Power Rogers & Smith, P.C.
Chicago's Top Personal Injury Lawyers
Power Rogers & Smith is a Chicago personal injury trial law firm devoted to representing individuals who have sustained catastrophic injuries or were killed due to the wrongful conduct of others, including insurance companies, corporations, trucking companies, manufacturers, hospitals, doctors and other wrongdoers. Power Rogers & Smith works on a contingent fee basis. It only gets paid if you win and obtain compensation. Any fees or costs will only be charged if there is a recovery for the client.
Power Rogers & Smith is consistently listed among the best Chicago personal injury trial law firms in the United States. Its named partners are listed among the "Best Lawyers in America" and "Illinois Super Lawyers." Two of its partners are members of the Inner Circle of Advocates, a select legal organization limited to 100 of the nation's best plaintiff lawyers. They are also Fellows of the International Academy of Trial Lawyers as well as the American Academy of Trial Lawyers.
In 2013, the lawyers at Power Rogers & Smith notably settled three cases, one for $40 million dollars as a result of accounting and banking malpractice, one for $35 million dollars as a result of medical malpractice, and the third for $23 million dollars for a work-related injury. In addition, two cases were tried to verdict in May and June of 2013, resulting in wins for the Plaintiff. The first involved a motorcycle collision, which resulted in a verdict for the Plaintiff of $5.5 million dollars. The second case resulted in a jury verdict of $7.25 million dollars and involved allegations of medical malpractice and wrongful death against the University of Chicago Medical Center. In addition, Joseph A. Power, founding partner of Power Rogers & Smith, was named the top personal injury and consumer lawyer in Illinois for 2013, the second consecutive year, by the publication Best Lawyers in America.
Power Rogers & Smith has recovered over $3 billion dollars in verdicts and settlements. Power Rogers & Smith has achieved the #1 spot in the Chicago Lawyer Annual Settlement Survey again in 2013, meaning the firm obtained more dollars in settlements than any other Chicago personal injury law firm. In fact, Power Rogers & Smith has finished first in the settlement survey in eight of the last fourteen years and has held the first place spot for the past four consecutive years, surpassing its next closest competitor by more than $400 Million in total settlement awards since 2000.Since inception, Power Rogers & Smith has obtained Chicago personal injury jury verdicts and awards of over $3 billion dollars for its clients in major trucking, medical malpractice, defamation, aviation, product liability and work place injury cases. Among its many record awards is the highest compensatory and medical malpractice verdict of $55.4 million dollars as well as a record recovery of $100 million dollars for a case involving the wrongful death of six children in a combined trucking and product liability case. The investigation that resulted from this case led to over 74 criminal convictions, including that of a former Illinois Governor and the retesting of over 2000 truck drivers. In addition, Power Rogers & Smith has obtained a verdict of $17.6 million for an individual suing his accountants for professional negligence.
Other notable trucking cases handled by the Chicago personal injury attorneys of Power Rogers & Smith include almost $40 million dollars for a family whose father was killed and wife and children severely injured when a truck rear-ended them, causing the car to burst into flames. Recently, the firm obtained a verdict of $25 million dollars for another client who was injured when a truck crashed into his vehicle.
Power Rogers & Smith also obtained a record $7 million dollar verdict for an Illinois Supreme Court Justice in a defamation case. The firm also represented and obtained multimillion dollar verdicts on behalf of two former Chicago Bear football players who suffered permanent injuries as a result of medical malpractice and currently represents one of the nation's top NBA basketball players in a defamation action. In addition, the firm's primary focus has been representing children, fathers, mothers, men, women, widows and orphans who were victims of Chicago personal injury.
Firm cases for Chicago personal injury have resulted in widespread societal benefits including the retesting of over 2000 truck drivers, the creation of new policies and procedures at a hospital requiring fetal monitoring of babies while high risk mothers are in labor, use of state of the art centralized testing of newborns for metabolic disorders and product recalls. In addition, in another highly publicized case that resulted in a $9 million dollar recovery, a teenage boy was left to bleed to death outside a hospital's doors. This case spurred a federal regulation requiring hospital personnel to assist people in need of care within a reasonable distance or the sight of the hospital entrance.

Registry helps homeowners avoid bad contractorsBy Josh OGorman
VERMONT PRESS BUREAU | August 31,2014Whether its remodeling the bathroom or making repairs after a storm, choosing a contractor can be difficult, especially for someone who is new to the area.
While the state has made efforts to address home improvement fraud and trade organizations are looking at how to police their own, property owners must do their own digging to ensure they find the right person for the job.
Since 2003, particularly unscrupulous contractors have been subject to the home improvement fraud statute of Vermont state law, which, for a repeat offender at the felony level carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
Sen. Richard Sears, D-Bennington, who chairs the Senate Judiciary Committee, recalls introducing the original bill at the behest of one of his constituents.
It came from some constituent complaints, as these things do, Sears said. There was a woman down in Pownal who had some window work done. She had given some money up front and the work was shoddy.
The criminal statute addresses instances when a contractor accepts money up front for materials and does not perform the work; when a contractor misrepresents the state of a property (saying an entire roof needs to be replaced when all it needs is a few rows of shingles); and when a contractor engages in profiteering during a declared state of emergency, such as in the aftermath of Tropical Storm Irene.
In addition to criminal penalties, anyone convicted of felony-level home improvement fraud or fraudulent acts related to home improvement fraud under the updated 2008 statute has his name placed on the Home Improvement Fraud Registry, which can be found online at ago.vermont.gov/assets/files/Consumer/HomeImprovementFraudRegistry.pdf.
The idea is, as a homeowner, if you want to have a plumber come and do work, you can check the registry and say, We dont want to hire this guy, said Assistant Attorney General Evan Meenan.
Once contractors go on the registry, they are on it for life unless they receive a pardon from the governor or if they received a deferred sentence which, like any deferred sentence, can be expunged from the offenders record.
The registry listed 46 contractors as of July 30. Two had received deferred sentences not yet expunged.
Once convicted of home improvement fraud, a contractor cannot operate his own business unless he files a $50,000 bond with the Vermont attorney generals office. He can go to work for someone else, but is required to notify both the attorney generals office and his employer of the conviction.
Continuing to work without meeting these conditions is a violation of the registrys terms and can bring a maximum penalty of a year in prison and a $1,000 fine.
As a result of some recent arrests, weve had some people calling to get into compliance, Meenan said.
Criminal prosecution is the final step the attorney generals office will take. But before taking a case to court, the office will try to help the homeowner and the contractor reach a peaceful resolution.
In partnership with the University of Vermont, the attorney generals office operates the Consumer Assistance Program, where property owners can go to complain about work what was done shoddily or not at all.
We receive a number of complaints during the building season, said CAP director Janet Murnane. We try to contact the business and engage in what we call letter mediation.
The program tries to have contractor and customer communicate and resolve their dispute through letters, a practice that Murnane said results in customers receiving back $300,000 to $400,000 annually.
And a prospective customer can contact CAP and learn how many letters of complaint were received about a contractor, and how many were resolved successfully.
The letter mediation program is crucial because proving home improvement fraud can be difficult. Meenan, who until recently prosecuted such cases, said the majority of criminal cases involved a contractor taking money and not performing the work.
We go criminal only if its really crossed the line into a theft, Murnane said. If its a matter of shoddy work, the customer can take it to civil court, but usually its pretty much impossible to collect damages.
One way to protect customers is to do what many other states do, which is licensing contractors. In Vermont, only plumbers and electricians are licensed; through the Division of Fire Safety because these trades are involved in fire sprinkler installation and repair.
For the rest of the trades, from carpet layers to roofers, the field is not regulated by the secretary of states Office of Professional Regulation, which licenses a host of other trades, from hair dressers to auctioneers.
Its a legislative decision, said Christopher Winters, director of the Office Professional Regulation, which studies the impact of licensing a profession, at the behest of the Legislature, and is currently looking at licensing foresters, art therapists and behavior analysts.
However, Winters said, there has been no request from the Legislature to look at licensing home contractors.
Sears recalled discussing the idea of licensing contractors during debates over the home improvement fraud bill.
During that time, there was some discussion about that licensing and I remember talking with larger general contractors in the Bennington area who supported the idea, but I didnt see a lot of support in the Legislature, Sears said. I think it has to do with the underground economy in Vermont.
The state senator added, I personally would support some sort of licensing. I cant get my hair cut without going to a licensed professional, but I can have thousands of dollars worth of work done on my house by someone without a license.
Mary Cregan Connolly, executive officer with the Home Builders and Remodelers Association of Northern Vermont, said her association has not taken a formal stand on whether its members should be licensed, but has heard remarks from members on both sides of the issue.
I hear people complaining there is no licensing, but I also hear people say they dont need to be told to do the right thing, Connolly said.
This past year, the association began asking new members to sign a code of ethics, and hopes to have all of its roughly 275 members sign the code by the associations annual meeting in January. The association is also looking at creating a mechanism to remove members who violate the code of ethics.
We feel there is a concern among our members who are ethical and build to code that they are at a disadvantage in the bidding process when they are going up against someone who is not building to code or is acting fraudulently, Connolly said.

The documents disclosed by the FBI include training presentations, answers to questions from Senators Leahy and Specter, and a list of reporting requirements. In an answer to Senator Leahy, the FBI stated that while it would discontinue the use of exigent letters, which the Inspector General had previously noted as a frequent source of abuse, the agency planned to continue its use of the emergency disclosures provision of the Electronic Communications Privacy Act. For more information, see EPIC: USA PATRIOT Act.
The first in a long series of Freedom of Information Act Requests (FOIA) was responded to by the Department of Homeland Security. Truthout was the first news organization to receive and post the information it received.
From DHS Turns Over Occupy Wall Street Documents to Truthout:

This report has been updated with new information gleaned from the cache of documents.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) closely monitored the Occupy Wall Street movement, providing agency officials with threat assessments, regular updates about protests taking place throughout the country, responding to internal requests for intelligence on the group and mining Twitter and other social media for information about Occupy's activities, according to hundreds of pages of internal documents DHS released to Truthout in response to our Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.
Eric Neuschaefer, a DHS FOIA program specialist, said the agency expects to release a second set of OWS-related documents to Truthout, the first news organization to file a FOIA request with DHS for OWS records, sometime in mid-April. He added that DHS will release files on a "rolling" basis once they are processed and cleared by DHS component offices.

This new release from Christina Åstrand, the principal concertmaster of the Danish Radio Symphony Orchestra, is recorded in the acoustic of a large empty concert hall, which gives the pizzicatos in the Ravel Sonata a gunshot quality. Where my benchmark in this work, the incomparable Viktoria Mullova (in her deleted 1990s Philips recording), has an instinctive response to the Blues movement, Åstrand superimposes the 'naughty' effects on her classical background. Her intonation is also sometimes questionable in what is otherwise a suitably brilliant finale.
Bloch's second violin sonata, the Poème mystique, receives the most successful performance on the disc. As in the Ravel, though, Per Salo's piano is balanced far too closely, with the violin almost swamped in the music's more brooding moments. With a warming vibrato, Åstrand brings an unusual feeling of sadness to the opening movement of the Janáček, but she stops short of the aggressive sounds required in the last two movements. Indeed, throughout there's a lack of engagement with the composer's many mood changes.
I am not sure why we also need a DVD of 'live' performances of the same programme made a few months previously, although there we find a degree more attack in the Janáček.

One hundred thirty-seven older alcoholic patients were randomly assigned to two different inpatient treatment programs at a Veterans Affairs medical center and followed for one year after discharge. The older alcoholic rehabilitation (OAR) program was operated by a tolerant staff that specialized in treating elderly alcoholics. Treatment included reminiscence therapy with goals of developing patient self-esteem and peer relationships. The traditional care program emphasized confrontation to focus on patients' past failures and present conflicts. Patient care costs were slightly lower (2.5 percent lower) in the OAR program than in the more traditional program, and OAR patients were 2.1 times more likely to report abstinence at one year. Response to the OAR program was best for patients over 60 years of age.

A facilitator realized that although the council created online courses and resources on GSLE, at volunteer meetings she heard comments indicating that many volunteers were still hesitant to use Journeys to deliver the GSLE to girls. She worked with the Volunteer Management department to develop a GSLE Coach role, which would support all direct-service volunteers as they implemented what they learned in the courses and put Journeys into action. This role was piloted in four Service Unit Teams where, after the first year, Journey sales increased by 30 percent; girls shared the impact of 14 new take-action projects via the council's web site; and the volunteer satisfaction scores increased by 12 percent.

By BOB BAUM
AP Sports Writer
PHOENIX (AP) - A person familiar with the negotiations says first baseman Paul Goldschmidt the Arizona Diamondbacks are close to agreement on a $32 million, 5-year contract that would run from 2014-18.
The deal would include a $14.5 million team option for 2019 with a $2 million buyout, the person said Friday, speaking on condition of anonymity because the agreement has not been finalized.
The 25-year-old Goldschmidt agreed in February to a deal paying $500,000 if he is in the majors this season.
As a rookie last year, Goldschmidt hit .286 with 43 doubles, 20 home runs and 82 RBIs.
This would mark the third major contract for the Diamondbacks this year following deals with second baseman Aaron Hill and third baseman Martin Prado.
Goldschmidt's talks were first reported by ESPN.com.

|Product Type: Chair dolly
|Country of Manufacture: China
Questions & Answers
"I will be purchasing this truck for my church. Before I make a decision, What kind of chairs work for this truck? " asked by Liam
"What is the height of this chair truck? Thank you in advance!" asked by Charlie
National Public Seating Double-Tier Hanging Chair Dolly
Excellent Dolly
Shawn from Portage, MI– Verified Buyer
We currently have 36 chairs mounted on this dolly and it makes it very easy to move them out of the way quickly.
NPS double tier hanging chair truck
Frances Jeche from Prescott, WI
Works well, but needs a restraint system if trying to fill to capacity with max number of chairs, so they don't fall off when being wheeled in or out of storeroom. Considered buying the hanging accessory for coats, but too expensive for what it is...can just as well rig up rods and cables or chains to do the same thing.
Holds alot of Chairs
Silvia from Riverside– Verified Buyer– Top 50 Reviewer
This is very practical and simple design for a chair dolly. It holds many chairs neatly. I don't have anything bad to say.
very sturdy
Paula Stice from Steelville, MO– Verified Buyer
The chair rack arrived ahead of schedule, was not difficult to finsh assembly and is very sturdy. The only difficulty I have is it is a little hard to steer when it is loaded, but I am not sure that is avoidable with that much of a load.
Tier Hanging Chair
Joyce Johnson from Garland, TX– Verified Buyer
I am so very pleased with this purchase and this product. I bought this for my church. I called and immediately was helped and the person I spoke with was very helpful and answered all my questions. When I placed the order, I thought it would take at least a week to arrive but it reached my church withing four days!!
chair truck
sterling county from Sterling City, TX– Verified Buyer
We had 2 of these in our facility, needed another. They work good and the price on this one was good
Chair Storage
Richard from Pride, LA– Verified Buyer
Our folding chairs were stacked in a storage closet and were being scratched and otherwise damaged. We rent our hall and it was a problem setting up or removing and storing the chairs.
Good compact chair storage
Charles of Portales from Portales, NM– Verified Buyer
We have a small space to store many chairs, and this is a great solution.
Small Footprint
Pastor Buhr from Gibraltar, MI
After having a long chair rack that took up much space, this hanging chair truck is a welcome relief. It takes up much less space (has a small footprint) and easily fits through all our doorways, even when fully loaded with chairs. Since we got padded chairs, I did not think it would hold a full 84 of them. However, I was pleased to find that it does! This was easy to assemble (some tools required), though it would have been helpful to know in advance exactly what size wrench we needed (metric). Still, it's well-built and should last for many years.
Bert from Edmonton, Alberta– Verified Buyer
Use it to stack the chairs in our Fellowship hall of our church. They take up less room than the one that holds only 50 chairs. The wheels could be a bit bigger so it would role easier when all the chairs are on it.

Grant back for Bulls clash?
The Stormers could welcome back fly-half Peter Grant in time for their Super Rugby opener against the Bulls on February 22.
Last year's South African Conference winners travel to Loftus Versfeld to open their campaign but the availability of the man who wore the number ten jersey for most of 2012 depends on the fortunes of his Japanese club, Kobe Kobelco Steelers.
"I could be back anywhere between the 5th and 25th of next month. So we'll just have to wait and see," the 28-year-old told Die Burger's website.
Springbok fly-half Elton Jantjies is set to play his first games in Stormers colours on his loan stint from the Lions in the two warm-up matches against the Cheetahs on February 2 and Boland on February 9, which is scheduled for Cape Town Stadium.

TERRAS v BASHLEY preview
Terras fans will settle for nothing less than three points today as their team take on a club battling just to stay in existence.
Jamie Richards and Isaac Vassell have joined the Terras on loan from Plymouth as the squad continues to feature more and more new faces.
One point from the last 12 hasn't been good enough from Weymouth so with two meetings against Bashley in four days six points are the target.
Last week, Bashley members voted in favour of letting the club fold at the end of the season, though there are talks of a possible takeover.
BATH v MAGPIES preview
The Magpies won 3-2 at Bath last season to complete the league double over their opponents.
Bath claimed the three points at the Avenue earlier this season and will be favourites to do the double themselves this term.
However, there isn't much between the two teams when you look at their recent form.
Despite being a contender for the play-offs, Bath haven't been picking up as many points as they would have wanted to.
Their 1-0 win over Maidenehad last time out ended a run of five without victory.
Dorchester haven't triumphed in three but have begun to pick up points on a regular basis.
I expect 6 points against bashley over the next 4 days #terras— @moorsy11 15 March 2014
Great day for football.. Let's get back to winning ways #terras— @AshleyWellsy 15 March 2014
MUST be 3 points Weymouth V Bashley this afternoon Come on you #Terras! http://t.co/O0ekx6HrR7— @WhatsonWeymouth 15 March 2014
Looking forward to watching @theterras today, perfect conditions for a home win, hope there's a big noise today COYT #terras— @mark_wratten 15 March 2014

Brown Baseball Faces No. 5 Texas in Four-Game Series
PROVIDENCE, R.I. – For just the third time in the history of the University of Texas' baseball program, they will square off against an Ivy League opponent.

The lone meeting between Texas and Brown came at the NCAA Round Rock Regional at Dell Diamond on June 1, 2007. The Longhorns were 8-2 victors in the game, with Joseph Krebs and Randy Boone combining to pitch five scoreless innings out of the bullpen. Texas' only other game against an Ivy League opponent came in 1988 when the Longhorns toppled Cornell 15-3 in Austin.

Kimball Earns Ivy League Honor
Brown senior pitcher Matthew Kimball (Nashville, Tenn.) started the 2011 Bears Baseball season off in impressive fashion, returning to his hometown and taking on No. 2 Vanderbilt. For his efforts, Kimball was named Ivy League Pitcher of the Week.
The Bears got seven strong innings from Kimball who was impressive in his homecoming performance, limiting the Commodores to just one run, but a two-run eighth inning gave the win to Vandy, 3-1.
Not only did Kimball and the Bears face one of the top teams in the country, they also squared off against one of the top pitchers. Preseason All-American junior Sonny Gray, who has played for Team USA, set a career-high with 15 strikeouts in a complete game performance.Kimball went toe-to-toe with Gray as the two dueled to a 1-1 tie until the eighth inning. The fourth-year right-handed pitcher went seven strong, scattering six hits while striking out three.
Scouting Texas
• Texas pitchers are bearing down against left-handed hitters holding them to a .200 (22-for-110) batting average on the season and just four extra-base hits. Cole Green has held lefties to a .095 batting average (2-for-21) while Andrew McKirahan and Taylor Jungmann has them hitting just .143 (1-for-7) and .160 (4-for-25), respectively.
• The lone meeting between Texas and Brown came at the NCAA Round Rock Regional at Dell Diamond on June 1, 2007. The Longhorns were 8-2 victors in the game, with Joseph Krebs and Randy Boone combining to pitch five scoreless innings out of the bullpen. Current volunteer Longhorns assistant coach Travis Tucker went 4-for-4 with one run scored and Kyle Russell hit his 28th home run of the season. Texas' only other game against an Ivy League opponent came in 1988 when the Longhorns toppled Cornell 15-3 in Austin.
• For his career, Taylor Jungmann is 12-0 with a 1.86 ERA in his 19 starts at UFCU Disch-Falk Field and the Longhorns have gone 19-0 when he throws the first pitch at home. Last season, Texas finished 10-0 in Jungmann's 10 starts at UFCU Disch-Falk Field He went 6-0 with a 1.44 ERA in his 10 starts at home. He held opponents to a .181 batting average and fanned 92 batters, while walking just 21 in 75.0 innings. He earned victories over New Mexico, Stanford, Oklahoma State, Louisiana Tech, Rice and TCU. Texas also earned wins with Jungmann getting "no decisions" against Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas and Texas A&M in games which all went extra innings.
• Longhorns' pitchers currently own a 3.34 strikeout-to-walk ratio on the season with 117 strikeouts and 35 bases on balls. Taylor Jungmannleads the way with an astronomical 27.00 ratio (27 K/1 BB). Others with impressive ratios, include Cole Green with a 10.50 mark (23 K/2 BB) and Corey Knebel with a 4.67 clip (14 K/3 BB).

What is the prognosis of coxsackie virus infections?
Until recently, the general prognosis for most patients with coxsackie infections was excellent, with most children making a complete recovery without needing any supportive care (hospitalization). However, this prognosis may be changing as evidenced by the outbreak in Alabama in 2011-2012 that required 12% percent of children to be hospitalized for supportive care. Only rarely do patients suffer poor outcomes with complications of meningitis, pericarditis, or encephalitis. Unfortunately, infants and young children infected with EV-71 have a prognosis that may vary from good to poor.

Elie Wiesel's Shocking Stage Appearance With Mad Preacher and Anti-Semite John Hagee
Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
On Oct. 25, while an overflow crowd of 1,500 poured into the first convention of the progressive-leaning Israel-oriented lobbying organization J Street, Elie Wiesel addressed a crowd of 6,000 Christian Zionists at Pastor John Hagee's " Night To Honor Israel."
According to the San Antonio Express News, while Wiesel sat by his side, Hagee trashed President Barack Obama, baselessly accusing him of "being tougher on Israel than on Russia, Iran, China and North Korea."
Meanwhile, Israeli Ambassador Michael Oren, who appeared at Hagee's Christians United for Israel summit earlier this year, rejected J Street's request to speak at their convention, instead dispatching a low-level embassy official to "observe" the event. Oren then accused J Street of "impair[ing] Israel's interests."
In blessing Hagee while damning J Street, Wiesel and Oren chose an anti-Semitic group led by a far-right end-times theology preacher over a fledgling progressive organization that bills itself as "pro-Israel, pro-peace." And both Wiesel and Oren seem to be embroiled in yet another controversy over involvement with the extremist preacher.
In the video below, Hagee warns that the anti-Christ will be homosexual, German and Jewish:
During the 2008 presidential campaign, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., avidly sought Hagee's endorsement, appearing by the pastor's side during a widely publicized press conference to announce it. McCain was intent on winning a seal of approval from a figure of the Christian right, especially since he had lambasted Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson in the 2000 Republican presidential primaries.
McCain may have been completely unaware of Hagee's sermon declaring the Holocaust to be a divinely ordained incident orchestrated by God to fulfill biblical prophecy; Hagee's accusation that the Jews' rejection of Jesus was the root of anti-Semitism; or his prediction that when the Antichrist returned, he would be homosexual and "partially Jewish, as was Adolph Hitler, as was Karl Marx."
When Hagee's anti-Semitic ravings surfaced on blogs like Talk2Action.org and eventually gained national notoriety, McCain renounced the preacher's endorsement.
Video below shows footage of Hagee's notorious Hitler sermon.
Unlike McCain, Oren and Wiesel cannot claim ignorance of Hagee's anti-Semitic remarks precisely because of the clamor over McCain's disassociation.
"My dear pastor, when I hear that Christians are getting together in order to defend the people of Israel, of course it brings joy to my heart," Wiesel told Hagee in a Sept. 3 interview. "And it simply says, look, people have learned from history." (Hagee is hawking DVD's of his Wiesel interview for $15 each on his personal Web site, turning footage of the encounter into a windfall profit.)
On Oct. 26, during an unofficial panel of bloggers and activists at J Street's conference, I criticized Wiesel and Oren for associating with Hagee just as I had written about McCain's involvement with the preacher.
By embracing an anti-Semite, Wiesel appears not to have learned the lesson he has taught. I said that the last person Wiesel trusted as much as Hagee was Bernard Madoff. That was a joke, of course, something of a Jewish joke, and in the humorous comparison I was granting Wiesel foolish credulity in his involvement with Hagee.
A Nobel Prize-winning writer, Wiesel has based his work and lectures for decades on the premise that we must learn from the tragedy of the past, the lesson of the Holocaust, in order not to repeat it. Perhaps Wiesel is unaware of Hagee's appalling theology in which the violent destruction of the Jews is essential to bring about the Second Coming; or perhaps he doesn't take it seriously and feels such nonsense should not get in the way of Hagee's financial and propaganda support for the settlement movement on the West Bank that is now at the heart of difficulty in the U.S.-Israel relationship.

Twitter Fools' Day
On March 25, 2009, Reuters quoted Biz Stone, co-founder of Twitter, saying "We think there will be opportunities to provide services to commercial entities that help them get even more value out of Twitter. If these services are valuable to companies, we think they may want to pay for them".
On April 1, 2009, Twitter Pro was launched. This premium Twitter account offered an instant 50,000 followers ("so you no longer have to bother writing anything interesting") as well as 160 character tweets (as opposed to Twitter's normal 140 character limit).
In reality, Twitter Pro was an April Fool's Joke perpetrated by yours truly, the Shorty Awards team. Twitter Pro's only feature is a big, garish red "PRO" (in 16pt Arial) slapped across the Twitter user's face. Victims received this message after giving just their username to join Twitter Pro:
1. Save this photo (right-click or control-click):
2. Click this link: http://twitter.com/account/picture
3. Upload the photo
4. Invite more people
Within 24 hours of launch, over 16,000 people signed up for Twitter Pro. If we charged just $140 per year for this valuable service, we'd make a cool $2.24 million in annual revenue. Who says Twitter can't make money?
You can view a large version on Flickr of the PRO mosaic embedded above that's made of up images of the actual fake pro users. Thanks to the Twitter team for being a good sport about this. We shudder to think how many support emails Twitter got about this.blog comments powered by Disqus

First, I want to thank Regina Reid for hosting another fun Arts and Crafts show! She always makes this so much fun.
That being said, coming in second in photography, I just have to say, Yvonne (Reynolds), I'm bringing it on next year!
Also, I challenge all you folks out there who take those great pictures you share on the Internet. Anyone can enter next year and you should; it's fun and we need to see more of Patterson's talent!
That includes crafts too. If you knit, crochet, do pottery or just build with Legos (My grandson took first in 3D for his castle of Legos.)
Thanks to all.

Is there a guideline on the number of databases that can be added onto a SQL Server isntance, basically how do we 'know' when not to be adding any more databases onto an instance?
asked Apr 07, 2010 at 12:03 AM in Default

add new comment (comments are locked)
You are permitted 32,767 databases per instance of SQL Server.
However, hardware is a limiting factor to the number of databases that can be served up efficiently.
answered Apr 07, 2010 at 12:59 AM
As Cirque said, the harddrive space and ability to manage the traffic coming in and out of the server is much more of an issue than the absolute number of databases.
Apr 07, 2010 at 01:17 AM TimothyAWiseman
When your server stops responding to TSQL statements, I think you've added one database too many.

I am refinishing a kitchen table, oak wood. I have already stripped and sanded it, and applied two coats of finish. I was sanding the second coat down and a few small spots seem to have the stain sanded off as well. It feels like they still have finish on them, but I'm not sure. Is there a way to fix this without having to start completely over? I don't have the tools for that at my apartment and I REALLY don't want to have to.
Using Minwax Polyurethane and I sanded with 400 grit sandpaper.

Were those small circular spots damaged before you began sanding? It looks as if someone tried to sand them out and may have damaged the wood.This message has been edited. Last edited by: GardenSprite,
No, I don't believe they were there before sanding.
If you problem isn't resolved, let me know. The resolution would take some time to explain, but I think I have some insights.
