You can go to traffic court without a lawyer.
If you want a lawyer for a traffic infraction (like speeding or running a red light), you can hire one. But the court won't give you one.
For a misdemeanor like driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, it's a good idea to have a lawyer. If you can't afford one, the court will give you one.
The police officer will ask for your driver's license, your car's registration, and your proof of insurance and may ask you to step outside your car.
For infractions and some misdemeanors, the officer can write a ticket and ask you to sign it. The ticket is also called your "Notice to Appear" in court. The officer will give you a copy.
NOTE: Signing the ticket does not mean you admit that you are guilty. It just means that you promise to appear in court or pay the fine.
After you pay your fine, points may show up on your record at the Department of Motor Vehicles unless you can go to traffic violator school.
If the court lets you go to traffic school and you turn in your proof of completion of traffic school to the court before the deadline, the points should not show up on your record.
If you get points on your record, your insurance company may ask you to pay more for insurance because of this, or they may cancel your policy and tell you to find insurance elsewhere. Points can stay on your record for 3 to 10 years.
In California, you must have car insurance that covers you when you are driving any car. If a police officer stops you, you must show proof of insurance. The Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) has more information on the requirements.
If you have insurance but don't have proof to show the officer, you will be charged with an infraction for driving without proof of insurance. In court, you will have to provide proof that you had insurance on the day that you got the ticket and then pay a fine.
It is against the law for someone under the influence of alcohol or drugs to drive a vehicle. In California, the law defines three types of violation:
Infractions, including:
- Open container holding any amount of alcohol "on person of driver." This could be in your hand, in your pocket or in your purse.
- Open container kept in vehicle by driver or owner. You do not have to be driving the car to get a ticket for this. If the car is parked and you are in it, that is enough.
- Driver drinking in vehicle. If a police officer sees you drink alcohol while driving, he or she will give you a ticket.
Misdemeanors, including:
- Driving under the influence. It is illegal to drive if your ability to drive safety is significantly affected by alcohol or drugs. Your blood alcohol level doesn't matter if your driving is impaired.
- Driving with blood alcohol above a certain level. It is against the law to drive a passenger vehicle if the concentration of alcohol in your blood is 0.08% or greater. If an officer wants to test you and you won't do it, your license can be suspended.
- Attempted drunk driving. If you are drunk and try to start or drive a vehicle, you can get a ticket.
Felonies, including:
- A fourth drunk driving conviction within 7 years.
- Being responsible for a serious injury accident.
California law does not prohibit the use of a hands-free wireless telephone while operating a vehicle if you are 18 years of age or over.
However, the California Highway Patrol recommends common sense in its use. It urges users to familiarize themselves with their cellular telephone features and follow these tips:
- If possible, dial while the car is not in motion, such as at a traffic light or stop sign.
- Learn to operate the phone without looking at it.
- Never allow a phone conversation to distract you from driving.
- Keep calls brief.
- While talking, keep your head up and your eyes on the road.
- Frequently check traffic in side and rearview mirrors.
- Don't take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.
- If you must check information, arrange to call back and do your research while the car is safely stopped.
California requires the driver and all passengers to wear a seat belt or other safety restraint.
If any passenger is not wearing a seat belt when the car is pulled over, the driver may get a ticket. In addition, any passenger over the age of 16 who is not wearing a seat belt may also get a ticket.
- The owner of a vehicle is personally responsible for maintaining seat belts in working order. If a car is pulled over and the seat belts are not in usable condition, the owner may be cited, even if he or she is not in the car at the time.
- People riding in the back of open pickup or flatbed trucks must wear safety belts. (This restriction does not apply on farms, if the back of the truck is enclosed, or if the vehicle is being used in a parade that is supervised by law enforcement and the vehicle travels 8 mph or less.)
- Every child under the age of 4 or weighing less than 40 pounds must be in a "child passenger restraint system" – a government-approved child car seat, usually with a harness. The person who gets the ticket is the child's parent or, if no parent is in the car, the driver.
When the court has decided your bail, you can pay in person at the court, by mail, or in some courts, online.
To pay your bail by mail, send a check or money order made payable to CLERK OF THE SUPERIOR COURT any time before your scheduled court date.
- Write your ticket number and the name of the person who received the citation on the check or money order to insure proper credit.
- Include your current mailing address.
- If you need to make monthly installments, call or visit your court -- or visit your court's website - to find out if these installment plans can be:
- set up by court employees in the Clerk's Office,
- if you have to have a hearing in a courtroom and have a judicial officer decide, or
- if the court has some other arrangement.
Find a phone number for your court.
Check the ticket, courtesy notice, or court web site to see whether you can also pay by phone or online.
- Get more information if the court allows payment online.
The court can tell you what amount to pay. The fine, penalties, and fees for infractions can be $435 or more.
If you can't afford the fine, your court may have other options for you. These might include payment plans, community service, or other options. Some courts have special court programs for veterans or people who are homeless. Contact your court to find out what your options might be.
After the court has decided your fine, you can pay in person at the court or by mail. Check the ticket, courtesy notice, or court Web site to see whether you can also pay by phone or online.
- Get more information if the court allows payment online.
It depends. If your ticket says your appearance is mandatory, then you must go to Court. If it doesn't, you may be able to do everything online or by mail.
The Department of Motor Vehicles does not automatically take away your driver's license when you reach a certain age. Your mental and/or physical condition -- or your inability to follow traffic laws and rules regardless of age -- determines whether your license is renewed, restricted, suspended, or revoked.
All drivers age 70 or older must renew their driver's license in person at a DMV office.
Get more information about Senior Drivers.
Read the "Senior Guide for Safe Driving."
Teen drivers can get a ticket for breaking the special rules of the provisional driver's license issued after he or she passed their first driving test.
- With your provisional driver's license, you must be accompanied and supervised by a licensed parent, guardian or other licensed driver 25 years of age or older, or by a licensed or certified driving instructor when you:
- Transport passengers under 20 years of age at any time, for the
first 12 months.
- Drive between 11 pm and 5 am for the first 12 months.
- Transport passengers under 20 years of age at any time, for the
- This means you cannot give anyone under 20 years of aged (your friends, your brother(s), sister(s), cousin(s), etc.) a ride unless you have a licensed parent, a guardian or other adult 25 years old or older in the car with you.
- You are also not allowed to drive between 11 pm and 5 am during your first year after getting your license unless you have a licensed parent, a guardian or other adult 25 years old or older in the car with you.
- With a provisional license, you can drive by yourself between the hours of 5 am and 11 pm. If you are under 18, you cannot be employed to drive a motor vehicle.
When you turn 18 years of age, the provisional part of your license ends. You may continue to drive as an adult using your photo license, which will expire on your birthday 5 years after the date you applied.
For more information read "Provisional Instruction Permit or Driver License Information."
If you are stopped by a police officer for driving too fast or running a red light, you may be given a ticket. If you have proper identification and promise to go to court by signing a "Notice to Appear" ticket, you probably won't have to go to jail.
- The police officer will ask you to sign the ticket. (Signing doesn't mean you are guilty. It just means you promise to go to court or pay the fine.)
- You could pay $435 or more for each infraction.
If you get a photo-red-light or photo/railroad-grade crossing ticket, you will get a notice in the mail about how to handle the ticket.
If you don't want to go to court, you can ask the court if you can:
- Plead guilty and pay the fine by mail,
- Plead guilty and pay to go to traffic violation school, or
- Have a trial by mail (also called a "trial by written declaration").
NOTE: If you plead guilty and pay the fine, you will get points on your driving record and your car insurance may cost more.
If you don't go to court or pay the fine, the court can charge you with a misdemeanor and issue a warrant for your arrest.
If a police officer gives you a "fix-it" ticket on a "Notice to Appear," the "yes" box will be checked below "Correctable Violation" on the front of the ticket.
- First, you have to have the mechanical problem corrected.
- Once you have fixed the problem, take your ticket to a police station and ask a police officer to sign the "Certificate of Correction" on your ticket.
- Return the signed-off copy to the court with the fees shown on your courtesy notice before the deadline. To learn how to pay your fees, click here.
- You can check your ticket or contact the court to see if the court accepts proof of correction by mail.
- The court will then dismiss your case and it won't go on your record.
NOTE: If you no longer own the vehicle, it is still your responsibility to clear the citation by either paying the bail or appearing in court. If you have junked the car, and appear in court, a receipt from the wrecking yard may be acceptable to clear this citation.
You can handle this problem by going to your local Department of Motor Vehicles office. Ask a clerk at the DMV to help you.
Find your local DMV field office.
After you correct the problem, the DMV will sign the "Certificate of Correction" part of your ticket.
Take or mail the signed ticket with proof of correction to the court -- along with your dismissal fee -- before the deadline shown on your ticket.
Learn how to pay your fees.
The court will then dismiss your case and it won't go on your record.
If you have been cited for an auto insurance violation, you must provide the court with written evidence of financial responsibility. This means you must show proof of having had a valid auto insurance policy when you received the ticket.
To prove you have the required insurance, you must get a form from your insurance company that shows that the insurance:
- was in effect on the date you were cited,
- covered the vehicle involved, and
- covered the person driving the vehicle.
Take or mail the insurance company form to the court along with your dismissal fee before the deadline shown on your ticket. Learn how to pay your fees.
If you can do this the court will dismiss your case and it won't go on your record.
If you are unable to provide all of the proof described above, you must go to court to discuss your particular situation. Insurance violations cannot be signed off by a police officer.
The Traffic Section of this website only addresses tickets that are infractions. A misdemeanor traffic offense is a more serious offense, like reckless driving, driving under the influence (DUI), or driving on a suspended license. These offenses may be punished with jail time. These cases are heard in the Criminal Division of the Court. In any criminal case where you may face jail time you have a right to an attorney, even if you can't afford one. If you can't afford one, the Court will appoint you one.
The address of the court that will hear your case is on the "Notice to Appear" on your traffic ticket.
If the court address is not on your ticket, find the address for your local court.
If you get a traffic ticket and you think you are not guilty, you can plead "not guilty" and ask for a trial.
There are many ways to plead "not guilty" and ask for a trial. Go to the Court's website where your case was filed, or call that Court, and ask how you can ask for a trial. This same information may be on the back of the ticket or on the Courtesy Notice sent to you by the Court.
In general, to Request a Trial, you may:
- Plead "not guilty" at your arraignment--this means in Court in front of a Judge--the judge will then schedule a trial date; or
- Plead "not guilty" to a traffic court clerk and ask for a trial date; or
- Write a letter to the Court, in the letter say you are pleading not guilty and ask for a court date for a trial; or
- Write to the Court and plead "not guilty" and request a Trial by Declaration.
You may have to pay your fine upfront.
If you go to Court and ask for a trial date, you should get a trial without having to pay your fines in advance. If you ask another way, you may have to pay your ticket upfront. Then, if you are found not guilty at trial, the Court will return the money to you.
NOTE: This information only applies to traffic infractions. If you were charged with a misdemeanor, you have a right to an attorney even if you cannot afford one.
If you think you are not guilty, you can ask for a trial. You may also ask for a trial if you want to ask the court to pay your fees in installments, or to do community service (if your court allows this). You can go to the courthouse on the date shown on your ticket and ask for a trial.
For most infractions you can send a letter to your court asking for a court trial or a trial by mail (also called a "trial by written declaration") If you ask for a trial by mail, the court clerk will give or mail you forms. Use these forms to explain why you want a trial.
NOTE: You may have to pay the bail if you want to have a trial by written declaration. Send your letter by certified or registered mail, at least 5 days before the "appearance date"on your ticket.
In most cases, if your ticket is for an infraction a judge or judicial officer will hear your case instead of a jury.
However, you may ask that an infraction charge be tried instead with a jury as a misdemeanor if the offense could be charged as an infraction or a misdemeanor under California Penal Code, Sections 17(d) and 19.8.
NOTE: Unlike infractions, jail may be part of the sentence in a misdemeanor case.
At your trial, the police officer will state why he or she gave you the ticket. You or your lawyer can:
- Present evidence,
- Argue the law,
- Bring witnesses, and
- Question the officer who gave you the ticket.
If you are found "not guilty", the court will return your fine.
If you are found "guilty", you must pay the fine. In misdemeanor or felony cases, you can also go to jail.
If you get a traffic ticket and it is not dismissed by a court, a report of the violation will be sent to California's Department of Motor Vehicles. Insurance companies have access to the DMV's records and your insurance rates may go up because of the ticket.
One way to prevent a first violation from showing up on your public DMV record (and therefore keep your insurance rates lower) is to attend a traffic violator school. When the court receives your proof of completion of traffic school, you will not get a point against your driver's license which may affect your insurance.
NOTE: The Department of Motor Vehicles will only allow one citation to not show on your driving record in an 18-month time period. If you attend traffic school more than once in 18 months, you will not receive the benefit of having the additional violation(s) hidden from your driving record. (The 18 months is from the date of one traffic offense to the date of another traffic offense.)
You must get permission from the court to attend traffic violator school. In general, you will be allowed to attend traffic violator school if:
- The violation is not too serious;
- You have a valid driver's license;
- It has been at least 18 months since your last traffic violation; and
- If you have not attended traffic school in California in the past 18 months.
You cannot attend traffic school if your ticket was for speeding, and your speed was more than 25 miles-an-hour over the posted speed limit.
You cannot attend traffic school if your ticket was for any charge involving alcohol or drug use or possession.
NOTE: Drivers with commercial driver's license, or drivers driving a commercial vehicle, cannot attend traffic school to have a violation suppressed from their record. (see California Vehicle Code, Section 42005)
To request traffic school, sign and date the "Request to Attend Traffic School" option on the courtesy bail notice that was sent to you by the court. Return the notice to the court with payment of the bail amount, plus the court's administrative fee.
If you do not receive a courtesy bail notice, you may send a note to the court requesting permission to attend traffic violator school. With your note, include payment of the bail amount, plus the court's administrative traffic school fee.
You may also ask the judicial officer hearing your traffic case at the courthouse for permission to attend traffic violator school.
If you have a second violation on the same citation which requires proof of correction, you have to submit the signed proof of correction, plus a transaction fee for each correctable violation, at the same time that you request traffic violator school.
If you qualify for traffic school and have paid in full the amount of your bail, plus the court's administrative traffic school fee, then a clerk will send you a traffic school permission letter with further instructions.
Traffic Violator Schools are private businesses licensed by the State. The Court cannot recommend one. You can find a list of approved traffic schools on the Department of Motor Vehicles' website. Some Schools offer classes in multiple languages and may have online or home study classes. To find about about costs, hours, and location, contact the School directly.
NOTE: Make sure that your court accepts the traffic school you choose before signing up!
Some courts allow people to attend traffic violator school on-line. These traffic violator schools are private businesses: the courts cannot make any recommendations about which one to attend. However, the Department of Motor Vehicles maintains a list of on-line and at-home-study traffic schools:
NOTE: Make sure that your court accepts the traffic school you choose before signing up!
Traffic violator schools are private businesses which charge for enrollment. The amounts vary from school to school, so shopping around is a good idea. Usually the fees need to be paid directly to the school at the time of registration for the program.
NOTE: The traffic violator school fees are in addition to the fine (bail) due for the ticket and the court's administrative traffic school fee.
You usually have about 60 days to attend traffic school from the date the court informs you in writing of your eligibility for traffic school. (This notice from the court should tell you how to submit proof of completion of traffic school and when this proof is due.)
After you have attended a traffic school, send proof of paying for and completing traffic school to the court where your case is being heard.
Send the original certificate of completion. Copies of the completion certificates will not be accepted by the court. (However, keep a copy for your own records.)
Yes. If you have a trial and you're found "not guilty," the court will return the bail to the person who paid it.
How to Appeal
Read Judicial Council Form CR-141-INFO. It has instructions on how to appeal infractions. Use Form CR-142 to file a notice of appeal.
What is an Appeal?
It is important to understand that an appeal is NOT a new trial. The appellate judge will not consider new evidence, such as the testimony of new witnesses or new exhibits. The appellate judge's job is to review a record of what happened in the trial court to see if certain kinds of legal errors were made in the case:
- Prejudicial error: Including things like errors made by the judge about the law, or errors or misconduct by the lawyers that harmed the appellant.
- No substantial evidence: Asks the appellate judge to determine if there was substantial evidence to support the judgment, order, or other decision being appealed.
You do not have to have a lawyer; you are allowed to represent yourself in an appeal in an infraction case. But appeals can be complicated, and you will have to follow the same rules that lawyers have to follow.
When you sign your ticket, you promise to go to court or pay the bail. If you do nothing, the court may decide that you chose a "Trial by Declaration in Absentia." It may find you are guilty without hearing your side of the story -- because you did not show up.
- If you don't go to court or pay your bail, your driver's license can be suspended. And you may not be able to renew your car's registration.
- The judge can also charge you with "contempt of court" or "failure to appear." If that happens, the court can charge you with a misdemeanor and issue a warrant for your arrest or add an additional fee (called a "civil assessment") of up to $300.
If you can't afford the fine, your court may have other options for you. These might include payment plans, community service, or other options. Some courts have special court programs for veterans or people who are homeless. Contact your court to find out what your options might be.
If you don't pay your fine within the time the court gives you, the court can add new fees to the total amount you owe. You also won't be able to renew your car's registration.

If you neither pay your traffic ticket nor appear in Court, your Driver's License may be suspended. Once you appear in Court or if you pay the fine, the DMV will be notified.
Some counties issue warrants when someone does not appear in court. If you failed to appear and you have a warrant, you must pay the full bail amount or appear in court to have the warrant recalled (cancelled.)Your License Cannot Be Suspended For Failing to Pay a Traffic Ticket
As of June 27, 2017, the DMV can't suspend your Driver's License if you do not pay your traffic ticket. You can read more about this law on the California Department of Motor Vehicle Website.There are Other Reasons you May Have a Driver's License Hold
If you appeared in Court or paid any fines and fees, but you still have a Driver's License hold, there may be another reason for the hold not related to this ticket. You can find out if you have a suspension or hold by getting a copy of your driver record from the DMV. Find out how to get a copy of your record on the DMV website.
An Ignition Interlock Devices (IIDs) is a breathalizer for a vehicle. The IID is slightly larger than a cell phone and is wired to your vehicle's ignition. It requires the driver to blow into a mouthpeice before starting the car. Then, as you drive, you are periodically required to provide breath samples to ensure the continued absence of alcohol in your system.
Court-Ordered IID
When the court orders use of an IID, you must have one installed by an authorized installer and provide proof of the installation to the court.
The court has special forms and procedures to monitor drivers ordered to have the device installed.
After the court notifies the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), DMV marks your record so law enforcement officers will be aware of the IID requirement if you are stopped. DMV will also place a restriction on your driver license.
The California Department of Motor Vehicles must notify the court if you fail to submit proof of installation of an IID within 30 days from date of notice. A person who is required and fails to install an IID is guilty of a misdemeanor and will be punished by imprisonment in the county jail for not more than 6 months or by fine of not more than $5,000 or both.

Spiderweb Software founder Jeff Vogel has written an interesting little article imploring fellow game developers not to spend too much time in the trenches with the fans.
Vogel provides three sound reasons for not reading online forums discussing your work: It's not productive to read how much people hate you, it's not going to be helpful, and you might get suckered into being angry. Citing unreasonable hatred from fans and unhelpful, contradictory development ideas from people who don't know what they're talking about, he provides some solid reasons for keeping your fanbase at arm's length.
"When I read the forums for, say, World of Warcraft or xkcd, I'm always amazed at how nasty things get," he writes. "It makes me think, 'If you hate it so much, why are you there?' But that's just the way it is, and excess exposure to insults can really get under your skin, make you doubt yourself, and interfere with your work. It's very sad, but you sometimes need to just protect yourself by staying away. Keep your brain clean."
As someone who has been insulted on possibly every videogame forum in the world, I back Vogel up on this. Fan forums for anything are usually full of bitter sniping and raging nerds, and no good can come of it. However, while in theory, Vogel is right that you shouldn't read fan forums, he doesn't provide any methods for resisting the urge because, let's face it ... we always want to read what's being said about us.

With the busy candle season quickly approaching, it's now a great time to consider which type of candle wax is best suited for your needs. When choosing the right candle wax, you need to put various factors into consideration. That being so, let us take a look at the types of candle wax, and the various types of material commonly used to make candle wax.
The lighting of a room can alter the whole feeling, however if you want a safe alternative to candles to help relax your home after a long day, then flame-less candles are what you need. Whether you are looking to create romance, tranquility or simply merely want a fresh scent in your home, you can use candles and their decor to transform your house into a home.
Burning candles has been a practice of humans for eons. Back in the days of the cave dwellers early hominoids used the power of fire to light the darkness that surrounded them. Early settlers and pioneers used oil lamps for lighting their homes as well as providing a heat source. As electricity was discovered, we were able to provide lighting in our homes and environments at the flick of a switch.
Firstly, you'll have to decide on a type of candle and a type of wax. Say you want to design a set of soy pillar candles…
- You can either go to the pillar candle page and click on the soy wax thumbnail, or hover over "pillar candles" at the top of the page and click on "soy wax"
Aromatherapy definition: A form of alternative medicine centered around the use of essential oils that are derived from the flowers, leaves, rind or flesh of certain plants thought to have specific healing properties.
Despite what you may think, all products that carry the label "aromatherapy" do not always use essential oils and can therefore not be considered to provide true aromatherapy.
Our unique inclusion candles are much like wax hurricane candle holders that are already filled with pure soy wax, fragrance or essential oils and a cotton wick. So instead of putting small pillar candles, tea lights or votives in the holder, the candle is already there for you to burn. These are special custom candles so be sure to read the instructions below before burning them.
Greek mythology is filled with tales of many gods and heroes. Among them are the Titans, twelve elder gods and goddesses who ruled the heavens and earth in the golden age of Greek legend. They were later overthrown in a great war by twelve younger deities, known as the Olympians, with Zeus being chief among them.

Scrapbook Life Journal and the theme for the month of January is HONESTY. That was a real party stopper! I spent the better part of the week thinking about what honesty really means. And my final conclusion is that unless I am totally honest with myself, then it is difficult to live my life with authenticity. Of course, coincidentally, the sermon on Sunday was asking "What masters you?" I had a good discussion with my husband about what he perceived as mastering me. The ironic thing was, when I first asked him the question, he got that look. You know, the one that says "Oh crap, how can I get out of THIS one?" But, in the pursuit of self-honesty, I think you have to ask other people how they perceive you. If you are really blessed, you will have friends and family who will answer those questions for you with honesty AND grace! I love Ephesians 4:15 (NIV) "Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ" That is what I want for my life, to become more like Him.

Welcome 2012!!
Hello 2012! I'm back at the keyboard and hoping to keep current in 2012 on this blog. We have survived the big move to Tennessee, so not only is this a New Year, but it's a New Life! Last year was the Year of the Red Boots....and those boots did do some traveling. Now, not only do I have red boots, but I have new black and brown ones, because Tennessee (unlike Florida!) has some chilly weather. I'm actually enjoying it, something this Florida gal never thought would happen. I'm wearing jackets and scarves every day. I still haven't found a job, it's been rather discouraging, but I have had an opportunity to create art. Dan is encouraging me to use this opportunity to start a new chapter as an artist. We'll see. It's a scary proposition but something I've always said I wanted to do.
This year's theme is DISCOVER... new home, new friends, new goals and a new attitude! (Cue the singing "I got a new attitude!!") I signed up for Stephanie Ackerman's year-long class Scrapbook Life Journal. I'm so excited about it.

About Us
Taberham Imaging is the home of the works of Bailey Taberham, a photographer based in Nottingham, England.
Bailey started photography at a young age, starting by experimenting with a basic camera in his back garden in London, UK and specialising in macro photography focusing on the flora and fauna that he found. Some of the photographs found a degree of acclaim, with one being shortlisted for the Junior British Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition in 2014.
In addition to this, a camera was rarely missing from his side when out and about, leading to an added interest in travel and landscape photography. This became particularly apparent when abroad, with photographs taken worldwide from Adelaide, Australia, to Vancouver, Canada. An image taken in San Francisco, USA, was selected to feature in the Tiger Photobook 2013 which focused on the theme of "Connections".
As well as photography, Bailey also does graphic design on a small scale and collects and restores a wide range of vintage cameras, projectors and other equipment.

AP minister wants action against TRS chief for remarks on Cong
Taking exception to Rao's remarks made at a protest here two days ago, Andhra Pradesh Finance Minister A Ramanarayana Reddy said action needs to be taken against him as per law.
Describing Rao's comments as indecent, the minister said he would demand the Chief Minister to take action.
Charging that the Congress has betrayed Telangana, Rao had said Pandit Nehru, Indira Gandhi and now Sonia Gandhi let the people of Telangana down.
"Nehru did in Telangana by merging the region with Andhra, Indira Gandhi killed 369 students and Sonia Gandhi is now harassing Telangana people," he had said.
Dubbing Rao as the "leader of a sub-regional party", Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy yesterday lashed out at him over the former's diatribe against the Nehru-Gandhi family.
Faulting the Congress for not accepting the separate Telangana demand despite a massive agitation being carried out for separate statehood, TRS MLA K T Rama Rao had said the Congress lacked the democratic spirit to respect people's wish.
TRS and other Telangana supporters were angry over the alleged delay in formation of Telangana, though Union Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde had reportedly said in December a decision on the issue would be taken in a month's time.
Meanwhile, Telangana Joint Action Committee (JAC) Chairman M Kodandaram said today that citizens have a right to criticise the top leaders as an expression of their feelings.

Gov. Chris Christie Reveals Why African-Americans Should Vote For Trump
Roland Martin caught up with New Jersey Governor Chris Christie on the Republican Convention floor and asked him why African-Americans should vote for Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election.
Gov. Christie, a former presidential candidate who was on Trump's Vice President short list, told Martin that Blacks should back Trump "because they want an America that is full of opportunity for their children and their grandchildren."
Christie referenced the violence plaguing many African-American communities when he shared his belief that Trump will be able to make America a safer nation where parents would feel comfortable sending their children to school.
"I don't think the message to African-American families should be any different to any family in America," said Gov. Christie. He added, "I don't know an African-American parent who has a different dream for their child than I have for my own."
Is Donald Trump The Answer? Black Republicans Share Why They Are Supporting Him
Donald Trump has said on numerous occasions he is going to do well with African-American voters in the general election.
On Wednesday's edition of NewsOne Now, Corrogan Vaughn, a Maryland GOP delegate, and James Evans, a Republican delegate from Utah, spoke with Roland Martin about why they have decided to throw their support behind Trump.
Roland Martin Presses Black Pastor On Donald Trump's Plan For 'The African-Americans'
Roland Martin, host of TV One's NewsOne Now, finally caught up with Pastor Darrell Scott – an ardent supporter of Donald Trump – during the Republican National Convention in Cleveland, Ohio.
During a very spirited discussion, Martin pressed Scott to reveal specifics of Trump's plan to address issues important to the Black community. According to Martin, the GOP's presidential nominee has not articulated any plan referencing African-Americans.
Martin asked Scott bluntly, where is his plan "specific to African-Americans?"
After a long debate over Republicans questioning Pres. Obama's legitimacy as an American, why African-Americans were upset with Trump over the birther issue, and the infamous Black pastors meeting with Trump, Pastor Scott began to share some of Trump's views on what could potentially help the Black community.
According to Scott, Trump believes "the reason for the crime among the minority communities is unemployment and low-income."
Iesha Evans, The Young Lady Pictured In The Stunning Baton Rouge Protest Photo Shares Her Story
Iesha Evans and Jay Morrison, Founder YoungMindsCan.org discuss why they traveled to Baton Rouge to protest after the Alton Sterling Shooting.
Evans explained she decided to take a stand because she "couldn't sit down anymore." With the killing of African Americans "becoming more real," the mother of a six-year-old son decided to make her stand in front of Baton Rouge police officers dressed in full riot gear.
Morrison a real estate investor told Martin, "Somebody has to stand up for us."
"When we defend ourselves as African people in America we're looked at as terrorist or radicals or whatever the case is, but if we don't stand up for ourselves who is going to take care of us."
He added, "The American government hasn't done a good job at that."

With many of the world's most valuable companies centered in the San Jose area, salaries for information security analysts are well above the national average. But according to the University of Maryland, most positions in cyber security require at least a bachelor's degree. With an extensive career in technology, Yo Delmar, Vice President of GRC Solutions at MetricStream, has valuable advice for people interested in a career in information security.
What is your background and level of education?
"I have degrees in mathematics and computer science from Dalhousie University. I started my career working on systems integration projects and later earned an M.B.A., in addition to certifications as a Management Consultant, Information Security Manager and in the Governance of Enterprise Information Technology."
What career advice can you offer to people interested in a career in your industry?
"I recommend keeping yourself close to four core areas when building a successful career in technology."
"Stay true to your passion. Make sure that you are working on initiatives that really feed your heart, mind and soul. Technology is constantly changing, so there will always be something new, but doing what really inspires you is how you will thrive."
"Maintain your integrity. Work with integrity in everything you do — the way you work with others, your team, your customers and your partners stays with you as a personal brand. You are building a network of people who will be woven into the fabric of your career over many years; and how you present yourself, and what you stand for, will come back to you many times over the years."
"Keep a work/life balance. Remember that you need time and space to relax and experience life from many different perspectives. Being 'always on' will simply wear you out and erode both your passion and your integrity. Spend time with family and friends and develop mastery in things that are far away from what you work on in your career."
"Plan a graceful decline. At some point, you may seek to engage in other kinds of activities that are more centered around giving back to the community and mentoring. Plan a graceful decent that will continue to reward you and will allow you to give back to the industry."

Four things you need to know about cancer and Candida
by PF Louis
(NaturalNews) Cancer and candida are apparently closely related. Some even claim Candida causes cancer, while others say they both originate and thrive in the same low pH, high acidic environment, possibly with a symbiotic relationship.
Candida yeast fungi are present to some extent in most or perhaps all of us. When the fungus overwhelms the gut's probiotic presence is when Candida begins to be an overall health threat.
When it comes to the relationship of candida to cancer, very few oncologists will consider that possibility. This; despite the fact that there are increasing reports of cancer tumors residing amongst Candida colonies from many orthodox medical sources.
The prerequisite conditions that precipitate Candida are: Using pharmaceuticals,
; diets high in sugary foods and beverages, excess alcohol, cigarette smoking, and caffeine, SAD (standard American diet) with lots of processed flour and other processed foods, a long period of anxiety or worry.
The ideal probiotic bacteria to pathogenic bacteria is 85/15, maybe 80/20. When this goes out of balance, the yeast can overwhelm probiotic bacteria and infect other areas. The usual lifestyle suspects contribute to low pH, high acid inner terrain or organ environments which invite both cancer cells and yeast spores to flourish.
Here are four major areas to keep in mind about candida and cancer
The overlapping and crossover symptoms of Candida overgrowth, IBS (irritable bowel syndrome), Celiac disease, and other conditions connected to chronic fatigue are mind boggling. This simple test that may determine if you have
Have a glass of water by your bedside. Upon awakening, spit into the water. Every 15 minutes for an hour, look for the following indicators: Stringy trails from the surface saliva dangling like jelly fish tentacles, tiny cloudy spots suspended in the water, the saliva blob drops intact onto the bottom of the glass.
The later any visual indicators show, the less infected you are. Indicators showing within the first few minutes may point to a worse condition. No indicators may mean you're free from Candida overgrowth.
There are several
remedies suggested for resolving Candida issues: Wild oregano oil, Pao D' Arco, garlic, whole clove teas, unpasteurized apple cider vinegar, and even cold pressed virgin coconut oil is highly recommended. (
Be prepared to slow down if you become overwhelmed by yeast parasites dying off. Drinking a lot of pure water and applying detox principles can help avoid this.
Killing the live yeast colonies is not enough because the spores released will re-establish colonies
as long as the probiotic level is low.
Most probiotics will not kill yeast parasites.
But TotalFlora and ThreeLac probiotics are considered both potent enough to kill yeast fungus cells and provide friendly flora gut linings.
Bicarbonate of
(baking soda) has emerged as the cheapest and perhaps best remedy for yeast infections and related cancers. Rome oncologist and author of
Cancer is a Fungus
Dr. Tulio Simoncini has a high cure rate on
. He believes cancer is caused by Candida overgrowth, which he treats by injecting or dripping bicarbonate of soda solutions into tumor areas.
Dr. Mark Sircus, author of
Sodium Bicarbonate - Rich Man's Poor Man's Cancer Treatment
thinks the origin of cancer tumors is more complex. But he does see the connection to Candida overgrowth with cancer. He also treats cancers with IV baking soda drips or injections.
By simply drinking a teaspoonful of baking soda in a solution of pure water daily or a half-hour before meals, you can kill off yeast infections. For cancer anywhere along the digestive tract, drinking baking soda with molasses or maple syrup has worked wonders. (
The molasses or maple syrup is bait for glucose dependent cancer cells to take in the baking soda's high pH rush, which oxygenates cancer cells to death. It's suggested by these experts and the
to limit any bicarbonate of soda therapy to three weeks at a time.

Annual Ride the Rockies rolls through Breckenridge
About 2,000 cyclists arrived in Breckenridge Thursday on their fifth of six days riding in the 29th annual Ride the Rockies road biking event.
Most of the bikers camped outside the Breckenridge Recreation Center, forming a colorful tent city on the baseball and softball fields. Hundreds of bikes filled the tennis courts where they were stored for safekeeping.
Community service office Jennifer Laureano directed traffic at the intersection of the recpath and Valley Brook Street.
"Ride the Rockies, straight ahead. You're almost there!" she said over and over as she smiled and clapped, encouraging the bikers finishing a 74-mile day that started in Avon.
The riders responded with thank-yous and the occasional "that's what they said 60 miles ago!"
"Some of these people sound so exhausted," Laureano said.
One cyclist setting up a tent said he felt better than he did at the end of Wednesday's ride.
Matt Winter, 34, a Denver banker, said Thursday's climbs up the high-mountain passes were earlier in the day. This was his fifth Ride the Rockies in a row.
Friends Tim Richardson, 56, of Rancho Mirage, California, and Doug Winters, 63, of Palm Desert, California, said they were glad to be in Breckenridge's cool climate with temperatures at home around 102 degrees.

According to a CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll, in response to a question of who is to blame for New Orleans' problems after the hurricane:
"13 percent said Bush, 18 percent said federal agencies, 25 percent blamed state or local officials and 38 percent said no one is to blame. And 63 percent said they do not believe anyone at federal agencies responsible for handling emergencies should be fired as a result."
Once again, there is a split between the American people and the media elite.

In the wake of the National Space Council's first meeting, NASA says it has been told to draw up plans to send humans to the moon "for long-term exploration and utilization," followed by trips to Mars and other interplanetary destinations.
That means moon bases are back in style.
But what kind of moon base? NASA's current vision for space exploration goes only so far as to consider putting a Deep Space Gateway in lunar orbit. It's basically a space station that could serve as a platform for monitoring robotic operations on the lunar surface, or for sending astronauts onward to Mars.
During the Obama administration, NASA saw lunar settlement as the purview of commercial ventures and international partners. The European Space Agency, for example, has its own vision for a "Moon Village," and Bigelow Aerospace has floated the idea of putting expandable commercial habitats on the moon.
Now NASA will include moon base concepts in its own blueprint for beyond-Earth exploration. Fortunately, this isn't virgin territory: NASA could turn to the work it was doing a decade ago, the last time moon bases were in style.
Back then, the space agency was working out the plans for lunar settlements that would be built once Americans returned to the moon as part of Project Constellation, backed by President George W. Bush.
Boeing and Lockheed Martin were among the potential industry partners, along with Caterpillar (for dirt-moving), Canada's Norcat (for lunar mining) and ILC Dover (which was vying with Bigelow Aerospace to build habitats).
The favored site was to be the moon's south polar region — where the rims of craters could provide nearly constant views of Earth, and where the permanently shadowed bottoms of craters could harbor water ice. That ice could be used to produce drinkable water, breathable oxygen and rocket propellants.
At the time, NASA envisioned starting the construction job sometime after Constellation's first moon landing in 2020, and having a habitat ready for six-month tours of duty by 2025.
"The intent is to lay down the foundation for a permanent presence on the moon by whoever wants to be there," Boeing's Dallas Bienhoff told me back then.
So what happened? The bottom line, that's what. The cost estimate for Project Constellation rose beyond $100 billion, and that didn't even include the cost of building the moon base. In 2009, a White House panel of independent space experts determined that the plan couldn't be done on NASA's budget.
Within a year, Constellation was canceled. Instead, President Barack Obama turned NASA's attention toward sending astronauts to a near-Earth asteroid, and then making the giant leap to Mars.
Now, NASA is forgetting about the asteroid and going back to the back-to-the-moon aspirations, as part of a grander plan to expand human presence in the solar system under American leadership. It's way too early, however, to come up with a price tag for moon missions, let alone a moon base.
One big factor has changed in the past decade: Back then, SpaceX was struggling to get into the launch industry, and then-millionaire Elon Musk was flirting with bankruptcy.
Today, business is booming at SpaceX, due to its low-cost approach to rocket launches and retrievals. Musk's net worth has topped $20 billion, and he's talking up monster missions to the moon and Mars, leading to Red Planet settlement within the next decade.
SpaceX is increasing the competitive pressure on Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Orbital ATK and Northrop Grumman, NASA's longstanding partners in the space exploration business.
The cost equation for moon trips, and for a moon base, may well look better now than it did in 2007, thanks in part to Musk and SpaceX. Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin space venture could eventually come in for some of the credit as well if its Blue Moon lunar lander gets off the ground.
However, no plan for space exploration is exempt from Grissom's Law, which was attributed to Mercury astronaut Gus Grissom in "The Right Stuff," Tom Wolfe's novel about the early space effort: "No bucks, no Buck Rogers."
Once the cost estimate for building a moon base gets out there, will the White House, Congress and the electorate go along? Or will the idea give rise to political scoffing and late-night lampooning, as it did when Newt Gingrich (who's also apparently back in style) made his moon base suggestion during the 2012 presidential campaign?

Investigators say the man seen doing drugs in the video used to head the Marion Police Department, in Southwest Virginia.
In the video, it appears Michael Roberts is pulling a green plate and a spoon out of the cabinet and sitting down at the table.
He then crushes up pills for himself, before snorting the drugs while a hidden camera records everything.
Roberts was fired after he was accused of stealing drugs from the evidence locker to sell to friends.
He has since plead guilty to those charges.

Talk:Dijoi (3.5e NPC)
From D&D Wiki
This NPC needs a CR. Only when it has a CR will it show up on the correct DnD NPCs page. --Green Dragon 09:45, 30 December 2006 (MST)
- And therein lies the crux. I actually don't remember how to caulculate CR correctly anymore. I was sorta hoping someone would know and fix my inept-ness —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Cypresslyshra (talk • contribs)13:45, 30 December 2006 (MST). Please sign your posts.
- This NPC is level 5, so an easy way to do it is by adding the level and the ECL. So, the level is 5, and the ECL is 4... I would say go with CR9 or so. To see how well this would work fight this NPC against several CR9 monsters, if he always loses than make the CR lower, if he always wins make the CR higher. However, 9 is a good starting place. --Green Dragon 15:44, 30 December 2006 (MST)
- You're confusing ECL with LA. ECL = Any racial HD (0) + any class levels (5) + LA (+2) = 7. Offhand I'd give a soulbound 1st-level warrior (and there should be an entry for such a soulbound in the DnD Creatures) a CR of 1/2 or 1 (depending on which special abilities it has). Five class levels would put it at CR 5 or 6 (again depending on which special abilities it has). —Sledged 22:51, 19 January 2007 (MST)
- So I should change it to 7? You have to remember that He always works with his sister, so the pair of them must do something for their CR —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Cypresslyshra (talk • contribs)23:53, 19 January 2007 (MST). Please sign your posts.
- Be that as it may, they're each about a CR 7, so if they work together you just have an encounter to two CR 7 NPCs. —Sledged 23:10, 19 January 2007 (MST)
- I shall cede to your judgement in this case--Cypresslyshra 23:10, 19 January 2007 (MST)
- Also, sorry for the confusion on a good CR to start from. --Green Dragon 21:19, 20 January 2007 (MST)

Students entering into our School for their Undergraduate education, start of with a greatly involving and stimulating first year or Foundation year. This Foundation year is rigorous in terms of the introduction it offers to all aspects of design. We explore material, colour, elements and principles of Art & Design, specifics of two-dimensional and three-dimensional design and working through mediums including film, fabric, paper, found material, ceramics and so on. As a result, the student of Foundation must multitask through the year in order to make most of the time they have at the School.
Understandably, as it is an involving process for the student, parents & guardians must extend their support and must be involved with the entire process of the student transitioning into a young Designer.

But we do need a breather. We do need knowledge. And perhaps in a thousand years we might pick smaller cliffs to jump off. The books are to remind us what asses and fools we are. They're Caesar's praetorian guard, whispering as the parade roars down the avenue, 'Remember, Caesar, thou art mortal.' Most of us can't rush around, talk to everyone, know all the cities of the world, we haven't time, money or that many friends. The things you're looking for, Montag, are in the world, but the only way the average chap will ever see ninety-nine per cent of them is in a book.

I dreamt about you last night.
I was in our old apartment with my new best friend. It was dark outside, and although no one had knocked, I had the feeling that someone was standing outside the door, waiting for me. I opened the door, and no one was there, but when I leaned my head out and looked further out, I saw you standing there, facing the street; I could see your long hair falling down your back and a suitcase on either side of you. I already knew who you were, so my first question was: were you moving in or moving out?
I recalled that you'd already moved out, so I understood this — the baggage — to mean that you were moving back in.
I was overjoyed. I walked down the stairs, barefoot; you turned around and said that the two of you, you and your now girlfriend, had broken up. I took you in my arms and held you; I told you that I would be there for you. I whispered that you two might still be able to work things out, not to worry, and I promised that, no matter what, I would be your best friend and help take care of you.
And I remember realizing that, although our touch wasn't even remotely romantic, holding you again was absolutely euphoric. One of the very best feelings I've ever had.
I had made plans for that evening, but, at your arrival, I dropped them instantly. I think that I forgot to call, or text, the people with a cancellation and apology. Instead, I drove to the store with you in the car, beside me, and we picked up items for a homemade vegetarian chili; you said you wanted to put mango in it, which I thought was weird, but you're a self-proclaimed chef, so I didn't question you. I was just so happy to be in your life again, as a real friend. I was so glad to have those awful pretensions and barriers removed.
And then I woke up so damn quickly; of course it was a dream.
The mango-infused chili isn't marinating in a cold, stainless steel pot in the fridge right now, and you're still living on the other side of town (but further away than that, really). Come to think of it, I don't think I even know the zip code.

The Auvergne is located smack in the centre of France, with a stunning national park that features extinct volcanoes, deep glacial lakes and old-fashioned spa towns. In the sleepy rural village of Muret, you can discover a homely B&B like the Maison de Muret – it's just €54 a night for a double, and the owners put on an incredible feast at night, beginning with a glass of Gentiane (a local aperitif of mountain herbs), hearty dishes like homemade sausages with truffade (creamy potatoes), Cantal cheese fresh from the neighbouring farm, and a tarte aux myrtilles – all for a grand total of €17 a head, wine and coffee included.

Although the seafood and fish are out of this world in Brittany, restaurants don't tend to be cheap in the picture-postcard fishing villages. But this is also the world's capital of crêpes, and for a genuine locals' address check out the Crêperie Amzer Zo in the tiny port of Kerity. Amzer 'zo is Breton for "no hurry", and its sunny terrace is perfect for a lazy lunch of delicious buckwheat crêpes stuffed with everything from tasty andouille sausage to ham and eggs. Finish off with a crêpe au chocolat, forget the wine and order a bowl of cider, and the bill still won't come to much more than €10.

Whether it is for gourmet food or fine wines, there are few regions in France that can compare with Burgundy. Saulieu has a strong claim to be the gastronomic capital of the region, and if you don't want to splash out at the three-star Michelin Relais Bernard Loiseau, then check in almost next door at the surprising Borne Imperiale. A comfy double room looking out over beautifully landscaped gardens costs €45-60, and the genial chef, Jean Berteau, prepares a tempting three-course terroir menu of escargots à la bourguignonne, a succulent jambon a l'os, slowly braised with wild mushrooms, and a sinful mousse au chocolat, priced at €24.50.

Oyster-lovers are spoilt for choice when travelling around the French coast, but for the perfect mix of stunning natural landscapes and the finest spéciales and fines de claire oysters, it is difficult to beat the Bassin d'Arcachon.

The Sud-Ouest is all about serious eating, from confit de canard, a hearty cassoulet or foie gras to the delicious Basque speciality piquillos – red peppers stuffed with stockfish, a type of dried fish. Alain Dutournier is acclaimed as an ambassador of this region's cuisine, with a two-star Michelin dining room and two other restaurants in Paris. He recommends a visit to Pouillon, just outside the town of Dax, to L'Auberge du Pas de Vent, where acclaimed young chef Frédéric Dubern sticks to traditions with a €22.50 Menu Gascon, which features beef terrine, slowly roasted duck and a "nose-to-tail" pork dish for adventurous diners.

Guy Martin is the celebrated chef of the legendary Parisian restaurant Le Grand Vefour, and his cooking always reflects his Alpine roots. What few people know is that he is also partner in a down-to-earth diner, Le Trianon, hidden away in the ski resort and spa town of Allevard, where prices range at lunch from just €9 for a dish of the day to €15 for a three-course set meal. Although the menu features classic Savoyard fondue and raclette, Martin's influence means there are also gourmet options like a tempting duck shepherd's pie with pumpkin and the local Beaufort cheese.

La Roux played a storming headline set on the opening date of the Samsung NME Radar Tour last night (April 29), after Heartbreak, Magistrates and The Chapman Family opened proceedings at a packed Nottingham Rescue Rooms.
With the stage bathed in smoke, La Roux singer Elly Jackson showcased tracks from her eponymous album, backed by a three-piece band.
After sending the crowd ecstatic with the likes of current Number Two single 'In For The Kill', 'Quicksand' and album standout 'Bulletproof', Jackson told NME.COM why headlining the Samsung NME Radar Tour was special for her.
"The thing about NME readers is that they're well up for it!" she explained enthusiastically. "They are, they absolutely love it! It's a really good crowd to play to. It's so nice when you get a response like I got tonight."
However the gig was not without its problems. La Roux had to abandon playing 'Growing Pains' due to sound issues, resulting in a couple of minutes of silence during which Jackson told the crowd that she could not hear herself singing. Once the problem was sorted, the band kicked straight into 'In For The Kill', prompting wild cheers from the heaving audience.
"I must admit, I wasn't expecting technical problems!" Jackson said of the incident after the gig. "Something like that, it's not planned, but at least it shows you're human. I still thought it was a great gig though. I loved it. I love dancing, I love getting all sweaty. It was great fun!"
La Roux played:
'As If By Magic'
'Growing Pains' (aborted)
'In For The Kill'
'I'm Not Your Toy'
Earlier The Chapman Family had opened the tour, coming onstage at roughly 7pm (BST) and playing a blistering eight-songs, including fan-favourites 'Kids' and 'Million Dollars'.
"We only finished our soundcheck about 20 seconds before the doors actually opened!" bassist Pop Chapman told NME.COM after the band's performance. "People started coming in to the venue, so we went out to get some air. And by the time we came back in we had to go straight onstage again!"
They were followed by Magistrates. The Southend five piece – who have been championed by Damon Albarn – instantly got the crowd dancing, particularly on tracks like the falsetto-led 'Colour Coordination' and former single 'Heartbreak'.
Singer Paul Usher was in high spirits about the other bands playing the tour.
"I've not met La Roux yet but I've met the other guys – lovely people!" he told NME.COM. "I think everyone's up for it on this tour. Heartbreak are really nice, and actually, everyone I've spoken to so far seems cool. Which is handy! It'd be awful touring with a bunch of mean bastards, wouldn't it?!"
With the atmosphere in the heaving venue reaching boiling point, Anglo-Argentinean duo Heartbreak – backed by a live drummer – then showcased their brand of Italo disco.
'We're Back' – the epic centrepiece from the band's 'Lies' album – went down a storm with the Nottingham crowd, with singer Sebastian Muravchik's flamboyant dancing proving popular with fans.
"We've not toured with as many bands as this before, so hopefully we'll all bond," Muravchik told NME.COM before taking to the stage. "It seems like it'll happen – it's the first night of the tour, so if it's gonna happen, it's gonna happen tonight!"
Bandmate Ali Renault added that with anticipation kicking in, he was keen to get the first night of the tour out of the way.
"I'm feeling good, we're onstage in about an hour. I'm not worried about a thing actually – I'm just making sure I'm looking forward to it now!" he said.
Of the other bands on the tour, Renault said he was particularly impressed with The Chapman Family, declaring: "I'd not seen them before, and they were a lot heavier than what I was expecting, which I really liked. Their songs have really interesting arrangements – they're a really dynamic band."
The Samsung NME Radar Tour continues at Bristol tonight (April 30).

Can you please give me a hint where it could be present.
It is not in

I believe it is possible for the .emacs file to not exist. In such a case, where can I create this file on my own if I finally have to?

I went to Vancouver with one item to shop on my mind! I was dead set on finding the perfect over sized biker/faux shearling jacket in person because I had been shopping for months online with absolutely no luck. I was exhausting every store I could possibly think of and every time I came across a coat that peaked my interest it was sold out in my size. It was feeling impossible. But when your husband takes you to a 4 story shopping complex (Metropolis at Metrotown) the odds were feeling in my favor! And boy did I score!!! I walked out of Zara with the last XS in stock, in the color that I wanted and ALL the little details I was looking for.
Now, I am sure you are all familiar with the classic biker jacket but this jacket is taking it to a new level. The lining is entirely soft and the over sized fit is what I live for. This fit looks great with every kind of shoe and I love the versatility that it allows me. I wanted to bring your attention to another jacket very similar to the jacket I purchased: the faux shearling biker jacket. Imagine an entirely soft jacket with a biker "style". Yeah, it doesn't get any better than that! And many of these jackets are over sized as well. Basically, any fashionista you know is going to have a version of this coat. This is the new "IT" jacket and just trust me when I say, you don't want to miss out! I have assembled various styles below so whether it's biker, faux shearling, etc, that you prefer…there's a jacket for you!
P.S Don't you just love Vancouver at Christmas? It was magical!
Thanks for joining me in fashion fun, XO, Emmarie.

Another Monday! I can't believe it's been a whole week since we left Virginia. 🙁 I miss the ocean.
1. What is your favorite bagel flavor?
Hmmm…. I don't eat bagels that often. I rarely eat breakfast (even the smell of food in the morning makes me queasy). When I lived in New York City, I ate bagels, though. Those deli bagels were HUUUGE. A whole meal and more. They packed them with an entire 8-ounce bar of cream cheese, I think. I can't believe I used to eat those (although it took me all morning and most of the afternoon to do it).
Oh, yeah, favorite flavor. Well….. I already read Carole's post today… and Carole, I hate to tell ya but I like the Everything bagel best. *ducks*
2. If you had an extra $100 right now, what would you spend it on?
*sigh* Only $100?
I drove by my house the other day and got a good, hard look at the 100-year-old windows. They look BAD. $100 would probably buy 1/3 of a window. I'd probably tuck the $100 in savings toward that.
3. What is the last thing that you felt guilt about doing?
:-p Like Atlas, I always feel I must bear the weight of the entire world on my shoulders. Better ask me what I DIDN'T feel guilty about! The list would be a lot shorter!
4. Soft serve ice cream or hand dipped?
Whatever. I like hand dipped (that term DOES sound yukkyy– I prefer a SCOOP not someone's hands!) because there are more flavors. Why is it there are so few flavors for soft ice cream?
5. Are you allergic to anything?
Thanks for reading! 🙂

|Soldiers facial fractures repaired in war zones
|Written by NetDoc.com Medical News Feed
CHICAGO—American military personnel with facial fractures who meet certain criteria can undergo surgery to treat their injuries without being evacuated from war zones, according to a report in the November/December issue of Archives of Facial Plastic Surgery , a theme issue on orbital and ophthalmic plastic surgery .
Discuss this article on the forums. (0 posts)
Up to 61 percent of all patients wounded during Operation Iraqi Freedom have had a head and neck injury, according to background information in the article. "Prior to May 2005, most American military personnel with facial fractures were air evacuated from the Iraqi theater for definitive treatment of their facial fractures," the authors write. "Concerns about sterility, infection with Acinetobacter baumannii (a bacteria that has infected wounds and prostheses and caused catheter-related sepsis in many troops returning home) and delaying evacuation out of theater were all reasons cited for not definitively repairing facial fractures in theater."
Beginning in May 2005, American soldiers meeting strict guidelines underwent repair of their facial fractures by a procedure known as open reduction and internal fixation, which involves using mesh implants or plates to mend broken bones. Candidates for having the operation in Iraq met the following criteria:
Manuel A. Lopez, M.D., and Jonathan L. Arnholt, M.D., of the Wilford Hall Medical Center, San Antonio, reviewed the records of 207 patients taken to the operating room by the otolaryngologist –facial plastic surgeon at the 322nd Expeditionary Medical Group at the Air Force Theater Hospital, Balad Air Base, Iraq from May to September 2005. The hospital is located in the Sunni Triangle, approximately 40 miles north of Baghdad.
A total of 175 patients (85 percent) were operated on for traumatic injury and 52 patients required open reduction and internal fixation of a facial fracture. Of these 52 patients, 17 were American military personnel who underwent an open reduction and internal fixation. An average of 8.3 months later, 16 of them were contacted or followed up on the global military medical database.
"None of these patients developed an Acinetobacter baumannii infection or had a complication caused by the definitive in-theater open reduction and internal fixation," the authors write. Only one patient required revision surgical repair due to high pressure in the skull.
"The practice of definitively treating facial fractures in a war zone using the criteria discussed in this article can lead to improved patient outcomes," the authors write. "It has been shown that a delay in fracture fixation can lead to both increased technical difficulties and infectious complications." An untreated fracture can become more difficult to repair because the surrounding facial muscles are fibrous and frequently contract. Complications such as nerve weakness and misaligned teeth are more prevalent in jaw fractures with delayed treatment, they note.
"Primary closure of soft tissue defects by open reduction and internal fixation of facial fractures on initial presentation to a well-equipped, in-theater hospital decreases the need for further facial surgery for patients when they return to the United States," they conclude.

Anatomy of the Female Reproductive System
The reproductive role of the female is far more complex than that of a male. Not only must she produce gametes, but her body must prepare to nurture a developing embryo for a period of approximately nine months. Ovaries, the female gonads, are the primary reproductive organs of a female, and like the male testes, ovaries serve a dual purpose: They produce the female gametes (ova) and sex hormones, the estrogens * and progesterone (pro-ges′tĕ-rōn). The accessory ducts (uterine tubes, uterus, and vagina) transport or otherwise serve the needs of the reproductive cells and a developing fetus. As illustrated in Figure 27.11, the ovaries and duct system, collectively known as the internal genitalia, are mostly located in the pelvic cavity. The female's accessory ducts, from the vicinity of the ovary to the body exterior, are the uterine tubes, the uterus, and the vagina. The external sex organs of females are referred to as the external genitalia.
The Ovaries
The paired ovaries flank the uterus on each side. Shaped like an almond and about twice as large, each ovary is held in place in the fork of the iliac blood vessels within the peritoneal cavity by several ligaments. The ovarian ligament anchors the ovary medially to the uterus; the suspensory ligament anchors it laterally to the pelvic wall; and the mesovarium (mez″o-va′re-um) suspends it in between. The suspensory ligament and the mesovarium are part of the broad ligament, a peritoneal fold that "tents" over the uterus and supports the uterine tubes, uterus, and vagina. The ovarian ligaments are enclosed by the broad ligament. The ovaries are served by the ovarian arteries, branches of the abdominal aorta, and by the ovarian branch of the uterine arteries. The ovarian blood vessels reach the ovaries by traveling through the suspensory ligaments and mesovaria. Like each testis, each ovary is surrounded externally by a fibrous tunica albuginea which is in turn covered externally by a layer of cuboidal epithelial cells called the germinal epithelium, actually a continuation of the peritoneum. The ovary has an outer cortex, which houses the forming gametes, and an inner medullary region, containing the largest blood vessels and nerves, but the relative extent of each region is poorly defined.
Embedded in the highly vascular connective tissue of the ovary cortex are many tiny saclike structures called ovarian follicles. Each follicle consists of an immature egg, called an oocyte (o′o-sīt; oo= egg), encased by one or more layers of very different cells. The surrounding cells are called follicle cells if a single layer is present, and granulosa cells when more than one layer is present. Follicles at different stages of maturation are distinguished by their structure. In a primordial follicle, one layer of squamouslike follicle cells surrounds the oocyte. A primary follicle has two or more layers of cuboidal or columnar-type granulosa cells enclosing the oocyte; it becomes a secondary follicle when fluid-filled spaces appear between the granulosa cells and then coalesce to form a central fluid-filled cavity called an antrum. At the mature vesicular follicle, or Graafian follicle (graf′e-an), stage, the follicle bulges from the surface of the ovary. The oocyte of the vesicular follicle "sits" on a stalk of granulosa cells at one side of the antrum. Each month in adult women, one of the ripening follicles ejects its oocyte from the ovary, an event called ovulation. After ovulation, the ruptured follicle is transformed into a very different looking glandular structure called the corpus luteum (lu′te-um; plural: corpora lutea), which eventually degenerates. As a rule, most of these structures can be seen within the same ovary. In older women, the surfaces of the ovaries are scarred and pitted, revealing that many oocytes have been released.
