I love the magazine and I love the fact that you tell us what product is good and where to find it. I take no meds yet but am afraid to take any of the supplements. How do I know if they will work and are they safe? I know you will suggest going to your doctor. Unless the doctor is an alternative doctor there is no way any doctor I know will recommend any of this. They aren't schooled in this.They would not recommend anything much from this magazine. We are on a our own. Any suggestions?
I would love for you guys to do an in depth article on women who have special needs children and CAN NOT get the sleep they need for successful weight loss. I am a fitness professional and I have first hand knowledge of this issue and I know there are a lot of your readers who would benefit from a well written and well researched article on what can help them with their sleep issues and weight. Every issue has great ideas for those who suffer from something that can be corrected with diet and supplements but when a person had chronic sleep deprivation it makes it really, really hard to loose the weight even if your diet is right on point and you are physically active. I for one would love to see this written.
I have been reading First for Women since the first issue and I absolutely love it. Would not miss an issue, keep looking for the new one. Many years ago an article with pictures about skin cancer prompted me to go to the doctor to check it out, and it very likely saved my life. I also like that I don't have to skip pages and pages of advertisements about drugs. Thank you!
Just finished reading my first of FIRST. I'm impressed. From recipes and smart food solutions to 10 uses for salt and your first aww... page, relax and play to last laugh, etc., etc.. How refreshing, I'm looking forward to the next issue. Such a wide variety of interesting subjects and helpful reading material is rare in one issue of modern magazines. Thank you.
Great articles on walking. Not only is it a wonderful physical exercise but also a great mental retreat. Articles are informative and to the point. Have used walking and variations to recover from total hip replacement surgery. Appreciate your emphasis on mind/body connection

A special landing of a Chinook helicopter on Friday, November 11, Veterans Day, at Morley Park will be part of activities to honor all veterans. But it came about because a resident wanted to honor his younger brother—2nd Lt. Jack Price—a Cedar Springs man killed 42 years ago, at the age of 28, while taking a Chinook helicopter on a test flight in South Vietnam.
Wayne Price and his younger brother Jack grew up on Cedar Springs Avenue. They were the sons of Frank and Beatrice Price. Wayne enlisted in the Air Force and served from 1955-1959. Jack, who was seven years younger, left school before graduation and enlisted in the Army before Wayne came home.
Jack made a career out of the Army and became a family man. He married his high school sweetheart Darlene, and had three children—Dawn, Jack Jr., and Jeff. Jack did two tours in Viet Nam, and had been in 10 years when tragedy struck.
He had what would have been considered a safe desk job. Jack was a maintenance officer in charge of 120 men and 16 Chinook helicopters on his base. But he also took them for routine test flights. On July 16, 1969, Jack took one of the helicopters on a test flight with six other crewmembers. According to a letter written by his commanding officer, Major Harold Zumbro, the helicopter was on its final approach (not too low) about 300 feet in the air, when it first nosed up, then immediately nosed down, heading straight for the ground. The nose of the aircraft hit first and then fell on its back and exploded. All seven men were killed.
The news was devastating to his family.
Jack's wife and children still live in the area. Jack Jr. and Jeff both followed in their father's footsteps and served in the Army.
Wayne has spent many hours researching what happened to his brother, and met several soldiers who served with him. One of those contacts led him to a Chinook instructor pilot, Timothy Miller, based at the Selfridge Army National Guard Base in Michigan. Through both the pilot's efforts and Burn's request to the Pentagon, the Chinook helicopter will land at 11:00 a.m. at the field located adjacent to Morley Park in downtown Cedar Springs. It will be on display for the general public following the landing.
"I want this event to pay honor to all those who gave their lives for our country, to those who have served and to all those now serving to keep our country free," said Wayne Price. "I understandably also want this event to pay special honor to my brother Jack. It's been 42 years since his death and I miss what could have been."
Price and his wife June, along with Jack's widow, Darlene and members from the American Legion Post 287, the Cedar Springs High School Band, the Cedar Springs' Ministerial Association, the Cedar Springs Historical Society and Dan Brown, uncle of fallen Cedar Springs soldier Timothy Brown, formed the Cedar Springs Veteran's Memorial Remembrance Committee. They have coordinated events to take place November 11.
Events to take place following the landing of the helicopter at 11:00 a.m. feature a special military display at the Cedar Springs Historical Museum from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. as well as a memorial remembrance service at Veteran's Memorial Park at 1:00 p.m., including a prelude by the Cedar Springs High School Band; an invocation, an Armistice Day History, guest speaker Tom Noreen, U.S. Army Colonel, a firing squad and benediction.

In an interview with CBS about the difficulty of maintaining proper family nutrition/your sanity when you have a hectic schedule, First Lady Michelle Obama proves her point when she refers to herself as a "busy single mother." It's so difficult that sometimes you forget important details like the fact that you're still married! Of course, she recovers gracefully and says, "Sometimes when you've got the husband who's President, it can feel a little single, but he's there."
With her schedule, I'm surprised she can even speak in coherent sentences. It's a testament to how much she has her shit together that she can even get out of bed in the morning. If I were the FLOTUS, my entire day would consist of rolling out of bed at 2pm and crawling to the White House kitchen to request my morning hot fudge sundae. I'd say, "My morning hot fudge sundae, jeeves!"
Anyway, the FLOTUS. She's just like us. (Except she has a better jacket.)

NASHVILLE, April 20 (UPI) -- Gerbils infected with H. pylori -- the ulcer-causing bacterium -- given a high-salt diet were linked to increased risk of gastric cancer, U.S. researchers say.
Timothy L. Cover and colleagues of Vanderbilt University in Nashville infected Mongolian gerbils with H. pylori. One set received a regular diet; the other, a high-salt diet. At the end of the experiment the researchers analyzed the animals' stomach tissues.
The study, published in the journal Infection and Immunity, found every animal on the high-salt diet developed cancer, compared with just 58 percent of those on the regular diet.
However, the researchers said it appeared development of gastric cancer required the presence of a particular bacterial oncoprotein, known as CagA, which is produced by H. pylori.
Gastric cancer did not develop in animals on the high salt diet that were infected with a mutant H. pylori which did not produce CagA.
The investigators also detected significantly higher levels of gastric inflammation in H. pylori-infected gerbils on a high-salt diet than in those on a regular diet, a finding relevant to many types of cancer, Cover said.
At least 50 percent of humans are infected with H. pylori, at least 90 percent of them without symptoms, Cover said.
The study is scheduled to be published in the June issue of Infection and Immunity.

June 2012 by far ... is my busiest and luckiest month...
My sister and her hubby were here for a visit. They were excited and anxious too as this was their first time ever travelling overseas. I knew that feeling too well...yes... that took me back to the time when it was my first time stepping into the plane... butterflies in my stomach were making somersault.
Excited ~ I was the first in my family to be given the opportunity to see and experience the "Western World..."
Anxiety ~ I was raised in a non- English speaking community...I had no confidence in conversing 100 percent English... without my Manglish of 'lah-s, ma-s and alamak-s'...
It was a relief to see them emerging from the "otherside" through the sliding door... a little bit dazed, tired and sleepy but NO drama with either Immigrations or Customs. So their holiday began... and so was I, busy, trying to win the 'Hostess with the Mostess of the Year' award
Lady Luck is with me this month...grinning from ear to ear...
Luck 1~ my Red Bean Ice-Cream photo came 3rd place in the 'Overall Winner' category in DMBLGIT May 2012
Luck 2~ In my "nearly half a century" life... I was lucky once and won a colour TV set in a Lucky Dip, and that 'luck', was 'borrowed' from my unborn son... yes, I was heavily pregnant with my 1st born. Nothing before and nothing after that...despite countless giveaways I participated... until June 2012.
I just couldn't believe my eyes when I saw my name printed in Denise's Singapore Shiok.... I just won her funky red Mom's Not Cooking cookbook!!!

Revision as of 01:13, December 13, 2008
The year link was copied from the filioque article--should that link likewise be removed? --magda 15:25, 7 Feb 2005 (CST)
- Yep. I don't think we're likely to have enough articles here for a particular year that would justify a year having its own article. (The Filioque article also needs some serious work.) --Rdr. Andrew 15:34, 7 Feb 2005 (CST)
This is a major article. I suspect it will be under development for some time. A couple notes for the moment:
- I remember being taught (in a Roman Catholic University) that the "Great Schism" was when there was one pope in Avignon and another in Rome. This usage is worthy of a mention, for the sake of clarity.
- I'm not sure how deeply we should jump into the details of the debates about, e.g. the Filioque here - these things should be referred to separate pages for all the nitty gritty details. I do think we need to discuss or survey some of the many different ways of constructing the schism. It's not an easy thing to pin down: Charlemage? 1056? 1204? etc. We should discuss different evaluations of what was primary, and so on. I think that kind of perspective would be most useful here, rather than a simple repeat of, e.g., what's in Bishop Kallistos' The Orthodox Church. Other thoughts? Fr. John
The idea that I'm going to do with this article is to give a general overview on some of the issues surrounding the G.E.S. So in a sense the structure is the same as Bishop Kallistos' The Orthodox Church. But in the section on when exactly did it occur, I will try to talk about what issues were important. This can also continue into the other sections afterward (the attempts to reconcile and the continuing progress/regress). It's going to be a huge undertaking (in addition to my thesis) but I think it can be done. I'll continue to tweak it here and there as time goes on and I may end up with something different. I hope that clarifies some things. -Fedya
- Sounds good, thanks! Fr. John
Peace and goodwill. I'm a Latin Catholic; I stumbled across this website a while ago and found it interesting in helping answer a couple of the questions I have about the Eastern Orthodox Church. I would just like to comment (as a guest of this forum) on this article. I appreciate the Great Eastern Schism is a complicated event that will take a while to describe properly in a wiki article. As it stands currently however this really is one-sided. I would suggest that the Filioque issue has been really overplayed (for instance, ask an Eastern Rite Catholic what they think of this) in the context of the 1054 schism; in the context of the schism following Florence it obviously becomes important but in a different way than that presented, this needs to be all explained. But what I am worried about is that not a single of the many Eastern-stemming reasons for the split is mentioned - eg, the trial of Pope Formosus, the iconoclastic schism, Monothelitism, the Photian schism (though this is an issue of some tenderness between us I know). All up I can tell you that Westerns have a pretty different view of this history than is presented here. With the ultimate aim of the reunion of the Eastern and Western Churches in mind I think a truly balanced account of why we are separated, with respect to both parties, is needed to be understood by all first. Making out that it's all our fault is not true and will not help. Thanks for reading - good luck with it and God grant we may be one Church again, it's about time! Christ be with you. Daniel--Seperatedbrother 14:42, December 10, 2008 (UTC)
Major rewrite needed
I'd suggest grabbing the text from w:East-West Schism and adapting where needed. —Fr. Andrew talk contribs (THINK!) 14:30, December 11, 2008 (UTC)
- Agree, although some of that article is contentious. W:user:Lima is causing some trouble there with frequent reverts, re-edits, and non-collaborative single-minded behaviour. Chrisg 14:37, December 11, 2008 (UTC)
- I am not an expert on writing "Encyclopedically" however i am good at reading and understanding and it is my personal opinion that the way this article is WORDED is like it is a "Media response" rather than an encyclopedic/neutral tone ... its almost like the person is offended and needs to tell you why ... An example is the following:
- Additionally offensive to the Orthodox" was that the Creed was changed without agreement of the whole Christian Church. The Creed had been agreed upon at an Ecumenical Council and revised at another, bearing universal authority within the Church.
- For the Pope of Rome to change the Creed unilaterally without reference to an Ecumenical Council was highly offensive to the other four patriarchates and to all the Eastern bishops, as it undermined the collegiality of the episcopacy. It demeaned all the other bishops.
- "Additionally offensive" ... "highly offensive" ... "undermind" ..."demeaned" - Like Oh My Gosssshh ...really! Perhaps, if this article was stripped of "emotive" adjectives and reduced to BASE FACTS ..then a bottom up approach could be adopted in the writing style rather than this editing war that is starting to prevail between ChrisG and Jay? ... Vasiliki 02:14, December 12, 2008 (UTC)
Neither "formerly" nor "formally"
A change was made that said: "AD 1054 is the date formerly given for the split between East and West." If "formerly" is meant, it is wrong in that many still give that date. It it was a typo and "formally" was meant, that is wrong, too, as it wasn't finally accomplished for two centuries. --Fr Lev 01:52, December 12, 2008 (UTC)
Merge and new base
The two articles are now merged but need much more editing. For the next 3 weeks I'll be in an area where there is no electricity, phone, or internet, so regrettably will not be able to assist with the continuing edits needed. Chrisg 01:13, December 13, 2008 (UTC)

"Our sovereignty has been taken away by the European Court of Justice…Our courts must no longer enforce our national laws. They must enforce Community law…No longer is European law an incoming tide flowing up the estuaries of England. It is now like a tidal wave bringing down our sea walls and flowing inland over our fields and houses—to the dismay of all."
— Alfred Denning, Baron Denning
Introduction to The European Court of Justice: Judges or Policy Makers? (London: Bruges Group, 1990).
"To some this may appear to be a small matter, but to Mr. Harry Hook, it is very important. He is a street trader in the Barnsley Market. He has been trading there for some six years without any complaint being made against him; but, nevertheless, he has now been banned from trading in the market for life. All because of a trifling incident. On Wednesday, October 16, 1974, the market was closed at 5:30. So were all the lavatories, or 'toilets' as they are now called. They were locked up. Three quarters of an hour later, at 6:20, Harry Hook had an urgent call of nature. He wanted to relieve himself. He went into a side street near the market and there made water, or 'urinated' as it is now said. No one was about except one or two employees of the council, who were cleaning up. They rebuked him. He said: 'I can do it here if I like'. They reported him to a security officer who came up. The security officer reprimanded Harry Hook. We are not told the words used by the security officer. I expect they were in language which street traders understand. Harry Hook made an appropriate reply. Again, we are not told the actual words, but it is not difficult to guess. I expect it was an emphatic version of 'You be off'. At any rate, the security officer described them as words of abuse. Touchstone would say that the security officer gave the 'reproof valiant' and Harry Hook gave the 'counter-check quarrelsome'; As You Like It, Act V, Scene IV. On Thursday morning the security officer reported the incident. The market manager thought it was a serious matter. So he saw Mr. Hook the next day, Friday, October 18. Mr. Hook admitted it and said he was sorry for what had happened. The market manager was not satisfied to leave it there. He reported the incident to the chairman of the amenity services committee of the Council. He says that the chairman agreed that 'staff should be protected from such abuse."
— Alfred Denning, Baron Denning
That very day the market manager wrote a letter to Mr. Hook, banning him from trading in the market.

"The Treaty [of Rome] does not touch any of the matters which concern solely England and the people in it. These are still governed by English law. They are not affected by the Treaty. But when we come to matters with a European element, the Treaty is like an incoming tide. It flows into the estuaries and up the rivers. It cannot be held back, Parliament has decreed that the Treaty is henceforward to be part of our law. It is equal in force to any statute."
— Alfred Denning, Baron Denning
H.P. Bulmer Ltd v J. Bollinger SA [1974] Ch 401 at 418.
"The statute in section 3(1) contains a definition of a "racial group". It means a "group of persons defined by reference to colour, race, nationality or ethnic or national origins." That definition is very carefully framed. Most interesting is that it does not include religion or politics or culture. You can discriminate for or against Roman Catholics as much as you like without being in breach of the law. You can discriminate for or against Communists as much as you please, without being in breach of the law. You can discriminate for or against the "hippies" as much as you like, without being in breach of the law. But you must not discriminate against a man because of his colour or of his race or of his nationality, or of "his ethnic or national origins." … You must remember that it is perfectly lawful to discriminate against groups of people to whom you object - so long as they are not a racial group. You can discriminate against the Moonies or the Skinheads or any other group which you dislike or to which you take objection. No matter whether your objection to them is reasonable or unreasonable, you can discriminate against them - without being in breach of the law.'}}"
— Alfred Denning, Baron Denning
Denning judged in the Court of Appeal at the time, and held that Sikhs were not a racial or ethnic group. His ruling was overturned in the House of Lords, notably by Ian Fraser, Baron Fraser of Tullybelton, who outlined seven points by which ethno-religious groups were to be defined.
"In 1977 the black-out was lifted. It was done by R. S. C., Ord. 53. The curtains were drawn back. The light was let in. Our administrative law became well-organised and comprehensive. It enabled the High Court to review the decisions of all inferior courts and tribunals and to quash them when they went wrong. And what is more, it enabled the High Court to award damages and grant declarations. No longer is it necessary to bring an ordinary action to obtain damages or declarations. It can all be done by judicial review. This new remedy (by judicial review) has made the old remedy (by action at law) superfluous."
— Alfred Denning, Baron Denning
O'Reilly v. Mackman, [1983] 2 A.C. 238.
"In summertime village cricket is a delight to everyone. Nearly every village has its own cricket field where the young men play and the old men watch. In the village of Lintz in the County of Durham they have their own ground, where they have played these last 70 years. They tend it well. The wicket area is well rolled and mown. The outfield is kept short. It has a good clubhouse for the players and seats for the onlookers. The village team plays there on Saturdays and Sundays. They belong to a league, competing with the neighbouring villages. On other evenings they practice while the light lasts. Yet now after these 70 years a judge of the High Court has ordered that they must not play anymore. He has issued an injunction to stop them. He has done it at the instance of a newcomer who is no lover of cricket. This newcomer has built, or has had built for him, a house on the edge of the cricket ground which four years ago was a field where cattle grazed. The animals did not mind the cricket, but now this adjoining field has been turned into a housing estate. The newcomer bought one of the houses on the edge of the cricket field. No doubt the open space was a selling point. Now he complains that when a batsman hits a six the ball has been known to land in his garden or on or near his house. His wife has got so upset about it that they always go out at weekends. They do not go into the garden when cricket is being played. They say that this is intolerable. So they asked the judge to stop the cricket being played. And the judge, much against his will, has felt that he must order the cricket to be stopped: with the consequence, I suppose, that the Lintz Cricket Club will disappear. The cricket ground will be turned to some other use. I expect for houses or a factory. The young men will turn to other things instead of cricket. The whole village will be much poorer. And all this because of a newcomer who has just bought a house there next to the cricket ground."

Miller v. Jackson [1977] QB 966 at 976.
"Old Peter Beswick was a coal merchant in Eccles, Lancashire. He had no business premises. All he had was a lorry, scales, and weights. He used to take the lorry to the yard of the National Coal Board, where he bagged coal and took it round to his customers in the neighbourhood. His nephew, John Joseph Beswick, helped him in his business. In March 1962, old Peter Beswick and his wife were both over 70. He had had his leg amputated and was not in good health. The nephew was anxious to get hold of the business before the old man died. So they went to a solicitor, Mr. Ashcroft, who drew up an agreement for them."

"In 1966 there was a Scripture Rally in Trafalgar Square. A widower, Mr. Honick, went to it. He was about 63. A widow, Mrs. Rawnsley, also went. She was about 60. He went up to her and introduced himself. He was not much to look at. "He looked like a tramp," she said. "He has been picking up fag ends." They got on well enough, however, to exchange addresses. His was 36 Queen's Road, Waltham Cross, Hertfordshire. Hers was 74 Downton Avenue, Streatham Hill, London, S. W.2. Next day he went to her house with a gift for her. It was a rose wrapped in a newspaper. Afterwards their friendship grew apace. She was sorry for him, she said. She smartened him up with better clothes. She had him to meals. She went to his house: he went to hers. They wrote to one another in terms of endearment. We were not shown the letters, but counsel described them as love letters."

Southam v Smout [1964] 1 QB 308 at 320.
Denning was quoting William Pitt, 1st Earl of Chatham
"At one time there was a black-out of any development of administrative law. The curtains were drawn across to prevent the light coming in. The remedy of certiorari was hedged about with all sorts of technical limitations. It did not give a remedy when inferior tribunals went wrong, but only when they went outside their jurisdiction altogether. The black-out started in 1841 with Reg. v. Bolton (1841) 1 Q. B. 66 and became darkest in 1922, Rex v. Nat Bell Liquors Ltd. [1922] 2 A. C. 128. It was not relieved until 1952, Rex v. Northumberland Compensation Appeal Tribunal, Ex parte Shaw [1952] 1 K. B. 338. Whilst the darkness still prevailed, we let in some light by means of a declaration. The most notable cases were Barnard v. National Dock Labour Board [1953] 2 Q. B. 18 and Anisminic Ltd. v. Foreign Compensation Commission [1969] 2 A. C. 147. I sat in the preliminary hearings of both of them. We allowed each of those cases to go forward. It was because otherwise persons would be without a remedy for an injustice: see Barnard v. National Dock Labour Board [1953] 2 Q. B. 18, 43 and the Anisminic case [1969] 2 A. C. 147, 231B-C In effect it was only by leave that the action for a declaration was allowed to proceed."

Southam v Smout [1964] 1 QB 308 at 320.
Denning was quoting William Pitt, 1st Earl of Chatham
"So there was Mr. Jarvis, in the second week, in this hotel with no house party at all, and no one could speak English, except himself. He was very disappointed, too, with the skiing. […] There were no ordinary length skis. There were only mini-skis about 3 ft. long. So he did not get his skiing as he wanted to. […] He did not have the nice Swiss cakes which he was hoping for. The only cakes for tea were potato crisps and little dry nut cakes. The yodler evening consisted of one man from the locality who came in his working clothes for a little while, and sang four or five songs very quickly. […] Mr. Jarvis has only a fortnight's holiday in the year. He books it far ahead, and looks forward to it all that time. He ought to be compensated for the loss of it."
— Alfred Denning, Baron Denning
Jarvis v. Swans Tours Ltd. [1973] Q.B. 233 (C.A).
"There are many things in life more worth while than money. One of these things is to be brought up in this our England, which is still "the envy of less happier lands". I do not believe it is for the benefit of children to be uprooted from England and transported to another country simply to avoid tax… Many a child has been ruined by being given too much. The avoidance of tax may be lawful, but it is not yet a virtue."

Fayette's school enrollment stayed fairly steady from a year ago, showing a net loss of just three students.
Last year's extra-small kindergarten class grew by three students to 22 first graders, but still remains the smallest class in the district. It's only two students smaller than the fourth grade that shrunk by two students from a year ago.
The biggest drop in the elementary school is shown in the sixth grade that decreased from 34 to 30 since last year.
This year's kindergarten class of 43 is more than double last year's unusually small 19.
The total high school enrollment grew by five despite showing a net loss of nine students from last year's classes. The difference is that a graduating class of 36 was replaced by the big seventh grade class of 52. That class is the only one in the 50s.
This year's sophomore class experienced the biggest change of any, falling by six from a year ago when they were freshmen.
"Open enrollment continues to hurt us," said Lacy Stambaugh, who handles enrollment documentation for the district. "We have 35 students who open enroll out to other schools while only 19 open enroll in."
Fayette has 25 students enrolled in preschool this year, down from 33 a year ago.
Although the class is still affiliated with the Northwest Ohio Community Action Center, students are housed in the Fayette building this year rather than in Pulaski.
Stambaugh sees this as an advantage in helping students grow accustomed to the building before they start kindergarten next year.
Preschool fees are based on family income.

How is a player suppoed to "earn" his icetime if he never gets real icetime with some of the better players? Playing on the 3rd or 4th line will hardly give a rookie a chance since guys on those lines are not usually the most skilled players. I am not saying to take an 18 year old rookie and put him instantly on the 1st line either.coco_canuck wrote:I think that hypothetical assumption fits your narrative more than anything.Reefer2 wrote: Sure it does but AV has to give him a chance to play bigger minutes. If both Booth and Kesler was playing right now I highly doubt Kassian will be getting to play with the Twins.
AV gets a bad wrap for not playing youngsters, but it's about them being able to handle those minutes. Considering that Kassian is primed due to having played so much AHL hockey, chances are he'd still get a look in the top 6 because Booth would likely be struggling just as much as the other forwards who haven't had much game action.
Like I said, Kassian has been playing well, and that's why he moved up to the top line during the Oilers game and got more ice-time last night. Novel concept, this making young players earn their ice-time thing.
So your assumption is that is Booth/Kesler was playing right now Kassian would be given a chance to play in the top 6?

Larry Ellison's Plan to Put Oracle in the Center of the Cloud
Last week, after disappointing shareholders with sales that fell short of expectations, Oracle CEO Larry Ellison promised to make some "startling" news this week.
The news, he said, would involve the cloud, and some important partners including Microsoft and Salesforce.com, companies with whom Oracle and Ellison have feuded in the past.
Time was that Oracle was a traditional software company. Its customers bought licenses for Oracle database software and business applications, installed them on computers they owned and paid Oracle support fees to keep them humming along.
But in the last several years, how software is delivered has changed fundamentally. The biggest example of this is Salesforce.com, run by former Oracle executive and Ellison acolyte Marc Benioff. Its customers pay monthly subscription fees to use Salesforce's software that customers access from a Web browser, and which is installed on machines in data centers that only Salesforce employees ever touch.
On this front, Salesforce and Oracle are competitors. The primary Salesforce application is for customer-relationship management, or CRM — that's Salesforce's ticker symbol — and Oracle has a CRM application, too. For that matter, so does their mutual rival, the German software giant SAP. At a run rate of about $4 billion a year, Salesforce is the biggest company delivering cloud-based applications, also known as "software-as-a-service." In terms of SAAS applications, Oracle is No. 2 behind Salesforce, in part by virtue of acquisitions of companies like Taleo and Eloqua.
Today, Oracle president Mark Hurd is expected to make some announcements with Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer that will have some Oracle tools showing up on Microsoft's cloud service, known as Azure. Other expected announcements include Salesforce and NetSuite, the cloud-based business software company in which Ellison is a major investor.
It may or may not involve any of them using Oracle's latest database product, known as 12C — the C is for "cloud." That would be considered a huge win for Oracle. We'll know more about the specifics — and how "startling" the news really is — later today.

Billions of dollars are spent each year on all types of weight loss methods that simply don't work. After trying all types of diets, weight loss supplements, and exercise routines, many people finally resort to risky invasive procedures to have fat removed from their trouble spots. Now, trained practitioners at the CoolSculpting have a better alternative that is safer, more effective, and affordable.
CoolSculpting is an FDA-approved procedure that freezes fat that diet and exercise can't get to. The system targets fat cells to give the body a more contoured appearance that helps clients look and feel their best without the risk of invasive procedures. Areas where CoolSculpting is effective include:
- Chin
- Arms
- Back
- Thighs
- Knees
- Abdomen
- Hips
- Buttocks
The CoolSculpting process allows the technician to target fat cells in the area where weight loss is desired without affecting the cells surrounding it. Clients who take CoolSculpting treatment will usually have to make two or sometimes three appointments at the CoolSculpting clinic over time to achieve maximum results. Freezing the cells causes them to be eliminated naturally and permanently for long-lasting results.
Even after successful weight loss, many people find it impossible to eliminate those last few pounds of fat in their problem areas no matter what they try. CoolSculpting eliminates those pounds and gives the person the confidence they can't achieve through other methods. The CoolSculpting clinic will work with each plan to create an individualized plan that meets their needs and helps them achieve their specific goals. Best of all, this is accomplished through a non-invasive procedure that is guaranteed to produce results.
Great results from CoolSculpting start with a consultation at the CoolSculpting clinic. The professional team at the clinic will provide answers to any questions and develop a custom plan to help the client reach their goals. With summer just a few weeks away, there has never been a better time to finally get rid of those trouble spots.

Alexander Skarsgard is now apparently the top runner to take the lead in "The Crow" remake. Please update your t-shirts accordingly, Hot Topics of the world.
I'm not the least bit ashamed that I am petrified of Eric Bana. Olivia Munn not so much. But the two of them together will leave me feeling just fine when they hit the big screen on January 16, 2015 in "Beware the Night". The film is Scott Derrickson's follow up to "Sinister" and follows a New York cop who investigating real life demon possessions, exorcisms and werewolves after dark. So that's just shy of two years away. Get pumped kids.
"The Town That Dreaded Sundown", a remake of the 1976 film with the same name, has found it's leading youngster in the form of newcomer Travis Tope. Tope will plat a high school student who lives in a town that is tormented by a serial killer. He's never done anything before. I have no ammo here. Well played Hollywood.
Rob Zombie was miserable making the "Halloween" remakes, he wanted to make "The Blob" remake dark and gritty and he actually paid some poor company to have "Freebird" in a movie of his. That and other exciting news in this new interview.
blah blah new horror TV series blah blah. This one is going to be on Starz though, so there might be some actual gore showing up here. It's called "Da Vinci's Demons" and it focuses on the code maker himself and his struggle with good and evil. Oh and he's a genius. And oh this doesn't sound like it's going to be bloody at all. Michael J. Bassett of "Silent Hill: Revelation" fame(?) will direct.
I don't even know what this means anymore but there's been so much crap around the "World War Z" movie that I thought I should mention it. Apparently the rough cut of the film is clocking in at only 52 minutes long. Alright I kind of know what that means. It means there was only 52 minutes of usable footage after what I think has been about 7 years of filming. There's apparently only 7 weeks left so I assume they're just going to set up a camera in Brad Pitt's shower and tack on 45 minutes of him using a loofah to the project. I'll watch it.
Call me crazy but I actually want to see "Jurassic Park" in 3D when it's thrust back into theaters. Go ahead, call me crazy! Well it looks like my wait won't be as long as originally planned because the re-release has been pushed up 3 months to April 5, 2013. I think if I keep hoping enough they'll push it up to this weekend and then I can go right now. Do it. Come on movie people do this one thing for me!
Alexander Skarsgard trapped in a bomb shelter. Sounds dreamy doesn't it? The film is called "Hidden" and it has officially begun production in Vancouver. The film is about a family who spends 301 days down in a bomb shelter while the world above goes to hell. I've had dreams that start like this.
Sometimes I lie awake at night worried about Andrea Riseborough. She's so pale and looks so sickly. Is she ok!? Someone please help her! I might be able to sleep a little better now though since she's been cast opposite Alexander Skarsgard in the new virus outbreak flick "Hidden". The movie focuses on a family who's hiding out in a bomb shelter after a strange virus starts to spread across the land. Please Andrea, use the money from this to get yourself some McNuggets. It may be your only hope.
If you've read "Blood Of Eden" then there's a good chance you're a 14 year old girl. Or you're on some sort of police watch list. Either way I guess you can get your Hello Kitty lunch box ready because Palomar Pictures has picked up the rights to the young adult vampire novel with plans to bring it to the big screen. In all fairness the book sounds a lot darker than the "Twilight" stuff but I'm still going to mock you. I really don't have anything else.
Do you like Frankenstein? Do you like found footage? Do you look vintage German pornography? Then you're going to love "The Reawakening" a new found footage Frankenstein retelling short that will be a part of the upcoming anthology film "V/H/S". Alright the whole German porn thing isn't really a part of this but it really drives site traffic so let's just let that slide.
Excited about the new Judge Dredd flick simply titled "Dredd"? No? What if I was to tell you that the film which is currently set for a late summer release has earned itself a PG-13 rating? Still no!? What if I told you Rob Schneider is in no way attached to the film. Alright now I got you a little bit right?

Teaching Kids Electronics, Computers, and Programming Fundamentals with Snap Circuits
I'm not particularly interested in my kids being programmers or computer people. I'd rather they be interested in life and totally geeked about something. If that's computers, fine. If that's ballet, also fine.
That said, I think if they are going to be effective users (If not builders) I think they should have a basic sense of how electronics work.
I bought them a basic set of Snap Circuits, specifically Snap Circuits Jr. SC-100, which is just about US$20 on Amazon.
These are brilliant. Check this picture, as it's worth a thousand words and you'll get its genius immediately.
The 5 year old loves the motor and fan, as well as the speaker and noise makers. The boys have made doorbells, a light-controlled fan, lit-up LEDs and made an AM radio. Here's an Instagram Video of the 5 year old explaining his creation:
The pieces snap onto the grid with little buttons. The pieces are plastic and the wires run through them. They're not extremely resilient, in that they can break, particularly the capacitors, but it's actually nice to be able to see the resistors and other parts exposed through the plastic. It strikes a reasonable balance between being friendly to little hands, being sturdy, and actually working reliably as electronic components.
The 5 year old is no prodigy, to be clear, but he's already getting a general sense of electrical movement. He'll say that the resistors "slow down the electricity" and that the capacitors "store it up." He knows positive and negative, and how to use a multimeter to measure voltage. (I recommend a $10 multimeter as well for debugging your projects.) He's starting to look at doorbells and remote controls differently now, which means these little projects have already achieved my goal in just a few weeks. I anticipate they'll play with them for some months, forget about them, and then rediscover Snap Circuits every few years. These toys are great for a 5 or 6 year old, but even a 12 to 14 year old could totally appreciate them. I'm even running through some of the experiments and using the millimeter to remind myself of long-forgotten concepts.
We quickly outgrew the 30 parts in the Snap Circuits Jr. Even though it has 100 projects, I recommend you get the Snap Circuits SC-300 that has 60 parts and 300 projects, or do what we did and just get the Snap Circuits Extreme SC-750 that has 80+ parts and 750 projects. I like this one because it includes a computer interface (via your microphone jack, so any old computer will work!) as well as a Solar Panel.
The Snap Circuits SC-750 is a bargain at prices like US$75 if you can find it, especially considering how many tablets, Kindles and iPads some kids have.
The next Snap Circuits kids we're considering are either Snap Circuits "Light" that includes LEDs and Fiber Optics, although the 5 year old is pressuring me for the Snap Circuits Robot Rover. It'll likely be the Rover for the holidays around here.
I have no relationship with Snap Circuits, I bought these kits on my own and am reviewing them because they are awesome. If I could invest in Elenco Electronics, I would. The links here are Amazon affiliate links. If you use them, I can buy more Snap Circuits! ;)

Proper lifting during pregnancy
To lift correctly, bend at your knees — not at your waist. Keep your back as straight as possible. Use your leg muscles to stand, keeping the object close to your body.
As your pregnancy progresses, everyday activities such as sitting and standing can become uncomfortable. Remember those short, frequent breaks to combat fatigue? Moving around every few hours also can ease muscle tension and help prevent fluid buildup in your legs and feet. Try these other strategies, too:

November 2, 2004 will go down as the blackest day in U.S. history, the re-election of the very worst president by far in our history. The extent of the damage is too great to calculate immediately, but certain things are already clear.
1). The economy. The hallmark of the Bush administration is ruthless extremism and the most careless irresponsibility. Perhaps nowhere is this more evident than in their ongoing destruction of the world's most important economy. The New York Times printed an op ed about a year ago arguing that the markets were banking on the Democrats coming in to rescue our economy from the trade and account deficits and the looming mountain of unfunded liabilities. Now that such a rescue has been made impossible, and the Bush administration evidently committed to further damage through additional tax cuts, the defunding of social security, and more, it's only a question of time before we experience a dramatic financial collapse. It's social Darwinism at its cruelest and most painful.
2). The Bush administration is led by those who believe that war is bracing, that war is the essence of humanity. Their war fighting mentality dovetails with neocon interest in making the Middle East safe for Israel. Thus we have the war on Iraq which will now be conducted in the most destructive possible manner. The Bush administration is committed to retaining the 14 U.S. military bases there and to keeping any potentially anti -Israel faction from attaining power in Iraq. In other words, they are determined to resist democracy there as well as here. We can expect increased pressure against Iran and Syria and military action against them by the U.S. and/or Israel, and the inevitable fallout from such policies.
3). We can expect a continuation and intensification of the war on civil liberties and the continued war against the democratic process at home. We can expect to see more of Ashcroft's ruthless malevolence –" now on steroids. We've waved good bye to an independent Congress and now we can look forward to an even more supine Supreme Court and federal and states judiciary.
4). There is noting to prevent their continued rape of the environment and their ongoing dismantlement of the New Deal and social justice agenda.
All this comes at a time when we are entering the age of peak oil and the onset of global warming, a moment in history that would require a firm, fair and judicious hand to bring us through a difficult transition. Instead we will have the most extreme, ruthless and irresponsible leadership to drive us into uncharted territory. It's a real question how or if or in what state we will emerge four years from now. November 2nd has threatened the future of the U.S. and the world.
Election Fraud
See Democracy Now 11/3/04 ( www.democracynow.org ) for Greg Palast's theory that voter suppression in Ohio, including the trashing of tens of thousands of registration forms, etc., which he calls the non count of the vote was responsible for Bush's victory in Ohio and his lead in New Mexico. But the non count of votes doesn't account for the exit polling results which led Zogby to predict a Kerry victory by 313 to 213. The exit polling results showed Kerry winning Ohio by 4 points, and by 51-48 in Florida. Presumably the exit polling count voters, not non voters.
What is required is an analysis of the extent of touch screen and other unverifiable voting in Florida and Ohio to see if fraud could account for the disparity of results. I'm not aware of anyone interested or capable of conducting such an investigation.

Decorating and redecorating, be it the professional or amateur kind, is seriously tough business; we hear you designers and homeowners! There are just SO many fabulous furniture options out there, making the decision on even the most basic pieces a difficult task. For instance: the dresser. If you typed "dressers for sale" into your search bar, we guarantee that you would be overwhelmed by the sheer number of types, sizes and styles of dressers that would pop up. Choices, choices! Not to worry, help is at hand. To make picking the perfect dresser easier, here are six different types of dressers to consider.
Campaign Dresser
Styled after military campaign furniture (sneakily packable furniture that featured simple, boxy wood construction, inset hardware, and brass corner caps), campaign dressers are as timeless as can be. Today, campaign dressers have ditched the travel connotations, although they still remain effortlessly chic when it comes to their vibe. Flip through any shelter mag and it's easy to see campaign dressers are beloved by interior designers, who rely on them for everything from adding a dash of sophistication to a kid's room, to adding a lightness to an study that might otherwise be skewing a bit too stuffy. Wood campaign dressers might still be top banana, but more and more it's becoming common to find them in glossy, lacquered painted finishes in vibrant colors like fuchsia, chartreuse, or navy blue. Campaign dressers in textural finishes, be they tweed or raffia are also increasing in popularity. Thanks to their boxy construction, the sky's the limit when it comes to the many finishes a campaign dresser can take!
Federal Dresser
Historically speaking, Federal style furniture is furniture constructed immediately after the Revolutionary war (think late 18th century). It has many unique characteristics, such as straight legs rather than curved legs and usually showcases a rich mahogany finish. One of the most famous examples of Federal style of furniture is the Oval Office Grandfather clock. Federal dressers, in particular, often feature a tall bank of wavy front drawers embellished with oval drawer pulls. This antique dresser can turn a bedroom into a cozy little farmhouse, adding oodles of charm and character to your space. A Federal dresser's impeccable design makes them a staple that will always be in vogue. If you love the style of a Federal dresser but want something a bit updated, check out a model from a contemporary brand like Arhaus or Ethan Allen. Both makers put a modern twist on Federalist furniture that's too fabulous not to love!
Provincial Dresser
If you're done with the urban chic and want to recall the romantic era of yesteryear, the Provincial dresser is the dresser for you. Born out of the provincial nobility's intention to distance themselves from the Parisian style, (which was originally considered to be too urban), The French Provincial style has a fairytale quality. Curvy legs capped in curled feet, wavy drawers fronts, and ornate brass hardware are all keystones of the look. While the majority of vintage French Provincial furniture is brown wood, more and more these pieces are undergoing makeovers and receiving new glossy coats of colored paint. Pastels are common, but increasingly so are bold, vibrant hues like Kelly green and turquoise blue. For those who like to straddle styles, a single piece of bolder colored French Provincial dressers can be paired with more modern furniture fairly easily.
Bombe Dresser
Why is it called a Bombe dresser, you ask? To break it down; Bombé means "curved" in French and this dresser was named after its resemblance to a certain rotund explosive. Thanks to their small size and playful little-teapot vibe, these shapely antique dressers work perfectly as an accent piece in a hallway or entry and will give you a lot of boom for your buck. Traditionally, these dressers aren't very tall, with maybe two or three drawers at the most. Bombe dressers wear color spectacularly well and often showcase elaborate painted scenes on their front, often Chinoiserie in style. Playful, vintage, and oh-so chic, a Bombe dresser is just bomb.
Bamboo Dresser
Why bother to fit in when you can stand out? When you type in "dressers for sale" into your search tab, it pulls up thousands of options. One that you should be zeroing in on, especially if the more colorful dressers pique your interest? Bamboo dressers. From peacock blue to lemony yellow and mint green, if you love color, a Mid-Century Modern Bamboo dresser might be for you. Check out Bamboo experts like Dixie, Henry Link, Ficks Reed and Thomasville on Chairish. In addition to offering an enticing pop of color, there are dozens of other perks to landing a bamboo dresser from one of the above brands: durability, strength, and a variety of styles, to name a few. If you're in the market for a distinctive looking dresser that will wear with grace, put a bamboo beauty on your list.
Danish Dresser
Sometimes timeless and goes-with-anything is where it's at. When that's the case nothing brings it quite like a Danish dresser. A style that originated in the mid 20th Century, Danish dressers are minimal, a touch sculptural, and often crafted of hardwoods like teak and walnut. Thanks to their multitude of drawers and cabinets (the Danish modernists were pros at squeezing in storage space), Danish dressers are ideal for more than just bedrooms, too. Pop one in a dining room as a makeshift buffet, or even use one in an entry, the same way you'd use a credenza or console. Cool stylings make Danish dressers a natural fit just about anywhere. Celebrated designers who created Danish dressers include George Nelson and Paul McCobb. If you're not looking to spend lavishly, don't worry. Find a used Danish dresser for sale. The superior craftsmanship of these dressers will stand the test of time. Whee!

I missed you guys!! We had guests staying with us the last few days, my cousins from Canada. We had such a nice visit.
I always put a little tree in our living room, on this table. This year I went with a real one that I found at the supermarket for $20.
I found this little needlepoint pillow last year at a local antique shop.
Fridays tragedy hit so close to home. We're only 30 mins. from Newtown, Connecticut.
I can't stop thinking about all the families that lost loved ones and those little angels that were taken from this world way too soon! My son's teacher lost her sister-in-law that day, she was one of the teachers at Sandy Hook Elementary. She was married and a mother of four. Please continue to keep these families in your prayers, they need our prayers more then ever!

WASHINGTON (AP) — House Republicans investigating last year's deadly attack in Benghazi, Libya, badgered a former U.N. ambassador and former Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman Thursday over their review of the Obama administration's handling of the matter.
GOP members of the House oversight committee asked why former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and other top administration officials weren't questioned during the inquiry overseen by Thomas Pickering and Adm. Mike Mullen. They chaired an independent panel that reviewed the Sept. 11, 2012, attack, which killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans.
Their report last year harshly criticized the State Department for its security posture in the months before militants stormed the Benghazi facility. But House GOP members said it was incomplete and lacked independence.
Rep. John Mica, R-Fla., called the report by Pickering and Mullen a "whitewash" and asked why Clinton and Tom Donilon, then Obama's national security adviser, weren't interviewed. Pickering said they weren't involved in Benghazi security decisions.
"If the secretary wasn't involved, I must be on another planet," Mica answered.
Rep. Trey Gowdy of South Carolina later asked Mullen if he interviewed President Barack Obama.
Fellow Republican Rep. John Jordan of Ohio accused Mullen of tipping off Clinton's former chief of staff, Cheryl Mills, about the investigation. Rep. Jason Chaffetz argued with Mullen about U.S. or allied military assets that the Utah congressman insisted could have been mobilized during the attack.
"When we bombed Libya for months, we did so in connection with our NATO partners, and you never asked that NATO partners to help and engage," Chaffetz said.
Mullen responded sharply. "I actually commanded NATO forces, and the likelihood that NATO could respond in a situation like that was absolutely zero," he said.
Pickering, who was President George H.W. Bush's U.N. envoy, and Mullen, the top U.S. general under Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama, defended their efforts.
"We had unfettered access to State Department personnel and documents. There were no limitations," Mullen said. "We received the full cooperation of all witnesses and every State Department office. We interviewed everyone we thought it was necessary to interview. We operated independently and were given freedom to pursue the investigation as we deemed necessary."
The hearing with Pickering and Mullen carried on for nearly five hours. After breaking, the panel heard from the father of slain Navy SEAL Tyrone Woods and the mother of Sean Smith, who worked as an information technology specialist when he was killed in Benghazi.
"I still do not know why there was insufficient security when clearly the people on the ground were begging for it," said Pat Smith, who has strongly criticized Clinton and others in the administration. "Why wasn't our military called in to help? That is what the military is for. They didn't even try."
In advance of the hearing, House Democrats released an 80-page report that concluded the U.S. military wasn't ordered to "stand down" during the Benghazi attack — rejecting a claim repeated as recently as Wednesday by several Republican members of the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
Gen. Martin Dempsey, Mullen's successor as top U.S. general, rejected the stand-down claim at a Senate hearing in June. The Republican-led House Armed Services Committee endorsed that position after a classified hearing with other senior officials in July. Mullen rejected the charge as well multiple times Thursday, saying it would have been impossible for any military assets to make it to Benghazi in time to make a difference.
The Democratic report also defended the conduct of Pickering and Mullen.
However, Democrats found significant fault with the State Department for establishing Benghazi as a "temporary post" without the full security of an embassy or consulate. That could provide at least some ammunition for criticism of Clinton as she gears up for a potential presidential run in 2016, given that she would have been involved in approving a U.S. mission in the largely lawless city after Libya's 2011 civil war.
