|Are government servants happy?
|Written by DM_Team
|Tuesday, 31 January 2012 12:45
With the recent spike in the number of protests being held, one has to wonder whether civil servants in this country are been given their due place? Are those that see to the public needs of this country being neglected and shortchanged by those that we elected into office?

I said to the almond tree, Friend, speak to me of God, and the almond tree blossomed.
By believing passionately in something that still does not exist, we create it. The nonexistent is whatever we have not sufficiently desired.
The real meaning of enlightenment is to gaze with undimmed eyes on all darkness.

LOVE THESE - PLEASE RESTOCK MORE TO BUY/ORDER! A friend gave me one of these as a 'farewell' gift as I was leaving the company - she knew my taste, but the store only had 1 left for her to buy for me. As I missed the opportunity to order many more online; I then called & scoured all Cost Plus stores within a 50 mi radius to obtain 10 or so more! These are fabulous vintage-like treasures! Please order/bring back more! May 13, 2013

Memories & Candles
Dear Joseph,
I have fond memories of Gwen Delle. She was a kind and wonderful teacher. The ballet studio was my home away from home when I was young for so many years. Gwen Delle was so sweet. She always made me feel like a part of the group.
Thank you for the memories, Gwen Delle!

Our family was very sorry to hear that Ms. Gwen Delle had passed. Ms. Gwen Delle was sweet and passionate.. and just joy to have known. She will be truly missed.
Our thoughts and prayers extend to all of her family.

Dear Joseph,
So very sorry to learn of Gwen Delle's passing. I can remember meeting her once several years ago when I came to your home to interview you. Gwen Delle's light will continue to shine in the hearts of many as she left an indelible mark on our dance community. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family at this difficult time.
With deepest sympathy,

What fond memories I have of Gwen Delle and Joseph as they were the parent figures of my childhood. Being away from my own parents, at 14 to dance with their company, was an adventure of its own. I can see now, how God used each of them as key instruments to nurture, develop and oversee me into the person I am today. Gwen Delle could always see when I needed that motherly time, touch or even a smile. Thank

My heart is broken. This world has lost a bright light with the passing of GwenDelle. All of my memories of her are flooding back - at Skidmore in the summer program, hanging with Felix and Elizabeth, gossiping on the phone, dancing together in Sleeping Beauty, and working closely together with you all during my time in New Orleans. I pray that she is at peace and with God, and that all who she left here in Earth can share

I can't even fathom her not being here with Mr. Joseph! When I moved to Slidell from Metairie 21 years ago, I couldn't believe that Slidell had a Giacobbe Academy of Dance studio. I was thrilled since after 4 sons I finally had a daughter,who wanted to dance! And where else would I send her, but to the studio who taught me and my 2 sisters from 1969-1988.

It's been a while, and I want to let you know that you and your family and friends and everyone at the academy have been in my thoughts and prayers with the recent passing of Mrs. Gwen Delle. Dancing with you a few years back is still what I consider some of my favorite years of ballet, and she influenced those years hugely. I will always appreciate everything she did for us students. I hope you find comfort in

Dear Mr.Joseph,Miss Maria and the Giacobbe Dance family,
My thoughts and prayers go out to you all at this difficult time. When I think of Giacobbe Academy of Dance I smile because all of my memories of the 8 years I danced there were happy,good times of my youth. Even though I did not continue my dancing beyond grade school it was some of the best experiences of my life. The Giacobbe's are good people and Miss Gwen Delle will live on through them.

If there's one thing startup entrepreneurs crave, it's media and blog coverage.
Attracting the media spotlight can arguably be as important to them as getting customers. How come? In many respects, media coverage somehow validates what an entrepreneur is doing, the product developed and the risks taken. And it's a great way to impress friends and family.
But is media coverage that important? Does it matter if TechCrunch, the Globe & Mail, GigaOm or VentureBeat deems your startup to be worthy of their attention? If so, what are the benefits other than a flurry of traffic and a sweet link on your "Media" page.
This is not to suggest media coverage has no value but startups spend too much time hoping someone (anyone!) to pay attention to them. It's like growing the business isn't good enough if no one – other than their customers – knows about how well they're doing.
Truth be told, media coverage is a crapshoot. I wish there was a magical formula that would guarantee coverage: take one interesting product, mix in a snazzy quote, sprinkle in some unique features and a touch of cockiness, and, voila, media coverage. If only it was that easy.
In the real world, media coverage happens for all kinds of reasons that may have nothing to do with how interesting you or your startup may be, or the traction that's going on. Media coverage happens because it may be a slows news day, or you met the reporter/blogger at a conference, or a friend raved about your product at a dinner party, or the PR person you hired knows everyone so they can call in all kinds of favours.
It makes media coverage impossible to predict. When you're convinced the media will be all over your story, they're nowhere to be found. But when you offhandedly toss a tidbit into the wind, the media can't get enough of you.
At the end of the day, media coverage is a bonus/cherry on top of the sundae but it's really not that important.
What's important is driving the business, delighting customers and getting them to become your marketing machine.
Links: For startups looking to attract media coverage, April Dunford has some tips. AOnStartups has a complete guide to getting media coverage, while Forbes has a three-step plan for successful cold-mailing.

New numbers from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show an alarming increase of the number of diabetes diagnoses. In fact, even the lead researcher called the study results "shocking."
According to the CDC, the number of diabetes diagnoses has doubled in 18 states -- including Minnesota. In the remaining 32, diagnoses are up by 50 percent.
In 2010, more than 6 percent of Minnesotans were diagnosed with diabetes. That's compared to just 3 percent in 1995.
Experts attribute the increase to the nation's obesity epidemic -- and to medical advances that are helping diabetics live longer; however, as many as a third of people with diabetes are not even aware they have it because it can sneak up on an adult.
Mike Johnson was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes 10 years ago.
"Dry mouth, weak bladder -- I was getting up and going to the bathroom two to three times a night," he recalled."
Now, he takes medication and this the gym two to three times a week.
"I want to live," he said.
In Minnesota, it's estimated that 290,000 people have been diagnosed with diabetes, but nearly five times that many residents have high blood sugar levels that aren't high enough to trigger a diagnosis.

Am I blind for having knelt and lied? Or for not having knelt long enough?
The opening scene takes place on the final day of Galileo's life, in 1642. This opening scene frames the rest of the opera. All the scenes that follow — which we have already discussed — come from this moment of recollection; we imagine what Galileo would have turned over and over in his mind as he assessed the events of his life. His trial. His beloved oldest daughter. His scientific experiments. A walk in the garden with the future pope. A moment of discovery, in church with his child. The invention of his telescope. And a moment in his childhood, watching his father's opera.
There is no end to the list of things I cannot see. Her straw hat in the bottom of the boat. The rose. The telescope.
(Did you know that it's a myth that Galileo became blind by looking too long at the sun through his telescope? In truth, his many drawings of the sunspots he could see were created by projecting the telescope image of the sun onto a piece of white paper, where they could then be traced. Galileo was most likely blind due simply to cataracts and old age.)
Scene 1 is a monologue, full of longing, tinged with regret. But also, to the end, insistent that he knew what he knew; that he was right. It closes with the line he was famously supposed to have uttered after his recantation (an utterance that, however romantic, is almost certainly a myth): eppur, si muove. And yet, it moves.
The earth in all its heavenly glory around the sun was turning. Around the burning sun, the earth was turning. Now, in ignorant darkness, still I say it turns.
Tonight is opening night. I cannot tell you what this show means to me, or to many of us. There isn't really any way to convey the process of discovery that many of us have taken as we have built this show from scratch. Truth be told, although I wrote a whole post on how to like this music, I was very uncertain that I would ever grow to love the show. I wasn't sure I could get behind some aspects of the libretto, and I also wasn't immediately wild about the music.
I was wrong.
The extent to which Mary Zimmerman based her libretto on actual historical transcriptions is amazing to me; it continues to amaze me as I continue to learn about Galileo's life. The tiny details the opera picks out — the birds that the Pope has killed; the reference that Galileo makes to his Dialogue being "a chimera, a dream; nothing more" — they all came out of the history books. Some things are conflated for, I presume, the sake of clarity and simplification, but nearly all of it is absolutely real.
The music is utterly exquisite and lovely. Difficult to put together and difficult to perform, both for the singers and the pit musicians, but beautiful, with nothing wasted. I've had it in my head non-stop for a month now, and truth be told, I haven't minded.
I love that the show will be a surprise to all of you. I feel a certain giddy satisfaction about it. Everybody knows how Butterfly ends; it's easy to find the libretto of La Boheme. We all know Tosca jumps. But this, this is a mystery to you. This is a thing we've built and you get to see it for the first time, ever — all of you. During Wednesday night's dress rehearsal, I began crying in Scene 8 (I always cry in Scene 8) and I cried straight through the end of the opera. It's moving and beautiful, but I was also crying because I was really proud of this thing we've put together. I sincerely hope that each of you who sees it enjoys it as much as I have. That's what all these blog posts have been, really: my fervent attempt at transmitting my love of this production to you.
If I could tell you what I think the crux of the opera is, it's the last of Galileo's singing at the end of Scene 8:
The world was made so perfectly, we only need to look. And when we look, we learn all of God's perfection — his deep perfection. Our looking is like love, like praise: praise for this world, this lovely world our God has made.
Please don't forget that our resident historian, Bob Kingston, gives a wonderfully informative talk (and question & anwer session) at each performance, one hour prior to curtain (6:30 PM, or 1 PM on Sunday). He will not present the same information I've presented, so I promise we won't be repeating each other! Bob is the reason I came to love Orphée; I highly highly HIGHLY recommend his talk.
Happy opening, everyone. Eppur, si muove.

An effort to create a Travis Alexander law is underway.The murder victim's friends are going online to try to create a law to prevent murder victim's names from being dragged through the mud.
The petition is to Attorney General Eric Holder.
The goal is to stop suspected killers from making outrageous claims about a victim who's not there to defend themselves.But one attorney says it will never become law.Friends of Travis Alexander's say Jodi Arias made countless unsubstantiated claims about him in court. The most egregious, they say, when she claimed he was a pedophile.This is what she said about it during an exclusive interview with FOX 10 anchor Troy Hayden: "I would have been very happy to remain silent and go quietly in the night off to prison. My defense team decided to rip the lid off because we were forced to trial, the state didn't want to settle."Travis' supporters have taken to the Internet, starting a petition at change.org to create Travis Alexander's law, aimed to stop allowing highly prejudicial claims against murder victims without evidence. Travis' friend, Dave Hall, signed it saying victims have the right to a fair trial too."I hope that they somehow raise the bar or increase the filter on what can be said about a victim that has been murdered and cannot testify on their own behalf when there is nothing to substantiate the claims," said Hall. "I cannot see that the way the petition is written that it will ever pass because you cannot simply tie someone's hands and tell them they cannot testify to something they claim happened with them and another person," said attorney Monica Lindstrom. Lindstrom says there's nothing to keep a defendant from telling a lie. People just have to believe the jury will get it right. "We essentially put our faith in the jurors to judge the credibility of the witness and to determine whether that evidence is true or not," said Lindstrom. "They realized what she said wasn't true." Someone started the petition March 20 and it now has more than 13,000 signatures. It's just a petition, but some can get so many signatures it pressures politicians into taking action.

Recurring Back Pain Treatment Angola IN

Back to Basics
By Lisa Marshall
We all know the phrases "Oh, my aching back" and "What a pain in the neck." They've been uttered so often over the years, they've become ingrained as lighthearted clichés. But for the increasing number of Americans whose chronic spinal problems cause them to lose sleep, miss work, or sacrifice their favorite sports and hobbies, back pain is no joke.
"I had to stop walking. I had to stop using the treadmill at the gym. My wife and I used to love to travel and go on walking tours, and I couldn't do that anymore," says Jack Funk, 69, of the omnipresent back ache and debilitating leg spasms he suffered for years. "It really affected my life."
Studies show that as many as two-thirds of adults will suffer chronic or recurring back pain at some point, making it second only to the cold as the most common reason for visiting a doctor. Back pain accounts for a staggering $75 billion annually in medical expenses, lost productivity, and disability claims and constitutes the No. 1 reason for inactivity in people under age 45. And according to care providers nationwide, its incidence is on the rise.
"It has been growing steadily over the past 30 years. It's a huge problem," says Gerald Silverman, DC, author of Your Miraculous Back: A Step-by-Step Guide to Relieving Neck and Back Pain (New Harbinger, 2006).
But despite what many see as a troubling epidemic, there remains a heated debate over just what causes back pain and how to treat it. In more than 85 percent of cases, care providers can find no clear-cut anatomical explanation for the pain, leaving them to speculate about everything from muscle, joint, and disc damage to stress and psychological trauma. When it comes to treatment, back surgery rates continue to soar nationwide, with surgeons in the US performing 40 percent more back operations than in any other developed country. Yet clinicians still argue whether the promise of pain relief outweighs the cost and potential risks associated with surgery (including paralysis and worsening pain), and many of them contend that too many patients turn to drugs or go under the knife before they exhaust other options.
"For chronic low back pain, surgery is seldom a good option," says Dean Neary, ND, chair of the physical medicine department at Bastyr University, near Seattle. "It may give them some relief, but it often comes at the cost of reducing mobility, which may down the road lead to further complications."
Faced with the prospect of surgery or prolonged use of pain management drugs, many patients opt for a more holistic approach, making back pain the most frequently stated reason people seek out complementary and alternative therapies.
"To surgically correct something without addressing the underlying cause is missing the boat," says Neary.
Sitting ducks
So just what underlying causes are driving the soaring rates of back pain in the US? According to many practitioners, our increasingly sedentary lifestyle—centered around l...

Strengthening the Capacity of Small Farmers
We are at the threshold of an extraordinary opportunity. In July, world leaders made an unparalleled financial commitment to end world hunger at the G8 summit. They agreed to provide $20 billion over three years for a Food Security Initiative that will support rural development in developing countries.
This commitment is not only financially significant; it represents a shift in the way world leaders approach foreign aid - from providing short-term food aid to building the capacity of rural farmers in the developing world to increase their own food production. The new initiative also highlights the need to empower small farmers, particularly women.
The Hunger Project's (THP's) low-cost strategies are indeed just the type of approach that world leaders have embraced. THP is poised to do everything possible in the coming months to share our best practices, lessons learned and methodology with as many policymakers, funding agencies and like-minded organizations as possible.
Prior to the G8 announcement, THP provided input to the US administration based on our on-the-ground experience, both through in-person meetings and through documents created collectively with other members of InterAction, the largest coalition of U.S.-based NGOs working in international relief and development. Ultimately, decisions on action programs will be made in each developing country, and THP intends to work with all parties to make this commitment a reality.
Spotlight on Our Microfinance Program
THP's Microfinance Program is one such low-cost strategy that empowers rural farmers. It is a program of training, savings and credit that addresses a critical missing link for the end of hunger in Africa: the economic empowerment of the most important but least supported food producers on the continent - Africa's women.
By providing women food farmers easy access to credit, adequate training and instilling in them the importance of saving, THP enables women to engage in income-generating activities to increase their incomes and invest in their businesses, pay their children's school fees, construct pit latrines, purchase medicines, pay for health care, and make home improvements or build new homes. Furthermore, through participation in the program, women leaders develop self-confidence and assertiveness, gaining elevated status in their households and communities. They are creating a new future where women and men are equal partners in the development of the well-being of their families and their community.
To demonstrate THP's commitment to all members of the community, THP also offers men the opportunity to participate in the Microfinance Program, following the same principles and procedures. However, because the focus of the program is on rural women, THP allocates close to 90 percent of all loan funds to women.

Quilter, Peter
Adult Nonfiction PR6067.U44 E53 2005
Summary: Musical drama of Judy Garland's "come-back" concerts Christmas 1968: with a six week booking at London's Talk of the Town, it looks like Judy Garland is set firmly on the comeback trail. The failed marriages, the suicide attempts and the addictions are all behind her. At forty-six and with new flame Mickey Deans at her side, she seems determined to carry it off and recapture her magic. But lasting happiness always eludes some people, and there was never any answer to the question with which Judy ended every show: "If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow, why, oh, why, can't I?" End of the Rainbow is a savagely funny drama featuring a glorious ensemble of Judy Garland hits and infused with the glamour and the melancholy of stardom. "Every note she sings, every racket she makes, every tear she sheds, every joke she cracks, every pill she pops - is conveyed with alarming honesty. This knockout portrait of a living catastrophe should not be missed." What's On Published to tie-in with the premiere at the Sydney Opera House in July 2005

Drivers pass them every day but perhaps give them very little attention. They're called underride guards and the Insurance Institute says they're failing.
The barriers are supposed to stop cars from driving underneath the truck, but they're not doing that.
Rivera Beach Police Officer Donald Eberhardt was driving home late one night when his car plowed into the back of a semi that had broken down in the middle of the highway.
Eberhardt's car slid underneath of the semi - killing him instantly.
"I never saw the pictures until after the crash. I couldn't believe that was his Mustang," said his wife Sieni Eberhardt.
"In crashes like this one into the back of a truck they don't have a chance," said Adrian Lund of the Insurance Institute.
The Insurance Institute for Highway and Safety reports 400 such deaths each year and nearly 5000 injuries.
The Insurance Institute crashed a vehicle traveling 40 mph into the back of a semi. The report showed very little survival space.
The car pushed the underride guard out of the way and cut the car into half.
The Florida Highway Safety randomly inspects trucks on the highway.
In 2011, the state handed out 29 violations for inadequate underride guards. Those violations vary from damaged to missing underride guards.
Tim May with the Florida Highway Safety said, "We're looking to make sure that the underride protection meets federal requirements."
However the federal requirements have been in place since the 1950s and they only require that a truck have a guard.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has been slow to strengthen the requirements.
In a statement to NBC2, they said they're conducting an in-depth field analysis to determine how they can improve the standard to save lives.
The Insurance Institute be lives the fix is simple. They're calling for stronger guards like the ones required in Canada. Tests show they hold up better in a crash.
"I beg whoever makes these trucks to please, just make it safe." said Sieni Eberhardt.
Meantime, The American Trucking Association said in a statement to NBC2 that they believe avoiding such accidents altogether is a better solution.
They urge drivers to pay attention to the guards, their surroundings and not driving distracted.

WEST GREENWICH–The Exeter-West Greenwich school committee voted Tuesday night to approve a traditional calendar for the 2011-12 school year, including both a February and an April vacation and a start date before Labor Day.
There were two versions of the school year calendar that were not approved. One calendar had the school year starting after Labor Day with one vacation week in March; the other had the school year starting before Labor Day with one vacation week in March.
WOOD RIVER JUNCTION - Both the Chariho baseball and boys tennis team went winless last week.
Monday, both teams picked up their first win.
The baseball team got a great pitching performance from Cory Eaton while the bats did plenty of damage in an 11-6 win over Tiverton and while that game was going on, the tennis team took care of business against a struggling Pilgrim team, winning 7-0.
For a full story on both games, pick up the 4/14 edition of The Chariho Times.
HOPE VALLEY – If you visit the Wood-Pawcatuck Watershed Association's (WPWA) campus on Arcadia Road in Hope Valley this summer you will notice lots of changes.
The Exeter-West Greenwich School District will be holding an all-day referendum on the 2011/2012 school operations budget and charter amendments, Monday, April 11 from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Exeter residents can vote at the Exeter Public Library, 773 Ten Rod Road; Exeter and West Greenwich residents can vote at the West Greenwich Fire Station #1, 830 Nooseneck Hill Road, West Greenwich.
WOOD RIVER JCT. – Chariho Regional School District Superintendent of Schools Barry Ricci will conduct an Open Forum with the community on April 13 at 6:30 p.m. in the Chariho Regional High School library.
NORTH KINGSTOWN – The Rev. W. David Dobbins Jr., interim rector of St. Paul's Episcopal Church, confessed that the planning group for last week's Lenten luncheon seriously underestimated the number of participants.
"We heard about attendance at the other lunches and talked about setting up for 80 but we thought that must be an exaggeration. So we prepared for 60."
HOPKINTON -- The town is one step closer to having bingo games available again for residents as the Town Council will vote on a related ordinance at its upcoming April 18 meeting.
The council closed the public hearing on a zoning ordinance Monday, April 4 that defines bingo halls and makes it so that the town can offer bingo only under specific circumstances.
NARRAGANSETT–The economic downturn has affected many towns and cities around the nation, yet none as pronouncedly as the fishing communities in the New England area. Point Judith is one of them.
The U.S Economic Development Administration has selected Point Judith, among six other New England fishing ports, for a two and a half-day analysis of the specific issues concerning the community. The EDA examined a number of fishery data from the fishing ports, including the groundfish landing revenues and the percentage of groundfish landed at a port compared to state totals.
NORTH KINGSTOWN – Architect Andy Pearce was ready to accept a job with Keough Construction, but before he did, he told his new employer he couldn't start until after Feb. 12.
It's more a question of why. Pearce had committed to being part of a mission team from First Baptist Church in Wickford that was planning a trip to the Dominican Republic from Feb. 5-12.
Not only did his new boss agree to the stipulation, he donated money to the effort.
We reported last week that the Charlestown Town Council approved an amended version of the zoning ordinance that defines wind generator towers and systems. And we were glad to see that the council was able to move relatively quickly in getting this approved.

Key timeout expiration behavior and stats
Hello, I'm using the Java Client and CouchBase 2.0.1 community edition (build-185)
I'm writing a provider to allow CFML developers to use CouchBase inside a cache aggregator called CacheBox (part of the ColdBox platform). I'm trying to get the correct metadata from the CouchBase keys for the reporting portion of the library. Data I would ideally like to get for all keys in the bucket is:
- Key Name (retrieved via view)
- Hits (Not sure this is possible)
- Timeout (time before item expires regardless of hit count)
- IdleTimeout (time before item expires counted since last hit-- I don't think CouchBase support this))
- Created (time key created -- This does not appear to exist in key stats)
- Last Accessed (Time key was last "hit")
- Status (active/expired)
I been playing with the stats that are available for a bit but haven't been able to nail down some specific answers after a bit of Googling so I wanted to confirm here.
Can I determine from the key stats what the initial timeout of a key was set to when it was first set into the bucket?
Also, can I see when a key was created?
The next question: is there a date that stores the last hit to a key? The key_last_modification_time key stat appears to change to the current time every time I access the stats, however the expiration date doesn't change. So it basically _always_ looks like my keys were just touched. Is this a bug since viewing stats doesn't seem like it should count as "modifying" the key.
And finally, I think I saw an answer to this floating around Google, but to confirm, are there key-level hit and miss stats available?
Thanks for your help.
Anyone want to take a stab at my questions?
We have migrated this discussion to the Q&A section in our new User Communities Portal here: http://www.couchbase.com/communities/q-and-a/key-timeout-expiration-beha.... Please head over there to continue the discussion; forums will become read-only on 06/27.
Your Couchbase Forum Team
How do I log into that URL? Also, why is this question being moved? I'm unclear on if this is an action being taken only against this question, or all the forum questions. I must say that's most unhelpful login screen I've ever seen. It appears to just be a basic auth popup or something with no forgot password feature or anything. I'm trying to log in with the same username and password I access the Couchbase forums with.
If I take the "stage" out of the URL, I can access the site but there is no record of my question there.

With a change in weather, potholes have become a huge problem in the city of Toledo. Toledo's Division of Streets, Bridges and Harbor will work on a weekend blitz to fill potholes and address the damage done to city streets, as a result of the recent winter freeze and thaw cycles.
Toledo News Now received several reports Thursday morning of drivers getting flats on Anthony Wayne Trail near Western Avenue, as well as on northbound Interstate 75 near Collingwood Boulevard.
City crews fill potholes based mainly on reported problem areas. The division is asking residents to call Friday and Saturday with pothole complaints, as part of a weekend-long effort to address the large number of road concerns.
Streets have been worse in the past, but pothole patrols will be out to make sure they don't get worse.
"We've just gone through another period of freeze/thaw with some rain in there, and it's created those voids underneath the pavement. Cars travel across pavement now thawed out," said Dave Pratt, commissioner of the division.
For this special weekend effort, residents are asked to contact the division's dispatchers at 419-936-2523 to report potholes. The number will be answered over the weekend to relay and prioritize reports to field crews.
"Our main concern is doing the best we can to provide safety to the traveling public. If we have to work overtime to provide that safety, that's what we do," said Pratt.
Citizens may also call 419-936-BUMP during the regular work week or report potholes online at www.toledo.oh.gov.
If you find a pothole that needs repair, send us a picture with the location at email@example.com.

Hey guys and gals,
I'm currently designing a Kettlebell program affectionately titled "KettleHell" and I'm looking for 10 dedicated and motivated individuals to be part of a test group and give feedback about results, opinions on how it can be improved and the overall experience. You'll get a free copy of the program once it's finished, full support and most importantly...GREAT RESULTS. I've had some of my clients doing it for awhile and they've all completely transformed so I think it's time to develop and share it on a wider scale. I've completely re-worked traditional kettlebell exercises and developed new ones using my knowledge of physics, physiology and kinesiology into an amazing program that works. It's different, it's fun and it's effective. You'll lose bodyfat, gain muscle mass, improve your balance, coordination and learn alot of new techniques. Please send me a message or respond to this post if you are interested. You don't need a gym and you can do it outside on sunny days, which I love to do. You don't need to buy anything and all you'll need are a few kettle bells, a jump rope and a treadmill/somewhere to run on some days.
If you do become part of this test group, I would prefer that you:
1. Have no current or past musculoskeletal injuries that can be easily aggravated.
2. Be in good health.
3. Be moderately experienced with working out, proper form, etc.
4. Commit to this program for 100 days and document your experience from time to time throughout the process.
5. Have access to the few pieces of equipment (ex/kettlebells) that are needed.
What are the benefits?
1. It's free
2. It works very well
3. It will improve alot of weaknesses and imbalances that result from years of conventional weightlifting
4. It will improve your posture, flexibility, coordination, balance and cardiovascular output.
5. It will forge your body into a lean, efficient machine and it will be INTENSE.

New Russian Law Assesses Heavy Fines on Protesters

Russian police detain protesters outside the Parliament building in Moscow on June 5.

MOSCOW — President Vladimir V. Putin signed into law on Friday a measure that will impose heavy fines on people who organize or take part in unsanctioned demonstrations, giving the Russian authorities powerful leverage to clamp down on the large antigovernment street protests that began six months ago and seemed to be re-energized after Mr. Putin's inauguration last month.

Sergei Karpukhin/Reuters
A National Bolshevik Party activist handcuffed himself to a rail Tuesday in protest of a measure that was signed into law on Friday.
The law multiplies existing financial penalties for those who take part in a demonstration that harms people or property by a factor of more than 120, with potential fines of more than $9,000 for individuals, more than $18,000 for organizers and more than $30,000 for groups or companies. The penalties could also apply to people who participate in an approved demonstration but who violate the terms of their permit for the event.
Such penalties would be crushing for most Russians, given the average yearly salary of about $8,500, but the implications of the new law extend far beyond practical considerations. By all accounts, Mr. Putin flexed substantial political muscle to have the law adopted, brushing aside any concerns about being seen as restricting free speech or assembly and ignoring reservations even among some of his allies and supporters.
Although Mr. Putin has distanced himself from United Russia, the party that endorsed him for president, party leaders nonetheless used their slim majority in the State Duma, the lower house of Parliament, to overcome a remarkable filibuster by opposition lawmakers and approve the law late Tuesday night. It was approved by the upper chamber, the Federation Council, the next day with only one vote in opposition.
Supporters of the measure said it was needed to stem what they called a rising tide of radicalism.
Despite the aggressive legislative push, some critics had held out hope that Mr. Putin would veto the measure, in a gesture of conciliation and perhaps a demonstration of his confidence in the face of the continuing protest movement.
In announcing that he had signed the law, Mr. Putin tried to portray it as consistent with similar laws in Western countries, and he said people could still express their views at rallies. "But," he said, "all this must be organized in such a way so as not to harm the other citizens who are not taking part in these events."
As if to underscore Mr. Putin's assurances that dissent was not being squelched, the Moscow city authorities announced on Friday evening that they had approved a permit for a march and rally on Tuesday, with up to 50,000 participants.
In recent months, antigovernment activists have staged several peaceful, informal protests without obtaining official permission. These actions, which would have been clear violations of the new law, included a stroll through Moscow by artists and writers and a "Big White Circle" in which people gathered along the Garden Ring that encircles downtown Moscow wearing white ribbons and carrying white balloons.
Opposition groups and rights advocates reacted swiftly and angrily to the new law, which includes provisions that would bar individuals from acting as protest organizers if they are found to have previously violated the law in two cases and allow local authorities to compile a list of central locations where public protests are prohibited entirely. It also provides for a sentence up to 200 hours of mandatory work as an alternative to financial penalty on individuals.
"In fact, this is a ban on rallies and political actions," Sergei Mitrokhin, the leader of Yabloko, a liberal opposition party, told the Interfax news agency. "Now, anyone can be punished with slave's work or an astounding fine. I cannot call people to a rally knowing in advance that from there they may be sent to the galleys."
Several groups had urged Mr. Putin to veto the law or seek substantial changes before signing it. The Presidential Human Rights Council, an advisory body, called the financial penalties excessive.
Gleb Pavlovsky, a political commentator, said that all evidence indicated that the law was forced through the State Duma by the presidential administration, and he said it was a grave mistake given the apparent trampling of constitutional rights. "They lost their sense of reality about what they can do and what they can't," Mr. Pavlovsky said, adding, "People who do not agree with the authorities turn out not to have full rights."
Separately on Friday, Russia's Investigative Committee arrested two men in an inquiry into clashes between the police and protesters on May 6. In a statement announcing the arrests, the committee said that Mikhail Kosenko was suspected of kicking a riot police officer and that Stepan Zimin was suspected of throwing chunks of asphalt at the police, breaking the finger of one. The two men were charged with attacking police officers and participating in mass riots, with a maximum sentence of 13 years.
