United States Lies, Pearl Harbor, Hiroshima and Nagasaki Destruction and Death
December 12, 2011 Leave a comment
The United States Government has always lied to its citizens with regularity in its history and the bombings and senseless Murder and Destruction at Pearl Harbor, Hiroshima and Nagasaki are no exception.
Yes the Japanese did bomb Pearl Harbor with 2897 Americans killed, 879 wounded, and 26 missing. It was an egregious act of cowardice; however did FDR know it would occur?
Pearl Harbor did President Franklin Delano Roosevelt know of the attack?
There are many who believe that President Franklin Delano Roosevelt did in fact know the attack was imminent. However at the time the USA was in an isolationist frame of mind and wanted no part of the conflict in Europe. This after the great loss of American lives in World War I; there were more than nine million soldiers and civilian deaths in that conflict on both sides.
After World War I the United States had become a country without a moral compass its citizens were only interested in their own lives and were not ready to suffer anymore causalities to another conflict. Remember that WWII started in 1939 and that the United States did not enter the war until the attack by the Japanese on December 7th, 1941 a full two years after the conflict had begun. The United States government wanted to enter World War II, but they needed a reason to get the people of the country to support their plans.
The bombing of Pearl Harbor could not have come at a better time and was seen as a way for FDR and as a byproduct the United States of America, to engage the people of this country in the conflict because of its horrific aftermath.
There were accounts that the United States had not broken the all important Japanese military codes prior to the attack, this was in fact a lie. There are now documents that have been released which paint a very frightening picture.
One out of the more than eighty three messages intercepted by the US Navy which were sent by the Japanese Admiral Yamamoto to his fleet commanders is the most damning which read in part, "…the task force, keeping its movements strictly secret and maintaining close guard against submarines and aircraft, shall advance into Hawaiian waters, and upon the very opening of hostilities shall attack the main force of the United States fleet in Hawaii and deal it a mortal blow…", this was sent November 25th 1941.
A future Presidential hopeful and opponent for FDR in the next election Thomas Dewey became aware that the Japanese code had previously been broken prior to the Pearl Harbor attack. He had hoped to use this against FDR in the 1944 election. His desire was to do a series of political speeches where he would charge that FDR new of the attacks and did nothing to overt the pending doom in Hawaii.
However the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General George Marshall talked to Thomas Dewey and told him that the Japanese were not aware that their code had been broken. Rather than place our American forces in harms way by compromising their intelligence gathering capabilities, Dewey relented and no speeches were given, FDR went on to win the election of 1944.
It was also previously stated that the Japanese Navy operated under strict radio silence this again was another lie otherwise the US Navy would not have intercepted eighty three messages that were sent to the Japanese fleet.
There were also those that were present when FDR heard the news of the attack on Pearl Harbor and they observed, "The President's surprise was not as great as that of other men around him. Nor was the attack unwelcome. It had ended the past months of uncertainty caused by FDR's decision that Japan must be seen to make the first overt move."
It is more than probable that because of this cold calculating mindset that over 2897 American soldiers died needlessly just to give the United States the needed political and national momentum to enter the war.
The Bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki
Why did President Truman order the slaughter of Seventy Thousand people in Hiroshima and another 40 to 70 thousand in Nagasaki and give the United States of America the historical distinction of being the only country in the world which has ever used a Nuclear device to devastate and destroy a nation?
The names were comical, Fat-man and Little Boy but the aftermath of their use in Japan was far from being anything of the sort. Little Boy was dropped on Hiroshima on August 6th, 1945. Fat Man was dropped a few days later on Nagasaki on August 9th, 1945 with their deadly payloads.
But why did the US unleash this untold death and destruction when Japan clearly wanted to surrender? The Soviet's under their leader Joseph Stalin, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and United States President Harry S. Truman all knew that the Emperor of Japan had accepted the terms of an unconditional surrender 19 days before the first atomic bomb was dropped.
President Truman knew the Japanese wanted to surrender however he was not going to allow the Soviet Union to be the peace broker as he feared they would gain the upper hand. He wanted to show the Soviet government and the world at large the destructive power that the United States had in its arsenal the loss of human life was just an afterthought to be dismissed.
From President Truman's own handwritten diary an entry on July 18th, 1945, "Discussed Manhattan (it is a success). Decided to tell Stalin about it. Stalin had told P.M. (Churchill) of telegram from Jap emperor asking for peace…" This was nineteen days before the bombings, he knew yet he pursued the path of death and destruction.
Another diary entry this from an assistant to Secretary of State James F. Byrnes by Walter Brown, the entry from August 3rd, 1945. It was written that Byrnes, Admiral William D. Leahy and President Truman,"agrred [sic] Japas [sic] looking for peace. (Leahy had another report from Pacific) President afraid they will sue for peace through Russia instead of some country like Sweden."
Manhattan Project scientist Leo Szilard recalled what Byrnes thought process was; "(Byrnes) was concerned about Russia's postwar behavior. Russian troops had moved into Hungary and Rumania, and Byrnes thought it would be very difficult to persuade Russia to withdraw her troops from these countries, that Russia might be more manageable if impressed by American military might, and that a demonstration of the bomb might impress Russia."
Yet President Truman bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki even though the Japanese government clearly wanted to surrender, all for the political gain the US would realize.
The United States stated that by dropping these bombs countless American soldiers' lives would be saved. But no saving was needed the Japanese wanted to end the war and they unfortunately engaged the Soviet Union as their emissary, because of this for the first time in the history of the world Nuclear bombs were dropped for no reason other than to strengthen the mighty hand of the United States of America.
As a footnote in regards to the current Middle Eastern conflict in Iraq as well as the problems facing Israel, it is worth noting that the superpowers of the world in 1948 created the current atrocities. Again for personal gain the Middle East was chopped up and artificial countries and borders were created by the superpowers for economic and political reasons. If this had not occurred the war in which we are presently involved in would have never even been started in the first place. If the USA had never placed permanent military installations in Saudi Arabia the Twin Towers would still be part of the New York skyline as well for Osama bin Laden and his hatred for the United States would have never manifested itself within his mind.
When will the superpowers of the world learn, how many have to needlessly die?

Exercise After the reduction in pain, doctors suggest exercises and physiotherapy to avoid the recurrence of the problem. These exercises are mainly aimed at improving your mobility, rectifying your posture and in making the muscles around your lower back strong.

. Designed to correct the underlying problem, not just relieve the symptoms. An effective treatment for herniated disc, degenerative disc, sciatica, facet syndrome, spinal stenosis, Pre/Post surgical patients. Clinical Nutrition There are numerous ways, which healthcare specialists use to assess the unique nutritional needs of an individual which include taking a thorough history, reviewing dietary habits, physical examination and the performance of laboratory tests such as blood, stool and urine analysis. An individualized nutritional approach will promote health and tissue recovery. Specific supplemental recommendations may be provided to help facilitate anabolic recovery of compromised tissues. Special attention may be placed on recommending neuroprotective strategies in those cases where there is neurological compromise or disease. Physiotherapy Physiotherapy if often one of the earliest approaches taken in a physical medicine setting. It can be used to help an individual gain strength, improve flexibility, reduce pain, and promote greater independence. It is commonly used to treat conditions that affect muscles and nerves. One of the primary applications is the rehabilitation from stroke or injury. Physiotherapy approaches include the use of heat, cold, electric stimulation, ultrasound, iontophoresis, traction and massage. Physical Rehabilitation During the physical rehabilitative approach, attention is placed on the health and integrity of bone and soft tissues, biomechanical function of the affected joint or joints, and the patient's psychosocial response. Physical rehabilitation may be used in conjunction with functional restoration techniques such as physical mobilization or manipulation of joints and related tissues. Adjustive techniques often help promote mobility during the healing process while also promoting quicker and more enduring results. Weight Management Weight management refers to the application of methods to help an individual lose weight. This may involve dietary counseling, nutritional supplementation, exercise therapy or recommendations and behavioral counseling. Acupuncture
Steroid Based Treatments Sometimes, the doctors also prescribe epidural or corticosteroid steroid injections to help reduce inflammation in the effected areas.
Spinal Manipulation Joint manipulation is used to help promote an optimum the tissue repair process through the various stages of healing. Tissues tend to recover and remodel consistent with the stresses placed upon them during the healing process. Some movement is required for the tissues to heal strong and flexible enough to allow normal joint movement and to adequately withstand physical loads placed upon the tissue. In each stage of repair, methods are used to lessen pain, reduce extent of injury, aid in remodeling of granulation tissue, break adhesions as they develop, and most important, attempt to prevent chronic joint stiffness and /or a potential chronic pain syndrome from developing. Spinal manipulation is most effective if it is used in combination with muscle therapy, correction and maintenance of proper posture, home and in-office exercises and stretching, and proper work and home ergonomics.

Treatment and prevention This can be cured by treating the cause that lead to sciatica such as slip disc. Doctor's can prescribe painkillers, muscles relaxants, corticosteroids to reduce inflammation. Average amount of exercise should be considered if pain becomes minimal. Therapy sessions are advised to strengthen abdominal and back muscles once the symptoms have minimized.
You then decide to stop using the techniques and fail to consistently change the habits that cause your back pain or
. Reason #1 again. In reality, to change the habits, to correct the structural and general/emotional causes of your sciatica and back pain need only take a few minutes each day to apply.
Medicines The pain can be treated with anti inflammatory non steroidal dugs combined with drugs that relax muscles. Anticonvulsant drugs and Tricyclic antidepressants are also prescribed to reduce pain. These drugs work in two ways - by blocking the sensations in reaching your brain - and by producing endorphins that naturally help reduce pain.
Exercise Therapy Exercise therapy refers to the implementation of exercise with a specific goal in mind. An exercise therapy program may be supervised or unsupervised. Supervised exercise is usually part of a physical rehabilitative program. Patients may be provided with simple exercises, which they can perform at home. Home exercises are often provided to help improve flexibility and restore the strength required to stabilize a joint region. Some exercises are provided to help reduce the risk for injury or re-injury. A spinal stabilization exercise program is often used to strengthen muscles around the spine to reduce excessive or abnormal joint and spinal region movement patterns. Physical Therapy Physical therapy often includes the application of modalities such as ultrasound, electrical stimulation, heat, cold and iontophoresis in an attempt to reduce pain and inflammation. In some cases a combination of these approaches may be used. Manual approaches such as joint mobilization or joint manipulation may be applied during the course of physical therapy. The patient may be entered into a progressive exercise program to improve flexibility, muscular strength and endurance. The patient may be referred to an outside facility for aquatic therapy. Work Injury Rehabilitation Evaluation of the injured worker may require a functional capacity evaluation (FCE). The findings serve as a baseline of physical performance capacity at the workplace. If significant deficits are found a course of work conditioning/work hardening may be implemented. This involves the implementation of postural retraining and a course of specific exercises. Onsite or simulated job analysis may be recommended to help design the best therapeutic approach. An ergonomic or workplace assessment may be implemented to provide further insight into the rehabilitative requirements and to assist in the implementation of preventive measures. The practice of chiropractic and acupuncture is based on providing care without drugs or surgery. At LSRC, our doctors are well trained in disease prevention, clinical nutrition and the science of tissue recovery and repair. Our doctors understand the steps required to promote maximum musculoskeletal tissue recovery and repair and return you to an active lifestyle! "

Treatments Bed Rest The most common
treatment suggested by doctors is bed rest. It helps in relieving pain. However, only taking bed rest is not going to solve the problem fully. You should combine rest with physical activity that is enough to keep you active without aggravating the pain.

For expert advice, tips and techniques to eliminate back pain visit Back Pain Advice
Alternative Sciatica Treatment Many alternative
treatments like yoga, acupuncture, acu-pressure and biofeedback therapy also exist. These alternative treatments are very effective in curing your sciatica problem.
Here goes... Reason #1: Your sciatica remains for the primary reason of habit. No you don't have habits that you must change like your posture or how you lift. Habit relates to the internal mechanisms of your body. Habits form because of consistent and repetitive acts.
Surgery Surgery also brings relief to patients. Surgery is performed when the pain does not subside even after rest, medications or other forms of treatment and the nerve compression leads to other problems like extreme weakness and bladder incontinence etc
It has been proposed that acupuncture may stimulate a local immune response and also contribute to the release of special chemicals within the central nervous system referred to as endorphins and enkephalins, both, which are natural pain reducing compounds. Acupuncture has been used by millions of American patients and performed by thousands of physicians, dentists, acupuncturists, and other practitioners for relief or prevention of pain and for a variety of health conditions. After reviewing the existing body of knowledge, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration removed acupuncture needles from the category of ""experimental medical devices"" and now regulates them just as it does other devices, such as surgical scalpels and hypodermic syringes, under good manufacturing practices and single-use standards of sterility. Over the years, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has funded a variety of research projects on acupuncture, including studies on the mechanisms by which acupuncture may produce its effects, as well as clinical trials and other studies. Dietary, lifestyle, and exercise recommendations may accompany the acupuncture approach.
If you have had your sciatica for over a month (yes it only takes 31 days to form a habit) then your body believes it is perfectly normal to have sciatica and back pain. To remove your back pain and
, you need to change these habits. The big question is how?
Who is right and who is wrong. In fact they are all right and all wrong. Back pain and especially
is a combination of factors. Tight muscles, weak muscles, joints not moving correctly and inflammation - these all create your pain.
You also have emotional stress, general health, and fatigue levels that are just as important. To have a complete and permanent relief from sciatica and back pain, you need to address all these areas. Which leads you to reason number 3...
It is the nerve that starts at the buttocks and runs down the back of the leg. It is a combination of multiple spinal nerves and is about an inch long in the buttocks. Generally, when people start complaining about pain in the sciatic nerve, it's not the sciatic nerve that created this pain, instead, it's a problem of the nerve being pinched when it leaves the spine.
Sciatica... you know the pain that travels down your leg and makes life so horrible at times. Your back pain is affecting your life; you can't do so many activities you once could. You may have sought treatment from many different practitioners, you may even have purchased many products off the internet... but your
Treatment At Home There are many home based
treatment too. Some of them are very effective in curing your
pain quickly. For example ice treatment is very effective in controlling sciatica pain if it is used with in 48 hours of the onset of pain. Movement is also a good option in reducing pain. Doing exercises that stretch piriformis muscles are helpful in controlling
pain. Balancing your pelvis region properly also helps in controlling pain. You can do this by lying down on the bed to check whether the balance is properly distributed on both sides.
Treatment from a practitioner will not change habits. Why? It takes 31 days to change a habit. Do you know of any practitioner that does (or willing to) work 31 days in a row? Probably not.
Reason #2: Most sciatica and back pain treatments fail as they only address one aspect of your problem. You will see some practitioners, and many internet sites, saying your problem is due to muscles. Then other will say it is joints. Then more who say it is inflamed tissues. And so on.
Reasons for sciatic nerve pain There are various causes that lead to sciatic nerve pain, but the major reasons that can lead to this type of pain are: 1. Excessive pressure on the sciatic nerve: Sciatic nerve pain can be a result of unwanted pressure put on the body due to improper posture, strain in the muscles, pregnancy, overweight, using a very soft mattress for sleeping purpose. It can also have excessive pressure on the sciatic nerve due to slip disc. Some cases of sciatic nerve pain have been recorded by due to the compression of the sciatic nerve by a tumor encircling the spinal cord in the lower back. 2. Degenerative arthritis: It is also a common cause of sciatica. Degenerative arthritis also known as Osteoarthritis can be identified by certain specific characteristics like creation of bone spurs or a set of protruding bone which presses on the nerve roots. Older people sometimes may develop a medical condition called spinal stenosis, where the nerve is compressed due to narrowing of space in and around the spinal cord.
It is not strength of will or courage that wins the day... it is consistency. A famous quote from Winston Churchill about winning World War 2. It can be applied to winning your war against
and back pain. Learn to consistently target the areas causing your back pain and
then... it will disappear once and for all.
Sciatica occurs due to the compression at the base of the spine. This compression leads to pain in the lower back and gluetal region of the body. This pain travels to ankle, calf, thighs and knee. Real Sciatica happens when the pain reaches the knees and the ankles.
actually is the pain that moves through the sciatic nerve - the longest nerve in your body. This nerve starts from your spinal cord to your hips and down to the leg. The pain therefore moves along this nerve and the parts of body it connects.
actually may not be problem in itself. It may have other inherent causes which are connected to the sciatic nerve like herniated disk.

Myths are common in just about every topic you can think of, including job search. These are the kinds of myths that make people do things that are not to their advantage in any way. Avoiding job-search myths will help you maintain your trajectory toward gainful employment and a fulfilling career. Here are some of my favorites:
Myths are common in just about every topic you can think of, including job search. These are the kinds of myths that make people do things that are not to their advantage in any way. Avoiding job-search myths will help you maintain your trajectory toward gainful employment and a fulfilling career. Here are some of my favorites:
Myth 1: Suspend your job search during holidays and summer.
The myth here is that everyone in the world is on vacation. It might be late summer, but business goes on. People go on vacation any time of the year, but then they return ... usually a week later. The pace of business might slow down a bit, but business doesn't stop. Neither should you.
Myth 2: Applying for more jobs means you'll have more opportunities.
I have seen this strategy in action enough to know that the result of mass-applying for everything that moves is a losing plan. Focusing on finding specific opportunities via specific networking contacts is a winner — a strategy I've seen proven many times over.
Myth 3: If you are currently employed, don't worry, just be happy.
The days of working for 20-plus years with the same employer are over. We live in an age of fast-moving events, and companies are making changes more quickly. Companies go in and out of business. They get bought out. Waiting until something changes, like a layoff, is a great disadvantage to you.
If it's OK for business to make changes, it's OK for you to prepare for those potential changes. For example, building your professional network of industry contacts should be a priority when you are gainfully employed. Stay focused on your job and career, but don't get complacent. Nothing is forever.
Myth 4: Start your job search immediately after the severance package runs out.
Too often I've seen folks with severance packages take "time off," as if a severance package is a special vacation. It isn't, and it will run out quicker than you think. Your goal should be to find another position and bank as much of your severance pay as possible.
Myth 5: Veteran status means you'll find work faster.
I'm a veteran, but I don't expect someone to hire me just because I'm a veteran. Companies might look to attract veterans as a part of their recruitment programs, and that's excellent news for those who have served our country.
However, you still have to be qualified and present yourself as the best candidate for the employer. Just being a veteran isn't an automatic qualifier by any means. I've talked to corporate folks who oversee these "Hire a Veteran" programs, and they complain about some veterans who have a sense of entitlement. Thank you for your service, but prove you're the best candidate and you'll get the position.

What is a Concatenative Language
Recently there has been some discussion on the concatenative discussion group about the term "concatenative language" and what it actually means. In this post I provide my definition and attempt to deconstruct it.
The canonical example of a concatenative language is the Joy programming language by Manfred von Thun. I consider my language Cat to be concatenative as well. Factor by Slava Pestov is another language that describes itself as concatenative. For more examples of concatenative languages see the concatenative wiki and Wikipedia.
One problem that we have in the concatenative community currently has is lack of a rigorous definition. This makes it hard to determine whether a given language is concatenative or not, and makes any formal study difficult. The following is my attempt to provide a rigorous definition for a concatenative programming language:
"A concatenative programming language is language in which terms correspond to functions and in which the juxtaposition of terms denotes the composition of functions.".
For those readers not scared away yet, allow me to elaborate. A term is a valid and complete syntactic phrase that can be generated from the concrete (syntactic) grammar of a language. For example in Scheme "(f a 5)" is a term, as is "a" or "5" or "f". However, "(f" is not a term. Juxtaposition is just a fancy way of saying "two terms side by side". A concatenative language differs from the functional programming language paradigm where terms correspond to values (including functions) and the fundamental operation is function application. In the Lambda calculus for example -- which is the basis for functional programming -- all terms correspond to values, function application, or function abstraction (i.e. lambda expressions). However, in a concatenative language all terms correspond to functions on a tuple (e.g. a single stack, a pair of stacks, a pair of stacks plus a dictionary, or even a deque if you are really masochistic), or the composition of functions (which yields a new function, so is really a function).
So for example a literal term such as "42" in Joy or Cat is in fact a function that maps a stack to a new stack that is a copy of the original with the value 42 added to the top. For most practical purposes a programmer may think of the term "42" as being equivalent to the value "42". This in fact aids computations, but it can confuse the theory a bit. To have a correct and formal understanding of programming languages we have to understand the term/value distinction. IN very down-to-earth terms: the operation that pushes a value on the stack is different from the value that is on the stack.
At this point, some people may say, hey what about quotations? In Joy and Cat a quotation is a function that yields a new stack with a function on the top. This is consistent with what I have been saying.
While in theory a concatenative language does not require a stack, in practice most concatenative languages are stack-based, and at the same time most stack-based languages can be modeled formally as a concatenative language.
An interesting side note: it is not strictly neccessary to evaluate a concatenative language like Joy or Cat using a stack, it is simply convenient. One could for example devise an evaluator (e.g. an interpreter) that used term rewriting.
In practical terms a concatenative language is not really different from a functional language, except that there is less nesting of functions. Rather than writing
(f0 (f1 (f2 ... (fn x) ...))
We could write:
x fn ... f2 f1 f0
One of the interests of concatenative languages is that it is a formal computation model that closely models the actual processor of a lot of computers. It also corresponds nicely to both imperative and functional reasoning about code.
One interesting property of some concatenative languages that has me particularly interested is that we can replace any referentially transparent sub-sequence of terms with a new function that is defined as that sub-sequence. For example "a b c d a b c" can be replaced with "f d f" where "f" is defined as "a b c". This make automated code refactoring and analysis much easier. Hence the moniker chosen by Slava for his language Factor. This is also why I am actively studying the usage of concatenative languages for code size optimization (let me know if this interests you, and I'll tell you more).
I think that it may benefit the community to distinguish between pure point-free concatenative languages (e.g. those with no environment and control structures such as Joy and Cat) and those with an explicit environment (e.g. Postscript and Forth), as is done in the functional community.
Hopefully this blog entry didn't get too esoteric for my readers. Maybe I'll write about some neat C++ hacks next time. :-)

CULTURE- ART FEATURE- Family matters: Alan Berliner's father figuring
In filmmaker Alan Berliner's 2001 eulogy for his father, Oscar, the subject of Berliner's Emmy award-winning 1996 documentary, Nobody's Business, he remarked, "Observing my father over the years taught me to see every life as an equation." What we learn in the funny and poignant Nobody'sBusiness is Berliner's dad was one tough problem with no interest in being solved.
Scheduled for the first night of this year's Virginia Film Festival, Nobody's Business is an utterly riveting examination of family, parent-child relationships, and generational differences. It's also a masterpiece (regular readers may not recognize that word as part of my vocabulary) of innovative filmmaking with a pitch-perfect editing.
Berliner splices talking-head interviews (shot in extreme close-up for added intimacy), old black-and-white newsreel footage, family snapshots, home movies, and symbolic images– trees, boxing matches, sewing machines– to create a seamless visual experience that engages viewers for 60 dazzling minutes.
The soundtrack is equally inventive, combining interviews with sounds related to time (the ticking of a second hand, the tock of a metronome, the hum of a film projector's progress) and bells (an alarm clock, a timer's ding, a boxing bell). One particularly effective sequence features voiceovers of Berliner's parents talking about their divorce while newsreel footage shows a 1950s-style bungalow crashing into the ocean while the ground beneath it crumbles.
At the heart of Nobody's Business is Oscar Berliner, a hardscrabble man adamantly opposed to admitting an inch of specificity about his life. When the younger Berliner, pushes, all he gets from his father is "Who cares?" "N-O, no," and "It's nobody's business!" Early in the film, incredulous at his lack of interest, Alan persists in telling his father about the family's European roots, and Oscar informs him that if that's what this film is about, it will be "a flop."
And so father and son spar, as fathers and sons have always sparred. Like Cecil McDonald's photographs at Second Street Gallery, Nobody's Business is specific to Berliner's own family, yet it explores issues with which all viewers can empathize. A cousin describes Alan and Oscar's relationship as "an irresistible force meeting an immovable object." Yet, despite Oscar's can't-be-bothered attitude, an underlying current of love, respect, and tenderness charges through the vibrant film.
As another cousin explains, family is "when one of us pisses the other off, and we accept it."
Alan Berliner will be on hand to discuss Nobody's Business when it screens Thursday, November 1.
Filmmaker Alan Berliner screens and discusses Nobody's Business, at 7:15pm November 1 at the Regal Downtown. He also screens The Family Album at Vinegar Hill at 10am November 2, and Wide Awake at the Regal Downtown at 10:15pm oon November 2. In addition, the University of Virginia Art Museum's New Media Gallery features Berliner's short films, November 3-December 22. 800-882-3378. vafilm.com.

Love Island winners face biggest test outside villa
Samantha O'Connor
Seasons change, but there is a chance that summer love may last. The inaugural season of Love Island came to a mushy end on Wednesday as Zac Mirabelli and Elizabeth Weber were crowned the favourite couple in the Fijian villa, winning the $100,000 grand prize and the relationship they had been looking for.
The 22-year-old Chicago-based grocery store cashier and the 24-year-old New York-based advertising executive had coupled up on Day 1 in the villa, and over the course of five weeks, viewers watched their blissful connection blossom as Zac asked Elizabeth to be his girlfriend on Day 11 and they exchanged "I love you's" on Day 25.
But while the summer series is over, their real-life relationship has just begun. Now that the lovebirds are heading home with perfect tans and a lump sum in their pockets, former islanders are weighing in on whether they think the couple — as well as the other finalists — have what it takes for their long-distance relationships to last outside the comfort of the televised villa.
"People have really enjoyed what they had going on," Season 1 contestant Eric Hall said of the pair. The Burlington-based tattoo shop manager, who failed to find love this season as the only Canadian contestant, joined Love Island UK stars Adam Collard and Ellie Brown in examining the trials the young couples could potentially face as they head into the real world.
"When you're outside of the villa, there are a lot of tests," Collard explained from experience, as he ended his relationship with former co-star Zara McDermott in February.
"Maybe that's why we think that couples like Elizabeth and Zac could potentially be the strongest couple, but they've had no tests from the outside, where Ray (Gantt) and Caro (Viehweg) have had a few people come in and try and get them. That's more like real life. We are going to have people come in and test the relationship."
Newcastle's Brown moved to London to be with her boyfriend Charlie Blake following their season last summer but later parted ways, with an announcement to their fans on Instagram.
"It's no good having a Plain Jane relationship in there, because you're living in a little bubble on an island where there are all good vibes, but that's not real life. Yes, they've been the favourite to win but that's not a realistic relationship," she said.
"For Adam and I, both of our partners were down south and we were up north. We ended up living together. It didn't work out, but we still did. We tried."
The stunning villa in Fiji may have offered the couples a secluded haven to get to know each other and ultimately fall in love, but Hall is adamant that only time will tell if each contestant will put in the work to maintain their bonds as they head back to their hometowns across the country.
"I also feel like even if you have experience being in a long-distance relationship, it's just a much different scenario when you become a public figure. I think that Ray and Caro will have what it takes to put that effort in and even do appearances with one another. It will be a real test for everyone to see who puts the effort in and who stays loyal," he said.
Love Island US has been renewed for a second season and the dating series will return with a new batch of islanders next summer.

Don't Give Up On Jonathan Broxton
By Tommy Rancel //
Even before his days as the closer for the Los Angeles Dodgers, Jonathan Broxton was among the few relief aces in baseball. In 364.1 career innings of work, Broxton has a strikeout per nine innings rate (K/9) of 11.86, a walk per nine innings rate (BB/9) of 3.56, and a home run per nine innings rate (HR/9) of 0.52. Looking back in major league history, only Broxton and Billy Wagner have pitched more than 340 relief innings with a K/9 more than 11.5, a BB/9 less than 4.0, and a HR/9 less than 1.0.
In 2010, Broxton is doing more of the same. His K/9 is once again hovering around 11.0 (11.41). His BB/9 (3.42) and HR/9 (0.38) are actually less than his career levels. His 2.37 FIP (fielding independent pitching) is the fifth best among National League closers.
Everything is good, right? Wrong.
Just last week, Broxton was removed from his role as the Dodgers' closer. His overall numbers look stellar, but in recent weeks things have not gone well for the 26-year-old. Since July 1, he has allowed 12 runs on 14 hits – including the only two home runs he has yielded all season. He gave up just eight runs in the first three months of the season. Add in Hong-Chih Kuo's impressive numbers (1.95 FIP), and you can't really fault Joe Torre for making a move. That said, it is not time to jump ship on Broxton.
Currently, Broxton owns a 3.42 ERA. That is a full run more than his FIP. That's largely due to all the additional baserunners getting on with hits. In 46.1 innings this year, he has allowed 44 hits. He allowed 44 hits all of last year in 76 innings. The good news is that of the 44 hits given up in 2010, 34 of them have been singles.
A groundball pitcher (46.1% career groundball rate), Broxton's batting average on balls in play (BABIP) of .364 is absurdly high. His career BABIP is .325, while the league average is around .300. Even with a career number that is regularly above the league norm, a .364 BABIP is just ridiculous for a guy with Broxton's stuff.
Speaking of stuff, it seems Broxton's dominating combo of mid-90s fastball and high-80s slider has been less effective of late. Before July 1, his fastball registered a strike 67.4% of the time; the slider 78.1%. Since then, his strike percentage on the heater is down to 60.5%, and the slider to 67.3%.
If the Dodgers are continuing to use Broxton, they must feel he is healthy. His velocity readings have also remained steady through his struggles. With that said, Broxton's troubles seem like an easy fix from the outside looking in. Whether it be something mechanical or mental, or maybe just a bounceback in luck, the big righty should rebound at some point. Keep him rostered as a high-strikeout setup man, and hope he wins his closer job back soon.

Remove dirt, grease and silicones from vinyl or leather surfaces with Interior clean. Paint or lacquer with Interior Prep.
The unique coating actually penetrates the surface and changes the pigmentation. When finished the grain of vinyl or leather is intact, it does not crack or peel. Afterwards, leather can be fed with hide food and will retain its natural aroma.
Preparation is simple:
– Clean the interior by removing dirt, grease and silicones with VinylKleen.
– Dampen a clean, soft, lint free cloth with VinylPrep and wipe over the surface to be treated to remove all traces of any other previously applied products which might impair the bonding of the liquid plastic. This should leave the surface slightly tacky.
Do not touch the surface again at the stage as it may become contaminated again.
– If treating semi-rigid, polythene and polypropylene plastics it is essential to use Adhesionaid before applying Liquid Plastic.
Allow Vinylprep to dry before spraying. Shake the can thoroughly and apply a thin coat of Adhesion aid.
Allow Adhesionaid to dry (12 minutes at 20 degree C) before applying Liquid Plastic.
– Spray Liquid Plastic for permanent, colourfast and weatherproof transformation.
Check a small test area first before applying. After 15 minutes test by placing sticky tape on applied area. Upon removal there should be no liquid Plastic on tape.
Apply in mist coats only, allowing 5-10 minutes flash off time between coats.
Depending on the original colour between 2 and 3 evenly applied coats should cover the substrate.
Do no attempt to cover in one coat or apply in thick coats.
Liquid Plastic can be handled after 10-15 minutes and fully cures in 16-20 hours depending on the ambient temperature and humidity. Heat will reduce the drying times.
High humidity or damp conditions can lead to poor adhesion and/or a blooming effect.

The Houston Dynamo signed Jamaican international central defender Jermaine Taylor on Wednesday, adding to a long list of Reggae Boyzz who have plied their trade in MLS.
Jamaica has certainly sent some gems this way, too. Take, for example, the following:
Damani Ralph: Bagged 22 goals in 55 games for the Chicago Fire after breaking the rookie scoring record with 11 tallies in 2003.
Wolde Harris: Scored 50 goals over a six-year stint with the Colorado Rapids and the New England Revolution.
Tyrone Marshall: Now in his 14th MLS season, Marshall has won two MLS Cups, two Supporters' Shields, two Western Conference Championships and two US Open Cups.
Omar Cummings: Last year Cummings tallied a career-high 14 goals, adding to his overall haul of 30 in four seasons. He also has 19 career assists to his name.
Andy Williams: An RSL original, Williams was the Claret-and-Cobalt's first selection in the 2004 Expansion Draft. He owns rings for the MLS Cup, Supporters' Shield and the US Open Cup.
Donovan Ricketts: The LA goalkeeper is comparatively new to MLS, but he's certainly made his mark, collecting both Supporters' Shield and Goalkeeper of the Year honors last season.
But who's the most impressive? Who's the greatest Jamaican player in MLS history? Let us know!

Univ. of Southern Maine Student Awarded EPA Research Grant
Release Date: 10/08/2008
Contact Information: David Deegan, (617) 918-1017
(Boston, Mass. – Oct. 8, 2008) – A student from the University of Southern Maine studying public exposure to two carcinogens was chosen as one of two students in New England and 22 nationwide to receive a Greater Research Opportunities fellowship to complete graduate and undergraduate degrees.
Jamie Young of Portland, Maine is studying potential exposure of the general public to hexavalent chromium and arsenic, two environmental pollutants known to be lung carcinogens. The research will focus on developing a model for understanding the toxic interactions between these environmental contaminants.
Another four students in New England and 32 nationwide received an EPA STAR fellowship to complete their masters or doctorate degrees and work on solutions to important environmental challenges.
"These remarkable young people are doing research that will help create a cleaner, healthier environment," said Robert Varney, regional administrator of EPA's New England office. "We are proud to help these fellows pursue the kind of studies that can make an environmental difference."
EPA supports several fellowship programs as a way to address our country's environmental workforce needs. EPA's STAR graduate fellowship program supports some of the nation's most promising masters and doctoral candidates. A total of 879 applicants competed this year for 32 fellowships.
EPA's Greater Research Opportunities fellowship program helps build environmental studies programs at universities with limited funding for research and development. A total of 156 applicants competed this year for 22 fellowships. Several former fellows from this program now work for EPA, including a chemist in the Office of Pesticide Programs, and a marine biologist in the Office of Research and Development.
Since the fellowship program began in 1995, EPA has awarded more than 2,200 fellowships. All applications for EPA's fellowship programs are peer reviewed. Graduate fellows receive up to $37,000 a year to complete their degrees. The undergraduate program pays tuition and a stipend for the junior and senior years of study and includes a summer internship at an EPA facility. The undergrad fellowship provides up to $17,000 per year of academic support and up to $7,500 of internship support for summer.
EPA is now accepting applications from students for GRO undergraduate fellowships. Applicants must be U.S. citizens or be lawfully admitted to the U.S. for permanent residence.

The weather was wonderful today and the DOR came out to ride. The horse guardian is part of the SunSation Drill Team and I needed to help her and Chez Beau practice.
It was my job to go whizzing by Beau while he had to keep going the same speed. I whipped around him in all sorts of directions...it was fun.
The I partnered up with him to help him on his quadrille parttern. I liked it because the DOR had to concentrate on where Beau was and being in the right position instead of messing with my mouth! She even had to look some where else other than between my ears at the ground right in front of my nose.
I even worked on the pattern with Beau while he carried a flag. Not my favorite thing and I gave him lots of space. I have heard that flags have been know to try and eat horses. I was also a bit confused because a flapping flag means I am either supposed to hurry up or yeild some part of my body. In this instance I was supposed to keep the same speed and travel on a certain path, regardless what the flag was doing. I tell you humans expect some darn silly things.
The DOR asked me to give a try at carrying the flag. At first I wasn't even going near it. I did finally give it a valiant try, I did not like it at all but I know when the DOR asks me to do really tough things I always get extra treats.
I ended the afternoon by having the DOR practice ponying a horse. We ponied Beau and the Horse Guardian rode with her eyes closed. I am going to start ponying Marvelous Marvin several times a week to get him ready to return to his job at the mountain.
The DOR is going to be sore tomorrow I bet, she posted the entire time we trotted a good hour.
She was so pleased with our ride I got a whole handful of treats.
Enjoy your day and don't forget to hug your DOR!

Two gunmen invaded a Nordstrom Rack clothing store in California on Thursday night and took 14 employees captive, sexually assaulting one, stabbing another and locking the detainees in a storage room for hours, police said.
The gunmen were nowhere to be found by the time police entered the Los Angeles store shortly after 2 a.m. on Friday and rescued the employees.
The armed invasion at Nordstrom Rack at the Promenade at Howard Hughes Center on Thursday in the middle-class Westchester district of Los Angeles was treated as a robbery, said Los Angeles police spokesman Lieutenant Andy Neiman.
But it was unclear if the suspects absconded with any cash and police could not immediately say if they stormed the store or emerged from hiding after closing time.
The Promenade, located next to a major freeway, is an outdoor shopping center with restaurants, stores, a cinema and a glow-in-the-dark indoor mini-golf center.
Police became aware of the invasion after an employee at Nordstrom Rack called a loved one to ask him to report to police that two men armed with handguns were inside the store after closing time, which is 10 p.m. local time, Neiman said.
Officers who arrived at the scene about an hour after the store's closing time saw a man come out of the store and run back inside, police said. Shortly afterward, another man leaving the store with a woman also spotted officers and retreated as he forced her back inside.
Officers became concerned that hostages were being held in the store, and a police SWAT team was called.
The SWAT team entered the store shortly after 2 a.m. and found the employees, 13 women and a man. M ost were l ocked inside a storage room in the rear of the store, and a couple of them were found in a bathroom, police said.
At the height of the police response, there were dozens of officers at the scene and it was unclear how the two suspects evaded police while fleeing the store.
"If the suspects are there when SWAT gets there, it's pretty unusual for them to get away," Neiman said. But he added that the mall is large with a lot of access points.
"It's possible that they eluded or exited the building prior to us establishing a complete perimeter," he said.
A white SUV was seen hurtling out of the shopping center at high speed when officers first arrived, and a similar vehicle was later found in the neighboring community of Culver City, police said.
Police were running the plates on the vehicle, which may have been used by accomplices of the two armed men who entered the store, or may have no connection to the crime, Neiman said.
Aside from the person who was sexually assaulted, another of the employees was stabbed, Los Angeles police spokeswoman Richard French said.
Both were treated and released after a SWAT team reached the employees, who officers had initially believed were being held hostage, he said. Police planned to release surveillance video from the shopping center in an attempt to find the suspects.

What's Up February 2010: Galileo's first telescopic view of Jupiter
This month we celebrate the 400th anniversary of Galileo's first telescopic view of Jupiter and its 4 largest moons.
Transcript:What's Up for February?
Jupiter's moons.
Jupiter's largest moons were first seen 400 years ago in early 1610.
Hello, and welcome. I'm Jane Houston Jones at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California.
On the seventh of January, 1610 in Padua, Italy, Galileo looked up above the constellation Orion. He aimed his telescope at the well-known starry wanderer, the planet Jupiter, which was near Orion that night.
What he saw through his telescope startled him and marked the beginning of modern astronomy.Jupiter was not just one object, as he wrote and drew in his journal. "There are three stars in the heavens moving about Jupiter, as Venus and Mercury around the sun," he wrote.
Galileo's January 7 observation showed three stars. The one star to the west was Ganymede. And to the east there were two objects.One was the moon Callisto. And the other was a tight pairing of Io and Europa.
Io and Europa appeared so close together they looked like one object in Galileo's modest telescopic view.
On January 8 he saw a different lineup altogether. There were three stars on one side of the planet.Io was the moon closest to the planet, followed by Europa and Ganymede.
Two cloudy nights and two additional observations later, on January 13 Galileo identified a fourth object orbiting Jupiter. The arrangement this night turned out to be Europa on the east and Ganymede, Io and Callisto on the west.
On January 15 all four stars were seen on one side of the planet.
Everyone who aims a modest telescope, or even binoculars, at Jupiter will see the same view that Galileo did.
The views of tiny moons orbiting the king of the planets will surprise and delight all who look up.
Jupiter is hard to see in the evening sky this month. But northern hemisphere observers may see Jupiter and Venus close together, low on the southwestern horizon, on Valentine's Day.
Then it will be a few months' wait until Jupiter becomes visible in the morning sky.
By August you can once again view Jupiter and the four Galilean moons after dinner or as soon as the sun sets and the stars come out.
NASA's Galileo Mission, which ended in 2003, changed the way we look at our solar system. It found evidence of subsurface saltwater on Europa, Ganymede and Callisto and intense volcanic activity on Io.
NASA's JUNO Mission will launch in 2011 on a mission to study Jupiter. And the Europa-Jupiter System Mission, a joint mission of the European Space Agency and NASA, is slated to launch in 2020. It will primarily study Jupiter's moons Europa and Ganymede and Jupiter's magnetosphere.

That's all for this month. I'm Jane Houston Jones.

Luminous Intensity
The luminous intensity of a light source is defined as the radiated power per solid angle, weighted by the spectral sensitivity of the eye. Or, with other words, as the luminous flux per solid angle. Adding up the light intensity in candelas over the entire solid angle in steradian (in maths: the integral of light intensity over the solid angle) delivers the light output in lumens. The light intensity can be increased if the radiation not evenly illuminates the surrounding space. For example: reflectors or lenses focus the emitted light of a light emitting diode on a certain region. In this region the light intensity increases whereas it decreases in the outlying regions.
Base unit is the candela (cd). It is a photometric unit and a measure for the strength of the light perception caused by the received radiation in the human eye.

Decree issued earlier this month imposes prison sentences for insulting rulers online
The United Arab Emirates has "effectively closed the country's remaining forum for free speech" with a decree issued earlier this month that tightened the law on online dissent, Human Rights Watch said on Wednesday.
The US-allied UAE, a Gulf trading and tourism hub and big oil producer, has not seen the serious unrest that has toppled four Arab heads of state since early last year. But it has shown little tolerance of open dissent, and more than 60 members of an Islamist group have been detained since the start of the year.
The decree by President Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed al-Nahayan imposes prison sentences for anyone who derides or caricatures the Gulf Arab country's rulers or state institutions on the web, the state news agency WAM reported on November 12.
"The UAE's cybercrimes decree reflects an attempt to ban even the most tempered criticism," said Joe Stork, deputy Middle East director at Human Rights Watch.
"The determination to police and punish online dissent, no matter how mild, is incompatible with the image UAE rulers are trying to promote of a progressive, tolerant nation."
A source close to the UAE government said on Wednesday the decree aimed to address technological advances in communications that could affect the rights and beliefs of people.
"This decree does not restrict freedom of expression, which is guaranteed by the UAE constitution," the source said. "The decree represents an extension of legislation to cover a wide variety of potential offences in many fields, including terrorism, human trafficking, money laundering and identity theft."
WAM said the amendments "stipulate penalties of imprisonment on any person who creates or runs an electronic website or uses any information technology medium to deride or damage the reputation or stature of the state or any of its institutions".
This included the president, the vice president, any of the rulers of the seven emirates that make up the UAE, crown princes, deputy rulers, the national flag, the national anthem, the emblem of the state or any of its symbols.
Social networking sites have enlivened public discourse in the UAE, a major oil exporter and business hub, where state media are tightly controlled and freedom of speech restricted.
People across UAE society, from ruling family members to ministers, government supporters and dissidents, make use of sites such as Twitter and Facebook.
The amendments announced on November 12 cover a wide range of offences, including outlawing the use of the Internet for human trafficking and prostitution.
But they include jail terms for "any person publishing any information, news, caricatures or any other kind of pictures that would pose threats to the security of the state and to its highest interests or violate its public order," said WAM.
In addition, anyone who uses the Internet "to call for demonstrations, marches and similar activities without a license being obtained in advance from the competent authorities" could also face imprisonment.
Human Rights Watch said the decree's vaguely worded provisions provide a legal basis to prosecute and jail people who use information technology to criticise senior officials, demand political reforms or organise unlicensed demonstrations.
"Although some provisions are aimed at preventing the proliferation of racist or sectarian views online, the principal effect of the law is severe restrictions on the rights to free expression and free association and assembly," the New York-based watchdog said.

Her grandmother's natural way of beautifying and healing herself ended up being the inspiration behind Hora's turn to the holistic world.
Before that, she was a fashion designer for seven years, working in New York City.
But after years of corporate work and a backpacking trip to South America, she returned to Brooklyn with a new mission.
"I just wanted to live a more holistic life," she said. "My entire 20s was spent in the office, every night, on weekends and one day I said, 'I can't spend my entire life here.'"
After she quit her job and spent a year and a half in South America, she returned with a different perspective.
"When I got back I said I don't know if I could work in an office ever again, I don't know if I could be constricted like that anymore," Hora said.
That thinking led her to follow her holistic calling, conjured up from memories of her grandmother. "Growing up she'd always be in her room making stuff and some people believed it was witchcraft but I was fascinated by it," she said.
Hora, 31, started Veda Holistics a year ago. Working out of a space in the Namaste Yoga and Tranquility Center, she offers facials and waxing while maintaining a focus on natural techniques.
"I look at the person, I look at the lifestyle, their diet and we talk about what they need," she said. "I mix a few custom things for each client." Her consultations make her treatments personalized to each individual and she wants it to be a personal experience.
Currently, Hora is also studying to become a herbalist with plans to create her own skin care line.
"I'm excited; I feel like I have so many possibilities and I just want to do things in the most pure, natural way," said Hora.
