Astronomers Admit: We Were Wrong—100 Billion Habitable Earth-Like Planets In Our Galaxy Alone
From website hespaceacademy.org
Estimates by astronomers indicate that there could be more than 100 BILLION Earth-like worlds in the Milky Way that could be home to life. Think that's a big number? According to astronomers, there are roughly 500 billion galaxies in the known universe, which means there are around 50,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (5×1022) habitable planets. That's of course if there's just ONE universe.

Sam and Liz can be counted on to provide an array of top-quality consulting, training and coaching to leaders, teams and organizations committed to innovation, effectiveness, and sustainable growth. Integrating the Enneagram with other time-tested, creative approaches, their work displays a passion and dedication rarely seen, but easily felt.
- Ginger Lapid-Bogda, Ph.D., author of the "Enneagram in Business," "What Type of Leader Are You?" and "Bringing Out The Best in Everyone You Coach."
Thank you for such an insightful meeting about team dynamics. It's really nice to have the tools and skills to understand how and why people function in the ways they do.
"Thank you so much for your help with our workshop. We have using the tools and suggestions you gave us and having fun with it too."
"Our company has benefited greatly from the work you did with us. We all have a better understanding of ourselves and each other. We have all been more patient with each other's feelings and now have a common understanding that we can fall back on when things get stressful. Our boss keeps the little cards you gave us on his desk at all times. I think that if a big obstacle came in our way we could sit down and discuss it with the Enneagram as a guide and probably get a better outcome. He has really made an effort, especially with our designer, to give her the feedback that she needs to feel good and do it in a way that is not critical or judgmental. I think it is important to revisit the Enneagram when it has benefited us so much
"It was helpful to learn more about myself and my colleagues."
"I don't know what you do but every time I meet with you, I feel safe and can open up and get clarity on what is working and not working in my professional and personal life."

More energy through space in your head and around you
People need space
Space is very important to uss. Especially in todays modern world, it is important to regularly take some time for yourself. To take a breather, so to say. Just leave the hassle of everyday behind and get all your thougts and feelings on the right track again. It's not for nothing that more and more people get a burnout nowadays. Our society is demanding. Take good care of yourself, and make sure that your surroundings and feelings don't contribute to your low energy levels.
Natural cures against stress
Of course, you could run to your medicine cabinet when you're feeling stressed or tired. But it's all too easy to get dependend on medicine to keep up your energy levels. And there is a good alternative, that is handed to us on a wooden plate by mother nature. There are more than enough natural remedies to help you deel with stress, fatigue and everyday pressure. Examples include chamomille tea, valerian or flower remedies that can target the things and feelings you are struggling with. Nature is lending you a helping hand. You just have to take it. Something we seem to have forgotten in our current society. Want to know more about natural ways to boost your energy levels? Check the online knowledgebase DigiBach.nl
Space around you frees up your mind
Clutter means stress. In a messy living room, it is difficult to relax fully at the end of a demanding day. That's why it is a good idea to get rid of all the stuff that you rarely or never use. Of course, it is not an option to just throw all of these items away. That's not what I'm suggesting here: just get rid of them in your daily surrounding. Use your space to live, not to store stuff.
It is very common to rent a self storage box for all these items that are otherwise just "in the way". In this day and age, you can also solve this problem via your smartphone: with a virtual solution to storage space. In the Netherlands, this is available in for example Breda, Vianen and Spijkenisse. In the US, you could turn to provider MakeSpace.
Another advantage of this way of storing your stuff, is that you allways have a digital overview available of everything you've stored. So you never have to worry again whether something is in your storage space or not. Just check your app and you know.

Whale Shark Season in La Paz is here and we're off to an exciting start! Between October and April every year these amazing gentle giants return to the Sea of Cortez after many months of migration.
The Whale Shark is indeed a shark, but don't worry, it doesn't want to eat you or me. Like a whale, they are filter feeders, and find their way back to the Sea of Cortez to fatten up in the plankton and krill rich waters. Commonly known as the Gulf of California, the Sea of Cortez stretches 700 miles, although the gentle giants are known to only feed near the middle of the spit of land that extends out in front of La Paz, known as the Magote. Topography shows a drop off in the Magote changing the depth from 6-10 feet in the shallows to a quick drop of 22-33 feet. The currents caused by this shelf in the ocean floor results in the common ocean phenomenon called plankton blooms, which are large concentrations of phytoplankton, microscopic plants that float in the upper, sunlit layers of the water. And for the whale shark, this means dinner time.
Whale sharks are the largest known species of fish, growing up to 41.5' (the largest on record), and weighing in at about 40 tons. The whale sharks found in Baja are typically considered teenagers, about 20-30 years old, and 25-30 feet long. To put that in perspective, consider these teens are the length of a small school bus with mouths as wide as a car.
Unlike an actual whale, the whale shark does not breach for air, which can make it difficult to locate initially, but unusual wave breaks, a large dorsal fin, and the enlarged darkened mass gliding through the waters are easy giveaways. Once the massive white-spotted fish – usually found in schools of three to five, has been located, divers should be prepared to jump in the water. Depending on whether the shark is eating vertically or as it moves, a brisk swim may be necessary.
Once plentiful in the oceans of the world, the whale sharks are considered an endangered species and receive staunch protection under international and Mexican law. While it is legal to swim with them as they feed, strict rules are enforced. With three feeding zones in the area, only a limited number of boats can be in each zone at one time, and up to six guests with a snorkel instructor may be in the water surrounding one of the giants, keeping a distance of at least six feet. No SCUBA diving gear is permitted in the feeding areas.
Don't forget: you present far more danger to the fish than the fish does to you. Lotions or sunscreens can can create a life-threatening infection on their slick sensitive skin so it is imperative not to touch them. As they move slowly and docilely nearby, it may be difficult to resist this urge, but it's important to do our part in keeping their numbers from declining.
Join us on an amazing adventure with this incredible fish. For more information, check out http://www.bajawhaleshark.com/.

[ Between the episodes of the ever-growing anime that is Fairy Tail, I managed to squeeze in another. So, please enjoy this newest review of the Netflix exclusive, The Seven Deadly Sins! ]
When you mix a group of people that have special powers together, often times they are given a collective name. Just look at the X-men, Powerpuff Girls, or Crystal Gems, for example. This rule tends to also apply in the anime world, specifically the Kingdom of Leones. The Seven Deadly Sins in their world are a group of seven people with special powers as well.
While the story is simplistic, it's the characters that really make it stand out. A young girl, introduced as simply Elizabeth, is seeking out the Sins to save her family. She comes across a quaint tavern and meets the owner, Meliodas, and his talking pig named Hawk. Events unfold quickly as the pair are forced to face down a strong opponent who claims to be a Holy Knight. Elizabeth is revealed to be the third princess of the kingdom, and Meliodas the leader of the Sins.
Promising to help her on her quest, Meliodas travels with her using his moving tavern pig-vehicle. They quickly meet up with Diane, one of the Sins who also happens to be of the giant race. They rescue another Sin, Ban, from prison. Well, Ban actually rescues himself, due to his inability to feel pain and heal extremely fast. It's revealed that there is a new generation of Holy Knights that, instead of training for many years, can drink a potion to give them power. Ban's actions cause a Holy Knight in training, Jericho, to take on these new powers.
As the group gathers the other Sins, it becomes apparent that these new Holy Knights are connected to a rather sinister plot by those that have overthrown the kingdom. This was the original reason for Elizabeth seeking the sins – her father and family are in danger due to the Holy Knights coup. Besides the coup, the usurpers seek to bring demons into the world to use as tools. But the new Holy Knights cannot control their powers well, and some become strange human-demon abominations.
Facing a number of these before racing into the capital, Elizabeth and the sins eventually have to face the leader of the Holy Nights, Hendrickson. This opponent is coursing with demon power, having become something more than human. The Sins gather forces, even combining with previous enemies to defeat this opponent.
At first I thought a lot of the characters were going to be cliche, especially Elizabeth. But, she reveals a hidden strength that redeems her early on. Hawk can be seen as an unnecessary character, but as true to form, he turned out to be one of my favorite, especially in the end, making a huge sacrifice for the good of his friends. It was also nice to see the Seven Deadly Sins show in a new way instead of how they tend to always be (see Fullmetal Alchemist for an example).
Final Words
While it was somewhat cliche, it was a very decently put-together anime. There were all the classic characters: the perv, the shy boy that doesn't want to reveal his true feelings, the sap that pretends to be tough, the tsundere, and the delicate female. But they were presented in a way that didn't make them boring. I was also glad that the giant girl didn't have a skirt that everyone could see up when she walked around. I would have liked to see the characters have a bit more depth, though, as Elizabeth is the only one that seemed to have any of it.
I would give this anime a…7.5/10 (my rating system)
If you like this anime, you might also like: Slayers, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann

Use underbrush in a sentence
- I sprang through the underbrush and came down roughly into a sort of quarry, spraining my ankle on a pile of stones. [11]
- No face showed suspicion or alarm, as they passed, while all felt the presence of many men in the underbrush. [11]
- Trees grew out of the flower beds now, and underbrush choked the paths. [9]
- These were huge, cove-like blind pockets extending back to a sharp corner with a dense growth of underbrush and trees. [13]
- The underbrush was considerable, darkness was coming on, and she had a sense of being surrounded. [11]
- But she had an alert precision of brain, an instinct that clove through wastes of mental underbrush to the tree of knowledge. [11]
- Finally we reached a brook, sneaking along beneath the underbrush as though fearing to show itself, and we followed its course. [9]

We begin our prayers today in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Jesus is telling his disciples how they can live his message more fully. We hear Jesus in John's Gospel today (13:21-38):
I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.'
Loving others is hard sometimes. Many of us have experience a betrayal by someone we thought of as a friend. Sometime this is on purpose, sometimes accidentally. Never the less the pain is real, and Jesus understood that when his love for us led him to the cross. Doing the right thing for God and Jesus does not mean that life will be always comfortable or without pain. When we take a chance to love someone we take a chance that a fragile human heart might break our love and our hearts.
Yet Jesus still held out forgiveness no matter what – can we forgive and learn to love those who have hurt us the most? Let us ask God for help:
Father, only you understand how much I've been hurt by this person. I don't want to carry the pain for another second. I don't want to be a bitter person. But I need your grace and the power of the cross to release my hurt and to forgive those who've hurt me. This is the turning point. First, I need to experience your forgiveness. You know all the ways I've hurt others, and I'm so sorry for my sins. Jesus, thank you for dying for me. I accept your grace and forgiveness, and I need it daily. Today I'm turning to you, and I'm choosing to forgive the way you have forgiven me. Every time the memory comes back, I'll forgive that person again until the pain is gone. Heal my heart with your grace.
In Jesus' name. Amen.
Seeking forgiveness and to forgive we move into our holy day in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Hey folks,
I had been told by that by order of trial judge Dana Hathaway there is no live streaming of the second degree murder trial of Theodore Wafer, the Detroit man who shot and killed Renisha McBride, a young black woman who was on his front porch in the early morning hours of November 15, 2013.
Later I was informed that live streaming WAS available, but first the connection was so bad it was worthless, and then later the media apparently inadvertently showed a jury, so the stream was shut down. Day after video now appears to be available on Youtube, which is sadly not very timely for analysis. Ah well.
In any case, the defense claims that Wafer reasonably used deadly force in the belief that someone was attempting to violently enter his home. The state argues that Wafer unreasonably created the circumstances in which an innocent person was killed.
The lack of live streaming makes independent analysis difficult, to say the least, but there are at least two local reporters and a photographer live tweeting from within the court room, and we share their tweets below. The reporters are Gina Damron (@ginadamron) and Elisha Anderson (@elishaanderson), and the photographer Mandi Wright (@DetroitMandi), all with the Detroit Free Press.
For the whole mid-day wrap-up of day 1 of the Wafer trial, head over to Legal Insurrection:
Detroit Front Porch Shooting case: Day 1 Mid-Day Wrap-Up

Would-be protesters of Donald Trump should be wary, as the presumptive GOP nominee seems to have at least one fan you don't want to mess with.
Spotted at Trump's rally in Anaheim, Calif., Wednesday was none other than UFC light-heavyweight champion Tito "The Huntington Beach Bad Boy" Ortiz.Tito Ortiz at Anaheim rally. Image Credit: Video Screenshot.

Ortiz, who shifted between occasional smiles and stern attention, appeared on Celebrity Apprentice and described himself as a Trump supporter back in January.
"I'm a Trump guy. I wasn't in the beginning, of course. I'm Mexican when he said we need to take all the Mexicans out of United States, well good luck on that one," said Ortiz. "They'll find a way to get back here anyways."

He continued, "But, you know in the long run, I think he wants to bring money back to our country and with the debt that we are, I think he has an opportunity to do that."
While a contestant on Celebrity Apprentice, Ortiz asked Trump how he became a billionaire. He said the answer is one of the reasons he is a Trump supporter today.

"He goes, 'I never stopped working. From when I wake up to when I go to to bed, I do not stop working,'" Ortiz recalled. "And for a person to become a billionaire, to be flat broke bankrupt, to rebuild himself to be a billionaire and now to become almost the President of the United States, it's amazing. He's a hard worker. He can make America great again. That's my vote for him."
Ortiz held the title of UFC Light Heavyweight Champion from April 14, 2000 to Sept. 26, 2003. At his pinnacle, Ortiz was largely considered one of the best fighters in the UFC and later went on to host Ultimate Fighter 3.
Although he retired from UFC in 2012, he later signed a contract with Bellator in 2013 and has since won two of three fights.Tito Ortiz vs. Liam McGeary. Image Credit: Video Screenshot

|"Vilhelm Pedersen, OLE LUKØJE, ubt" by Vilhelm Pedersen (1820-1859) - Eventyr og historier for børn 1905.
An epistolary tale, the central character is Nathanael, an unstable fellow who feared the Sandman when he was growing up. His father was often visited by the obnoxious lawyer Coppelius, and Nathanael and his siblings are always sent to bed when Coppelius visits. Nathanael soon begins to think Coppelius IS the Sandman, and hides himself one night to watch when he comes. It turns out his father is working on some alchemical experiments with Coppelius; when discovered, Coppelius threatens to tear out the boy's eyes and tortures him until he passes out. (And the kid was already freaking out, thinking that the Sandman would throw sand in his eyes and then steal them.)
Nathanael's father later dies in a fire caused by Coppelius' experiments, and Coppelius leaves town. As a grown student, Nathanael sees a man selling barometers and optics named Coppola, and is convinced he is being stalked by Coppelius.
Nathanael is bethrothed to the lovely Klara, and his best friend is her brother Lothar. Klara worries about her beloved's obsessions; he writes gloomy poetry and is terrified that Coppelius/Coppola will come back to ruin his happiness. Klara dismisses his fears, there's a blow-up, and nearly a duel between Lothar and Nathanael until Klara intervenes, bring peace, temporarily.
But when Nathanael returns to his studies, he finds his lodgings have burned down and he seeks shelter in a building across the way from physics professor Spallanzani, who has a lovely daughter, Olympia. Nathanael naturally forgets about Klara and falls for Olympia. He also tries to make peace with Coppola by buying some optics from him, and uses them to spy on Olympia.
Spallanzani gives a party to present Olympia to the community; she plays the harpsichord, sings, and dances, but everyone notes how pale and stiff she seems. Nathanael still swoons for her, and reads her his ghastly poetry, to which she only responds with "Ah! Ah!" which he interprets as her understanding hid Deep And Significant Soul, while the others find her dull and stupid.
Nathanael goes to Olympia to propose, but finds Spallanzani and Coppola fighting over her, arguing over who made her eyes and the clockwork. Olympia is an automaton that Spallanzi has been passing off as his daughter, and Coppola really was Coppelius after all. The sight of Olympia's eyes torn out drives him into a frenzy, and he attacks Spallanzi and ends up being thrown in an asylum while Coppelius escapes.
Nathanael recovers, and resolves to marry Klara. On a romantic afternoon, they climb a church steeple to look at the view, when she points something out to him. He pulls out one of Coppola's optics to look, and gets Klara in his view....and sees her as Olympia. Going insane again, he tries to throw Klara over, and after she's saved by Lothar, Coppelius (who is standing in the crowd) wryly jokes that Nathanael will come down soon enough....and he does, throwing himself over the parapet, screaming about the pretty eyes. Coppelius vanishes, and Klara eventually finds happiness with someone else.
It's a hell of a ride, and at first seems full of disconnected episodes, until you put together that Coppelius had roped Nathanael's father into an early version of the clockwork robot scheme. And really, this one of the earliest literary uses of a robot.
It's also interesting from a psychological point of view. Klara dismisses Nathanael's obsessions as existing only in his head, and explains them away as the result of his early trauma at Coppelius' hands...making this an early jab at exploring post-traumatic stress disorder. Nathanael is also horribly narcissistic, thinking only of himself and seeing things only as reflections of himself. It's also up to debate how much of this is real and how much is in Nathanael's imagination. It's no wonder that Sigmund Freud extensively dissected this tale in his essay, "The Uncanny." Clearly Hoffmann understood the human psyche pretty well for his time, not only noting abnormal psychology but also how self-deceptive the narcissistic young can be. This definitely counts as one of the first psychological horror stories, in addition to the above-noted literary use of a robot.
There's also elements of satire that I didn't note in my summary; there's many conversational asides and an occasional snarky tone that might detract for some. But there's also a great bit when, in conversation with Klara, Nathanael rants about how Coppelius is an evil genius ruining his life, and Klara responds with how Coppelius is an evil genius ruining her coffee. It's a good, very human moment of comedy, but also is often seen as a satirical jab at the self-importance of young Romantics. (So you see, since he was a Romantic himself, he was also not above poking fun at himself.) It's also often seen as taking jabs at Enlightenment-era science; after all, Hoffmann was a great nonconformist, and loved criticizing society.
This has been one of the favorite Hoffmann stories for adaptation. Most notably, an episode of Offenbach's opera "Tales of Hoffman" is based on it, including a gorgeous aria sung by Olympia, which has her winding down and having to be rewound several times. Also, Delibe's ballet "Coppelia" is a very loose adaptation. I won't bore you by yet again posting something from Offenbach, and Delibes' ballet is frequently performed, with many recordings, and a film of the ballet was made with Walter Slezak in 1968, and while not great, it does have a certain charm.
It was also adapted in 1852 as the opera "La poupée de Nuremberg" by Adolphe Adam; here's the overture:
...and then again in 1892 as "La poupée" by Edmond Audran; here's some selections:
...and again in 2002 as "The Sandman," by Thomas Cabaniss, but I can't find any samples.
An unexpected influence was in a work by John Bellairs, a noted author of young-adult horror novels. His book "The Eyes of the Killer Robot" concerns a clockwork automaton who is brought to life by enchanted eyes...of course, this robot is more concerned with playing baseball and going berserk.
So, this is really one to track down and read. Thankfully there are free versions everywhere and it's frequently anthologized, so it's easy to find. I have yet to read Freud's dissection of it...I may, I may not; I think Freud was a trailblazer in some ways but also full of shit in many others.
So...more on the way!

It's great to use songs in the class, if only to do something a little different. But beyond using them solely to give your students some 'light relief', there are many other ways songs can be used in ESL classrooms to consolidate what students have already learnt.
CLB 3 LINC instructor Rob Macinnis from our NE location in Whitehorn submitted a list of songs he likes to use as teaching tools in his classroom and asked me to share them all. Simply click the song titles below to hear the songs. Further still, if anyone would like to add a song or even a category of songs to this post, simply send it on over and I will make the addition. Happy singing!

I've been writing as long as I can remember. As a student in elementary school my teachers asked if I wanted to be a writer when I grew up. I would just say, "I don't
know." But recently God has shown me that writing is the talent He has given me and I must use that talent for His glory.
I live in Texas and am happily married with three daughters, one step-son, two amazing grandchildren and one lazy dog.

Happy reading!

Each day, it becomes clearer that streaming services like Netflix Instant, Hulu Plus, and Amazon Prime Instant have worn down the resolve of major cable companies. Streaming movie and TV services offer plenty of entertainment without the burdensome price of a cable package.
And yet another clear sign of the dominance of cord-cutters (people who've ditched their cable packages in favor of streaming services) and cord-nevers (those who only watch movies and TV over the internet and, in fact, never had a cable package in their lives) has arrived in the form of a brand new service from a subsidiary of Dish Network…
Sling TV – Streaming The Cable Channels You Actually Want
Meet Sling TV, a service that brings live television to viewers over the internet without the pricey, cumbersome cable package for the cost of $20 a month.
Officially launched on February 9th, Sling TV is hoping to integrate the benefits of streaming services and cable packages into one affordable whole. But is it worth your while? Does Sling TV provide the services you need at a cost you can live with? Read on to find out.
What Cord-Cutters & Cord-Nevers Should Know About Sling TV
What Do You Get?
For $20 a month, a Sling TV subscriber gets 14 basic cable channels, which are ESPN, ESPN2, TNT, TBS, Food Network, HGTV, Travel Channel, Cartoon Network/Adult Swim, Disney Channel, ABC Family, CNN, El Rey Network, Maker, Galavision, and AMC (coming soon).
That's the basic core package called "The Best of Live TV", though there are add-on packages called "Sports Extra", "Kids Extra", and "News & Info Extra", which will add a handful of channels from your genre of choice for an extra $5 a month.
You'll be able to stream Sling TV through TV-capable devices like Rokus and Amazon Fire TVs, as well as computers and mobile devices. Sling TV will be eventually be accessible on Samsung & LG Smart TVs, Xbox Ones, Chromecasts, Google Nexus Players, and select Android TV devices. Unfortunately, Sling TV has no plans to offer its services on Playstation 3 & 4.
The best news to come out of this is the availability of ESPN & ESPN 2. Many customers reluctance to part with their bloated cable packages and bills has to do with live sports. But with SlingTV getting ESPN and a few popular channels at $20 makes that excuse a thing of the past. Plus you've got something for the kids with Disney
Any Drawbacks?
Well, live television streaming leads us to one unfortunate result: the return of lengthy commercial breaks. Other than that, you won't be able to stream the major broadcast networks like NBC, CBS, ABC, etc. but you can work around that with a Hulu Plus subscription or an antenna (in some places).
You should also be aware that Sling TV allows only one stream at once, so no sharing your Sling subscription with friends. Those of you who are used to watching television with DVR will be disappointed to find out that the recording, rewinding, and pausing functions are fairly limited on some of the Sling TV's best channels, such as TNT, TBS, Cartoon Network, Disney Channel, ABC family, and all of the ESPN channels.
So consider a Sling TV a big first step (albeit an imperfect one) towards a more harmonious future between streaming services and cable companies.

A couple of hundred "thugs" are expected to gather at the state Capitol today. That's how Arizona lawmakers have described them, anyway.
They've also called them "goons" and even suggested that the way they operate makes them members of a "cartel," a word most often used to describe Mexican drug lords.
Only these aren't Mexican drug lords.
They're police officers.
And firefighters.
And teachers.
And government workers.
In other words, your neighbors.
They're the people to whom you entrust your children. Or count on to process your tax returns or business licenses. The people you call in the middle of the night when you hear a noise outside your window. The men and women who respond to your 911 call when you smell smoke. The people who come in the ambulance when your husband is experiencing chest pains.
You know, evil people.
At least that's how they have been portrayed lately by members of the Legislature and the Goldwater Institute puppeteers pulling their strings.
Cops, firefighters, teachers and others have formed collectives over the years in order to bargain for wages and benefits. That right was earned by generations of American working men and women who suffered through deplorable conditions and, in some cases, physical assaults and death.
The fact that a few working people in Arizona still join unions has caused at least one member of the Legislature to call them "communists."
Others -- with the help of the fancy suits at Goldwater -- want to eliminate their ability to collectively bargain.
A raft of bills that would kill unions has been introduced, along with Gov. Jan Brewer's plan to make it easier to fire state employees. It's the most concentrated assault on working people in recent Arizona history.
"It's not just our members that they're going after," said Rebekah Friend of the Arizona AFL-CIO.
"In addition to the attacks on police, firefighters, teachers and public workers, there also are bills that go after young people. One to eliminate the minimum wage for some. Another that would make it a lot more difficult for kids to afford college.
"Over the past several years, the atmosphere at the Capitol has shifted dramatically. It's as if these days there is no room for any discussion, no debate, no deliberation.
"Now, it's a lot of name calling. Union members are bad. We're thugs and goons. With some legislators, even the way they say things has a disrespectful tone to it. Some of them, when they say the word 'teacher,' it's as if they are spitting."
The anti-union bills (SB 1484, SB 1485, SB 1486, SB 1487) would do everything from prohibiting the deduction of union dues from public-employee paychecks without annual authorizations to abolishing collective bargaining between state agencies or political subdivisions and any union.
So, today at 1 p.m. at the Capitol, the AFL-CIO will host a gathering of its members.
A few of them hope to get an opportunity to speak with their representatives so that lawmakers will see them for the hardworking, regular people they are rather than members of a cartel.
"I've been active at the Capitol for a while, and there used to be a lot more conversation about issues," Friend told me. "You don't expect everyone to agree, but some of issues are quite complicated -- workers compensation, for example -- and there used to be a lot of give-and-take among legislators and people on all sides. You don't see that anymore."
Instead, lawmakers listen only to their philosophical gurus from places like the Goldwater Institute and ignore the people they're supposed to represent.
Then again, if lawmakers make it more difficult for young people to go to college and manage to frighten away the best teachers of subjects like, for instance, history, Arizona's next generation won't know whom legislators are supposed to represent anyway.

We did an article about a week ago about muscle soreness and what you can do to help prevent it (well, at least lessen the impact as much as possible). Unfortunately muscle soreness isn't ever completely avoidable. When exercising frequently, you're going to wake up one morning and not want to move.
The bigger misfortune comes from treating the muscles soreness. The options are limited, but here are some suggestions about getting through the day as painlessly as possible.
Cold beats Hot
When it comes to feeling a little better, applying a heating pad to the muscle seems to do the trick. It helps alleviate some of the pain, and makes you feel a little better for a short time. But therein lies the issue, heat isn't going to make any progress towards actually healing your muscles and reducing the amount of time you're in pain.
In order to help your muscles repair faster, than you're going to want to reduce the swelling. Muscle soreness comes from damaging your muscle tissue during exercise, even if you don't see it, there's a lot of swelling. An ice pack is going to alleviate the pain a little bit, but mostly it's going to help keep the swelling to a minimum.
Stretching with a Foam Roller
If you have one, foam roller stretches have a massaging effect on sore muscles. They can be used to alleviate some of the pain and tension targeting specific muscles. Here are some roller techniques designed for sore muscles.
It helps you feel a little better in the short term, but unfortunately studies show that stretching does little to increase the rate at which your muscles will heal.
Pain Relievers
If the pain is really intense, you can look into some over the counter pain relievers and anti-inflammatory medicines. Acetaminophen (Tylenol), ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), or Aspirin can all help reduce the swelling and relieve the discomfort. However, you need to be careful with these. Prolonged use of even mild pain relievers can leaned to stomach lining issues and can also interfere with your muscles' ability to repair themselves.
Topical Creams
I remember back in the day, wobbling into work smelling of Menthol. I had liberally applied Icy Hot to all the sore areas and while I had been successful at holding back the tears of burning pain (Clearly the marketing people at Icy Hot had a different definition of "Soothing Relief" than I do) at no point was I happy that I had used the product.
These products stimulate nerve receptors to feel hot then cold, but they don't actually help in the repair of your muscles. So unless you love the smell of Menthol, you can usually avoid the topical creams for the most part.
As far as foods go, increasing your Vitamin C and you Protein intake is going to give your body the nutrients it needs to repair the damaged tissue.
In the end, it's going to take time. If the muscle has been over-strained then 48 hours of lowered activity is going to help. Maybe throw in a yoga day.

By Tom Rooney
The curtain will close on the junior soccer season this Sunday when the Dublin AUL take on the Inishowen league in the Oscar Traynor Trophy final in Tolka Park. What better a culmination than the two best combination sides in the land doing battle for one of the most prestigious trophies in the junior soccer collection.
The Dublin AUL squad, under the stewardship of Peter Lynch and Paul O'Brien, are chasing their third Oscar Traynor Trophy in a row, and the league's fifteenth since the competition's inception in the 1963-64 season. A win on Sunday would also put them one away from the four in a row record set by Kilkenny and District League between 1998 and 2002. While the Inishowen League, led by Diarmuid O'Brien, are chasing their first title.
Not surprisingly, Sheriff YC and Kilbarrack United make up a large portion of the AUL selection with both clubs providing a combined 12 twelve players to the match day squad. Keith Dunne of Sheriff YC has had to pull out due to a broken foot sustained against Ayrfield United a fortnight ago and, rather surprisingly, given his form to date, teammate John Lester has been omitted from the squad completely. The Junior Soccer Portal Player of the season, Kilbarrack's Mark Townley should start, as may his industrious colleague Aaron Humphries, who was a thorn in the side of Sheriff YC in last week's Liddy Cup Final.
The AUL topped Group 5 with relative ease, winning all their three games against Carlow, AFL and UCL, scoring 12 goals and only conceding one. They then beat Group 2 runners-up Clare in the quarter-final by 3-2, before defeating the Meath & District League by 2-1 in the penultimate round.
For Inishowen, their path to the final was similarly smooth. They too, were undefeated in the group stage, beating Mayo, Donegal and Sligo/Leitrim, scoring 13 and conceding six in Group 1. They then knocked out Group 4 runners-up TS&DL in the quarter-final by 1-0 and went on to beat Wexford by 2-0 in the semi-final.
Strikingly, champions, Clonmany Shamrocks only account for two players in Sunday's squad; Michael and Jason Devlin, with runners-up, Glengard United providing five.
It's not a regular occurrence to see this wealth of talent on display in one sitting, and many of these players could be plying their trade in the Airtricity League in the not too distant future. It's difficult to know who will want it more; the team seeking to tighten their collective grip on the trophy in search of making history or the one that desperately wants to bring it home for the first time and start a run of their own.

Command me to be well?
I guess. Apparently.
I don't fucking know. Fracture sent that one one up. I just kind of finished it.
Sloth here. Or as they are calling me these days, the Lord Betrayer Sloth. I've got a whole fucking title and everything. I gotta say... that is way to much pressure. I don't think I can handle this. In fact, I know I can't handle this.
That's what I have people for. People can hand things. So I made all my people create blog accounts so they could write on my behalf too. Because believe you me, I wasn't about to let them onto my account. Last thing I need is my account picture suddenly becoming a penis or something. Because they've done that before.
I'm surrounded by 20 year old juveniles.
Lets name the cast.
First off is me. Sloth. I'm awesome, probably.
Then we have our second in command.
Next up is the head of the Mask Cult's sister cult, the Fire Cult. She is the Lord Fire Jen. Do not call her Jen though. She'll rip your throat out. In fact, I've already made this joke so we'll just underline it this time. Fuck you bitch. Stop changing my profile picture to dicks. Her interests include all fields of academia and lighting shit on fire with her mind. She, ironically, has no emotion... or something.
Last on the roster is the Lord Devil Siera. Shes prefers to be called Siera and, like everyone else, has no idea why her codename is Devil. Shes an accountant. She is also an ex-drug lord and was Duckie's half sister. So also handles most out of house personal like your standard non-cult specific proxies and other such people who don't actually live at the Free Market but choose to take orders from us in exchange for money and security. She, like you, is the backbone of this operation. She is also a raging alcoholic.
As you might have noticed, we adopted a few blogs.
Picasso's blog has been fused with Wrath is Eternal. From the looks of its, its just gonna be her rambling but its nice to have the real Picasso back all the same. She said she wants to get back to proxy work and I guess she intends to drag Navi along with her. I guess we'll see how that works out.
Moth has decided to start his own blog. The aptly named, Wrath is Madness. His blog has also been fused with this one. He opened up with a recap of what brought us to where we are now so if you're curious as to why I'm in charge now instead of Fracture go read that. I guess hes gonna chronicle us sacrificing him to the 'Fire'... should be pretty metal.... I guess?
And last, Fracture is reviving his old blog. The White Coat Special. If you take up that blog, I suggest you take the newest posts advice and don't bother with the backlog. Its a lot of gibberish. Apparently he stole Jack and their off to kill shit and experiment and be pretentious assholes together. Its worth noting that Fracture is apparently still technically my boss... maybe... he claims to still be.... and that we didn't fuse his blog to ours. He fused himself to us forcibly. Such class.
If we keep to our schedules, these blogs should be updating bi-weekly... that is to say, every other week... is that bi-monthly? I have no idea. It'll be every other week. Except for maybe Fracture's blog. He'll do whatever the fuck he wants I'm sure.
The last exciting bit of new is a few changes I've made to the website. I added an item to the store in honor of Fracture who stepped down from his position but refuses to leave or stop meddling... apparently. We added the item before we realized that was gonna be the case.
We also added an Ethics page. No longer does the Free Market hunt runners. It is our duty to protect them while Father hunts them. We're very progressive here. This has actually been the case for a while now but the Ethics page should make that information either to find. There are also some rules in there that pertain to the entire Free Market and areas where the Free Market's influence extends. Do try to behave.
I'm debating taking down the bounty board. Feels dated. I don't know, what do you guys think?
Anyways, I'm gonna go take a nap and then try to eat an entire bag of apples on my own. You all stay beautiful and shit... you know... if you feel like it.
The Lord Betrayer Sloth out.

The 'Project Ireland 2040 National Planning Framework' published by the Government in February makes provision for significant development of brownfield or previously used sites in built-up areas. The document is intended to provide a framework for the development of Ireland up to 2040.
A key element of the framework document are the proposals to target a 'significant proportion' of future development on brownfield land and infilled sites within existing urban areas, prioritising brownfield over greenfield use. This is set out in the following key National Policy Objectives:
The development of brownfield sites will come under the remit of a yet to be established National Regeneration and Development Agency. The Government has also announced that it would make state lands available to the new body to kick start brownfield development and a dedicated €3 Billion Regeneration and Development Fund.
The full document can be viewed on the Department's Website at http://npf.ie/wp-content/uploads/Project-Ireland-2040-NPF.pdf

Primary Materials
Through my research on surveillance of the Internet and my narrowed topic, surveillance of cyber crime, I've compiled a set of primary materials to aid my research question. These materials are specific examples of cyber-crimes/cyber-criminals and Internet surveillance techniques. One such material is the Carnivore system, of which is installed by the FBI onto a person of subjects ISP to surveil their email communications and to watch for any criminal activities.Carnivore This system provides a past material towards surveillance techniques and will be a crucial example of the scope of surveillance systems compared to current surveillance systems. The Carnivore system, currently obsolete, has been replaced by commercial software to eavesdrop on computer traffic such as the NaruInsight system.Saifudin, Ismail But, where the Carnivore system lacked, the Global Early Warning Information System (GEWIS) provides better Internet surveillance. This system monitors Internet traffic on a global level for information related to cyber terrorism and monitoring the stability of the internet. And when compared to Carnivore it's most likely the Global Early Warning Information System has gained more support and some security analysis believing that this system is a good idea.PC World GEWIS can survey global cyber crimes, Emails, online communications and other forums of Internet traffic expanding past Emails to protect federal and public computer networks.Computer World Thus, these surveillance systems answer the question towards what Internet surveillance techniques the U.S government uses. Also, will provided insight towards another primary material information warfare and the importance of surveillance techniques used to fight cyber crimes towards U.S Infrastructure and business; which I will discuss further later in my work.
Another primary material is phishing scams, which hold wide techniques to trick internet users to provide personal information FDIC but for my primary material I'll be focusing on advance fee fraud scams (Nigerian scam). Of which, the cyber criminal sends an anonymous Emails stating that he or she has inherited a large sum of money and needs help in obtaining the funds. Therefore, the all too trusting person that received the Email sends funds to the criminal in hopes of receiving a percentage of the money.FBI But, luckily this scam is easy to distinguish as a fraud by red flags such as being instructed to wire funds as soon as possible, have you only communicated by email, and avoid promises of large amount of money.ADA County Sheriff Another type of phishing scam and primary material is banking scam, where the emails are made to look exactly like their from your bank or other financial institutions; unlike the Nigerian scam these are more dangerous. For example, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) has received reports of fraudulent emails that have the appearance of being from the FDIC prompting clients to follow a link, as soon as possible, and update your information. These fraudulent emails attempt to collect personal or confidential information and by clinking onto the provided link prompts the client to download the newest Updates, when in fact the Updates are nothing but malicious software to hack into the clients computer. FDIC Since this banking scam is designed to mimic an actual bank or other financial institutions it becomes obviously harder to protect yourself compared to the Nigerian scam. Therefore leading to a false trust in the email with no grammar error and appropriate legal terms —adding to my the question of why surveillance of cyber crimes is used and the importance of cyber crime surveillance. Thus, these scams further relate to the importance and exigency of having those surveillance techniques listed in the first paragraph.
These next primary materials are an even more threatening forum of cyber crime; Information warfare. Defined by TheFreeDictionary.com as, "the use of information or information technology during a time of crisis or conflict to achieve or promote specific objectives over a specific adversary or adversaries" Information warfare is far more complex and far-reaching cyber crime that has many broad forums, such as, hacking into power supplies to stealing intellectual property. For my research question; hacking into the U.S. infrastructure and businesses will be my specific materials. If our infrastructure was hacked the repercussions that would ensue would be devastating and could cripple our financial institutions, sow panic and even lead to loss of life. Cyber-security experts have long feared a successful cyber attack against the United States lifeline — its energy pipelines, water supply, and its banks are at risk. U.S. News In the early 1980's, the Soviet Union needed to build a natural gas pipeline and lacked the some of the technology needed to build the pipeline. Using this pipeline as a scenario using modern Information warfare, the Soviet Union hacked into a Canadian firm's computer systems to steal the technology to build the pipeline. But, as the store goes reported from Bloomberg Businessweek, the CIA worked with the Canadian firm and planted components to fail creating a 'logic bomb' and as result the pipeline was destroyed in an explosion.Businessweek This scenario, with the addition of modern technology, offers two aspects of information warfare: the first aspect is of a country hacking into another to gain technology and the second is of information warfare crippling an infrastructure. Information warfare compared to business information warfare is far more threatening, for hacking into business can have an effect on our economy, competitiveness in the world market, and infringement of intellectual property business — cyber crime usually won't cripple a country or have loss in life.The Chron Business cyber crime shares comparisons in that government are interested in obtaining information in the same way the attacking country would try to attack U.S infrastructure. With the scenario of the Soviet Union trying to obtain technology by hacking into the Canadian firm is an effective example of business information warfare, where a government or a business may try gain advantage over another company or to provide information. The video below discusses on an U.S security firm releasing information of the Chinese hacking into over 140 victims.
Therefore, this material will be the most important from the negative results that would ensue from hacking into U.S. infrastructure and businesses. Further supporting the reasons for surveillance of cyber crimes e.g. Carnivore and Global Early Warning Information Systems.
These forums of cyber crime are hard to pursue and becomes complicated to prosecute, and to police these crimes further surveillance techniques are needed to combat these scams. For instance, their exist secure software that allows Internet users to remain anonymous on the internet making it complicated to track cyber criminals. When or if the cyber criminal is identified, the legal standards of the laws are based on the counties they are in. Requiring trained investigators to coordinate with international partners.Catching Cyber Criminals To improve the process cyber surveillance currently a bill is being proposed through legislation, named Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act (CISPA). This act has become controversial and would allow voluntary information sharing between private companies and governments on event of a cyber crime — without court-order warrants. And, according to ZDnet civil liberties campaigners believe that this poses a major threat to the Fourth Admendment.ZDnet According to Zack Whitaker of ZDnet, this bill means that a company like Facebook and your cell phone provider can hand over numerous amounts of personal data to U.S. law enforcement. Therefore, this does raise concern for cyber crime surveillance and as mentioned above they're necessary and justifiable reasons for having cyber crime surveillance but it is also necessary to inform the reader of negatives that can be associated. Though, if history follows CISPA will not be able to pass legislation. For example, the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) the last bill that had tried to protect the Internet form cyber crimes was met by the largest protest in Internet history in favor of dropping the bill.The Washington Post
This video below discusses the CISPA in detail and the concerns that have risen.
In conclusion, the questions of: what surveillance techniques are used to catch cyber criminals, that be the extinct Carnivore system and the GEWIS, and the importance and exigency of having these surveillance techniques have been answered with the primary materials provided above. Also, as the reader you've been informed that not all of these surveillance techniques are meet with positive favor e.g, CISPA and SOPA, and with passage Internet Freedoms could be lost.
So What?
The Internet has been increasingly revolving around our daily lives and becoming an ever increasing part of our lives through many mediums of social media.Internet growth We can store our bank information, saving accounts, stocks, ideas, and personal information online while making our lives more convenient and less stressful and leaving behind tedious activities, such as driving to the bank, behind. Therefore, our modern internet activities are making our lives easier but those looking to gain personal and financial information can reap this increase of Internet use readily and easily through internet surveillance. This has brought about an increase of cyber crimes and has become a daily threat to anyone using the internet including companies and governments. In 2012 a study was conducted by the Ponemon Institute that has shown an increase in cyber crime by six percent compared to the previous year. Concluding in a doubled increase over the last three years! As a result, governments are investing spying on their citizens and even on other countries in an attempt to defend themselves from cyber crimes that are domestic and foreign.CBS The ACLU has released Justice Department documents revealing a huge increase in electronic surveillance by the U.S federal law enforcement.ACLU Therefore, there are those that feel more than ever surveillance of the internet has become a needed aspect of daily life, not just to defend against cyber criminals but to protect Internet users. While others feel this increase in Internet surveillance can become a negative aspect of our daily lives, of which, I'll discuss later in the last paragraph.
Therefore, if you have a computer or a smart phone you're connected to the Internet and are acceptable to threats from cyber criminals and surveillance by the government. This leads to the importance of my research, which I've including in my primary materials to provide you with specific examples of cyber crimes and Internet surveillance techniques to catch cyber criminals. Of these Internet surveillance technique materials the United States government has the Carnivore system and the Global Early Warning Information System (GEWIS). These systems monitor Internet traffic for information related to cyber terrorism and monitoring the stability of the Internet; but there are differences in comparing these two systems. The Carnivore system, which is used by the FBI, is installed on a person of interest ISP to survey their email communications.Carnivore The GEWIS monitors on a global scale and can survey cyber crimes, emails, Internet traffic, and online communication.Computer World As you can see from these two systems, the United States has a wide range of systems for surveillance of the Internet that are needed to defend from a wide range of cyber criminals.
Thus, you may be wondering how these systems relate to the protection of our personal information and finances. From the primary materials you've learned that many cyber criminals are focused on tricking internet users to provide your personal information through fraudulent scams including: the Nigerian scam and banking scam. Larger cyber crimes such as: a hacker surveying your personal information, the company you work for has been stringently working on a new product only to be stolen by a cyber criminal and then is sold on the open market, or even our government has fallen in dismay over an attack from another country destroying our online infrastructure.U.S NewsThese cyber crimes are a daily threat to Internet security and require constant surveillance from task forces such as the Electronic Crimes Task Force.The Secret service maintains the Electronic Crimes Task Forces (ECTFs) and has directly contributed to the arrest of transnational cyber criminals for the theft of credit card numbers and that has an approximate loss of $600 million to financial and retail institutions. Even though, $600 million has been lost the potential loss of cyber criminal activities could have been in the billions. The Department of Home Land Security has prevented $1.5 billion in potential losses through cyber crime surveillance and investigations during fiscal year of 2011.Department of Homeland Security
Whether, you're an average computer users, an employ of a company, or an average citizen when these scenarios above become in perspective you can see the importance of internet surveillance and the possible effects on our lives. Now, that we know the importance of having surveillance techniques of cyber crimes we'll move onto the negative aspects of Internet surveillance. Currently a bill is being proposed through legislation, named Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act (CISPA). This act would allow voluntary information sharing between private companies and governments on event of a cyber crime.ZDnet With the scenario mentioned above of a company's product being stolen and sold onto the open market thru cyber-attacks. Many backers of this bill feel CISPA would help protect these companies from such a scenario and include protection from countries like China and Iran. Opponents feel that there is a negative aspect to this information sharing between government and companies that would allow sharing of users' private information to the government.PCmag If the opponents are correct, the bill would conclude that we must give up our Internet freedoms for the protection of the 'greater good'. If history follows CISPA will not be able to pass legislation. For example, the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) the last bill that had tried to protect the Internet form cyber crimes met the largest protest in Internet history in favor of dropping the bill. According to The Guardian's journalist Amy Goodman, the protest ranged from large to small websites going dark in protest over the proposed legislation that would censor the web.The Guardian Of which, The Electronic Frontier Foundation was one such example of a website that protested. The Electronic Frontier Foundation was created to protect our rights in the digital world, which the website has disapproved of both SOPA and CISPA.EFF Therefore, we as citizens should be suspicious and informed of any types of cyber-crimes/cyber-crime surveillance and whether or not we may lose some of our internet freedoms in the process. In conclusion, I hope thru my research that I've informed the reader and other Internet users, be companies or governments, the importance of cyber crimes and cyber crime surveillance threats to personal information loss or to the negative aspect of Internet surveillance.
