Here's to next year 30 Dec, 2011
Yes, it's me ;-). Time to break the long silence with an end-of-year post! No exhaustive review (especially given the paucity of posts in the first place), just a simple summary:
- Music
- I loves my music I does, and 2011 was another corking year. Far from the madd(en)ing crowd, there's always plenty of good stuff out there being made and re-discovered. The year started off with my continued rediscovery of Frank Zappa (one of my early music loves), and a special new liking for the 1981 album, You Are What You Is, which is as good an introduction to his music as any I reckon. Album of the year? I have two, both of which came out towards the end of 2011: 50 Words For Snow from my all-time favourite Kate Bush, and Grace For Drowning, a wonderful double album from Steven Wilson. About a month after Wilson's album came out, I got to see him and his band live in London, and will be seeing him again in 2012: an absolutely stunning show—go and see him if you get the chance! Finally, honourable mention again for Kate Bush, this time with her May release (yes, two albums in 2011), Director's Cut.
- Work
- Funny old year. In November 2010 I finished a long-term assignment in London, and decided not to jump back on the contract wagon straight away. Instead I opted for the freelance life for the next eleven months, working on all manner of projects and technologies. This has been absolutely fantastic in many regards: lots of mobile web development, some work with IBM Connections, and so on. There was some XPages action, but 2011 was really the year that Domino dropped off the radar for me, with a lot of Java, PHP, HTML5, Javascript and Ruby instead. I am now working on another contract assignment, this time in MediaCityUK, doing lots of new (and high profile) stuff, which has been a tremendous learning experience thus far.
- This site
- The aforementioned work events have thus left me with a wee dilemma when it comes to this site; I'm not really sure in which direction to take it. Earlier in the year I experimented with some Ruby-themed posts, and also some HTML5 and Javascript how-tos, but neither "series" made much of an impression. I guess I still get a lot of Domino people here maybe ;-) Anyway, I have a back-log of tech stuff to write about, some of which should be of interest to the yellow world, so stay tuned!
Enough navel-gazing. I wish you and yours all the very best for 2012: here's hoping it's better than 2011 for all of us (it's already looking good, as Daniel Lieske has released the next chapter of his Wormworld Saga!)

Manchester aldermen override city tax cap, 2015 budget up 3.99 percentBy TED SIEFER
New Hampshire Union Leader
June 10. 2014 10:24PM
MANCHESTER — The Board of Mayor and Aldermen voted to override the tax cap to adopt a budget for the 2015 fiscal year that represents a 3.99 percent increase over last year's budget.
The vote came at a special meeting Tuesday evening, the deadline for the aldermen to complete a budget for the fiscal year that begins July 1. The vote was 12-2; at least 10 votes were required to override the tax cap, which would have restricted the budget increase to 2.13 percent.
The budget allocates $143.7 million to the city and $159.5 million to the school district, which is the same amount allocated by Mayor Ted Gatsas in the budget he proposed earlier this year and is line with the recommendation of the superintendent.
The budget adopted by the aldermen was drawn up by Ward 1 Alderman Joyce Craig and Ward 3's Pat Long. Much of the money in excess of the tax cap is devoted to filling a shortfall Gatsas intentionally left in his budget. It allocates an additional $2.4 million for health care costs and $2.1 million for severance; both of those items were unfunded in Gatsas' budget.
The budget also devotes another $253,000 for the hiring of five more police officers and $30,000 for the purchase of 600 more blue recycling toters. The budget designates about $1 million in bonding for road repairs.
According to the budget, the combined tax rate will go up 91 cents, to $23.58 per $1,000 of assessed value.
The budget will also be bolstered by increased estimates for total property valuation; additional revenue from vehicle registrations; and new revenue from increased parking enforcement hours and other fee hikes approved by the aldermen.
Craig said the decision to override was not taken lightly.
"We were put in a position where we had no choice but to override the tax cap. But we as a board can't be expected to do this next year,"
she said. "There's got to be a recognition that we need to make significant changes to health insurance, workers' compensation and to Yarger-Decker."
Yarger-Decker is the payment system that sets a schedule of automatic raises for city employees.
The final vote Tuesday came after two recesses, during which the mayor and a group of aldermen met behind closed doors to make modifications to the budget.
The most significant change was to shift $300,000 that had been earmarked for health insurance to contingency, a priority for Gatsas and a contingent of aldermen who had proposed their own budget.
Following the break, Gatsas said he could support the budget in part because it was under a 4 percent increase.
But, he said, "Things have to change; we need to change the way we run city government, and Yarger-Decker is in the forefront."
The two no votes came from Ward 12 Alderman Keith Hirschmann and Alderman-At-Large Joe Kelly Levasseur, who presented their own budget Tuesday that was designed to stay under the tax cap. It was rejected 12-2.
As proposed, their budget would have fully funded the requests of the police, fire and highway departments, while making cuts to other departments, and it would eliminate several vacant positions and cut several line items, such as $5,000 for hot meals for the aldermen in the anteroom at City Hall.
"I prefaced every cut I made with the need to fund public safety," Hirschmann said.
Levasseur said their budget made hard choices because they didn't regard overriding the tax cap as an option.
"It comes down to whether you believe in the tax cap," he said. "If you believe in it, you stay within it."
The aldermen also voted to amend new bonds proposed by the mayor, who wanted more than $900,000 for repairs at City Hall. The Craig-Long budget shifted $668,000 of a $933,000 bond to road repairs. In addition, $319,000 in bonding for fleet maintenance software in the mayor's budget was also shifted to road improvements.
Gatsas vetoed removing the money for City Hall repairs, after department heads noted the roof was leaking in places, the carpet was worn and paint was peeling.
"We build new fire stations, new police stations, a new highway department, and the place people come to that's theirs, City Hall, we don't do anything to since 1998," Gatsas said.
But the aldermen voted to override his veto.
Alderman-At-Large Dan O'Neil said, "I think if we did a poll of the citizens, carpeting City Hall or road repairs, I think we know what they'll say. They're not interested in carpeting at City Hall."

Global Academic Partners
About GAP
Consistent with USF's mission as a globally-engaged research university, the GAP program has established a small number of high impact strategic institutional partnerships. GAP awards give USF faculty an opportunity to work with colleagues at USF's global partner universities to develop common projects that will serve as the foundation for external funding, collaborative teaching, or creative scholarly activities. In 2009, the University identified five GAP universities and these deep and broad relationships with "like" universities have promoted sustainable, interdisciplinary collaborations leading to meaningful impact as well as measurable bilateral (and even multilateral in the case of network development) institutional benefits.
GAP awards are given out bi-annually. Funding for the next round will open 2013-14, read on for project details and instructions on how to apply.
USF GAP Partner Universities
- Nankai University, China
- Ocean University, China
- University of Exeter, United Kingdom
- University of Ghana, Ghana
- University of Cape Coast, Ghana
Award Opportunities
The purpose of GAP awards are to generate collaborative research, scholarly, and/or creative activity with our global partner universities. The expectation is that there will be tangible outcomes such as joint research publications, performances, exhibits, and/or external funding proposals.
The maximum award will be $12,000 with up to $7,000 being funded by USF World together with a contribution of up to $5,000 from the "home" department and/or college.
There are three separate funding opportunities designed to engage a broad range of faculty, staff and students at USF. In the following guidelines we address these three areas more specifically:
The Award for Developing Existing Partnerships
NEW: The Award for New Partnership Opportunities
NEW: The GAP Program Travel Award.
USF's strategic priorities of increasing global literacy and impact, community engagement, integrated interdisciplinary inquiry, research and innovation, and sustainability should be used to guide proposals. The highest priority will be given to applications that are committed to producing external funding proposals to sustain the developing project. Examples might be developing co-taught programs, specific educational research, collaborative research focused on a shared critical issue between USF and a partner university, or designing scholarship intended to address a particular global concern. Proposed projects must involve shared initiatives between USF and a Global Academic Partner institution. Funding may be used for USF faculty to travel to a partner university and to bring a partner to USF to establish research, teaching and/or performance possibilities.
Proposals may include plans to engage graduate and/or undergraduate students in research, scholarly, and/or creative activity
outcomes. In addition, collaborative design and delivery of innovative curriculum proposals are welcomed if proposals (a) offer new and strategically-relevant curriculum and pedagogy and/or (b) expand capacity (e.g. faculty development) at both participating institutions.
Accountability will be assessed by one or more of the following: submission of a joint proposal for external funding (NSF, NIH, NEH, NIMH, etc), mutual publications in academic press, collaboratively designed or delivered curriculum and/or public performance/presentation. All proposals should explain how the initiative will seek longer-term funding to continue the collaboration.

PASS CHRISTIAN, MS (WLOX) - It was a celebration of how people of different faiths can work together for the common good. An interfaith sunrise worship service at Trinity Episcopal Church in Pass Christian recognized the impact that many religious groups have had in hurricane recovery.
Jews, Christians. Muslims and Hare Krishnas were at the sunrise worship service. All believers were welcome.
"That we all serve an awesome God," said Alice Graham, Mississippi Coast Interfaith Disaster Task Force. "We come to that service of God from different faith traditions. We're unified in that we serve a God that calls us all into community."
Religious leaders talked about how much of the credit for Katrina recovery in Mississippi goes to faith based organizations whose volunteers rebuilt houses and lifted spirits.
Lou Rizzardi is a former Pass Christian alderman and volunteer coordinator. "80, 90 percent of the folks that came into town were faith-based organizations," said Rizzardi. "No questions asked. Not asking for anything in return. Just the opportunity to serve and they were so wonderful. I do not think we would have accomplished what we did in the time that we did without their support. "
The worshipers' prayers also thanked God for lessons learned in their despair. For they say times of trouble strengthen their faith.
"To have a service where we really acknowledge the faith-based traditions and how these traditions have been the core of resiliency. That the faith-based traditions have been that resource that has nurtured us," said Graham.
The Mississippi Coast Interfaith Disaster Task Force and the Steps Coalition sponsored the sunrise service. Organizers said they've held the service every year since Katrina.

For the past week students at Central School in Pontiac have been preparing for Friday, which marked the 100th day of school. Throughout the day, students participated in activities centered around the number 100.
"I've been teaching in the district for 21 years and we've held the event every year that I've been here," said Central School first grade teacher Kathy Schulz. "It's something to do in the dead of winter. We haven't gotten to take the kids outside because of the bad weather, so it's something fun to do and they can learn something at the same time."
To celebrate, some students were asked to bring in 100 items. In kindergarten teacher Kim Verdun's class, students decorated hats and painted dots on a paper plate to make a gumball art piece. Afterward, they all gathered on the big carpet to count drops of water together.
In Karen Munz's kindergarten class, students ducked under a special construction paper entrance in front of the door and decorated two o-shaped cookies along with a strawberry wafer to signify the number.
In Schulz's room, students worked on basic probability by participating in games like the box coloring game, where students were instructed to roll a six-sided die and for each roll, they color in that number of squares. From there, they figure out how many rolls it took them based on the different color crayons they had used to fill in their squares. Schulz said she also had them make a tally with the dice.
"First they make a guess of which dice number they think they will get the most of and then they start rolling. They would roll it and keep tally of what number they got the most of," said Schulz. "This is stuff we are doing in math anyways. We also made hats, they flipped pennies and we made a book of 100 words together as a class, it was fun to do."
In order to prepare the kids for a theme day, Schulz said the first grade faculty planned their week of math and reading so that everything got covered and there would still be time for a fun day on Friday.
"That way, the kids can have fun and we aren't keeping them from anything they are supposed to be learning," said Schulz. "We will still do math activities, but with a theme."
At the end of the day, Schulz said the school hopes to give their students a way to conceptualize the number. Schulz said sometimes children don't always understand what the value of 100 is, but with the annual theme day they are given a general understanding.
"Hopefully, the next time they see it, they will think back to this day and remember '100,' or bringing in 100 items," said Schulz. "We try to take something fun and turn it into a learning experience."
100 days — and counting

Southwest flights delayed and canceled after computer glitchReuters
June 22. 2013 8:45PM
Southwest Airlines canceled or delayed about 250 flights Friday night and early on Saturday due to a system-wide outage of computers used to dispatch aircraft, but Manchester-Boston Regional Airport was not affected, said a spokesman for the airline.
J. Brian O'Neill, deputy airport director, said the troubles did not affect operations in Manchester.
Southwest operates 17 departures and 17 arrivals daily at the Manchester airport, O'Neill said. "And the computer challenges they experienced overnight did not impact our flight schedules at all," he said.
The Dallas-based airline said 43 overnight flights were canceled as a result of the outage, which began around 11 p.m. on Friday and lasted until about 3 a.m. on Saturday, said Southwest Airlines spokesman Michelle Agnew.
Another 14 morning flights were canceled due to "flight crew availability and aircraft positioning" after the outage ended, she said.
Most of the cancellations affected routes in the western United States, Agnew said. Flights that were already airborne were not affected by the outage, while planes on the ground were held back, she said, adding that the cause of the computer failure was unknown.
Southwest, which operates some 3,400 flights daily, said in a statement on its website that its "systems are working at full capacity."

Amy Adams: Superman's Lois Lane?
Amy Adams has reportedly landed the role of Lois Lane in the upcoming Superman reboot.
Director Zack Snyder called the 36-year-old actress on Sunday morning (March 27) to tell her she'd gotten the part, according to the L.A. Times.
"There was a big, giant search for Lois….For us it was a big thing and obviously a really important role. We did a lot of auditioning but we had this meeting with Amy Adams and after that I just felt she was perfect for it," Zack said.
Henry Cavill has already been cast as Superman in the reboot.
Congrats to Amy if it's true!!

The Newberry began to collect in earnest on the history of printing and allied fields of the book arts in the years just after World War I, under terms of a bequest by Chicago journalist and publisher John Mansir Wing (1844-1917), who envisioned "a great typographical library." The initial impulse of the collection was to represent as many different printers and type faces as possible from the early period of printing. The design of letter forms remains a central theme of the collection. Calligraphy, type and type-founding, technical innovations in printing, design usage and theory, bookselling, book binding, papermaking, the history of book collecting, and the history of libraries are other important themes.
Today, the John M. Wing Foundation on the History of Printing is one of the world's leading collections in its field, including as it does nearly 100,000 volumes of technical literature, periodicals, and historical accounts of printing and book arts; over 600 cubic feet of printing- and publishing-related archives (in 56 different collections); 650 calligraphic manuscripts and 2,100 printed volumes on calligraphy; 68,000 volumes of classified printing samples of every period (including 2,200 from the 15th century); and over 15,000 items of printed ephemera. Wing items are listed in the Newberry's online catalog and in OCLC's WorldCat database. Wing collection acquisitions to 1978 are also described in the Dictionary Catalog of the History of Printing from the John M. Wing Foundation of the Newberry Library (13 vols., 1961-1981).
Particular strengths of the Wing collection:
- Incunables, chosen specifically to represent the type faces of the 15th century
- Specimens of calligraphy of all periods
- Printed calligraphic manuals
- Type specimens from around the world
- The products of such Chicago printers and publishers as A.C. McClurg, W.B. Conkey, R.R. Donnelley & Sons, Stone & Kimball, and Way & Williams
- Fine and private press books whether English, American or Continental European
- Books and ephemera from the Officina Bodoni (Verona, Italy)
- Editions of Terence
Several important collections assembled by individuals are to be found within the Wing collection, notably:
- John M. Wing's own extra-illustrated books (not cataloged)
- The Coella Lindsay Ricketts and Alfred E. Hamill collections of calligraphica
- The Herbert M. Stone collection of Stone & Kimball imprints
- The Norma B. Rubovits collection of marbled and decorated papers
- Printed ephemera collected by such designers as William Kittredge, Will Ransom, and Robert Hunter Middleton
- The Jane Gilmartin Gilchrist collection of alphabet books (cataloging in progress)
- The Klaus Stopp collection of printed birth and baptismal certificates of German Americans
- The Henry Rosemont Typographical Union collection
Modern manuscripts and archives in the Wing collection include the papers of such figures as Raymond F. DaBoll, James Hayes, Douglas McMurtrie, Robert Hunter Middleton, Will Ransom, George Salter, and Platt Rogers Spencer.
The Wing collection is complemented by many other special collections of the Newberry, including, for example, medieval and Renaissance manuscripts, Hebraica, French Revolutionary pamphlets, courtesy books, emblem books, children's books, cartography, early music, and by the archives of such publishers as the Charles Kerr Company, the Rand McNally Company, and the General Drafting Corporation.

Priests for Life Outreach-Staten Island, NY
Contact: Margaret, 888-735-3448, ext. 251
Date: June 22, 2009
New York – Fr. Frank Pavone, National Director of Priests for Life, announced today that Priests for Life is inviting the laity to prepare a massive spiritual bouquet which will be presented this Fall to all the priests of the country.
The faithful are invited to pledge prayers, rosaries, chaplets, holy hours, and sacrifices for priests, that they may be protected in body and spirit, and may grow in holiness and in the fruitfulness of their ministry.
This can be done at http://www.yearofpriests.org/.
"Priests are heralds of the Gospel of Life, and are called to stir up the gifts of God's people to build the culture of life. In our day, when restoring protection for the right to life is the top moral imperative, the Catholic faithful thirst in a particular way for the leadership of priests in this arena, and eagerly pray for it," Fr. Pavone added.
Along with pledging a spiritual bouquet, people are invited to share their stories about their favorite priests.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Police are still searching for a woman who abducted a 5-year-old Philadelphia girl from her elementary school.
Investigators say the girl was blindfolded, forced to change out of her clothes and made to hide under a bed after being taken from her classroom Monday morning. A passer-by found her early Tuesday shivering under a piece of playground equipment at a park just outside the city.
Police say the woman claimed she was the girl's mother and was coming to take her to breakfast. After leaving school, police say the woman and the victim walked a few blocks to a home where a man was waiting.
Authorities believe the victim was targeted but have not disclosed a motive. School officials say personnel did not follow proper procedures before releasing the child.

My interest in Christian truths started in college, when I took seriously the challenge of a theologian who adapted Socrates' famous line to say that an unexamined faith is not worth believing. That truth continues to deepen in my heart and mind. As a Christian, I have experienced Christ's overwhelming love for me many times. But I must say the most compelling evidence I have for faith is embodied by the holy people I know. They have a presence that shows they have experienced the peace of Christ and new life in the Spirit. In today's second reading we hear, "Whoever is begotten by God conquers the world."
In today's Gospel the disciples, too, are created anew by the divine breath—the very breath that created us all in the first place: "Then the Lord God formed the man out of the dust of the ground and blew into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being" (Gn 2:7). On Easter evening, fearful and behind locked doors, the disciples experienced the risen Lord: "Jesus came and stood in their midst and said to them, 'Peace be with you'.... And when he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, 'Receive the Holy Spirit.'"
Now born "from above" they become entirely formed anew; for "what is born of flesh is flesh, and what is born of the spirit is spirit" (Jn 3:6-7). Thus empowered by Jesus, the disciples receive the authority to mediate divine forgiveness: "Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them and whose sins you retain are retained." I do not quite think that Jesus had the sacrament of reconciliation in mind, though that will later be an expression of this empowerment. Rather, envision the disciples (all disciples) manifesting his new, resurrected life and ministry in their own person. Jesus was breathing the spirit of his own mission and authority. Appropriately, in the first reading from Acts we learn that the apostles bore witness to the resurrection "with great power" (mega dynamis—think dynamite). This power comes from the Spirit.
But Thomas was not with them and would not believe. Jesus appears again the following Sunday and Thomas not only believes but proclaims, "My Lord and my God!" Thomas's proclamation of faith is a prophetic bookend to the beginning of the Gospel where we learned "the Word was God" and the "light of the human race" (Jn 1:1, 4). Now enlightened, Thomas makes a dramatic confession.
It would be easy to see Thomas as having been set up for failure. He was told an outrageous story and was expected to believe it without proof. Whenever someone describes a wild religious experience, I wonder how much of it comes from God and how much from the imagination. Thomas also works as a sort of analog for the post-apostolic church, which did not directly experience the risen Christ. Jesus responds to him: "Have you come to believe because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and believed."
Jesus' words are, of course, meant both for Thomas and for us. But shouldn't we, like Thomas, need some evidence to believe? Are we blessed to believe any religious claim that comes along? The truth is, however, that Thomas's problem was not that he wanted evidence, but that he was blind to the evidence right before him. He should have seen that his companions had become transformed from a group of people who were afraid, hopeless, guilty and powerless into believers who were clear-sighted, courageous and hope-filled; people who were forgiven and empowered to extend that forgiveness to others. Above all, their fear was replaced by the risen Jesus' gift of peace. The evidence was overwhelmingly present to Thomas. He could have seen it in all that constitutes being a new creation in Christ.

Staten Island, NY – Leaders of the Silent No More Awareness Campaign (SNMAC), the world's largest network of women and men harmed by abortion, today leveled stinging criticism at a new American Psychological Association report claiming abortion is "not a threat to women's mental health."
"The American Psychological Association's so-called study is nothing more than a conclusion supported by opinions screened to match that predetermined outcome," said Georgette Forney, co-founder of SNMAC. "The APA ignored or downplayed large, peer-reviewed studies showing a clear link between abortion and subsequent problems such as depression. Professionalism and intellectual honesty are not concepts I would associate with this report."
"It's a classic case of the abortion lobby's political and financial interests trumping the truth," added Janet Morana, also a co-founder of SNMAC. "Over 600 post-abortive women asked to meet with the APA about their experiences with abortion and depression. The APA brushed them off, just like it dismissed any scientific study that didn't agree with its agenda."
- 30 -
Since the launching of the Silent No More Awareness Campaign in 2003, 2,326 women and men have shared their testimonies publicly at over 200 gatherings in 44 states and six countries where more than 15,000 spectators have heard the truth about abortion's negative aftereffects. More than 4,100 people are registered to be Silent No More. Raising awareness about the hurtful aftermath of abortion and the help that is available to cope with the pain are two of the Campaign's goals.
The Silent No More Awareness Campaign is a joint project of Anglicans for Life and Priests for Life. For more information, please visit our website: www.silentnomoreawareness.org

Title in the Language of the Record
Nederland, Noord-Brabant Provincie bevolkingsregisters
Record Description
This Collection will include records from 1820 to 1930.
The records from 1850 to 1920 were kept in bound registers that were sorted by addresses. Later registers were sorted by family names. From 1920 to 1940, the registration was done on family cards. As individuals died, their cards or printouts were sent to the Central Offices for Statistics.
The population register was introduced in 1850 to keep track of families as they moved from one residence to another, although some localities began recording moves as early as 1820. It contained much the same information as the earlier censuses but added changes of address; occupations; births, deaths, and marriage dates; and immigration information. With all the changes, pages could get messy, so it was necessary to close some of the registers and start new ones. The 1850 register entries were based on information gathered from the census taken November 19, 1849. Early registers were sorted by address. Later registers were sorted by family name. Around 1920, the bound registers were phased out and replaced by a loose-leaf system known as family cards (gezinskaarten), which was used until 1940 when a new system came into effect.
For a list of records by localities and dates currently published in this collection, select the Browse.
Local magistrates needed a better system to keep track of inhabitants as they moved from place to place.
Because of all the copying and changing, the population registers contain a lot of errors; however, they do contain a lot of information not easily found elsewhere. Information found in these registers should always be checked against vital or church records

cookie of the weekMonday, February 12, 2007
Not much knitting happened last weekend.
We did however complete our valentines.......all 68 of them!!! We also had 1 valentine box to make and one to revamp. It was quite the scene....craft central!
We also got around to painting the doors inside our home. We had new doors installed almost 2 years ago! (YIKES) The downstairs doors where painted however we never got around to painting the upstairs doors. (I always said that I would, but knitting is so much more fun)! They were sort of grayish, and I think we just got used to it. They didn't seem to bother us. But, they sure look so much better white!
Libby's choice this week. I tried to get her to choose some kind of Valentine themed cookies, but she wanted nothing to do with that. She chose Peppermint Bon Bons. The kids all loved them. They are not too pepper minty, not too chocolaty. This is a keeper for us.
Peppermint Bon Bons
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/2 cup veg shortening
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
1/2 cup buttermilk
2 eggs
1/4 tsp peppermint extract
3 cups flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
2 cups powdered sugar
2-4 Tablespoons whipping cream ( i used 5!)
2 Tablespoons butter or marg, softened
2 drops green food coloring
Beat first 7 ingredients until smooth, add flour soda and salt. Chill 3-4 hours until firm. Roll into balls.
Bake at 350 for 10-14 minutes.......Spread frosting when completely cool.
I am determined to finish the messenger bag this week, so hopefully I will have pictures to post soon.

Yo Premier?
Yeah whassup G?
That trip to L.A., may be delayed
Why whassup I'm on my way to the airport now
Yeah well your boy Guru got knocked
I don't know what this is about, sounds crazy man
Something about a gun
"The court calls Keith Elam to the stand
Please approach the bench."
[Verse 1: Guru]
Yo they got me handcuffed, I'm down in central booking
Things are fucked up, the way my future's looking
But I'm too fly, I'mma change this scenario
Make some power moves and tighten up my bankroll
Chumps are leary though, they see me as a threat
I'm like the black Dutch Schultz when you get me upset
5-0 makes me wanna flip, Larry Davis style
Got a nigga depressed, while he's awaiting trial
It's OK though, cause from grey skies comes blue
Through darkness comes light and I be known as the Guru
And this I certify we all should be alerted by
The traps within the system, our youth is getting murdered by
The D.A. says they got me on a felony
I'm trying to live my life, so what the fuck is you telling me?
The streets are war, that's what brothers carry weapons for
And I take the weight as I did before
The next thing you know, they got me on the radio
A rapper arrested, suckers showing me on video
Of course I know, that I'm a role model
But yo this rap life is real life sometimes it's full throttle
Right now I gotta think about me fuck the industry
You gets no love, except those who support me
What's the story, what happened when I went to L.A.?
Mixing shit up, no not there I got family
Nothing happened, mind your business yo step
You know we connect, JFK 2 LAX
They wanna lock us all up, and throw away the key
Don't wanna see us come up, don't wanna see us making G's
Long as we know this is the key to our destruction
Let's make moves no discussion
[Verse 2: Guru]
Peace to my man Hass, an Orange Man paying the cost
All the twenty-five to lifers all my brothers getting tossed
Into the system, supposed to rehabilitate
It's why you gotta regulate your own mindstate
Read, study lessons and build your inner power
The next level, doesn't tolerate cowards
For example, I know this rich Nigerian
Powerful American that's proud to be an African
He asked me why do all us brothers be getting trapped
I told him I'd explain it, broke it down in a rap
Whether you got naps, braids waves or no hair
Without esteem for yourself nigga, you going nowhere
And you can swagger like you rude as Josey Wales
Unorganized revolt almost always mostly fails
Give up the savage ways, be effective soldiers
To elevate the mental is to be poor no more
There's war in the streets, prepared men know best
I rhyme as live as it gets, JFK 2 LAX
They're always making trouble yo, against the righteous
Killing us in cold blood, those beasts, those vipers
And as I sit feeling the pain in my wrist
I vow to myself that I'mma change this shit
Or at least I gotta try or part of me will die
And only by action will any ideas solidify
So I inhale, exhale as I ponder
This grown man will make mistakes no longer
I've been there, I've seen how they make us fall victim
To their tricknowledgy, with no apology I diss em
And so I rip facts to dope tracks I caress
You're gonna hear about it, from JFK 2 LAX
Guru flips his arrest on gun possession charges into a positive message for the youth.
Later redone by Madlib as "LAX to JFK". Both songs sample "Time To Break Down" by The Supremes.

Viacom Inc. was sued by a former vice president who said the media company fired her in retaliation for opposing its alleged plan to illegally avoid paying U.S. taxes on the international licensing rights for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, NBC News reported.
In a complaint filed on Tuesday in Manhattan federal court, Nataki Williams said she was fired in April 2014 while on maternity leave, after Viacom ignored her objections to its plan the prior year to transfer Ninja Turtles rights to a Netherlands-based entity solely to avoid the U.S. tax burden.
Williams said the licensing work was handled in New York, but Viacom arranged for minor work to be done in the Netherlands to make it appear as though the contracts were handled there.
Williams said she was fired as vice president for financial planning and analysis, ending more than six years of employment at Viacom, on the pretext that her benefits paperwork wrongly listed her child's father, also named Williams, as a spouse.

Cubs keep zoo's dream alive
A FROZEN iceblock of tuna with whipped cream on top.
It's not the ideal birthday cake but for a cheetah called William, there was nothing better.
The cub was only one of the animals in the Australia Zoo's Africa exhibit to celebrate its first birthday yesterday.
The exhibit, the dream of late Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin, has flourished since its opening last September school holidays.
In one year, the zoo has welcomed two cheetah cubs and celebrated the first birthday of baby rhino Savannah.
Australia Zoo owner Terri Irwin yesterday said she was experiencing a mix of emotions to see the dream of her late husband flourish.
"We're not there yet but we're still moving ahead with what he wanted to do," she said.
"It's a mixed emotion of being so excited and proud and so sad that he's not here to experience it.
"We're determined to keep his dream alive."
Speaking on the Coast's tourism industry, Ms Irwin said she saw turbulent times as "levelling off" and business picking up again.
"For myself, it's a point of pride to say let's move ahead ... we've opened Africa and a year on we're looking forward to having baby rhinos and a baby giraffe," she said.
"So the sky's the limit for what we're achieving."
Rhino Inyeti is expecting her first calf while Caballe will give birth to a baby brother/sister for Savannah. Both are due early next year.
Other plans for the zoo include a special project relating to Robert and dinosaurs.
The September school holidays are sure to be full-on for the team at the zoo. Africa's first birthday cake will be cut in the Crocoseum on September 24.
Visitors will be given a free slice of cake to celebrate from 3.30pm while it lasts.
Bindi will perform for the first time since 2010 with a new daily show, followed by the Irwin family feeding the crocodiles.
There will be free African animal mask workshops every day, as well as free African drumming workshops on the weekends and a performance by the Watoto Children's Choir on September 28.

Surprise! New Poll Finds Most Russians Don't Want Gays As Neighbors
Nigel Campbell | September 12, 2013
This may not come as a surprise to you, Instincters, but a recent poll reveals that the majority of Russians don't really want gays living next door (or presumably working alongside them).
How sad considering we've got so much sugar to share! (Just being neighborly.)
Besides drunks, who do Russians not want most as neighbors or colleagues?
The answer: homosexuals, according to new research examining national identity released by a state-run pollster, the Russia Public Opinion Research Center, or VTsIOM.
According to the survey, 51 percent of Russians would not like "under any circumstances" to see a homosexual as a neighbor or co-worker.
Such an apparent loathing of homosexuality was one of the divisions highlighted by the survey, which examined what ideas and values united Russians and what kept them apart. Representing 45 regions across the country, 1,600 Russians took part in the poll.
We'd ask you if you were surprised by the poll results, but we think we know the answer to that.
Instead, we'll ask how you think these numbers can be improved? Are they a result of the anti-gay legislation that comes from the very top of the Russian government?

Stalking stones: An overview of canine and feline urolithiasis
Urolithiasis is common in dogs and cats, causing morbidity and, occasionally, mortality. Although renal and ureteral uroliths can sometimes be more difficult to manage, uroliths can usually be successfully treated medically or surgically or by performing lithotripsy. Long-term success is possible. This article will help you diagnose urolithiasis, determine the urolith composition, and develop an appropriate treatment and prevention plan.
Uroliths in small animals occur most frequently in the bladder (urocystolith) but can also be found in the urethra (urethrolith), ureters (ureterolith), and kidneys (nephrolith). Clinical signs of urolithiasis vary according to the urolith's location and any underlying or predisposing conditions. In addition, some uroliths do not produce clinical signs and may be discovered incidentally.Since the bladder is the most common site for uroliths, the most frequent clinical signs observed are dysuria, hematuria, and pollakiuria with or without inappropriate urination.
If the urethra contains uroliths, the same signs may be observed, with the possible addition of blood dripping from the prepuce or vulva independent of urination. Urethral obstruction may result in unsuccessful micturition attempts, lethargy, anorexia, vomiting, abdominal distention, or pain.
Ureteroliths and nephroliths may be associated with hematuria and abdominal pain as well as lethargy, fever, decreased appetite, and vomiting if an upper urinary tract infection or obstruction is involved.
Urolithiasis diagnosis may be aided by historical information, such as a previous occurrence of urolithiasis or an owner's observation of signs compatible with uroliths. A predisposition to urolithiasis may be indicated by patient signalment or pre-existing medical conditions favoring urolith formation. Routine laboratory test (complete blood count, serum chemistry profile, urinalysis) results do not specifically detect uroliths but provide valuable information about predisposing or complicating medical conditions.
Urinalysis findings, including the pH, evidence of bacterial infection, and the presence of specific crystal types may indicate urolith composition. Urinalysis is best performed within 30 minutes of sample collection. Refrigeration helps preserve the urine sample but can alter the chemical and sediment findings. In particular, time and refrigeration lead to pH and temperature changes, which enhance crystal formation and cause misinterpretation of the urinalysis results.1
Physical examination
You may identify a firm object in the bladder during abdominal palpation or find very small uroliths in voided urine or in penile or vulvar mucoid discharge. Rectal examination findings may reveal firm objects in the pelvic urethra.
In most cases, definitively diagnosing urolithiasis requires ultrasonography, survey abdominal or urethral radiography, or contrast radiography. Obtain survey images of the entire length of the urinary tract to identify whether uroliths are present in multiple locations and to identify any factors predisposing the patient to urolith formation, such as infection or neoplasia. Determining the exact number of uroliths with any of the imaging modalities can be challenging in some cases.
Ultrasonography is a good initial imaging tool to detect uroliths; however, it does not reveal the radiodensity or shape of uroliths. In addition, unless a patient's size allows for the use of a rectal transducer, the pelvic urethra cannot be seen with ultrasonography.
Survey radiography can reveal the radiodensity and approximate size and contour of uroliths. It is also generally the most cost-effective and available noninvasive procedure for initially evaluating uroliths.
Although high-frequency (5 to 7.5 MHz) ultrasonography compared favorably with double-contrast cystography in detecting urocystoliths and determining urolith numbers in one study, double-contrast cystography has the added benefit of being a sensitive and specific indicator of urolith shape and size.2,3

Arizona Youth Partnership: Healthy Marriages/Strong Families
Today, fewer Americans are getting married. And for those couples who tie the knot, statistics say that half will end in divorce.
The Administration for Children and Families believes a strong marriage leads to better health, economic independence and quality of life for couples who have chosen marriage for themselves.
Thanks to the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, funding was provided to help local community centers like Arizona Youth Partnership (AzYP) conduct education services to sustain healthy marriages.
AzYP, a non-profit 501 (c) (3) organization, works with youth and families living in 29 rural communities across nine counties in the state of Arizona to bring needed resources to unserved and under-served communities.
AzYP works in partnership with communities to develop resources to promote the positive growth of their children by: 1) teaching youth healthy decision making skills; 2) teaching couples healthy relationship skills; 3) teaching parents how to communicate with their children; and 4) facilitating community coalitions to create and implement strategic plans to reduce underage drinking and drug use.
After a weekend retreat, participants shared their stories of success:
"At first I didn't think it was going to work – didn't think we would even make it through the weekend retreat – but we did and my husband is using the tools and things have changed for the better and are so wonderful now. We have moved into a new house, our work life is going great, our home life is going great, we are both attending church – life is wonderful. Thank you for helping us make the positive changes!" said one participant.
Another participant shared how much better his relationship with his wife had become. He said, "I used to hate coming home to my wife. When I did come home it was really to throw money at her and leave before we could get into an argument. Now, with the tools that we learned during the weekend, I can't wait to come home and be able to discuss issues with my wife. I never knew that we had such a strong marriage. All we needed were the tools. Thank you for the work you do."

Alabama impresses DT Kirven
Lynchburg (Va.) Brookville defensive tackle Korren Kirven has become one of Alabama's top targets coming down the stretch as we head towards Signing Day for the class of 2012. This weekend he took his official visit to Tuscaloosa.
"The visit was good, it was my second time down there and the first one was very good and this one was more one-on-one time with the coaches," said the 6-foot-4, 272-pounder. "I talked to the coaches a lot and spent most of my time with coach Rumph and coach Saban."
Kirven broke down the visit.
"Friday we got there and I met with the coaches and we went out and grabbed some food," he said. "The food was amazing, it was really good. Saturday we toured the school, met with the academic people about my major and things and spent more one-on-one time with the coaches. I also got to hang out with some of the players. I was hosted by Cyrus Kouandjio and Jeoffrey Pagan and they were both cool. And again they fed us really well and then Sunday I had my final meetings with the coaches and with coach Saban. That's the most time I've been able to spend with him and he keeps it real. He doesn't tell you what you want to hear, he tells you how it is and I like that."
Kirven things Alabama is taking one more defensive tackle and the Tide coaches made it clear how important he was to them.
"I know Eddie Goldman is also out there and I'm not sure who else is uncommitted, but they made me feel I was wanted," he said. "They made that clear."
Next up for Kirven is an official visit to Virginia Tech, the school many feel has been his leader for quite some time.
"I know people think that because I've been there so often and because Logan Thomas and Zack McCray went there from my school, but I don't have a leader," he said. "I'm looking forward to seeing it on an official so I can get to feel how it is to be there for a few days. I've liked it every time I've gone so I don't expect this to be any different."
Kirven is also considering Maryland and Tennessee with Virginia on the outside looking in.
"Maryland has great coaches and they put a lot of players in the NFL," he said. "And Tennessee has coach Sal Sunseri now who is my favorite recruiting coach and who was recruiting me at Alabama. Virginia kind of fell off for me. I could still take a mid-week official there if I wanted to, but I don't think I need to."
This week coaches will be swinging by school and by the Kirven household.
"I think Tennessee is Monday, Virginia Tech Tuesday, Alabama Wednesday and Maryland Thursday," he said. "It will be a busy week."
Kirven will decide on Signing Day at his school.

We are always asked, "Is the Hacienda haunted?" We always answer that we have never seen any ghosts or felt anything but peace and good feelings at Hacienda Vargas. We've lived here for 12 years and have spent time in every square inch of the property at all times of day and night, but, maybe we're just not meant to see!
Over the years, we have had several sightings of "guests" in a few of the rooms that were not the paying guests! For the most part, all the experiences have been of a benign nature. But the interesting part is that each instance has been very different – there has never been a central character, theme or specific resident, etc. that the experience can be tied to. There have been at least four reports to us and a few of them repeat guests that have had experiences on several occasions!
For those of you wondering, most of the sightings orexperiences have been located in our casitas, which are the suites in a separate building and there is absolutely no extra cost for any manifestations you may encounter!
On another note, if you aren't lucky enough to run into a ghost at Hacienda Vargas, you should go on a ghost tour in nearby Old Town; a 90 minute, lantern lit adventure, searching for the lost souls who have made Old Town their eternal home. It's lots of fun and you never know if you will have an actual sighting, see an appartion or catch some orbs on your camera!

The following commentary does not necessarily reflect the views of AgWeb or Farm Journal Media. The opinions expressed below are the author's own.
Kevin Van Trump has over 20 years of experience in the grain and livestock industry.
Corn bull's, staring down the barrel of the slowest planting pace ever on record, they seem to be already discounting 1.0 to 2.0 billion bushels of US corn production on the reduction of yields and fewer corn acres going in the ground. I have heard many estimates floating around the past few days, and the consensus is we are definitely going to producer fewer bushels than the 14.63 billion projected by the USDA in the February Ag Forum. I am currently hearing estimates ranging from 12.5 to 14.2 billion bushels as being more realistic. Before you get overly bulled up just keep in mind it is still "EARLY." Keep in mind these are all wild guesses at this juncture, as the "June Moisture" and "July Heat" will be the key ingredients in the overall recipe for total US corn production. Remember, we have had some very big crops that went into the ground late. The forecast for next week and beyond will remain the key to the equation. If it stays wet and cool look for the trade to become even more nervous and add more premium, a warmer drier outlook and the premium gets sucked out even quicker then it was added.

Value Line is regarded as the best independent research available. More than just recommendations, Value Line provides the rationale behind its picks for greater understanding.
Drug Roundup – April 17, 2014
There have been several noteworthy developments in the drug space recently, which will likely have a material impact on the companies in this sector and the markets they serve. Companies mentioned in this review include Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (TEVA), Pfizer Inc. (PFE - Free Pfizer Stock Report), Merck & Co. (MRK - Free Merck Stock Report), Eli Lilly & Co. (LLY), Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMY), and AbbVie Inc. (ABBV).
First-Quarter Earnings Season
With the majority of "Large Pharma" scheduled to release first-quarter results in the coming weeks, investors will be eager to see how companies are faring in the early stages of 2014. Coming off such a strong 2013, in which the group handily outperformed the broader market averages, expectations will likely be high. Per usual, key items to focus on in the upcoming conference calls include the impacts of recent patent losses, emerging generic competition, pipeline activity, and integration progress for the companies that completed acquisitions or mergers. Some noteworthy earnings release dates include: Eli Lilly & Co. (April 24th), Bristol-Myers Squibb (April 29th), Merck & Co. (April 29th), and Pfizer Inc. (May 5th).
Merck Gains Approval for Allergy Drug
On April 14th, New Jersey-based Merck announced that the FDA approved Grastek, a new tablet for grass allergies in patients five to 65 years old. The tablet represents an alternative to standard weekly allergy shots, and dissolves under the tongue. When taken daily over a period of a few years, it's designed to gradually reduce allergic reactions to common grasses (e.g. sneezing, coughing, watery eyes), instead of just offering temporary relief. Merck indicated that Grastek will be available in U.S. pharmacies by late April.
Teva to Release Generic Celebrex by Year's End
On April 17th, the Israel-based drugmaker announced that it had settled its patent litigation with Pfizer and will launch its generic version of the blockbuster pain medication in December, 2014. The news comes more than a month after regulators invalidated a patent covering the drug, opening the door for cheaper generics to enter the market following its expiration on May 30th. Although somewhat expected, the loss of Celebrex will represent a significant blow to Pfizer's top line post-2014. The drug was Pfizer's fourth-highest selling product last year, generating sales of $2.9 billion.
The Race for Hep-C Cure is a Top Story
The race to produce an effective Hepatitis C treatment has been one of the hottest topics in the industry over the past year. With so much at stake (annual peak sales projections have ranged from $5 billion to $16 billion), some of the biggest names in the industry have diverted substantial resources toward fielding a potential candidate. While Gilead Sciences appears to be the odds on favorite given its superior late-stage trial results, other drug giants including AbbVie, Merck, and Bristol Myers are all still in the mix. With an estimated 170 million people believed to be infected with Hepatitis C worldwide, an approved treatment would represent a huge opportunity for the first company to market.
At the time of this article's writing, the author did not have positions in any of the companies mentioned.

By NICHOLAS RICCARDI, Associated Press | Source: USNews.com
PHOENIX (AP) — Arizona lawman Joe Arpaio is gearing up for what he expects will be the toughest of his five re-election campaigns.
He is facing a determined effort from immigration rights activists to push him out. A ruling may come any day in a lawsuit that alleges his department violated the civil rights of Hispanics. A second lawsuit filed by the Justice Department is making its way through the courts.
And in TV ads, he doesn't mention the signature issue that helped bring him to national prominence — a sign, people in both parties say, that illegal immigration is losing its potency.

Ayotte to file bill to block pay hikes for CongressBy Ted Siefer
New Hampshire Union Leader
December 31. 2012 4:37PM
U.S. Sen. Kelly Ayotte (R-NH) says she will file legislation at the start of the next congressional session that will block pay raises for Congress and other high-ranking government officials.
'With our country $16 trillion in debt and every American facing a tax increase, it's astounding that the president would approve a pay raise for Congress and others serving at the highest levels of government,' said Sen. Ayotte in a statement Monday.
The 0.5 percent pay increase for members of Congress is set to take effect March 27, after President Obama signed the executive order last week. It would bump the congressional salary to nearly $175,000 from $174,000.
The order also applies to top-level government employees, including Supreme Court justices and the vice president, who would see his salary rise by about $6,000 to $231,900..
Ayotte joins other senators and congressmen who have criticized the pay raise since the president signed the order.
'Given the dysfunction we've seen in Washington with the fiscal cliff, the last thing we should do is give bigger paychecks to members of Congress and top federal officials,' Ayotte said in the statement.
Other members of New Hampshire's congressional delegation did not immediately provide responses to the proposal.
Obama ordered a two-year pay freeze for federal workers in Dec. 2010 and Congress hasn't had a pay increase since 2009.
