Derby goalkeeper Frank Fielding could make his return from a groin injury this week.
Fielding has missed the last seven matches since suffering the injury in the league draw at Middlesbrough at the start of October.
He could feature in the Rams' Under-21 fixture against Nottingham Forest on Tuesday.
"If Frank comes through training okay then he will start that game," said manager Nigel Clough, who also hopes forward Jamie Ward will resume training this week.
Ward has been out since suffering a hamstring injury in the npower Championship victory over Forest at the City Ground on September 30.
Clough added: "We are looking for Jamie to train maybe the middle of this week, with a view to playing in the Under-21 game against Barnsley next Monday."

The antinuclear antibody panel is a blood test that looks at antinuclear antibodies (ANA).
Alternative Names
ANA; ANA panel
How the test is performed
Blood is drawn from a vein, usually from the inside of the elbow or the back of the hand. The site is cleaned with germ-killing medicine (antiseptic). The health care provider wraps an elastic band around the upper arm to apply pressure to the area and make the vein swell with blood.
Next, the health care provider gently inserts a needle into the vein. The blood collects into an airtight vial or tube attached to the needle. The elastic band is removed from your arm.
Once the blood has been collected, the needle is removed, and the puncture site is covered to stop any bleeding.
In infants or young children, a sharp tool called a lancet may be used to puncture the skin and make it bleed. The blood collects into a small glass tube called a pipette, or onto a slide or test strip. A bandage may be placed over the area if there is any bleeding.
How to prepare for the test
No special preparation is needed. However, certain drugs, including birth control pills, procainamind, and thiazide diurectics, affect the accuracy of this test. Make sure your doctor knows about all the medicines you take.
How the test will feel
When the needle is inserted to draw blood, some people feel moderate pain, while others feel only a prick or stinging sensation. Afterward, there may be some throbbing.
Why the test is performed
Your doctor may order this test if you have signs of an autoimmune disorder, particularly
Normal Values
Usually, there is no detectable ANA in the blood (negative test). Sometimes, however, people who do not have any specific disease may have low levels of ANA for no obvious reason.
ANA is reported as a "titer." Low titers are in the range of 1:40 to 1:60. A positive ANA is much more significant if you also have antibodies against the double-stranded form of DNA.
ANA does not confirm a diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosis (SLE). However, a lack of ANA makes that diagnosis much less likely.
Although the ANA is most often identified with SLE, a positive ANA can also be a sign of other autoimmune diseases.
Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
The examples above show the common measurements for results for these tests. Some laboratories use different measurements or may test different specimens.
What abnormal results mean
The presence of ANA in the blood may be due to:
- Chronic
liver disease Collagen vascular disease Drug-induced lupus erythematosus Myositis(inflammatory muscle disease) Rheumatoid arthritis Sjogren syndrome
- Systemic lupus erythematosus
Increased ANA levels may sometimes be seen in people with:
Systemic sclerosis (scleroderma)
- Thyroid disease
What the risks are
Veins and arteries vary in size from one patient to another and from one side of the body to the other. Obtaining blood from some people may be more difficult than from others.
Other risks associated with having blood drawn are slight, but may include:
- Excessive bleeding
- Fainting or feeling light-headed
- Hematoma (blood accumulating under the skin)
- Infection (a slight risk any time the skin is broken)
Special considerations
The ANA can be positive in relatives of people with SLE who do not have SLE themselves.
A positive ANA always needs further evaluation, including a careful history, physical exam, and blood tests for other antibodies, especially anti-double-strand DNA antibodies.
If the only finding is a low titer of ANA and everything else is negative, there is only a 5% chance of that patient developing systemic lupus erythematosis at some time later in life.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
A wanted Palestinian terrorist was killed during a shootout with Israeli soldiers in the northern Samaria city of Jenin on Tuesday.
According to the Israeli army, the soldiers were sent to arrest the suspect when they were assaulted with grenades and other incendiary devices. The soldiers opened fire on their attackers, and wounded the wanted man as he attempted to escape the scene.
The terrorist later died of his injuries while being treated at an Israeli hospital.
In the Palestinian media, the incident was reported as a major Israeli incursion during which 20 armored vehicles entered Jenin, mass amounts of tear gas were fired and a number of local houses were forcibly entered.
Jenin is an autonomous Palestinian city in the north of the so-called "West Bank." On the outskirts of town is situated a large "refugee camp," which was established in 1953 for Palestinians who lost their homes as a result of the 1948 Arab war against the fledgling Jewish state. The camp is now inhabited by the descendants of those refugees, most of whom are unemployed youth. Jenin is considered a stronghold of the radical Al Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade, the "armed wing" of Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas' ruling Fatah faction.

When Porny talks about her mouth...
This sh-t just writes itself.
"My lips just slide all over the place....I can't catch up with my mouth. I need a little coating...."
And you wonder why I call her Porny. It just comes naturally. And this is also why I used to say she had a cocksucker's mouth. Because, well, she can't f-cking help it.
Jessica Simpson will be on Ellen Degeneres today. Talking about her teeth. Apparently she doesn't brush them every day. She does however floss and rinse with Listerine. Listerine, as far as I know, in this case, is not code for something else although I don't blame you for going there. Because, well, she can't f-cking help it.
Porny confirmed to Ellen that she's single but that she's also "mingling". And this is when she described herself like some Walk of Shame Girl, creeping around in alleys at all hours of the night after unleashing her sexual napalm all over some douchey f-ck.
"I mingle around very privately. I have ways in and out of my house and certain places that I go that are private just so I can have a normal life. I'm still out there and bring normal."
See how Porny can make anything sound dirty? She could probably make quantum physics sound dirty. Because, well, she can't f-cking help it.
It's genetic stupidity, as I've already noted. It's genetic stupidity combined with the fact that they never taught her how to properly communicate. And it's being raised by a perv who probably objectified her her entire life. This is why her value is wrapped up in her chest. All of it contained in those massive breasts. Don't hate on her because she sounds so dumb. She IS dumb. She sounds as she is. Which is why she doesn't deserve your attack. Because, well, she can't f-cking help it.
Pity her. Help me help her.

However, McMaster will not be the last to trumpet the values of land power. Dwindling defense budgets have certainly ended the Pentagon's traditional approach to funding allocation, which favors awarding relatively equal shares of the defense budget to the respective services, regardless of American grand strategy. Representatives Randy Forbes (R-VA) and Rick Larsen (D-WA) have already argued this "fair-share" approach should be replaced by budgets designed to meet strategic needs. 5 While an equal distribution is certainly fair, drastic cuts to funding require drastic strategic choices. If cuts are a must, simple strategic logic demands that a maritime power like the United States should allocate more money to the Sea Services.
Regrettably, Americans do not understand sea power. As the late naval historian Clark Reynolds lamented:
The special language of seafarers often deters "landlubbers" from understanding the particular ways in which the sea has been utilized by nations throughout history. Ships are simply ships—men-of-war or merchantmen—to most statesmen, generals, historians and even the lay public, who consequently lack an appreciation of the subtle application of . . . "sea power" to national goals. 6
Therefore, if American naval supremacy is to survive, navalists must explain the merits of sea power and advocate publicly for increased naval funding. History demonstrates that an effective lobby for American sea power will be critical to this task.
The Admirals' Revolt Revisited
A budget-share battle among the services would not be new. While modern jointness culture has created a sense of calm among the services, this was not always the case. After World War II, Presidents Harry Truman and Dwight Eisenhower placed strict caps on their defense budgets that forced the Pentagon to make the same difficult choices regarding which form of military power to fund faced by the current leadership.
The most heated debates developed between the Navy, which enjoyed a larger budget-share before the war, and the Air Force, which dominated postwar budgets. The services argued over everything—unification, postwar defense strategy, weapon systems, and, especially, service roles and missions—to claim a larger share of the limited defense funds. When Secretary of Defense Louis Johnson, an Air Force sympathizer, canceled construction of the flush-deck carrier United States , the Navy, fearing for its existence, forced a set of congressional hearings to defend its views. Dubbed the "Revolt of the Admirals," the hearings did not improve matters. The Navy failed to win any public support, Johnson fired Chief of Naval Operations Admiral Louis E. Denfeld, and strategic air power remained a budgetary priority. By Fiscal Year 1954, the Air Force received nearly half of Eisenhower's defense appropriations. 7 The Air Force secured budgetary supremacy during the postwar years for a variety of reasons, but a strong air-power lobby and public-relations strategy enabled the airmen to control debate over postwar strategy and win valuable public support at the Navy's expense, which aided their effort significantly. 8
In late 1944 a U.S. Army Air Forces study commissioned for General Henry "Hap" Arnold concluded "the American public has a historic tendency—to build up idols, and to knock them down. The AAF has been and is the idol of the American public. The public's acceptance and support must be carefully planned and jealously guarded." 9 The study was typical of a service that viewed PR as a paramount concern.
Bitter feuds between the air and sea services over the proper role of aviation had been ongoing since World War I. Hoping to gain separate-service autonomy, air officers turned to PR early in their careers to highlight the value of air power. Led by William "Billy" Mitchell, airmen participated in PR activities at every level. They entered air races, published frequently, made speeches, turned training activities into publicity stunts, participated in Hollywood films, and even endorsed political candidates sympathetic to their cause. These activities convinced the aviators that an effective PR campaign could achieve results. Consequently, Arnold, Carl Spaatz, and Hoyt Vandenberg, all pivotal figures to the postwar air-power lobby, used these techniques throughout their careers. 10
Air Advocates Ascendant
The advocacy culture also benefited from several civilian voices, most notably Alexander de Seversky and William Bradford Huie. De Seversky developed his views alongside Mitchell but became famous during World War II when he starred in Walt Disney's Victory Through Air Power , an odd propaganda film based on de Seversky's book of the same name that merged his air-power theories with Disney cartoons. Huie, a journalist and editor, served in the Navy during the war but later launched a smear campaign against his former service. Beginning with The Case Against the Admirals , Huie published a steady stream of bitter anti-Navy diatribes that painted the "the admirals" as self-absorbed malcontents who cared more about their own interests than the lives of their sailors. Like Mitchell before them, Huie and de Severski argued that air power rendered navies redundant, and the Fleet should either be reduced to a ferry service for the Army or eliminated altogether. 11
After the war, retired airmen joined the civilians. These former officers proved especially effective because their advocacy carried additional credibility, coming from professional voices that had just won a world war; being retired, these officers could sharpen their tone since their statements no longer required governmental approval. In 1948 Jimmy Doolittle, made famous by his raid on Tokyo, helped found the Air Force Association, an independent civilian organization established to counter Navy League advocacy. Doolittle helped set up chapters around the country and eventually became the organization's national president. He used this platform to frequently advocate for air power in the media. By 1949 Spaatz had retired and accepted a position with Newsweek , and articles from Arnold also appeared frequently in newsmagazines. 12
Effective leadership from Air Force Secretary Stuart Symington ensured his advocates got their say. Symington worked closely with Stephen F. Leo, the director of Air Force PR, to gain powerful allies in the national media, which they employed to disseminate Air Force views. As a result, media outlets developed strong air-power sympathies. Articles advocating it filled Reader's Digest , the most widely circulated magazine in the country, and its editors often refused to grant the Navy space to counter Air Force claims. For the unconverted, the Symington-Leo team perfected the art of the press release. Air Force officials were careful to issue clear statements of operational achievements that could be backed up with documented facts so their positions could not be assailed. Symington and Leo aggressively protested any newspaper or magazine article that reflected negatively on the Air Force, for even the most mundane reasons. However, the duo looked the other way if unofficial sources inflated Air Force capabilities or attacked the other services. By 1948, Secretary of the Navy John Sullivan privately complained about unequal treatment. 13
Navy Public Relations . . . or Lack Thereof
However, unequal treatment for sea power did not result from Symington's PR strategy alone. The Navy's approach to PR differed dramatically from the airmen's methods and suffered from a culture of disengagement and anti-intellectualism. Naval officers preferred to let the Navy's combat record speak for itself and avoided publicity, even to defend their service's positions. The generation of naval officers led by Stephen B. Luce, which included Alfred Thayer Mahan, proved an exception to this rule. These officers openly lobbied and published frequently; Mahan himself produced an astounding volume of work consisting of 20 books and 137 journal articles, many of the latter appearing in newsmagazines, where he tailored his language for public consumption. However, Mahan's superiors initially frowned on his advocacy. In 1893, Admiral F. M. Ramsey expressed his thoughts in Mahan's fitness report: "It is not the business of naval officers to write books." 14
Until the conclusion of World War II, the Navy got away with its apolitical views because the public never questioned the need to maintain a navy. However, following the destruction of German and Japanese naval power, political support eroded because Americans found it difficult to rationalize spending large sums of money on ships to combat the Soviet Union, a continental power. While navalists understood how sea power contributed to American goals, the average citizen did not. To gain public sympathy, the Navy needed to educate the public about the benefits of naval power. However, when it came time to take the public to sea-power school, navalists failed to hear the bell. By the summer of 1949, one Navy officer complained the Navy's approach to PR placed it "on a par with garbage collecting. The output as a whole is dull, uninspired, tardy. The element of zeal, esprit de corps, all the devotion to a cause that the Air Force exhibits, is lacking." 15
Poor leadership contributed to the problem. Following World War II, Secretary of the Navy James Forrestal worked diligently to advocate for sea power. He granted interviews, published often, and testified before Congress in forceful tone. 16 Forrestal encouraged naval officers to end their apolitical culture and created several PR groups to coordinate Navy testimony and advise on political strategy. As a result, the Navy won several concessions during the debates on unification. However, Forrestal could not convince his uniformed counterparts to join the public lobby. Naval officers worked on PR issues but confined their efforts to the Navy Department and let Forrestal act as the Navy's public face. 17 This strategy worked well during Forrestal's tenure in the office.
However, when Truman promoted Forrestal to Secretary of Defense, his replacement, John Sullivan, and the new Chief of Naval Operations, Admiral Louis Denfeld, curtailed their public advocacy. Denfeld also allowed his Vice-Chief, Admiral Arthur Radford, to speak for the Navy on strategic and unification questions, which proved disastrous. 18 Radford was a forceful advocate but a poor naval strategist. He assailed the Air Force and openly criticized its strategic concepts but devoted little time to explaining why the United States needed a large navy or how seapower contributed to containment. Arleigh Burke concluded this occurred because "people in the navy did not know very much about strategy. . . . That's why we did not have any organization to lay out the Navy's case or defend ourselves. . . . We suffered from a lack of knowledge within the Navy of what a navy was all about . . . ." 19
The Navy's culture of disengagement, however, also discouraged a public discourse. In 1946, Admiral Forrest Sherman developed a postwar naval strategy that emphasized conventional offensive carrier operations against the Soviet Navy's submarine and naval-aviation bases. Sherman's "attack at the source" strategy provided a rational and clear argument for maintaining a large fleet of aircraft carriers. 20 However, the Navy did not release an unclassified version of "attack at the source," which prevented officers from explaining why the United States needed a powerful fleet of carriers publicly and shielded the strategy from academic discussion. As a result, a postwar Mahan failed to emerge to counter voices like de Servesky and Huie, who openly debated air-power concepts. The U.S. Naval Institute Proceedings and the Navy League's Sea Power magazine provided friendly forums for sea-power arguments, but none was made. In 1949, the year the Revolt of the Admirals occurred, not a single article on the utility of the USS United States or naval strategy appeared in Proceedings .
The lack of civilian advocacy also created a legal dilemma for the Navy. In a healthy civil-military relationship, the respective services advise on policy decisions and debate the issues, but when the civilian leadership reaches a decision, military professionals carry out policy and do not question civilian reasoning. Civilian control forced the Navy into a precarious situation by 1949, because Truman had replaced Forrestal and Navy Secretary John Sullivan, both sea-power-minded civilians, with air-power sympathizers, which deprived the Navy of any sympathetic voices in the administration. This forced active officers to openly testify against administration policy to defend sea power, which eroded civilian control, contributed to the Navy's culture of disengagement, and destroyed the careers of many of the officers who testified during the Revolt of the Admirals.
Forming an Effective Sea-Power Lobby
Today, the strategic environment is far different than it was in 1949. However, the early Cold War debates illustrate the valuable role public advocacy can play in the policy-making process. If sea power is to reassert itself as the central tool of American foreign policy, navalists must not repeat their postwar mistakes regarding PR. To avoid theses pitfalls, several interrelated goals must be met.
First, the Navy cannot succumb to disengagement. It must create the intellectual spark that rekindles the sea-power debate by continuing to share its strategic and operational concepts with the public. Open discussion concerning the eventual update to the Cooperative Strategy for 21st Century Seapower and the ongoing debates regarding Air-Sea Battle (ASB) provide valuable avenues to inform the public about the merits of sea power. ASB has already generated significant literature and debate. In fact, it has received so much criticism and uninformed commentary, some navalists argue releasing the concept was a mistake. 21 However, this argument misses a very critical point. Having the debate is much more important than the accuracy of the commentary associated with these discussions, because it gets Americans talking about sea power and teaches them about its benefits. Navalists must answer criticism and uninformed comments with facts and analysis. In 1949 Symington cared little about the accuracy of outlandish claims made by air-power advocates, but his PR team did not allow criticism to go unanswered.
Second, the Secretary of the Navy must become a combative advocate for sea power. The Air Force's drive for budgetary supremacy in the late 1940s, the Navy's unification victories, and, to fast-forward, its successful Maritime Strategy of the 1980s were aided by politically aggressive leadership from civilian secretaries who saw themselves as forceful advocates, rather than passive managers. Even the birth of American naval power at the turn of the 20th century, which many attribute solely to Mahan's advocacy, actually resulted from a collaborative effort between Mahan and Secretaries of the Navy Benjamin Franklin Tracy and Hilary A. Herbert, who used Mahan's writings to lobby Congress for battleship funds. 22 The Secretary of the Navy should take these lessons to heart. The Obama administration's Pacific "pivot" presents the Secretary with a potent opportunity to argue for expanded naval funding in support of a policy already on the books.
Finally, civilian navalists must lead the way. Active service personnel simply cannot advocate as aggressively as their nongovernmental counterparts. Healthy civil-military relations demand deference and open support for administration policy. Public criticism, even when cleared through the appropriate channels, can endanger careers. Therefore, civilian writers and retired officers must shoulder the load. Navalists need to champion the advocacy traditions of Mahan and the air-power advocates, publishing frequently but in media other than Navy-centric journals to avoid preaching to the converted. However, these advocates must stay on message. Navalists cannot adopt the advocacy traditions of Radford, putting forth arguments that attacked the Air Force but were divorced from America's maritime narrative. They must remember that air power has always been controversial; sea power is simply misunderstood. Attacking the former to advocate for the latter does not explain why the United States should maintain its naval supremacy—it turns sea-power advocacy into an air-power debate.
Sea power is the foundation of American power. As President John F. Kennedy made clear to the American people following the Cuban Missile Crisis: "Events of October 1962 indicated, as they had all through history, that control of the sea means security. Control of the seas can mean peace. Control of the seas can mean victory. The United States must control the seas if it is to protect your security. . . ." 23 To ensure the United States continues to control the seas, it is time to pick up a pen.

CODY, Wyo.—Authorities have recovered the bodies of a businessman and two of "Buffalo Bill" Cody's great-grandsons from the wreckage of a small plane that crashed into a central Florida marsh.
The Federal Aviation Administration lost contact with the Cessna 310 on Thursday afternoon, and the crash site was discovered Friday about 20 miles west of Vero Beach, Fla.
Authorities haven't released the names of the victims, but a family member identified them as Rob Krieger—a Florida businessman—and brothers Kit and Barry Cody.
Kit Cody's son-in-law, Bryan Edwards, tells The Cody Enterprise the three had been "island hopping" in the Bahamas before the crash.
Buffalo Bill, whose real name was William F. Cody, was best known for his Wild West show, which ran from the 1880s to the early 1900s.

The following statement is from the California Attorney General's Office.
Click here to read the related story.
SAN BERNARDINO � Attorney General Edmund G. Brown Jr. and San Bernardino County District Attorney Michael A. Ramos on Wednesday announced the filing of criminal charges against former Chairman of the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors William Postmus and James Erwin, former Chief of Staff to Supervisor Neil Derry, on "conspiracy, corruption and bribery" charges related to a $102 million land-development settlement paid by San Bernardino County.
The complaint (click here to view the complete complaint) alleges that Erwin took $100,000 for inducing the Board of Supervisors to pay $102 million of taxpayer's money to Colonies, a development company, in a fraudulent settlement and that Postmus took a $100,000 bribe for his vote to approve it. If convicted of all charges, Erwin faces a maximum of twelve years in state prison, and Postmus faces a maximum of eight years in state prison.
"These individuals engaged in conspiracy, corruption and bribery that cost San Bernardino taxpayers more than $100 million," Brown said. "This is one of the most appalling corruption cases ever seen in California, and we will aggressively pursue this conspiracy until all of the facts are exposed."
In January 2007, Erwin was appointed Assistant Assessor of San Bernardino County, a job he held until he resigned in November that year. In September 2008, he was named Chief of Staff to San Bernardino County Supervisor Neil Derry.
Postmus served as a member of the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors from 2000 until January 2007, when he took office as San Bernardino County Assessor. He resigned in February 2009.
In 2002, Colonies filed a lawsuit against the County seeking to recover $23.5 million it had spent on flood-control improvements and challenging the County's easement rights that it claimed deprived Colonies of the ability to develop its property.
On November 28, 2006, the San Bernardino Board of Supervisors voted 3 to 2 to approve a settlement of $102 million with the Colonies, an amount based on an unsubstantiated demand and against the advice of County Counsel and private attorneys.
The complaint alleges those votes were obtained as part of a broad conspiracy which involved extortion and bribery, culminating in acts of public corruption that cost San Bernardino taxpayers tens of millions of dollars. The investigation uncovered four bribes totalling $400,000 paid by the Colonies to secure the settlement.
Colonies gave Erwin $100,000, which was deposited into the Committee for Effective Government PAC he controlled, for his role as an intermediary between Colonies and the supervisors to achieve the settlement. The complaint alleges that Erwin created political mailers depicting Postmus as a drug addict and homosexual in order to blackmail him into voting for the settlement. Erwin also created negative mailers against another supervisor prior to the vote.
In addition to the $100,000 bribe, Erwin accepted other gifts for his role as intermediary, including a private jet trip to New York, meals, lodging, entertainment, prostitutes and a watch. Erwin is facing charges of perjury in connection with failing to report those gifts after he became a county officer.
At the time of the vote to approve the settlement, Postmus was the Chairman of the Board of Supervisors and led the effort to approve the settlement. The complaint alleges that he received $100,000 from Colonies, which he funneled into two Political Action Committees (PACs) that Postmus set up specifically to receive the money. Postmus controlled both PACs, the Inland Empire PAC and "Conservatives for a Republican Majority," but attempted to conceal his connection to them.
Postmus then transferred $50,000 from the Inland Empire PAC into his campaign account and used some of the funds for personal meals and entertainment.
The Chief of Staff for Supervisor Ovitt secretly controlled the Alliance for Ethical Government PAC, which received $100,000 from Colonies. The Chief of Staff received payments for campaign consulting from the PAC.
Colonies also gave $100,000 to the San Bernardino County Young Republicans PAC that was secretly controlled by a member of the board of supervisors who voted in favor of the settlement, and whom Erwin had threatened with the exposure of damaging information. Funds from the PAC were used to pay the supervisor's campaign expenses and fund his campaign account.
The investigation is ongoing and may lead to additional arrests.
San Bernardino County District Attorney Michael A. Ramos stated, "The assistance of the Attorney General's Office has been, and will continue to be, invaluable in our investigation. I would like to thank Attorney General Brown for providing the excellent assistance of Deputy Attorney General Melissa Mandel who has been working directly with our team and Senior Assistant Attorney General Gary Schons for his advice and direction over the past months. It is critical that confidence in their government be restored to the residents of San Bernardino County. This is just one more step in achieving that goal."
In the Attorney General's complaint filed today, Erwin was charged with nine felony counts, including:
- Conspiracy to Commit a Crime (Penal Code Section 182)
- Two counts of Corrupt Influencing (Penal Code Section 85)
- Two counts of Offering a Bribe to a Supervisor (Penal Code Section 165)
- Two counts of Extortion to Obtain an Official Act (Penal Code Section 518)
- Misappropriation of Public Funds (Penal Code Section 424)
- Forgery (Penal Code Section 470)
Postmus was charged with five felony counts, including:
- Conspiracy to Commit a Crime (Penal Code Section 182)
- Accepting a Bribe (Penal Code Section 86)
- Supervisor Accepting a Bribe (Penal Code Section 165)
- Conflict of Interest (Government Code Section 1090)
- Misappropriation of Public Funds (Penal Code Section 424)

As an internationally renowned symphonic and operatic conductor, Gustavo Dudamel is motivated by a profound belief in music's power to unite and inspire. Currently serving as Music & Artistic Director of the Los Angeles Philharmonic and Music Director of the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra of Venezuela, the impact of his leadership extends from the greatest concert stages to classrooms, cinemas and innovative digital platforms around the world. Dudamel also appears as guest conductor with some of the world's most famous musical institutions: in 2017, he tours Europe with the Berlin Philharmonic and is the youngest-ever conductor to lead the Vienna Philharmonic's famous New Year's Day Concert, watched annually by over 50 million people in 90 countries.
Now entering his eighth season as Music & Artistic Director of the Los Angeles Philharmonic, Dudamel's contract has been extended to the end of the 2021-2022 season. At his initiative, the Los Angeles Philharmonic has dramatically expanded the scope of its community outreach programs, including most notably the creation of Youth Orchestra Los Angeles (YOLA), influenced by the philosophy of Venezuela's admired El Sistema, which encourages social development through music. With YOLA and diverse local educational initiatives, Dudamel brings music to children in underserved communities of Los Angeles. These programs have in turn inspired similar efforts throughout the United States, as well as in Sweden (Hammarkullen) and Scotland (Raploch).
At the Los Angeles Philharmonic, not only the breadth of audiences reached is remarkable, but also the depth of programming performed under Dudamel. LA Phil programs continue to represent the best and boldest in new music, including numerous premieres and commissions by composers such as John Adams, Philip Glass, Bryce Dessner, Arvo Pärt, Sofia Gubaidulina, and Kaija Saariaho. A West Coast tour kicks off the LA Phil's 2016-17 season, followed by season highlights including Haydn's Creation, Janáček's Glagolitic Mass, the world premiere of Andrew Norman's New Work for Orchestra, Part 2, several pieces by Lutosławski and a series of evenings contrasting the works of Schubert and Mahler.
Dudamel's work in his native Venezuela serves as the cornerstone of his engagement with young people, and he steadfastly commits some twenty-five weeks of his annual schedule to the orchestras and children of El Sistema, both in Caracas and around the country. During his 18th season as Music Director of the entire El Sistema project, he continues to lead the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra in Venezuela, as well as on tour around the globe. Following a late summer 2016 European tour, the Bolívars and Dudamel launch the Carnegie Hall season in New York with three programs. In March 2017, they perform entire Beethoven symphony cycles in Barcelona, Vienna and for the opening of Hamburg's new Elbphilharmonie concert hall.
Recordings, broadcasts and digital innovations are also fundamental to Dudamel's passionate advocacy for universal access to music. A Grammy Award-winning Deutsche Grammophon artist since 2005, Dudamel's discography includes landmark recordings of John Adams' Gospel According to the Other Mary (commissioned and performed by the Los Angeles Philharmonic), the sound track to the motion picture Libertador, for which Dudamel also composed the score, Mahler Symphonies 5 and 7 with the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra, and Mahler 9 with the Los Angeles Philharmonic. A unique performance of Mahler's "Symphony of a Thousand" featuring the combined forces of the LA Phil and the Bolívars and over 1000 choristers and children from across Venezuela, was captured for DVD/Blu-Ray and broadcast live to cinemas in the US and Canada. A film documentary, Let the Children Play, featuring Dudamel, was also shown in over 500 Fathom movie theaters nationwide. A special charity LP release of Mendelssohn's "Scottish" Symphony with the Vienna Philharmonic raised funds for music education projects in Europe and Latin America. Dudamel has also independently produced an all-Wagner recording available exclusively for download, a complete set of Beethoven symphonies for digital learning, and a streaming broadcast of two Stravinsky ballets with the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra in cooperation with the Berlin Philharmonic's Digital Concert Hall. Set for release in December 2016, his latest Deutsche Grammophon album sees him once again at the helm of the Vienna Philharmonic, this time in an all-Russian programme bringing together two works by Mussorgsky – Pictures at an Exhibition (in Ravel's magnificent orchestration) and A Night on Bald Mountain – and the much-loved Waltz from Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake.
Gustavo Dudamel has been featured three times on CBS's 60 Minutes and was subject of a PBS special, Dudamel: Conducting a Life. He appeared on Sesame Street with Elmo, with Charlie Rose, Conan O'Brian, and on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Most recently, Gustavo had a cameo role in Amazon Studio's award-winning series, Mozart in the Jungle, guest-conducted on the soundtrack for Star Wars: The Force Awakens and, together with members of YOLA, became the first classical musician to participate in the Superbowl Half Time Show, appearing alongside pop stars Coldplay, Beyoncé and Bruno Mars.
Gustavo Dudamel is one of the most decorated conductors of his generation. He received the Americas Society Cultural Achievement Award in 2016, and the 2014 Leonard Bernstein Lifetime Achievement Award for the Elevation of Music in Society from the Longy School. He was named Musical America's 2013 Musician of the Year, one of the highest honors in the classical music industry, and was voted into the Gramophone Hall of Fame. In October of 2011, he was named Gramophone Artist of the Year, and in May of the same year, was inducted into the Royal Swedish Academy of Music in consideration of his "eminent merits in the musical art." The previous year, he received the Eugene McDermott Award in the Arts at MIT. Dudamel was inducted into l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres as a Chevalier in Paris in 2009, and received an honorary doctorate from the Universidad Centroccidental Lisandro Alvarado in his hometown of Barquisimeto. He also received an honorary doctorate from the University of Gothenburg in 2012. In 2008, the Simón Bolívar Youth Orchestra was awarded Spain's prestigious annual Prince of Asturias Award for the Arts and, along with his mentor José Antonio Abreu, Dudamel was given the "Q Prize" from Harvard University for extraordinary service to children.
Named one of Time Magazine's 100 most influential people in 2009, Gustavo Dudamel was born in 1981 in Barquisimeto, Venezuela. He began violin lessons as a child with José Luis Jiménez and Francisco Díaz at the Jacinto Lara Conservatory. He continued his violin studies with Rubén Cova and José Francisco del Castillo at the Latin American Academy of Violin. His conducting studies began in 1996 with Rodolfo Saglimbeni and, that same year, he was given his first conducting position, Music Director of the Amadeus Chamber Orchestra. In 1999, he was appointed Music Director of the Simón Bolívar Youth Orchestra and began conducting studies with the orchestra's founder, Dr. Abreu. Dudamel was brought to international attention by winning the inaugural Bamberger Symphoniker Gustav Mahler Competition in 2004. He then went on to become Music Director of the Gothenburg Symphony (2007-2012), where he currently holds the title Honorary Conductor. His early musical and mentoring experiences inspired his life-long commitment to music as a catalyst for learning, integration, and social change.

There's a photo on my maternal line that confuses me. Well, actually, lots of them confuse me. Many of the photos seem to be of a wedding, and depicting the happy couple. But then another photo will depict the same couple, but wearing different wedding garb. I'm concluding that one photo is actually of the couple's wedding, while another is of the couple standing up to someone ELSE'S wedding.
Here's a photo of my maternal grandmother, Eugenia Orbik, and my maternal grandfather, Steven Marolewski. I thought, "wedding photo." Nope.
The men's tuxes all seem to match. The women's dresses complement each other, but do not match.
I wish I had a wedding photo for my paternal grandparents; I've never seen one.
Next time, I'll share another photo that has me puzzled. Was it common practice for immigrants to re-stage their wedding once they arrived in the U.S.?
On a different note: Congressional hearings take place this week on the Social Security Death Index. It would be a blow if this valuable resource were inaccessible. See Occupy Genealogy on Facebook for information on what's happening with the SSDI, and how you can help.

The holidays offer many chances to reduce, reuse, and recycle. Kate Neese shares some ideas for making your holidays greener.
By Kate Neese
The holidays offer many chances to reduce, reuse, and recycle.
This is a great opportunity to buy gifts that benefit the environment and your wallet. These could include memberships to nature centers, hand-made and homemade gifts, gardening items or long lasting "environmental'' gifts like a solar battery charger with rechargeable batteries, water conserving shower heads or ceramic mugs. For kids, consider giving rechargeable batteries for their electronic gadgets, a camping trip or a gift certificate to a museum.
Use recycled and reusable materials in your gift wrapping and packaging. Buy recycled content wrapping paper, use popcorn for packing and reuse your packing materials. You can also use reused, and reusable, boxes, baskets, bags and tins. Old cards can be recycled into creative gift tags. If you are entertaining, send invitations on recycled paper, buy in bulk, and use reusable dishes and utensils. If you need paper products, buy products made from recycled paper. Set up an area to recycle cans, bottles and other recyclables at your holiday party.
Try to be creative in using reusable materials for your gift-wraps. Make it a holiday tradition in your home to be creative while saving the environment.
You may contact Clinton County Department of Waste Management for more great gift ideas by calling (989) 224-5186 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

Didn't I say I was on a depotting frenzy?
I have 9 NYX trios (overwhelmingly green).
There are three methods you can follow – there is Enkore's which us using Isopropyl Alchohol , and then there's another U Tube video where the trio is baked , finally there is the traditional over the candle method, as used by Vanessa .
I am scared of using heat because they totally ruined my NARS shadows. However, you do need patience to do use the Enkore method (which I don't have) I have 9 palettes to do.
As for the oven method, mine is ommiting a strange smell so…it has to be the good old fashioned method.
Here are my quads. Vanessa has a good guide on how to do it bit by bit – it was ok getting the pan out of the case, but you do need something sturdy and thin.
You need a candle, some kind of grip, towel…
You need to melt it over a tealight.
It starts to bubble like this then it is soft enough.
After two pans, I started to feel dizzy. We are melting plastic people! This gives of toxic fumes! I seriously stated seeing dots…so yes, try and do this in a well ventilated room or outdoors or on a balcony.
Anyway the boyfriend took over at the point, whilst telling that "Make up is the most pointless thing ever".
Bad boyfriend! He will have to tolerate Make Up for as long as I have to tolerate Tekken Online!

Last month, prosecutors sought a one-month delay of the probable cause hearing in the murder case against Aaron Hernandez. Today, their time is up.
As explained by the Fall River (Mass.) Herald News, the probable cause hearing remains set for today. It's a threshold test of the evidence against Hernandez; if probable cause exists to believe he killed Odin Lloyd, Hernandez will stand trial at a later date. If a judge determines probable cause does not exist, the charges will be dropped.
From a strategic standpoint, the probable cause hearing gives Hernandez's lawyers an advance crack at poking holes in the evidence, with the goal of creating reasonable doubt at trial. It's highly unlikely that a judge would find no probable cause exists to believe Hernandez killed Lloyd, given the evidence as previously outlined by prosecutors at Hernandez's bail hearing.
The delay in the probable cause hearing likely arose from the anticipation that Hernandez will be indicted on the charges by a grand jury, which applies the same "probable cause" standard. But Hernandez has not yet been indicted, and Hernandez's lawyers strenuously objected to the delay when it was requested last month.
They'll object even more strenuously to another attempt to run out the clock while the grand jury secretly hears evidence from the prosecution — with no opportunity to challenge the evidence for the defense.
Don't be shocked, then, if the long-awaited indictment of Hernandez comes today, before the hearing is scheduled to begin.

Mission Statement
The Fourth Judicial District is committed to providing equal access to justice, promoting excellence in service, and increasing the public's trust and confidence in the Idaho courts.
Welcome . . .
to the Fourth Judicial District Court of the State of Idaho. The judges of our Bench and our entire courthouse family have compiled this information so that you may learn more about the court and better understand its process and procedures.
The state of Idaho is divided into seven judicial districts, each with an Administrative District Judge who is chosen by the other district judges in the district and a Trial Court Administrator (TCA) who is selected jointly by the Administrative District Judge and the Administrative Director of the State Courts. Thirty-four judges comprise the Fourth District which encompasses Ada County, Elmore County, Boise County, and Valley County.
Eleven district judges are authorized for the Fourth Judicial District with jurisdiction over felonies (the most serious criminal matters) as well as civil matters in which the amount in controversy exceeds $10,000. District judges also hear post-conviction relief actions in which a defendant is challenging his or her conviction or incarceration. District judges also preside over appeals from decisions made by magistrate judges.
Twenty-three magistrate judges are authorized for the Fourth Judicial District with jurisdiction over misdemeanors (less serious criminal matters) as well as civil cases in which the amount in controversy is less than $10,000. Magistrate judges preside over preliminary hearings, habeas corpus proceedings, probate cases, juvenile cases, domestic relations cases, and small claims cases (civil disputes involving less than $5,000). The greatest number of cases handled by magistrate judges includes misdemeanor and infraction cases, most frequently in the form of traffic citations.
There are currently no judicial vacancies in the 4th District.

This is a lesson about the solar wind, Earth's magnetosphere, and the Moon. Participants will work in groups of two or three to build a model of the Sun-Earth-Moon system. They will use the model to demonstrate that the Earth is protected from... (View More) particles streaming out of the Sun, called the solar wind, by a magnetic shield called the magnetosphere, and that the Moon is periodically protected from these particles as it moves in its orbit around the Earth. Participants will also learn that the NASA ARTEMIS mission is a pair of satellites orbiting the Moon that measure the intensity of solar particles streaming from the Sun. (View Less)
In this lesson, learners will first watch a video about the orbit and formation of the MMS satellites to learn about their flight configuration. After, they will research similar facts about other types of satellites. Next, learners will compute the... (View More) volume of MMS' tetrahedral flight configuration and investigate how the tetrahedral volume changes as the satellites change positions. Finally, they will create a report that outlines their findings. This activity requires student access to internet accessible computers. This is lesson three in the MMS Mission Educator's Instructional Guide, which uses examples from the mission to introduce mathematics (focusing on geometry) in a real-world context. The lessons use the 5E instructional cycle. Note: MMS launched March 12, 2015.

Ellis-van Creveld syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that affects bone growth.
Alternative Names
Chondroectodermal dysplasia; EVC
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
Ellis-van Creveld is passed down through families (inherited). It is caused by defects in one of two Ellis van Creveld syndrome genes (EVC and EVC2) that are next to each other.
The severity of the disease varies from person to person. The highest rate of the condition is seen among the Old Order Amish population of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. It is fairly rare in the general population.
Cleft lip or palate Epispadiasor undescended testicle(cryptorchidism)
- Extra fingers (
polydactyly) Limited range of motion Nail problems, including missing or deformed nails
- Short arms and legs, especially forearm and lower leg
- Short height (between 3 1/2 and 5 feet tall)
- Sparse, absent, or fine textured hair
- Tooth abnormalities:
Peg teeth Widely spaced teeth
- Teeth present at birth (
natal teeth) Delayed or missing teeth
Signs and tests
Signs of this condition include:
Growth hormone deficiency
Heart defects, such as a hole in the heart (
atrial septal defect) occur in about half of all cases
Tests include:
Chest x-ray Echocardiogram
- Genetic testing may be available for mutations in the EVC gene
- Skeletal
- Ultrasound
Treatment depends on which body system is affected and the severity of the problem. The condition itself is not treatable, but many of the complications can be treated.
Support Groups
Many communities have Ellis-van Creveld support groups. Ask your health care provider or local hospital if there is one in your area.
Expectations (prognosis)
Many babies with this condition die in early infancy, usually due to a small chest or heart defect.
The outcome depends on which body system is involved and to what extent that body system is involved. Like most genetic conditions involving bones or the physical structure, intelligence is normal.
- Bone abnormalities
Breathing difficulty Congenital heart disease(CHD) especially atrial septal defect(ASD)
- Kidney disease
Calling your health care provider
Call your health care provider if your child has symptoms of this syndrome. If you have a family history of Ellis-van Creveld syndrome and your child has any symptoms, visit your health care provider.
Genetic counseling can help families understand the condition and how to care for the patient.
Genetic counseling is recommended for prospective parents from a high-risk group, or who have a family history of Ellis-van Creveld syndrome.
