Noted criminal justice activists to visit Binghamton University
Criminal justice activists and death penalty opponents Jon Scott Rice and David Kaczynski will discuss restorative justice and the use of capital punishment at 7 p.m. Thursday, April 1, in Lecture Hall 10 on the Binghamton University campus. The presentation is free and open to the public.
Rice is a certified social worker with over 18 years of experience serving in youth, adult and family agencies. He currently works with victims of sexual victimization as a primary clinician with the Sexual Assault and Crime Victims Assistance program for Rensselaer County in Troy, NY. He also co-facilitates therapy groups at Forensic Mental Health Associates in Albany, working with those who have committed sexual offenses.
The Kaczynski family came to national attention in April 1996 with the arrest and subsequent conviction of Theodore Kaczynski, the so-called Unabomber. David Kaczynski played a significant role in apprehending his brother and lobbied for almost two years to prevent his execution. In July 2001, David Kaczynski was selected as the executive director of New Yorkers Against the Death Penalty, a statewide organization that unconditionally opposes capital punishment.
The presentation is sponsored by Binghamton University's School of Education and Human Development.

Here's an article from a columnist I respect, that finds some comparisons that are hard to dispute....at least in the Wisconsin situation. And he sees it happening in other states also.
The Demands of the Irresponsible
Anarchy in the Athens of both Greece and the Midwest.
by John Hayward
Writing in the Washington Post, George Will begins a splendid profile of Governor Scott Walker by reminding us that Madison, Wisconsin used to style itself as the Athens of the Midwest. These days, the similarities are indeed pronounced, and not at all flattering.
In the city of Athens, Greece, an interesting new mutation of anarchy has appeared: the I Wont Pay movement. As described by the Associated Press, its a combination of labor union members and Communist Party activists (funny how those flavors of collectivism combine so readily!) who prevent people from paying for municipal transportation, highway tolls, and even fees at state hospitals. They do this by blockading toll booths, sabotaging ticket machines, and encouraging other Greek citizens to stiff the government for public services, any way they can.
Greece lies in a pool of her own blood at the base of socialisms cliff, crushed on the rocks of unsustainable government spending and a moribund economy. The I Wont Pay crowd is upset by the governments new austerity measures, and (justifiably) angered by years of widespread corruption.
Its grimly amusing to watch socialists wail in surprise and fury when they discover their government is corrupt. Of course it is. So was every other socialist and communist government on the planet, throughout the sad history of collectivist thought. Corruption is an inherent feature of collectivism. There are no large, honest governments, and there never will be. When political power becomes one of the most valuable commodities in an economy, it will be bought, sold, and traded.The people have paid already through their taxes, so they should be able to travel for free, an activist told the Associated Press while picketing a metro ticket booth. Thats a fine example of the kind of thinking that turned Greece into a basket case, and music to a communists ears. An atmosphere of anarchy provides excellent acoustics for the siren song of collective ownership.Things may seem desperate now, oppressed workers, but serve and obey the State, and everything will be provided for free! The vastly more efficient principle of expecting the people who actually ride a train to pay for the service is confusing to childlike minds.
Newspaper columnist Dionysis Gousetis made an interesting point in criticizing the idealistic freeloaders: The course from initial lawlessness to final wanton irresponsibility is like a spreading cancer. This is always a danger with civil disobedience. What better word for the crowds of public union employees marching around the Athens of the Midwest than irresponsible?
From teachers using their students as political props and tossing around Hitler references, to doctors writing fraudulent excuses to obtain paid sick leave for union shock troops, to Democrat politicians fleeing the state to shut down a vote, the Wisconsin Left abandoned all responsibility to the people it wishes to subjugate.
Prosperity flourishes in an environment of trust, established through mutual respect for the law. No government or private corporation could afford to provide services for very long, if people felt free to use them without paying. It doesnt take much imagination to see the I Wont Pay movement as exactly the kind of poison that will murder the deformed economy of Greece in its basket.
The notion being pushed against the capitols of Wisconsin, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, and other American states wrestling with powerful and desperate public unions is a related toxin. Call it the You Will All Pay movement. It is the idea that taxpayers have no say whatsoever in how public unions are compensated. Union demands override the outcome of the democratic process, to the point where democratic government itself will be shut down, if it seems likely to produce an outcome the union leadership doesnt like.
The people may be able to vote for new representatives, but those representatives are not allowed to adjust the relationship between government and the unions. The right of public employees to collective bargaining which has only existed for about fifty years - is now even more immutable than the Constitution, which at least has an amendment process.
These public employees obviously dont recognize their Republican governors, or the people who voted for them, as employers they must respect and serve. Its a trait they have in common with the Greek anarchists who are sabotaging ticket booths.
Using public services without paying for them forcing the public to pay for civil servants they dont want and cannot afford two sides of the same coin, really. Both are demands made in the absence of responsibility, made by people who feel no allegiance to those who sustain them. Both involve the selfish use of public resources, while disregarding inconvenient laws and requirements. They are two separate trails that converge on the road to serfdom.
The I Wont Pay movement is a little confused about who will end up as the serfs. The public unions of America suffer from no such confusion.

I wish Terrence would grow a set. He whines more than I don't know what.
Not surprised the divorcees were eliminated. They made way too many mistakes, the biggest of which was not reading the clues properly.
I wish Terrence would grow a set. He whines more than I don't know what.
Not surprised the divorcees were eliminated. They made way too many mistakes, the biggest of which was not reading the clues properly.
I just have to laugh at the frat boys. They've made so many mistakes this season and are still kicking!
They're totally unbelievable! Every week, they're a train wreck with an angel on their shoulders. My wife and I were howling and in tears with Dan's attempt to march with the Soviet soldiers. Pvt. Joe Cocker reporting for duty, sir!
¡Que la fuerza te acompañe!
Dan proved that white men can't jump or march!
It was nice to see Star sweat a little too.
I think the race's winner will come down between Star and her brother or the mom and son team. They've played a good game, not too many mistakes.
They're just smart players. What I like about the show is the uncertainty or just plain bad luck that can occur like Nick and Star had with taxi drivers in Moscow. You may be a smart player, but there's always a wrench ready to be thrown into the works!
¡Que la fuerza te acompañe!
I hate to see Dallas and his mom out. They played a good game. The frat boys are in the finals by luck alone.
The statue park resembled the one used in Goldeneye.
I simply can't believe the luck of the frat boys! :shakeshead:
Second place of all things. As I said before, I like the unknown factors of the game. You never know who will have good luck or just plain dumb luck.
It should be a very interesting final three for the race for the million.
I'm hoping Ken and Geritol Barbie come in last.....again!
¡Que la fuerza te acompañe!
I'm satisfied with the show's end results. Nick and Star ran a good, clean race. They seem like good kids.
I didn't think the frat boys had a chance after they cab mix-up. It would've been interesting to see them blunder through the picture challenge.
Boy, do I really want to go to Oregon and zip-line off the Bridge of the Gods!
AR is returning in February! I can't wait!!

Try this super-quick mix of prepared ingredients, including ramen noodles, frozen cooked chicken breasts, and coleslaw for an easy entrée salad.
This salad can also be made with a two-color slaw mix. It won't be as colorful, but will still taste great.
You can use chow mein noodles in place of the ramen noodles.
Crush the ramen noodles and slice the green onion ahead of time. Place them in separate sealed containers. Just before serving, mix with the remaining salad ingredients. This salad does not hold well once the salad dressing has been added.

This map shows the worldwide distribution of natural catastrophes that occurred between January and June 2011, according to Munich Re, NatCatSERVICE.
An exceptional accumulation of very severe natural catastrophes makes 2011 the highest-ever loss year on record, even after the first half-year. Already, the approx. US$ 265bn in economic losses up to the end of June easily exceeds the total figure for 2005, previously the costliest year to date (US$ 220bn for the year as a whole). Most of the losses were caused by the earthquake in Japan on 11 March.

|Worldwide Flyfishing Discussion Talk flyfishing with members around the world!
|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Nathan Smith
RE:San Francisco fishing ideas
One more thing, there is an article in the Dec/Jan copy of Saltwater Flyfishing that discusses San Fran Striper Fishing.
|Nathan Smith
RE:San Francisco fishing ideas
I was there in May . Amazing fishing there. It is one of my favorite places to trout fish. Here is what I suggest
1. Hat Creek and other locations are going to be slower but you can dry fly them more regularly. The shop mentioned below can set those up to. IE give you advice on where and what to fish and set you up with a guide if you want.
2. GO TOO THE LOWER SACRAMENTO RIVER!!!!!!!!!!!. I was there in May and caught 10-15 fish per day and that really is too early. Now you should be hooking up with 25+ fish per full day. They are all native rainbows, and pretty big. My largest in May was 22" but 25"+ fish are not unusual at all. There is also something about the fish that make them fight like mad. I suppose it is because they are native. The best place around is The Fly shop (theflyshop.com) in Redding. One of my favorite guides there is named Larry. Just give the shop a call and ask for him. really good guy. The rate was 285.00 per fully day which is pretty good for an all day float trip. There are 3 or 4 other guides out of there. They all seem pretty good except one his name is Barry. I don't know if he still works there but I didn't like him all that much honestly. The fishing is mostly nymphing. It is all about caddis there, green and tan. The fly shop has some really cool caddis patterns so you could just wait but if you wanted to get some now then go for birds nests and other emerger patterns. I haven't heard of them doing much in the way of cased caddis patterns. Also bring generic mayfly patterns, like PTs and hare's ears. You will get a few shots at dry fling so some dries are good. All flys must be barbless (barb pushed down is OK). 6wt is ideal a stiff 5 wt. would be OK or a 7wt.
All these areas are in the Redding, north western Calf. area near lake Shasta. The other big location is near Tahoe. This is more spring creek fishing. The fishing isnt as good at all, but you will have the chance to go after golden trout, man are they pretty. My two cents thought is the lower Sac. it is about 3 hours north of San Fran.
3. Shore fishing. Stripers in the SF Bay are sweet. A boat helps a ton, but you can get them from shore. Sinking lines and standard flies work
RE:San Francisco fishing ideas
Hi Doug -
Nate, Eddie, and a few others would be the best qualified to answer. Nate just got back from a trout fishing trip in the area's higher elevations; Eddie has been a consistent source of good info on the fishing.
Here are a few threads on the topic:
Here's one
Another
and another
(there may be more, but those jumped out)
Here is a noaa link with general information:  Bay Area
Hope this helps!
San Francisco fishing ideas
Going to SF for a few days on business and then a couple of days to myself. I have plans to visit a friend in Santa Cruz and a friend in San Fran. Never hurts to bring the 8 weight, 3 piece along. Any suggestions for fishing from shore? I'm sure the ubiquitous clousser will work but I'm open for suggestions. Thanks!

Defense procurement problems won't go away
The Department of Defense (DoD) is taking a major step in stopping the waste of taxpayer dollars. POGO recently learned that DoD sent a legislative proposal to Congress to narrow the definition of a "commercial item" to mean goods or services that are actually sold to the general public in "like quantities." This proposal is a huge improvement over the current definition, a broadly worded definition open to abuse because it includes good or services "of a type" that are "offered" for sale or lease…
…Not surprisingly, the contracting industry is opposing DoD's proposal, claiming that competition will suffer as certain companies won't do business with the federal government because of stricter contracting rules… ~Scott Amey, General Counsel, POGO
Walter Pincus – (Washington Post) – May 2, 2012 – In June 1986, after a year-long investigation, then-President Ronald Reagan's Blue Ribbon Commission on Defense Management — later known as the Packard Commission — filed a final report.
It was established to investigate Pentagon procurement after an enormous increase in defense spending and the discovery of the infamous $435 hammer and $600 toilet seat. The panel was chaired by David Packard, co-founder of Hewlett-Packard Co., and deputy defense secretary in the Nixon administration.

Pope Francis' visit to Washington, D.C. this week is expected to draw
tens of thousands of visitors to the city and create traffic congestion
across the region. Depending on where your office is located, this
could have a significant impact on your commute.
While the Federal
Government will remain open during the pope's visit – Tuesday evening
through Thursday – OPM has strongly encouraged agencies
to allow employees to use any workplace flexibilities available to them,
especially telework. In the D.C. area, 70 percent of Federal employees
are eligible to telework and those who take advantage of that option
this week will be helping to alleviate congestion and ensure public
safety while remaining fully productive, despite the logistical
challenges associated with the pope's visit.
If you do not yet
have a plan in place for telework or using other flexibility options,
talk with your supervisor. Additionally, if you are on an alternative
work schedule, consider whether you can move your day off to give
yourself flexibility during the visit. There are a number of options,
and we encourage supervisors to be as flexible as possible.
the number of commuters into and leaving the city this week will help
alleviate traffic congestion and stress on public transportation. If you
are required to commute to the city during this time, be sure to allow
plenty of extra time. If you are driving, check the street closures
ahead of time, and if you are using public transportation, keep
an eye out for alerts and changes in schedules from the Washington Metro Area Transit Authority.
And, as always, watch local news outlets
for additional changes and alerts. You can get up-to-date information on
the papal visit and the areas of the city that will be affected at PopeFrancisVisit.com.
Brenda Roberts is the Deputy Associate Director for Pay and Leave at the Office of Personnel Management.
Winter officially begins next week. As you may already know, OPM is responsible for deciding when to change the Federal government's operating status in the Washington, D.C. area, and for getting the word out about any changes.
While we are all hoping for an uneventful winter weather season, I want to make sure all Federal employees know what to do when severe weather hits.
I take many factors into consideration when deciding the status of Federal government operations inside the Beltway. The most important is the safety of the Federal workforce and the surrounding community. Our employees are our most important asset. The second concern is continuity of operations. The government never really closes. Emergency response personnel and teleworkers keep our operations going even when employees can't physically get to work.
During a live-streamed event earlier today, Dean Hunter, OPM's Director of Facilities, Security and Contracting, explained the decision-making process, and Brenda Roberts, OPM's Deputy Associate Director of Pay & Leave, gave an overview of the policy that informs those decisions.
Brenda also told us about the change to this year's policy. OPM is revising an outdated leave practice of allowing employees who are already scheduled to be on paid leave when the Federal government closes to take excused absences. With the change, if Federal offices close, employees who are on pre-approved leave remain on leave, rather than switching to an "excused absence" status.
We made this change to take into consideration today's workplace flexibilities. With the increasing use of telework to help us assure continuity of operations, it's now obsolete to provide excused absences for those employees already scheduled to be on leave when an emergency hits.
We had two guests with us at today's webcast. Chris Strong, Warning Coordination Meteorologist for the National Weather Service, helped us understand how the weather service informs OPM about upcoming storms and the difficulties in predicting those weather events.
We were also joined by Caroline Laurin, deputy chief spokesperson for the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA). Because so many Federal employees take public transportation to work, it's crucial for all of us to know the status of trains and buses by consulting with WMATA. The authority relies on our decisions to let them know how many crews, trains, and buses are needed for rush hour commutes during difficult weather. Caroline stressed how important it is that employees comply with OPM's status decisions.
We need to be prepared for weather and unexpected emergencies all year round. It is important that agencies and their employees know their personnel designations, telework policies, and emergency preparedness plans before an event occurs. The past few years have taught us that our dismissal and closure procedures extend beyond winter weather emergencies and can be necessary at any time.
We want to make sure that Federal workers stay safe and that we continue to serve the American people even during times of difficult weather events. And the best way to make sure that happens is for everyone to be informed.
So, please take a few minutes to read the updated Dismissal and Closure Guide on the OPM website. And if you didn't get a chance to tune into the panel discussion, it's available on our YouTube channel.
As we begin this year's Labor Day celebration, I want to take a minute to thank each and every member of our Federal family for your hard work and for the excellent service you provide the American people. One way for us to honor your efforts is to make sure you have the flexibilities you need to help balance your life at work and at home.
From the moment he took office, President Obama has promoted and supported the kind of flexible benefits that will help us recruit, empower and retain a world class Federal workforce. During the historic White House summit on Working Families on June 23, the President signed a memorandum outlining his vision for such a workplace culture.
OPM recently issued guidance to Federal agencies to make sure that we deliver on the President's vision.
Workplace flexibilities go beyond the traditional annual leave, sick leave and family and medical leave. Working with their supervisors, Federal employees have the right to request alternative work schedules, job-sharing, telework, part-time work and leave transfer programs.
Our memorandum reminds agencies that they "must not create arbitrary and unnecessary barriers" that would keep employees from asking to take advantage of workplace flexibilities. And I will be asking agencies to report to me about what best practices they are using to create a culture and workplace environment that supports the use of these programs. I also want agencies to report any barriers that may unnecessarily restrict the use of these flexibilities so we can work together to remove obstacles.
The bottom line is, I don't want Federal employees to worry about retaliation when they seek work schedule flexibilities. And we want to make sure agencies have the procedures and policies in place to create a culture that allows employees to feel comfortable making requests.
We talk a lot here about employee morale and how to best create a workplace where employees feel engaged and appreciated. What better way for us to show our appreciation for the incredible work our 2 million-strong, talented workforce does than to be sensitive to the tug employees often feel between their desire to do their jobs and the need to take care of a family situation or emergency.
What's more, these flexibilities are not just good for employees. I know that if you believe, when a family emergency comes up, that your manager will bend over backwards to accommodate you, you will go the extra mile when a critical situation arises at work.
We are one Federal family. We need to look out for each other, help each other and trust each other to do the best for the American people we serve.
Enjoy your well-deserved Labor Day holiday!
We all think we're old hands when it comes to sitting in downtown D.C. traffic while a visiting dignitary or presidential motorcade needs to pass.
Take it from me. You haven't seen anything yet.
Dozens of motorcades will be going through the Federal city on Tuesday and Wednesday as the President hosts the United States-Africa Leaders Summit. This gathering is expected to be the largest event any U.S. President has ever held with the heads of state and government leaders from Africa.
Despite the closed streets, difficulty parking and traffic, the Federal government will remain open for business. I urge you to work with your supervisors and managers to come up with a plan that lets you get the job done with the least amount of hassle.
The good news is that we are prepared. Just like when a harsh winter storm, summer derecho or any other natural disaster hits, OPM has thought through how best to keep the government operating while keeping our Federal workforce family safe.
And one of our strongest tools is telework. Federal employees are teleworking at an all-time high. In the D.C. area, 70 percent of employees are telework eligible.
So I urge you to think about how best to handle this upcoming traffic situation. Whether you drive to work or take public transportation, you should allow extra time if you are coming into the District. You should also consider taking advantage of such flexibilities as Alternative Work Schedule, taking leave or, as I said, teleworking.
One thing I am sure of: Our world class Federal workforce will – as you always do – find a way to make sure we continue to provide excellent service to the American people.

I was honored to speak at the White House Summit on Working Families. The conference, co-hosted by the Department of Labor and the Center for American Progress, brought together business and labor leaders, economists, policy makers, advocates and everyday citizens to discuss policy solutions that can make a real difference in the lives of working families and ensure America's global competitiveness in the coming decades.
At the conference, President Obama unveiled his memorandum designed to enhance workplace flexibilities and work-life programs. The President also directed OPM to work with agencies to promote the use of such programs, ranging from telework to alternative work schedules to leave programs. OPM will be responsible for assessing agency programs, educating employees and their managers, and promoting a culture that encourages and supports these flexibilities.
I participated in a panel called the Structure of the Workplace. It focused on the importance of having workplace flexibilities and what they mean to employees. Here's just one example: When employees know that their boss will bend over backwards to accommodate them when a family emergency comes up, then they will be willing to go the extra mile when a critical situation arises at work. The result? Happier and more productive employees. That's the culture we need.
With the President's encouragement and through our partnership with the agencies, we will work to remove barriers that exist in fostering that culture. And every Federal employee will be an integral part of making it happen.

|Efficacy and Tolerability of Ginkgo Biloba Extract EGb 761® in Patients With Raynaud´s Phenomenon
- Frequency of attacks
- Duration of attacks
- Severity of attacks
- Par- and dysesthesia of fingers or toes
- Coordination problems
- Interaction with daily activities
- Subjective assessment of colour anormalities of fingers
- Impact of attack trigger factors
|Estimated Enrollment:
|Study Start Date:
|November 2005
|Estimated Study Completion Date:
|April 2006
Despite more than 150 years of research into the pathophysiology of Raynaud´s phenomenon it is still not understood sufficiently. Three mean mechanisms responsible for Raynaud´s phenomenon are discussed and fall into the following three categories:
- neurological malfunction
- pathological blood vessel wall and blood cell interactions
- inflammatory and immunological responses Based on these concepts different classes of drugs have been tested. Although some therapies have shown effects, prolongation of the therapy is often difficult due to side-effects.
Considering a prevalence of 5-10% in the general population, there is still a place and probably a need for the development of new treatment concepts. Ginkgo biloba has shown to have anti-oxidative and anti-platelet activities. In a small placebo controlled trial in patients with the Raynaud´s phenomenon promising results for the Ginkgo biloba extract were shown. EGb 761® is known to be safe and well tolerated. Based on the above considerations, EGb 761® may be an effective treatment for Raynaud´s phenomenon.
Aim: To determine the efficacy and safety of EGb 761® in patients with Raynaud´s phenomenon on the frequency, duration, and severity of vasospastic attacks compared to placebo.

yeeeeppp <3
yeeeeppp <3
Hayley.... I love you and
Hayley.... I love you and Paramore as a whole. I love your pop music and rock music alike regardless of what others say, I mean make money where you can, but honestly... You have completely broken down your voice. It cracks so easily and you're trying to replace the hard notes with these strange voice things you do. Your voice is amazing, but you're running out of breath and crushing your voice with each performance. I'm not saying to stop, I know you can't just stop, but please take it slow. You're hurting your voice really bad and I can tell. If I can tell, so can others. I'm not just saying this because i'm just some hater that's trying to bring you down. I love every song you make and have heard about every song that Paramore has made. I probably annoy my family out of their minds with all the RIOT songs and others that I sing. I love every song from "One of those crazy girls" to "Pressure" and back to "Misery Business". I even considered getting "Misguided Ghost" tatted on my back. Your music has help me overcome so much in my life. My fear of judgement as a black girl listening to rock music, the heartbreaks over a very certain guy, and just pain from everyday life. You help me carry on. You and your amazing air of happiness overwhelm me and you inspire me every day to be like you, but please, if you care about your voice, you'd slow down. I realize you're just a person, not a god and it's difficult all around, for everyone but please please please, I beg you. When all your other fans may turn their backs as soon as you switch to pop, I will stay believing in you,
but please, give me something to believe in...
A fan
Return adress: firstname.lastname@example.com
(Please respond,love you guys!!)
I'll be watching you guys
I'll be watching you guys live one day, until then I can rely on your kick-ass songs playing on phone.
You guys are the greatest
You guys are the greatest band in the history of the earth to me! :) I have loved you guys ever since Misery Business came on the radio for the first time :) I just wanted to say that I love your new album. Don't pay attention to all of the hate, because all of the people that do not like it hate change. All bands have to mature their sound and you guys definitely did :) I am coming to the Monumentour on July 26th I will be sitting in the front row of the sixth section. And I will probably yelling the loudest and singing all of your songs :) See you then!
-Alessandra Tanase
How does one get notified if you guys are going to be on USTREAM or something of that manner? Lets face it the odds of one actually getting to hang out with you guys would be slim. I think that's a cool way to connect with your fans. Thats something I wouldn't want to miss ... I'm not into twitter but if thats the only way I'd just join to follow :)
Seen you guys twice, Hayley

The new Speederbike does look better than the 1st version one from ages ago,not bads sets really
''You fool, my reach is far greater than the Jedi.Only a Sith can wield the force over such a great distance.'' - Darth Sidious
I just got these as well (except the ewok one) weeping like a little .....
Nice additions but a little pricey.
did however go to a k-mart where they were having a 20% sale on all legos. got 4 more battle droid carriers. Bring my lego BD's to
Pilot BD-5
Commander BD-1
Security BD-1
I'm working my way to a battle between the gungans and BD's.
I finally got the ewok set as well as Jedi Defense II. both were the last on the shelf.
I got the Final Duel I and Jedi Defense I sets... These should actually be $3-5... What's with the way over-sized box anyway? If these were cheaper they'd be more like accessory sets rather than actual sets.
"Hokey packaging and ancient gimmicks are no match for good detail on your figure, kid."
"I am a Klingot from Oklahoma in human boy form."
"We came, we saw, we conquered... We, woke up!"
I just saw the Droideka/Qui-Gon set. It looks great! Hopefully Santa is reading this...
I predict that the upcoming Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi film will include the word "and." Multiple times.
These new sets look pretty cool. I need to keep my eye out for these.
"Maybe I can help you. I am Boba Fett. The ship you seek is nearby." -Boba Fett
I found all the sets except for Jedi Defense II. I've looked all over, and talked to guys in my collector's club, and none of them have found it, either. Weird!
"Transported to a surreal landscape, a young girl kills the first woman she meets, then teams up with three complete strangers to kill again." -- A Marin County newspaper TV listing for "The Wizard of Oz"
I picked up JD 2 on Thursday at TRU Monrovia for $6.99, the door is pretty cute, but that's the ONLY feature in this set that hasn't been visited before (unless you count the new security battle droid molded in the new dark red color with paint on the front of the chest and the back of the head as new... obviously I don't ). I could see getting a ton of these if they were half off for various door needs, perhaps also for openings in the Lego Millennium Falcon, which is nearly detail-free inside.
Darth Vader is becoming the Mickey Mouse of Star Wars.
Kylo Ren - came from Space Brooklyn, although he moved to Space Williamsburg before it was trendy.
The use of a lightsaber does not make one a Jedi, it is the ability to not use it.
Saw them here for the first time yesterday at a local retail outlet. The Ewok attack is quite a tempting set but a little pricey. Then there is the twin pod cloud car that I most likely will be getting. But I didn't get any set yet, want the one with Darth Vader in it but its not on the shelves yet.

Gynecomastia facts
- Gynecomastia is enlargement of the glandular tissue of the male breast.
- Gynecomastia may occur during infancy and puberty in normally-developing boys.
- Gynecomastia results from an imbalance in the hormonal environment in the body, with a relative excess of estrogens (female hormones) when compared to androgens (male hormones).
- Gynecomastia can result as a side effect of numerous medications and drugs of abuse.
- Gynecomastia is associated with certain medical conditions including hyperthyroidism, chronic kidney failure, and cirrhosis of the liver.
- Medications and surgical treatments can be used to treat gynecomastia.
What is gynecomastia?
Gynecomastia is enlargement of the gland tissue of the male breast. During infancy, puberty, and in middle-aged to older men, gynecomastia can be common. Gynecomastia must be distinguished from pseudogynecomastia or lipomastia, which refers to the presence of fat deposits in the breast area of obese men. True gynecomastia results from growth of the glandular, or breast tissue, which is present in very small amounts in men. Gynecomastia is the most common reason for medical evaluation of the male breast.
What causes gynecomastia?
Gynecomastia results from an imbalance in hormone levels in which levels of estrogen (female hormones) are increased relative to levels of androgens (male hormones). Gynecomastia that occurs in normally-growing infant and pubertal boys that resolves on its own with time is known as physiologic gynecomastia.
All individuals, whether male or female, possess both female hormones (estrogens) and male hormones (androgens). During puberty, levels of these hormones may fluctuate and rise at different levels, resulting in a temporary state in which estrogen concentration is relatively high. Studies regarding the prevalence of gynecomastia in normal adolescents have yielded widely varying results, with prevalence estimates as low as 4% and as high as 69% of adolescent boys. These differences probably result from variations in what is perceived to be normal and the different ages of boys examined in the studies.
Gynecomastia caused by transient changes in hormone levels with growth usually disappears on its own within six months to two years. Occasionally, gynecomastia that develops in puberty persists beyond two years and is referred to as persistent pubertal gynecomastia.
A number of medical conditions may also result in gynecomastia:
- Malnutrition and re-feeding (recovery from malnutrition) have both been shown to create a hormonal environment that may lead to gynecomastia. Similarly, cirrhosis of the liver alters normal hormone metabolism and may lead to gynecomastia.
- Disorders of the male sex organs (testes) can result in decreased testosterone production and relatively high estrogen levels, leading to gynecomastia. These disorders may be genetic, such as Klinefelter's syndrome, or acquired due to trauma, infection, reduced blood flow, or aging. Testicular cancers may also secrete hormones that cause gynecomastia.
- Other conditions that are associated with an altered hormonal environment in the body and may be associated with gynecomastia are chronic renal failure and hyperthyroidism. Rarely, cancers other than testicular tumors may produce hormones that can cause gynecomastia.
Gynecomastia can also be a side effect of a number of medications. Examples of drugs that can be associated with gynecomastia are listed below:
- spironolactone (Aldactone), a diuretic that has anti-androgenic activity;
- Calcium channel blockers used to treat hypertension (such as nifedipine [Procardia and others]);
- ACE inhibitor drugs for hypertension (captopril [Capoten], enalapril [Vasotec]);
- some antibiotics (for example, isoniazid, ketoconazole [Nizoral, Extina, Xolegel, Kuric], and metronidazole [Flagyl]);
- anti-ulcer drugs (such as ranitidine [Zantac], cimetidine [Tagamet], and omeprazole [Prilosec]);
- anti-androgen or estrogen therapies for prostate cancer;
- methyldopa (Aldomet);
- highly active anti-retroviral therapy (HAART) for HIV disease, which may cause fat redistribution leading to pseudogynecomastia or, in some cases, true gynecomastia;
- digitoxin;
- diazepam (Valium);
- drugs of abuse (for example, alcohol, marijuana, heroin); and
- lavender oil and tea tree oil, when used in skin-care products, have been associated with gynecomastia.

Excuse us, because our jaws just dropped to the floor. Tonight's Costume Institute Gala Benefit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art celebrated the "American Woman" — and, as expected, a swarm of starlets vying for best dressed showed up to mug for the cameras. There was Kate Hudson, sporting tasteful cleavage after a week of covering up her altered chest in ponchos! There was happy couple Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel, squashing all those silly breakup rumors (hahaha Cameron Diaz hahahahah!!!). There was Oprah Winfrey accompanied by Oscar de La Renta. There was Blake Lively looking like a high-class call girl (that's how we like her) and Jessica Szohr hoping to make a style splash and make us forget she possibly cheated on Chuck Bass. It was the night of what seemed like a thousand stars! Feast your eyes on our gallery below.

To commemorate World Refugee Day, the Israel-Palestine NGO Working Group at the United Nations (IPWG) hosted "Remembering Palestinian Refugees", a photo exhibit, film review, and panel discussion highlighting the plight of 7.4 million displaced Palestinians, the largest and longest standing case of forcibly displaced persons. Doug Hostetter, IPWG's Co-chair, who remarked that the purpose of the event was to give "voice and image to those who could not be here to speak to the circumstances for themselves", moderated the panel. Because of their vivid personal and professional accounts on Palestine, great insight was offered by ...

The use of a lightsaber does not make one a Jedi, it is the ability to not use it.
Picked up the Slave 1 UPB today for $69.01 total (including tax). I had a 20% off coupon and a $10 gift card from buying a VBAT-AT on Friday. On top of that, I got a Nikto Guard thrown in. These discounts gave the set true value for me, considering I mainly wanted out of this set was Slave 1.

Nasdaq OMX Group (NDAQ) is having a rough day, with its stock down more than 10% in latest trading.
The move down comes after Nasdaq said it has agreed to buy an electronic Treasurys marketplace from BGC Partners for $750 million in cash plus stock, a deal that could reach as much as $1.2 billion. After the announcement, analysts at Evercore downgraded Nasdaq's stock to equal-weight:
We appreciate the desire to diversify asset classes and the opportunity that this platform/asset class may provide given longer-term structural catalysts. But this deal represents a divergence from the recent strategy of building up non-transactional businesses, with a focus on returning capital to shareholders. We suspect investors will perceive this as the beginning of a longer-term shift to building out the transactional businesses through M&A. While the leverage as a result of this deal will preclude any deals in the near-term, we believe the market perception around further M&A will negatively impact the multiple and the stock is likely to be dead money in the near-term. Longer-term, we believe this deal creates an interesting opportunity for NDAQ, but for now we prefer to sit on the sidelines.
Analysts at Sandler O'Neill kept their Buy rating on Nasdaq, but saw that this deal comes with a cost beyond the purchase price:
NDAQ expects its debt to EBITDA ratio to reach 3.0x+ with the acquisitions of (1) Thomson Reuters [investor relations and PR unit] ($390 million purchase price of mostly debt) and eSpeed (~$750 million in debt). Therefore, NDAQ will focus on paying down debt and bringing its leverage ratio to ~2.5x, which they expect should take ~12 months…we note that Moody's placed NDAQ's investment grade credit rating on review for a potential downgrade given the ~$1 billion in incremental debt the exchange will take on for the TRCS and eSpeed transactions and resulting changes in financial ratios.
As Sandler points out, Nasdaq's stock has done well this year — even after today's move it's up 15% in 2013.

Friends and colleagues have paid tribute to veteran broadcaster Phillip Leishman afterhis death at the age of 61.
Leishman had a brain tumour operated on in March last year and it was hoped he would make a full recovery.
However, the cancer returned, resulting in the broadcaster falling seriously ill again last week.
His family and friends were by his side yesterday as he slipped into a coma and died overnight.
Friends and colleagues have been reminiscing about the kind of man Leishman was.
Sports broadcaster Keith Quinn worked with him on both radio and television.
"You never saw Phillip on television looking anything less than impeccably turned out ... his old clothes were always neat," he told TVNZ's Breakfast.
"He was a very friendly person on-screen and you got that off-screen."
People felt that Phillip was a friend of theirs, Quinn said.
Breakfast present Peter Williams also paid tribute to his friend and colleague on air this morning.
Williams said he got his break in the industry in 1979, filling a sports reporter vacancy left when Leishman went on his OE in 1979. Since then he had worked with him at the Olympic Games, Commonwealth Games and golf tournaments.
"There was always an element of show business about Phil," Williams said on Breakfast.
"He was a fabulous guy, always friendly. What you got on air is what you get off air, which is a sign of a great guy."
Longtime friend and horse racing broadcaster Des Coppins told the Herald over the weekend it was a tough time for everyone, particularly for Leishman's wife Michelle and the couple's three children Harry, India and Lily.
"They're receiving support left, right and centre. They're a very close-knit family. He's in the public eye, but they're a very private family."
Coppins said he had talked to his old mate a few days ago.
Coppins, who was best man at the Leishman's wedding, said he had received dozens of messages from people around the country.
"We work [together] and we were and we are close mates. We'll be there forever. He's almost a brother - in fact he's a brother - that's the way I see Phillip."
New Zealand Golf chief executive Dean Murphy said Leishman was hugely respected as not only a broadcaster but also as a person.
"It is an incredibly sad day for our team today and we have Phillip's wonderful family firmly in our thoughts," Mr Murphy said. "Phillip was not only an important man in the world of golf, he was a great friend who was very close to many of us at New Zealand Golf.
"It is obvious that Phillip's contribution to the game of golf in New Zealand has been immense. His endeavours to promote and support the game of golf have been substantial and we are incredibly indebted to his tireless effort and professionalism in this area.
"Today, however, we are not mindful of the great work he has done for the game of golf, but thinking with fondness about the type of person he was.
"I affectionately called him Sir Phillip Leishman whenever we spoke. While always said with a smile, this title was a genuine reflection of the high esteem in which I held the man. To me he was a man that stood apart from everyone else and a man I was privileged to know. His humility, friendliness, kindness and openness were all qualities that I came to know and love about Phillip. I shall dearly miss his guidance and friendship."
Fellow broadcasters also paid tribute to Leishman on social media.
"RIP Phillip Leishman. You are a gentleman and an inspiration. Saturday mornings in the 70's with Glyn Tucker are a treasured memory," rugby commentator Hamish McKay wrote on Twitter.
Cricket commentator Bryan Waddle wrote "Now Phillip Leishman, 3 of our very best passing in the space of 6 weeks, another sad day, thoughts with his family."
Radio presenter Jeremy Corbett added "Fond memories of him @ 91FM. Wicked sense of humour. Rest peacefully, mate."
And Prime Minister John Key remembered Leishman on Twitter with the words: "Very sad to hear of Phillip Leishman's passing. I always enjoyed our interactions, and my thoughts are with his family."
Leishman was a regular on New Zealand screens since making his first television appearance on a Dunedin regional station in the 1970s.
He went on to cover Olympic and Commonwealth Games between 1976 and 1998.
More recently, he concentrated on golf commentary, but over the years he also covered yachting, tennis, league and rugby.
From 1991 to 1996 he hosted 1250 episodes of TVNZ's first series of quiz show Wheel of Fortune alongside Lana Coc-Kroft.
Leishman also hosted one-off entertainment specials including the Halberg Awards and the last ever televised Miss Zealand Show.
He hosted the New Zealand Cricket Awards from 2008 to 2010.
In 2011 he was made an Officer of the New Zealand Order of Merit for services to broadcasting and the community.

"Now that this day has finally come, I can only hope for those moments that will change the world through my willingness and enthusiasm to do what I believe is right and what makes a great leader. Leadership is not about the skills and knowledge we acquired. It is about how we utilize those skills and knowledge to change people's mindset"
Having survived extraordinary danger, chaos and heartbreaking setbacks in the Liberian civil war, I have a strong sense of purpose and passion for teaching and educational leadership. Despite these challenges, I graduated with a B.A in English/ Elementary Education (Cum Laude), and a Master's Degree in Educational Leadership from Rhode Island College.
Two years ago, if anyone had asked me why I wanted to pursue a Master's degree in Educational Leadership, I would probably have said "to get a better job and earn a decent salary." But now as I reflect upon my learning experiences in the LEAD Program, I realize that my goals are to continue to be a change agent: in short, I want to help people overcome their own challenges. The LEAD program has broadened my understanding about leadership and exposed me to many new and exciting possibilities, as well as new ways of teaching and learning. It allowed me to work on challenging projects. The class discussions, both with the whole group and in smaller groups, were one of the best aspects of the LEAD Program, because it was always interesting to see how each student's view aligned with what we were taught.
The LEAD faculty members are devoted to bringing out the best in each student. They knew the students not only by names, but by what the students believed about leadership. They provided opportunities for the students to make critical decisions, analyze strategic plans, and develop solutions that served in the best interest of everyone in the cohort. Because of the faculty's support of the students, a lifetime bond and mutual respect were formed between them and the students. LEAD faculty members worked hardest to develop talented, creative and outstanding leaders. For example, after a reading, they challenged and guided the students to write reflections, analyze problems for a better result that aligned with the program's standards and then relate that result to their personal lives, a teaching strategy used to develop the students' leadership capabilities to the fullest. As a graduate from the LEAD Program, I hope to continue my work in higher education and to construct a boarding school for disadvantaged youths in Liberia. I want to utilize the skills and knowledge I acquired from the LEAD Program to help young people discover their potential and to be positive contributors to their communities.

- Description
Cologne Cathedral (German: Kölner Dom, officially Hohe Domkirche St. Peter und Maria, English: High Cathedral of Sts. Peter and Mary) is a Roman Catholic church in Cologne, Germany. It is the seat of the Archbishop of Cologne and the administration of the Archdiocese of Cologne. It is a renowned monument of German Catholicism and Gothic architecture and is a World Heritage Site. It is Germany's most visited landmark, attracting an average of 20,000 people a day.
Cologne Cathedral was commenced in 1248 and left unfinished in 1473. Work recommenced in the 19th century and was completed, to the original plan, in 1880. It is 144.5 metres (474 ft) long, 86.5 m (284 ft) wide and its towers are approximately 157 m (515 ft) tall. The cathedral is the largest Gothic church in Northern Europe and has the second-tallest spires and largest façade of any church in the world. The choir has the largest height to width ratio, 3.6:1, of any medieval church.
Cologne's medieval builders had planned a grand structure to house the reliquary of the Three Kings and fit its role as a place of worship for the Holy Roman Emperor. Despite having been left incomplete during the medieval period, Cologne Cathedral eventually became unified as "a masterpiece of exceptional intrinsic value" and "a powerful testimony to the strength and persistence of Christian belief in medieval and modern Europe".

You know Nicki Minaj's Pepsi commercial? It sort of happened to me this weekend.
In the commercial, a couple drinks Pepsi and goes on adventures, like hitting a fashion cat walk. At the end, they're at a Nicki Minaj show, and time stops during her performance of her hit "Moment 4 Life." The couple runs up to the stage and time starts again.
So what did I do this weekend? I ran up to the stage while Minaj sang "Moment 4 Life." Almost just like the commercial, minus the Pepsi and the freeze frame.
I went to see Nicki Minaj last week in Birmingham with a big group of friends. Minaj's new album, "Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded," is easily my favorite album of 2012, so I've been super excited about this "Pink Friday" tour for a long time.
2 Chainz opened the show and was terrific, performing hits from his mixtapes and a few songs from his upcoming album, "Based on a T.R.U. Story."
Minaj started her show in a dungeon-like setting with her song "Roman's Revenge," one of my favorite songs. She breezed through so many songs I love, like "Did It On 'Em," "Beez in the Trap" and "I Am Your Leader."
Let me pause here to say we didn't exactly have the best seats. Then again, the Boutwell Auditorium is pretty small (roughly 6,000 seats compared to the BancorpSouth Arena's 10,000-ish seats) so really there isn't a bad seat in the house. But we were in the nosiest nosebleed seats, and what breaks my heart is the auditorium was only maybe half-full. What's up with that, B'ham?
Anyway, as Minaj was ending "Right By My Side" and starting "Moment 4 Life," an auditorium official came through and handed us all tickets, saying all of us up there were now given upgraded seats. We could go anywhere in the building. I grabbed my best friend Spencer and yelled, "DOWNSTAIRS!"
I'm sure the auditorium has an elevator but we never found it, so we climbed down SO MANY flights of stairs, and all the while Spencer is squealing in excitement and I can hear Minaj singing "Moment 4 Life." It was kind of an incredible moment.
Just as she wrapped up the song, we made it to the floor and ran up as far as we could – basically about a third of the floor back. Not bad, considering where we were! And her fans are hands down the nicest I've ever encountered. There we were, late-comers to the floor, but everyone down there let us stand and dance by them. They were too busy having fun, just like we were.
The rest of her set included more of my favorite songs, like "Pound the Alarm," "Starships," "Come on a Cone" and "Super Bass." Minaj danced, had several costume changes – she basically had a blast on stage.
She also talked to her fans – mostly female – telling them the most important thing they could do is get an education, and they should never rely on a partner for money.
One of my favorite moments was when Minaj performed her verse from Kanye West's "Monster" – probably my favorite Minaj moment ever – completely a capella. It was powerful. When she got to the line, "50k for a verse/no album out," she stopped. "Let me try that again," she said, and changed the line to "100k for a verse/two albums out," and the crowd went wild.
Minaj plowed through more than 20 songs in a little over an hour, and sometimes I almost wished she slowed down a minute so we could really take in everything we were experiencing. Still, I had so much fun. She brought one of my favorite albums to life, and I got to have a "Moment 4 Life" with my best friends. To quote Ms. Minaj herself, "No, I'm not lucky/I'm blessed, yes."

Reference desk extends summer hours through instant messaging
Posted June 21, 2006; 11:40 a.m.
The reference desk at Firestone Library is extending its summer hours through instant messaging.
Building on a successful online program offered this spring, the desk has started a Summer Chat Reference Service that runs from 4:30 to 8 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays. While the library is open until 11 p.m. those days, the reference desk closes at 4:30 p.m.
Princeton students, faculty and staff can now ask reference questions during the evening hours by using their AOL, Yahoo, MSN or ICQ accounts. Patrons should simply add "LIBCHATPUL" to their buddy lists for AOL, Yahoo and MSN or add 217761456 for ICQ.
