The Massachusetts House adopted an updated version of the SouthField overhaul bill offered by House Majority Leader Ronald Mariano, D-Quincy shortly after 4 p.m. Wednesday. The Senate would have to vote on it by the end of the day today to get it to the governor's desk before the Legislature's formal session runs out and chances of passing a bill this year dwindle.
BOSTON – A bill aimed at rebooting SouthField, the struggling redevelopment of the former South Weymouth Naval Air Station, has cleared the House and now heads to the Senate, giving the body one day to act on it before the legislative clock runs out.
The House adopted an updated version of the bill offered by House Majority Leader Ronald Mariano, D-Quincy, shortly after 4 p.m. Wednesday. The Senate would have to vote on it by the end of the day today to get it to the governor's desk before the Legislature's formal session ends and chances of passing a bill this year dwindle.
The bill incorporates sweeping changes first proposed by the project's master developer, Starwood Land Ventures.
Weymouth Town Council President Patrick O'Connor said he thinks the bill has enough momentum to make it through both chambers in time.
"Hopefully in that timeframe this will get done," he said. "Everyone collectively agrees we're not going to see any money under the current plan. It's broken and needs to be fixed."
As of 8 p.m. Wednesday, Mariano said he thought the Senate still had time to pass the measure that night, rather than prolong action until the final day of the session. But Sen. Robert Hedlund, R-Weymouth, wasn't so sure.
"I'm guessing tomorrow," he said Wednesday night. "I wish we had gotten it sooner (from the House)."
Hedlund said the bill appeared on track for a Senate vote early in the evening until "a couple of minor issues" arose from Abington officials, along with "some back and forth" between Weymouth Mayor Sue Kay and Starwood Land Ventures, the project's master developer.
Hedlund said Abington officials want to iron out details about open space in the town's portion of SouthField, along with the schedule for dismantling old buildings on the former Navy air base.
Changes in the legislation include slashing power from the project's quasi-governmental overseer, South Shore Tri-Town Development Corp.; expanding its board of directors and shifting responsibility for public services to Weymouth, Rockland and Abington. Each town would also be able to collect property taxes on its section.
The changes have won the backing of officials in the three towns but are still opposed by Tri-Town and some residents who argue that each town should have had a chance to vote on the changes before they went to the Legislature and that the overhaul would give Starwood too much power.
Plans for SouthField include 2,855 homes and apartments and 900,000 to 2 million square feet of commercial space. The first home construction started in 2011, and more than 500 people live at SouthField now. But the commercial development that was supposed to be the backbone of an economic revival for the three towns has failed to materialize.
The changes would allow Starwood to move ahead with building housing and put off commercial construction.
Starwood and Tri-Town have blamed each other for the project stalling. Starwood officials have said the company, which also owns a majority of the former Navy land, could walk off the project if the changes aren't approved by the end of the day today.

MySpace laid off 30% of its workforce today. One reason is that MySpace's user-engagement numbers are "horrendous," to use a source's word.
To wit: In the last year, the amount of time users spend on the site has plummeted from over 20 minutes per visit to just over 10. Meanwhile, time spent on MySpace's nearest rival, Facebook, has remained relatively flat. In the second chart, we see user visits to MySpace per month are off 13% from their peak, too.

How to run a 25 Square Ncaa March Madness Pool
How does this vary from the normal Super Bowl Squares?
The concept is the same, the difference is there are not four quarters in a college basketball game but instead two halves, therfore there will only be 2 winners, one at the end of the first half and one at the end of the second half. The best time to run this pool is for the Ncaa Tournament Championship game, but it can be ran for any game.
How does this vary from the normal 100 Square Grid?
Everything is the same but each square will now have two numbers in the left hand column and two numbers in the top row. This gives each square two chances to match each teams score. This size grid works great if you don't have a lot of people to play.
Step 1
Print the square grid from above and place one of the teams on the top blank line and the other team on the side blank line. It doesn't matter which team goes where.
Step 2
Sell each square for a set dollar amount until all squares are full, a player may buy as many squares as they wish. Once the player pays for the squares they are to write their name in the squares of their choice. If you feel 25 squares are to few check out our 50 square grid and 100 square grid.
Step 3
Once all the squares are full it is time to set up the drawing. This can be done in many ways, listed below are 2 examples. After determining the drawing method, draw the numbers one at a time placing the numbers from left to right starting with the first gray square box in the top row, continue across the top row until the numbers are gone. After that is complete you will redraw the numbers, this time placing the drawn numbers in the gray square boxes in the left column, starting at the top.
Example 1: Write the numbers 0-9 on pieces of paper and place them in a hat.
Example 2: Get a deck of cards A through 10, the ace represents a one, the 10 represents a 0, 2-9 are face value
Step 4
Now is time for the fun!! Begin watching the game, at the end of each half match the last digit of each teams score with the grid.
Example: At the end of the first half if the team listed up top has 17 and the team listed on the left side has 14. Go to the top row of numbers and find the number 7(last digit of 17) then go to the left column of numbers and find the number 4(last digit of 14) find where these two numbers intersect on the grid and the name in that square wins the first half.
There are a few different ways to split up the prize pool , make sure this is discussed before selling the squares. The most common method is to give the winner of each half 50% of the prize pool. It is possible that a player can win both halves and the whole prize pool. Be sure to discuss what is going to be done in case of an overtime, some people will just ignore the overtime score, some people will substitute the overtime score for the second half, and others will divide the prize pool in thirds. Once again to avoid problems make sure all of this is discussed before selling the squares.

Say It By Spraying It: What Your Perfume Says About You
There's a long-running trope in perfume advertising that perfume speaks, and what it broadcasts is a message about its wearer.
In the 1950s, many perfumes spoke the message of feminine sexuality, a subversive message that was only socially acceptable to be spoken subliminally and invisibly, in perfume. In the 1950s perfume ad for Primitif, under the image of a sultry super-vixen with half-parted lips who looks like she just jumped from the cover of a pulp novel, a tagline asks, "Why not let your perfume say the things you would not dare to?"
In Guerlain's Chant d'Aromes ad from 1965, we're told that a great perfume must do two things: "It must express something for a woman that she would like to express herself, and it must be said in away that can be understood by men." And in a Nuance ad from 1978, a few years before the big-shouldered 1980s fragrances such as Giorgio and Christian Dior's Poison shouted their messages, women were told their perfume shouldn't be too strong or loud. "If you want to capture someone's attention," it advised, "whisper."
Perfumes still "say" things, of course, but in a post-signature scent era, when women (and men) are offered upwards of 1,000 new fragrances a year to choose from, most people express different things with their perfumes, depending on their moods, the event they're going to, what they're wearing, or whatever they happen to grab on their dressers. Are these eternal, "essential" truths about their wearers? Not so much, since perfume can be applied and taken off as easily as a Roberto Cavalli leopard print maxi-dress or an L.L. Bean down vest-jacket.
Here are some of the most popular perfume families — and what they say about you to others.
Citrus/Marine/Ozonic (i.e. "clean") - You probably carry hand sanitizer in your purse and consider organizing the contents of your purse as one of your hobbies. No-nonsense, unsentimental, and efficient, you are the leader of the pack, and probably prefer Tory Burch flats to Louboutin blood-red-heeled stillettos.
Floral – You like baking cookies, hand-writing thank you notes, and the idea of true love. You are a mix of introverted and extroverted. You project a conventional femininity that some would describe as "classic." To you, perfume means "flowers," and you don't see any need to question what has worked for millennia.
Fruity and Fruity-Florals - Bubbly, flirty, and fun, you don't take anything too seriously, and you're the person people invite to their cocktail parties to get the festivities going. You're open and friendly.
Gourmand – You are romantic and seductive. After all, you want to smell like vanilla, chocolate, praline, and cotton candy — things someone could take a big bite out of. Generous and larger than life, you're not sure why someone would decorate her apartment in an all-beige color scheme when purple leopard-spotted wallpaper is available. In spite of the va-va-va-voom quality of the fragrances you like, you are also a comfort seeker. You probably own a hidden pair of jeggings you wear underneath your Snuggie on cold nights on the couch while eating bonbons.
Oriental — Like the gourmand lover, you prefer perfumes that contain sweet notes of vanilla and amber, but they also need dark and mysterious notes such as frankincense and myrrh. Romantic and sensitive, you live in your own world, or at least do your best to make the one you're in conform to your dreams. Some might describe you as "intense," others a "drama queen." When your perfume contains the "tears" or resins that "weep" from the barks of trees when they're wounded, as labdanum and balsams do, what do they expect?
Mossy and Woody — You may be living in the 21st century, but you're what some might have described in the past as a "dame," and maybe even a "dame with moxie." Like the gal below, no one is going to find you sipping on an Appletini or wearing pink. More than likely, you'll be the one drinking a bitter espresso in the corner café reading Camus, Sheila Heti, or the DSM5 — for fun. On a sunny Saturday afternoon. You're probably a Scorpio.
Leather/tobacco/musk/oud/incense: Voted in high school "most likely to grow up to be an international spy," your Platonic ideal of a good night out is donning your vintage Yves Saint Laurent "Le Smoking" suit, drinking single-malt scotch neat at a dive bar with a mysterious stranger you just picked up at an art gallery in NYC's Chelsea neighborhood, and making out with him — or her — in the back of a taxi cab.
Barbara Herman is a perfume blogger at YesterdaysPerfume.com, and author of "Scent and Subversion: Decoding a Century of Provocative Perfume" (Lyons Press, 2013). Three of the categories above are on permanent rotation on her skin.

Thai Massage Coconut BallsAn intoxicating experience that evokes the feeling of the tropics while providing one of the secrets of Asian skin care. Coconut oil is known for its antioxidant and anti-aging properties leading to soft, smooth and supple skin. This bundle of pure coconut is steamed and applied in a hot massage that helps this beneficial oil penetrate deep into the skin. 2 Large.
I'd love for them to be as large as the Thai Herbal Ball, the 150 mg size. These are too small for the body. If you place to much pressure on the body with them, they also leak the milky white liquid onto the client. They don't hold their shape as well as the other thai herbal balls.
I was excited to receive the Thai Herbal Coconut Balls, and soaked them right away to heat up and use. Unfortunately, after the first use, and despite trying to dry them, they mildewed within a couple of days and I had to throw them away. I was very disappointed.
The size is only 100mgs. you can only do a small area of the body. e.g. feet and face.

If the bill itself didn't infuriate people enough, this little comment should do nicely to fire some more people up that were on the fence about it.
The French commission for opinion polls has ruled that Twitter and Facebook fall within the legal definition of media
I think maybe you've missed the mark on this one Mike. I don't think they are attacking Facebook or Twitter. Well, maybe Twitter but not directly. The 140 character limit is also on txting.
I keep hearing lately that txting is to blame for people's lack of civility. Txting your brother/sister/mother/father/friends "I love you!"/"Hey whats up?" is not the same as picking up the phone and having the 20 minute conversation about nothing that a personal interaction requires. Combine that with the prevalence of smart phones/tables/internet connectivity and I think that they are trying to replace those sort of short impersonal types of communication with something that can be much more personal and actually connect with people.
Just my 2˘
I completely agree with you Vic. There is just no way I can justify spending $50 for a PPV event. I could PROBABLY spend $20 on a live PPV event, but that would still be a pill I had trouble swallowing. While I have never been able to find (never really cared to try that hard) a stream for a live event I try to find the ones still on the net a few days later. They also want to charge like $40 to for an old PPV event days/weeks/months after it has taken place (or at least when I was checking that stuff out a few years ago). $10 off of an event is not enough of a discount. It needs to be like $2.00 for me to pay to watch an old event.
I love the UFC, I love the free live stuff that they do provide, but $50 is WAY too much for a PPV event for me. I'd love to hand over some money to watch an event, just not $50 for one event. $50 for one YEAR, YES! $50 for one EVENT, NO!
I feel bad that this guy has to fight history/bad tags, but I would have to agree, this would appear to be an SEO problem. Seems like hitting your head against a wall would be more efficient than trying to sue Google for a rank issue.
Its unfortunate that the original picture host was unwilling to change the tags on the images. I think that also could have helped to change the ranking of them. Maybe the original host will change their minds and try to help out?

(Reuters) - A temporary shortage in the United States of one of the leading flu medicines used to treat children with the sometimes deadly virus has been resolved, Roche, the maker of Tamiflu, said on Thursday.
Due to high demand and packaging delays, Roche had experienced a shortage of supplies of the liquid version of the medicine, known a Tamiflu Oral Suspension, used to treat children under the age of 13 and adults unable to swallow pills.
"We now anticipate having sufficient supply of both the liquid and capsule forms of Tamiflu to meet demand for this flu season," Roche spokeswoman Tara Iannuccillo said in an emailed statement.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has added Tamiflu OS to the list of resolved drug shortages on its website with the notation "no supply issues anticipated."
Tamiflu is used to reduce the severity of the flu when taken at the outset of symptoms. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that people get flu shots to prevent the virus.
So far this season, 35 U.S. states have reported widespread cases of flu and another 12 said they had regional influenza activity, with 10 pediatric deaths associated with the virus reported, according to the CDC.
Thousands of people die every year from flu, which typically peaks in the United States between the months of October and March.
Despite the brief shortage of liquid Tamiflu, there has been a continuous supply of the 75 milligram capsules, Roche said.
Tamiflu is manufactured by Roche's U.S. biotech unit Genentech and supplied to retail pharmacies through a network of distributors.

Respect for One Another – Respect for Democracy
The relationship between the majority society and the country's Muslim residents is one of the foremost topics of public debate in Germany today. And this discussion often enough escalates into a dispute.
Muslim immigrants simply do not want to assimilate into German society, is a popular accusation from the ranks of the old, established majority. The majority of Germans, comes the reply from the other side, are hostile to Islam and try to exclude Muslim residents from public life in this country.
The reality is admittedly much more complicated than that, and this complexity must be acknowledged and appreciated.
An important part of this recognition is to illuminate the background against which the demands for integration must be met. Historically, the German identity has been shaped not only by the German language and culture, but also by the Christian faith. Anyone whose culture did not fit into these parameters was perceived as alien. The population group that experienced the effects of this exclusionism most painfully was the Jews, whose presence on German ground dates all the way back to the year zero. The tragic culmination of Jewish strivings to be accepted by the German people is only too familiar.
Today, Germany is a liberal democracy. Therefore, any parallels drawn between the Holocaust and the xenophobia that by all means exists today in Germany with regard to Muslims is not only an insult to the victims of Nazi genocide, but also reveals an utter disregard and ignorance of the democratic achievements of the Federal Republic of Germany since 1945.
Hurdles to integration
Nevertheless, the historically anchored self-image held by German society remains omnipresent and places a burden on the integration of immigrants and their children. This is not meant as a reproach – for it is just as impossible to impose a supraethnic national identity from above in Germany as it is in any other country – but it does make it all the more pressing for us to find a better model for coexistence.
For the majority society, the key tasks are to spread knowledge of Islam and the Muslims as well as to consistently inculcate respect and tolerance for others. I would dare to claim that most Germans are not familiar with the basic facts about Islam and the Islamic culture.
In debates about Islam, for instance, God is usually referred to as "Allah" – a different, separate, divinity, so to speak, more severe and unyielding than the Christian "God of love". And how many Germans know anything about Islamic social doctrines, jurisprudence or the duty to act charitably?
Hence, it is urgent that a more balanced view of Islamic religion and civilisation be imparted to the majority society. As long as this does not happen, or does not happen sufficiently, prejudices will proliferate.
Education and enlightenment called for
I know that knowledge transfer is no easy task. It requires the creation of teaching materials for schools and other institutions, the education of teachers, plenty of time and of course funds, which always seem to be scarce. And it is not always popular politically: people are loath to give up their old, cherished prejudices, which let them avoid coming to terms with uncomfortable themes.
And yet without a comprehensive effort at enlightenment on the federal, state and municipal levels, "Islamophobia" and hostility toward Muslims will continue to spread. This is not only immoral, but promotes divisiveness and cements the tendency of some Muslim social strata to set up parallel societies.
On the other hand, we must reject the demand made by fundamentalist Muslim circles that we should compromise our liberal, democratic basic order in Germany, for example the right to free speech or equal rights for women, to achieve successful integration of Muslims.
We must likewise refuse to condone the creation of areas where the German code of law is replaced by Sharia jurisdiction for Muslims.
Dissociation from anti-democrats
Naturally, every form of religiously motivated violence must be combated, whether directed against other Muslims or non-Muslims. In the process, the law-abiding and democracy-affirming majority of German Muslims must stand shoulder to shoulder with the law-abiding and democracy-affirming majority in our country.
In a free society democrats must dissociate themselves from anti-democrats – and not from Muslims and Christians or Jews. Therefore, leading figures in the Muslim community – politicians, religious leaders, community activists, authors and others – are now as before called upon to distance themselves from extremists in a way that is evident to all. The more resolutely they do so, the more they contribute to the integration of Muslims.
However, not only prominent members of the majority or minority societies bear this duty, but rather each and every citizen. All of us should not only advocate respect for others in theory, but should actually live by this precept in our daily lives.
And we must do so not only with our heads, but also, in keeping with the Bible's Third Commandment (3rd Book of Moses, 19:18): We-ahawta le-Reacha kamocha: "Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself," also with our hearts. This is the only way to ensure a common future for the good of our country.

Aftermath, a Polish film based on the historical book Neighbors: The Destruction of the Jewish Community in Jedwabne, Poland by Jan T. Gross, was recently released in limited showing in the United States, including New York City and Los Angeles (with Boston, Chicago and more to come shortly).
The official website for the film can be found here on Menemsha Films' website, which includes a short synopsis, a trailer, photos from the film, and reviews. It also has links to locations and showtimes for the film in the United States.
The film was reviewed by The New York Times, which can be found here.
One summer day in 1941, half of the Polish town of Jedwabne murdered the other half, 1,600 men, women, and children, all but seven of the town's Jews. Neighbors tells their story.
This is a shocking, brutal story that has never before been told. It is the most important study of Polish-Jewish relations to be published in decades and should become a classic of Holocaust literature.
Jan Gross pieces together eyewitness accounts and other evidence into an engulfing reconstruction of the horrific July day remembered well by locals but forgotten by history. His investigation reads like a detective story, and its unfolding yields wider truths about Jewish-Polish relations, the Holocaust, and human responses to occupation and totalitarianism. It is a story of surprises: The newly occupying German army did not compel the massacre, and Jedwabne's Jews and Christians had previously enjoyed cordial relations. After the war, the nearby family who saved Jedwabne's surviving Jews was derided and driven from the area. The single Jew offered mercy by the town declined it.
Most arresting is the sinking realization that Jedwabne's Jews were clubbed, drowned, gutted, and burned not by faceless Nazis, but by people whose features and names they knew well: their former schoolmates and those who sold them food, bought their milk, and chatted with them in the street. As much as such a question can ever be answered, Neighbors tells us why.

Ability To Take Thousands Of High-Resolution Images Lets Photographers Concentrate On Their Subject
ORLANDO, FL, Feb. 26, 2006 - With increasing sales of high-resolution digital cameras, video camcorders and other electronics devices that require more memory capacity and speed, SanDisk ® Corporation (NASDAQ: SNDK) today announced the 4-gigabyte (GB) SanDisk Ultra ® II Memory Stick PRO Duo ™ card. The addition of this card to its high-speed SanDisk Ultra II line of flash memory cards represents a doubling of its highest capacity card in this card format. The announcement was made at the Photo Marketing Association trade show where SanDisk is demonstrating products in booth #2741.
The Ultra II cards are primarily targeted to advanced digital photographers with high-resolution digital cameras that require fast, large-capacity digital film cards to quickly shoot many high resolution images. Each SanDisk Ultra II card features a minimum write speed of 9 megabytes per second (MB/sec.) and a minimum read speed of 10MB/sec. These fast write speeds are designed to take advantage of advanced digital camera features such as rapid fire, continuous-shooting modes or to capture digital video clips.
"Sony and other manufacturers continue to introduce cameras and other consumer electronics products that can leverage the fast SanDisk Ultra II Memory Stick PRO Duo cards," said Tanya Chuang, senior retail product marketing manager at SanDisk. "Memory Stick PRO Duo continues to be a key format among flash memory cards and we continue to find an eager market for these faster and higher-capacity cards."

Adventures as an Intern: Intel's Free Press
The Network, Cisco's Technology News Site, launched recently and includes feature stories from world-class journalists, videos, infographics and blogs, as well as Cisco-focused content. Our effort got me wondering what Cisco's tech brethren are doing on the corporate newsroom front, so I spent the past week exploring how Intel communicates news.
Here's what I found. The chip maker has a miniature news bureau within the company website called Free Press, which highlights "behind the scenes" tech industry feature stories, videos and streaming radio programs produced by Intel staff. Although the news is produced by Intel Free Press Contributors, this site is not to be confused with the Intel Press Center. The eight-month-old Free Press is still in Beta, but Managing Editor Bill Calder hopes the site will become a credible news source in the changing landscape of journalism.
In order to encourage readers to share the content, there are Twitter, Linked In, Flickr and RSS Feed buttons on the home page. There is also a box dedicated to recent articles that are shared as Facebook posts on the Intel Fan Page. The "Free Shots," 50- to 60-word briefs, provide easily-shareable information for readers, and a sidebar for videos about technology link to the IntelFreePress YouTube Channel.
Free Press also has a box of the most tagged keywords. So far, the most tagged keyword is Intel, but the site's content also focuses on other companies. "[It] is most definitely not a corporate blog," Calder says. Indeed, if you spend a little time poking around the site, you will find articles that do not relate to Intel at all.
There is also a disclaimer on Free Press that states that none of the content is copyrighted and promotes sharing; it quite literally says "Take Our Stuff." The goal says Calder, is to "get content to move up and out and into the news ecosystem." The results so far have been positive; content from the Free Press has appeared everywhere from Incisor Magazine, NPR.org and MIT Tech Review.
Free Press also introduced Intel Free Press Mobile Local News, a free mobile application for smart phones. Most of its competitors don't have an app for their newsrooms.
Key Takeaways
Intel's Free Press is a valuable source of information for those looking for Intel-ligence. Sorry, I had to. All puns aside, Free Press has created an interactive forum with catchy ways of sharing news, such as the "Free Shot." The fact that none of the information is copyrighted is also a great way to encourage content sharing and reposting, which helps amplifiy Intel and its newsroom. The free mobile application is also a great way for readers to get news on the go.
That's all I have for you right now, but join me next week as I investigate another newsroom. Also, be sure to check out CiscoLive which runs from July 10-14 in Las Vegas, and send me a postcard! I'm Kati Dahm, and these are my adventures as an intern.
In an effort to keep conversations fresh, Cisco Blogs closes comments after 60 days. Please visit the Cisco Blogs hub page for the latest content.
2 Comments
Free press is good press. Youtube is a great way to share a message and also a valuable tool for marketing.
Staying connected to the social media stream is smart for any business. It has been quite good for mine.

Defining Problem Solving
|Introduction | Connecting to Other Problem-Solving Experiences | Teacher's Role | Monitor and Reflect on Problem Solving | Providing Rich Problems | Your Journal
Young children naturally solve problems in their daily lives and can be encouraged to do so by parents and teachers. For example, they may want to figure out how long they'll need to save their allowance in order to buy a particular toy, or how to divide a pizza equally among all the guests at a birthday party. In partnership with an older sibling or an adult, they often can solve their own problems long before encountering similar problems in the classroom. As teachers introduce new topics in the classroom, they can capitalize on children's natural curiosity. As we've seen, problem solving involves much more than solving word or story problems that accompany a new skill or concept in a textbook. True problem-solving tasks occur in a context where the solution path is not readily apparent; students have to identify the problem, decide on the solution method, and then implement it.

I guess I'll start with what came first. Ethan turned one last month! I can't believe he is already a year old! For his birthday we did cupcakes with hot dogs on them. ( the hot dogs were made of circus peanuts and caramels...not real hot dogs.) They turned out really fun. Ethan is such a sweet boy. He's toddling around the house now, and never wants to stop. Now that he can walk, he thinks he has to do it all the time! He loves to play with the boys and climb on everything. We are so glad he is in our family.
Thanksgiving also came and went. We made turkeys out of apples and marshmallows, the boys loved them. They also loved to eat them. We got to go to My mom's family for Thanksgiving day. It was a long trip down to Provo, but it was so nice. We also were able to go to our friends Eric and Leah's baby blessing while we were down. It was so nice to visit with them and see sweet baby Dane.
Last but not least my sweet little brother Adam just got home from his mission to Hawaii on Friday. It was so great to see him! My favorite part was that all the missionaries from Hawaii came home with a ton of lais? around their necks, and as he gave each of us a hug he gave us each a lai. It was so sweet! I love it when they first come home because of the sweet spirits they bring with them.
Christmas is just around the corner, so hopefully another post will follow soon.

NEW YORK, N.Y. - Miley Cyrus, Anne Hathaway and Cameron Diaz were among the celebrities to embrace the punk theme at Monday night's Met gala, the fundraiser at the Metropolitan Museum of Art that's affectionately known as "the party of the year." But Beyonce, the event's honorary chairwoman, seemed the girl on fire on the red carpet that might rival the Oscars in celebrity wattage.
Wearing a flame-motif gown with long gloves and a long train by Givenchy's Riccardo Tisci, Beyonce was one of the last arrivals, following in the studded heel footsteps of Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, Jennifer Lawrence and Jennifer Lopez.
Beyonce was already thinking ahead, though, wondering if she'd need scissors at the end of the night to get out of the corset.
Many stars embraced the big Costume Institute exhibit they were there to celebrate: "Punk: From Chaos to Couture." Beyonce's co-chairs for the event included Tisci, who escorted Rooney Mara, who wore a white lace gown with exaggerated shoulders and a heavy-hardware zip front.
Mara said she never went through a punk fashion phase but "I was definitely a punk."
Tisci also dressed Kim Kardashian, who has seen much of her maternity wardrobe reviewed — almost always negatively — on social media on a daily basis. The online critics have more fodder with her floral-print, high-neck gown.
In a more classic style — but likely tabloid fodder anyway — were Tiger Woods and Lindsey Vonn, walking the red carpet as a couple.
Sarah Jessica Parker donned an oversized feather mohawk by Philip Treacy that complemented her graffiti-splashed and slashed gown by Giles Deacon, which she also paired with custom-made, thigh-high, tartan-plaid Christian Louboutin boots. She paid careful attention to the theme, she said. "I just want to be asked back next year! That's all that matters!"
Cameron Diaz and Anne Hathaway both said they were influenced by the punk scene — especially the music — when they were growing up. Diaz came with Kristen Stewart and Stella McCartney, who designed both of their outfits. Diaz's cobalt-colored cape dress had a severe studded belt. "I feel so chic," Diaz said.
Hathaway showed off a short blond hairdo, not dissimilar to Miley Cyrus', and a vintage burned-out Valentino gown. Hathaway said her inspiration for the outfit was Blondie's Debbie Harry, who was just a few steps ahead on the red carpet in a glitzy studded blazer by Tommy Hilfiger.
"Punk rock has a unique culture and distinct style that I really admire," Hilfiger told The Associated Press earlier in the day. "Music of all genres has always been a central influence in my designs. I tend to gravitate more toward classic American rock, but I listen to and love punk rock albums from The Ramones and Blondie."
Katie Holmes, in a moulded gown with a metal halter neckline by Calvin Klein's Francisco Costa, also gave a nod to Harry as her punk icon.
Madonna said she was a fan of Sid Vicious and Nancy Spungen "and that whole era." Still, she added, she didn't want her plaid jacket, netted top and stockings to be too literal. "I wanted to do my own thing, but my own twist on it."
The Met gala traditionally mixes Hollywood stars, fashion designers and top models. It's largely orchestrated by Anna Wintour, Vogue's editor-in-chief. She wore a hot-pink floral Chanel gown, which she said is a colour that symbolizes the punk movement.
The edgy theme could have thrown some people off their fashion game. "I think (punk) is so eclectic and so original and maybe it sort of represents what's very fearless about fashion."
Other fashion statements:
—Swift: form-fitting J. Mendel black silk crepe gown with black lace insert and a heavily embellished metallic crystal neckline. It was one of many looks that was to be made almost immediately available through the website Moda Operandi. (These are bona fide, designer gowns, not knockoffs.)
—Lawrence: strapless black with a slim belt by Christian Dior's Raf Simons.
—Perry: beaded Dolce & Gabbana dress with a "Joan of Arc" vibe — complete with crown.
—Cyrus: a sparkly netted gown over a sheer body slip by Marc Jacobs.
—Jennifer Lopez: black leopard sequin-embroidered gown by Michael Kors.
—Jessica Biel: Giambattista Valli snakeskin gown with macrame pants underneath.
—Jessica Alba: laser-cut leather fishtail gown by Tory Burch.
—Ashley Greene: Gold leaf-covered dress by Marchesa.
—Gwyneth Paltrow: long-sleeve, hot-pink Valentino gown.
—Claire Danes: chainmail-embroidered gown by Oscar de la Renta.
—Hailee Steinfeld: Donna Karan Atelier leather-corset dress decorated with antique gold safety pins.
—Gisele Bundchen: chain-neckline minidress by Anthony Vaccarello.
—Gwen Stefani: black bow-top gown with white bottom by Maison Martin Margiela.

Wigger, ordained a teaching elder in the Presbyterian Church (USA), has served churches in Colorado and Wisconsin, was a social worker working in a school of special education in Illinois, and taught at Princeton Theological Seminary and Marian College of Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, before joining the faculty at Louisville Seminary in 1997.
In addition to serving on the Seminary's faculty, Wigger directed the Seminary's Center for Congregations and Family Ministries for nearly a decade before turning to full time teaching. As Center Director, he edited the journal Family Ministry, co-edited the Families and Faith book series (Jossey-Bass), provided leadership educational opportunities through conferences and workshops, and taught and continues to teach courses focused upon children and families, child advocacy, practical theology, writing, and the church's teaching ministry.
Wigger has authored several articles and books, the most recent of which is the forthcoming picture book, Thank You, God (Eerdman's) and Original Knowing: How Religion, Science, and the Human Mind Point to the Irreducible Depth of Life (Cascade, 2012). He has also written a book of table, devotional and bedtime prayers, rooted in the Psalms, called Together We Pray: A Prayer Book for Families (Chalice, 2005); a book for parents called The Power of God at Home: Nurturing Our Children in Love and Grace (Jossey-Bass, 2003); and a book based on his doctoral research in epistemology, The Texture of Mystery: An Interdisciplinary Inquiry into Perception and Learning (Bucknell University Press, 1998).
In 2009, he began conducting research in children's cognitive development as part of Oxford University's Cognition, Religion, and Theology project, and he is now continuing the work cross-culturally by interviewing children in other countries.

High Efficiency Refrigerator
Refrigerators consume between 12% and 19% of all electricity in a typical Californian home. That means refrigerators typically use more electricity than any other single household appliance. The good news: refrigerators have become much more efficient in the past 20 years, using 60% less electricity on average than 20-year-old-models. Even better news: get a $75 rebate when you purchase a qualifying high efficiency model for your home or business.
Out with the old, in with the efficient
Replacing your 10-year-old refrigerator with a new high-efficiency model can:
- Save you up to $30 per year on your electricity bill.
- Conserve enough energy to light the average household for a month and half.
- Prevent the release of an additional 100 pounds of carbon dioxide emitted from burning fossil fuels to generate electricity per year.
How to Get Your Rebate
- You must be a PG&E customer with an active electrical meter at the address where you're installing the high-efficiency refrigerator.
- The refrigerator must be a Consortium for Energy Efficiency (CEE) Tier 3 Model. Review this list to find the latest qualifying models.
- Not all ENERGY STAR® refrigerators qualify for this rebate. Be sure to consult this list to find the latest qualifying models.
- Additionally, CEE Tier 1 and 2 models do not qualify.
PG&E's 2012 refrigerator rebate program is available for qualifying products that are purchased and installed between April 1, 2012 and December 31, 2012. Rebate payment is not guaranteed as funds are limited and amounts and offerings are subject to change. All rebate program terms and conditions apply.

Buyer's Tips
See how much you'll save by retiring your refrigerator. Use this ENERGY STAR Savings Calculator to get a better idea of the relative operating cost of your current model compared to a new ENERGY STAR qualified model.
Refrigerators with top-mounted freezers generally use 10%-25% less energy than refrigerators with either side-mounted or bottom-mounted freezers.
Consider skipping the ice-maker and dispenser, as these features increase energy usage by 14% - 20%. They also raise the purchase price by $75 to $250.

I have a website where I display a devotional each day of the year. I make a html file for each day of every month, and daily copy & paste the right day to my index.html file. I'm looking for a javascript ajax that can load a different file every day of the year, 366 days, not 31 days.
Is it possible to use your script title "Daily Iframe Content II" and expand 'daycontent [31] until daycontent [366]?
And can I change the name of the file to be load, instead of "1.html" so something more meaningful to me like the date of the year, because I won't be able to know which day is "249.html". The way that I name is something like this: "05-23-2013-i_need_god's_grace.html" It is long, but I need a way to handle 366 different files every single year, and I have 5 years doing it the hard way. It 's time due to learn javascript and ajax!!!
Please, if anyone of you can help me, will be appreciated.
Molina Ossers.

I'll Take My Chances
Either this is the new "Russian Roulette" event in a Competitive Eating Competition, or someone is trying to tell the cake-lover in their life to start prioritizing. If said cake-lover is anything like me, however, he or she would be reading the word "Poison" with 3 bon bons already stuffed in her cheeks, chipmunk style.
And lest you think the odds are 1 in 6, like I initially did, look again. There are actually bon-bons ringing the whole cake, so your odds are more like 1 in 30. Well, assuming you only eat one, of course, which we all know would be against the laws of nature.
Aside from the possible poisoning attempt, this cake also breaks the laws of good taste by employing a sporadic color palette, sickly-looking yellow "flowers" (I use the term loosely), and a general over-use of the star tip: it looks like someone decorated the whole thing with a Redi-Whip can. Also, if we're to assume those red things are berries (see, John? I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt!), why are most of them centered on the "leaves"?

Jump to: Lung Cancer Rates | Prevention | Summary
Lung Cancer Rates
Incidence is the number of new lung cancer cases diagnosed each year. The rate of new lung cancer cases in Georgia is 67.7, about the same as the national rate of 63.0, and ranks 32nd among all states.
5-Year Survival Rate
The percent of people still alive five years after being diagnosed with lung cancer (the survival rate) in Georgia is 18.1 percent, lower than the national rate of 20.0 percent, and 23rd among the 31 states with survival data. It is important to track survival rates in order to identify progress against lung cancer and where more efforts are needed to save lives.
Stage at Diagnosis
Most lung cancer cases are diagnosed at later stages when the cancer has spread to other organs, treatment options are more limited, and survival is lower.
In Georgia only 18.4 percent of cases are caught early when survival is much higher (49.8 percent). Unfortunately, most cases (53.3 percent) are not caught until a late stage when survival is only 4.2 percent. Stage at diagnosis does not add up to 100 percent because middle stages are not shown.
|Percent of Cases Diagnosed at Stage
|5-Year Survival
|Percent of Cases Diagnosed at Stage
|5-Year Survival
Surgical Treatment
Lung cancer can often be treated with surgery as part of the first course of treatment if it is at an early stage and has not spread outside of the lung and lymph nodes close to the lung. While surgery may not be an option for every patient, those who receive it as part of their initial treatment have higher survival rates than those who do not. Patients who are not healthy enough to undergo the procedure or whose cancer has spread too far may not be candidates for surgery. Other treatments may be recommended instead of or in addition to surgery, such as chemotherapy, radiation, targeted therapy or immunotherapy.
Georgia ranked 24th (out of the 48 states with available data) with 20.3 percent of cases undergoing surgery as part of the first course of treatment, about the same rate as nationally (21.0 percent).
Screening for lung cancer with annual low-dose CT scans among those at high risk can reduce the lung cancer death rate by up to 20 percent by detecting tumors at early stages when they are more likely to be curable.
High-risk is defined as:
- 55-80 years of age;
- Have a 30 pack-year history of smoking (this means 1 pack a day for 30 years, 2 packs a day for 15 years, etc.);
- AND, are a current smoker, or have quit within the last 15 years.
For screening to be most effective, patients must be able to access high-quality centers offering the service, such as those accredited by the American College of Radiology. Patients may benefit from a greater number of accredited centers in their state as can improve the chances of a center being nearby and their ability to get screened.
Georgia ranked 31st among all states with 3.8 accredited lung cancer screening centers per million people, worse than the national rate of 4.8 centers per million people. This shows there are a low number of screening centers throughout the state available to the high-risk population in Georgia. This decreases the likelihood that an individual would have access to a screening center nearby, which could be a barrier to lung cancer screening.
Tobacco use is the leading risk factor for lung cancer. Smoking and second-hand smoke have both been shown to cause lung cancer.
The smoking rate in Georgia is 17.7 percent, about the same as the national average of 16.8 percent.
The line in the chart shows that, on average, each one point increase in the smoking rate for a state equals an increase of 2.4 points in the lung cancer incidence (the number of new lung cancer cases) rate. For Georgia the smoking rate is about the same as the national average, while the lung cancer incidence rate is higher than what would be expected for this smoking rate, as shown by the Georgia data point being above the green line in the chart. This suggests that people living in Georgia might have higher exposures to other risk factors besides smoking.
Each year the American Lung Association puts out the "State of Tobacco Control" report. The 2018 report grades all 50 states and the federal government on four key tobacco control policies: tobacco control and prevention spending, smokefree air, tobacco taxes, and cessation coverage. Georgia's 2018 "State of Tobacco Control" report grades are:
- "F" for Tobacco Prevention Program Funding;
- "C" for Smokefree Air;
- "F" for Tobacco Taxes;
- "F" for Access to Tobacco Cessation Treatments; and
- "F" for Tobacco 21 Laws.
For more information about smoking, visit Lung.org/stop-smoking.
Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer. Radon is a colorless and odorless gas that can seep into homes and buildings. Some geographical areas have naturally higher prevalence of high radon levels than others, but any home can have elevated levels. The US EPA has set an action level of 4 pCi/L. At or above this level of radon, the EPA recommends you take corrective measures to reduce your exposure to radon gas.
- 4 counties in Georgia are considered Zone 1 which means they have predicted average indoor radon screening levels greater than 4 pCi/L.
- 55 counties in Georgia are considered Zone 2 which means they have predicted average indoor radon screening levels from 2 to 4 pCi/L.
For more information on radon testing and removal, visit Lung.org/radon.
Air Pollution is a known risk factor of lung cancer.
- One outdoor air pollutant found to cause lung cancer is year-round particle pollution. Each year the American Lung Association puts out the "State of the Air 2017" report. The 2017 report grades U.S. counties on harmful particle pollution and ozone pollution recorded over a three-year period, and details trends for metropolitan areas over the past two decades. The report ranks also both the cleanest and most polluted areas in the country. View the Georgia report card.
For more information about air pollution, visit Lung.org/healthy-air.
Learn more about the other risk factors for lung cancer and how you can reduce your risk.
Both the smoking rate and lung cancer incidence rate in Georgia are similar to average. Despite having fewer screening centers per person than average, the state has an average rate of surgery during the initial round of treatment, although the survival rate is worse than average.
Georgia residents can lower their risk of lung cancer, as well as the risk of those around them, through these steps:
- Talk to your healthcare provider if you meet the high-risk criteria, and encourage others who meet the criteria to do the same:
- If you or someone you know is ready to quit smoking, the American Lung Association is here to help. Our Freedom From Smoking program has helped over a million people quit smoking for good.
- Higher tobacco taxes both encourage people to quit and prevent children and others from starting to smoke.
- Well-funded tobacco control programs are an important part of helping people quit and keeping potential new smokers from starting.
- Comprehensive coverage of all FDA-approved smoking cessation medication and the three forms of counseling, with no barriers to accessing them, leads to more successful quit attempts.
- Make your house and car smokefree air zones, with no smoking allowed. Avoid places that are not smokefree, and advocate for smokefree air policies in restaurants, bars, casinos or anywhere they are not in place.
- Test your house for radon, and take steps to reduce your risk if levels are too high.
- Reduce your exposure to unhealthy outdoor air.
- Stay indoors on unhealthy air days.
- Support clean air policies, including emissions limits and no vehicle idling zones.
Maintaining a high number of quality, accredited screening centers will help ensure that both as many patients undergo surgery during their initial round of treatment and as high a survival rate as possible.

N.Y. law allows gun data to stay private
The bill is described as a safety measure, protecting gun owners from harassment.
ALBANY, N.Y. — After the maelstrom created by the publication of an online database of gun owners in two New York counties, the state Legislature is set to allow gun owners to keep their information private.
The bill, which was signed by Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Tuesday, permits gun licensees to opt out of having their personal information available to the public under the state's Freedom of Information Law. There are a number of criteria to opt out of the disclosure, including fear of harassment if the information is released.
STORY: N.Y. 1st to tighten gun laws after Newtown
STORY: Gun-law push starts slowly in most states
Bob Freeman, executive director of the state's Committee on Open Government, said he supports the gun-control bill's provision to limit public access.
"If the legislation adds to people's safety -- particularly the safety of our children -- I think it is more than worthwhile," Freeman said. "The legislation gives licensees an option to permit the disclosure of their names and addresses or to protect themselves if they feel that is warranted."
The (Westchester, N.Y.) Journal News, a Gannett Co. Inc. publication, last month published an interactive map of handgun licenses in Westchester and Rockland counties that drew national criticism. Putnam County has refused the paper's FOIL request for the information, citing citizens' safety. Some good-governments groups supported the newspaper's efforts because they said Putnam was violating state law.
Russ Haven, counsel to the New York Public Interest Group, said Tuesday that the group supported the Journal News' effort to get the Putnam data because it was at the time public. He said he would not weigh in on whether it should have remained public.
"There are reasonable positions on both sides," he said.
New York Gov. Cuomo signed a bill into law Tuesday, to restrict gun sales and require reporting of threats by mentally ill. (Jan. 15) AP
Assemblyman Thomas Abinanti, a Democrat from Westchester County, expressed concern that the bill infringes not on the Second Amendment, as critics have suggested, but the First Amendment, which guarantees free speech.
Abinanti still voted for the legislation, which he characterized as a good first step.
"I believe freedom of the press and freedom of speech is the true champion and true protector of democracy," Abinanti said on the Assembly floor. "And to say to the newspapers that they can't publish information that the public wants to know, I think is the true violation of our Constitution."
Republican Sen. Greg Ball, R-Patterson, of Putnam County, opposed the gun-control bill, but was pleased that the privacy measures were included.
"As a community we stood firm on principle and fought for common sense against the idiocy of the Journal News," Ball said in a statement. "Tonight we have won a big battle against their unwarranted invasion."
The gun-control package includes a provision to keep private a statewide database on gun owners and ammunition sales that would be used by law enforcement and mental health professional to enforce the state's new laws.
On the county level, clerks would oversee the opt-out option on license applications -- which includes options for law enforcement officials, victims of domestic violence, people who had served on a grand jury and those who fear for their safety or are concerned about harassment.
For the first 120 days of the new law, no information on gun licenses would be available; then the opt-out provision would take effect. People who already have licenses would be allowed to go back to the county clerks and fill out a form to opt out. All gun licenses would have to be re-certified every five years, and local officials could choose not to grant the privacy of an applicant if there is inaccurate information on the form.
Freeman said he expected most gun owners would opt out of the disclosure. He said the new legislation is consistent with laws on other sensitive personal information. Health care documents and school records of children often have an opt-out policy, he said.
"As privacy laws are generally presented, not only in this country, but around the world, often the subject of the record is given a degree of control over disclosure, and certainly this new provision is consistent with that general notion," Freeman said.
Jackie Hilly, head of New Yorkers Against Gun Violence, said last week that she wouldn't object to having the information private.
"I think it's important for the police to have that information," she said.
Sen. David Carlucci, a Democrat from Rockland County, said he also supported the privacy measures.
"Of great importance to all New York gun owners, this bill ensures better privacy standards here in New York by establishing a state database of pistol permits that is not subject to FOIL," he said in a statement.

- How to Read a Study Record
- People who have cerebral palsy often have difficulty walking and moving their legs. Cerebral palsy is sometimes not identified until a child is almost 2 years of age, which means that early motor skill development can be affected and can have repercussions for later development. Studies in adults with neurological injuries (e.g., stroke, spinal cord injury) have shown that it is important to start intensive therapy soon after the injury, and it may be true that starting intensive therapy at a young age will be helpful for children with cerebral palsy. Researchers are interested in testing the effectiveness of a special body weight support system for mobility training in young children who have or are at risk for cerebral palsy.
- To study the effectiveness of a mobility training program on the motor skills of young children who have or are at risk for cerebral palsy.
- Children between 12 and 36 months of age who have delayed motor skills and either have been diagnosed with cerebral palsy or show evidence of spasticity or brain damage.
- This study involves two 6-week study phases: a baseline phase and a mobility training program.
- Participants will be screened with a physical examination and medical history.
- During the baseline phase, participants will have mobility testing sessions once every 2 weeks. These tests will measure motor development and ability, including ease and speed of walking.
- Participants' parents/guardians will receive a mobility sensor for the child to wear at home for at least 6 hours (awake time) to measure activity and mobility levels outside of the testing sessions.
- After 6 weeks of baseline testing, participants will have 6 weeks of mobility training for 30 minutes 3 days per week. Training will involve motor tasks with weight support, conducted by a pediatric physical therapist. Activities may include walking, climbing inclines or steps, or squatting to reach toys. All sessions will be videotaped.
- To evaluate the effects of the therapy program, participants will have testing sessions every 2 weeks.
- Parents/guardians will also complete questionnaires to provide feedback on the effectiveness of the therapy program.

FRIDAY, March 8, 2013 (HealthDay News) -- Overweight and obese pregnant women are at increased risk for cesarean delivery, according to a new study.
Researchers examined data from more than 50,000 women in Norway who gave birth to one child. Women with preeclampsia, high blood pressure, diabetes, gestational diabetes and placenta previa were not included in the study.
The findings were published online recently in the journal Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica.
Women who were overweight and obese before pregnancy had an increased risk of C-section. Those who were extremely obese had the strongest risk of C-section and also had an increased risk of vacuum-extraction delivery.
The researchers also found that women who gained 35 pounds or more during pregnancy had a significantly increased risk of forceps, vacuum-extraction and C-section deliveries. This finding was independent of a woman's weight before pregnancy.
In 2008, 1.4 billion adults worldwide were overweight and more than 500 million were obese, according to the World Health Organization. In the United States, about one-third of adults were obese in 2009 and 2010, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
"With such alarming rates of obesity, understanding its impact is an important health issue, particularly for women in childbearing years," study author Dr. Nils-Halvdan Morken, of the University of Bergen, said in a journal news release.
Although the study tied being heavier in pregnancy to a higher risk of C-section, it did not establish a cause-and-effect relationship.
Although other factors may contribute to an increased risk of C-section and vacuum-extraction delivery, doctors need to be aware of the impact that being overweight and obese can have on pregnancy and delivery to properly advise women considering having children, Morken concluded.

Tuskegee Syphilis Study
The Tuskegee Syphilis Study or, to give it its full name, the Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male, was a notorious clinical study that has become a byword for racist and unethical medical experimentation. It ran from 1932 to 1972 and involved nearly 400 impoverished and poorly educated African-American men diagnosed with latent syphilis - meaning that they had the infection but showed no obvious symptoms at that stage. For 40 years they were never told they had syphilis and were never treated for it, even when penicillin became a standard cure in 1947. They were simply told they had 'bad blood'. Among the aims of the study was to see whether syphilis affected black men differently from white men.
For participating in the study, the men received free rides to and from the clinic at Tuskegee University, Alabama. There they were given hot meals and free medical treatment for minor ailments. Any treatments they thought they were also getting for their 'bad blood' were actually placebos, aspirin or mineral supplements. Medical staff allowed nothing to interfere with their work. Even when 250 of the men were drafted for service in the Second World War, strings were pulled to ensure that they remained part of the study instead.
When the study ended in 1972 following a public outcry, only 74 of the original participants were still alive. Twenty-eight men had died of the disease and a further hundred or so of related complications. Forty wives had been infected and 19 children had been born with congenital syphilis. Survivors eventually received financial compensation and in 1997 US President Bill Clinton was moved to declare that 'on behalf of the American people, what the United States government did was shameful'.
