If you read this, you must also read 'Out of Captivity' by Mark Consalves. I'm also going to read another by Clara Rojas. The lives of all three intersect in the Colombian jungle during 5 years of captivity. Unbelievable conditions and treatment that bring out both the best and worst of humanity. Very interesting to compare and contrast their versions of the events.

Malicious hackers in recent weeks have infiltrated computer systems at universities in the U.S. and worldwide, leading to questions about the security of scientific research data, according to an official at the U.S. National Science Foundation.
The systems were located at universities and research facilities that operate high-performance computer centers, including facilities that are part of a project funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) and called TeraGrid, said Sangtae Kim, director of the Division of Shared CyberInfrastructure at the NSF, an independent U.S. government agency.
Supercomputing centers at U.S. universities including the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and the Center for Advanced Computing Research (CACR) at the California Institute of Technology are partners in the TeraGrid project.
Systems at TeraGrid partner facilities were hacked, but no systems that make up TeraGrid itself were compromised, Kim said.
NSF does not know who was behind the attack, but believes it was part of a much larger action that affected high-end systems worldwide, including sites in Europe. Many of the compromised systems are connected to university research centers, he said.
Stanford University's Information and Technology Systems and Services (ITSS) group published a security alert on Saturday warning researchers about compromises of a number of systems running the Sun Solaris and Linux operating systems on the Stanford campus. The advisory also noted that the attacks were part of a move against "a large number of research institutions and high performance computing centers."
The university became aware of the intrusions after users noticed discrepancies in the time of their last reported log-in, which indicated that their log-in information had been hijacked. Other systems began performing poorly or reporting errors after the intruders installed so-called "rootkits," or programs that allow the malicious hacker to disguise his or her presence and gather information such as user names and passwords from the compromised system, the ITSS alert said.
Attackers gained access to the systems by cracking or sniffing passwords from insecure network traffic such as Telnet remote communications sessions or from password files on other compromised systems, according to the alert.
Once logged on to a system, the attackers looked for systems that were not up to date with their operating system patches, then used known software exploits to elevate their privileges from user to administrator (or "root") status.
Other systems fell to hackers because of loose security configuration for Network File Service (NFS), a way to share files and directories over networks or the Internet. Many institutions applied loose security to these shared directories to "facilitate the distribution of system management and data processing tasks," the advisory said.
The ITSS group recommended that compromised systems be taken off the network and completely rebuilt, with new versions of the operating system and up-to-date patches installed.

SCV Fishing Report, October 30th: Local Lakes And Saltwater Report [1]
It's time for this week's fresh and salt water fishing report for KHTS AM-1220:
Freshwater Report:
1) Castaic Lake....A few small stripers are biting, but quite slow this past week. There are some black bass biting in the early AM or late PM; try Utopia Cove, Dry Gulch, or Firebreak Cove.
2) Pyramid Lake....The water level is up at Pyramid Lake. Stripers are biting in the early AM off the Points and near the Buoy Line; shad baits are working best. Fair catfishin' on cut baits in the Coves.
3) Lake Piru...Slow fishing prevailed due to the drop in the water level, as the bass look for new locations to live, hide and ambush baits. However some small, largemouth bass are being caught in water from 6 foot to 25 foot depth.
4) Lake Cachuma...Catfish continue to bite on nightcrawlers and cut mackerel; try Jack Rabbit Flats, Little Cachuma Bay or the Narrows. Remember, on November 1st (Thursday) 4,000 pounds of trout will be planted in the lake. I predict very good trout fishing later this week!
Saltwater Report:
Landings from Long Beach to Marina Del Rey:
"Redondo Special", the AM 1/2 day boat has the best potential for exotics, fishing close by at Rocky Point. With lots of spawning squid in the Bay and candy bait in the bait tanks, the Redondo Special on Monday brought back 8 white seabass, 6 sheephead, 7 calico bass, 1 lingcod, and 21 rockfish for 14 anglers aboard! On Monday, "Monte Carlo" on its 1/2 day run from 22nd Street Landing in San Pedro had a notable trip...nabbing 9 lingcod to 20 pounds, 9 cabezon to 14 pounds, 12 sheephead, and lots of rockfish, for the lucky anglers on board. The east end of Catalina Island is holding lots of small yellowtail.
Oxnard/Ventura Landings:
A couple of white seabass were caught on "Aloha Spirit" this past couple of weeks. The weather put a damper on the fishing with rain and winds, however the seas were flat-calm as the weekend approached and lots of quality red snapper, lingcod, sheephead, big ocean whitefish, calico bass, etc. were caught. Anacapa Island usually produces some huge "homeguard" yellowtail in November, as the squid spawn shows and Santa Rosa and San Miguel Islands will also be areas to be.... at the right time!
NOTE: Starting November 1st, the DFG has reduced the rockfish maximum depth to 300 feet of water.
...and that concludes this week's fish report. This is Halibut Hal reporting for your Hometown Station, KHTS AM-1220.

When I was a young swimmer I used to get super nervous about my swim meets for days to the point that I often arrived to the race with a cold. I did not know why but I of course now figured out that so much stress was actually compromising my immune system. Even as a beginner triathlete I still had quite the nerves prior to the race. It took a long time to learn how to cope but in most of my recent races, including Kona, I was very calm and my nerves barely played into the equation. Now I have two kids who are starting to compete in high level kids athletics and travel out of state for competitions. They get nervous and my job as a dad is to help them deal with the situation. Let me pass on to you some ideas that you may be able to implement should you need some help in dealing with pre-race stress.
Do not create additional stress. Get your equipment ready with plenty of time; arrive on time so you do not have to be frantic about missing a meeting or not having your bike ready. Much of this kind of stress can be minimized by simply planning well and taking care of all items well in advance. It would be a good idea to have a list that you can check off.
Visualize the race and your performance. Think about all the things that you need to do and have done in practice. Where are you going to line up in the swim? How many turns on the swim? Where is your bike located in transition? Where are the hills? Think about your strategy for all of this and have a positive outlook as to how you will deal if all goes perfect.
Be open and welcome challenges. Although we can visualize a perfect race we also need to be open and expect that it will not be easy. Almost every race brings a situation that is unexpected. You may not have a solution but with a clear head you can often figure it out and have a successful race. This happens to everyone including the professional athletes that win. You may not have a perfect race but you can race it perfectly.
Do not base success on a finish line time. Triathletes are very proud of their times including myself. However, time is only relevant on the specific race day and on the specific race conditions. One of my best swims in an Iron distance race is one of my slowest when looking at the clock. Be flexible and if you use time as a goal have an A goal but also a B and C goal that you can live with. Do not chastise yourself knowing that conditions can very well be the reason you are not meeting your A goals. Better yet, reserve judgment of your time and performance until the race is over. At that time you can look at all the information and determine how well you actually did.
Carry on with daily activities. Do not make all activities prior to the race be all about the event. Register and visit the expo but do not hang there all day listening to what everyone did or did not do. This has nothing to do with your race and more than likely will just put doubt into what you did. Get away a little bit and try to carry on as usual. Spend time with loved ones, more than likely they supported you along the way.
Finally remember that there is nothing you can do about everyone else's performance. More than likely they are going through the same thing you are going through. If everyone else is fit and are going to beat you then more power to them. Just concentrate on what you can do. Do not beat yourself up before you start. You did all you could do and the past is the past. You have a race to do. Take care of it and once you are done realize that everyone that loved you and liked you before still will. Those that did not love you will not change their mind because of your performance. Enjoy your race.

Alex Plante 10-11: It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry
Alex Plante could do everyone an enormous favor by turning into an NHL player. The Oilers no doubt hoped he was raw on the way to praw but it's a long process. Plante has shown progress since turning pro and would appear to be the next man up on the prospect chain. The club devoted at-bats to the 2006 duo (Peckham-Petry) this year so the 2007 1st rder would be next up.
Looking at the team's depth chart (and signed/rfa defenders) it looks like Plante has a real chance to spend extended time in the NHL in 11-12.
There are some red flags. A harbinger of Plante's future might be the team's acquisition of similar player-type Colten Teubert, and his healthy scratches down the stretch were curious.
The item that we should probably be pondering is this: if Plante were a more finished product, the McIlrath interest, the Teubert trade and the Siemens rumors would be a distant bell. There's something about Alex Plante that has someone unconvinced.
Alex Plante 10-11
- Boxcars: 3gp, 0-0-0 -2 (NHL)
- Boxcars: 73gp, 2-15-17 +11 138pims (AHL)
- What do these numbers tell us? Plante's AHL numbers are a nice step in the right direction. He was a HS at times during the year and he spent time on the third pairing too. However, there's also evidence Plante progressed and played tougher minutes too, so I'd suggest it is reasonable that he progressed as a prospect over the season.
- How could these numbers be better? I think he's on track. I'm not sure what kind of upside we're looking at, those junior numbers didn't come with him (no PP time= fewer counting numbers).
- Where does he slot in on the depth chart? At a guess, I'll say Whitney, Gilbert, Foster, Petry, Smid, Peckham and Taylor Chorney are clearly ahead of him. After that, I'll guess that Plante, Teibert and Kevin Montgomery are in the mix for callups. Plus the Oilers will no doubt sign a couple of retired NHL veterans like Joe Hall and Doug Harvey.
- Do you think he's in trouble? A little trouble. I'd say that the trade for Colten Teubert blocks Plante a little and makes him a candidate for trade. I have no evidence, but LAK had a laundry list of prospects in the minors and the Oilers acquired Teubert. It sounds to me as though they were looking for a very specific skill set and those skills are supposed to be Plante's strengths.
- Can't both of them make it? Sure. But if Teubert and Plante make it, where does that put Peckham and Smid? The Oilers are likely to proceed with Whitney, Petry and Gilbert (or Gilbert replacement) at the top of the depth chart as the puck movers/complete defenders, so there's room for at most three stay-at-home types (two if they keep Foster and go with two DD).
- Among the stay-at-homes, where does Plante rank? I'd place Smid and Peckham above the rest and then it's a photo finish.
- Does he have any trade value? I don't think so, that's why Smid makes more sense as a trade asset.

The FAA has released the EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2012 Notice to Airmen (NOTAM), available now for download from the agency. The NOTAM, which is in effect from 6 a.m. Friday, July 20, through noon on Monday, July 30, outlines procedures for the many types of aircraft that fly to Oshkosh for the event, as well as aircraft that land and depart at nearby airports. It was designed by FAA in partnership with EAA to assist pilots in their flight planning and is required reading if you're flying your aircraft to AirVenture.
While the overall procedure is similar to past years, there are some noteworthy changes compared to the 2011 version. Some of those changes include:
The free copy of NOTAM is available to order or download, or by calling EAA Membership Services at 800-564-6322. Additional hints and tips for pilots arriving at and departing from EAA AirVenture 2012 are also available.
This year's NOTAM cover photo features a bright yellow Piper J-3 Cub in honor of the airplane's 75th anniversary. EAA has several activities planned to honor the Cub this year, including a group arrival, special parking for Cubs, and numerous presentations throughout the week.

Le Mystere Response:
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that you are not pleased with your Florence nursing bra. Part of the allure of this bra is the soft, stretchy cup which is extremely supportive for full busted women as well. However, keep in mind that when purchasing a nursing bra, you should still keep all of the normal bra fitting rules in play: nice firm band for most of the support and a strap that doesn't need to be pulled too tight because you are anchored and secured at the band. Also, as with any bra, it is extremely important to give it a chance to rest. Even if not washing after every wear, you must give the bra a day or two between each wear so that the elastic fibers have a chance to rest and recover. And of course, no dryer ever.
Perhaps you would find our Sexy Mama 163 nursing bra
will make you feel more secure. It has a contoured cup with a nice, wide band for superior lift. The lace lays flat giving a smooth look even under thin knits. We do hope that you will give us another try.

Le Mystere Response:
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that you found our Florence Nursing Bra did not work for you. The clasp is designed with convenience in mind and in addition, the thick cotton cup provides irritation free comfort and modesty for the nursing mother. Perhaps you would consider giving our Sexy Mama nursing bra a try. It has a lightweight memory foam cup that will mold to your body which aids in the comfort and coverage without adding additional bulk. We do hope that you will give this style a try.

As dog parents, we have a responsibility to provide for both the mental and physical well-being of our dogs. A well-exercised dog is not only a happy dog, but also a healthy one. Their endorphins, like ours, are activated during exercise. Now get your dog the exercise he/she needs on a consistent schedule and regardless of weather. No traveling in heavy traffic, no crowded dog parks, no rainy day cancellations. Just your own dog-specific engineered motorized treadmill, where your dog can exercise safely and you can control the intensity and duration of his/her workouts. Treading for dogs is not only a great way to keep your dog in shape, but as natural hunters, herders and guardians it also gives them a "job" and adds purpose to their lives. DogTread Dog Treadmill provides the basic principal of movement and mobility to help balance your dog's behavior and at the same time, his or her physique. The DogTread is safe, durable and easy to use.
Perfect for small dogs and small spaces. The Small DogTread Dog Treadmill features an attractive pet-friendly design, whisper-quiet motor and training guidelines that make it easy to train small dogs quickly! It is portable and easy to store or transport anywhere you go with your pet. The flip-bar incline provides training flexibility so you adjust training intensity as needed. DogTread provides the tools you need to incorporate daily exercise anytime, anywhere in any weather. The DogTread is the perfect healthy solution for the time starved pet parent. The DogTread Dog Treadmill is the ideal solution for keeping your pet active and healthy during cold, snowy winter months when walking outside is not an option.
The DogTread Dog Treadmill Features:
It is important to understand that weight guidelines alone do not always make for a full proof fit. For this reason we encourage owners to take a second measurement. It is called a Gait Measurement and is most accurate in determining the best treadmill for your dog. Measure your dog fully Extended. To do this, get your dog in a down position on its side and extend the legs, both front and back so they both appear to be reaching. The legs don't need to be straight out - just comfortably extended. Provide wiggle room. Add another 5-10 inches to your dog's extended measurement. Consider that your dog may drift forward or back and allow for more room to ensure your dog will stride and change gaits at a comfortable speed. Review the Product Specifications. Each DogTread product description provides running area dimensions. Compare your measurements with the individual model specs to determine the best fit. Multi-pet Family. If you own dogs of many sizes, measure the biggest dog and buy for this size. The smaller dogs can also learn to run on the larger track.
Breed Recommendations: Beagle, Bichon Frise, Boston Terrier, Chihuahua, Cairn Terrier, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Cocker Spaniel, Dachsund, French Bulldog, Italian Greyhound, Lhasa Apso, Maltese, Miniature Pinscher, Miniature Schnauzer, Papillon, Pekingese, Pomeranian, Pug, Scottish Terrier, Shetland Sheepdog, Shih Tzu, Silky Terrier, Soft-Coated Wheaten Terrier, Yorkshire Terrier, Welsh Corgi, West Highland White Terrier.

There are three fundamental truths to this Thanksgiving holiday: 1. Football will be on TV. 2. Food will be on the table. 3. And one of the best ways to cook anything is in the deep fryer. Counting the first two truths as inevitable, several Redskins have combined their culinary knowledge to create a Thanksgiving bird of the deep-fried persuasion. The news broke on Twitter: <...

EXCLUSIVE: Ramona Rizzo Recaps Mob Wives Episode 2
"Pass The Bowl" is VH1's ongoing interview series, wherein celebrities contribute questions to our bowl and fellow celebs later draw a question.
Mob Wives' Ramona Rizzo: What is your most scariest thing that ever happened to you while you were out in public with a fan?
Emmy Rossum: My most scariest thing was in Germany a couple years ago. I was staying in a hotel for a movie premiere and a fan found out what hotel room I was in. So, I signed autographs outside the hotel and then went into the hotel to go to sleep and went up to my room by myself, and they got in the elevator with me and came up to my room and wouldn't leave. And a couple days later, was actually waiting outside my hotel room door - had somehow figured out what room I was actually in. So, since then, I use an alias.
Emmy's Question For The Bowl: What was the last take-out you ordered? From where and what dish?

Sir ?uestlove of The Roots: Why does Peanut Butter Cap'n Crunch, get 0 respect next to its other crunch counterparts?

A. The new Razer Nostromo boasts several enhancements over its predecessor, the Belkin N52te, like the ability to switch instantly between eight keymaps (up from Belkin's three), and the flexibility of storing up to 20 gaming profiles from the previous limit of 10.
Gamers can also take advantage of the new onboard chipset (replacing the previous Synapse flash memory) and software driver thereby removing all old programming limitations, as the Razer Nostromo enables gamers to effortlessly program sophisticated macros of infinite length.
The device's new configurator software puts its advanced macro programming capabilities in the hands of gamers in a user-friendly way, allowing them to conveniently remap all the Nostromo's buttons with any game command. Any gamer will be a deadly force to reckon with when they've got a set of personalized commands and combos right at their fingertips.
A. Hyperesponse refers to the technology imbued in our products' mechanical parts, most importantly the buttons you press for victory. Hyperesponse keys like those on the Razer Nostromo allow rapid key actuation and can be pressed anywhere for accurate response.
Ultrapolling simply increases the number of times your key presses are reported back to the computer by reducing the interval between each transmitted data down to a blistering 1 millisecond. This makes your responses in-game a lot smoother and more accurate than with your average keyboard.
A. Profiles save different key configurations and settings which would be useful for different games and applications. For instance, there may be a profile saved for first person shooters that has key configurations centred around the WASD cluster. Another profile might be saved for strategy games which involve the various hotkeys and commands you would require.
Profiles are convenient as it means you don't have the hassle of reprogramming your controls each time you launch a new game. You just have to switch the profile to suit the game and voila! You're ready to kick some ass.
Profile customizations can be accessed via the Nostromo's included driver software (installation required).

In part two of the season three finale, Emma and Hook must be careful in their quest not to change anything in the Enchanted Forest of the past, lest they risk altering the lives of their friends and family--as well as their very own existence.
In part one of the season three finale, Emma and Hook are pulled into Zelena's time portal and find themselves in the Enchanted Forest of the past, while Mary Margaret and David celebrate the naming of their son at a coronation in Granny's Diner.
With Mary Margaret in labor and due to give birth at any moment, the residents of Storybrooke go on high alert in an attempt to ensure that Zelena doesn't try to steal her newborn baby for use in her ultimate game plan to turn back time and change her destiny--while obliterating Regina's existence. Meanwhile, in the land of Oz of the past, Glinda tries to convince Zelena to fight her evil tendencies and join her and her sister witches as a protector of Oz. But the appearance of a young girl from Kansas could turn out to be her undoing.
Zelena threatens to kill Henry if Hook--whose lips have been cursed by the Wicked Witch--doesn't proceed with kissing Emma, which will drain all of her magical powers away, and things begin to heat up between Regina and Robin Hood. Meanwhile, back in the Fairy Tale Land that was during the past year, Snow and Charming go in search of Glinda, the Good Witch of the South, to see if she can help them defeat Zelena, and the curse that will ultimately send the Fairy Tale characters back to Storybrooke is cast--but from an unlikely source.
After Zelena steals Regina's heart, Regina casts a spell so that she can speak across the realms to her dead mother, Cora, to discover the truth about why she abandoned Zelena, and Belle stumbles across what Zelena's ultimate end game is. Meanwhile, in the Fairy Tale Land that was, young Cora is duped by a man claiming to be a prince and finds herself alone and pregnant. But a chance meeting with a real prince could lead Cora to the royal life she's always craved, but she must keep her pregnancy a secret or risk losing everything.
Ariel returns to Storybrooke and pleads with Hook to help her find Prince Eric, who never returned to the town when the new curse was invoked. Emma agrees to let Regina teach her how to use magic so that she can help defeat Zelena, and Mary Margaret and David try to prove that they can be just as much fun as Hook is with Henry--who thinks they are boring. Meanwhile, in Fairy Tale Land during the past year, an angry Ariel confronts Hook over her missing Prince Eric, who she assumes was kidnapped and possibly killed by the swarthy pirate. But when Hook confesses that the Jolly Roger has been stolen and Eric is most likely the thief's prisoner, Ariel unknowingly provides him with a clue as to who the culprit.
With Rumplestiltskin as her slave, Zelena challenges Regina to a fight to the death and shocks the Evil Queen with the reveal of their familial connection, and the town lays Neal to rest. Meanwhile, back in the past in the land of Oz, a jealous Zelena asks the Wizard to send her to Fairy Tale Land after discovering that she has a sister, Regina, and that Rumplestiltskin is training her to become a powerful force to be reckoned with.
Neal finds himself back in Storybrooke and yearns for a way to reconnect with his son Henry, whose memories of his father are gone, while also trying to find his own father, Rumplestiltskin, whom he has just learned is alive but missing, and Regina discovers a possible connection with Robin Hood. Meanwhile, in the Fairy Tale Land that was over the past year, agonizing over the death of his father, Neal--with the help of Belle and enchanted candelabra Lumiere--attempts to find a magical solution to bring back Rumplestiltskin from the dead.
While Emma, David, Regina and Hook continue their search for the Wicked Witch, she, in turn, is planning a dark surprise for David. And Zelena's prisoner is powerless under her watch as she plots her next course of action against the townspeople. Meanwhile, in the Fairy Tale Land that was in the previous year, Prince Charming stumbles upon Rapunzel, who is trapped inside a tower, and must help her confront her fears in order for her to be free.
Emma arrives in Storybrooke with Henry and reunites with her friends and family, only to discover that no one remembers how they were transported back--or the past year they had spent back in Fairy Tale Land. But Emma is sure that someone in town is responsible for this new curse and teams up with Regina in an attempt to uncover their identity. Meanwhile, in Fairy Tale Land during the past year, Regina, with the aid of Robin Hood, attempts to break into her castle, which has been overtaken by the Wicked Witch.
Hook goes to New York to help Emma regain her memories so she can help her fairy-tale friends and family.
The residents of Storybrooke race to stop Pan from placing another curse on the town.
Pan's plan threatens the citizens of Storybrooke's joy over Henry's return; Snow and Charming spend their honeymoon searching for a mythical being that could stop Regina.
The race to stop Pan is on as Henry's life hangs in the balance; with Mr. Gold's help, Regina decides to adopt a baby.
Pan tries to convince Henry that he can save magic and Neverland; a young Rumplestiltskin receives a magical item that could give him a fresh start with his father.
Mr. Gold and Regina send Ariel back to Storybrooke with an item that will allow Belle to locate a hidden artifact that could help take down Pan. But unbeknownst to them, two men have broken into the town with the intent to stop them at all costs.
Season three starts with one mission: Save Henry. Neverland is a much darker place than you remember, and in order for our heroes to accomplish their mission, they'll have to face a foe more powerful than the Dark One himself.
Emma Swan wonders if the residents of Storybrooke, Maine are somehow actual characters from legendary children's tales. Parallel worlds unravel in this modern take on classic fables where a curse has trapped famed storybook characters in our world.
The fairytale characters must contend with magic in their quest to find a way home, as new fairytale characters are revealed, old friends are revisited, and some we've trusted will turn against their own.

FREEHOLD TOWNSHIP—CentraState Healthcare System is proud to announce its participation in the American Cancer Society's (ACS) Epidemiology Research Program—Cancer Prevention Study-3 (CPS-3). CentraState is inviting men and women between the ages of 30 and 65 who have no personal history of cancer to participate in this historic cancer research study.

Participants in this grassroots effort will complete an introductory evaluation process followed by periodic personal information update surveys conducted from their home.
Previous CPS efforts have uncovered significant findings, including the link between cigarette smoking and lung cancer; how physical activity can ultimately lower the risk of a variety of cancers; and the impact of obesity on cancer occurrences.

Enrollment appointments will be scheduled for Tuesday, July 24, from 7 a.m. to 12 p.m., or Wednesday, July 25, from 2-7 p.m. at CentraState's Star and Barry Tobias Ambulatory Campus, 901 W. Main Street, Freehold. Appointments will also be offered on Thursday, July 26, 12-5 p.m. at CentraState's Medical Office at Monroe, 312 Applegarth Road, Monroe.

"Very happy with how my sons birth announcement came out! The template made it so easy. I just added the info and picture."
"I LOVE this card! I fell in love once I saw it! It was perfect! My son was wearing a red tie which complemented the red perfectly! I received a ton of complements on it and feel I did not make a mistake one bit! :-) Thank you for having such a beautiful card! :-)"
"Everyone loved her birth announcement!! They turned out great!! I was able to customize the fonts and colors to get the finished product I wanted!! Shipping was quick and I received them very fast!!"
"Loved these announcements that I bought to send out for the birth of my little girl. I really liked the flower frame. I also really like that the announcement was 'completed' by having a matching back. Would definitely recommend. Shipping, however, was very slow and arrived two days later than the expected delivery date, even though I paid extra for fast shipping."
"My husband and I chose this announcement for our baby because we missed the boat on sending a "holiday" announcement, but with an early December baby, wanted the card to have a wintry theme. This card was not only beautiful and snowy to us, but got LOTS of compliments from our friends and family. I would happily use tinyprints again!"

Green Energy — America's Lie

Harlingen, Texas, June 28, 2011: It is doubtful that if a truly honest person could be found, Americans would elect that individual to public office. We have historically managed to gather a collection of fork tongued intellectuals and slick talking con artists together into one large gang and allow them to run the country. You think not! Well it is not only in America. Liars have been running the governments of all nations since the days when Plato and Aristotle spoke on this human failing.
One of the biggest deceptions being voiced by our current Administration and its minions in Congress concerns the viability and practicality of Green Energy. Those who have already swallowed this government mythology have strongly bought into the idea that these multiple alternative energy sources will end our need for fossil fuels, clean up our environment, reduce costs and save the planet.
You have read in previous articles my rage about the government lies related to corn-based ethanol. It not only limits one of our main food sources, but also drives up the price on dozens of products from soda pop to plastics that utilize corn in their manufacture.
Farmers can grow and average of 7,110 pounds of corn per acre. This can be processed into 328 gallons of ethanol. That same corn requires 140 gallons of fossil fuel, which at today's pump prices, would total more than $1200. Using that rationale, ethanol has already been heavily subsidized even before it is processed from the raw corn. During the processing there is only 8 percent extracted in the form of alcohol, with more energy expended to reach that point. An additional process is required to produce the 99.8 percent pure ethanol needed for mixing with gasoline. It requires 131,00 BTUs of energy to make one gallon of ethanol and that one-gallon only produces 77,000 BTUs of energy, or a loss of 54,000 BTUs of energy for each gallon of ethanol produced. It costs $1.74 per gallon to produce ethanol. 95 cents is the cost to produce a gallon of gasoline. On top of all this, the government is subsidizing ethanol to the tune of $1 billion a year. You do the math on the value of this green energy source.
Wind energy may be the closest we have come to reaching balance of cost vs. result. It too, has limited value. There just might be strong value in wind farms located in Deep South Texas. Most of the time there is wind blowing off the Gulf of Mexico. However, national studies have revealed that a utility company can only count of wind generated electricity for about 30% of its power. The remainder of the time wind is not blowing strong enough to yield satisfactory electrical output.
Since each turbine blade is more than 120 feet in length, the noise level of wind driven energy is severe. People who reside within a mile of a wind farm must suffer a continuing noise background and incorporate it into their daily lives. In reality it means wind farms must be located far away from population centers, thus increasing the cost of connecting them to the main grid.
"So", you ask, "what about solar?" It has been touted as being silent and quietly operating every day. It has been praised for adding to the savings on electricity. It places no pollutants into the air or our overall environment.
My best example of solar folly can come right from my hometown of Harlingen, Texas. The city fathers have been elated at their newest contribution to green energy. Headlines in the daily newspaper read "Solar Panels Equal Savings for Harlingen. Just what are those savings?
Through the American Reinvestment Recovery Act, which many citizens refer to as "Porkqules", the city received a grant of $645,100 to install 308 solar panels on a municipal building. According to City Commissioner Robert Leftwich, "This will save the city money in the long run and will create a more sustainable and economically responsible model."
Well, the commissioner must have forgotten his calculator. By the city's on estimates these panels will save the taxpayers $7,500 a year in energy costs.
If some quick math is undertaken it can be seen that in 25 years a savings of $187,500 will be realized by Harlingen. Since the project has a cost of more than $600,000, which already came out of taxpayer pocketbooks...and since the life span of a solar panel is only 25 years, the American public has taken another tax loss beating.
But, go ahead America; keep buying into the fraud of Green Energy. After all more than 40% of you are not putting any money into the operation of our nation.

Rated 3.6 out of 5�by 121 reviewers.
Rated 1 out of 5�by Harry Do not buy thiss!!!! Used it in practice 2 months before season and it broke after 2 weeks of use in batting practice August 6, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5�by Coach D. Not a lot of pop Our Varsity Baseball team purchased this bat and used it for two seasons. The first season, it seemed to do okay but this season it was completely dead. Now I only use it for hitting ground balls to the infield. July 22, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Gavin Super hot hybrid! My son reports that this is a hot bat, nice balance. Same as the S2, just different graphics. What a value on a bbcor easton bat. July 18, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5�by Mike Good while it last Used for one season and then it lost all pop. Good while it lasted June 3, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by snipper99 Great Bat My son had this very same bat for three years. It performed wonderfully for him during that time. Just recently the bat cracked and needed to be replaced. We were in the store looking for a 2014 model bat when he happened to notice that there was one just like his old bat in the very back. He looked no further and we took this bat home with us. It performs well from the very first time it's used. Too bad Easton no longer makes this bat. June 3, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5�by Buck1024 The only positive is the price I have to say I was disappointed with the pop of the bat and the sound is just awful. Even when it hits the sweet spot is sounds like a wooden bat hitting a tree. I know BBCOR bats are nothing in comparison with the BESR bats of a few years ago, but even for $99, I was expecting a little zip. I've used other BBCOR bats and they seem to have more pop, a smoother feel, and a more satisfying sound at contact. I would recommend spending another $100 to get the black and yellow Easton S2 which is much preferred by my team. May 27, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Stevedawg It's a great bat. This bat was definitely worth it's money I'm glad to bought it. The games that were left in our season I improved my hitting average and could hit the ball farther than normal. Thank You so much for recommending this bat I love it. May 20, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5�by Ryanlit5 Rubber Broke Very Quickly after about 20 at bats the rubber piece of the bat started braking and the grip on the handle broke off almost immediately April 28, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by surge4 2 piece CXN I bought this bat and it worked great for a while. Eventually the 2 piece CXN rubber part started to break. Since this started to break the bat started to rattle and lost power. April 13, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by PitcherBatter7 Swing Speed Increase Upon purchasing this bat I first noticed the small diameter of the stem; I find that this small diameter makes the bat feel a lot lighter and also makes your swing speed a lot quicker. The ball when hitting seems to explode off of the bats' barrel and makes the sound of a shotgun (something every teenage boy loves) it also seems to replicate the power of one also. I also find that this bat is quite a bit cheaper than that of a Demarini or a top-of-the-line Easton and personally I would rather have this one after holding both the new Easton and Demarini.

FOCUS North America provides Food, Occupation, Clothing, Understanding and Shelter to our neighbors here in America who need it most. Our services and programs support sustainable growth and development in the lives of those we serve, helping to move people out of poverty and into stability.
"FOCUS North America is a national movement to help the working poor take that final step of moving from a place of dependency to self-sufficiency," Executive Director Nicholas Chakos said. "We work hardest at getting people into good jobs and permanent housing, because sustainable employment and housing are really the key components to lifting people out of poverty."
Chris Ridley—a volunteer at FOCUS Minnesota—stands as an example of this transformation. Seven years ago, Ridley hit rock bottom when he was arrested and sent to prison.
"I messed everything up;" Ridley said, "it only took five minutes and one big mistake."
Ridley visited several rescue shelters in his area, but he felt that they were all paths leading back to his previous, destructive lifestyle. When he discovered the FOCUS Center, however, it was a different story; he was welcomed, loved, and recognized the Center as the place where he could cultivate his transformed life.
At his lowest point, he prayed and recommitted his life to God. "I fell to my knees and said, 'Show me what you have for my life,'" he said.
After his prayer, Ridley began to exhibit good behavior and positive change, allowing for his release from prison last year. Upon re-entering society, he immediately wanted to find a place to continue the transformation he had begun.
"I knew I needed to give back to society," he said. "I needed to be an example for people to see not only what a true believer is, but also [for them] to meet someone who has been incarcerated and has changed for the better."
"He faithfully comes to work, serving meals to the homeless and assisting with our clothing distributions," FOCUS Minnesota Center Director Vera Proctor said. "He's slowly made a life for himself through his own friends and church activities, and we're really blessed that part of his life is with FOCUS."
Ridley feels he has a growing ministry to set an example for others—proving that a person can live a transformed life.
"My goal is to show others that no matter what a person's past is, it's who they are now that matters," Ridley said. "I represent true change that can impact the world."
FOCUS North America is changing the lives of many people like Chris Ridley, so that they too can help inspire others toward similar transformations, from lives of poverty to stability.

Parkinson's Disease Health Center
Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease
Deep brain stimulation (or DBS) is a way to inactivate parts of the brain that cause Parkinson's disease and its associated symptoms without purposefully destroying the brain. In deep brain stimulation, electrodes are placed in the thalamus (to treat essential tremor and multiple sclerosis) or in the globus pallidus (for Parkinson's disease).
In deep brain stimulation electrodes are connected by wires to a type of pacemaker device (called an impulse generator, or IPG) implanted under the skin of the chest, below the collarbone. Once activated, the device sends continuous electrical pulses to the target areas in the brain, blocking the impulses that cause tremors. This has the same effect as thalamotomy or pallidotomy surgeries without actually destroying parts of the brain.
The IPG can easily be programmed using a computer that sends radio signals to the device. Patients are given special magnets or other devices so they can externally turn the IPG on or off.
Depending on use, the stimulators may last three to five years. The IPG replacement procedure is relatively simple.
How Does Deep Brain Stimulation Work?
Experts are unclear how deep brain stimulation works.
How Is Deep Brain Stimulation Performed?
Patients who are having stimulators placed on both sides of the brain will have their surgery divided into two parts. Most people with Parkinson's disease will require the surgery be done on both sides of the brain. During the first surgery, the electrodes are placed into the brain, but left unconnected.
There are several ways in which the electrodes are placed into the target areas of the brain. First these areas must be located. One way to locate the target areas is to rely only on a computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan. While some surgeons stop there, others use an electrode recording technique to map and target the specific areas that they will need to reach.
Once the correct location is identified, the permanent electrodes are implanted. The loose ends are placed underneath the skin of the head and the incision is closed with sutures. The patient receives general anesthesia for the placement of the impulse generator in the chest and the positioning of extension wires that connect the electrodes to the impulse generators. It may take a few weeks until the simulators and medications are adjusted sufficiently for patients receive adequate symptom relief. But, overall, DBS causes very few side effects.
What Is Subthalamic Nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation?
Subthalamic nucleus stimulation is a new application of the original deep brain stimulation technique. After extensive clinical trials, stimulation of the part of the brain called the subthalamic nucleus has been recognized as the most effective surgical treatment for Parkinson's disease, addressing not only tremors, but the full range of the disease's symptoms, including: rigidity, slowness of movement, stiffness, and walking concerns.
Successful stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus allows patients to consistently reduce their medication while improving all of their other disease-related symptoms. In addition, the surgery to place the stimulator in the subthalamic nucleus is generally easier than surgeries for the thalamus or globus pallidus.
