical acclaim from everyone to Pitchfork Media to SXSW reviewers.
Grabbing a drink and biding my time for their arrival turned out to be a very brief experience, for when the Brooklyn-based band Devin took the stage to open the show, within minutes the bar was empty and everyone was literally bouncing on their heels to the classically rough guitar riffs.
Although the band itself is nothing less than impressive, the character of namesake Devin Therriault was definitely the jewel of the group, embodying the ideal guitar hero in every way imaginable. The emerging indie band entreated the audience to the underground single "Masochist," a rough fabric of rip-roaring guitar and energetic vocals that contained a humorous degree of delicious passive-aggressiveness.
Though Devin left the audience sufficiently hot for Generationals, they were nothing compared to the performance of the lead band. The strange, geometric fixtures hiding in the stage background of the effervescently lit stage sprung to life as Ted Joyner and Grant Widmer took their guitars to the stage and demonstrated to the rest of us what being 'one with the music' looks like.
"When they Fight, They Fight" was a particular blast for me, being particular to percussion and more subtle beats, but at first I thought it odd that they would begin with the softer and less-animated song that preceded it. But looking around and noticing the rapidly growing crowd that accumulated in the bar, I got the feeling that something extraordinary was about to arise.
Progressing through increasingly exciting songs, the first climax of the band's reception definitely came about when they played their new single, "Nobody Could Change Your Mind," which sounded to my ears as a beautiful throwback to the hippie-era indie rock, enticing the audience to sing along to the titular phrase of the single.
At 11 p.m., one of the Generationals duo took the mic and said with skillful sarcasm, "I think we're gonna end it here … because I know you all have to study, or some party to go to, or weed to smoke," but to an ecstatic audience, the band found themselves playing an encore until midnight, and leaving with nothing less than a smile across everyone's face.
Needless to say, though I cynically walked in expecting nothing more than another band to review, I am eating my words as I download the newest Generationals album, "Lucky Numbers," and am jamming out while contemplating the delight of destroyed assumptions once again.
