I can tell that 2013 is going to be a pretty exciting year full of big changes! One thing that I've wanted to do for a long time is eat mainly organic food and another is to officially cut out dairy. This is why I am doing a 30 Day Organic Vegan Challenge.
To ensure the success of the challenge, I am making some easy to follow guidelines. If you'd like to join me, please do! We can discuss progress via twitter and share recipes Anybody looking to join in is very welcome!
I plan on starting on Thursday the 3rd of January and the official challenge end date will be the 1st of February. I'm hoping that I enjoy it so much that I can continue the lifestyle.
Here are the guidelines:
- No Dairy – milk, cheese, eggs, yogurt, ice cream etc
- No meat or fish
- 80-90% organic fruit and vegetables
- Organic moisturiser and hair products
- Mineral makeup when possible (young blood foundation)
- Organic, natural deodorant
- 1 x Cheat meal per week that must be organic and dairy free
- Try to have three ultimate health smoothies per week (RECIPE COMING)
- Coffee is ok but must also be organic
- Home made cleaning products instead of chemical ones
- No soft drinks
- Print out your 30 day challenge planner and mark off each day as you go [30 Day Planner Here]
What I'm hoping to achieve:
Eating an organic diet has always seemed very unattainable due to the price. I plan to sacrifice spending money on clothing and completely cut out unnecessary purchases in order to afford to do this! Check out my 'Cheap Ways to Eat Organic Food' post.
I am hoping that I will discover ways to incorporate more organic food into my diet in every day life after the 30 days. Perhaps I will be more motivated to take care of my vegetable garden.
Also, any weight loss will be a bonus as I am going on a trip to Cairns in February and would like to be in great shape for that as I'll be in swimwear every day.
What YOU could achieve:
You could lose weight and have more energy! If you live in the USA or UK you will probably find that eating organic food isn't ridiculously expensive and could almost be an easy switch?
Less pesticides and chemicals ingested could give you better overall health and give you a sense of accomplishment!
How to start?
Visit your local Wholefoods, Flannerys or equivalent and stock up on everything you need. A trip to your local organic markets on the weekend will help you save money on produce while supporting your local farmers.
Print out my FREE 30 day challenge planner and make a 100% commitment to completing the challenge.
Want daily motivation?
Enter your email below to subscribe to 30 days of motivation. Even if you aren't joining in on the challenge, you will still benefit from the quotes and encouragement. I'll be sending positive, encouraging and supportive emails for the next 30 days. They will be short and sweet – just a daily 'pep talk' to keep you on track!

We wrote a bit about Cool Earth Solar a few months back. Frankly, the idea seems pretty genius to me. Some folks work to squeeze every possible watt out of sunlight with ultra-reflective (extremely expensive) mirrors. But Cool Earth Solar wants to make the 50 mg viagra mirror as cheap as possible, in order to just try! buy cheap online levitra squeeze every possible watt out of a every single dollar.
They're doing it by creating solar collecting balloons. The top of the balloon is http://www.roli-guggers.de/canadian-pharmacy-scam transparent, while the back of the balloon is reflective. While some of the power will be lost because of imperfect transparency and viagra canada pharmacy reflectivity, the "mirrors" cost exponentially less than any other solar concentrator on the market.
The rounded mirror backing focuses the sun on a small area of photovoltaic material. The result is that the same amount of cialis sunlight can be captured with significantly less of the (expensive) photovoltaic material. Making the concentrating mirror cheap just further reduces the only here cialis endurance costs.
Because the devices would be very light, they could be easily mounted on wire structures that would be used to keep them perpendicular to the sun's light. They're hoping to be able to produce power at roughly the costs of natural gas. With California's subsidies that would actually make it one of the cheapest sources of power available. They're already in discussions with several utility companies about the possibility of selling power to them. The $21M will likely only be enough for one pilot plant. But if that's successful, it won't take long for at least one zero to get added on to soft cialis tablets that total.
That's some seriously clever engineering right there. Lets just hope they can stand up to the elements.

On the subject of birds and wind power, modern wind turbines are a relatively low risk to birds. The little old ones were a more significant threat, but the ones being installed now are so high and turn relatively slowly, so the birds seem to avoid them.

Also, the effectiveness of a parabolic reflector is dependent on the curve of the parabola and the focal point being correct. As the sun heats the air in the bubble, it will expand, causing the focal point of www.kachinwomen.com the parabola to change, and basically making the position of the (apparently) stationary PV panel wrong. Maybe the www.chemistswithoutborders.org low cost of the unit is viagra alternative a fair trade for the "touch and go" aspect of the focal point?

The shape made by the buy viagra overnight delivery inflated reflective meniscus however is neither a parabola or spherical, it is in practice a Hencky curve, the slope of where to find levitra the curve being greater towards the outer edge of the reflective area. The outer edges of the concentrator thus have a shorter focal length than the inner parts. The solution to this is to have a short, tubular shaped collector, not a disc. However this will reduce the maximum available concentration ratio of the collector, the maximum available temperature, and thus reducing the overall maximum collector efficiency. However, some thought has to be given to the possible failure that could occure if hot air heated to 1000+C were to i need viagra today rise inside the balloon and overheat the upper membrane! It seems that the concentration ratio is low enough for this not to be a problem, clearly with is current arrangement. Now just how big can these things be scaled up by, until other factors intervene?....

Learn More About Working at CBO and the Agency's Career Opportunities
March 29, 2011
Today CBO released the fifth of its statutory reports on transactions undertaken as part of the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP)—the program established in October 2008 to enable the Department of the Treasury to promote stability in financial markets through the purchase and guarantee of "troubled assets." The estimate of the cost of the TARP's transactions provided in this report is the same as that provided in CBO's most recent baseline budget projections issued on March 18.
CBO's Estimate of the Cost of the TARP's Transactions: $19 Billion
CBO's analysis reflects transactions completed, outstanding, and anticipated under the TARP as of March 3, 2011. In sum:
- CBO estimates that the cost to the federal government of the TARP's transactions (also referred to in the report as the subsidy cost), including grants for mortgage programs that have not been made yet, will amount to $19 billion.
- That cost stems largely from assistance to American International Group, aid to the automotive industry, and grant programs aimed at avoiding foreclosures: CBO estimates a cost of $41 billion for providing those three types of assistance. Other transactions with financial institutions will, taken together, yield a net gain of $22 billion to the federal government, CBO estimates.
- CBO's current estimate of the cost of the TARP's transactions is $6 billion less than the $25 billion estimate shown in the agency's November 2010 report on the TARP and in its January 2011 baseline projections. The reduction in the estimated cost results primarily from a lower assessment of losses from assistance provided to the automotive industry.
- CBO's estimate is well below OMB's latest estimate of $64 billion, largely because of different assessments of the cost of the Treasury's housing programs under the TARP.
The Costs Are Much Lower Than Originally Anticipated
When the TARP was created, the U.S. financial system was in a precarious condition, and the transactions envisioned and ultimately undertaken engendered substantial financial risk for the federal government. The costs directly associated with the TARP, when taken in isolation, have come out toward the low end of the range of possible outcomes anticipated when the program was launched; however, funds invested, loaned, or granted to participating institutions through the Federal Reserve and other government entities helped limit those costs. About 60 percent of the amounts disbursed to date has been repaid. Overall, the outcomes of most transactions made through the TARP were favorable for the federal government.

This report was prepared by Avi Lerner of CBO's Budget Analysis Division.

Great news on Backstrom surgery; Wild signs McMillan to entry-level dealPosted on April 24th, 2009 – 11:33 AM
By Michael Russo
From the Wild: Surgery on Niklas Backstrom's left hip went better than hoped today. Dr. Philippon reported that he corrected the issues in Backstrom's left hip (including a labral deficiency, which had not show up on the radiography), and the cartilage damage was less than feared, so no microfracture was necessary. Backstrom's recovery time was reduced and the doctor now believes he will be full-go in about 12 weeks.
The Wild signed Carson McMillan to a three-year deal.
McMillan, 20, recorded career-highs with 31 goals, 41 assists, 72 points and 93 penalty minutes (PIM) in 68 games during his fourth season with the Calgary Hitmen of the Western Hockey League (WHL) in 2008-09. The 6-foot-1, 206-pound native of Brandon, Manitoba added seven game-winning goals, five power play tallies and four shorthanded goals helping lead Calgary to a 59-9-3-1 regular season record. He has tallied eight points (2-6=8) in 12 playoff games this season. The Hitmen are undefeated in 12 playoff matches and will play either Kelowna or Vancouver in the WHL Championship. The winner of the WHL Championship series will advance to the Memorial Cup.
McMillan was selected by Minnesota in the seventh round (200th overall) of the 2007 NHL Entry Draft.
Here is the story I wrote on Carson last month.
Since this story ran, Cody Almond signed. This means four of the Wild's five picks from 2007 are signed right now.
Wild had until June 1 to sign him, or the team would have lost his rights.

My bestest friend Mady and I came up with a fun little challenge - we each designed a character. The character could be any gender and anything we wanted. We set a time limit and when the clock struck whenever, we had to show each other what we had.
And no matter what we had, our characters had to be a couple. And we had to figure out how that happened and what their relationship is like.
So this is our gay couple - I made Gil Belcher and she made Simon Paisley. Simon is a Northern bunny - rabbit of a man from Leeds and Gil is the front man of a mediocre Rockabilly band from the Bayou touring in London. He has bad facial scaring from cystic acne and truly believes he's a mutant alligator man because of this.
(I will be drawing them all the time. You're welcome.)
This exercise was stupid fun! DO IT EVERYONE!

Blood Thinners for Heart Failure
Topic Overview
If you are at risk for developing a blood clot in your heart, you might take a blood thinning medicine, also called an anticoagulant. A blood thinner doesn't really thin your blood. It works by increasing the time it takes for blood clots to form. This medicine also keeps an existing clot from getting larger. An example of a blood thinner is warfarin.
Blood clots in the heart are a risk factor for the type of stroke that is caused by a small piece of the clot breaking off and traveling to the brain. Blood clots can also happen in your legs. If these blood clots move to your lungs, they can cause a life-threatening pulmonary embolism.
If you have heart failure, you might take warfarin if you:
Some doctors also prescribe warfarin when the percentage of blood pumped out of the heart with each beat (ejection fraction) is very low, because the lower the ejection fraction, the higher your risk of forming a blood clot and having a stroke. But doctors do not agree on how low the ejection fraction needs to be to warrant warfarin therapy, and some doctors do not prescribe warfarin based on the ejection fraction alone.
Safety when you take blood thinners
Because warfarin slows the amount of time it takes for your blood to clot, you need to take extra steps avoid bleeding problems. These steps include:

The Toledo teen who admitted to bringing a gun into Raymer Elementary School in March was sentenced to a youth treatment center Friday.
The judge sentenced the 15-year-old boy to the center instead of sending him to jail. If sent to jail, he could have been incarcerated until he was 21.
There is no set timeframe for his stay; he will be released from the youth treatment center once he has cleared an evaluation process.
Police say a school employee found the .38 handgun in the pocket of a student's jacket while looking for a missing coat March 22. According to police, the student admitted to buying the gun from someone on the street, but never showed anyone the gun or made threats.
The teen has been suspended from school.
Jon Monk was in the courtroom and will have more on the case tonight on WTOL 11 News at 6.

Every day we like to shine a spotlight on people doing amazing work- both with Charity Miles and without. Today we're featuring Martin Renaud, an endurance athlete and Ironman, who has lost over 100 pounds! "I first entered the world of endurance athleticism in 2008 when I joined Team in Training to honor a friend's mother and to get in shape," Renaud explained. "What I thought would be a one-time event became an addiction and life-style change. In the time since that event, I've completed over 60 endurance events including four Ironman-distance events. I'm currently raising money for the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation and training for Ironman Cairns in June 2014 and Ironman Chattanooga in September 2014."
What is your greatest accomplishment as of late?

Images from a war, through the eyes of a photographer who was there, an exhibit being show in Shreveport now, is the work of an East Texas Vietnam veteran.
The exhibit called In the Shadow of Danger being shown at the Norton art gallery in Shreveport, shot by then 23-year-old Army Photographer Bob Spangler of Longview.
"I held on to everything I brought back from Vietnam with the hope that someday showing them somewhere. I like to say this is a 40 year past due thank you to the veterans of the Vietnam war," says Spangler.
With the 196th infantry brigade, Spangler saw the realities of war and the different way soldiers were treated then, and now.
"It's really a great reception for troops coming home from Iraq and Afghanistan, that wasn't the case back during the Vietnam war. They were just answering their country's call to duty, they were spit on they were ridiculed called baby killers," he says.
The exhibit shows the day to day life of a soldier, and the quiet honor with which they served.
"It shows life on the fire bases, the helicopters. Trying to bring some honor and some recognition to the veterans of Vietnam. Most vets have pushed Vietnam to a back corner of their mind and they haven't talked about it for 40 years," Spangler says.
The hurt is still there, Spangler chokes when he talks of the vets that see his photo's.
"A veteran recently I sat down with, for the first time he sat down and spoke for a couple of hours about Vietnam," he says.
And for Spangler himself, a chance to heal old wounds.
"Its been our prayer that god would use these pictures to minister and heal wounds. Pull those demons out of the backs of their minds and deal with it once and for all," says Spangler.
'In the shadow of danger' will be on display at the 'R.W. Norton' art gallery at 4747 Creswell Avenue in Shreveport until October 14. Spangler says he may bring the exhibit to Longview for an event in February of next year.

Pretty big game coming up in the next few days. USC is favored by 10.5. This game can shatter one of the teams chances at the BCS game, in which many favored both to be in. Hazelton and Wells are still out but I think Wells is closer to returning. USC's first game proved that they were running on all cylinders. OSU didn't play so well last week and it cost them 2 spots in the rankings.
Regardless of who you are cheering for or against this will be one heck of a game!
I will be heading to USC around noon to tailgate before the big game.
Fight On!

Burnsville police are investigating after a man was fatally shot at Nina's Grill in Burnsville early Sunday morning.
Officers were called to 2510 Horizon Drive on a report of a shooting at 1:58 a.m. Upon arrival, police found a dead man in the parking lot.
Surveillance footage from the restaurant is now in the hands of police, who say an argument between two men spilled out into the parking lot at closing time.
Family members identified the victim as 22-year-old Palagor Jobi, of Burnsville, and say he was a sophomore at Normandale Community College.
Jobi and his family moved to Minnesota from Ethiopia in 1993, and dozens of his loved ones traveled from across the state to mourn together at the scene of the shooting. None of Jobi's loved ones had any information on who may have shot him or what the motive may have been.
Dakota County records indicate Jobi has been arrested six times in the past three years on charges of fraud, DUI, minor consumption and probation violations. The mug shot contained in this story stems from a 2011 charge of careless driving.
Jobi has also been charged in Scott County, with three previous theft arrests and two outstanding charges of fifth-degree assault and obstruction.
No suspect was found after an extensive search of the area, and investigators say they have no suspect information at this time. Anyone with information about the shooting is therefore urged to call Investigator Dawn Johnson at 952-895-4594.

The Voice had a little fun Wednesday with Blake Shelton for his 38th birthday. The team at the show covered his trailer with some old pictures of the singer looking extra vintage with his signature mullet and a great big Blake Shelton smile. The pictures are captioned "my apologies," "forgive me" and "I'm sorry."
Blake's fellow coach on The Voice Adam Levine also planted a kiss on Shelton for his big day, which The Voice made a gif out of and tweeted out ! The picture was captioned, "Birthday kisses from @blakeshelton's favorite bro! #TheVoice."
Blake's wife, Miranda Lambert , posted an adorable picture of Blake as a kid with the caption, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my best friend in the whole world! @blakeshelton I love you! (And your dimples!)"
So, what was the best gift Blake got for his birthday? He tweeted Wednesday, "Few things in my life have made my heart swell up like the birthday text I got from Earl Thomas Conley this morning… #hero."

When it comes to helping mentally ill criminals get treatment, Florida is at the bottom.
"We're last in the country for mental health funding," stated Bob Dillinger, the public defender for Pinellas and Pasco counties. "Actually we are 51st in per-capita spending behind not only every state but Puerto Rico as well. We have not taken a proactive approach in Florida."
But there's another problem in the courts as well, which can be traced back to the way the law is written. If a mentally incompetent person commits a crime, the judge cannot force that person into treatment if the crime is a misdemeanor.
"Pretty much, our hands are tied," lamented J. Thomas McGrady, the chief judge for the 6th Judicial Circuit serving Pinellas and Pasco. "You basically can't punish a person who is not competent to know their punishment or crime. We can suggest they go to jail diversion or other treatment, but we can't force them to and we can't allow the criminal charge to proceed against them and so they're released."
There are plenty of cases that fall into this category, like Charles Allen Grant. The St. Petersburg 53-year-old has been arrested dozens of times and each time is quickly right back on the street because his crimes are misdemeanors and the court psychologist found him to be incompetent.
"It's difficult. Mr. Grant's situation is not unique," said Judge Paul Levine.
Grant has appeared before the Pinellas County judge many times and each time Judge Levine has no choice but to let him go.
"It's tough to tell a victim, 'Ma'am or sir, there is nothing I can do for you if it's a misdemeanor except release the person and hope it doesn't happen again, which I don't think is a good solution.'"
So what about using Florida's Baker Act? That only applies if the suspect is an immediate threat to themselves or others.
BAKER ACT FACT SHEET: http://www.dcf.state.fl.us/programs/samh/mentalhealth/docs/Baker%20Act%20Overview%202013.pdf
FOX 13 caught up with Charles Grant on the streets of St. Petersburg and showed him more than a dozen arrest reports documenting his actions, which included public intoxication, drug possession, misuse of 911, disorderly conduct, spitting on person, screaming racial epithets, and resisting arrest.
"What's happen is slander, defamation of character, invasion of privacy. That's all fabricated," Grant insisted.
Dr. Jill Poorman is the court-appointed psychologist for the 6th Judicial Circuit and has evaluated Grant more than 15 times and found him to be incompetent and suffering from schizophrenia.
Like Judges McGrady and Levine, she could not talk directly about Grant's case but sees a clear problem.
"I've seen some people 40 or 50 times and I don't get a lot of cooperation from the incompetent individual," said Poorman. "It would be nice if we could be proactive instead of reactive."

Unusual DUI: Man faces chargesJune 19,2013Unusual DUI case:
Man faces charges
BENNINGTON A local man is facing felony charges after a woman told police he came to her door on June 1, asked her to help him push his truck and, when she said no, laid down in her front yard.
Gary J. Gore, 46, of Pucker Hill Road was arraigned in Bennington criminal court on two felony counts related to driving under the influence of alcohol with two previous convictions for the same charge. Gore pleaded innocent and was released without bail.
In an affidavit, Bennington Police Officer Amanda Thomson, said she was sent to a Gore Road home on June 1 around 8:50 p.m.
Thomson said a woman told her a man had come to her door and asked for help pushing his truck up the road. She said no, she said, and the man laid on her front lawn.
The man, later identified as Gore, told the officer his truck had run out of gas when he was driving to his girlfriends home. Thomson said he claimed he was with a friend who drove the truck.
Thomson said she could smell alcohol on Gores breath as they spoke.
The affidavit said Gores blood alcohol content was measured at 0.175 percent around 11 p.m., more than two hours after Thomson first spoke to Gore. The legal limit for driving in Vermont is 0.08 percent.
Gore was also ordered Monday to submit to electronic monitoring.MORE IN This Just InVGS answers state Full StoryPedestrian hurt in Friday crash Full StoryFAIR HAVEN — The town of Fair Haven is planning to convert its streetlights from... Full Story

PA State Law Act 86 of 2004 requires that we screen patients for their vaccine history and provide the vaccine if the patient is eligible and agreeable.
For years, Doylestown Hospital has asked patients over 65 and those at high-risk for the flu or pneumococcal disease if they've been vaccinated. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) are requiring hospitals to expand the vaccinations for in-patients to include more patients and those at younger ages.
More importantly, these vaccines are preventative measures that can greatly reduce illness and death related to influenza and pneumococcal disease.
The best way to prevent the flu is to get a flu shot. The vaccine is a safe way to protect yourself from the flu and its potentially serious complications. The flu shot cannot give you the flu (since it's made from a killed or "inactivated" virus). Protection lasts about a year.
The pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine protects against 23 different types of pneumococcal organisms, and it is indeed safe and effective. Studies suggest vaccination will prevent between 50 to 80 percent of cases of so-called invasive pneumococcal disease.
You will still be offered the vaccine if you are eligible. You have the option of receiving (if you are eligible) or declining the vaccine. If you decline and then change your mind, you will still be able to get the vaccine while you're at the hospital.
Because you might not be able to develop a strong immune response and get the most benefit from the vaccine while you have a fever. Once your fever goes down, you may be able to get the shot.

Have made this bread several times. As with almost all the breads, I use half the sugar and substitute applesauce for the oil. I'm going to try the Splendra Blend next time. It freezes really well and is very moist.

Decided to try this recipe and it was excellent!!! In fact I made 6 more after tasting it. The changes I made were using 3/4 cup of sugar and 1/2 cup brown sugar, and I also added raisins. I did freeze these and they thaw to be a very moist bread. Am planning to make 6 more today to give to friends and neighbors for the Holidays.

The market doesn't fear the fiscal cliff
It likes the coming together that we will see after we go over it.
Yes, it does all seem crazy. And while there are still two more trading days after today, the logical question to ask is: "If this is austerity on the horizon, why do markets seem to like it so much?"
Think about it like this. We know that we wanted Europe to put through pretty much what going over the fiscal cliff does, and those of us who think that growth is important don't like their plans. There's no growth stimulus. Austerity has led to lower interest rates, but those rates are really a function of central bank intervention.
Can our stock market really like a plan that has no growth kickers in it? So, logically we should be going down, not up.
Maybe the market is totally oblivious, and while we can make judgments that the market likes the fiscal cliff from the action, we can also presume the market doesn't know what it is talking about except for retail, which has been rolling over. But that's a tough fiscal-cliff-to-blame call because retail's been weak the whole season, a combination of ultra-warm weather, worries about the cliff and Superstorm Sandy.
This leads me to the most likely scenario: the market likes the coming together that we will see after we go over the cliff with the Republicans fighting vigorously for tax cuts and winning. That's why the sellers aren't dominating.
Makes sense. Grover Norquist really wants that. Some say he wanted the Plan B, but that's just nonsense. He wants nothing but tax cutting and that's what he can bargain with the president on through his committed minions. Turns out he was the most powerful man in Washington after all. Always will be, as long as the GOP owns the house.
Also, let's not forget how much the market is in love with gridlock. We know the next battle will be the debt ceiling and that will create another push for still smaller government and more rancor, which, while distracting, should no longer scare us because that's about debt downgrades that don't seem to matter so much anymore.
So, here's the bottom line. The market doesn't fear the cliff because good things come off it -- middle class tax relief -- and the rest is the long-sought agenda of fiscal conservatives everywhere.
We all acknowledge that a recession will be caused by the cliff if we don't get middle class tax relief, but if we do the fact that we didn't sell off big says that we will get it.
Those who don't believe in this thesis should be selling or shorting retail. The numbers are too high.
That's the best hedge I know.

So who has the MOST FEAR ?
The Republicans constituents fear of increasing taxes ?
The Democrats constituents fear of cost cutting ?
I'm going with the latter: the 47% will have to pay into the Obamanomics they voted for, have to look for work - finally- (extended EU benefits gone) .
The Dems are playing the most serious game of 'chicken' I've ever seen & if no deal is reached, we'll begin to see the outrage from those who voted for this mess.
Going over the Cliff is a good idea. There will be NO deal... We need the 47% leech class to start to pay for Obamanomics, and the Cliff will do that. We shall see how they like paying for Obamanomics. The Republicans have figured out they will not get any of the 47% leech class vote while they are on the government teet. The 47% will always vote for someone ELSE to pay their fair share of taxes, while they pay ZERO.
We need to slash spending. That will come up soon as we are at 16.4 trillion in debt now and will hit the limit the first week in January. The house will not increase Obama's credit limit one dime until he comes up with 1.2 TRILLION in spending cuts THIS year, not spread over 10 years and far in the future.
Prepare for the end of Obamanomics. The 47% will begin to pay their way. The insane spending will stop, and the USA will return to fiscal sanity, inspite of the democrats and the 47% leech class...

FIU coach Ron Turner said running back Anthon Samuel, a Miami Monsignor Pace High graduate who transferred from Bowling Green, won't be eligible this season, but he is enrolled and will join the team in the spring. Samuel ran for 998 yards last season.
Ironically, another Pace High graduate, Travis Greene, will be the starter at running back for Bowling Green.
Medlock stays positive
Nobody is more upbeat on a day-to-day basis than redshirt junior quarterback Jake Medlock. Asked if he ever has had a bad day or down day, Medlock laughed and said, "I try not to.
"I stay positive in myself and know that each day I can get better and better."
Medlock said he always has been that way and so have his brothers, FIU long-snapper Sam and FIU oral commit Luke.

The 2 percent reduction in payroll taxes was a stimulus. Conservative normally rail against all the
stimulus money spent in an effort to jack up the economy.
So when the stimulus is removed, everyone complains about
a tax increase. This attitude illustrates the difficulty
of reforming the entitlement segment of our nation.
How can any reasonable person condemn the welfare
state and yet complain because the government stopped
funding part of their retirement investment.
We have a representative type of government and the
older I get, the more convinced that I am that the
congress represents the will of the people. The same
attitude prevails.

There are many situations that clearly demonstrate that our visual perception is less than entirely accurate. These situations are called illusions. For example, when looking at a picture, or a television screen, the brain assumes that we are seeing objects and spaces that have depth. As a result, we are accepting a set of signals or cues that create an illusion of three-dimensional space. The vast majority of human beings experience the same illusion, suggesting that its origin lies in the physiological mechanisms of perception.
A clear demonstration of the interpretive nature of visual perception comes from ambiguous figures (optical illusions), i.e., single images that can give rise to two or more distinct perceptions. These are two-dimensional images that are perceived as three-dimensional objects. Due to gravity constraints some configurations are more often present than others. The objective of the Iris (Image Reversal in Space) experiment designed by a team of students from the International Space University was to investigate whether the perception of three-dimensional ambiguous figures was affected when the observer is in a reduced gravity environment.
In order to conduct the experiment, a series of 20-25 ambiguous figures were displayed on one of the International Space Station laptops using an interactive presentation. Some ambiguous figures were three-dimensional while others were two-dimensional objects. For each ambiguous figure, the astronaut-subject were asked to identify which form he saw first and then indicate when he saw the second. The time delay between the occurrence of the first and the second form will then be calculated.
Tests were performed with Canadian Astronaut Dr. Bob Thirsk before and during the flight. The same tests were also conducted on a population of subjects on Earth. The students' hypothesis is that for three dimensional figures, there will be a significant difference when observed both on Earth and in space, but not for two-dimensional figures. The images used for this student research as well as the project results are available on the Canadian Space Agency website.

Union Roster: Overpaid, Underpaid, or Properly Paid?
MLS released salary figures for its players. When Union fans think of players and their salaries, the first player who comes to mind is Freddy Adu. He is the team's highest-paid player, and therefore receives more criticism. It got us at Union Dues thinking "how are the other players perceived against their cost to the team?"
Here is that list:
Freddy Adu: 519K. As mentioned in the opening paragraph, his compensation denotes that he should be the team's most productive player. Most would consider that to not be the case. 23 games played, 5 goals, 1 assist. OVERPAID.
Chris Albright: 55K. He's not asked to do much for this team other than be a veteran presence. He's gotten in a few games recently, which makes Juan Diego Gonzalez jealous. PROPERLY PAID
Brian Carroll: 168K. He doesn't show up on the stat sheet, other than for the rare bungled-in goal, and the occasional yellow card. The work that he puts in on the field in midfield defense is the reason that this will be the first of his 10 MLS seasons not making the playoffs. UNDERPAID (slightly)
Danny Cruz: 106K. His biggest asset is his effort, but 1 goal and 1 assist in the 9 matches he's played with the team, given that he was thrown into the starting XI three days after he was acquired is actually solid. PROPERLY PAID
Keon Daniel: 59K. He possesses lots of poise on the ball, and lots of hair. His set-piece delivery is better than most on the team, and makes up for his lack of break-away speed. PROPERLY PAID
Gabe Farfan: 46K. The midfielder-turned-left-back has been as valuable for his sacrifice playing out of position and being forged in the fire of learning during matches. UNDERPAID
Michael Farfan: 94K. He's a creative central attacking midfielder miscast as a right winger. He made the 2012 MLS All-Star Team as an injury replacement, and played well in his minutes as a sub. And he does chippy things that nearly start fights. All good things. UNDERPAID
Raymon Gaddis: 34K. Versatile bench players are the stuff that championship teams are made of. Ray, as a rookie, has made himself a valuable part of this team's depth going forward. UNDERPAID (I mean, I make more than he does. Sheesh)
Gabriel Gomez: 295K. The beginning of his season had me thinking that he was a heart-of-the-team type of player. 10 matches later, he's merely yet another slower central midfielder, but his free kicks are more dangerous than Brian Carroll or Michael Lahoud. But that's not saying much because those two couldn't hit water if they shot from the top row of the River End. OVERPAID
Chase Harrison: 44K. He's a backup goalkeeper. Move along, nothing to see here. PROPERLY PAID
Christhian Hernandez: 54K. The way he spells his first name confuses me. He's a Homegrown Player so his salary doesn't count against the cap, so,…whatever. PROPERLY PAID
Chandler Hoffman: 91K. He lights up Reserves matches, apparently. That's a bit harsh and I guess it's expected that a rookie wouldn't play much. I guess it's better than playing in those matches and NOT scoring goals, right? He's a Generation Adidas player, so he also doesn't count against the salary cap. That also is what's keeping him from playing. Union don't want him to graduate. If he can take his Reserve form to the first team, they've got a steal. For now… PROPERLY PAID
Antoine Hoppenot: 44K. You've watched the games, right? He creates drama with his timely runs behind the defense, creativity in passing vision, and getting under opponents' skin with his flopping. UNDERPAID
Greg Jordan: 44K. He hasn't played for Union yet. So… hmmm… well… he was born April 5, 1990 in Naperville, Illinois, apparently. Sure… PROPERLY PAID
Chris Konopka: 44K. That seems to be the going rate for back-up keepers. He played in one match, made 6 saves, though he allowed a goal. He's the tallest guy on the team and he played the best single game for a Union keeper this season. And he was born in New Jersey, so in my opinion… UNDERPAID
Michael Lahoud: 84K. He runs a lot. Ok, that's selling him short a little bit, but he covers ground and does good work defensively. He's a bit of a hindrance to the offense with his lack of a threatening shot. OVERPAID
Porfirio Lopez: 125K. His best asset is his hair. And this time, that's not sarcastic. He's in over his head in MLS, which is possibly the most insulting thing I could say about him. But his hair is fantastic. OVERPAID
Zac MacMath: 135K. Zac is easily the runner-up to Freddy Adu in the contest of whose performance is most scrutinized. Fairly or not, Zac's play has been under the microscope and I feel he's been sub-standard. But, he is a starting-caliber goalkeeper in this league. PROPERLY PAID
Josue Martinez: 71K. It's hard to judge his play. He averages just 33 minutes per appearance in his 18 games played (6 starts). I like his game, I'd just like to see more of it, so for now… PROPERLY PAID
Jack McInerney: 140K. He's the team's leading scorer, and the face of their overall youth-development philosophy. Aside from putting the ball in the net, he plays with an edge, and even had that awesome goal celebration where he let himself get pulled up into the River End. UNDERPAID
Jimmy McLaughlin: 57K. Another one of these guys who has yet to play for the first team. So, yeah… Um… He's from Malvern! Good enough! PROPERLY PAID
Amobi Okugo: 173K. I thought it was desperate of the team to not get more immediate help at center back when Danny Califf was traded. In stepped AmoBEAST and he has owned the right center back position (except for that one game when Jairo Arrieta owned him). It's nice when Carlos Valdes gets competition for best-full-field-attacking-run-from-a-defender status. The true theft here is that he's still under a Generation Adidas contract, so Union aren't even paying for what they get. UNDERPAID
Zach Pfeffer: 70K. He's another one of these Homegrown types, so Union aren't paying for him. He got two surprise starts last season, but must really be in Hackworth's doghouse to go from a whole 136 minutes in 2011 to zero for this season. Ok, I threw that in there because I had really nothing else to go with. PROPERLY PAID
Bakary Soumare: 280K. He's a tall central defender… who has played one match for Union. I would love to see Baky earn a starting spot so that Okugo can go back to being a midfielder, but injured knees have kept Soumare to just that single appearance. The 76ers are also about to find out what happens when you acquire a relatively tall player with pre-existing surgically-repaired knees… OVERPAID
Roger Torres: 119K. The diminutive Colombian is an unquestioned fan favorite. Injuries have limited his on-field production this season, though he has shown in trademark attacking guile in the little time he has been on the field. That being said, for the 2012 season he is… OVERPAID
Carlos Valdes: 268K. El Capitan is the rock around which the team is built, if by no reason other than default. Nowak traded all of the other leaders away. He is a 2012 MLS All-Star, and a starter for the Colombia National Team. In line with previous team captains, he is UNDERPAID
Sheanon Williams: 90K. It's amazing to think that in 2010, Sheanon was just a guy with the Harrisburg City Islanders, brought in to be given a shot. He started 8 matches that year and has been part of the first choice XI ever since. He is getting about double what he got paid last year and is still UNDERPAID
Krystian Witkowski: 44K. With that salary, he must be another reserve goalie. Wait, he's a midfielder? Oh… And by the way, doesn't anyone spell it "Christian" anymore? PROPERLY PAID

Sept. 25, 1992. I will never forget that night. That was the night I was told my son, Deputy Brent McCants, was killed in the line of duty.
There was a knock at the door. A chaplain and York County police officer told me Brent was dead.
I had been through this before. In 1978, my husband, Dale, was killed in a tragic accident at Bowater.
You feel like you are in a bad nightmare or that you fell in a well. You want to hit the walls to wake up. But, reality hits back. You don't believe it's true until you see the body for yourself.
CHARLOTTE – WCNC Meteorologist Larry Sprinkle learned at an early age if you want to be taken seriously, you better know the community you work and live in like the back of your hand.
The 17-year-old charged in recent robberies and the arsons of two court buildings had a prior criminal record.
Martavious Semaj Carter, 17, is facing 31 charges related to five armed robberies around downtown Lancaster since Aug. 21. He is also charged with setting the fires at the Lancaster County Courthouse and the 6th Circuit Solicitor's Office last month.
Autism Speaks has a voice in Lancaster County and it belongs to Evelyn Springs.And that voice is being loudly raised to find a cure for the brain disorder that affects her 6-year-old grandson, Malik.But Springs isn't the only one lifting her voice and rolling up her sleeves.Several well-known cooks – including Leroy Springs & Co. chef Steve Archie, Bobby Bailey, Bruce Brumfield, Dr.
It didn't take long for word to get out Friday afternoon that someone had been charged in the courthouse and solicitor's office fires.
As the news folks, county officials, law enforcement officers and firefighters gathered in front of the Municipal Justice Center for the second press conference of the day on Friday, the buzz was that the teenager charged with five recent armed robberies was also the suspect in the fires.
It seemed unbelievable. A 17-year-old responsible for burning two government buildings?
Republican candidate Mick Mulvaney wants to set the record straight.
With Mulvaney running for the S.C. Senate seat for District 16, the spotlight is once again on his ties to New York City millionaire Howard Rich, a political activist who supports school vouchers and has contributed money to Republican campaigns throughout the country. It was revealed two years ago that Mulvaney's campaign for the House had accepted over $7,000 from Rich, but Mulvaney vows he has since cut ties with the activist.
Who is the real Mick Mulvaney? One thing is clear: he doesn't want us to know.
Every month since she announced her run for Senate, Mandy Powers Norrell has written a detailed and heart-felt column about the issues in this election – our local economy, layoffs, private school vouchers, healthcare and seniors issues, the environment, and the importance of protecting small business. And in each of these columns, she tells us who she is, her experiences, her values, and how they were formed right here in Lancaster County.
Two men have been arrested in connection with a home invasion Saturday night on Shiloh Unity Road.
The Lancaster County Sheriff's Office has charged Emilio Brown, 20, of 3321 Daystar Road, and Samuel Wright, 19, of 1705 Tradesville Road, each with first-degree burglary.
Tom Holland, sheriff's office spokesman, said Brown and Wright were among five men responsible for an 11 p.m. burglary in which gunshots were fired inside the home.
Arrest warrants have been issued for the following men:
KERSHAW – Only months after a Canadian gold development company announced plans to explore new sites at the Haile Gold Mine near Kershaw, the firm says it has discovered double the amount of gold deposits than previously estimated.
Few people ever celebrate a tax increase. But last week, Lancaster County Council gave residents a reason to at least sigh with some sense of relief about the tax increase to pay for the expenses related to the fire at the Lancaster County Courthouse.
County officials initially proposed an 8.9-mill tax increase to pay for those costs, and many residents weren't happy about it.

If we can't plead stupidity, what else is there? How do we live with ourselves? Is it all the stuff we buy that manages to numb our brains and consciences?
When I see a headline like this one at Bloomberg today, World Needs Record Saudi Oil Supply as OPEC Convenes, there's just one thought that pops into my head: what the world needs is for us to stop doing this thing we're doing. Even apart from peak oil concerns, it's obvious we're going to run out at some point or another, and it doesn't matter whether that's tomorrow or at some other point in the future, though we do know it's not going to take another 100 years, or even 50.
And nothing will ever take the place of oil; once those unique carbons are gone, that's it, we'll have to find a completely different way of running our societies, and if we're not smart enough to prepare for that beforehand, we'll be cats fighting in a sack and use the last scraps to kill off each other. And our legacy won't be the Greek thinkers and Picasso and Dostoyevsky and Walt Whitman and Maria Callas, since there won't be the means for our children anymore to share what makes man great between them. Our main legacy will instead be bloodshed, we will have gone the exact same path that any non-thinking or even primitive organism would have taken, who don't have opera or philosophy or poetry to their name.

Creating true global prosperity, even starting on a much smaller scale, can only be achieved through the ongoing investments we make in time, energy, and creative collaboration. While it's true that we have incredible collective resources with which to solve problems and create beauty, it is equally true that the deep investments required to create come at a cost. It can be all-too-easy to lose our sense of balance in the work. The resulting chronic lack of energy or burnout not only hurts ourselves it impacts those around us and can slow the momentum of the post-growth movement itself. That's why I believe that finding ways to balance deep engagement with healthy self-care must be at the foundation of our work if we are to create post-growth futures for ourselves and our communities.

Economically literate libertarians can't deny that, if climate change is a major risk, the rational thing to do is put a tax on greenhouse emissions. Therefore, in order to oppose that sort of government action, they have to deny that climate change is a major risk. And that's how we get this mind-bending piece from the Cato Foundation. Last year's sharp rise in the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, Cato's Paul C. "Chip" Knappenberger concludes, "is cause for celebration." Here is how Knappenberger gets there:

Dir: Chan Pei
Scr: Leung Ming
Cast: Yam Kim-fai, Tang Bik-wan, Leung Sing-po, Cheng Bik-ying, Wong Cho-shan
1956 / B&W / D Beta / Cantonese / 95min
Yung Mei, who is famous for her quick wit and smart tongue, takes refuge with her uncle who has a mute daughter, Ching-yee. In order to cover up Ching-yee's disability, Mei speaks and sings for Ching-yee at the back during her dating with her fiancé and in their wedding night. Despite its hilarious comedy treatment, the film excels in its touch of sincerity. Tang Bik-wan worked closely with Chan Pei and the two successfully create the well-received image of "Lady of Silver and Bitter Tongue". They paired up perfectly for various kinds of Cantonese opera and singing genres.
