Applicant's Mark
Earlier Mark
The General Court has confirmed the existence of a likelihood of confusion between the word marks YOO and YO in relation to a range of goods and services including catering and several categories of food and drink.
The appeal was against a decision of the OHIM Second Board of Appeal. Yoo Holdings ("Yoo"), the applicant, had applied to register the word sign YOO as a CTM in class 43 for "Restaurant services, bar services, café, cafeteria, canteen, snack bar and catering services; lounge and bar services; services for providing food and drink". Eckes-Granini Group GmbH ("Eckes") filed an opposition based on an earlier national German word mark YO and an International trade mark designating the European Community, YO in classes 29, 30 and 32, for a range of goods including foods, ingredients, confectionary, beers, and several soft drinks.
Yoo claimed in their appeal that the Board was wrong to find similarity between the services applied for and the goods covered by the earlier marks. Yoo also claimed the signs were different and that there was no likelihood of confusion. The General Court found however that the services applied for were complementary to the goods covered by the earlier mark. Goods such as pastries and confectionery were often served in restaurants and as a result the goods were closely related to those services.
Yoo also argued that consumers would assume that the undertaking manufacturing such goods would be different to those supplying them to restaurants. The General Court disagreed with this saying it was often the case that both the manufacturer and supplier were the same. As a result the Court said the Board of Appeal was right to find that the goods and services were similar.
The Court also said the Board had been right to find a high degree of visual similarity between the marks. In considering the phonetic similarity, the General Court found that it was only English speakers who would pronounce the words differently (saying "oo" rather than "o") and that this was not enough to distinguish the words.
In considering the conceptual similarity it was only Spanish speakers and English speakers who would consider that there were conceptual differences; "Yo" meaning "I" in Spanish and being an "interjection which can be used to greet someone or get his attention" in English. This however did not alter the overall impression produced by the words.
Yoo claimed that the earlier marks had a less than average distinctive character. The General Court reiterated that distinctive character was only one of the factors to be taken into account when considering an overall assessment of likelihood of confusion and as such did not preclude a finding of likelihood of confusion.
The General Court therefore found that the Board of Appeal had been right to refuse to register the mark applied for in class 43 and dismissed Yoo's appeal.

Inxs - Keep The Peace - Keeps This Album From Being Bad!
Nightwing | 12/10/2005
(3 out of 5 stars)
"Okay..so in this day and age if you buy a CD and have more then one good song on it, it is considered luck. Most soundtracks either contain BIG hits or just random songs. I think this soundtrack went for the latter. Did it work? Well they got some "interesting" songs.
I must give credit where credit is due. Hello Inxs. Their song "Keep The Peace" is not only a great song, it is one of the best Inxs songs I've ever heard. (And I keep up with them up till Michael Hutchence's death. JD from RockStar: Inxs isn't bad but he will never fill Hutch's shoes.) Anyways..this songs features Michael Hutchence's GREAT voice and killer style..This song makes this album a must for any real Inxs fan.
So beyond a great Inxs song, what does this soundtrack offer? Well It has the song "Right Thing, Wrong Way" which has very childish sounding background music. And the lyrics sound kind of silly..but it works. While the song is kind of predicatable, it works. It is a nice song.
Also the songs "The Place Where You Belong" and "Summer Jamming" have a very good summer vibe to them. Both could be played in the summer and would be fitting. It ties into the movie also - given the location. Beyond on that, the Diana Ross tune is worth mention.
Okay I think I just about covered it..oh yeah and it has that well known 'dodododododododod" Beverly Hills Cop theme music. This time it got changed up a bit by Niles Rodgers and Richard Hilton. And it was for the best! This newer sounding mix of the song - works VERY well. It sounds VERY hip. I can just hear Eddie Murphy's trademark laugh.
If only Beverly Hills Cop 4 would start production. Oh well, I suppose this music can hold me over till then."

Sandy Tolan to talk April 28 on Israeli-Palestinian coexistence
Students Crossing Boundaries and Brandeis Students for Justice in Palestine will present Sandy Tolan, author of "The Lemon Tree: An Arab and a Jew in the Heart of the Middle East" at 7 p.m. Tuesday, April 28, in Feldberg Lounge, Upper Sherman.
Tolan will speak about his book on Israeli-Palestinian relations, which was published in 2006, and his more recent research on the one-state solution for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Tolan is a veteran journalist who has reported from more than 30 countries, particularly in the Middle East, Latin America, the Balkans, and Eastern Europe. As co-founder of Homelands Productions, he has produced hundreds of documentaries and features for public radio. He has written for more than 40 newspapers and magazines.
Since 2002, Tolan has taught international reporting and radio at the Graduate School of Journalism at the University of California-Berkeley. In 2007, his students won the George Polk Award for their public radio series on the early signs of climate change around the world – the first time students have been honored in the 58-year history of the awards.
Students Crossing Boundaries is a group organized in 2007 after former President Jimmy Carter's visit to Brandeis, during which Carter encouraged students to travel to Israel and the occupied territories to witness the Israeli-Palestinian conflict firsthand. In February of 2008, it made arrangements for 11 students to travel to Israel and the West Bank.
The mission of the group, according to its web site, is to empower its members and other students to observe social, cultural, economic and political conditions in various conflict zones and disseminate their experiences to the public. This year, students are traveling to the US-Mexican border region as well as to Israel and the territories.
Brandeis Students for Justice in Palestine is a chartered student organization whose stated purpose is to give a voice to people "interested in promoting the Palestinian perspective, narrative and point of view on campus, and to create an outlet and framework of support for students that wish to explore the conflict."
The lemon tree of the title is located in the backyard of a home in Ramla, Israel, currently owned by Dalia, a Jewish woman whose family of Holocaust survivors emigrated from Bulgaria. Before Israel gained its independence in 1948, the house was owned by the Palestinian family of Bashir, who meets Dalia when he returns to see his family home after the Six-Day War of 1967.
Tolan traces the history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict through the parallel personal histories of Dalia and Bashir and their families—all refugees seeking a home. As Tolan takes the story forward, Dalia struggles with her Israeli identity, and Bashir struggles with decades in Israeli prisons for suspected terrorist activities.
The Washington Post selected the book as a top nonfiction title for 2006. The Christian Science Monitor wrote that "no novel could be more compelling" and proclaimed, "It will be one of the best nonfiction books you will read this year."

Wallpaper is synonymous with notions of tacky retro decor, but artist Wies Preijde creates a dramatic scene using the stuff that is sure to make you doubt the experience. The installation features fibre walls that have paper pieces of art that are affixed onto each section. What's created is somewhat of an optical illusion because the relatively modest-sized installation looks like a house.
Each of the walls is emblazoned with vibrantly flamboyant designs that would certainly entrance anyone if their home were covered in them. Preijde is a recent graduate of the Textile Design Department at the Royal Academy of Art, which gives us a little bit of insight into the mind of the designer. Only a true textile master could create such an exquisite exhibit that is sure to please people of all ages.

Chongqing Chicken with Chilies 辣子雞
Hello and Happy New Year!
Nothing gets me more excited than kicking off the new year with a pepper head party dish like Chongqing Chicken (yes that's a dish named after my hometown!).
For those of you love Sichuan cuisine, Chongqing Chicken rarely needs any introduction. For those of you who haven't heard of this dish, Chongqing Chicken, aka Chinese with Chilies or 辣子雞 LaZiJi in Chinese, is a spicy dish best known for the insane amount of chili pepper used (more on that later), the incredibly aroma, and the dramatic chili pepper to chicken ratio observed by the patrons.
I still remember my first time eating this dish in Mont GeLe Mountain where the dish had just been recently invented. As dinners get seated, a kitchen staff would bring out a live chicken for approval (alternatively, a customer can pick out a chicken from their cage at the back). The chicken is then weighted (the weight is used to calculate the price) and sent back to the kitchen for processing. 30 minutes later, a giant tray of chicken bits buried in a mountainous pile of chili peppers is ushered to the table by two waiters and the spicy feast begins.
Fortunately, for us home cooks, we can skip all the live poultry and all that dramatic entrance and still serve up a delicious plate of chicken that's equally impressive.
The recipe for Chongqing chicken is actually pretty straightforward. However since there is a large amount of chili pepper on stake, it's important that you know the spicy level of your peppers. The last thing you want to do is to use super spicy peppers and the dish becomes inedible.
In my demonstration, I use 1.5cup of medium spicy dry chili per 1lb of boneless chicken. This works out pretty well for my palate – the dish is spicy to the point that I can still taste the full flavor of chicken and other spices.
Another important ingredient is five-spice-powder. For this dish I like to make my own spice powder comprised of anise star, sand ginger, fennel, white pepper. If you don't have whole spices readily available, some store bought five-spice-powder should do the trick as well.
As for the chicken, the traditional recipe always calls for a whole bone-in chicken (live if possible). For demonstration purpose, I opt for boneless chicken tights because a lot of readers aren't used to handle a whole bone-in chicken and it's quite messy if one tries to chop a whole chicken without proper tool (aka a bone cleaver). However, if you are already used to eating chicken off the bones, you are more than welcome to use a whole chicken to score the bonus point 🙂
P.S. it's customary for the customers to take home the leftover chili peppers so they can be re-purposed. After you are done with the chicken, try to use the leftover chili peppers for other spicy dishes such as this fish in spicy chili oil.

Done this recipe today! Awesome! I used turkey breast , some hot chilly flakes and a sprinkle of mature rice vinegar Shanxi on the rice. I did not used as much chilly peppers, but it was Ok. We will make it again, for sure. Thank you, Yi . Greetings from Romania!

I just made this dish's first cousin, chicken with dry red pepper and peanuts, from the PeiMei cookbook.
It should be intersting with different seasoning. Peppers are often sold by variety rather than heat. I read that the common one in Asian cooking is the Chile de Arbol. It looks like yours and that is what I always use. Ground up, it is the stuff in the pizzaria. I will have to cut back. That much Chile de Arbol would be lethal. I have had the ton of peppers version in a restaurant shrimp dish. We did take the peppers home. Thanks for the new recipe.

I've been looking for an authentic version of this recipe. Can't wait to give it a try! One of the main staples I get from the Chinese restaurant near my house.

Did you use chicken breasts or thighs?
- 7.1
oops, i just saw, it's thighs. 🙂

A local Sichuan restaurants sells this dish by the name "Popcorn Chicken". It really is insanely delicious.

Thanks for the recipe! I just made it tonight 😉

Happy New Year! And what a great dish to start the year — this looks fantastic. I've had this in restaurants, but never made it. That's going to change! Thanks so much.

o my my…all those chillies…the chicken must be very tasty!
- 2
I am definitely going to try this one. A local restaurant does something similar, buried in dry red peppers, with shrimp, Your five spice powder recipe only has four spices. do you intentionally leave out the cinnamon and substitute white pepper for Sichuan peppercorns?

Thank you for the bold flavored and bright colored chili dish to start our New Year:)

Hello, TorontoEmerg, This is You Brain Calling
Posted by torontoemerg in Blogging Navel Gazing, Creative Pooch Screwing, Life at Home, Life in the Emergency Department, What Passes for Humour Around Here on Tuesday 04 January 2011
How I spent the last few days and how this relates to my plans for the coming week.
I spent the better part of Friday preparing to get drunk, and then, in fact, getting drunk. Far, far too drunk. This is funny, because I never drink, being the soul of moderation.
Saturday was the day after the night before.
Sunday I nearly went to church, but didn't because I procrastinated till it was too late to go (I was writing a blog post, actually), and then I went shopping. I know I've said I'm a Christian and so on, and Christians are not supposed to drink to excess and even Sunday shopping is a little frowned upon — but I never said I was a good Christian. I'm hardly even a mediocre Christian. Too mouthy. Anyway, I also went to my new favourite all-you-can-eat sushi restaurant, perhaps to soothe the guilt of not doing my religious duty. I am a little embarrassed to relate I'm eating there so frequently the owner has given me a little card making me a "V.I.P customer" which entitles me to 10% off lunch and dinner. Last time I went he gave me a plate of delicious steamed mussels though they aren't on the all-you-can-eat menu. This worried me, a little. When a man gives you a plate of steamed mussels in front of your husband, I think there is something going on. I was quite anxious about this. Would he repeat his free mussel performance? I glanced nervously toward the kitchen every few moments. I felt as though God was punishing me by wrecking my lunch. However, there were no further mussels.
Monday, I took friend and her diabetic cat to the vet, then ended up shopping some more, which is very surprising, because I loathe shopping the same way some people loathe Justin Bieber. Incidentally, I saw his doll at 50% off. We intended just to run into the mall "for just a minute" at 1115 and stayed so long our planned lunch metamorphosed into supper.
Filed under the category of It Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time is the fact that I'm working four day shifts in a row beginning today.
All of which is to say, posting may be light and insubstantial over the next few days. I don't even have any ideas for light and insubstantial posts. I have no blog posts written in advance. I used up my emergency reserve post a couple of weeks ago. My brain has gone on vacation.
I am a bad blogger.
I hang my head. In shame.

Retail Sales Rise In Feb
The market is roughly flat in early trading, and once again yesterday we saw sellers try to push the market lower but dip buyers again showed up late in the day and helped save the Dow and keep in in positive territory. The S&P closed only slightly lower on relatively light volume.
In economic news, retail sales for the month of February rose 1.1% which was better than expected, and up from the prior month's reading of 0.2%.
Utility stocks are leading the early action, while the materials sector is lagging. Financials are up slightly so far.
Asian markets were lower across the board overnight, led by a 1.5% drop in Hong Kong over concerns about a slowdown in China's property markets. S. Korean unemployment was reported at 3.5%, slightly ahead of what the market was looking for.
European markets are also lower today, led by a 1.6% drop in Italy. Eurozone industrial production declined 0.4%. Italy auctioned off 3-yr debt at a yield of 2.48% vs. 2.30% from the previous auction. And reports indicate the Troika and Cyprus are in talks regarding a smaller bailout agreement for the troubled nation.
The dollar index is trading higher today, and weighing on commodities. Gold is lower near $1586, and silver and copper prices are lower also. Ag prices are down today as well. Oil prices are bucking the trend and trading higher to $93.08.
The 10-year yield is higher today, within its recent range and trading at 2.05%,
The volatility index remains remarkably low at 12.32. When the VIX is this low, we often see a selloff in the market even if it turns out to be brief.
Trading comment: Waiting for a market pullback continues to be a difficult plan. We have been looking for situations to add to stocks that have been performing well but are not too extended in price. That list isn't too large these days as many stocks have had big runups and look like they are in need of a rest at this point and not worth chasing. But investor sentiment is not nearly as high as we would expect with the market at new highs, so we continue to think pullbacks will be brief affairs in this environment.

On March 31, the Fox Reality Channel will officially die and turn into Nat Geo Wild, a spin-off of the National Geographic Channel, which itself airs some strong unscripted TV.
Nat Geo Wild "will be a joint venture between Fox Cable Networks and National Geographic Ventures, [and] will concentrate on programs about animals in the wild," The New York Times reports, adding that "[i]t is an extension of a network that has already found success internationally, with outlets in about 50 countries, including England, France and Germany." Fox cable president Rich Battista said that while Fox Reality was profitable, "he expected Nat Geo Wild to be 'highly profitable' and more likely to add subscribers."
The new network's unscripted shows will include "a program about the naturalist Casey Anderson, who lived in a habitat in Montana with grizzly bears; a program called 'Rebel Monkeys' about rambunctious monkeys in India; and another called 'Mystery Gorilla' with Mireya Mayor, who was featured in this summer's 'Stanley and Livingstone' reality series on the A&E channel." That was Expedition Africa.
Meanwhile, Fox Reality president David Lyle admitted in an interview with RealScreen that the network, which was profitable, had an identity problem, and they'd been studying what to do with it. "We knew from the beginning of the year that we needed to stand for something else aside from general reality. With the explosion of reality or unscripted entertainment across all of cable, you couldn't afford to be a generalist anymore. We did a large segmentation study to see if we were going to focus by 'creep,' or take one element and focus on that, and we even looked at going after a niche product or passion and making it our own," he said.

If you don't live under a rock, then perhaps you might have noticed that there's a lot of angry people right now. Everyday that I read, listen, or watch the news, I just see people getting angry over each other and terrible, disgusting things happen. The missouri shooting and its protests, the Israeli-Palestine conflict, disputes over feminism and racial status, and more that I would rather just not name. I recently took a decision to enroll in Aikido classes (a martial art) and while the class' main objective is to learn self-defense, it has also taught me about my mind, body, and spirit.
And while yes, I love to show off my awesome ninja moves to my parents and my friends, there's also a simple and natural philosophy to Aikido that follows many of the same beliefs as Buddhism. These include harmonizing with, rather than confronting, the attacker, acting decisively and being present "in the moment", and letting techniques flow naturally by being in tune with the universe. My instructor always tells me to take these ideas further than the mat. Wether the attacker represents a homework problem or a mugger, Aikido (for the three classes that I've been to), has taught me valuable life lessons about the mind, body and spirit.
Now that I'm done being all "Zen" and philosophical, what am I getting at? Well, all these angry and sometimes nasty people we often see in the news and media should all calm down and learn some lessons from aikido.
shibarakushite kara!
(I have no idea what that means)

Guitarist Núñez and saxophonist Sambeat came together with a common interest, which was to blur the lines between flamenco and jazz. Both musicians are eminently qualified and they recruited the brilliant Armenian percussionist Arto Tunçboyaciyan, singer Esperanza Fernandez, and the New York Flamenco Reunion quartet to help out. The title of this live concert appropriately translates as "Crossroads" and indeed the musicians tackle a flamenco repertoire and give it a fresh sheen. The four songs include a traditional song, one based on Pablo Neruda's "No hay olvido," and two based on lyrics by José Bergamin, a Spanish poet of the Twenties. One of the instrumentals, namely Monk's "In Walked Bud," doesn't draw from flamenco as overtly as the others but Cruce de Caminos succeeds in creating a bridge between two distinct genres and their respective audiences.

This is a repost blog from February 1, 2014:
WORSHIP, WALK, WITNESS is NorthCreek Church's mission. This threefold mission statement is to encourage the members and attenders at NorthCreek to gather together to worship the Lord, to walk with Lord through discipleship and service, and to be a witness through evangelism and missions. This year as I stated in my last post, our church staff thought it would be good for our congregation to review this mission statement by memorizing scripture verses each month that reflect this three fold mission.
I have put to music, as I have done in years past, all twelve verses and recorded so far six songs. Below is a sneak peek to help get you started on memorizing as I finish up the next six songs. Also, the link to NorthCreek's webpage where you can view all twelve verses for the year and their theme.

25-28 April 2011 – You remember the reports…
"Officials have confirmed an EF4 tornado swept through areas of Limestone and Madison Counties, where they are continuing to survey damage. An EF4 tornado with wind speeds of 190 mph started by Browns Ferry and continued to track along U.S. 72 at Tanner to Harvest and Anderson Hills. A weaker tornado was also confirmed along Gooch Lane at Wall-Triana Highway in Madison. A total of seven tornadoes were confirmed across the state, and the Weather Channel reported six were EF4 tornadoes. At least 210 people have died in Alabama and nine people were killed in Madison County…"
Floods of assistance came into Alabama as we tried to recover from this devastating storm system that literally, "knocked us off our feet". But through our perseverance, and assistance, most of which came from private citizens, not government, we have recovered. It wasn't easy. It was hard work. But at least we didn't feel like we were alone. We had people that came to help. We had people that couldn't come, so they sent things that were desperately needed, and appreciated. We had people sending their prayers and they were certainly appreciated.
Now is your chance to give back, Team Redstone!
Oklahoma has been hit recently, not by one, but two major storms, that produced tornadoes that have devastated Moore, Shawnee, El Reno and the surrounding area.

One of the most awaited games of 2016, Battlefield 1 is set to release worldwide on October 21 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. Battlefield 1 is developed by EA DICE and published by Electronic Arts. It is the fourteenth installment in the famous Battlefield series.The first person military shooter game is going to face Call of Duty Infinite warfare which is of the same genre. Battlefield is currently leading the race to defeat its COD counterpart.
Battlefield 1 focuses on the World War 1 and it follows the stories of multiple soldiers. The developers have said the game will feature lesser known elements of the Great War. The game takes us back to the breathtaking war experience. It is inspired by real events.
Battlefield 1 is a typical first-person military shooter. Players can make best use of World War 1 weapons such as automatic and semi-automatic rifles, bolt action rifles, mustard gas and flamethrowers to combat enemies. Melee combat has been further improved. Melee weapons include sabers, trench clubs, shovels etc. The game includes some interesting stealth missions as well. The weapon customisation will be more dynamic. Players are going to take control of heavy armoured tanks, aircrafts, battleships, horses and zip line during the combat. There are several classes of soldiers in it such as assault class, Medic class, which is going to revive the allies, Scout class, Support class, Elite class and many more.
The game's multiplayer is set up to include 64 players. This will result in a more realistic battle arena. Multiplayer maps are very dynamic and they are to be based on locations around the world.
Battlefield 1 is powered by the Frostbite 3 Engine. In the trailer and the gameplay teasers, the graphics look absolutely stunning. They are eye catching and visually top-notch. The faces of the characters look real. The game also includes dynamic weather. During the single player as well as in the multiplayer, the weather too will change during the warfare.
Since the launch of its trailer, it has become one of the most awaited game. The response of the game is very positive. Its trailer was the most liked trailer on YouTube with over 1.9 million likes. EA is confident that the game will sell around 14 million units in the first year of its release.
Everything is set now for the release. Battlefield 1 is expected to provide a new dimension to military shooters. The Beta version has also released and it is receiving good reviews. The return of World War shooter to the next-gen is an exciting prospect. We still have to wait to make a final call on it, but it is definitely going to be a hell of a game.

O Sole Mio by Magali
Are you ready for Autumn already? Here in Quebec, we are enjoying a long lasting summer this year!
More than 40 degrees Celsius this week!! And the title of my page is inspired by this beautiful weather...
Today, I want to share a layout with a delicate touch of gold.
As you can see on the image below, you can add a beautiful gold look by spraying gold ink (here, I used Heidi Swapp Color Shine ink). Just let dry and add to your layout.
Here you can see the gold butterfly over a tag! This technique could be perfect for a card too.
Here are the UWS products I used:

25 Aug U.S. Soccer introduces coaching initiatives to target improvement in youth development standards
UPDATE (Oct. 30, 2015): On Sept. 15, US Club Soccer communicated how our organization would be implementing the new birth year registration and small-sided game mandates from the U.S. Soccer Federation. This communication was made to help our members plan for the future with significant time to prepare. It is accurate with respect to US Club Soccer competition structures until Aug. 1, 2016.
In the past weeks, there have been some interpretative changes in how competition age groups are labeled, and potentially the effect these changes will have once birth-year registration is introduced on Aug. 1, 2016. We understand that there are significant questions being raised in many areas – from parents, coaches and clubs – about intent, implementation and intended or unintended effect of various positions and changes.
US Club Soccer is in extensive dialogue with other youth organizations and with the U.S. Soccer Federation regarding these changes. We hope to have clear and concise responses to these questions in the coming weeks. We will communicate exactly what the appropriate age group labels will be and the implementation plan to most efficiently adjust to these Federation mandates, as soon as we are able.
Thank you for your patience as we work through this issue.
(Aug. 25, 2015): In another step towards improving long-term player development in the United States, the U.S. Soccer Federation is phasing in new mandatory standards related to small-sided games and birth-year registration, according to a statement released Monday night.
These coaching initiatives, which will be mandated to apply to all U.S. Soccer members by August 2017, include age groups based on birth-year registration (from January 1 to December 31) consistent with international standards. Simultaneously, U.S. Soccer will also mandate new small-sided and field size standards for U-6 through U-12 age groups.
- Click here for the official U.S. Soccer Federation announcement and presentation.
The mandate for birth-year registration represents a shift away from the current practice of teams being organized based on player birth dates from August to July. The change means that teams will in future be organized based on birth years. In most cases, player passcards will continue to be issued on an Aug. 1-July 31 competition season.
US Club Soccer is coordinating implementation with US Youth Soccer and other youth soccer organizations to ensure the smoothest and most efficient transition. US Club Soccer will update members on the timetable for implementation within the next few weeks.
A National Association member of the U.S. Soccer Federation, US Club Soccer is an organization committed to the development and support of soccer clubs in the United States.
US Club Soccer offers youth and adult registration, league- and cup-based competition platforms at the recreational and competitive levels, as well as a variety of other programming, including the Olympic Development Program-sanctioned id2 Program and Player Development Programs.
Through US Club Soccer, all of a club's programs – recreational, competitive and adult – are able to be united under one organizational umbrella, creating a "members for life" culture within each club. US Club Soccer is sponsored by Nike.

I fear that free speech is diminishing as a result of the chilling effect of mostly invisible restraints, even censorship. —Elder Dallin H. Oaks
OREM — Despite an "alarming trajectory" of incursions on religious freedom, there is hope for the future, Elder Dallin H. Oaks of the LDS Church's Quorum of the Twelve Apostles said Wednesday night.
"Religion is being marginalized to the point of censorship or condemnation," he said during the keynote address of Utah Valley University's Constitutional Symposium for Religious Freedom. About 4,000 attended the campus lecture at the UCCU Center.
"I believe we live in a time of diminishing freedom of speech," he added.
However, Elder Oaks listed numerous reasons why "my final conclusion is a message of hope."
"One reason for optimism is that the threats to religious speech and religious freedom have become so notorious that our citizens are beginning to become concerned," he said.
The address marked his first legal lecture since 1985, a year after Elder Oaks left the Utah Supreme Court for full-time service as an apostle in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
He didn't comment directly on any cases now in federal courts but criticized two legal techniques or arguments he said are being used to push religion out of the public square, drew a parallel between them and the U.S. Supreme Court's infamous 1857 Dred Scott decision denying judicial access to blacks, and offered advice for religious people and groups moving forward.
"Court contests will continue," he predicted. "Some decisions will help the effort of long-term conciliation and some will aggravate it. But in the long run, we have reason to hope that the guarantees and system of government established in our inspired Constitution will see us through these controversies as with others in times past."
Current concerns
"I am one of the many religious persons who have decried the alarming trajectory of theories, court decisions and executive actions that are diminishing the free exercise of religion," Elder Oaks said.
His address, given at the invitation of UVU's Center for Constitutional Studies, temporarily "calls me out of legal retirement," he said.
Elder Oaks resigned as a justice of the Utah Supreme Court in 1984. Nearly a year later, he kept a commitment for what became his last previous legal lecture, at DePaul University's Center for Church-State Studies. In that appearance, he made predictions that government accommodation of religious activities would increase, as would government regulation of religion, and that churches and religious people would need to protect their interests with increased legislative lobbying.
Some cases have run counter to his prediction, he said Wednesday, "but for me it represents a generally accurate forecast of the movement of church-state law in the 30 years since I offered it."
Wednesday's comments centered on current legal arguments "of long-range concern."
Elder Oaks maintained that freedom of speech and the free exercise of religion doubly protect religious liberty, but he said there are reasons to be concerned about the vitality of both.
"I fear that free speech is diminishing as a result of the chilling effect of mostly invisible restraints, even censorship."
He cited a number of examples but then added another, one "very personal to me," of the boycotts, firings and intimidation of those who backed Proposition 8 — defining marriage as between a man and a woman — in California. He mentioned the recent resignation of Mozilla's new CEO over a $1,000 donation he made to Proposition 8 six years ago.
Elder Oaks called it "another unfortunate example of bullying and intimidation that too often seeks to censor speech in the public square."
Two techniques
Elder Oaks criticized two legal techniques being used to push religion out of the public square.
The first is the idea of public reason, which he called an "incredible claim that laws cannot be based on religious morality" and that "religion is said to be a private rather than a public matter."
The assertion of public reason has figured in some recent court decisions on same-sex marriage, but Elder Oaks said he chose to talk about it because of its relationship to free speech.
"Religious voices, values and motivations are being crowded out of the public square," he said, because of the theory, first widely discussed in academia and now emerging in court opinions.
He also described "a companion technique" of dismissing religious values and arguments as irrational or reflecting "impermissible animus (hatred)."
"Accusations of bigotry or animus leveled at those who promote an adverse position have a chilling effect on speech and public debate on many important issues," he said. "Both freedom of speech and freedom of religion are jeopardized when their advocates are disparaged as being motivated by hatred."
A parallel
Free speech is demeaned if it is rejected in a public setting, like a court case, because of the assumed motives of the speaker or if the speech is disqualified based on stereotypes affixed to the speaker, he said.
Elder Oaks referred to the 1857 Dred Scott decision in which the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that blacks had no right of access to federal courts.
"I see a parallel between denying judicial access to a person on racial grounds and excluding public consideration of a person's opinions on religious grounds."
He added, "I submit that religious leaders and religiously motivated persons should have the same privileges of speech and participation as any other persons or leaders, and that churches should stand on at least as strong a footing as any other corporation when they enter the public square to participate in public policy debates."
Reasons for hope
In his view, religious people have multiple reasons for hope.
"I am optimistic in the long run," he said, because of the guarantees of the First Amendment, the Religious Freedom Restoration Act and the growing concern of Americans.
He also hailed new efforts to bring leaders of different faiths together for the common cause of defending religious liberty. Some efforts "are crossing denominational lines that were insurmountable a few years ago."
He also cited the advent and success of religious freedom advocacy organizations, academic centers on religion and the law at major universities, professorships or programs in religious studies, as well as journals on law and religion.
Elder Oaks said his last cause for hope is rooted in a belief in the principles of mutual understanding and accommodation.
"In this circumstance of contending religious rights and civil rights, all parties need to learn to live together in a community of goodwill, patience and understanding."
He cautioned against extreme, polarizing voices on either side.
"I believe that in time, with patience and goodwill, contending constitutional rights and conflicting personal values can be brought into mutually respectful accommodation."
Wednesday night's audience included Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah; Bishop John C. Wester, the Catholic bishop of Salt Lake City; three of Elder Oaks' colleagues from the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles — Elders Jeffrey R. Holland, D. Todd Christofferson and Quentin L. Cook; and Judge Thomas Griffith of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit.

The earliest Owl copy I have is from May, 1902. It makes me wonder, since I have copies from several months of the same year, if it was published monthly or just what the schedule was.
Look at the list of athletes - my grandfather's brother was the Treasurer of the B.A.A. (Boys' Athletic Association?)
And also a member of the Senate. I think all four boys participated in the Senate but it seems that Leon was probably the most active.
This reminds me of social networking of today - what are the alumni up to? I wonder what a P.G. course is?
Look, it's an ad for undertakers again! And not just one but two, side-by-side!
This cracks me up - SWELLEST???
I'm puzzled about the term Fresno Boy - my grandmother used to call my grandfather Boy.
And then we're on to December, 1903.
Here's The Owl staff in December, 1903.
Whoa! Wonder why they're crossed out? Was Leon upset that he wasn't on the staff? Did he cross off those he knew?
This must be a reverse psychology marketing ploy - PLEASE STAY AWAY?
I'd love to visit the Big Busy Drug Store for some hot chocolate with whipped cream. I'll bet it really was the "best ever".
More to come!

Selena Gomez was born on July 22, 1992, in Grand Prairie, Texas, to a 16-year-old mother. Her mother was a stage actress throughout Selena's youth, which led to her eventual interest in the entertainment industry.
Gomez's first role was as the character Gianna on "Barney and Friends," which she held for 14 episodes until the producers released her because she was too old for the show. She made her first appearance on a Disney program in 2006 in a guest appearance on "The Suite Life of Zack & Cody." She was later given a small recurring role on "Hannah Montana" before landing the lead roles of Alex Russo on "Wizards of Waverly Place." Once she was cast in the show, she and her family relocated to Hollywood.
Between 2007 and 2012, Gomez released three albums as part of her pop group Selena Gomez & the Scene. After starring in many Disney productions, Gomez was cast in her first mature role in 2012 as part of "Spring Breakers." Gomez scored her first top 10 single with "Come & Get It" in 2013, off her first solo studio album "Stars Dance." The song is Gomez's highest charting single to date, as of 2015.

ANSYS BladeModeler software is a specialized, easy-to-use tool for the rapid 3-D design of rotating machinery components. Incorporating ANSYS, Inc.'s extensive turbomachinery expertise into a user-friendly graphical environment, the software is used to design axial, mixed-flow and radial blade components in applications such as pumps, compressors, fans, blowers, turbines, expanders, turbochargers, inducers and others.
ANSYS BladeModeler can take existing blade geometry designs created in other tools, and prepare the design data for rapid or detailed simulation and analysis or the meanline sizing tools from PCA Engineers that are integrated in ANSYS BladeModeler can be used to provide initial blade geometry designs for subsequent analysis and optimization. In either case, an initial blade geometry design can be further modified and extended using the rich set of tools and functions for designing rotating machinery blades within ANSYS BladeModeler. All accomplished in a user environment tailored to rotating machinery, with an intuitive interface and using industry-specific language that blade designers expect.
Integration with ANSYS DesignModeler means that ANSYS BladeModeler provides much more than just blade geometry. All the features of ANSYS DesignModeler are also provided, giving users complete 3-D geometry modeling capabilities and allowing them to add any number of geometric features, such as hub metal, blade fillets, cut-offs and trims, or to combine blade designs with other non-bladed components, like housings, blade roots or complex 3-D tip regions. These non-bladed components can be created directly or imported using CAD connections to all major CAD vendors, setting no limits on the designs that can assembled and assessed.
ANSYS BladeModeler provides the essential link between interactive blade design, mesh generation, and advanced simulation including fluid dynamics and structural mechanics. Its full integration into ANSYS Workbench brings parametric, persistent connections to other ANSYS applications such as ANSYS Vista TF for rapid 2-D through-flow analysis, ANSYS TurboGrid for mesh generation, ANSYS CFD for full 3-D flow analysis and ANSYS Mechanical for stress and modal analysis, all in a single CAE environment.

I spent some time reading the local blogs and checking in with my Facebook friends and am noting some interesting comments in posts.
Let's start with our friends at Orange Punch, where Steve Greenhut has a post about how Conservatives will be spending considerable time in the wilderness. No disagreement there. But then Stephen wrote this about the New York Times:
"That contempt seemed evident several times, notably when Tucker Carlson, not a bad guy but not exactly the epitome of a deep thinker himself, argued that conservatives need to focus more on facts and suggested that the NY Times at least cared about spelling peoples' names right. That elicited a huge moan from the crowd, and the moans were repeated when he tried to point out that the Times gathers news pretty well.
That's just stupid. Of course the Times has an ideological bent, and sometimes, especially with the "analysis†pieces, you have to wear pretty heavy ideological blinders as you read. And it can have an arrogant edge. But even in the sorry state the newspaper business is in just now, it still does the best job I know of at gathering and reporting the news. It's far from the most slanted paper in the country. To deny that is simply to let your ideological proclivities overcome simple observation and deny yourself a valuable source of information — and perhaps to identify yourself as a yahoo."
I actually think the Register does a pretty good job covering Orange County, but to read the editorial pages with all the right wing columnists nit has and no left voice whatsoever, Steven's comment I bolded is a great "pot calling the kettle black" moment.
Over at Red County, Matt Cunningahm and gang have a new debate tactic; you just can't be for or against something…there are long hard choices now. Read the comments from this post on DC schools. And Matt joins Rush Limbaugh and Jonah Goldberg as another conservative who hopes Obama fails. Party before country fellas!Â
Matt wrote: "I shake my head every time I hear a Republican politician or commentator, out of misplaced sense of politesse, avers they "want the President to succeed."
I want Obama to fail, and the fail spectacularly, for the reasons Goldberg puts forth. I want the economy to recover and grow, I want America to succeed, and I want liberty to succeed — and therefore I want Obama's new New Deal to be an utter and obvious failure, sooner rather than later."
Is it me, or is that…unpatriotic?
Over at the Orange Juice Blog, Art Pedroza celebrates the new rulings about massage parlors in Santa Ana by slurring Asian woman using a phrase "me love you long time" in a graphic on his post (I'm not linking to it). That's right, Art believes every Asian woman that works in a massage parlor is a prostitute. And why he advocates for these businesses in his city is beyond me. My favorite part of the post was the comments where Art suggests to Matt Cunningham that he needs a masage to relax. May all your endings be happy ones Art.
Not to be excluded, Sean Mill, whom I like, rags on us for not publishing a story about Janet Nguyen funding a $170,000 clay Tennis court in Santa Ana. OK, Sean..it's pork. But its pork bringing a new tennis court to a city your buddy Art complained about not having enough parks and playgrounds when he ran for council. Its pork that will get kids off the street into a youth recreation program perhaps. For a blog that highlights every shooting and blames it on the current Mayor and City Council, how is adding a tennis court a bad thing? Of, and this isn't cheerleading for Janet, but she did do a good thing for the kids of Santa Ana. Who knows if the Williams sisters would have ever amounted to anything if there wasn't a tennis court in Compton.
I laughed at this post from Jon Fleischman at the Flash Report complaining about the Norman Mineta Airport in San Jose.
"Who is Norm Mineta? He is a politician of course. Mineta was Mayor of San Jose, served for many years in Congress, and also served as a token Democrat in President George W. Bush's cabinet, serving as Secretary of Transportation.
This practice of "idolizing" politicians by naming public works in their honor (freeways, bridges, airport terminals, and more) are misguided.
Government service, as a representative, is laudable and should be commended. But public works, paid for with the peoples money, shouldn't bear the name of politicians. And for those who think it's okay to do so postumously, let me assure you that Mineta is very much alive and kicking."
Secretary Mineta was the person response for grounding all aircraft on 9/11 when it became obvious we were under attack with terrorists using jets as missiles. I think his action probably saved lives.  But with the statement I've bolded, I wonder if Jon thinks we should change the name of Reagan International Airport in DC. In fact, I sure hope Jon sends this post to members of the Ronald Reagan Legacy Project. Details on this organization below.
The mission of Ronald Reagan Legacy Project (RRLP), according to the organization's web site, is "to honor and memorialize the historic achievements of President Ronald Reagan. It aims to do so by naming at least one notable public landmark in each state and all 3067 counties after the 40th president…. In recognition of President Reagan's leadership role in the defeat of communism, the Project also seeks to honor his memory in formerly communist countries."
And finally, this post from Jon Fleischman in the FlashReport.
3-3-2009 1:02 pm
This random thought just crossed my mind as I am traveling on the rental car shuttle at the Oakland Airport…
It would appear that President Obama is going to govern this nation as a hardcore left-wing ideologue. In some respects I am jeolous because our last President certainly didn't govern as a hardcore right-winger. Not even close. I think I feel kind of… cheated…
So do we Jon. So do we. But to say Bush wasn't a conservative is a flat out lie. He ran as a compassionate conservative. But like all Reopublicans when elected to a position of power, Bush failed to govern by the principles of Republicanism and Conservatism. You worked for his election — twice. Compared to Bush, McCain was a moderate. Better do your homework next time around.

The Illinois Senate [official website] joined with the Illinois House of Representatives [official website] Wednesday to pass a bill [HB 183, text] that permits state residents to carry concealed firearms with limited restrictions. The bill prohibits carrying a firearm in schools, courthouses and government buildings and has restrictions based on mental health. Prospective carriers must be 21 or older, pay a fee, possess a valid weapon ownership identification card and have a clean criminal record. Last week, Illinois Governor Pat Quinn [official website] reportedly leveraged his veto power in an attempt to insert more restrictive proscriptions into the bill, including limiting lawful possession to one firearm per person. Illinois lawmakers, however, voted to override [AP report] Quinn's proposed amendments by large margins in both the House and the Senate. The bill's passage follows a ruling by the US Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit [official website] that invalidated [JURIST report] Illinois' previous concealed carry prohibition as violative of the Second Amendment [text]. Illinois now joins the other 49 states in approving some type of concealed weapon.
Passage of the Illinois bill is the latest development in the ongoing Second Amendment and gun control debate. In April the US Supreme Court declined to hear a challenge to a New York state gun law [JURIST report] requiring those who desire to carry a concealed handgun to show they have a special reason before they can obtain a license. In March Utah Governor Gary Herbert vetoed a bill [JURIST report] that would have allowed people to carry an unloaded, concealed gun without a permit. Also in March the US Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit ruled [JURIST report] that Maryland can require concealed-carry handgun permit applicants to provide a "good and substantial reason" for wanting to carry a gun outside the home.

She Wants to Get a Few Things Off Her Chest
November 10, 2004
Now that, as a nation, we have dodged our "doom", I still have a few things to get off my chest. I agree with the editor that most of us can now "resume our lives" which, in reality, if one thinks about it, were never disrupted. Yes, the electoral process has become a "buzz saw" of propaganda machines spewing rhetoric aimed at destroying the opposition and it is wonderful to be free of that. But we are at war and there is nothing normal about that. Especially a war that I and, incidentally, a majority of the world thought should have never been started and, unfortunately, it is not going to end well.

Arbor Day Dedicated to Memory of Steinbacher
By Mary O'Keefe
April 5, 2007
LA CRESCENTA — This year's Annual Arbor Day event, held last Saturday at Two Strike Memorial Park, was a poignant celebration. Those in attendance were painfully reminded of the ultimate sacrifice a local family made, having lost their son who was serving in Iraq. Hosted by Crescenta Valley Town Council and the L.A. County Department of Parks and Recreation, the day's focus was on Nick Steinbacher, a resident of La Crescenta who had been in Iraq only a short time when the vehicle he was traveling in was hit by a road side bomb on December 10, 2006, ending his life at the age of 22. Although somber in presentation, the day was a time not just to mourn the loss of a community hero but to celebrate this young man's love of life, dedication to his country and the honor that he has brought, not only to his family but to his hometown.

November 9, 2006
Paying tribute to those who have served in the military, the Crescenta Valley High School JROTC sponsored a pre-Veterans' Day assembly at the school last Friday where traditions were shared and taught. The JROTC program is the only one in the greater Crescenta Valley area, which includes La Cañada Flintridge. Lt. Col. David Worley is the mentor for the program at the school. There are about 75 students who are part of the school's JROTC program. Last week's assembly began with the presentation of the colors and the Pledge of Allegiance.

La Crescenta Resident Kidnapped in Iraq
By Mary O'Keefe
August 3, 2006
Raad Ommar, 56, a longtime La Crescenta resident, was a victim of kidnapping in Baghdad on July 31, according to published reports. Ommar is the chief executive officer of Iraqi American Chamber of Commerce and Industry. He moved back to Iraq in 2003 after the toppling of Saddam Hussein's regime. According to reports, gunmen wearing military uniforms and traveling in sport utility vehicles entered a Baghdad business in the afternoon. The initial target was thought to be a cell phone company.
'forgotten' battle of the Iraq war
May 19, 2012
Konrad Ludwig grew up in La Cañada Flintridge and as a teenager, enlisted in the Army. Ludwig saw combat during the American troop surge in a hotly contested part of Baghdad known as Sadr City. In August, Ludwig expects to publish his combat memoir, "Stryker: The Siege of Sadr City," and is using the online fundraising tool Kickstarter to help cover publishing costs. He answered questions from the La Cañada Valley Sun via email. Sun: What prompted you to enlist in the military?
Students send Christmas greetings to soliders in Iraq
January 10, 2008
Recently, students from La Cañada Elementary School?s sixth grade class wrote holiday messages to be sent to service men and woman in Iraq. The cards were designed, printed and donated by local merchant Prinefex. A few samples: ? Dear Army dudes, Thank you for fighting for our country. You?re good at your job. Despite hard conditions, keep going. Have a happy holiday season. ? Merry Christmas and a happy 2008. Thank your for fighting for U.S. Fight on, dudes!

No. 1 to 75: The Final 2017 WBSC Baseball World Rankings Presented By ENEOS
No. 1 to 75: The Final 2017 WBSC Baseball World Rankings Presented By ENEOS
LAUSANNE, Switzerland -- The World Baseball Softball Confederation (WBSC) today unveiled the final 2017 standings in the WBSC Baseball World Rankings Presented by ENEOS, which weigh a country's National Team performance (from U-12 to Professional) in WBSC-sanctioned international competitions over a four-year period (2014-2017).
Marking a truly global competitive balance, baseball/softball is the only sport with nations from the Americas (North-, South- and the Caribbean), Asia, Europe and Oceania in the Top 10 of the respective world rankings.
Japan remains the top-ranked nation for a third straight year, a position held since November 2014.
USA Baseball squads, however, were the most successful in 2017, sweeping the world championships -- the U-12 Baseball World Cup, U-18 Baseball World Cup and World Baseball Classic -- to earn a record high 2,127 annual ranking points.
Mexico and Australia both hit historical highs in 2017, climbing to No. 6 and No. 7 in the world, respectively.
Israel made the biggest jump in 2017, advancing from No. 41 to No. 19 while defeating four Top 10 nations -- Chinese Taipei, Cuba, Korea and Netherlands -- in their World Baseball Classic debut.
Most rankings points earned in 2017
Biggest Gainers in 2017
New Countries Entering the World Rankings in 2017
Countries Falling out of the World Rankings in 2017
The official 2018 international baseball calendar features two world championships that will have the biggest impact on this year's men's baseball world rankings: the U-15 Baseball World Cup (10-19 Aug.) in Panama City, Panama, and the U-23 Baseball World Cup (19-28 Oct.) in Managua, Nicaragua.
The Top 12 nations in the 2018 end-of-the-year WBSC Baseball World Rankings will qualify for the WBSC Premier12 2019, the men's professional baseball National Team global championship and Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 qualifier.
The WBSC Baseball World Rankings will next be calculated in the coming weeks, as points earned in 2014 are set to expire.
The web-based version and methodology of the WBSC World Rankings Presented by ENEOS can be found at www.wbsc.org/rankings.

OK! Hopefully inside this 3rd edition of my story I should hit modern times.
Ok, so I spent some more time on Golden Valley server, then I moved into a nice little town called 'Vagrant'. It was a lovely town, with nice people who always lent a hand when they could. I thought i'd spend a long time in Vagrant, but a rather bad event happened: Due to Vagrant being rather high up in the hills, water was only accessable via underground water sources(aka wells and fountains), and Vagrant ran on 2 wells, but they eventually decayed and water ran scarcely low in Vagrant, causing everyone(including myself) to have to move out.
So,yeah, I hated the thought of missing Vagrant, such a sweet little town. So i went around in search of new villagers so I could re-establish Vagrant elsewhere. I ended up Running into a player called durr, we were both very keen to set up a village and we went hiking for a while to find a nice place where we could make a good village.
we eventually came across a spot with small lakes running around the land, so we setup there and we called our place 'New Vagrant'.
Quite a few people joined our village, and we grew very quickly into a bustling town.
Ok...gonna save all the crap lil' details and fast forward by about 4 more months(leading us to 6months away from September 2010).
New Vagrant is now a big village, with peopel commuting through for trade every day of the week and more and more land being used for our village. But then came along a few troublemakers, and someone stole their boat apparently, and our entire village got the blame for it! so these ideotic troublemakers decide to trash our entire village up, we lost players, houses, paths and roads, even our own boats were stolen.
So over the course of about 2 weeks all the villagers left. leaving just 3 of us:
and a guy named Cragos.
Cragos had been around New Vagrant the whole time, he lived on our outskirts but finally joined the village. he was a nice player, and we got on well.
After another few days Durr decided he couldnt stand our village get trashed anymore, especialyl since GM's wouldnt do anything about it apparently because the land isnt technically ours unless we build huge walls around it(though if we do that we get banned for trapping players. ideot GM's)
so Durr stopped playing wurm. for good. and me and cragos decided to leave the village behind and seek out a new home for ourselves.
And so we split up on our own seperate ways and 4 months went by.
(2months till september 2010 which will be modern day for when im blogging this)
Ok. so i'm living in a place called bottleneck bay now and cragos comes along and we are all happy to see each other and we chew the fat for a while. Then we decide ''Hell! why dont we go premium and Make New Vagrant 'again'!''.
Cragos sees this as a good idea and we embark on our journeys to Freedom.
Cragos left a bit earlier than me and ends up camping out in my old village of Silent Hill(oh the frigging irony!)
about 3 or 4 weeks later when im prepp'd and ready to go, i leave for freedom for the 2nd time in my wurmian life. I arrive there and bump into an old pal of mine from long ago named kyuuka. Kyuuka decided to follow me and cragos on our journey to remake New Vagrant.
After about 4 days of sailing around the server aimlessly we hit shores on the south side and decide to call the place home.
Now the final 2 month gap is spent making New Vagrant into a full-blown village on the freedom server. and Kyuuka leaves about halfway through due to a dispute over horses and who owns them.
Now! YIPPEEEE! we hit modern day september the 12th, 2010. New Vagrant is still under construction but all goes according to plan and we have 6 or 7 villagers now.
From now on my wurm posts will just be date-logged and will be about my times in wurm. I hope you have all enjoyed my 3part blog of surviving in wurm.
just remember one thing that a wise player once said:
''Wurm isn't about surviving in the wilderness. It's about starving in the wilderness and getting eaten by wolves.'' - famous words after a ressurection of a player.
Keep looking out for my frequent blogs people! :D

HALLANDALE, Fla. — In the opinion of Gary Gregory, the black cat that has been hanging around Snow Chief's barn at Gulfstream Park the last couple of days doesn't qualify as a bad-luck black cat.
"He's got some white on one foot, so that makes him all right," Gregory said. "He better have that white, otherwise he wouldn't stand a chance with Mel around."
Gregory is an assistant trainer for Mel Stute, who was to arrive here from Los Angeles Wednesday night to supervise final preparations for Snow Chief's appearance in the $500,000 Florida Derby, the first of seven major races leading up to the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs May 3.
With three straight stakes wins, Snow Chief will be favored Saturday against a large field of possibly 14 opponents.
"We didn't scare anybody off, did we?" Gregory said.
Although Snow Chief's three wins--in the Hollywood Futurity, the California Breeders' Champion Stakes at Santa Anita and the El Camino Real Derby at Bay Meadows--have been impressive, he is still a California colt trying to win on a softer race track than he's seen on the West Coast.

On Gleaning and Dumpster Diving
English 103
Prof. McNett
On Gleaning and Dumpster Diving
There are two jobs that no children ever want to do when they grow up. Not one child tells their parents, I want to be a gleaner when I grow up,' or I want to be a dumpster diver.' Every child grows up thinking they are going to be a doctor or an astronaut when they get their parents age and they are going to be rich. Wouldn't there be something wrong with a kid who wanted to be something other than the best? As I have read more about dumpster diving and gleaning, I have began to wonder if it is really that bad. Why shouldn't a child want to grow up to be either the dumpster diver or the gleaner?
When I was in grade school I remember arguing with my friends about who had the nicest bike or whose dad had the best car. All we wanted was to be the best and have the best, but the more I learn, read, and see from experience, the more I find that those material or monetary possessions mean very little. Today many people who work hard and find that job that will provide them enough money to live comfortably for the rest of their lives often lose track of what is important. Gregg Easterbrook has shown in many instances that in most cases money has not proven to be the key to happiness. In the end that's all that everyone is looking for too, happiness. If it is not found with money, where is it?
I believe happiness can sometimes be found in poverty. After seeing people scrounge through trash just to survive or go gleaning through the stuff that's not good enough for anyone else, I began to realize what is most important. It is definitely not any material possession that can be bought. It is something that I believe every person must find for themselves. Sometimes it is family or other relationships, and other times it's just any type of work a person finds gratifying. In any instance, it almost always involves being around and communicating with other people. One person in a...

Ensure that document matches include...
...all of these word(s):
...and optionally include these word(s):
...but do not have these word(s):
Enter your phrase:
Enter the first few characters of a word:
There are 2 types of basic queries: Terms and Phrases.
A Term is a single word search.
A Phrase would wrap a string of words in quotes and find matches on the extact string.
Boolean Operators
You can combine basic queries with Boolean operators to form a more complex query. Boolean operators define the relationships between Terms or Phrases. Our search supports the following Boolean operators: AND, "+", OR, NOT and "-". Please note that Boolean operators must be all uppercase.
example search: default AND document
This is the default operator. It will be used if there is no Boolean operator between two terms. For example:
default document is the same as default AND document. In this case both terms need to exist within a listing to find a match on that listing.The + character is synonymous with using AND.
example search: default OR document
In this case just one of the terms needs to exist within a listing to find a match on that listing.
example search: default NOT "document type"
The NOT operator excludes documents that contain the term (or phrase) after NOT. So a listing match would have to include the word default but not the phrase "document type". The - character is synonymous with using NOT.
Wildcard/Prefix queries
You can perform "wildcard" or "prefix" queries using the '*' operator. Whereas all of the previous search found exact matches on the whole term or phrase, a wildcard search will find partial matches.
example search: ehr*
This query will match all documents containing words beginning with the prefix 'ehr' like the word Ehrlichia.

HIV-1 Trans Infection of CD4+ T Cells by Professional Antigen Presenting Cells
Department of Infectious Diseases and Microbiology, University of Pittsburgh Graduate School of Public Health, Pittsburgh, PA 15261, USA
Received 28 February 2013; Accepted 9 April 2013
Academic Editors: M. Clementi and Z. Stamataki
Copyright © 2013 Charles R. Rinaldo. This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.
Since the 1990s we have known of the fascinating ability of a complex set of professional antigen presenting cells (APCs; dendritic cells, monocytes/macrophages, and B lymphocytes) to mediate HIV-1 trans infection of CD4+ T cells. This results in a burst of virus replication in the T cells that is much greater than that resulting from direct, cis infection of either APC or T cells, or trans infection between T cells. Such APC-to-T cell trans infection first involves a complex set of virus subtype, attachment, entry, and replication patterns that have many similarities among APC, as well as distinct differences related to virus receptors, intracellular trafficking, and productive and nonproductive replication pathways. The end result is that HIV-1 can sequester within the APC for several days and be transmitted via membrane extensions intracellularly and extracellularly to T cells across the virologic synapse. Virus replication requires activated T cells that can develop concurrently with the events of virus transmission. Further research is essential to fill the many gaps in our understanding of these trans infection processes and their role in natural HIV-1 infection.


text: As if this matter cannot be separated from him, while interviewing Park Yoochun, Han Jimin's name cannot be left out. Even though the playful couple has a sad love story in 'Rooftop Prince', the perfect harmony between them led to the viewers' reaction 'It will be really great if they also date each other in real life'. "I can already get the right feelings after practicing the lines with Han Jimin once or twice!" Accepted the role in 'Rooftop Prince' right after finishing jTBC drama 'Padam Padam… The sound of his and her heartbeats', Han Jimin was not in her best conditions due to the cumulative fatigue. Park Yoochun looked back at that time "At the test shooting, I met Jimin noona for the first time so it was very awkward. We also didn't have a chance to talk with each other a lot. Fortunately, at the first shooting, because there were the ' 3 courtiers' as well so it was not awkward anymore". "Jimin noona and I had lots of scenes together. Because we must be in tune in those scenes, I was worried a lot. However, Jimin noona's personality makes other people around her feel at ease easily. Soon, I felt comfortable around her too. Because we feel really comfortable with each other, our acting becomes in tune well. We only need to say our lines once or twice in order to get the feelings. Acting became easier." After reading Han Jimin's interview article, Park Yoochun felt embarassed and said "Noona has praised me too much". Then, Park Yoochun revealed "Jimin noona was the one who pointed out for me the difficult points in the script or the lines, solved those problems and told me about her own opinion too. As a sunbae in acting, she has guided my footsteps to make acting easier to me." "In the morning when we received the new script and before shooting the first scene, Jimin noona would call me and arrange a meeting where we could have a talk with the director. There would be a lot of things I want to consult but noona gradually helped me get through all of them. One after another, she has helped me a lot and I am very thankful for that." "Between me and Han Jimin? Even I think that we look good together." As we spoke about Han Jimin's title 'The actress that looks good with most male actors', Park Yoochun also acknowledged it "She is an actress whose appearance would go well with others". Moreover, he also knew about the public's response 'Park Yoochun and Han Jimin look good together'. Park Yoochun confessed "When looking at captures from the broadcast or at the photos that we took together, I also think that we really look good together". "In real life, noona is playful but she is also graceful. She has the image of a puppy. She is the one that you would want to protect. If she made my heart flutter, I wouldn't be able to act that naturally with her. However, because we are so close, holding hands even become natural between us. While filming, I went to a shop that I haven't visited for a long time and the owner told me that it seemed like there was something between me and Han Jimin. Even before I get to answer, the stylist who was present at that time has said 'There can't be anything between these two'. In real life, I don't have that feeling for her too." Furthermore, we asked the 27-year-old young man Park Yoochun about dating and love. He gave us a surprising answer "If I have girlfriend, I am going to date her publicly. Even our CEO has revealed his relationship, hasn't he" ( the CEO of C-JeS entertainment, Baek Chang joo is in a relationship with the actress Song Jihyo). Park Yoochun said "I have thought about this before. If there is someone who I can take to visit my father's grave, I will naturally open our relationship to the public." "Never once have I introduced my girlfriend to my parents. While my father was ill, I have thought that 'I should meet someone quickly and introduce her to my father'. However, meeting anyone would not be easy. After my father passed away, that thought became more serious. This is like the story of every celebrity. The desire to date publicly? (laugh) I will open my relationship to the public before it is spreaded as a scandal. However, it won't be a problem that is solved easily. I will need to be careful about this."

Free Legal Help Articles
Rocket Lawyer offers free legal help and information on a wide variety of topics, including business formation, estate planning, family issues, and many more.
All topics > Children
Children are a top priority and you want to do everything you can to protect them from life's unpredictable twists and turns. The good news is that family laws provide supports and safeguards so that you can have a little peace of mind and get back to enjoying time with the special people who make your world go around.
If you're starting a family, there are some forms that can help you along this exciting path, like a child care authorization form, which allows a child caregiver to make major decisions while you're at work, and a child care contract for when you invite a nanny to care for your children.
Depending on your situation, you might also need to tackle child custody and child support issues, like calculating how much you'll receive or need to pay. Because every state has its own laws, and because child support and custody situations change based on everybody's situation, you might want to do a little research or even speak with a family law attorney to make sure you're doing everything you can for your children.
If you need a little more in-depth guidance on some of these topics, check out the articles below on child support and child custody. We can also help you find a lawyer who specializes in family law matters.

Law School Admissions / Re: REJECTED, ETC. TODAY« on: May 08, 2010, 11:35:11 PM »
I think this thread fits me well. I have been feeling so down getting lower marks as well being rejected in applications that I have tried applying. But still I have to move on because that is the only way I can recover.
