Revised FY05 Budget Adopted; Fund Balance Transfer Approved To Support Electrical Work.
The board adopted a revised FY05 budget with revenues of $32,163,682 and expenditures of $31,446,069. The revised budget reflects increased revenue projections of $1,536,979 and increases in unrestricted expenditures of $200,000 for adjunct salaries and benefits due to increased enrollments. The need for a fund balance transfer of $619,365, included in the original budget, was eliminated.
To cover the cost of emergency repairs to the colleges primary electrical distribution system on the Mays Landing campus, the board agreed to appropriate $525,000 from the FY04 year-end unrestricted fund balance to the unrestricted plant fund. The work will include testing, engineering, removal and replacement of infrastructure equipment and cables.
Long-Range Planning Committee Will Prioritize Capital Projects
Eric Reynolds, chairperson the Long-Range Planning Committee, reported that the group will move forward to prioritize needed capital projects and the facilities area will make a presentation at the May meeting. He noted that would occur despite the tabling of a resolution allocating $1.5 million from the FY04 year-end unrestricted fund balance to the unrestricted plant fund.

Sensor for inDEED
When I use a sensor type which is not defined in the Specimen Authoring Tool, I manually changed the .ind file to input the sensor type, measurement type, and unit. However, this "user-defined" sensor will disappear from the drawing (layout of instrumentation).
Is there any way to fix this issue?

PLT could allow energy companies to provide Internet, voice, and data via the grid, but technological hurdles and fierce competition remain obstacles.
Rumors of mysterious technology trials, talk of clandestine technology alliances, and an overall shroud of secrecy surrounds the mission among U.S. utilities to develop powerline telecommunications.
Powerline telecommunications, or PLT, would allow utilities to provide high-speed Internet, voice, and data services to customers of all classes via transmission and distribution lines. That would allow utility executives to fulfill their dreams of competing head on with telecommunications companies for services and investment dollars. Last, but certainly not least, PLT via the electric grid could help slake America's insatiable thirst for bandwidth.
But there is just one catch: No one has been able to make it work commercially. And because of notorious economic failures in the past, few utilities are even willing to admit they're involved in field testing the technology. Is PLT just a pipe dream?
PLT: History of Developments and Debacles
PLT has been around since the 1920s. Its primary use has been the protection of transmission lines; however, it has also been used for telemetry, remote system control, and voice communication, according to the United Telecom Council.
Commercial applications of PLT range from building control, automation, and monitoring to low-cost business security systems. Residential applications are limited to intercoms and, to a lesser extent, home security and automation. These slow, low-bandwidth applications use analog modulation techniques, according to a report by the UTC.
In the same way that executives today hope PLT will allow the provision of Internet services to rural communities where fiber is too expensive to lay, industry participants in the '20s saw PLT as a means of providing affordable telephone service to rural communities. Experts note, however, that even as breakthroughs have been made during the last decade, those successes in PLT have been followed by much-publicized economic failures.
Take for instance the effort by Nortel and United Utilities in the United Kingdom. Between 1995 and 1997, Dr. Paul Brown of Norweb Communications developed a means of overcoming interference on powerlines that made high-speed data transmission appear possible. On March 25, 1998, Nortel and United Utilities (the parent company of Norweb) formed a company called NOR.WEB DPL to further develop and market Brown's breakthrough, Digital PowerLine (DPL).
Although project trials in Manchester, England, confirmed that the DPL technology worked, problems arose when lampposts near the powerlines acted as antennae, picking up users' downloads and re-broadcasting the data as radio waves. Those radio waves interfered with the broadcasts of the British Broadcasting Corporation, as well as the Civil Aviation Authority and the British Government's electronic communications center.
"The British Parliament, many powerful constituencies, and the press eventually broke [NOR.WEB] up. Nortel made the mistake of taking on Parliament when they should have admitted it [was] an anomaly exhibited as part of the test trials," says one engineer in retrospect.
Last year, the venture closed its doors. At the time, a Nortel spokesperson said that although the company was able to prove the DPL technology, it was

Mark "Fightshark" Miller Asks if He is Famous Featured
- Written by Dave Walsh
- font size decrease font size increase font size
The Glory World Series on May 28th is rapidly approaching as U.S. fighter Mark "Fightshark" Miller prepares for his return fight against Nikolaj Falin. Miller has overcome many hurdles on the way to his comeback, from open heart surgery where he had a cadaver valve placed in his chest to replace his own faulty heart valve to losing his parents and brother in short order. For most people, this kind of crippling pain would be the end of the line, they'd give up on their dreams, but not for Miller.
Miller has worked hard at getting himself healthy, back into fighting shape and surrounding himself with good people to get his comeback in gear. 2011 is the year where things are coming together for Mark, as he finally has his comeback fight for the Glory World Series, Golden Glory's promotional arm. In his latest blog on MMAWeekly, Miller discusses this past weekend where he went to an invite-only dinner as the guest of television personality Anthony Bourdain and his wife.
On Sunday, I drove to Santa Barbara to see Anthony and genius chef Eric Ripert speak. Following their talk, I was invited by Ottavia to attend a small gathering, where I was to meet Anthony and Eric. I was a little excited. The brash honesty, not blunted, but accompanied by a good heart in Anthony was always a thing I thought would jive well with me. I wasn't wrong.
After a few minutes of mingling and nibbling on tasty food, Anthony's eyes caught mine and he gestured vehemently at me while mouthing "get your ass over here!" Anthony Bourdain knew who I was. Color me tickled.
He asked about the comeback, and we chatted honestly about the fight, about Russia, about his fantastic MMA enthusiast wife, all the while Shelby stood, shuffling her feet and looking nervous, as she is a serious fan of Eric Ripert.
After chatting with them for a while, I invited him to the fight (should he find himself in Russia), posed for a photo, which he asked for (again, color me tickled), and shook the big man's hand.
Read more of Mark's blog including a guilt-by-association moment and him reflecting on what it means to be famous. [source]

Gervais Pellissier, deputy CEO of France Telecom (FTE) and its Orange brand of telecommunication services, stopped by the Barron's offices this week. He says he regularly fields queries from investors regarding pressure on the company's dividend, particularly with FTE's dividend yield currently weighing in at a hefty 12.25%. Such double-digit yields have made FTE, along with other European telecom companies, attractive targets for yield-starved investors in the U.S. and elsewhere, but such yields typically signal concerns about share price and dividend sustainability.
"Too attractive," Pellissier says of the level of FTE's dividend. "Most people believe you will not pay it for long. We prefer to have a credible dividend policy."
Pellissier said FTE's goal is to create a more realistic dividend policy that's "sustainable for more than one year" and cited plans to bring the company's dividend down to somewhere between 40 and 45% of operating cash flow.
In July, Spanish telecom company Telefonica (TEF) suspended its dividend in response to a deteriorating outlook.

A recent poll conducted by the Zogby corporation has come under fire for methods used in a poll that suggests that Obama supporters were not as informed as maybe they should have been. As I had commented in another thread the methodology of the poll was deeply flawed and now it seems other people agree.
"..Interpreted the numbers from the survey in a misleading fashion."
The Zogby summary quotes Ziegler claiming that "the poll really proves beyond any doubt the stunning level of malpractice on the part of the media in not educating the Obama portion of the voting populace."
The problem, as Silver points out, is that the survey does no such thing. It proves only that Obama voters surveyed were less likely to attribute to Obama or Biden a half dozen statements that were "at best debatable, yet apparently represented as factual to the respondent" ...
... Describing his biased, leading questions as a legitimate test of knowledge is hugely misleading, at best.
Even John Zogby himself is running from this survey, claiming it was put together while he was on vacation. While paying lip service to its ostensible validity, he adds:

Madden/ESPN NFL
July 05, 2004, 03:29:49 PM »
Two years ago I bought a gamecube. I played Madden, of course, and enjoyed it. Last year I played Madden on gamecube then my brother talked me into buying a X-Box to play online ESPN (I tried the ESPN for gamecube- 2003?- and didn't like it AT ALL... I thought it was horrible and took it back pronto). So, I buy ESPN for X-Box and play my little brother on-line and let him beat me. I feel that last years ESPN was not, graphically, equal to Madden. I think the play selection looks crappy and the menu system is not very intuitive (to this madden player). It really came off as a game trying so hard to be Madden. I play the Dolphins and Ricky Williams would bust out 2, or 3, 70 yard runs a game. That was upsetting, because, while I didn't like the presentation of the game, I thought the gameplay felt smoother than Madden's. Now I'm torn. I am planning on buying NCAA so I will get used to the Madden style controls... I like what Madden is including with the defensive enhancements and I'm starting to think that ESPN is trying to be too gimmicky (the QB evade, AI controlling user input for angles to the runner).
I don't understand why some people are so filled with anger and disgust at Madden. Is it because they have been at the top for so long, and you want to pull for the underdog? Is it because Madden releases a new game every year? (so is ESPN). Is it because John Madden is getting old and goofy? I really don't see where all the anger is coming from. I've played both, and I think I'm a pretty level headed guy, but these are games and after playing a season or two (in either madden or espn) you will learn exploits and take advantage of the AI. What I want to know, is with LIVE for both games, which game will be less prone to exploits? Will I be running Ricky Williams up the middle, or around the corner and racking up 300 yards and 4 TD's a game (espn) or will the running game be nearly inconsequential (Madden)? I think it will be a difficult decision for gamers, like myself, with no real emotion going either way... I will have to give it a week or two and find out if there is any consensus beyond the rabid fanbois drooling over a new game and foaming at the mouth in hatred (jealousy?) for the opposing product.

I think why people enjoyed ESPN moreso than Madden because ESPN brought something new, that Madden hasn't done.
ESPN did an excellent job with the presentation, it was like watching a game on ESPN. But that's not the sole reason why people like ESPN. Online is one key feature that up until now, Madden didn't have.
Espn felt played and looked better than Madden. Everything looked incredible realistic, while Madden wasn't as pretty.
Gameplay, ESPN had some bugs, tackling issues and AI were two components that really brought down the game. Apparently it's fixed this year.
I do agree that Madden had a better play book, and it looks like they will again this year.
Madden has become stale over the years, and when they added the owners mode last year, it really didn't make it any better. Who wants to sell hot dogs. I prefer ESPN's franchise mode, where what you do effects your game.
Madden looks incredibly good this year, especially with it's revamped defense, but ESPN was the king of football last year, and with the $20 price tag, it looks like it will be just as good if not better than last years.

I'm trying to remember what was "new" about ESPN vs. Madden and I can't think of it. Also, I didn't think the graphics for ESPN were that much better than Madden- especially after hearing how much better it looked, then playing it and being underwhelmed. So I add that in with the dissapointing D vs Run and I'm at a loss for this year. Madden has it's problems but why doesn't anyone give Madden the benifit of a year spent fixing the problem? Madden has overhauled (it seems) the defensive play and ESPN has added the AWEFUL suzy kober post game interviews? And we get to see the ESPN sunday night atmosphere? What does that have to do with gameplay? Do they have the fugly cheerleaders again? Those chicks were frighteningly grotesque. I don't know how one goes about crowning ESPN or Madden king of football, I do believe some have a hatred for Madden that is usually saved for brussle sprouts or fruit cake.
The video's I have seen for both Madden and ESPN are all great, when it comes to gameplay. I don't care about Madden's franchise mode, and the ESPN weekly coaching modes at least affect gameplay. I don't care at all for the suzy kolber interviews- I find them as laughable as the scarecrow cheerleaders, but the Berman halftime and game wrap-ups are intriguing and may be worth watching if the info given actually pertains to the game you played. The price point definitely has Madden beat so I believe this year I will go with ESPN and NCAA.

In my opinion, ESPN and NFL2K's before it exceed Madden in both gameplay and presentation by large margins.
Sounds like you have made a good decision for this year

Hmmmm....I remember the year's of the completely brain dead AI of the defense of Madden. Cornerbacks were completely useless. Constant dropping during online games (of the PC version). The uninspired mumblings of Madden during the game. Choppy annimations during ball catches. ESPN brought the first-person mode last year. While I wouldn't want to play every game that way, it definitely gave you the feeling of being under the helmet and gave you a new respect for the players who actually play the game.
Here's one thing that sets apart this year's Madden from this year's ESPN.
ESPN built on the ground up for the Xbox, ported to the PS2.
Madden built on the ground up for the PS2, ported to the Xbox.
ESPN this year simply looks amazing. While Madden isn't bad, most of the complaints that people have
come from Madden fanboys that haven't given the 2K series a fair shot.

I have played Madden (PS2), and ESPN (XBOX), 2004 both very much since release. I really do not play the single player portions anymore. But I play each online often. I am pretty burned out on Madden, but I still love ESPN. I will buy ESPN 2K5 on the day of release. I am on the fence about Madden at the moment. In my opinion the advantages of ESPN are as follows:
- On defense, you can make a difference in ESPN. You can actually play safety and make plays. In fact most of the really good players use the safety on defense to control one side of the field. In Madden you really cannot play anything but DLine or Lb and be effective. The control is not as precise and the game seems to play too fast to effectively read and react on defense. Granted the running game in ESPN is very overpowered, but in Madden you really cannot run outside effectively at all. Most running in Madden consists on plowing into the line and hoping to come out of the other side. In ESPN you can follow pulling lineman, run actual counters, and screen plays actually work.
- In Madden I have witnessed more rediculous interceptions by linebackers playing zone coverage than I can count. The passing game in Madden has gotten to the point where everyone throws deep go routes against zone coverage and then jet packs to the ball. Against man coverage people use motion, and outs constantly. The problem with madden is that the coverage can be read easily at the line before the snap and then adjusted to. In ESPN coverages are disguised better and there are not as many automatic routes. EA has pledged to address many of these issues this year, but we'll see.
- My biggest problem with Madden is the playbooks. In each book there are only about 8-10 offensive plays that actually work well. The rest are garbage. Sweeps, Screens, and many of the pass plays are a waste of time. Therefore most people run the same plays over and over. And since there are only 5 defensive playbooks (and 2 of them are bad), everyone runs the same defenses as well. In ESPN there is a much better variety of plays, and most of the plays in each book are actually usefull depending on what your' opponent is doing. Again EA has promised to address this, but we'll see.

As an equal opportunity football player (I will get NCAA, Madden and ESPN this year as I did last year and years before that) I have a hard time saying that Madden is equal to ESPN in the graphics department though. If you're talking about such things as uniform dirt graphics or relatively smoother animation, then yes I agree Madden is the better one (ESPN's dirt on the uniforms were a joke last year). However when looking at the player, look of the uniform, movements, etc. ESPN is just the better graphical game.
I totally agree that the playcalling in Madden is its real claim to fame and I am not sure why Visual Concepts hasn't tried to duplicate the playcalling style of Madden. It is much easier for the majority of gamers (the game players who only play the Maddens, Tony Hawks, etc.) to pick a play in Madden than in ESPN (in my opinion). ESPN is arguably more geared toward those that have a deeper understanding of football terms, formations, etc. than Madden is.
I think the $20 price can be both a blessing and a hindrance. Those that don't frequent websites that talk about sports games are most likely going to think ESPN is at $20 because it just isn't as good as Madden and should be treated as a bargain basement release. Take 2 and Sega/Visual Concepts MUST get advertising out there on the game or I don't think they're going to see the sales increase they are looking for. This is just my opinion though.
I'm going to buy them all. NCAA will most likely get the majority of my game playing as it has since the series first started. Madden will most likely be the second most played and ESPN will most likely be the third. I will most likely suck at the tournament here because of my playing more NCAA and Madden though...heh. I think ESPN has a lot of promise this year, but Visual Concepts has a track record of promising the world and when you actually see the "new" thing in play it isn't all they had pumped up. Madden often delivers on what they bring to the table, although they certainly tell the mainstream players very little about the game (less promises means less things they need to be accountable for). People that buy Madden know what they're getting and know that all their friends will probably have Madden and not ESPN. With the added benefit of Live play in addition to the PS2 online, I think there will be a lot more Madden players online than ESPN unfortunately.
As for the porting issue, that really doesn't matter to the majority of the sports game buying public. There were a LOT of people that bought Madden on PS2 last year (I bought it on Xbox), there will be a LOT of people buying it on both PS2 and Xbox this year. Once again, the majority of sports gaming buyers do not go onto the hardcore sports forums or websites to look up about a game. They'll buy Madden, they don't care if it's ported from the PS2 or if ESPN was built from the ground up on Xbox. The port issue really falls on deaf ears for me. I buy EA games, I buy them on my Xbox...I don't really care if they're ported from the PS2 because the graphics and sound are sharper and better on the Xbox port usually and EA has high production values and great gameplay. I know there's a bunch of EA hatred around the net, but they're there and they make good/great games whether ported from another system or not (once again, my opinion).
ESPN will be great this year as it was last year and I hope they've made strides in areas I thought they were weak (franchise was the big one). It looks much more geared toward a TV-style presentation than even last year and I can't wait to play it.
BTW...Madden has a QB evade this year as well.

denoginizer: I agree on all of your points. The ability to actually play defense as a safety is what I've always loved about 2K.
Anyway, I should work now.

ESPN gets the majority of my time, but I buy both games each year. The whole storyline central thing in Madden sounds kind of cool, but the same old crap presentation of the game leaves me cold each year with Madden.
ESPN looks like it will be the winner (not in sales
, but in all other ways) again this year.

I will still buy both this year as well (in addition to NCAA). I just can't resist a football game. I am afraid to say that I bought, and still play Fever 2004 in addition to the big 2. I expect ESPN to get most of my playtime though.

ESPN is far better looking and has more interesting offensive plays. In addition, ESPN has very clearly spent time innovating the genre rather than simply progressing in it.
That being said, prior iterations of ESPN had glaring flaws in the AI (inability to stop a slant pattern, inability for the AI to kick a field goal in certain situations, piss poor clock management, etc...) and some problems with the engine (run game working too well, completely offensive minded, etc..). 2k3 and 2k4 were some of the worst made strategic football games of all time (IMHO). Oddly enough, the Sega Dreamcast games were at equal par with their competitors at the time.
I've owned the following football games for the "current" generation (Dreamcast and onward)
NFL2K - Dreamcast
NFL2K1 - Dreamcast
NCAA Football 2002 - PS2
NFL2K3 - XBox - (Sold/Traded when I sold the XBox)
NCAA Football 2003 - PS2 & XBox (Xbox Version Sold/Traded when I sold the XBox)
Madden 2003 - PC
ESPN 2004 - PS2 (Traded back into EBgames for $35 credit towards SSX 3 a few weeks after release)
NCAA Football 2004 - PS2
Madden 2004 - PC
NCAA Football 2005 - XBox
ESPN 2005 - XBox (preordered)
Madden 2005 - PC (preordered)
I fully believe that the absolute best overall game from the above list was NCAA Football 2004, followed closely by Madden 2004. ESPN 2004 was extremely frustrating for me, due to the AI, or lack thereof.
All that being said, I will still buy ESPN this year with the hope that it does finally surpass Madden as the primary pro game I play. It easily looks better, has done the proper innovative steps, and has priced itself at a very attractive pricepoint. However, until I see that the AI can coach its way out of a paper bag, I still have to give the NFL crown to the Madden series. It's simply a better *complete* game of football.

I personally don't think Madden or ESPN have good game management AI. I guess Madden is a litte better at clock management, but I have witnessed some pretty dumb things in Madden too. The player AI in ESPN is vastly superior to Madden though IMHO.

I'd agree with all of that... both are pretty dumb when it comes to coaching AI. I just think Madden is drastically less dumb (ESPN is borderline unplayable for me... the AI just doesn't try to win).
Of course, the second part of your statement is also true... I believe ESPN does have the better player AI, especially with defensive backs. Tweaking Madden through sliders gets similar results though.
All in all... I'd really like a great pro game this year. I'm tired of the NCAA series hogging all my playing time

Father celebrates daughter's life, commitment to charity
The father of Josie Freier, one of two teens killed in a car crash Saturday night is hoping to carry on her legacy by speaking out about his daughter's life and what she would want people to do to remember her.
Freier and her friend, McKenzie Mott, were killed in a single-car crash Saturday night. The driver of the car, Preston Maher, is in the hospital in stable condition. All three were sophomores at University High School, whose student population has been devastated by this tragedy.
"They were great, great kids," Rick Freier, Josie's dad, said.
Freier, an investigator with the Spokane Valley Fire Department, said his daughter loved helping other people. The 15-year-old loved playing soccer, spending time with friends and family, made funny faces and gestures and had a good spirit.
"Understood the difference between right and wrong; I want them to remember a person that was willing to stand up and say that's wrong," Rick Freier said.
Freier said that Josie wouldn't want people to cry; instead she'd want them to come together to give. That's why he pointed people to the Toys For Tots program, to ask to donate in her honor. The donations have flooded in.
"I thought today, I'd tell you this is something Jo Jo would really dig. She'd think this was really cool," Freier said.
Toys For Tots was Josie's favorite charity, something she would spend all of her earned money on.
"I know that she would just want everybody to heal. And she would just want them to continue to laugh and love," Freier said.
The devastating crash Saturday night took Rick's daughter but won't take his memories of her and it won't take the diary of hers he recently found, 70 pages of her thoughts and dreams. Rick's pride in her life -- and death -- is visibly beaming.
"What I learned about her from that notebook, makes me want to scream from the top of the world. Holding that thing and saying, 'This is my kid,'" he said.
You can bring a new toy to any Spokane Valley fire station if you'd like to donate in her honor. Meanwhile, a celebration of Josie Freier's life is scheduled for this Friday at 1 p.m. at the Valley Fourth Memorial Church.

With Oakland out my routing interest is as follows on the AFC side:
1 Houston (Love the story with Johnson and the team finally making the playoffs)
2 Baltimore (Still respect what Baltimore did to Oakland in the Black Hole the year they won)
3 Denver (Tebow is a great story but he is still a Donk and thus I cannot bring myself to cheer for anything having to do with Elway)
4 New England (See above minus the feel goodness of Tebow times 100, I respect NOTHING about that organization and the precieved hand outs the NFL has given them).
Cincinnati would have been #2, Pittsburgh would have been tied with Denver.
Still chuckling a little bit this morning at the mighty Squealers early exit, giving up 30 points to the Tebows. You have to think the loss of their starting safety had to have an impact on the game considering it was big pass plays that was their demise.
With that said, getting a home game because you won an inferior divisional title needs fixed. Seeding in all professional leagues who insist on divisional play should be based on overall record, not the good fortune of sliding into the playoffs with an 8-8 record in a division no one wants to win. Wildcards help to even out some inequities caused by divisional play. Now, go the next step and base seeding on record, not some lame divisional champion status. The Steelers should have been rewarded, not penalized, for having a 12-4 record in the toughest division in the conference.

Its socialism when they take my tax money to pay for anything for those who haven't earned it. Examples, health care to illegals, who pay no taxes, and health care to the indolent who have no job and pay no taxes.

Interesting that you mention auto insurance. The gov't requires auto insurance (in most states, I think). When rates get too high for certain high risk areas, the gov't has the insurors form high risk "pools". Not a car insurance expert, but I think the idea is that all the people that are high risk, are put in a group where all the insurors operating in the state share those high risk drivers. The premiums are still not "cheap", but it gets insurance on those people ... if they want to drive. The coverage provided is "basic".While we are at it let's link our home, life, and car insurance to our employers and then make auto insurance optional too.
I still question whether the gov't will provide things "cheaper" just because they are "non-profit".
M&K, you seem to be in the insurance business. Could you get a quote for the type of insurance the bill proposes ... and then we can take off some % for the "profit" of insurance companies and see what the cost looks like.
Why does the government have to get involved in being the insuror? Why not just have the existing insurors provide a "basic" policy (akin to what is proposed in the bill). Then make it a withholding on paychecks (for those who have no other health insurance), and the money goes directly to the insurance "pool" formed by existing insurors. No "cherry-picking", and nobody pays a tax & gets nothing in return. That young fellow who pays the 2.5% tax at the end of the year will not be helped if he remains uninsured and falls off a ladder painting his house. The virtue in doing it this way is that it would be easier to "undo" and change than it would be if the govt is the insuror.

I don't use the PM feature, so just email me direct at the address shown above.
As far as health care goes I don't think it should be viewed as a commodity, at least in it's payment model.
I can spend myself blind or stay within my budget when it comes to consumer goods. If GM could seduce me into their showroom each year to buy a new car and I got myself into more debt than I could afford, that would be my problem and I wouldn't ask you to bail me out and I sure wouldn't lobby to have GM produce cheaper, no make that less expensive cars so that I could buy a new one each year and not go into debt.
But who decides to get sick? Sure we could all eat better and exercise more or not live where the water supply is contaminated from mine tailings etc., etc. ad nauseum. For the most part however, we get sick just because we're human and even the severity of our illness is sometimes luck or bad luck if you will. Being ill and requiring treatment is not impulse shopping and frankly I don't want to be viewed just as an source income.
From what I can see of the debate raging over healthcare, your country is caring enough to be certain that your vetrans recieve healthcare, your police and fire fighters are provided for into their retirement too, ironicaly I gather that your poor and yes, the lazy too, are taken provided for. So I am mistified when I see the tempers flare and the indignation rise at the spectre of a great nation loosing all its' founding priciples and becoming socialist. You already reap the benefit from shared expenes, see the value to pooling resources to build and maintain a great nation.
From where I sit and from what I can gleem from this very carefully managed national fracas, who is it that this supposed to benefit by this HR bill? Not the illegals, not those on welfare, no it's the guy who lives next door to you who works but maybe his wife has cancer and his insurer won't cover him at a rate he can afford, or he just lost his job because his multi national employer just shipped the CNC machine he worked on the Indonesia, It's the guy who, there by the grace of God go I.

A big man never looks down on others.... instead, he is someone to look up to.
Did I hear Obama say that the NEWS MEDIA was giving too much air time to health care protester and town hall meetings ? Funny he didn't say nothing about the media bias when he was running. need to watch abc,nbc and cbs to see if they will cut back on their coverage
I'm one of those cops who has insurance in my retirement, but I pay for it, its not a freebie, that after 25 yrs of risking my butt for an ungrateful citizenry. Vets get soome free care, but military retirees have to pay for much of theirs.
One of the things I do not want to lose, is quick access to medical care. I don't know how many of my posts you have read, but I am a cancer suvivor. I was diagnosed treated and cured in a bit over 6 months. If the current plan is adopted and I am stuck with it rather than private insurance, I am worried that I am reaching the age (58), where the govt plan will either not waste money on me OR I will be in line far too long to be able to have whatever my problem is fixed.
We have a country replete with millions of illegal aliens, and the Obamacare plan is open to giving them free healthcare, like the slugs on welfare(we have a lot of them too). I grew up learning there ain't no free lunch and I don't want to be paying for the illegals and the indolent to get something that I had to work for. The really disabled are a different kettle of fish.
Those who get military or public safety healthcare had to earn it by the sweat of their brow even if they get gratis now, they have earned it.

|Worldwide Flyfishing Discussion Talk flyfishing with members around the world!

RE:Illegal Stripers At Sushi Bar
Hi Juro -
Actually, it wasn't the greatest - fresh of course, but I think the farm raised fish don't taste as nice! Not one of my favorites (like you I prefer Bonito and Yellowtail tuna), but very fresh at least. I made sashimi once from a 34" last year that someone caught and gave to me while I was just learning to flyfish (he got it on a yellow Rebel). Now THAT tasted great!
My first taste of sushi was in Japan and I haven't been able to stop since - although my thinning wallet will stop it soon!
I was surprised to find very little in the way of sushi on the cape - we had to go from Chatham to Hyannis for the closest decent stuff (quite decent actually).
RE:Illegal Stripers At Sushi Bar
Interesting, I didn't know they farm raised stripers. As versatile as they are I would assume they would fare well in a farm.
So Mike - how was it? Inquiring minds want to know.
Can't wait fer bonito!
I was never a big sushi eater until my thirties when I worked in southern Cal. Everybody does sushi down there, and I started to get a taste for it. My favorite was always the bonito, which is filleted in quarters and just the top half is used. They skin it and slice it into triangles, then sear the edges for just a second on the hibachi and dunk into icewater to stop the cooking process. They then slice it, put it on the rice ball and dribble a tiny splash of a mixture of rice vinegar, soy, soup stock and sliced green onion as they serve it. Awesome.
RE:Illegal Stripers At Sushi Bar
These are most likely farm-raised. There is a steady supply available in the northeast.
Illegal Stripers At Sushi Bar
Today I had sushi locally and ordered some Striped Bass. When the chef went to cut the pieces, he was cutting from a fillet that absolutely came from what might have been from a 12-14".
Is it at all possible these are farm raised?

Spent much time last night trying to figure out why the persion translation for gtk2 wasn't working on Red Hat 7.0, and ended up discovering that this was due to UTF-8 being in lowercase instead of uppercase. This was then causing glibc2.2 to try and convert it from latin1 to UTF-8, when it was already in UTF-8. Madness ensued.
Bidi xterm hacking going well, should be feature-complete by the end of the month.
Er, that's about it really.

all you had to say was WPA sucksthese kind of threads come about because the dolphins havnt had any BONAFIDE, REAL TALENT on offense [and only a small few on defense] in a long, long time.
brandon marshall used his miami stop to refuel for the pro bowl and the chicago bears.
so when your team hasnt produced any real talent, guys start getting hyped. and hyped BIG in some situations. i havn't seen a team get so ga-ga over expendable players in my life. from rob konrad to the recent sean smith debacle, people have gone spit slober over "marginal talent at best" players.
when your stranded on a desert island and you havnt had anything to eat in weeks, that cockroach starts looking like a pork chop!
and you see the comments when discussing one of these "roaches", " yeah, but, last year he had that sweet int in the endzone" the player hadnt had a pic since, and only that one in 3 years, but, he had that pic, he can do it, its everyone around him thats bad! same scenerio with a wr, "yeah, but remember 2 years ago he beat [place decent cb name here] for td, he is a stud!! even though thats the only one said player has had since being drafted 3 years previous!!
these are samples, but some of you may get the point. the fans treat some of these players like there perenial pro bowlers and cant be touched. and its all because we havnt had REAL playmakers, consistant playmakers in many years so everytime one of these hyped types, offense or defense makes a td, or int or sack, even though its a RARE thing for them, people act like they do this every week!!
if ireland doesnt get everyone fired, i believe we have a great coach in philbin. reminds me a LOT of tom landry. and if he stays around, he will have this team humming. and if ireland gets the heave and philbin is retained then they should let philbin have more personel decisions. we will have talent again and people will look back and scratch there heads and say, "why did i ever think [place crappy players name here] was worth a crap?".
bess was a GOOD player, but could be covered one on one, wasnt fast, and couldnt find the endzone with a GPS!!
not what i consider a "play maker". more a complimentary player.

Chapter 7: Sequences, Series, and Mathematical Induction
Sequences and series are really just patterns of numbers, and numerical patterns are everywhere. Patterns are found in the growth of trees, the enrollment in an online group, the movement of a bird, the layout of atoms in a crystal, and a million other places.
Understanding how numerical patterns work is a fundamental step toward predicting future events. Imagine using numbers to predict the best way to throw a baseball, or pick the best pitcher out of a collection of free agents. Number series appear in the way people choose to buy products, or donate money.
In this chapter, you will explore the topics above and will learn to both use formulas designed to help you create series, and create formulas from series in order to predict later members of sequences.

Recursive Formulas
- 7.2.
Explicit Formulas

Chapter Summary
This chapter covers the application and creation of arithmetic and geometric formulas. Students are introduced to Sigma (sum) notation and are taught to calculate the sum of a partial or infinite series.
Later in the chapter, students will learn about induction and inductive proofs. The chapter wraps up with combinations/permutations and factorials and an introduction to the binomial theorem and binomial expansion.

The perfect gift for any art enthusiast:Memberships start at just $85.
NARRATOR: In 1930, O'Keeffe made five paintings of a wild flower called a jack-in-the-pulpit that was growing near her Lake George home.GEORGIA O'KEEFFE: I have a series of paintings of Jack-in-the Pulpits. At Lake George we had a good many Jack-in-the-Pulpits. My first one was almost photographic. It was about 10 × 12. And the next one got up to be 30 × 36. And the next one was 30 × 40. And in that one the jack got black. Well, then I made an abstract thing of all the different parts of the jack and then it got to be forty-eight inches high. And then I thought I ought to be able to simplify it more than that, and then I thought well the thing that makes you interested in that flower, and that you wouldn't look at the flower without, is the jack in the middle of it. So I painted just the jack.NARRATOR: It is typical of O'Keeffe to suggest that the most abstract image might be most meaningful. She once pointed out that in some ways realism isn't very real at all. She did not want to capture the surface appearance of things. Instead, she worked to eliminate some things and emphasize others in order, as she put it, to quote "get at the real meaning of things."This series signals a subtle change in O'Keeffe's approach. Her step-by-step move towards abstraction here is analytical—as if the flower were a problem she were trying to solve. In the earlier abstractions, she often seemed to be exploring an interior, imaginary space. Here she uses abstraction instead to reduce the observable world into its most essential, meaningful forms.
