So it appears that MTV is going to continue its grand plan to shed light on the epic social problem of teen pregnancies by continuing to glorify pregnant teens, giving them a hefty check, and making them pseudo-celebrities. It's been working thus far. I mean, just look at how mature Farrah Abraham is thanks to the network's influence! Of course, actual intelligent people who are touted with research on such subjects are out to prove me wrong.
According to MTV's Remote Control, economists from Wellesley College and the University of Maryland have determined that 16 and Pregnant and Teen Mom have led to a reduction in teen pregnancy by 5.7 percent, or about 20,000 births every year since the first show premiered in 2009. If you want to get super technical, that's one less birth by a teen every half hour. I guess that would explain why the network has announced another season which will follow twelve new pregnant teens.

Germany Court Records
Back to Germany Page►
A court record is a document created by or submitted to the judge, jury, or clerk of a court. The earliest German vital records were usually kept by one of many city courts. Some German cities began keeping records containing birth, marriage, and death information for certain segments of the population in the 1400s, but only a small fraction of Germans are represented in court records.
Courts and their records
Courts may be found on various levels of government: within the local community, on the district- or Kreis level, or higher. They vary widely in function and the types of records that may be be created within their jurisdictions. Marriage contracts and permission papers, guardianship records, probate records, land records, and property transfers are some records kept by courts. Marriage contracts are the most common early court records of value to family historians.
There were over fifty kinds of courts (each with a different jurisdiction) in the German states before 1870. Court records are rarely indexed, so finding an ancestor in them is difficult. Search court records only after you have tried all other record types first. You may need professional help to use court records.
However, if you do find a person mentioned in court records, you will often find much useful information. Age, residence, political allegiance, property, debts, misdemeanors, taxes, adoptions,and guardianship are typical information in German court records. Divorces are also recorded in court records, but they are rare before the 1900s. For information about wills, see the "Probate Records" section.
Court Records in the Family History Library Catalog
In the Family History Library Catalog German court records may be found under the town, district, county, or state jurisdictions. Depending on the record type, documents may be cataloged as census records, probate records, or civil registration, even though they were kept by a court. The researcher needs to systematically check each applicable jurisdiction and all subject headings for potentially helpful records.
They may also be listed under the name of the A.G. Amtsgericht [lower court]. The name of the lower court that had jurisdiction over a community can be found in the German gazetteer, Meyers Orts- und Verkehrslexikon. This gazetteer is online.
Saxony court records
A large collection of court records has been filmed for Saxony. These records have been cataloged by town. Some indexes and finding aids are available.
In order to understand court records and how to retrieve them read this introduction here
In order to retrieve court records from Saxony and how to interpret them, read part I here and part II here and here

Karate camps for kids
No longer do kids go play in the park, or build a camp in the local woods, instead, they stay cooped up at home, sitting In front of the TV, with the latest offering from the computer games universe. It is so easy for kids to become inactive and end up overweight or even obese!
The kids who go learn karate, not only get much needed exercise and social interaction, karate also encompasses character building and life skills.
Karate is steeped in philosophy as well as ancient fighting techniques. Great karate masters of old, preach character building over fighting. Master Gichin Funakoshi said, "The ultimate aim of Karate lies not in victory or defeat, but in the perfection of character of its participants".
A good karate instructor will not only teach karate moves, a good karate school will encourage all the positive life skills like, achievement, humility, determination, respect, effort, etc.
Achievement plays a big part in a good karate dojo, this could be anything from learning a new karate technique or combination, entering a competition or belt test, perfecting a karate kata (form), etc.
Karate classes for kids should be both fun and serious, check out your local kids karate classes and ask if you can observe a typical class. They should encompass all of the above and much more. if they do, encourage your child to have a go. Summer camps in Austin are a great way to have fun and get exercise.

How To Choose A Dentist
Choosing a dentist is an incredibly important step for you to take. Choosing Round Rock dentists that works for you and your family is a critical decision that will influence the dental health of you, and your children. Here are some tips on how to choose a dentist.
1. Look at the approach and treatment philosophy of the dentist.
First of all, examine your own beliefs when it comes to your treatment and dental health. Do you prefer simply to deal with problems as they come up--you'll wait until your wisdom teeth come in before you take them out, for example? Or do you prefer to take a more proactive and preventative approach to your treatment, trying to take care of problems before they become an issue?
What level of dentistry can you afford? What level of dental care do you want, and do you need?
Talk to your prospective dentists to see how they approach dental health and treatment. Make sure that their medical philosophy coincides with your own, so that you and your dentist will be working together instead of against each other.
2. Look at the dentist's relationship with patients.
It's absolutely vital to your happiness and satisfaction that you choose a dentist who has good communication. What is the dentist's chairside manner like? Does the Pflugerville dentist care about you as a person, or does he or she simply see you as a mouth to fix and a checkbook?
What kind of communicative approach do you prefer in your medical care? Do you prefer someone who is friendly, personable, and treats you like a friend? Or would you prefer someone who has a completely scientific approach to care? Make sure when you are talking to prospective dentists that you feel comfortable communicating with your dentist, that you can make yourself understood, and you can understand the dentist.
3. Look at post graduate and continuing professional education.
Checking out a dentist's continuing professional education is especially important when you are choosing a dentist for cosmetic dentistry and for other more complicated and major dental work. Most dental schools don't actually provide intense and in-depth training in cosmetic dentistry.
When you are looking for the right dentist, look at the dentist's dedication to continued education and training in the latest techniques and approaches to dentistry and oral surgery and improvement. Your dentist needs to be taking or have taken courses in continuing professional training to keep on top of these developments in surgery and cosmetic design. Continuing education demonstrates a constant commitment to excellence in dental work.
4. Choose a dentist who can plan your treatment.
You need a dentist who can help you come up with a long term treatment plan for your teeth. If you plan well, then hopefully you won't end up with serious dental emergencies. Find a dentist who is committed to long term care and planning. A dentist who can work with you to take care of problems is one who is really committed to your dental health.
5. Financial options.
Choose a dentist who will work with your financial situation. Find a dentist who offers dental payment plans that work with your budget, so that you don't have to delay important dental work because you don't have the money at the time.
Even within your dental insurance plan, you can find different dentists who have different approaches to payment. Don't let your insurance dictate your dental health. Instead, find dentists within the approved network of dentists who fit your treatment philosophy, who have the right training, and who will work with you to give you the dental health and appearance that you want.

Choosing Security Guards For Event Security & Parties - How Many Guards Do I Need For Crowd Control?
You have that special event or party on your calendar and the day is fast approaching. All the elements are coming together to ensure your event is a successful one. However, there's one vital aspect you must address to ensure things truly do run just right: the event security concerns and the right number of security guards you need for crowd control.
Part I: Choosing the Right Security Company for You
First, what should you look for in a security guard company to receive the service you need? Here's a brief rundown on what to look for in a professional, reputable security company:
Qualified and Licensed Security Guards
Choose a company that has a current Master Security License and only employs fully qualified and licensed Security Officers. Additionally, check that a security guard has other necessary certification, such as a First Aid Certificate. This provides the best level of protection suitable for a variety of circumstances.
Regional Experience
Choose a security company that has a history of serving your region with exceptional and dependable guards. These guards would understand the unique concerns particular to that locale. A security officer familiar with your area handles a situation based on knowledge of the environment and its people.
Security Industry Versatility
Choose a company that has experience providing security guards to homes, businesses, and government. This well-rounded approach to security provides you with premium protection capable of handling many different kinds of events or parties.
Choose a company that doesn't force you sign a long-term contract. Locking yourself into a contract with a security company that doesn't perform to your expectations is the last thing you want. A reputable security firm charges you a reasonable fee for their service. You choose how long you use their guards, and pay only for that time.
Offers a Wide Variety of Security Services
Choose a company that can handle all of your security needs. Make them your one-stop shop for whatever assets you need to protect. A good, well-rounded security service will offer security guards, but will also provide alarm responses, home alarm installation and business security system installation. They should additionally offer CCTV security cameras, access control, alarm servicing, and more.
Part II: How Many Guards do I Need?
The next thing to consider is the size of your event or party. How many Houston security guards you need for crowd control depends on your venue size and the number of people attending. Having one guard per 100 people at your party or event is a general rule to meet your needs. This rule can help you plan and budget your security accordingly. Seek counsel from a security company experienced in both small-to-medium sized and large-scale events. They give good advice, based on their experience, on the correct number of security guards for your event size.
Small to Medium Sized Events and Parties
Smaller events do not necessarily mean fewer security personnel. Small to medium-sized events held outdoors over a wide area might require several guards. This is to control entry and exit in numerous spots. Such an event in a larger room with many points of entry may require the same. An event can easily become difficult to control if a room is too small and becomes overcrowded. There's also the chance more guests may show up than originally planned. This can happen when you have no pre-determined guest list. If the event is open to everyone or is vulnerable to "party crashers", you may require professional security guards experienced in those situations.
Large-Scale Events
For crowd control at larger events or parties, you will definitely need significant event security. No matter the size of the venue, there's always the risk a large crowd can get out of control. You don't want an understaffed event from a security standpoint. You can run into legal issues by not having sufficient security, especially if someone becomes injured. Knowing the scope of your event, a security company offers guidance on what type of guard is compatible. A high profile event, with high-value assets on display and VIP's, may require visible armed personnel. A low-key event with no expensive assets in the space and fewer guests may require only an unarmed security guard presence.
Events where alcohol is served in a festive, high-energy atmosphere may require event security guards stationed amongst a crowd. This is to spot volatile situations quickly and defuse them. Events and parties of a more subdued nature often mean security officers stationed solely at entrances will be suitable, especially when there exist only a few points of entry. Uniformed security guards are appropriate where an open show of authority is desirable. Sometimes you need to make it obvious to event-goers that inappropriate behaviour will receive a swift response. Meanwhile, plain clothes event security is often advisable for situations where a uniform may cast too harsh a presence over a dignified event.
In Closing
Consider the above points when it comes to hiring quality security guards for your next event or party. By doing so, you will ensure your guests receive quality, effective protection and you will also enhance your integrity as an event facilitator at the same time. The choice of the right security company and the right number of security guards is crucial to protecting the investment you have in your event.

Frantic as can be, Venoy Overton changed the game Thursday night.
Off the bench for the fourth consecutive game, Overton's defense was superb even by his lofty standards.
He stole the ball from his man. He stole the ball from a teammate's man.
He slowed Oregon State's leading scorer Calvin Haynes and frustrated Lathen Wallace, the latter irritated enough to give Overton a shot to the chops.
He stepped into three-pointers with a casual assassin's effort. Overton scored on drives, whipped up the crowd, changed the tempo from elevator sound to rock band blare.
It was all necessary in Washington's 76-70 win over Oregon State on Thursday night to open Pac-10 play. The 17th-ranked and title-defending Huskies (10-2, 1-0) saw a 10-point halftime lead whittled to three, but were crisp enough at the line to hold off the Beavers (6-6, 0-1).
Overton is the most menacing 185 pounds in the conference.
"He causes a reaction when he gets in the game," Washington coach Lorenzo Romar said of Overton.
Histrionics, verbal and physical, play a part. It's one speed with Overton who finished with 13 points, four assists, four steals and four turnovers. The results are what they are. His game has the attention of Oregon State coach Craig Robinson.
"He reminds me of old Chicago guards," Robinson said. "Tough, physical and makes plays. I think he was the cause, when we had a little bit of a lead in the first half, of them catching up and taking the lead."
It was bumpy at the start. Oregon State's idiosyncratic style at both ends left Washington struggling. The Beavers' back-cut based offense and 1-3-1 trapping zone defense force patience. Washington handled it with ease last season, twice drubbing the Beavers. It was more of a struggle this year.
"They present a lot of matchup problems with us because of how they play that zone," Quincy Pondexter said.
The senior was a matchup problem of his own. After a quiet first half, it was Pondexter who did the tough sledding in the second. He finished with yet another double-double, 20 points and 10 rebounds, making a solid opening statement for Pac-10 player of the year candidacy.
Isaiah Thomas bounced back from two light-scoring games. His injured right ankle didn't slow him, particularly in the first half. Thomas knocked down three needed three-pointers in the opening 20 minutes and finished with 19 points.
"Functional," Romar said of Thomas' ankle. "He gave us a big lift in the first half with those three-pointers."
One down, 17 to go. Oregon (9-4, 1-0) comes to Bank of America Arena Saturday afternoon fresh from a road win at Washington State in double overtime.
"Any time you get a win in the Pac-10, it's obviously a positive," Pondexter said. "It doesn't have to always be pretty, as long as you get it done."

Mike's no Hugo
Mayor Mike Bloomberg did not take kindly to a reporter's question Wednesday comparing his effort to extend term limits with a similar, but more democratic move by President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela.
"My suspicion is he doesn't have press conferences and let people ask questions, or if they ask questions he probably throws them — I don't know what he does with them," an annoyed Bloomberg told a rival of ours. "I fail to see the connection."
Well, as the reporter pointed out, Chavez has just won a voters' referendum allowing him to run for reelection, whereas Bloomberg chose to push his term limit extension through the City Council instead of taking the referendum option.
C.B. 1 battles itself
Members of Community Board 1's Financial District Committee protested angrily about a proposed street fair at a meeting earlier this month.
The proposal, which would close Whitehall St. between Water and Beaver Sts. for an entire Friday in June, would cause major traffic problems, several board members said.
"It's such a disruption for the community," said Liz Williams, a board member who lives on Beaver St.
Who was the evil nonprofit who proposed such a disruptive street fair? As it turns out, it was none other than Community Board 1 itself.
C.B. 1 has long held street fairs to supplement its budget. The Whitehall fair would bring in $7,000 to $8,000, said Noah Pfefferblit, district manager of C.B. 1. Last year, receipts from the fairs totaled $25,000 and $30,000, which the board used for office expenses.
Conflict-of-interest concerns, particularly when the board staff used the fair revenue to supplement their own salaries, were raised in the past by former member Rick Landman. The lines are also fuzzy because the group that runs the board-sponsored fairs, Mardi Gras Festival Productions, also comes before the board requesting permits on behalf of other organizations.
The city's Conflicts of Interest Board ruled that it was not illegal for the board to sponsor street fairs, as long as board members, not staff members like Pfefferblit, do all the negotiating.
Mardi Gras first proposed the Whitehall fair location last year, and the board approved it over residents' objections. Pfefferblit hoped last year would be a trial, to see if the fair location would work, but construction forced it to be cancelled. This year, Mardi Gras hoped to try again, but more board members objected this time around.
At a Feb. 4 meeting, the Financial District Committee initially narrowly rejected the Whitehall fair, then decided to defer the decision to the full board meeting Feb. 24.
"I don't think we should be disrupting the community to be making a couple thousand bucks," Williams said. "This is the community coming before C.B. 1, and C.B. 1 made that decision."
Robbing from Redford
The Tribeca Film Festival one-upped the older and better-known Sundance Film Festival by recently hiring Sundance's Geoffrey Gilmore as chief creative officer.
Gilmore is coming to the Tribeca Film Festival with 19 years of experience at Sundance, most recently as its director. Gilmore will also join the board of Tribeca Enterprises, the festival's parent company founded by Robert De Niro, Jane Rosenthal, and her husband, Craig Hatkoff.
Among the hits Gilmore brought to Sundance, a festival Robert Redford founded, are "Little Miss Sunshine" and "An Inconvenient Truth."
Pace University recently recognized Community Board 1 member Ann DeFalco for her work in the neighborhood.
DeFalco received Pace's Jefferson Award for Public Service, which puts her in the running for a national award. A periodicals coordinator at Pace, DeFalco is co-chairperson of C.B. 1's Youth and Education Committee and also co-chairs the Southbridge Towers Parent and Youth Association.

As he strives to get out from underneath the considerable shadow of his predecessor, new AG Andrew Cuomo is stepping right in the middle of some high-profile issues: pork investigations, Medicaid fraud….
And now, add the Sean Bell shooting to the list.
Cuomo is scheduled to meet privately at 4:30 p.m. today with Bell's fiance, Nicole Paultre Bell, and the Rev. Al Sharpton.Â
(And attorney Charlie King, Cuomo's onetime AG opponent and 2002 LG runningmate – forgot to add him, sorry).
The meeting is closed to the media, but his office sent out a press release announcing it anyway.
(For those of you who don't recall, Sean Bell was killed by NYPD officers in a hail of 50 bullets as he left his bachelor party at a Queens night club just hours before his wedding last November. He was unarmed at the time).

Harnessing DDT
Well this project is mainly the theoretical, inspire higher thinking type. That aside, action may be taken depending on the results.
The topic is DDT. Some of you may be familiar with it, some not. The general statement is that DDT occurs when the flame front reaches a supersonic speed.
The wiki states that it can create a gigantic pressure spike that can destroy the chamber.
If one could build a strong enough chamber, surely the immense increase in pressure could give an extremely powerful shot.
Factors that increase the likelihood of DDT:
-Rapidly burning fuels (hydrogen, acetylene)
-Presence of oxidizer (oxygen)
-Longer, thinner chamber
-Higher mixes
If these factors could be combined to produce DDT on a reliable basis, could we expect much more power?
So essentially:
If one was to build a (very) small launcher what kind of reinforcement would be required to harness the DDT blast- A.K.A. how much more powerful would a (mach) flame front be than say one of 1/2 (mach). From what I've been led to see it would not have a ratio directly proportional to the speed above mach.
Any input?
when built correctly, hybrids are pretty much always more powerful. and if you can break the sound barrier on a regular basis, as opposed as to a lucky explosion (those aren't words often combined) you would definitely have more power over a subsonic launch
when i saw the title, i was thinking "DDT? dont they sell it for like pesticides or something? why didn't he go to walmart?" lol
Oh well.. whether or not DDT is reliable, it ought to give more power (obviously) over a subsonic launch.
Over here, anyway DDT was a pesticide that was phased out and gotten rid of due to it's toxicity and causing birth defects. We actually found a notice advising people to use DDT under our house.
Not nice stuff..
DDT hasn't come up much lately. There have been various discussions over the years about the possibility of purposely using DDT. In the final analysis, guaranteed DDT was going to require fairly large chamber dimensions and really meaty materials to pull off...and even then conditions were going to be difficult to control.
The general consensus has always fallen toward avoiding DDT and hybrid up if you need (or just want) more power with a DDT-safe chamber configuration.

While this was the stated reason for its ban, the allegations have never been proven. There is even some movement to reinstating its use, particularly in malaria ridden parts of the world.
Don't believe even thing you read on wiki...
The health notice was a little...well..while it advised the use of DDT it also noted it was a carcinogen and that it may cause birth defects. It's sort of the "known to the state of california to cause cancer"-they reckon it'll happen, but noones volunteering to test it.
I'll accept that it's nasty enough that I wouldn't want it near me..
Point is, that DDT does NOT release more pressure. It just burns faster.
Another point is, that effect of the "slow" deflagration is compensated by the burst disk. (or piston)
Till the day I'm dieing, I'll keep them spuddies flying, 'cause I can!
Spudfiles steam group, join!
Didn't Larda mention something about a possible DDT shot with his 200x hybrid that was actually weaker than the other shots? Seems like intentional DDT is a lot of trouble for unpredictable results.
Like psycix said. Why?
DDT doesn't release any more energy.
The pressure pulse may reach extremely high values but that pulse lasts for only a tiny fraction of a second. It really doesn't accomplish much if you hit 2000 PSI for 100uSec.
