At the end of March, Venturi dropped the first details on its intention to hit an amazing 435 mph (700 km/h) at the famed Salt Flats in Bonneville, Utah - also known as the world speed capital. Today the company has finally dropped the first details on the vehicle that will be used for this attempt: the third-generation "Venturi Jamais Contente", aka VBB-3.
The VBB-3 is fully electric and develops a total of 3,000 horsepower. Venturi's first record was established in 2010 when the VBB-2.5 went up to a top speed of 495 km/h (307.58 mph). With the VBB-3, Venturi plans to go up to 600 km/h (372.82 mph) and, in 2014, it plans to hit 700 km/h (434.96 mph). The biggest surprise will be revealed in 2015, but that remains a secret for now.
The VBB-3 will make its first appearance at the Bonneville Salt Flats on August 10th through 16th of 2013 and the first record attempts will take place on September 12 and 18, 2013.
Update 9/27/2013: Venturi was supposed to unveil the VBB-3 at the Bonneville Salt Flats top speed run this year, but heavy rains and flooding in an otherwise dry area cancelled the FIA-sanctioned top-speed runs. Instead VBB invited Prince Albert of Monaco over to officially unveil the 3,000-horsepower VBB-3. Venturi also revealed a series of videos of the top-speed monster, which you can see after the jump.

What is your opinion on same sex marriage?
I'm interested in hearing different opinions from different people around the world.
If you have a strong view. Please share :)
Topics: Equal Rights Same Sex Marriage equality
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Sep 4 2013: The real fight on same sex marriage is not about the man / man or woman / woman union .... it is about medical dangers, insurance, and benefit entitlements.
Religions catch the blunt of the "war" on same sex marriage ... that is because they are the easy and obvious target. The big money and the real war on the legality is insurance, medical, and political. It is interesting that historically the socialist / communist countries do not tolerate homosexuality in any form .... however in the USA the liberal forum of legalizing all forms of sexual unions is supported. That begs the question ... when the Socialization of America is complete will these acts be tolerated? My guess is no.
You have asked one of the most liberal sites on the web about a liberal standard. Sodomy laws were repealed in 2003 by a ruling of the SCOTUS. However, it is still illegal in San Francisco to either give or receive oral sex. Now that is funny. I found that under silly laws listed under San Francisco.
So in conclusion .... we should stop the argument of same sex marriage and debate the real issue surrounding it because that is where billions of dollars are at risk as well as lives and political futures.
Renee ... this has been discussed many times ... why do you revisit it now?
Sep 4 2013: I wholeheartedly agree with you Robert.....not much ground left to cover. It seems like a basic human right for people to be able to choose their life partner. It also seems like discrimination for others to decide what is right and what is wrong with adults choosing their partners.
However, there are still places where same sex marriage is not allowed, and there are still groups which discriminate, so perhaps it still needs to be discussed.
Sep 4 2013: I guess we see it a little differently Robert. I have lots of friends in same sex partnerships, and they like having the right to choose and marry their life partner. Many of them have lived happily with their chosen partner for many years.
I am proud to live in one of the first states to allow civil unions, and same sex marriage. So these loving couples can be officially recognized and have the same rights under the law as other people have.
Sep 4 2013: I agree ... I still do not think that is the major objections ...
1. Homosexual domestic violence among men alone dwarfs 500 to one the 1,317 hate crimes nationwide last year allegedly motivated, by disapproval of homosexuality, the FBI reported.
2. The Medical Institute of Sexual Health reports "homosexual men are at significantly increased risk of HIV/AIDS, hepatitis, anal cancer, gonorrhea, and gastrointestinal infections as a result of their sexual practices." While "women who have sex with women are at significantly higher risk of bacterial, breast cancer and ovarian cancer than are heterosexual women."
3. The Center for Disease Control reports men involved in homosexuality are 860 percent more likely to contract sexually transmitted disease, partially because they "have large numbers of anonymous partners, which can result in rapid, extensive transmission of STD's...threatening national HIV infection prevention efforts."
4. Oxford University's International Journal of Epidemiology reports "life expectancy at age 20 for gay and bisexual men is eight to 20 years less than for all men. If the same pattern of mortality continues, we estimate that nearly half of gay and bisexual men currently aged 20 will not reach their 65th birthday."
These types of reports are what scares the insurance and medical professions. It is also alarming to employers who will see sick leave and missed work days. The costs associated with any medical treatments in the areas mentioned above are off the chart. This has rewrite the actuarial charts for death payments. As profits go down the costs will always go up.
I also have friends who are in a same sex relationship .... they are good people. My lady friends wife just passed of cancer. I have been to their home often and love them both. The fight they had was never about the couple .... but rather rights and benefits.
We are on the same side ... just that I say the real war is about money.
Thanks .....

Harrisburg officially has a new mayor. Eric Papenfuse was sworn into office on Monday with a low-key ceremony followed by an eye-opening tour of the working conditions many city employees battle.
Prompt not pomp. Inauguration ceremonies for Eric Papenfuse were scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. Monday morning inside the Harrisburg City Government Center on Second Street. At 9:59 a.m., the program began with Communications Director Joyce Davis kicking off what was a short and sweet ceremony.
Roughly 200 people packed inside the main lobby to witness a new era. Harrisburg Police and American Legion Post 733 were on the color guard as Eric Papenfuse, his wife and their three children took part in the ceremony by leading everyone in the Pledge of Allegiance. Following a welcome prayer, Harrisburg's newest officials were sworn into office.
Incoming City Controller Charles DeBrunner and City Councilwoman Shamaine Daniels took the oath for the first time. Returning City Council members Ben Allatt, Eugenia Smith and Wanda Williams were also sworn in to refill their respective seats.
Eric Papenfuse spoke a few moments later and set the tone for the day and his administration.
"Today is not a day for speeches," he said. "Today was a day for rolling up our sleeves and getting to work."
Honorable District Justice Marsha Stewart led Papenfuse to take the oath to officially become Harrisburg's mayor.
All in all, the ceremony was less than 30 minutes. Following the inauguration, Papenfuse invited the media to tour several of the offices inside City Hall. Papenfuse and Police Chief Tom Carter led reporters through the city's Public Safety Department in what could only be described as deplorable.
At every turn there was a nest of exposed wires hanging from missing ceiling tiles with varying colors yellow stains from previous and fresh water damage. Many lights were out, hallways were dark, and the police department's break-room looked more like a prison cell. Chief Carter pointed out the mildew-drenched green carpet that he said was at least 30 to 35 years old.
Chief Carter said requests for repairs were ignored. When asked why police put up with two decades worth of disregard from past administrations, he replied, "We realize the greater of our good is to serve the citizens of the city. We put up with it because we're police officers, and some things you have to just put up with."
Papenfuse said he was stunned when he toured the police department on his own last week. The new mayor said it was unacceptable to have police officers work in such horrid conditions. More importantly, Papenfuse pointed out there is a direct correlation with officers' working conditions and the reason why recruitment is down and good officers often leave.
"We do have a morale issue in the police department," he said." We can change it. But we want to send the message that we're going to give them the support they need. They're not going to be in a second-rate back closet office space coping with a leaking ceiling."
Papenfuse vowed not to use public or tax dollars to fund the repairs, but is seeking sponsorship from individuals and companies. The tour also led media through various offices that showed outdated filing systems, a lack of organization and an overall need for efficiency, according to Papenfuse.
The tour concluded with a showing of the mayor's office. A photo of Papenfuse shaking President Obama's hand sat proudly on his desk following a recent visit to our nation's capital.
"There will be no money spent on any renovation here," Papenfuse strongly stated. "I may bring a bookcase from home and some prints and things. But this is not a problem. This was renovated four years ago.. If I would've been doing my own office, this would've been last after I fixed up some of the conditions for the police officers."
Besides a clean office, Papenfuse said former Mayor Linda Thompson left him a letter on the desk, one he preferred to keep private at the moment.
Along with the long list of structural repairs to city hall, Papenfuse also plans to mend relationships between departments and City Council.
"We're looking forward to doing new things; he has some great ideas," said City Council President Wanda Williams. "There are some things a full body council has to decide on. So, I can't make a decision for six other members."
On day one of the administration, Eric Papenfuse began to tally a running list of improvements that need to be made for a city on the road to recovery. One change that may seem minor to most, but shows a true mark of a new administration, was the removal of the metal detectors and armed police officer at the front desk. Papenfuse said he wanted that task done before the inauguration to make people feel welcome inside City Hall. He explained the officer could be used more appropriately in the police department. A hired city worker will manage the 'help desk' when people first walk into the main lobby.
Another change in practice is Papenfuse's decision not to have security detail or use a city vehicle for traveling in the immediate area. The new mayor is bogged down with a laundry list of issues and problems that outweigh the manpower and money at his disposal. But, according to Papenfuse, that is why he ran for mayor.
"I feel the weight and the importance and the magnitude of all that needs to get done," he said. "And I'm up to the task and I'm ready for the job."
Papenfuse said he will begin to announce his administration positions over the next week. On Tuesday, Papenfuse is scheduled to officially name Tom Carter to Chief of Police. The new mayor also has a meeting with Attorney General Kathleen Kane this week to discuss several investigations into past dealings involving the school district, incinerator and artifacts purchased by former Mayor Steve Reed.

LG's HeartRate earphones and other news for May 13, 2014
Today in the news, LG will soon be delivering iOS compatible earphones, Apple's spaceship campus is spotted from the air, and Apple's recent anti-poaching settlement is under dispute.
- LG has announced iOS-compatible earphones that will track the wearer's heart rate. The neat thing is that they're real, unlike some others I could mention. The aptly-named LG HeartRate Earphones work with the LG Fitness app for iPhone (free) and the Lifeband Touch, which reads information sent from the earphones about blood flow in the ears. Together, the app, earphones and wrist band make a nice little wearable fitness tracker. If you're into that sort of thing. LG expects to ship the HeartRate Earphones on May 18.
- Construction on Apple's spaceship campus is continuing as the outlines of the spaceship-shaped building begins to take shape, as noted by Fortune 2.0 via Apple Toolbox.
- According to Ars Technica, Michael Devine, a plaintiff in Silicon Valley's high-profile employee anti-poaching lawsuit, is protesting the recent $324 million settlement reached, claiming it is "unfair and unjust." He is asking for a trial, saying the class including the lawsuit wants their day in court.
- Apple was recently awarded U.S. Patent No. 8,723,824 for "Electronic devices with sidewall displays," which describes a wrap-around display for portable devices, reports AppleInsider.

OFA Round Table 'Certification' within Cloud Computing. Hero or Villain? 23rd November
Spaces are limited so please book here
The recent Communication from the Commission on 'Unleashing the Potential of Cloud Computing in Europe' identified a number of key actions including "A wider use of standards, the certification of cloud services to show they meet these standards and the endorsement of such certificates by regulatory authorities as indicating compliance with legal obligations will help cloud take-off".
Few would doubt the Commission's good intentions and indeed the use of standards to avoid lock-in, but is Certification the way to go?

I need to optimize 700 images in PNG in a batch process, but Photoshop only gives me the option to optimize the images and export them to JPG, when I want to mantain the images on PNG. Is there a way to do this on Photoshop or in another tool? You can see the screenshot following this link.
You can probably do this by creating an action and then batch processing:
Create the action
(there may also be some built in actions with Photoshop, I can't remember)
Then in Adobe Bridge
You want to use ImageMagick, its free and open source. Get it from http://www.imagemagick.org/script/index.php
Then use the "convert" function
You can try using "save for Web & Devices"
Some helpful links:
I hope this helps.
I found 'Riot - Radical Image Optimization Tool' perfect for batch converting images whilst retaining metadata

Gelobter addressed the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and the Genuine Progress Indicator (GPI) in his presentation. He attacked the way that the GDP statistics represent the economic and environmental situations. Hurricane Katrina is one example.
The GDP showed improvement after the stor hit New Orleans and relief efforts were underway.
"The GDP does not feel pain," Gelobter said.
He explained the GDP counts the following things as positives: the impacts of divorce, disease, crimes, accidents or the depleting of wetlands.
Thus the money spent for the recovery from Hurricane Katrina boosts the GDP.
The reason why the GDP does not reflect these kinds of tragedies as negatives is because it is "a gross tally of money spent goods and services purchased by households or government and business investments, regardless of weather they enhance out well-being or not."
The basic idea Redefining Progress promotes is a redefinition of economic status. This idea is the GPI, which represents all the things that the basic GDP does not recognize as major parts of our economy fluctuation between progress and regression.
Gelobter emphasized that the nation and world of individual communities must begin to look at things from a different perspective.
Gelobter continued, explaining it is not logical to calculate money spent and conclude that more spent equals positive growth.
In Gelobter's book, titled "The Soul of Environmentalism," he describes the importance of the Earth as human beings' habitat.
"What allows for the negligence of the environment," Gelobter explained, "is the fact that citizens are fed statistics that make us feel good about where our country stands financially and socially. For example the GDP."
If the government was using the GPI to represent economic gain and loss in the U.S. then Americans would be more concerned about the unevenness of money distribution and the perpetuation of that system.
"We must recognize the spirituality in our work," Gelobter said. "We must ask questions on personal levels, then on a planetary scale."
He explained that after this, the nation will be able to address the issue that are most pressing in a world of growing economic and social development.

What to Give
Gifts of Cash
The simplest way to make a gift to WKU is online at www.wku.edu/makeagift. You may also write a check to the WKU Foundation. When you itemize your deductions, your gifts of cash may be deducted on your federal income tax return. Amounts up to 50 percent of your adjusted gross income may be deducted during the year of the gift, with any excess deductions carried forward for up to five additional years. Your actual savings depend on your tax rate and other factors. Generally, the higher the tax rate, the greater your savings. Cash gifts are considered transferred on the date they are hand-delivered or mailed. For example, although a year-end gift might not be received until January, it is still deductible for the previous year if it has a December postmark.
Gifts of Appreciated Securities
Giving stocks and bonds that have increased in value provides even greater tax benefits than gifts of cash. The market value of the securities is deductible (subject to applicable limitations), and you also avoid paying capital gains tax on the appreciation. You may generally deduct gifts in the form of appreciated property up to 30 percent of your adjusted gross income with any excess deductible over the next five years.
Gifts of Closely Held Stock
In some situations, a donor may wish to make a gift of stock in a closely held corporation. If you own highly appreciated stock in a company that has significant cash reserves, this may be the best way for you to make a sizeable gift. When closely held stock is gifted, the donor is usually entitled to receive a charitable income tax deduction for the appraised value of the stock, in an amount up to 30 percent of adjusted growth income. Like gifts of appreciated securities and cash, any excess may be carried over into the next five years. This gift is beneficial because it allows the donor to make a gift without realizing capital gains tax on the appreciated value of the stock, and it allows the corporation to use a potentially taxable cash surplus for philanthropic purposes.
Gifts of Real Estate
A gift of real estate can consist of almost any type of property: a primary residence, a vacation home, a farm or ranch, a commercial building, subdivision lots or an undeveloped parcel. Such a gift will provide a charitable deduction for the full fair market value of the gift up to 30 percent of your adjusted gross income if you have held it for more than one year. The usual five-year carry-over also applies.
Through various methods of managing property and arranging for its distribution to family and others, you can minimize taxes and worries for your heirs. You may also be able to arrange a supplemental income for retirement through a charitable trust as part of your gift, or give a home while continuing to live there.
You will need to have your gift of real estate appraised by an independent appraiser to determine the value of your deduction, and you should first consult with the WKU Foundation to make sure your real estate is appropriate to the needs of the University.
Gifts of Objects
Donations of artwork, books, equipment and antique furniture are sometimes appropriate gifts to WKU. Before making a gift of tangible personal property, however, please consult with the University to confirm your gift can be used as you wish while also meeting the needs of WKU. If your gift is valued at $5,000 or more, you must have an independent appraisal within 60 days of the gift's transfer to WKU to determine the value of your deduction.

A deputy director at the Illinois Department of Natural Resources resigned Thursday just hours after FOX 32 confronted DNR officials with evidence that he needed a gone fishin' sign on his door last summer, while he was claiming to be sick.
"I'm an avid hunter and fisherman. I believe in the second amendment. And I believe in protecting our rights," DNR official Travis Loyd said in 2007.
When downstater Travis Loyd ran for the General Assembly seven years ago and lost, he made no secret of his love for hunting and fishing.
He makes no secret of it these days either.
His Facebook page is filled with photos of his accomplishments as a professional bass fisherman on the WALMART FLW Tour.
He won $10,500 in 2012 and $3,886 catching fish last summer.
Yet, those bass fishing tournaments aren't his primary income.
Last year, according to the Illinois comptroller's office, he earned $92,809.04 in his full-time job as Deputy Director for the Department of Natural Resources.
So, how did he manage to squeeze in four-day fishing tournaments in Florida, Alabama Arkansas, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Michigan and still handle his state job?
Using the Freedom of Information Act, FOX 32 obtained Loyd's time sheets. They show that between May 1 and mid-August last summer, about three and half months, the deputy director put in just seven and half hours working for the state.
He took 12 and a half vacation days in May, no problem there, but then claimed he was on sick leave for 44 consecutive days, not including weekends.
According to the WALMART FLW fishing tournament website, on five specific days when Loyd was using sick leave he was fishing for dollars in those tournaments.
Loyd had accumulated his unused sick days during his four years with the DNR, but state regulations say, "sick leave may be used for illness, disability, or injury of the employee, appointments with the doctor, dentist or other professional medical practitioner."
There's no mention of going fishing.
Thursday night, DNR officials now agree. After FOX 32 raised questions, the agency told FOX 32 it "has zero tolerance for any misconduct by our employees. As soon as this situation came to light, we moved swiftly to address it. The individual has resigned."
The DNR won't say if the investigation continues, but there are still a lot of questions here.
How could Loyd's supervisors not wonder about a deputy director who was off almost all summer.
In fact, when he stopped using his sick days, someone gave him nine more days off, at least this time, without pay.

Litigators at large law firms spend an inordinate (and depressing) amount of time on discovery disputes. They bombard poor magistrate judges with motions to compel. They bicker over deposition timing and location. They compile massive privilege logs. They file letter briefs with the court, explaining their entitlement to certain documents that opposing counsel is withholding, without justification.
Partners who work on such matters often say to their associates, "Find me a case in which a judge sanctioned a party for failure to comply with discovery obligations — preferably a case in which the non-compliance is exactly what opposing counsel is doing here, and ideally featuring soaring rhetoric about the importance of following discovery rules." The associate spends several hours on Westlaw or Lexis, then returns empty-handed; there was nothing quite on-point. There was certainly no soaring rhetoric.
This shouldn't be surprising. Do you think successful lawyers give up the practice of law in order to keep dealing with discovery-related headaches, for a fraction of what they earned in the private sector? Of course not. Federal district judges prefer to write published opinions about Sexy Constitutional Issues, leaving their magistrates to oversee the discovery playpen. In the rare discovery-related cases that do go up on appeal, federal circuit judges affirm as quickly and summarily as possible, so they can get back to the fun stuff. [FN1]
If you're a Biglaw litigator searching for a published opinion addressing discovery issues, well, today is your lucky day. Check out this great opinion, just handed down — not by a mere magistrate or district judge, but by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit….

Counseling & Applied Educational Psychology
Certificate of Advanced Graduate Studies in Applied Behavior Analysis
Print this Page Home > Applied Psychology > Certificate of Advanced Graduate Studies in Applied Behavior Analysis
Rolling Admissions
Applications due by 8/1 for Fall semester and 12/1 for Spring semester
The 30-credit Northeastern University Certificate of Advanced Graduate Studies (CAGS) degree is offered to post-master's degree individuals seeking to become a Board Certified Applied Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and to develop a specific area of clinical expertise within applied behavior analysis.
Students initially complete six courses that prepare them to take the Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BABC) exam. Specialized clinical expertise is then developed through four three-credit advanced courses that focus on a single area such as Autism, Teaching Technology, and Early Intervention. The courses include an initial foundation course which provides the background for two intervention courses. The sequence is concluded with a capstone course in which the students complete a literature review that explores the research and clinical practices related to a single problem within the area of specialization.
All courses, which are presented in an online or hybrid format, take advantage of technological advances that facilitate student learning. Though project requirements, which are the foundation of the program design, students become competent in using fundamental applied behavioral procedures. An optional structured supervision program, which is available through the Learning Partnership Program, allows students to acquire the supervision hours required to take the BCBA exam.
Applicants must have a master's degree in psychology, special education, or a related field and experience working with individuals with special needs. It is expected that students will be employed either in an educational or the human services agency concurrent with their enrollment in the program.

What is a Rent Zestimate
A Rent Zestimate® (pronounced Zest-ti-met, rhymes with estimate) is Zillow's estimated monthly rent price, computed using a proprietary formula. It is a starting point in determining the monthly rental price for a specific property. The Rent Zestimate is pulled from public property data and similar local properties listed for rent; there may be special features, location, and market conditions our algorithms have not taken into account. Variations in rental price can also occur because of negotiation factors, special incentives, and length of lease. We encourage renters and landlords to supplement Zillow's information by doing additional research such as:
- Talk to a local real estate agent, or property manager that specializes in rentals
- Compare rental to other nearby apartment and homes for rent on Zillow
- Visit the rental (whenever possible)

John Burkoff on Governor's Comments Regarding Sandusky Case
Professor John Burkoff commented on the PA Governor Tom Corbett's statements about the investigation into former Penn State Coach Jerry Sandusky. Corbett led the investigation when he was PA's attorney general before becoming governor. Corbett says that as attorney general, his office did not uncover the evidence discussed in last week's comprehensive report by Louis Freeh because the former administration of Penn State did not cooperate with his investigation when his office issued subpoenas. According to Professor Burkoff, "clearly, the governor feels like Penn State dragged its feet initially."
Read Professor Burkoff's comments in the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review here.

Noodles with a sour cream sauce, salty bacon and the surprise of the bunch – cabbage! They come together in no time at all to make a comforting and hearty side dish that can fill in as a main.
Michael Symon made this in 5 minutes on his new show, The Chew. Have you seen it? I'm just a wee bit addicted to it, mostly because I like hearing Symon giggle and I like his style of cooking. It brings me joy. Not to mention Carla from Top Chef is a part of it too. Love her. Hootie-hoo….

The Miami Dolphins continued their 3-day Organized Training Activities on Wednesday. The media was not allowed in on this practice (nor will they be let into Thursday's). However, when they were there on Tuesday, we found out some interesting (albeit very early) information about what the Dolphins will look like when camp begins in July. Obviously, we are still almost 2 months away from the start of training camp…but positional battles have already started. And, by the looks of things, there will be plenty of positional battles for roster spots before final cuts are made.
QB Battle - This will probably be the most talked about positional battle in Dolphins camp. The Dolphins have a QB that helped lead the team to 6 wins in their final 6 games…..They also have a QB that went to the Pro Bowl in the last season he played…..AND, oh yeah, the Dolphins have a quarterback that was selected with a top 10 draft selection. Fans will obviously want Tannehill to look great and win the battle. More likely, it will be Garrard or Moore that win the battle. As crazy as it sounds, if he's healthy, Garrard could be the winner, having played in a west coast offense before. I'm not discounting Moore, but the system is new to him and doesn't necessarily play to his strengths.
O-Line - With Jonathan Martin still in school, Lydon Murtha is working at right tackle in this week's Dolphins OTA. Murtha will probably have an uphill battle for the starting RT spot, but if he shows well now, it could help him later in the offseason. At right guard, media types think that John Jerry has the edge. Jerry looked good last year, but needs to take another step to help solidify the Dolphins offensive line. He'll battle with Artis Hicks and Nate Garner for the starting RG spot.
Wide Receiver - After quarterback, this will probably be the most talked about battle in Dolphins camp. Brian Hartline and Davone Bess are likely the only players assured of making the team. Behind them there is a large number of young players that will be fighting it out to make the team. Julius Pruitt, Marlon Moore, Roberto Wallace, Clyde Gates, BJ Cunningham, Rishard Matthews, Legadu Naanee, and Jeff Fuller will be battling for what is likely to be 3 or 4 spots on the roster. It's wide open, so if these guys want to make the roster, they'll need to stand out in front of the Dolphins coaching staff.
Safety - On the opening day of this week's OTA, Rashad Jones and Chris Clemons were the Dolphins starting safeties. They're battling with Jimmy Wilson and Tyrell Johnson among others. I'm interested to see what new Dolphins defensive coordinator, Kevin Coyle, can do with this group.
Linebackers/D-Line - The Dolphins first team linebackers were Kevin Burnett (weakside LB), Karlos Dansby (middle LB), and Koa Misi (strongside LB). This is the way the Dolphins would line up in a 4-3 defense, which the Dolphins are supposedly incorporating more for 2012. The D-Line in this 4-3 formation was Cameron Wake (DE), Jared Odrick (DE), Paul Soliai (DT), and Randy Starks (DT). I love the fact that big Paul could be playing defensive tackle and won't have to face constant double teams. This front 7 could be great against the run….but how will it do against the pass? If Olivier Vernon can develop quickly, he could be used as a situational pass rusher the way Jason Taylor was last year. The Dolphins MUST find someone to create pressure opposite Cameron Wake.
With all of these battles, I really can't wait for training camp to get here. Football isn't THAT far away and these OTAs are just the beginning. I'm excited by the positional battles and to see the new up-tempo offense Joe Philbin is installing. Hopefully in 2012, Dolphins football will again be exciting for us all!

Remember when you used to go out on the town almost every night of the week, sampling the ripe fruits of your town's musical loins? Are those days gone, perhaps replaced by the fruit of your own loins and the responsibilities of adulthood? A new concert series unfolding at the Harwood Art Center aims to soothe the sonic aches of parents in this particular predicament.
It's a good thing that Mr. Robert "Kool" Bell didn't answer his cell phone when I first tried to call him. Had he picked up, I wouldn't have had the pleasure of hearing his groovy voice mail greeting: "You have reached Kool, and it's kool to leave a message."
Not long ago, the musical road between the 'Burque and El Chuco (that's El Paso, Texas, to you) was well-traveled. It was easy to find records by Paseños such as Faction X, Not So Happy or Fall On Deaf Ears. Since many Tejano punks were from El Barrio de Ysleta with familia across the border, they also opened that path to exciting Juárez outfits like Setenta Dos Horas. In El Chuco one evening, my greatest regret was having to decline an invitation to a show en otro lado over the Rio Grande. A guero like me couldn't have asked for a better escort, but being on the New Mexico state payroll I had to work early next morning with a clear head sin crudo.

County announces "MTI Day"
Date: September 29, 2009
by: The Observer Staff
The Manatee County School Board, the Manatee County Board of County Commissioners, the City of Bradenton and the City of Palmetto will all honor Manatee Technical Institute this week for winning the SkillsUSA National Championship for six consecutive years.
As a result, Wednesday, Sept. 30, is officially being proclaimed as "MTI Day."
To celebrate this special day, MTI will hold an Open House at both campuses from noon to 3 p.m. Many activities will be open to the public, to all students and to family and friends. The main event will be MTI's Amazing Race and Open House at the Main Campus, 5603 34th St. W., Bradenton. The East Campus Open House will be located at 5520 Lakewood Ranch Blvd., Lakewood Ranch.
"The excitement is growing on both campuses as we draw closer to our Open House," said Jane von Hahmann, business and industry service specialist for the School District of Manatee County. "It is such an honor to have this day officially designated 'MTI Day' in Manatee County. We invite everyone to participate in a day of celebration and to visit the great programs we have to offer."
At the race, teams of four participants will follow a map, solve clues, and compete for prizes. Each member of the first place team will receive a $50 gift card. Each member of the next four teams to finish will receive a $15 iTunes gift card. Gifts are provided by the MTI Foundation.
During the open house, all MTI programs will be open to visit. MTI Day will provide the opportunity to learn about the school and the post-secondary education opportunities that MTI has to offer.
For more information about MTI Day, contact Heather Humphrey, 751-7900, Ext. 2243.

The prosecutor in the Jodi Arias case is getting quite a following around the country because of his aggressive style in the courtroom.
The prosecutor's name is Juan Martinez. We've talked about him a lot over the last few months. Even before this case, he was known as a pit bull in the courtroom. But from here on out, he may be known as the most famous lawyer in Arizona.
Just about everyone watching the Arias trial has an opinion about prosecutor Juan Martinez's style. It's to the point, and it's aggressive.
"I'm not asking you about that."
"You still lied to him didn't you?"
"How is it that you are not remembering what you are saying?"
"Were you crying when you were shooting him? Were you crying when you stabbing him?"
But the bottom line is, a lot of people like it.
The veteran prosecutor has become a national celebrity. More than 11,000 people are on the Juan Martinez Facebook page. They say they like what they see.
"It's consumed my life, it's taking up a great deal of my time," says Jess Ismond.
Jess Ismond lives in New Mexico, and was immediately drawn to Martinez's courtroom performance, so she created the fan page.
"The main point is to show support for Juan Martinez. I welcome all opinions but if they are expressing any opinions against them we shut them down."
And yes -- she says Martinez knows about the site.
She even met the prosecutor in person when she traveled from New Mexico to be in court.
"He acknowledged it. I don't think he goes on it but he has people fill him in about it and he's flattered about it," says Ismond. "He just expressed how he couldn't say how good it made him feel, that there were so many supporters and that this page exists for him."
Martinez in court: "Why don't you know how to answer that, you are the one who brought it up?"
"I know he's received a lot of criticism about his style being aggressive, but I feel that there are many more people that see him as inspirational. People want to see justice happen," says Ismond.
Jodi Arias is facing the death penalty in this case. It's interesting to note –only one other woman from Maricopa County is on death row -- and the prosecutor who put her there was Juan Martinez.

Aging & Dietary Supplements (cont.)
For example, a vitamin A intake of 100% DV (Daily Value) means the supplement is giving you the full amount of vitamin A you need each day. This is in addition to what you are getting from your food.
Some people might think that if a little is good, a lot must be better. But, that doesn't necessarily apply to vitamins and minerals. Depending on the supplement, your age, and your health, taking more than 100% DV could be harmful to your health. Also, if your body cannot use the entire supplement you take, you've wasted money. Finally, large doses of some vitamins and minerals can also keep your prescription medications from working as they should.
Anything Special For People Over 50?
Even if you eat a good variety of foods, if you are over 50, you might need certain supplements. Talk to your doctor or a registered dietitian. Depending on your needs, he or she might suggest you get the following amounts from food and, if needed, supplements:
What Are Antioxidants?
You may have heard about the possible benefits of antioxidants, natural substances found in food. Right now, there is no proof that large doses of antioxidants will prevent chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, or cataracts. Eating fruits and vegetables (at least five servings a day) rather than taking a supplement is the best way to get antioxidants. Vegetable oil and nuts are also good sources of some antioxidants. Non-dairy calcium sources are especially good for people who cannot use dairy products.
What About Herbal Supplements?
You may have heard of ginkgo biloba, ginseng, Echinacea, or black cohosh. These are examples of herbal supplements. They are dietary supplements that come from certain plants. It's easy to think they are safe because they come from plants. And, although herbal supplements are not approved as drugs, some are being studied as possible treatments for illness. But, it's still too soon to tell. Remember some strong poisons like hemlock and prescription medicines such as cancer drugs come from plants as well. You need to be careful.
When you use any dietary supplement, including herbals, for a health problem, you are using that supplement as a drug. Because their ingredients may have an effect on your body, they can interfere with medications you may already be taking. Some herbal supplements can also cause serious side effects such as high blood pressure, nausea, diarrhea, constipation, fainting, headaches, seizures, heart attack, or stroke.
What's Best For Me?
If you are thinking about using dietary supplements for any reason, remember:

Residency in Pathology
Westchester Medical Center
Residency in Pathology - Anatomic & Clinical Pathology
John T. Fallon III, M.D., Ph.D.
Program Director
Humayun K. Islam, M.D., Ph.D.
Medical Center is a 668 bed hospital located on the campus and near
the Basic Sciences Building of New York Medical College, which
houses the research and undergraduate teaching facilities of the
Department of Pathology. The Medical Center serves as a referral
center for the region comprising seven counties to the north of New
York City. Approximately 16,000 surgical specimens, 110 autopsies,
and approximately 8,000,000 clinical laboratory tests are accessed
each year. The new Maria Fareri Children's Hospital which opened in
September, 2004, adjoins the main hospital and is an architecturally
unique, "kid-friendly" three story building of 200,000 sq. ft. with
114 acute care beds.
Programs Offered
Fully approved pathology residency programs are offered in anatomic
pathology, clinical pathology (three years) and combined anatomic
and clinical pathology (four years). The residents are assigned to
anatomic pathology or clinical pathology in alternate years.
Anatomic pathology training includes surgical pathology, autopsy
pathology, hematopathology, renal pathology, and neuropathology,
immunohistochemical and electron microscopic applications in
diagnostic pathology, and rotations in cytopathology, cytogenetics
including molecular genetics, and forensic pathology. The integrated
two-year program of clinical pathology encompasses clinical
chemistry, hematology, transfusion medicine, transplant immunology,
flow cytometry, medical microbiology, immunology, serology and
laboratory management.
All pathology residents are expected to undertake some investigative
studies during the four-year program, some of which may lead to
publication. For residents who wish to gain additional experience in
pathology research, the Valhalla campus and the Cancer Research
Institute offer the opportunity to participate in a number of
ongoing projects under the direction of a departmental faculty
member. The residents have full access to the library facilities of
New York Medical College and access to medical literature through
computers in the Residents' room. They attend monthly meetings of
New York Pathological Society and Westchester Pathology Society in
addition to daily departmental conferences and certain clinical
conferences. In their senior year residents may attend a national
meeting at hospital expense; expenses may be covered by the
department for other national meetings at which the resident
presents research papers or posters. The Chief Resident and
qualified senior residents may receive appointments as Instructors
in the Medical College and participate in the education of sophomore
medical students.
and Numbers of Appointments
Twelve positions
are available at the Valhalla Campus: generally two PGY-1 openings
are offered each July. Residents in the Valhalla program are
assigned full time to Westchester Medical Center. All elective and
required rotations including forensic pathology and cytogenetics are
offered within the campus.
and Maintenance
Stipends are
competitive with other academic institutions. A limited number of
on-campus apartments are available for married house staff at the
Westchester campus. All staff members are provided with professional
liability insurance, hospitalization and medical care, uniforms and
uniform laundry.
