"The reform of the law enforcement system is not happening fast. For instance, the Donetsk and Luhansk regions are effectively left without the Security Service and police who are supposed to be prepared to fulfill their constitutional duties. All these systems need to be restored virtually from scratch. But I we have the capability of defending our country," Turchynov said on the 1+1 television channel on May 18.
The Ukrainian Interior Ministry is selecting human resources as part of the law enforcement reform, he said."Today the Interior Ministry selects precisely the people prepared to perform the national tasks under very complex conditions," Turchynov said.

Robert Pattinson: Hotter Before or After the Kristen Stewart Cheating Scandal?
Most people are a hot mess while dealing with relationship issues. But Robert Pattinson looked plain hot yesterday during his appearance on The Daily Show With Jon Stewart and at the New York City premiere of Cosmopolis at the Museum of Modern Art.
Rob is a bona fide heartthrob, but has he in fact become cuter since his relationship with Kristen Stewart hit the rocks last month amid a cheating scandal with married director Rupert Sanders?

D'Eon is a French nobleman bent on serving his Divine Majesty Louis the XIV to the best of his abilities, following in the footsteps of his beloved sister Lia de Beaumont. However, his straight-forward role with the secret police is interrupted by the sudden death of his sister while on a diplomatic mission in foreign lands. In his desire to find the truth of her murder, he comes before the King and becomes closely entwined in the mysterious organization known as Le Secret du Roi. He quickly finds himself embroiled in a realm of spiritual energy where death is a gate to greater powers and the Psalm of the King brings destruction in its wake. D'Eon must ask himself what is the price of truth and who will pay it, as the French Revolution looms inevitably nearer.

The otolaryngologist must recognize when the epiglottis is inverted or risk inserting the laryngoscope too far and traumatizing the vocal folds.
Due to the development of Hib vaccines, the epidemiology of epiglottitis has shifted dramatically back toward adult presentations, with a marked decline in the incidence among children.
Patients whose body mass index (BMI) is 30 or greater have a higher likelihood of a distorted anatomy, which can make tracheotomy tube placement difficult.
Alendronate is commonly used in the treatment of osteoporosis and other bone diseases. Its drug profile includes many recognized side effects, and the literature includes case reports of esophageal irritation and ulceration. However, little has been published about laryngeal effects. We describe the case of a 77-year-old man who presented with hemoptysis secondary to laryngeal ulceration caused by the inadvertent misuse of alendronate. This case highlights the need for otolaryngologists to be familiar with alendronate and its side effects.
We report an uncommon case of symptomatic venous malformation of the larynx in a 22-year-old man, and the successful surgical management thereof. A detailed radiologic investigation of the lesion was done, followed by surgical excision via a suprahyoid pharyngotomy using cold instruments. Long-term follow-up was maintained, and the patient had subjective and objective resolution of his symptoms and signs at 3 years postoperatively. We conclude that radiology can reveal hitherto unsuspected extensions of vascular malformations in the neck and that surgical excision is a viable mode of treatment in upper aerodigestive venous malformations.
Pasteurella multocida is a gram-negative coccobacillus that primarily affects animals. P multocida infections in humans are usually associated with animal contact. To the best of our knowledge, only 7 cases of P multocida epiglottitis have been previously reported in the English-language literature; none of these cases occurred in a patient with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. We describe what we believe is the first reported case of P multocida epiglottitis in a patient with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and we review the previous reports of this rare entity.
Laryngeal plasmacytoma is rare in Japan; to the best of our knowledge, only 8 other cases have been previously reported. We report a new case of extramedullary plasmacytoma of the larynx in a 76-year-old Japanese woman. Immunohistochemical investigation revealed that her disease had not progressed to multiple myeloma. The patient declined radiotherapy, and her condition remained stable at the 6-month follow-up.

Another challenger puts her hat in the ring to lead Hillsborough Democrats by Mitch E. Perry
Next week, the Hillsborough County Democratic Executive Committee will vote to select its next Chairperson, replacing Janee Murphy.
There will be many challenges for local Democratic head ââ¬â After last monthââ¬â¢s election, there is now only 1 Democrat on the County Commission. Democrats were also unsuccessful in defeating Ronda Storms in the District 10 State Senate race.
Last night we interviewed Michael Steinbergââ¬Â¦Tonight, another candidate we speak to is Pat Kemp. Kemp has been hired by Congresswoman-elect Kathy Castor to act as a community liason in the 11th District.
Kemp is also the wife of WMNFââ¬â¢s Program Director, Randy Wynne. There will be a number of challenges in trying to resuscitate the local Democratic Party in Hillsborough. WMNF asked Kemp, why she wants to take on this job (roll tape#1 o.q.ââ¬?thatââ¬â¢s what we have to doââ¬?)
Thatââ¬â¢s Pat Kemp, Community Liason for Congresswoman-elect Kathy Castor, and a candidate for the Hillsborough Countyââ¬â¢s Democratic Executive Committee Chair.
WMNF has made contact with the 2 other candidates in the race: Mike Suarez, and Bob Keenen. They have not returned that contact at this time,.comments powered by Disqus

First post and about to pour cement..
I got bitten by the bug......I want to build a smallish Pompeii style oven. I'm about to pour a 3.5ft X 3.5ft x 4 inch thick pad with wire mesh for support using Sakrete pro 5000 PSI cement. Using cinder block U shape for the walls reinforced by rebar. Everything else is up in the air. My wife says what I have so far is too big as it is! LOL.
Any recommendations for the size of the top and oven would be greatly appreciated. Simpler the better. :)
Re: First post and about to pour cement..
Welcome to the quest. My thought at this point is that a 3.5 ft. slab (42") will house an oven of internal size of 27" max. That is fine if you want that size. Also, a square slab does not allow room for an entry/landing to work the oven.
Do you have some plans you could post? Take some pics and post of your site so we can see what you are planning.
Re: First post and about to pour cement..
Put some rebar (with hooked ends) in instead of WWF. This will give considerably more strength than mesh alone.
In fact you can skip the mesh (WWF or Welded Wire Fabric). WWF use is primary for crack control in non loaded slabs such as sidewalks.
Re: First post and about to pour cement..
If your wife says it's too big (I never get that complaint) you should go bigger.

The present study was undertaken to assess the ability of ovarian hormones to alter methamphetamine (MA)-induced dopaminergic toxicity in male and female mice gonadectomized at 4 and 6 weeks of age. None of the following three treatments, estradiol benzoate (EB, 3 × 0.47 µg), progesterone (Prog, 3 × 0.47 µg), or EB (2 × 0.47 µg) followed by Prog (0.47 µg), affected the dopamine (DA)-depleting effects of MA in male and female mice gonadectomized when they were 4 weeks old. However, in contrast to the findings that male mice are more sensitive to MA-induced DA depletion than female mice, no sexual differences in the sensitivity to MA treatment were observed in mice gonadectomized at this age. Moreover, three daily doses of EB (0.47 µg) and EB (0.47 µg) combined with 4-hydroxytamoxifen (4OHT, 6 µg) effectively attenuated striatal DA depletion produced by MA in female mice ovariectomized at 6 weeks of age. Three daily doses of Prog (0.47 µg) and EB (0.47 µg) combined with 4OHT (6 µg) significantly attenuated MA-induced striatal DA depletion in male mice gonadectomized at 6 weeks of age. Taken together, the modulating effects of ovarian hormones on MA-induced DA depletion in mouse striatum could be sex- and age-dependent. 4OHT did not block the protecting effects of EB on MA-induced DA depletion in female and male mice, suggesting that the estrogen receptor may not be involved in the protective effects of EB on attenuating MA-induced DA toxicity.

Traffic update: Wilmore Road, Derby, re-opened following crash
Posted: February 06, 2013|
Wilmore Road has re-opened after it was closed earlier this morning following a three car collision close to the Rolls Royce site.
Traffic is still slow travelling through St Alkmund's Way and on king Street due to work going on in the area.
09.40am -
SWARKESTONE Road, Derby, is now open after a crash caused serious delays in the area. There is still some slow moving traffic in the area.
Police are still dealing with the aftermath of an accident on Wilmore Road near Rolls Royce. A fuel spill caused by the accident is being cleared.
The work taking place on St Alkmund's Way is also causing problems particularly on the A6 King Street as it enters the inner ring road.
08.55am -
Two car collision on A38 closes one lane northbound on A38 near Burton.
The accident occurred after a car entering the dual carriageway was hit by another vehicle at the Clay Mills slip road.
Traffic is said to be very heavy in the area and police are on route to the accident.
08.45am -
A FIVE car crash has closed the A514 from the A50 to the Chellaston Academy.
The accident, which occurred at around 7.40, has totally closed the road with recovery of the vehicles not expected until at least 9am.
There are no serious injuries however fire crews had to cut two people free from the accident.
08.20am -
TRAFFIC is queueing along the westbound carriageway from Borrowash into Pentagon Island. There has been no accident but traffic is moving slowly.
The A514 at Swarkestone Bridge is busy and Sir Frank Whittle Way is also queuing to the Pentagon Island.
Traffic is also beginning to build up around the bridge works on St Alkmund's Way.
07.39am -
A THREE car collision on Wilmore Road is causing chaos in the area as drivers begin their morning commute.
The accident where Wilmore Road meets Merril Way is causing queues with one driver being taken to hospital although their injuries are not thought to be life threatening.
7.15am -
A yellow warning for ice is in place after temperatures plummeted last night in Derbyshire.
The Met Office has a yellow warning in place for ice across the county with drivers being urged to make their way carefully, particularly in the Peak.
But the Snake Pass and Woodhead Pass are both moving freely after being shut overnight due to snow fall yesterday.
In Derby traffic is moving well but the ongoing work on St Alkmund's Way is causing traffic problems on the A6 and surrounding routes around the city.
The eastbound A52 by Mackworth is also starting to slow due to road works heading to Markeaton Roundabout.

Okay, so he went 3-5 tonight.
But that has nothing to do with this post. Just coincidence.
You can be a 5-tool player, but if you can't hit, it doesn't matter what you're other physical tools are. Dickerson has a quick bat. That homer he hit tonight was all bat speed. I was impressed.
My opinion is that if he continues to be selective at the plate, he will stick. He can hit and do things others cannot do. He got moved from CF to LF late in the game, and someone hit one down the line. He got to it so fast, he held the hitter to a single. Dunn would have never done that. I was impressed again.
I think we found our future CFer. I hope his plate selectivity continues. He has alot of potential.

CLEMSON, S.C. (AP) -- Kenny Kadji scored 12 points, including the go-ahead 3-pointer with 36 seconds left to keep No. 3 Miami perfect in Atlantic Coast Conference play after a 45-43 victory at Clemson on Sunday night.
The Hurricanes (21-3, 12-0) finished with their fewest points of the season, and their high-scoring guard duo of Durand Scott and Shane Larkin were a combined 3-of-16 shooting for 10 points. Still, Miami pulled it out on Kadji's wide-open 3.
Clemson (13-12, 5-8) had three chances to answer back, but Rod Hall was called for an offensive foul on one trip and, after Trey McKinney Jones made a foul shot, Hall missed a layup and K.J. McDaniels failed on a tip.
The Hurricanes hugged each other when the horn sounded, grateful to escape and continue the league's longest undefeated start since Duke went 16-0 in 1998-99.

Every drop of water is stuffed with the greenest of fuels, hydrogen, but getting it out is a challenge. A new material raises the prospect of doing so using noise pollution – from major roads, for example.
A team at the University of Wisconsin-Madison made crystals of zinc oxide that, when immersed in water, absorb vibrations and develop areas of strong negative and positive charge. These charges rip apart nearby water molecules, releasing hydrogen and oxygen gas.
"This is like a free lunch," says lead researcher Huifang Xu. "You are getting energy from the environment just like solar cells capture energy from the sun."
Underwater operator
Xu and colleagues generate hydrogen using a new variation on piezoelectric crystals – materials that generate a voltage when strained and which are being investigated as a way to generate electricity from movement.
The new crystals, however, are designed to be submerged, so the charge they generate instead pulls apart water molecules to release hydrogen and oxygen gas, a mechanism Xu's team calls the piezoelectrochemical effect.
Xu and colleagues grew thin microfibers of highly flexible zinc oxide crystals that flex when subjected to vibration, for example due to sound waves. They showed that ultrasonic vibrations under water cause the fibres to bend between 5 and 10 degrees at each end, creating an electrical field with a high enough voltage to split water and release oxygen and hydrogen.
Growing fibres with different dimensions changes the type of vibration they absorb best. For instance, it should be possible to tune them to maximise energy production from the vibrations caused by water flowing past or any other sound, say Xu.
Efficiency issue
Xu says that lab tests suggested the material can convert 18 per cent of the energy it absorbs from vibration into energy locked up in hydrogen gas, which can be released by burning.
Conventional piezoelectric materials are not as efficient at converting vibrations into electricity, and typically achieve around a 10 percent conversion rate. Using the charge a material generates indirectly, to split water, instead of directly to drive current, accounts for the difference, says Xu. The new materials could be used to develop systems that generate hydrogen from the noise of anything from machinery to crashing waves, he adds.
"It's a good idea," says Jinhui Song of Georgia Tech University, Atlanta. Because there is no need to create a circuit, devices based on the new crystals could be simpler than those based on conventional dry piezoelectrics, he points out. "They can reduce the complexity of the device."
However, he's sceptical that the wet devices should necessarily be more efficient. In principle, says Song, the energy generated by a material should be the same however it is deployed.

Managing point of sale (POS) and customer relationship management (CRM) are the two critical functions for cell phone retailers. While inventory is not typically extensive for cell phone stores, it does change frequently. Most cell phone contracts in the United States are for two years. During the contract period, cell phone retailers can sell accessories to the owners. As the contract nears its end, the retailer can contact the owner about new phone options. However, this strategy only works if the retailer knows the client, the phone, and the end date of the contract.
Accounts receivable, accounts payable, general ledger and payroll are all standard. In fact, some operations just use inventory, POS and CRM. They outsource payroll and use spreadsheets and paper records for the rest of the operations. Most cell phone stores use on-premises systems. Software-as-a-service solutions are available and cloud-bases sytems are a reasonable alternative for cell phone stores.
In addition to core business functions, wireless and cellular retailers should consider the following functions to meet their unique requirements:
|Phone model tracking
|The system should track each customer's phone model. As new accessories become available, sales agents can contact customers that own the correct model phone. This is also useful if the manufacturer releases an updated version of a phone.
|Phone serial number tracking
|The system should track the serial number for each phone from receipt into inventory and through to sale to the end user. This is useful in case the phone is lost or stolen.
|Phone identifier tracking
|The system should track each phone identifier to the phone's serial number and to the customer. This includes the electronic serial number (ESN) and mobile equipment identifier (MEID) for code division multiple access (CDMA) and subscriber identity module (SIM) cards for global system for mobile communications (GSM) phones.
|Vendor compliance reporting
|The system should track which contracts are sold for each carrier. It should produce the sales and contract compliance reports as required.
|Contract expiration date
|The system should store the contract expiration date for each customer. When the expiration date approaches, the system should notify the sales team and send a reminder to the customer.
|Date of last phone purchase
|The system should track the date of the last phone purchase. As the date approaches two years, the system should notify the sales team and send a reminder to the customer to upgrade to a new phone.
|Accessory look up

R&B singer Miguel arrested for DUI
R&B artist Miguel is in a lot of legal trouble -- and it's not for kicking a fan in the head.
The singer behind hits "Adorn" and "#Beautiful" with Mariah Carey was arrested for driving while drunk in Los Angeles early Thursday (August 15), TMZ reports. Law enforcement sources say that California Highway Patrol officers pulled the 27-year-old over for speeding and tinted windows around 2:15 a.m., but then noticed that Miguel smelled like alcohol.
Officers then performed various sobriety tests, all of which he failed. Miguel -- full name Miguel Jontel Pimentel -- took a breathalyzer and blew a .10 and .11 (which is over the .08 legal limit in Calif.).
Miguel was taken to a nearby station where he was booked and released a few hours later on $5,000 bail. He's scheduled to appear in court in September.

MechaCrash: I just hope they realize that part of the problem with the Wii U was its relative lack of power. You can still make good games with what the Wii U has, but third parties won't want to deal with it when they can target the more popular PS4/XB1.07/02/2015 - 10:59am

MechaCrash: Gee, how did people ever get the idea Gaters are morons who argue in bad faith? It's such a mystery.07/02/2015 - 7:03am
E. Zachary Knight: Goth, again, no one is saying that we shouldn't be writig uncomfortable subject matter. What people are saying is that chances are you are going to write it poorly so it would be better to not have done it at all.07/02/2015 - 7:00am
Goth_Skunk: discussed or portrayed in an expressive medium. Such an opinion only serves to stifle discussion. And as I said before, the only thing not worth talking about is what shouldn't be talked about.07/02/2015 - 6:50am
Goth_Skunk: @Info: The same reason why I would entertain the notion that the Wired article writer could be right: Curiosity. Except in this case, I'm not curious at all. I'm not interested in hearing anyone's opinion on why uncomfortable subject matter shouldn't be07/02/2015 - 6:49am

Infophile: @Goth: If you're not willing to entertain the idea you might be wrong, fine. That's your right. But why should anyone else entertain the idea that you might be right? If they go by the same logic, they already know you're wrong, so why listen to you?07/02/2015 - 3:53am
Mattsworkname: Eh, I love the new batmobile personally, it's a blast to mess aroudn with. Plus, the game is set in a situation that mroe or less leaves batman with no choice but to go full force. And even then, it still shows him doing all he can to limit casualties.07/01/2015 - 11:38pm
Andrew Eisen: Agreed. Luckily, we don't seem to be in danger of that of late. No one's suggesting, for example, that tanks shouldn't be in video games, only that the tank in Arkham Knight is poorly implemented and out of place from a characterization standpoint.07/01/2015 - 11:27pm

Mattsworkname: find offensive or disturbing, and that mindset leads to censorship. It's all well and good to say "This would be better IF", just so long as we remember not to let it slide into "This is offensive, REMOVE IT". IE , the current issues surroundign the07/01/2015 - 11:19pm
Mattsworkname: Andrew and goth both have points, and to that point, I'll say. Saying somethign is improved by changing something isn't a problem, on that I agree with , but at the same time, on of the issues we have in our society is that we want to simply remove things07/01/2015 - 11:18pm
Andrew Eisen: See? Suggestions for improvements that involve taking things away do not mean the work is garbage or performing poorly, critically or commercially.07/01/2015 - 9:29pm
Andrew Eisen: Skyward Sword is spiff-a-rific but it would be an improved experience if the game didn't explain what each item and rupee was every single time you picked them up!07/01/2015 - 9:27pm

By CARL SMITH
As Orlando TrainerтАЩs vehicle kicks up rocks and mud while traveling through Oktibbeha CountyтАЩs winding gravel roads Monday, the District 2 supervisor says a little asphalt can go a long way toward improving quality of life and economic development.
тАЬInfrastructure is the basic function of government because it impacts everyone no matter if theyтАЩre rich, poor, white or black,тАЭ Trainer said as he turned onto Osborn Road. тАЬItтАЩs always good to help people no matter what district theyтАЩre in. Improving roads improves our community. We shouldnтАЩt wait until they deteriorate to maintain them.тАЭ
Trainer led a tour through District 2 Monday and highlighted many of its areas in need of infrastructure improvements. In the previous Oktibbeha County Board of Supervisors meeting, Trainer told fellow county representatives тАЬnow is the time to act on road projects.тАЭ Funding for such projects could come from realigning the countyтАЩs budget, borrowing money without impacting the millage rate or by a bond issue. All options are on the table, Trainer said, as long as county residents are in agreement.
Pat Station Road, the first road Trainer pointed out Monday, is a thoroughfare which extends into Starkville and allows commuters to travel from the Highway 12 bypass to Highway 25 via Garrard Road. From the city, Pat Station Road connects to Old West Point Road via 16th Section Road.
тАЬThere are 30 to 40 families in this area,тАЭ Trainer said on a gravel portion of Pat Station Road. тАЬThis project was worked into a county road plan and should have been completed during a previous term, but money and weather issues delayed the project. We can only do so much at a time, but we need to get out of the habit of adjusting our road plan around delays.тАЭ
Improving the portion of Pat Station Road closest to the bypass could help spur economic development in the area. A portion of land on each side of Pat Station Road in that area is designated commercial, Trainer noted.
As for stimulating housing growth in the county, Trainer said work to Osborn Road could serve as an example toward raising property values in a small community.
тАЬThereтАЩs a lot of history in Osborn. While growth in other county areas has occurred, it really hasnтАЩt happened here,тАЭ Trainer said. тАЬYou could say a $1 million investment тАФ just a ballpark figure тАФ out here would pay dividends easily because the cost of the project could easily double in the future. All of the land out here is highly developable. Paving this area of Oktibbeha County would not only improve the quality of life for this communityтАЩs residents, but also bring about more people looking to build out here.тАЭ
By marketing the county as a place to live, Trainer said the tax base would increase along with funding for services.
тАЬI think we can market ourselves as a bedroom community. We can tell people that if they want to work in Lowndes or Clay (counties) thatтАЩs fine, but you can live here,тАЭ he said. тАЬWeтАЩre growing very quickly in Oktibbeha County. The way you increase quality of life is through infrastructure and education. These road projects would help our communities across the board.тАЭ
Besides paving projects, Trainer said other infrastructure projects would target road flooding. County drivers routinely find portions of Muldrow Road, located west of Osborn Road, flooded after significant and mild rain events, he said.
тАЬThereтАЩs no excuse to have a road underwater in 2012,тАЭ he said. тАЬWe can raise the road to help fight this and we can also knock back (vegetation which blocks sunlight) from the roads.тАЭ
The board took no action Jan. 18 after Trainer discussed the need for project funding. Supervisors did agree a work session should be held in the future to develop specific goals and analyze payment options.

The Bachelorette
Who Is Emily Maynard's Valentine?
It's the most romantic day of the year — otherwise known as Valentine's Day! But guys? It's also the most depressing day of the year, at least for those of us who are currently in an intimate relationship with our Sean Lowe body pillow.
Yep, V-Day is an emotional time for single ladies, but Emily Maynard isn't letting her lack of boy-toy get the better of her. Why? Because she already has a perfect Valentine — her daughter, Ricki! Who needs a man when you have an adorable kiddo? Girl power, everyone.
Emily and Ricki took it to the interwebs to wish fans a Happy Valentine's Day, and we love their bright red lipstick! Like mother like daughter, y'all. Before we know it, Ricki will be decked out in glitter and frolicking through a meadow of roses.
Also, Ricki is currently missing her two front teeth. Guess we know what's on her Christmas list!

The Road to Beijing
• In March 2001, 6'-7" (202 cm) Maarten was diagnosed with leukemia. After losing half his body weight and a stem cell transplant, Maarten was lucky to recover.
• After a long road of recovery, Maarten qualified for the Olympic 10K Marathon Swim by finishing fourth in the 2008 World Open Water Swimming Championships and became the world champion in the 25K race a few days later.
• Maarten is currently preparing for the Olympic 10K Marathon Swim to be held on August 20th in Beijing.
Racing Strategy
• "I know I can swim faster in the last 100 meters, so I am patient and save something."
The Recovery from Leukemia
• "I learned from my cancer. I learned to approach challenges step-by-step. I can see that having leukemia is helping me now: It's making me stronger because everything I go through in life from now on will be easier than what I went through to beat the cancer. The pain and fatigue that you feel in the [open water swimming] race, I went through that for a whole year to beat the cancer, so, I know I can do it [in the race]."
The 2008 World Open Water Swimming Championships
• Maarten established himself as one of the world�s most versatile open water swimmers when he won a bronze in the 5K, a fourth in the 10K and a gold in the 25K at the 2008 World Championships. "I thought that if I win a medal in one of my three races I would be happy. I was the only male competitor to swim in all three events, and I thought it might put me at a disadvantage, but now I'm world champion. My dream of the last four years was to be world champion, and now, to do my second dream and go to the Olympics is amazing."
Training Regimen
• Swims 9,000 � 14,000 meters per day with a maximum of 120,000 meters per week (74.5 miles!) with 30 minutes of core body exercises every morning. Technically speaking, �I do lots of slow work, where my lactate is not reaching 2. I also do max holding sets and lactate production sets, but that is not a big part of my total volume.
• Sleeps in an altitude tent and takes naps for as long as he can in order to be in the altitude tent as long as possible

Mineola, NY – Winthrop-University Hospital is pleased to announce that it has received full accreditation of its extensive biomedical research program by the prestigious Association for the Accreditation of Human Research Protection Programs, Inc. (AAHRPP). Winthrop is now among only 159 organizations worldwide to have earned the accreditation since the AAHRPP was established in 2001. Accreditation is available to U.S. and international organizations that conduct biomedical, behavioral or social sciences research involving human participants.
"The protection of our research volunteers is of paramount importance to Winthrop's physician scientists," said John F. Aloia, MD, the Hospital's Chief Academic Officer. "AAHRPP accreditation is our assurance to them that multiple systems are in place to safeguard them throughout the research process."
As part of its mission as an academic medical center, Winthrop has a vigorous biomedical research program that includes both basic research (laboratory studies) and clinical research (studies that involve human subjects, such as clinical trials). AAHRPP accreditation applies to the clinical components of the research enterprise.
"The 159 accredited organizations have demonstrated that they can achieve AAHRPP's high standards," said AAHRPP President and CEO Marjorie A. Speers, Ph.D. "That distinguishes them from their non-accredited peers and increases their appeal to sponsors, research partners and research participants."
Through the rigorous AAHRPP accreditation process, organizations must demonstrate that they have built extensive safeguards into every level of their research operation and that they adhere to the highest standards for research. AAHRPP's standards exceed federal regulations by requiring organizations to address conflict of interest, to provide community outreach and education and to apply the same stringent protections to all research involving human participants. The accreditation process was coordinated at Winthrop by Tina Berry, CIP, Director of Winthrop's Institutional Review Board, and Alex Schoen, MBA, Director of Winthrop's Office of Sponsored Programs.
As a teaching hospital, scholarship and research go hand-in-hand at Winthrop. Extensive research is conducted through Winthrop's Clinical Trials Center, where physician researchers carry out investigational studies of new drugs and protocols on a broad range of topics, and in research laboratories where scientists study the molecular biology of disease. Researchers in the Office of Health Outcomes investigate healthcare and its outcomes at the level of the patient, the clinician, the practice setting, the institution, the community, and society as a whole.
Research at Winthrop is focused on three major themes that comprise the most urgent healthcare challenges of today: diabetes and cardiometabolic syndrome; infant prematurity and perinatal conditions; and chronic disease and aging. At Winthrop, physician scientists work closely with PhD research investigators to translate scientific discoveries derived in bench research to clinical solutions applied at the bedside.
"This is what distinguishes a teaching hospital from a community hospital," said Daniel P. Walsh, president and CEO of Winthrop, "the intellectual energy and spirit of inquiry which challenges all of us on a daily basis to advance research and strive for clinical excellence."
Winthrop-University Hospital is a 591-bed university-affiliated medical center with a deep commitment to medical education and research, offering a full complement of inpatient and outpatient services. Winthrop's mission is shaped by the basic value of "Care without compromise," and a deep and abiding commitment to the integrity, comfort and well-being of every individual.

Swift Current Indians
The visiting Swift Current Indians snapped the Melville Millionaires nine-game winning streak with an 11-8 win Sunday.
The Indians trailed 5-0 after two innings, scored seven straight runs to take a 7-5 lead, allowed three more runs in the fourth inning to trail 8-7, before scoring four unanswered runs to clinch the win.
Garrett Taggart earned the win in a five-inning relief appearance for the Tribe. He allowed four hits and three runs to pick up his second win of the season. Seth Haehl pitched a scoreless eighth and Cody Chartrand earned the save with a scoreless ninth inning.
The Indians only had nine hits in the game but scored 11 runs after combining 10 walks with four Melville errors even though they left 16 runners on base.
Bryant Munoz doubled, singled, scored three runs and had a run batted in to improve his average to .294. Danny Clifford also scored three runs with a double and two walks. Matt Henriksen singled, walked twice, scored twice, and had two RBI's.
The win clinched top spot for the Indians over Melville in the Eastern Conference. The Tribe improved to 29-15 with two games remaining, while Melville dropped to 28-17 with their first loss since July 16 and only one game left in the regular season. The Indians won the season series 3-1 between the two possible second-round playoff opponents. The Tribe will now have home field advantage in the first two rounds of the playoffs.
The Indians will play their final home game on Monday in a first-round playoff preview when they host the Weyburn Beavers at 7:05 at Mitchell Field.
The Indians will visit the Western Major Baseball League leading Medicine Hat Mavericks on Tuesday to close out the regular season.

Five Videos is an online series "hosted" by Rhizome, in collaboration with FACT, responding to the Liverpool Biennial's theme, The Unexpected Guest. Each week throughout the Liverpool Biennial, an artist will curate five videos about hospitality. We begin this series with Adham Faramawy's selection, considering science fictional luxury and hypercapitalist imagery from hotel adverts in Dubai.
Burj Khalifa, Dubai
In response to the Liverpool Biennial's theme of 'Hospitality', I decided to take a look at an aspect of the hospitality of a city that has become important to me, Dubai.
Dubai is one of the emirates of The United Arab Emirates. It is both a city and a corporation where the government has set up industry specific free zones exempting companies from the usual tax laws. As a city, Dubai exemplifies neoliberal business and culture. Watching the development of this emirate has been like watching a myth in process.
I'm Egyptian, based in London, born in Dubai just before the economic boom. My mother and sister both live in Dubai and work in the Media City free zone. Some of their work as journalists involves attending product launches and receiving corporate hospitality in the hope that they will cover new products, spas and beauty treatments. For me this has meant looking at a lot of Facebook pictures taken in hotels and the occasional chance to tag along for an interview with a businesswoman or the first lady of Malaysia at Atlantis on The Palm.
Some of the videos I've selected were produced by the Jumeirah Group to advertise their facilities. All the videos employ utopic science fictional visual language to display spectacular 'luxury' experiences.
In these videos, the hotel experience is constructed in terms of the superhuman. With the laissez-faire attitude of Randian capitalism, the idealism of an athletic body post-Riefenstahl is sublimated, defining the very character of the building it inhabits. The architectures in these short narratives are set up, as with every successful advert, to create a (potentially phallic) lack in the prospective consumer. As such the neoliberal luxury experience of the spa is offered as the filler to satisfy that lack, a near spiritual solution to the stresses and speed of corporate business.
It is here that I would like to point out the similarities between the video adverts for the Talise Ottoman spa in the Zaabeel Saray hotel and videos of the Damanhurian Temples of Humankind, located inside a mountain north of Turin, Italy. Both spaces appear to refer to an arabesque style in their backlit stain glass windows, which alongside their skyscape frescos act as a nexus between Islam, ancient Rome, and new age spiritual systems.
As much as these spaces and the videos advertising them draw on a nascent spiritualism to attract consumers, they also use images of the active body and celebrity.
In 2008 Andre Agassi and Roger Federer played tennis on a specially turfed court on the helipad at Burj Al Arab. In an exciting and peculiar display of integrated spectacle, the content produced is part advert, part celebrity reality-curio fashioned for television. The pair ascends the building in a glass elevator, invoking the childlike awe of Charlie and The Chocolate Factory, as they discuss the impressive scale of the hotel to a soundtrack of The Never Ending Story, appealing to childhood fantasy narratives more directly...

Five tracks from BYFROST can be heard on the band's SoundCloud Player at http://soundcloud.com/ byfrost
PATRICIA THOMAS Management has issued the following:
Two generations of Bergen bands are set to tour Europe in October, bringing with them the blackened sounds and performances that makes Norway's second largest city one of the foremost producers of extreme metal. Headlining will be TAAKE, formed in 1993 by Hoest, one of the most dynamic front men in Black Metal. With a plethora of releases and a wealth of stage experience behind them TAAKE has become one of the leading Black Metal bands playing today. Supporting will be BYFROST who already have two full length albums to their credit, and whose aggressive black 'n roll, combined with elements of thrash, have earned them a large fan base following recent appearances at some of the top European festivals. Also on the tour will be the UK's DONN THE PHILOSOPHY.
Tour dates as follows:
Fri 14 – The Rock, Copenhagen (DK)
Sat 15 – TBA
Sun 16 – Baroeg, Rotterdam (NL)
Mon 17 – Werkstat, Cologne (DE)
Tue 18 – Biebob, Vosselaar (BE)
Wed 19 – Underworld, London (UK)
Thu 20 – Glazart, Paris (FR)
Fri 21 – Club 45, Zug (CH)
Sat 22 – Init, Rome (IT)
Sun 23 – Rock Planet, Ravenna (IT)
Both bands will be touring with new releases. TAAKE's "Noregs Vaapen" is due for release on Dark Essence Records in mid September, whilst BYFROST's "Of Death" was released on AFM Records in June of this year. More information about TAAKE can be found at http://taake.svartekunst.no/ and BYFROST at http://www.myspace.com/byfrostmetal
Blackened Metallers BYFROST have debuted two tracks from the band's second full-length album "Of Death". The 8 track album, which is due for release on AFM Records in June in both CD and LP formats, was recorded at the Conclave & Earshot Studios in the band's home town of Bergen, Norway, and was produced by ENSLAVED's Herbrand Larsen together with BYFROST, and co-produced by ENSLAVED guitarist Ice Dale. Mastering was carried out by Knut Fug Prytz at the Magica Mastering Studio. Artwork and Design are once again in the hands of Christian Sloan Hall, known for his work with bands like DIMMU BORGIR and SLAYER. The two tracks "Of Death" and "Buried Alive" can be heard on the band's MySpace page at http://www.myspace.com/byfrostmetal. Track listing for "Of Death" as follows:
1. May the Dead Rise
2. Eye for an Eye
3. Buried Alive
4. Of Death
5. Full Force Rage
6. Shadow of Fear
7. Sorgh
8. All Gods are Gone
Formed in 2007 by front man and guitarist HeavyHarms and bassist R.I.P Meister, the band's first release was the "Byfrostmetal" EP, which appeared in 2008 whilst the band was still a four piece. The debut full length album "Black Earth" was released in 2010, by which time BYFROST had become a three piece, and had been joined on drums by Mads Liletvedt (HELLISH OUTCAST). "Black Earth" marked the continuing cooperation between the band and ENSLAVED members Ice Dale, who guested on the album, and Larsen, who, aside from producing both full-lengths, also features on two tracks on the upcoming "Of Death".
BYFROST are scheduled to appear at this year's Pary. San Festival in Germany and the Bloodstock Festival in the UK in August and this will be the first time that fans outside of Norway will be able to see the band perform tracks from the new album. "Of Death" itself is set for release on the 24th June in Germany, and will hit the streets worldwide on the 27th. More information about BYFROST can be found at http://www.myspace.com/byfrostmetal
Below you can see fan-filmed footage of BYFROST performing "Black Earth" live at the Karmoygeddon Arctic Festival in 2010.

Peavey pitches B-Mets to series tying win
7/25/2014 (Updated 11:10:41 PM)BINGHAMTON, NY – The Binghamton Mets used a strong start from Greg Peavey to top the Trenton Thunder, 6-1, on Friday night at Arm & Hammer Park. The righty tossed eight innings, gave up one run and struck out seven batters. Darrell Ceciliani tallied two RBI, scored a run and stole two bases in the win.
After each team traded zeroes threw three, Binghamton got on the board in the fourth against Dan Camarena. Brian Burgamy smacked a double down the left-field line to start the frame. He moved to third base on a Dustin Lawley single to right. T.J. Rivera came through with an RBI single to plate Burgamy for the first run of the game. After Travis Taijeron reached on an error by the first baseman Francisco Arcia, Darrell Ceciliani hit a sacrifice fly to right field that brought home Lawley to make the score 2-0.
Trenton came back with a run of their own in the bottom of the frame against Greg Peavey. Jake Cave singled to put the lead off man on. He moved to second on a ground out and third on a wild pitch. Peter O'Brien hit into a ground out to short, but Cave scored on the play to cut the lead to 2-1.
The B-Mets got that run back in sixth. With two outs, Jayce Boyd launched a pitch more than 400 feet to straight away center field to extend the lead back to two runs at 3-1.
That advantage was extended in the seventh. Ceciliani singled against Nick Rumbelow to start things off and stole second base. After Brandon Nimmo walked, he and Ceciliani each moved up a bag on a double steal. Dilson Herrera struck out at a pitch in the dirt and reached safely on the wild pitch. Both runners advanced on the play. Ceciliani crossed the plate, while Nimmo made it to third and scored on an error by the third baseman, Dan Fiorto, to make the score 5-1
The B-Mets added one more run in the eighth against Nick Goody. Rivera singled with one out and moved to second on a Boyd walk. Jairo Heredia came in and after strikeout gave up a bloop single to Ceciliani to make the Binghamton lead 6-1.
That was more than enough for Peavey (8-1) who won his second straight outing against Trenton. Camarena (0-4) tossed six innings and allowed three runs (two earned) and struck out five. Jon Velasquez struck out the side in a scoreless ninth to close out the victory.
The B-Mets (62-43) plays game three of their four-game set on Saturday at 7:05 PM. RHP Gabriel Ynoa takes the hill for the B-Mets opposite RHP Jaron Long for the Thunder. The Horizons Federal Credit Union Pregame Show, starting at 6:50 PM, can be heard on News Radio 1290 WNBF and on the Binghamton Mets Baseball Network via the TuneIn App.
POSTGAME NOTES: Peavey has allowed two runs and struck out 14 in 15 frames against Trenton this season...Herrera went 0-for-5 and saw his 12-game hitting streak come to an end.

Weigh in on Red River diversionWith spring just around the corner, once again there is concern about flooding in the Red River Basin. What can we do to reduce flood damage?
By: John Finney and Gary Thompson, Agweek
With spring just around the corner, once again there is concern about flooding in the Red River Basin. What can we do to reduce flood damage? Upstream water retention projects are one component of the overall strategy to provide flood protection for everyone in the basin.
Upstream retention not only reduces flooding on the Red River, but also provides local benefits, including improved drainage, less damage to the local infrastructure and natural resource enhancement.
Water managers on both sides of the Red River have been using a variety of technological tools to help locate, design and build retention projects. New hydraulics and hydrologic models, combined with imagery and mapping initiatives such as LIDAR help water managers make educated decisions to make the best use of limited dollars and land availability.
In accordance with the 2014 farm bill, plans are to apply for the Red River Basin to be designated as one of eight critical conservation areas eligible for federal assistance to develop and construct retention projects. These new funds, leveraged with state, regional and local monies will certainly accelerate the ability to move forward with projects now and in the near future.
The joint water management groups in both states have adopted a goal of 20 percent peak flood flow reduction at the Canadian border. Farm bill funding will help us reach that goal.
But, retention projects do not magically appear on the landscape. Each and every one of them requires input from local landowners, farmers, water managers, township and county officials, city councils and conservationists. We all need to work together to find the best solution.
We have to find the land where we can construct retention projects. Public land might be available in some cases, but most will have to come from the private sector.
The Red River Retention Authority invites the public to take a tour of an established impoundment area and talk with people affected by its construction.
The goal of local water managers is to reduce the damage caused by flooding in the Red River Basin. All of the water management organizations in the two states are grassroots, bottom-up type of organizations. Do not hesitate to contact your local water management boards with any suggestions or comments.
Editor's note: Finney and Thompson are co-chairs of the Red River Retention Authority.

text: I realize Phillips has been hitting really well lately, and I know he's a solid above average player, but I am extremely frustrated with seeing him constantly do things that cost them. Tonight it ends up being a 1 run loss, there isn't really an easier double play turn than the one he had with the bases loaded, and he decided to non-shalant it, and the runner ends up beating it out, costing them a run in this one run loss. Again, I realize he's a solid player, and has been hitting really well, and if it was a one time thing it would be different, but this hasn't been an isolated incident with him. He's constantly doing things like not running out of the box, and playing at 100% all the time. Seriously, is it really that much to ask for a guy to run hard 4 times a night with the kind of money they make? When you hit a ball that is questionable, RUN, and if you can't judge any better than he has in the past, run when you think you are sure you hit it out until you see it go over. I'm not saying to get rid of Phillips, he's an extremely talented player, all i'm saying is i'm sick of seeing stupid mental mistakes that he makes that should be easy for him to fix cost them games. Hanley Ramirez was benched for not hustling, and he's certainly a higher profile player than BP.

From the reviews:
"One of the constant challenges faced by computer science faculty is how to tie in the theory of computing with applications. This text attempts to do just that … . Overall, this book is a good undergraduate theory text. … It includes exercises, with software tools to aid in visualization of key ideas. … The exercises are appropriate for an undergraduate-level class. … It is a good text … ." (M. D. Derk, Computing Reviews, December, 2006)
"The book under review shows, logic and automata theory can be combined to provide powerful tools for checking computer code … . There is no doubt that the book was written with great care and that it caters for a real need. … the book is written in a very lively style, which makes reading it quite pleasurable. … many nice applications of automata that are peppered throughout the book."

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Meg Flatley (Townsend, Mass.), a redshirt freshman on the 24th-ranked University of New Hampshire field hockey team, was honored as America East Rookie of the Week on Monday.
Flatley extended her goal-scoring streak to three games last week with a goal against second-ranked Syracuse University (Sept. 7; 3-2 loss) and two goals at the College of the Holy Cross (Sept. 9; 8-3 win).
She leveled the game, 1-1, vs. SU with a tally in the 10th minute, just 68 seconds after the visiting Orange took the lead. At Holy Cross, she gave the Wildcats an early 1-0 lead at 1:08, then tied the score at 2 at 8:29 – 82 seconds after the Crusaders went in front – to spark a 6-0 run. The two goals and four points were both career highs for Flatley.
The 5-foot-7 forward, who joined the squad last year as a walk-on but did not see any game action, has started all five games this season, is tied for the team lead in goals (four) and ranks second in points (nine). With those numbers, Flatley ranks second in the America East conference in both goals and goals per game (0.80) as well as third in both points and points per game (1.80).
Flatley has recorded a point in four of five games this season. She tallied an assist in her collegiate debut Aug. 24 against the University of Massachusetts, and her goal-scoring streak began with a tally Aug. 31 at Brown University.
A UNH Wildcat has been honored as Rookie of the Week each of the last two weeks. Freshman forward Meg Carroll (Mansfield, Mass.) received the accolade Sept. 4.
New Hampshire returns to action this weekend with home games against University of the Pacific (Sept. 14, 7 p.m.) and Northeastern University (Sept. 16, 4 p.m.).

Tianhuang Seal
The carved design on the side of the Seal exploits dark natural veins in the stone to represent a landscape. We see the tiny boat carrying the early eleventh-century poet and calligrapher Su Shi past the Red Cliff. Su Shi's prose-poem recording his trip is one of the most famous in classical Chinese literature, and his original writing was considered a masterpiece of Chinese calligraphy. On the bottom of the seal Qian Song, one of the most influential scholar seal-carvers of the Qing Dynasty, engraved the name of a studio for one of his associates, a man named Chunru, who would have impressed this seal in red seal paste on paintings and calligraphy in his studio. The Seal is both a remarkable example of miniature carving and physical testimony to the relationship between one scholar and another.

Okay, here goes! More playing catch up! Soon we'll be back to the regularly scheduled blogging. At least that's the plan!
Dec 30-Jan 5
Ever year we try to get together with one of my friends to make cookies. Normally this happens before Christmas but with the way things worked out it just didn't happen. We did end up going down and visiting and making cookies and tarts before the new year. We made spritz cookies but then realized the spritz machine required batteries which we didn't happen to have. So we rolled them out and cooked them like sugar cookies. The little man absolutely loved the owl shaped cookies! He also managed to fall and bonk his head while we were there. Why is it that he gets over it so fast and I feel horrible about it for days? Poor kid. He took it pretty well though. Love him!I've been having issues with chiropractors for awhile now. Anyone who knows me knows I left my last one because he was a bit of a jerk. He was one of the best chiropractors I've ever seen so this was frustrating. But NO one tells me or my child that my husband is mean because he doesn't want my 4 month old getting chiropractic care. I finally went and found a new chiropractor. This one seems to have issues getting me in pretty quickly. Schedules me but then when I get there tells me I didn't have an appointment. The person that works the front desk just seems annoyed to be helping me. And to top things off if you haven't been there in 60 days they make you redo all the paperwork including when things first became an issue. I put someday within my first year of life, apparently that wasn't the right answer. Bah, whatever. I'm in search for a new office that feels more welcoming. I'm sure this guy is a fine and dandy chiropractor I just haven't experienced it myself.
My little nephew had his 1st birthday! I can't believe he's already a year old! Crazy how time flies. They had a nice gathering at their house. I made him a neat little storage box with his name mod podged on the top in Seahawk colors. His parents are huge football fans so they loved that. I also gave him a coin set from the year he was born and the Chinese year of the dragon stamps. Awesome little keepsakes for the year he was born. Jan 6-12
This week we started a creative movement class at the YMCA. Little man is really enjoying it. They did a little dance, worked on jumping, did an "obstacle course" where they jump over dots, roll or somersault down a mat, crawl across the mats, walk on a balance beam and run around a cone, to end class we played with a parachute. The little man is really interested in the parachute but a little afraid of it as well, I think as time goes on he'll get more comfortable with it. Little man is really enjoying having the time with other kids and seeing what people are doing. As he sees kids do things he's a little more likely to try it.
We made an unplanned stop at a local park we've never been to before. The little man LOVED the "bounce", aka teeter totter. He had a blast. It was a bit chilly out but we enjoyed a little fresh air!I headed off to the physical therapist finally. I've just been waiting for the new year as I knew that my pelvis was already out of place but I also realized that I didn't want to meet my deductible twice. I have something called Symphysis pubic dysfunction, or SPD; this is where the ligaments that keep your pelvis aligned get too relaxed and it goes out of alignment. For me, it feels like someone is stabbing me when I walk. It's not fun and I had this happen with the little man as well. The PT did seem to help so that's exciting.
It was another MOPS week. We had a speaker in who talked about the various personality types and how to nurture those personalities without changing them. Sadly this would have to be the week that we had to go help out in the little kids room as there weren't enough workers. Bummer as I missed the last two types and I'm certain that my child is one of those.
My dad celebrated his 40th year of working with the company he works for. The company he works for took us out for a nice dinner via a limo ride. Dad could bring five people with him, which is perfect as that meant my mom and then the four of us kids could all go. It was pretty neat to get to go out with the just the siblings and parents, it's rare that we get together without all spouses and kids.
So, I started going to counseling again. I was incredibly relieved to find out that my counselor I saw when I was pregnant with the little man now accepts my insurance. She works on cognitive therapy as well as mindfulness. OH, why do I need a therapist? Because I have crazy anxiety when I am pregnant. Sure I have a little here or there normally, but when pregnant it's just too much. I like to think I'm normally a pretty grounded person. I blame it all on the hormones. I am better this go round, but having someone to talk to and help me learn ways to redirect my thoughts is so very very worth it to me.
We had our 16 week checkup, everything is going well. This is one of the first appointments that the hubby wasn't able to make. We just don't get up early enough to schedule appointments for times that work great for him. The heart rate was a nice 145. The little man and I stopped and had lunch together for the first time as just us before the appointment. It was fun and he was really well behaved (thank goodness since it was only me!).We finally announced our pregnancy to most people. I announced it by posting this lovely picture on Facebook that was taken by Reed Photography, we love her you should check her out if you're in the area.Oh… and it rained… and rained… and rained. So the little man went out and played in the rain puddles for the first time. We went and had dinner with my hubby's cousin and her husband. He had a hockey game following dinner so we went and watched part of it. The little man was glued to the glass! Can't wait to take him to his first Silvertips game! Such a good time!Jan 13-19
We had our second week of creative movement. The little man is enjoying it more and more! He's really enjoying having the teacher show him what to do and trying to do what she says. I hope this says good things about him in school later in life. I have had headaches/migraines on and off since a few days before Christmas. Not much seems to really help them. I did manage to get in a massage which is always nice. It helped my legs and such but my headaches are still just as crazy. (The below picture is just because it's currently one of my favorite pictures of the little man).I went out for a moms night out, we had a game night. We played Bass Ackwards; it's an interesting game, nothing amazing. The goal is to not get to start from finish. You want to guess the wrong answer to the question on the cards. The information is interesting, but the replay value isn't great. More important then the game though? I got to spend a fun evening with some of the girls and that's always nice!
We went and had dinner with my parents and then went out to dinner with some friends at the end of the week. We kept busy. Busy is good.I had hoped to get caught up this week. But life happens and appointments happen. So I'm posting this not quite caught up. SO one more week of catching up and THEN we'll get back to the regular stuff. I hope.

ADL Applauds DOJ's Lawsuit Against the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office
Date: May 11, 2012
Contact: Bill Straus, Arizona ADL Regional Director (602) 274-0991
ADL Applauds DOJ's Lawsuit Against the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office
Phoenix, AZ, May 11, 2012.... The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) today applauded the U.S. Department of Justice's decision to file a lawsuit against the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office in Arizona to stop their discriminatory and unconstitutional law enforcement practices.
Arizona Regional Board Chair, Miriam Weisman and Regional Director Bill Straus said in a statement:
"We are gratified that the DOJ continues to seek legal remedies to the discriminatory policies and racial profiling allegedly carried out by Sheriff Joe Arpaio and the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office against the Latino community. We are saddened that Sheriff Arpaio refuses to accept the results of the DOJ's investigation and has rejected their proposal for an independent monitor that could help his department carry our fair and reasonable reforms."
In April 2008, after receiving numerous complaints from citizens, the ADL wrote a letter to the U.S. Attorney General's Office asking that the DOJ open an investigation into allegations of profiling on the part of the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office.

Market tip: Greek yogurt, which is actually drained yogurt, has a luxurious texture similar to that of sour cream. Look for it at Greek markets, Trader Joe's, and Whole Foods. Or simply spoon 1 quart plain yogurt into a colander lined with cheesecloth. Place the colander in a large bowl and let the yogurt drain in the refrigerator overnight.
