Former Miss Alabama Katherine Webb became an instant sensation when she was spotted on television during her boyfriend's, Alabama Crimson Tide quarterback A.J. McCarron, appearance in the BCS National Championship Game against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
ESPN analyst Brent Musberger was all about the lovely Miss Webb and came off as a bit creepy, but his point was delivered. Webb is an attractive female and she surely demanded attention.
Webb got that attention during the game when her Twitter account jumped from a mere 2,000 followers to nearly 200,000 in a matter of a few hours. She turned the newly found popularity into multiple media appearances and even a job as a correspondent during the Super Bowl.
Now, Webb is demanding the attention in the 2013 Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. Kate Upton may have the cover for a second-straight year, but Webb is earning the praise from sports fans. After all, it was her national championship cameo that took her fame to new levels.
Here is a photo gallery that highlights Webb's appearance in the 2013 swimsuit issue:

Ku Vonakala ~ Making Light:
With Denise Lurton-Moullé and Judith B. Miller
We hear so much about Africa these days in the news, we know of the poverty and the impact of HIV/AIDS on the poor rural communities but what can we do?
This trip was created to give Westerners an opportunity to know and to be of service to one small village community in the Mpumalanga Province of South Africa. Rooiboklaagte is the village where the women of the Mapusha Weaving Cooperative live and it is typical of rural South Africa the nursery school is full of eager children but they have no toys, the women are full of faith and determination but they have no work. When asked what help they would most like the answer was English classes for themselves and their children, grandchildren.
If you would like to come to Africa and have a beneath the surface experience please consider joining this retreat. If the idea of working with a group of 10 who are in South Africa for 10 days to offer service and receive some of the gifts that Africa and the rural South Africans have to give please join us.
We will meet in Hoedspruit on September 27th and settle ourselves at the Kimba Lodge, which is a beautiful, secluded lodge in the bush. It is on the bank of the Blyde River and one can sit on the deck at dusk listening to the hippos. It is a perfect site for meditation and there is both indoor and outdoor space for yoga practice. We will have the option of cooking our own meals or having them prepared for us. There is a quiet, a depth in the bush of the Blyde River Canyon, which makes it a wonderful place to be still and receptive. While staying at the lodge we will focus our attention on work with the women and children of Rooiboklaagte teaching English as a start and seeing where it leads. We will have daily meditations and yoga practice. We will have time to be in this magical bush world where the energy of the animals and the rocks and trees is so much, much bigger than the human presence.
One morning we will go for an early bush walk with a trained guide and bush lover at Moholoholo Mountain Lodge. One evening we will go on a sunset game drive at a nearby private lodge and have dinner outside in their boma. We will drive to the top of the canyon and spend time in meditation at this amazing power site.
It will be a different experience of Africa. Meeting the women and children of the village will touch you. Being in the canyon, the bush, the game reserves (Kruger Park) will give you an experience of the natural world that you will never forget. It is an experience that touches one's very core to sit by a water hole and watch the birds and the hippos; to see a herd of zebras and wildebeests, giraffes, and elephants; to spend time with a family of lions in the dusk or the dawn. After this trip you will hold Africa and her gifts and problems in your heart in a new way.
We call this trip, Ku Vonakala. In Shangaan this means, to make light. This retreat is about making connections, giving your gifts and receiving in return. We believe that this is the kind of action that makes our world a place of greater understanding, more compassion and true equality. To participate is to make the light grow ever brighter.

Seems a small, isolated group here would cowboy up and take on the world if their family were insulted with name calling.
I say BS. It's ludicrous to think that any man, with two ounces of common sense, would look to kill or be killed over something like defending someone's honor from being called a name. At the risk of "getting anyone upset" I will say...this is my opinion. To each their own. If someone wants to re-enact a Texas Walker Ranger episode only to realize when it's too late that life isn't Hollywood...and there's no "take two"...who am I to begrudge them their desire to go out in a blaze of glory (yes...Young Guns reference).
A self confident man, making rational decisions, holding his and his family's best interest at heart knows when to de-escalate a situation in order to avoid blood shed over name calling and insults. Even verbal threats. We have a duty to acr responsibly as armed individuals. This isn't the wild west.
Trust me....myself or family's lives are actually in danger....of DEATH? I do whatever is necessary to protect them.
Someone calls my wife a whore? As I said, while it's a tough pill to swallow...walk away. I know she's not. She knows she's not. It's called having tough skin, being realistic and being an adult.
But hey, to each their own. I'm quite content with my manhood and have a set bigger than most...I just don't need to parade it about and look to put every knucklehead in his place every day of the week.

by COL Pete Farrell
Information technology has revolutionized our society and our Army. Those of us who are privileged to serve as Signal Regiment members are experiencing new and expanding roles, missions and requirements as our Army continues to leverage Information-Age technologies as a basis for warfighting. The soldiers and leaders who operate, maintain and employ IT systems are becoming increasingly critical to battlefield success; new and greater demands are placed upon them daily. These demands will continue to grow exponentially.
Likewise, the infusion of new technologies and increasing use of commercial-off-the-shelf products, as well as new digital systems, are taking place side-by-side with the continual operation of legacy systems. The result is a mixture of old and new communications and information systems for the foreseeable future.
All this has created an enormous challenge for the Army�s training base as training struggles to keep pace with IT changes. Our soldiers and leaders are required to be skilled in the science of operating and maintaining IT systems and networks, as well as the art of employing, fighting and protecting them. The skills required to operate in today�s IT force are constantly being modified by changes in technology, and these skills will decay or perish if they aren�t frequently employed or refreshed. The current resident education-and-training model doesn�t lend itself to frequent training opportunities. Likewise, it places an enormous reliance on having actual equipment at the schoolhouse to conduct the required training.
Now that IT has revolutionized our society and our Army, we must radically change the ways we train our soldiers and leaders in the IT arena. We must aggressively move to leverage new education-and-training technologies and methodologies, and we must revolutionize the way we train IT soldiers and leaders.
The Signal Center at Fort Gordon, Ga., created the IT and digital-training master plan to provide a vision and roadmap for meeting the education-and-training needs of Signal and IT soldiers, leaders and units. This master plan represents a major change in the way we will train the force, now and in the future.
These changes start with the adoption of lifelong learning as the education-and-training approach for our community. The lifelong model includes a mixture of traditional schoolhouse resident instruction as well as instruction presented at other locations, and it�s consistent with education-and-training trends in industry and academia. The location of instruction becomes progressively less relevant as the learning approach matures and the Army culture evolves to accept it. As the student advances in experience, rank and responsibilities, the education focus is less on knowledge and basic skills to more on attitudes and strategic skills required for accessing and using technology-assisted learning materials just-in-time and on-demand at the individual�s location.
Lifelong learning as an approach for education and training considers all members of the Signal and IT force, including civilian employees, to be engaged in learning wherever they�re located. It�s a total approach that includes instruction and materials delivered in synchronous and asynchronous modes, just-in-time, on-demand and adapted to students involved in formal school programs and courses as well as practical day-to-day duties and activities.
A primary goal of lifelong learning is to minimize differences in learning that take place in the schoolhouse and at other locations. Lifelong learning, in fact, implements instruction using the most cost-effective mix of locations, materials and methods.
Lifelong learning represents a real change in the way the business of education and training is conducted. The approach impacts the relationship of the schoolhouse and student. Our schoolhouse accepts and assumes the same responsibility for students at all locations, which impacts the design of training materials, the focus and responsibilities of staff and faculty, student records, funding allocations and other factors associated with learning, testing and certifying students. It also requires that the student accept and assume higher levels of personal responsibility for his or her education. Distance learning and web-based education-and-training materials are tools of lifelong learning.
We�re forming the University of Information Technology at the Signal Center as the organizational structure for delivering lifelong learning and training to our soldiers, leaders and units. This university is much more than brick and mortar. It will be a combination of hardware, software, facilities, connectivity and people providing lifelong-learning materials, information and support that includes 24/7 reachback for the Signal and IT community � including Active and Reserve Components, other military services, joint commands and agencies as well as alumni.
We expect UIT to facilitate and foster lifelong professional and personal relationships and to become the "home" university for Signal and IT soldiers, leaders and their families, including alumni. UIT will have the same responsibility for all students, regardless of their location, and it eliminates any differences between students located at Fort Gordon and other locations; all its students will be the same.
UIT�s components include colleges derived by transitioning the Signal Center and Fort Gordon schools to this status and establishing relationships with commercial training sites, units, armories and individual homes. The components also include relationships with academic and research organizations that are supporting UIT�s education-and-training needs.
The master plan includes a new education-and-training model that provides assignment-oriented training to get better-trained soldiers and leaders to the field faster. AOT provides focused training for follow-on assignments.
The assignment-oriented education-and-training model enables the university to fulfill its responsibilities for:
|Training soldiers on the science of using systems;
|Training leaders on the science of using systems and the art of planning, designing, establishing, fighting and protecting systems and networks within the context of an operational plan;
|Providing knowledge-based training common to all Signal and IT soldiers and leaders;
|Including education and training of theory and principles in knowledge-based training. This training includes embedding and reinforcing theory and principles as part of military-occupation-specialty specific training at the "teachable moment";
|Including testing and evaluation to verify that soldiers and leaders arrive at their units trained; and
|Providing "tracked" AOT tailored to follow-on assignments.
The education-and-training model is flexible. It doesn�t assume one-size-fits-all and can be tailored to meet the needs of individual MOSs, soldiers and/or leaders. These changes include those resulting from continued insertion of new technologies and adoption of new missions that impact Signal and IT soldiers and leaders. The model supports training of legacy, digital and COTS systems for an increased student throughput that can be expected as the Army, other military services and joint commands and agencies continue fielding more communication and digital systems across the force.
|The assignment-oriented education-and-training model. Bottom line: the new system will place better trained, more focused soldiers in the field more quickly and cheaply.
The model puts soldiers and leaders in the field faster with knowledge of theory and principles � soldiers and leaders who have received training "tailored" to their unit assignment. Placing trained soldiers and leaders removes the burden of AOT from units in the field and supports an improved partnership of UIT and these units.
We�re establishing a network of remote campuses at locations with special needs and/or high densities of Signal and IT soldiers and leaders, such as Fort Lewis, Wash., III Corps at Fort Hood, Texas, and XVIII Airborne Corps at Fort Bragg, N.C.
These remote campuses enable us to take education and training to the location of the lifelong student � our soldiers and leaders. The lifelong-learning approach, sponsored by UIT, extends beyond Fort Gordon�s physical boundaries to include individuals at other locations with the same rights and privileges as students located at Fort Gordon.
Signal and IT education and training is ideally suited for using simulations at UIT and other locations. Most of the tasks Signal and IT soldiers and leaders perform can best be acquired via "learning by doing," so we�re aggressively developing simulations to support technical (science) and tactical (art) education and training. The design for these simulations includes distribution to the locations of our soldiers, leaders and units.
These simulations are expected to become the preferred content for our education and training. They include heavily technical subjects that can be supported with personal-computer-based simulations and stimulation.
We�ll be using a mixture of traditional education-and-training materials and methods that quickly give way to interactive virtual and constructive environments. Validation will take place in these virtual and constructive environments and, when required, in live environments to achieve very cost-effective training.
UIT will be exporting simulations to the remote campuses and to units in the field, as well as to individual soldiers and leaders.
We�re establishing a University Resource Center to provide primary access and 24/7 reachback to the university. This resource center will also integrate, manage and distribute simulation software.
We realize the master plan is a major undertaking that�s much larger than Fort Gordon. It includes partnerships with Signal and information units, other Training and Doctrine Command schools, military services and organizations, academia, research organizations and industry. We�re looking to private organizations as true partners to assist us in developing a research program which advances and recognizes the professionalism of our people, helping us bring together a consortium to advance our community�s needs and to advocate our needs at local and national levels.
We�re taking a number of concrete actions to implement the master plan. These actions include establishing functional implementation task forces that are preparing implementation-and-action plans. These action plans are bite-size chunks that will result, over time, in accomplishing the master plan.
The action plans are identifying specific actions to be accomplished, assigning lead and supporting responsibilities, and specifying milestones and timelines for completing each action. These action plans include conducting a prototype evaluation of the assignment-oriented education-and-training model for MOS 31R and of the PC-based technical simulation to support training for follow-on assignments of 31R soldiers.
In addition to membership from USASC&FG and its schools, ITFs include representatives from the Reserve Components, "remote" sites such as Fort Hood and major Signal and IT units, organizations and agencies. The representatives from beyond USASC&FG are considered particularly critical for including the needs and concerns of the larger community UIT serves. Also, this larger membership supports developing "real" partnerships with the field.
The realization of the IT and digital-training master plan with UIT, a new education-and-training model and the use of simulations as the basis for learning aren�t isolated to USASC&FG. It�s a major project that involves the participation and support of agencies such as Headquarters TRADOC and Headquarters Department of the Army, as well as Forces Command and many of its units. ITFs are identifying action items such as student assignment policies and procedures, funding formulas that recognize education and training the university will provide at other locations, and new testing-and-certification policies and procedures for lifelong learning. Identifying these action items includes outside organizations and agencies that must support the implementation plans and recommendations for working with them toward successful implementation.
We also have formed an executive steering committee to oversee implementation of the master plan. ESC members include representatives of the USASC&FG command group, the university and Reserve Components, as well as Signal and IT field units who understand the vision and potential and are responsible for implementing the master plan. We also are considering including representatives from academia and industry on the committee. The full ESC is expected to formally meet semi-annually to review plans and progress, and to make recommendations.
IT soldiers will be the glue that holds our knowledge-based Army together. Proper training for these soldiers will require a radical new change in the way we�ve done business.
The Signal and IT community is traveling a path that�s a long-term undertaking. All of us recognize there�s a lot of work to do. We�re fundamentally changing education-and-training paradigms for the Signal and IT community. These changes have long-term relevance and military value to our community and the nation it serves. The journey will proceed in bite-size chunks as technologies and methodologies mature and become available, as funding and other resources are made available and as our culture evolves to embrace the vision.
The IT and digital-training master plan is a living document. It�s designed to be adapted over time to accommodate changing realities, circumstances and the vision of future Signal and IT leaders. With support from Signal and IT leaders, the master plan represents a rallying point of pride for the university and the community it serves.

Secret "Buybacks" of LDC Debt
AbstractWe analyse the buy-back of its debt by an LDC. Contrary to the analyses that were previously done on this subject, we assume that the debtor can hide its transactions behind the veil of a fictitious operator: the banks, we assume, cannot discriminate intra-bank transactions from buy-backs by the debtor itself. With this assumption, the lenders set the price by (rationally) taking account of the country's incentive to repurchase its debt. Will the debtor undertake a buy-back of its debt? The answer is a qualified yes. Large buy-backs will take place. With a continuum of debtors (whose cash constraints are not perfectly known to the banks), the rich debtors will attempt to repurchase as much of their debt as their cash constraint allows them to. This is shown to be Pareto-improving for both the banks and the debtor country.

-Why the ban on social media + certain websites like BBC and even Yahoo… "the government's effort to neutralize critical online opinion comes after a series of large anti-Japanese, anti-pollution, anti-corruption protests, and ethnic riots, many of which were organized or publicized using instant messaging services, chat rooms, and text messages."
(they basically do not want people to protest again like 1989 Tiananmen Square where over 100,000 students + intellectuals protested and the People's Liberation Army used live fire to disperse crowds killing several hundred people.)
- at least 18,000 websites are blocked from within mainland China.
-size of the Internet police is rumored at more than 30,000
- violaters can face up to $1800 (15,000Yuan) or imprisonment for crimes
-Government authorities not only block website content but also monitor the Internet access of individuals. Even trigger words typed OR SPOKEN over phone like "protest" will purposely be interrupted or dropped.
- China "has the largest recorded number of imprisoned journalists and cyber-dissidents in the world." The offences of which they are accused include communicating with groups abroad, opposing the persecution of people, signing online petitions, and calling for reform and an end to corruption.
While in Korea I found it really interesting to learn just HOW popular plastic surgery is among teens and young adults. The desired result being a more "Western" look with wider eyes (a procedure called double eyelid surgery) whiter skin and higher nose bridges.
Plastic surgery is SO common among teens that it is very commonly used as an incentive from parents to guarantee good grades in school with surgery being paid for and done over summer or winter break. There is a presumption that a certain look will allow an advantage in job hunting, college admissions and even finding a better husband.
Both male & females partake in these surgeries that can be as quick as a 3 hr visit or up to 3 months as in jaw/cheekbone reconstruction upon where the patient has their jaw wired shut. OUCH!
Plastic surgery in Korea has become very popular with Japanese, Chinese and Korean Americans flying in to have these procedures done!
Many of the Korean pop stars and celebrities have done multiple surgeries to get what I like to call the desired 'wide-eyed CUTE' look!
I came to realize that it is not just America that has an obsession with image and what society feeds us as 'desirable' or like-able.
It is truly worldwide!

Every morning I write in my journal and it has become a practice I have made a habit after learning about it from the amazing book The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron.
Regardless of if I feel like writing, have nothing to write about or feel my journal entry is bland, it does not matter, I do 3pages of my 'morning pages' each day.
Since starting this journal (marked with a post here on my blog) back in December I have reintroduced myself to the "morning pages" because I slipped off for awhile and with this being the year of my wedding I really wanted to put down all my thoughts, feelings, joys and frustrations in planning this big day.
I've almost filled up this journal and will have to look for a new one soon but I feel very good about seeing all those pages filled with my words that express my ideas and feelings. This journal is something tangible and created by me and it puts into perspective the measurement of my life in time by way of each page AND of value by expressions with the words I choose!
The more I write with this new perspective the more I choose to fill each page with things I am grateful for, the beauty in the relationships and environment around me and the dreams I have for myself. In seeing that a piece of my life can be preserved in ONE journal in roughly 12 weeks I want to make sure that each installment really captures where my heart is at that time and ultimately how I have grown + evolved.
I choose my words just as I must always remember that I choose what I expereince in this life. How I react is a choice therefore how I write about it is a choice.

Lead Israel
This conversation is closed.
Can we abolish nationalism and live in a globalized society?
The holocaust is an integral part of education in Israel. And for years Israeli students are attending programs and are going to Poland to learn and go through an emotional process, which usually ends in an educational message. Some messages are Zionist, some talk about democracy and humanity; others grow nationalization in students and encourage them to join the army.
A lot of years have passed since the holocaust and it seems people are starting to forget around the world. The world turns more and more extreme and nationalism grows like a disease. I never truly understood why Palestinians and Jews cant live in the same land [and no, I do not discount this conflict like many people in the world do].
And I assume most of you here are global minded humanists, but don't think racism and hatred is only among us silly Middle Eastrens, your cultures and you and I personally tend to generalize groups with out even noticing.
That's thought led me to a kind of depression. All my family died in the holocaust for what? For the countries to continue hating one another?
I know this banal statement directly leads you to think im some kind of a weirdo not practical hippi, and believe me; im not.
But I would like you to the following question in a creative and original way ["this is human nature and we cant do nothing about it" is not an answer].
Can the world live with out extreme nationalization, with out borders, with out hatred between different groups? Can the world be fully globalized?
P.S this is my first Ted question :) hopes it will lead to an interesting debate.

The cork is a sign of humility, an object of little value, often used as art supplies, as a simple and easily manipulated element with which to play and create. The use of cork gives it the air of something simple, characteristic of an everyday product. The cap is the element that unifies and personalizes the entire line. The reason designed for each label refers to the country of origin

Found August 14, 2013 on MLB Injury News:
PLAYERS: Andre Ethier
TEAMS: Los Angeles Dodgers, Chicago Cubs
TEAMS: Los Angeles Dodgers, Chicago Cubs
The Los Angeles Dodgers scratched Andre Ethier from last night's lineup, as the outfielder continues to be hampered by a sore left calf, according to Austin Laymance of MLB.com. Upon arriving at Dodger Stadium, Ethier was sent to be examined by team physicians after he complained of discomfort in his leg. Manager Don Mattingly told reporters that the ailment has lingered since Ethier was hit by a pitch during a contest against the Chicago Cubs on Aug. 4. "They wanted the doctor to look at him because it's been a while and all of a sudden it got worse," Mattingly said. While Mattingly hadn't seen Ethier before speaking with reporters, he was told by doctors that the outfielder is "OK." The skipper was still debating whether or not Ethier would be available off the bench last night, so it doesn't sound like an injury that will keep him out for an extended stretch. While fellow outfielders, including Carl Crawford and Matt Kemp, have dealt with injuries this season, Ethier has proven durable. However, his production at the plate has been less than what he's hoped for, as the 31-year-old has hit .267/.350/.393 with 25 doubles and seven home runs over 452 plate appearances.

Sounds like your friend just pissed off a cop who feels strongly for what he does.
Seems ok to me.
Did he take your friend in? If not, I'd say let it be. The guy could've been a lot worse.
I'd say your friend was lucky. The cop easily could've found some reason to arrest him. Your friend showed a complete lack of respect for what the cop does, and the cop felt like calling him out. What's the big deal? If it was abuse of power (which it wasn't), you really don't wanna press it. If you do, they'll give you a hella lotta trouble.
Your friend should have a little more respect.
And yeah, the officer could very easily have found a reason to haul him in. That disorderly conduct charge is a wonderfully easy tool for the police to use in almost any situation.
These days I don't hang around people that do that kind of dumb ****. I had lots of problems when I was younger due to foolish acts by friends and won't put up with any of that anymore.
If he didn't get arrested what are you complaining about? I am sure he could have found something.
In norway you have to spend a night in a cell with no lights or nothing but just a whole in the ground if you try do that, amnesty international are on our tails for that.
amnesty can be a pain in the ar**.
prison should not be nice. they are there as a deteraite in wanting to go there.
Yes it was abuse of power. If there was no reason to put him in the back of the car, then that could be considered false imprisonment. Being cursed at is also a lack of professionalism. If the cop really believes in what he's doing HE should show more respect for the people he's working for. What your friend did, as you describe it, is not illegal. If you're in the States, you're still protected under the 1st amendment. You have the right to your opinion as long as it doesn't infringe on other's rights. If the cop doesn't like it, it's time he find a different line of work. Never surrender your Liberty... too many good people have sacrificed their lives for it.
Try to tell that to any cop or judge, and see just how far you get.
Bottomline, the guy was intoxicated, and the guy showed no respect to the officer.
You think he'd have a chance in hell of making a complaint? Let's see, he's drunk in public, acting disorderly (yep), niether of which is legal by the laws of most states, and the cop set him in the back of the car to assess the situation. THat's perfectly legal and within his power. Its not a wrongful imprisonment, nor is it an abuse of power.
Its not a matter of opinion. Its a matter of a drunk kid acting like a moron.
Sure he didn't have to swear, big deal. Think of it as scared straight program. I am a beleiver in freedom and that alot of cops are pricks, but your buddy was f*cking off and got yelled at big deal.
As far as what so many people have giving up for liberty, what do you that cop is doing?
Your friend showed a complete lack of respect and intelligence. Ooooooh yea thats so funny....I am gonna play punch a police car while a policeman is in it. The guy puts his life on the line daily and thats how you thank him. Next time why not try tapping on the window and say hey I appreciate you being here. I'm sure they don't hear it enough.
Hey, don't get me wrong- I have nothing against the police. Working part time in a gun store, I have gotten to be good friends with a lot of officers. Still, acting like a moron isn't illegal so far as I know. (and I never said that he wasn't a moron for doing what he did- that was pretty stupid) I am a big believer in personal freedom (and personal responsibility, too) and I think if you let anyone step on your rights, you may as well start living on your knees. Having a background in security, I also have an idea about some things that are not permissible(it was drilled into my head), no matter what you see on t.v. I grew up with some guys that became police officers after high school. I guess they were looking to be in a position of authority because that's how they treat people, now. They talk down to them and generally treat others like ****. The badge doesn't make you a man (or woman), it's the man that makes the badge something to respect.
Dang, where I grew up that behavior would have warranted a nice little conversation with the night stick behind the 7-11. Your buddy and the cop were equally a**inine.
Add it up and if you have 10 fingers, 10 toes and nothing broken count it as a win and go home. God bless America or something like that.
maybe you should count your blessings- if you looked dangerous, you may have ingested lead, too
HMM wat u complaing about, if i was that cop, just for the fun of it i would of wooped ur friends ass. lol
Cops are people too. It seems like too many people forget how much sh*t they deal with on a daily basis. Its not too much to ask to show them a little respect.
respect is earned, it can't be demanded
So a guy that goes out night after night, risking his life protecting people that can't stand him doesn't deserve respect.
I agree with you PowerManDL,when you put it like that cops do deserve a lot of respect.Besides you never know the cop you sass off to might be the one who saves your life.Quote:

And frankm007,IMO your friend got off easy for acting like a fool. Acting like your kicking a cop's car is like going into an airport and making terrorist comments.In other words it's not too smart
:nod: Agreed.
I didn't see anything wrong with what the cop did.
Neither do I. It's like listening to Foreigner -- you shouldn't feel guilty.
yeah, yeah, yeah. there are a few good cops but most of them are on a power trip. dont try to tell me different cause i have worked out with lots of them

The Life and Death Debate
by J.P. Moreland, Norman L. Geisler
This work is an introductory treatment of issues and options in social and bioethics which center on the end of life. The purpose of Moreland and Geisler's book is to offer a beginning survey of these issues to someone unfamiliar with philosophy. The book simplifies and summarizes various end-of-life topics without being simplistic or caricaturing different viewpoints, even though the authors' own viewpoint is made perfectly clear. The major intention of this book is to make the reader think more clearly and deeply about the important issues discussed between its covers.

Sources say reforms are being made to the Baltimore City Liquor Board, from within, from above and from outside.
First, from within: In recent weeks, Liquor License Commissioner Elizabeth Smith has been visiting community associations, including the Fell's Prospect Community Association and the Fell's Point Community Association. She has been seeking community input, she says, and also updating the community on changes being made to the Liquor Board, which is controlled by the state and self-funded.
"We're trying to be as transparent as possible," Smith told the Guide.
Smith is one of three quasi-judicial commissioners appointed by the state to preside over and decide upon matters related to liquor licensing. If a liquor establishment is cited for violations, then the holder of the liquor license must appear before the board of three commissioners—Smith, Harvey Jones and Chair Stephan Fogleman—who may decide to reprimand the licensee, levy a fine, suspend the license or revoke the license.
The other arm of the Liquor Board includes the inspectors and administrative staff, such as the executive secretary and the deputy executive secretary. As Executive Secretary Samuel Daniels Jr. has resigned effective July 1, Assistant Executive Secretary Douglas Paige is heading the administrative arm for now.
Smith said that operating procedures are being standardized for the inspectors, who visit liquor establishments to confirm that regulations are being followed or to investigate citizen complaints. She said in an email that the Liquor Board is currently examining "best practices" in similar city inspections agencies, particularly Baltimore Housing's Code Enforcement Division.
"We believe that best practices are existing in the city already," wrote Smith in an email, "and we are interested in adapting them to remove waste or redundancy, increase productivity, and restore the public's trust."
In a past interview, Fogleman said that the inspectors performed duties based on "oral tradition" within the agency, rather than following concrete procedures. The audit itself cited inconsistent inspections practices as a problem in the agency, with inspectors visiting some liquor outlets multiple times and others not at all, among other issues.
Smith said that while only Fogleman, the chair, has authority over the day-to-day operations of the agency, he is sharing what he knows with herself and Jones.
"Currently, all members are sharing oversight responsibility with the Chairman, and I have personally taken great interest with communicating our intent with neighborhoods across Baltimore City," wrote Smith.
The commissioners now meet with Paige on a weekly basis, she added.
"Previously, we met quarterly to be briefed but have assumed more oversight and provide more input," Smith wrote.
So far, some changes have been made. Immediately after the audit, the inspectors' daily required visits increased from four to six. And effective July 1, Inspectors will be required to visit 10 locations per day, Smith said. Furthermore, the commissioners are looking into the cost and feasibility of acquiring hand-held equipment that scans liquor licenses and verifies that an inspection occurred.
"Our goal is to increase accountability of inspections with real-time data of performance and outcomes," wrote Smith.
Citizens' group
From outside, Christina Schoppert Devereaux, staff attorney for the Community Law Center, confirmed that about 14 individuals—both community leaders and private residents—have been meeting to address Liquor Board issues.
"Once we get our goals focused, we'll reach out to more of the community—bar owners, politicians and health experts," Schoppert Devereaux said.
The goal of the citizens' group is to "reform the Liquor Board."
"The first step would be to present a legislative package to respond to specific audit points," she said. "These are issues that we've seen many, many times over the years, and now that they're in the public view, it's time to capitalize on that."
On the side, Schoppert Devereaux is attending Liquor Board hearings and penning a watchdog blog, "Booze News: Distilled in Room 215," online at communitylaw.org/programs/booze-news.
From above, State Senator Bill Ferguson (46th) has confirmed that the governor has ordered a task force, which includes members from the state legislature, to look into the audit's findings and recommend a course of action.

Centerville police say they were forced to fatally shoot an armed and suicidal man after he answered pleas to surrender by pointing a handgun at officers.
Assistant Chief Paul Child said Monday that one Centerville officer was on administrative leave pending review of the Sunday afternoon shooting, which resulted in the death of 38-year-old Vincent John Farrand.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
The 3:28 p.m. shooting at 550 South 300 East is being investigated by the Davis County Attorney's Office, Davis County Critical Incident Protocol Team and the Clearfield Police Department.
The incident began with a 911 call from Farrand's wife, who told a dispatcher that he was upset with a male acquaintance he thought had made an inappropriate advance toward her. Farrand and his wife had been arguing over the matter when he armed himself and left, indicating he was driving to the other man's home in Bountiful.
She also told the dispatcher that Farrand was suicidal.
Bountiful and Centerville police began looking for Farrand and his white Chevrolet truck, only to learn that he had returned to his own home in Centerville.
Three officers arrived at the Farrand residence, where the wife came outside and was removed from the area for her safety. Moments later, Farrand, gun in hand, also came outside and approached police in his front yard.
"While one officer stayed with [the wife] the other two officers confronted Vincent in the front yard," Child said. "One officer asked Vincent several times to put the gun down and to take his finger off of the trigger. The officer ... pled with him to put the gun down."
Instead, Farrand pointed the handgun at one of the officers. One of the officers fired four shots, striking Farrand. Paramedics were unable to save Farrand, who was pronounced dead at the scene at 4:27 p.m. Sunday, Child said.
Due to the ongoing nature of the investigation and pending determination by the state Medical Examiner's Office of the official cause of death, details on how many shots struck Farrand and where he was wounded were not released.

This week the world welcomes its latest celeb baby. Penelope Scotland joins mama Kourtney Kardashian, daddy Scott Disick, and the rest of the Kardash clan. No doubt she'll get the chicest onesies, hottest toys, and a tricked-out stroller. But there is one thing the newest member of the Hollywood tot club thankfully doesn't have -- the WTF name.
I'll admit Scotland is an unusual choice and I am sure it has more to do with honoring her pompous pop than the actual country. But if you ask me, little Penny got off easy. Stars just have different standards when it comes to naming their children. It's as if they think their spawn are immune to being mercilessly teased.
Forget Apple, Coco, and Suri. Those monikers are tame compared to, say, Moxie CrimeFighter and Diva Muffin (I swear I didn't make those up). Check out the 52 wackiest celeb baby names ever:

The best and worst BioWare companions
Warning! The following article contains MASSIVE SPOILERS for the Mass Effect, Baldur's Gate, Knights of the Old Republic, and Dragon Age series.
With a new Dragon Age on the way, we've been reminiscing about our favourite, and least favourite, BioWare companions. Interesting buddies, and sometimes enemies, have been a staple of BioWare games since Baldur's Gate, and the studio is famous for creating people you actually care about. So I decided to ask the entire PC Gamer team who among the vast pantheon of BioWare NPCs they hate, and who they love. Some of the answers may surprise you. Especially Chris Thursten's.

Veteran Stampede Cheer coaches, Abby Gottlieb and Annamarie McDaniel, and first year coach Jenna Zellmer knew they had a special team at the beginning of the Oakdale Stampede season but they soon discovered their girls were not only talented, but champions.
You could sew the collection of Sac-Joaquin Section banners obtained by Oakdale High's wrestling program into a king-sized quilt.
Those epic Oakdale-Sonora football games may soon be replaced by Oakdale-Central Catholic.
Oakdale High custodians should check the roof of the Mustang gymnasium for holes, because Austin Archuleta shot the roof off the place on Feb. 1.
Between game-winning shots at the buzzer, game-tying three-pointers in the final moments and stellar post play against the biggest team in the league; it's been an exciting run of games for Oakdale High's varsity boys basketball team.
There's no crying in baseball, but there sure is plenty of it in wrestling.
And just like that, the seams attaching Valley Oak League jerseys with their success over Oakdale High's varsity boys basketball team have burst amidst the flexing of Mustang muscles.
Among the plethora of Oakdale High wrestlers listed on the California Wrestling Newsletter state rankings, 195-pound senior Hondo Arpoika is not the highest ranked. However, Arpoika made progress in that regard by advancing from "honorable mention" into the top-40 ranked wrestlers in the state by landing a fifth place medal at the prestigious Temecula Valley Battle for the Belt on Jan. 19. Arpoika won big matches in both the championship and consolation bracket. He bested Dylan Bollinger of Sultana 3-1 on his way to the medal podium.
The strength of the lineup represented by Oakdale High's wrestling team will be on emphatic display on Feb. 2 at Lincoln High in Stockton, where only a miracle will prevent the Mustangs from nabbing a seventh Sac-Joaquin Section Division IV team duals title in eight seasons.
Kylie Gust heroically drained three straight free throws with .6 seconds remaining in regulation to launch Oakdale High's varsity girls basketball team into an overtime contest against East Union on Jan. 24.
Maybe you are slapping your bare arms and legs like they stole your headgear or maybe your headphones are blasting Justin Bieber's "Beauty and a Beat" while your teammates assume its Metallica.
Oakdale's boys basketball team was eight minutes away from securing its first Valley Oak League win of the season at Manteca High on Thursday, but the Mustangs were held to a single point for the final 7:59.
Somewhere in the midst of the scuffles and fouls, Oakdale High's varsity girls basketball team found a mean streak on Jan. 16.
Some of the best high school wrestling teams in the country again converged on California for one of the toughest tournaments of the year on Jan. 18 and 19 at the Temecula Valley Battle for the Belt.
It was only fitting that a spectacular performance by junior guard Christina Cobarruvias was highlighted by a signature moment in the Mustang gymnasium on Jan. 16.
The 2014 Nature Valley First Tee Open at Pebble Beach is this weekend, Sept. 26 through 28 and at least one local golfer will be on the links. Fans and spectators will be treated to viewing celebrities, pro golfers, most likely enjoy great weather and also get to see local golf phenom, Mabel Wong.
The Valley Oak League's first cross country meet of the season was hosted at Legion Park in Modesto on Wednesday, Sept. 17 and featured an outstanding effort from the Oakdale Mustangs.
With the preseason winding down, Oakdale's fall sports are gearing up for league play, with some already into their league schedule. The following is a quick glance at some of the Mustangs' week in review.
If you were anywhere in the city limits of Oakdale on Friday night, odds are you could probably hear the stomping of the feet from both Oakdale and Turlock fans hitting the bleachers, roars from both sides of the field, the hard hits or even the rich voice of Mustang announcer Pete Simoncini. However, if you didn't witness the Mustangs late fourth quarter heroics live from The Corral, you missed something special. The varsity Mustangs found themselves on the winning end of a 30-29 nail bitter against visiting Turlock in non-league play.
With a solid 3-2-3 record thus far, coach Alfredo Quiroga and the Oakdale High School boys soccer team are optimistic about the upcoming regular season.
Friday night football is back at The Corral as the Mustangs hosted longtime rivals, the Sonora Wildcats in the 2014 season opener. Even though Sonora is no longer in the Valley Oak League, the rivalry between the two schools went on for 91 years in league play and still holds up as a big rivalry in California.
The long awaited Oakdale High School football 2014 season is under way. After spring and summer workouts, two-a-days once practices could officially begin earlier this month, and team meetings, the Mustangs hosted a home scrimmage against the Tracy Bulldogs on Saturday, Aug. 23.
Thirty-two local sports legends – including an Oakdale icon – will be inducted into the 2014 Sac-Joaquin Section Hall of Fame later this month. Representing Oakdale High School is decorated basketball coach and athletic director Norm Antinetti.
With school starting up this week, the athletic programs don't waste any time, as many of the practices for the fall campaign will start on Monday, Aug. 11. Here is a brief rundown of the teams that will be hitting the playing fields and courts this fall.

Sergeant Steve Walker Honored
Date of News Release: 12/07/2012
(LONDON, KY.) - On Wednesday, December 05, 2012 Sergeant Steve Walker, of Kentucky State Police Post 11, London, was honored by the Kentucky Office of Highway Safety (KOHS) at the 2012 Governor's Impaired Driving Enforcement Awards ceremony held at the Galt House Hotel and Suites in Louisville.
Sergeant Walker, who has earned the award 18 times, is a 30 year veteran of the KSP and earned this years award for arresting 277 impaired drivers over the past year.
"Impaired driving is not an accident it's an epidemic of careless disregard for human life," said KOHS Director Bill Bell, who presented the awards at the ceremony. "These officers, their departments and agencies render a great service for public safety by removing drunken and drugged drivers from our roads."
Last year, Kentucky recorded more than 5,600 crashes related to drugs and alcohol, resulting in 150 deaths and more than 3,000 injuries.
"Public safety improves exponentially every time an impaired driver is removed from the roadway," said Kentucky State Police Commissioner Rodney Brewer. "Were it not for the actions of these men and women, there would undoubtedly be more crashes, injuries or worse on our roadways."
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), 1 in 3 Americans will be impacted by a drunken driving crash in his or her lifetime.
"Research shows high-visibility enforcement reduces impaired-driving fatalities by as much as 20 percent," said NHTSA Region III Law Enforcement Liaison Bill Tower. "While many people are getting the message, there are still too many who just don't understand that alcohol and driving are a fatal combination."
Matt Jones with Kentucky Sports Radio recorded a public service announcement encouraging the use of designated drivers that airs during his daily radio show. Jones took the opportunity to praise the officers for their commitment to keeping Kentucky roads safe.
"Hard-working, high-profile coaches and athletes receive public recognition and accolades for their jobs," said Jones. "You are here today because of your hard work and dedication to your job of saving lives, and we value your efforts."
To raise awareness of the dangers of impaired driving and to alert the public of an increased enforcement presence over the holidays, the annual Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign will begin Dec. 14, 2012, and run through Jan. 1, 2013. This campaign is sponsored by NHTSA and the KOHS.


text: As a mother of two young children, Cristin understands the desire for a home to be functional, yet beautiful. Blending the two disciplines of home organization and interior design resonated with her and thus Simplified Bee® was born. She believes that surrounding yourself with lovely, organized spaces reduces stress, makes you happier, and inspires healthier living. The most common decorating mistake is having too much clutter. Cristin's advice is to purge often and display only what you love. When decorating, her favorite interior designs are approachable, multi-layered, and artfully blend old and new. It's all about striking a balance. Don't be afraid to mix period styles, patterns and textures, and vintage or worldly pieces. She's not a fan of interiors that are too matchy-matchy, but prefers those that are more eclectic and evolve over time.

Kate, think that maybe your DH and you could read something like this and agree to use it?
That is a VERY popular book in my library and I have heard great things from it from our patrons. I haven't read it entirely myself but DH and I were reading it together when we were still in early TTC stages and figured we would have a toddler by now. It seemed like it would be a really great and healthy approach to dealing with kids and something that we both agreed upon (and it was pretty similiar to how both our moms raised us).

One day as Ken Carson was driving around he began wondering how hard it would be to rename the street next to the shop he manages, That's Entertainment, in Worcester, Mass. "I asked a friend and he said it wouldn't be too hard." But what to name it? "It could be Della Street from Perry Mason or Margo Lane who was the girl friend of the Shadow. But then I thought, well Lois Lane has been around since 1938 and she's in comics."
Ken Carson
And so Marmon Place, a private way that runs adjacent to the shop began the almost two year process of being renamed in honor of one of the world's most famous reporters and girlfriend/wife Superman.
Today the comic shop held an unveiling ceremony for the sign. In attendance were comics fans and entrants in Lois Lane look-alike contest.
Two of the entrants in the contest were nine year old Morgan Monfreido who knows Lois Lane from the Smallville TV program and Emily Thurlow who is a journalist whose nickname is "Local Lois Lane"
To celebrate the occasion the shop also had artist Paul Ryan who drew Lois Lane in the wedding issue of Clark Kent and Lois Lane in Superman:The Wedding Album on hand doing free sketches.
The big moment finally came around 4:30 when people trooped outside to see the official unveiling of the street:
And with a pull of the small curtain:
Lois Lane is open.
I asked Carson how it felt about DC's decision to make Superman and Wonder Woman a couple. He smiled and said, "Well … it's a diversion … Eventually they'll go back to the way it is … to the iconic couple. But people will have been able to read the story of how they came together."
TE was my goto comics spot in college! :)
My local shop!
I think I've been to that store.
TE is totally a great store and I'm a little jealous!

Alfresco Enterprise Content Management Document management is a prerequisite for the efficient organization of any successful company. Regardless of category, size, number of employees or type of business activities, ownership and operation of information is crucial for efficient performance of the core business of the company. Document management involves filing, sorting and organizing documents in the database. Automated document management system can save your company a year and up to 150 hours of work! In this we ask that every employee, client or accountant may have a special profile of users with defined access rights - thus avoiding the possibility that all users see all the documents, and within this profile will be placed all the information needed for mutual cooperation. Search by various criteria (name, description of contents, date created, text, author, category), increased control over documents, versioning and workflow tracking and security of data and information are the main advantages of automated records system. Enterprise Content Management (ECM) is a combination of technologies, strategies, methods and tools used to collect, control, the stored, preserved and handed over to the use of electronic content and documents related to an organization and its business. ECM - according to the method of controlling documents has identified five components of the system:
Alfresco is the leading Open Source ECM, easy to use, compatible with Windows, Linux and Mac platform. Alfresco DMS allows you to organize and facilitate cooperation in the creation of documents. Gives the ability to monitor content throughout its life cycle and track changes in the content and user content. Content sharing, security, versioning, management of life through content, process management, collaboration, e-mail notification are just some of the features on which it is safer and more efficient use of existing DMS instead of File System. To access the system does not need any client software, but after the initial setup of Alfresco Web Client to access the system using a web pretraživača.Može be used TFPI, WebDAV, CIFS (network share), and there, and Office plug-in that allows you to access directly from Office packages (Word, Excel and Power Point)

Winning Crown Maple Syrup Converts at Brooklyn Flea's Smorgasburg -- One Taste at a TimeSubmitted by Tamar on July 19, 2011 - 12:37pm
Nathan and I enjoyed another great Saturday at the Smorgasburg on the Brooklyn waterfront, where we were joined for a few hours by Lydia and Maddie Turner. It was a bright, beautiful day. Although it was very hot there was a nice turnout, and well over a hundred people stopped at our booth to sample our delicious Light Amber, Medium Amber and Dark Amber Crown Maple Syrup.
It's wonderful to see people's faces light up at our tastings. Their shoulders relax, they smile, they laugh…the effect is almost like magic! While we put just a little bit in each cup, people are often surprised when we ask if they would like a taste of maple syrup. They're not used to trying pure maple syrup without pouring it over something else. Still, once they take a little sip, they're ready for more, and almost everybody tastes all three grades to see which they like best. When they taste them one after another, people are astonished at how much difference there is in the flavors from one grade to the next, and they often have to re-taste before they can settle on a favorite.
As always, people were amazed by the flavor and quality. We even had one woman tell us that she usually doesn't like maple syrup, but she thought ours was wonderful. Her favorite was Light Amber while her companion preferred Dark Amber. We had many conversations about different ways to use for maple syrup. For simpler treats, I shared my personal favorites: Light Amber over French vanilla ice cream; Medium Amber mixed with sliced strawberries, straight or as a topping for my sister's lemon pound cake, and Dark Amber as an ideal natural sweetener in coffee. People were very interested to learn about the pure maple syrup recipe ideas on our website and I encouraged them to submit their own recipes for our contest. They loved the idea of having a chance to win a Trio!
A lot of families come to the Smorgasburg, and I especially love to see the expressions on children's faces when they get a sip of Crown Maple Syrup. My other favorite thing is to see the reactions of people who come from other syrup-producing areas, like Canada and Vermont. So many people are surprised by the excellent quality that we're producing right here in New York State.
Visitors to the Smorgasburg come from all over! There were plenty of locals there, but we also met Americans who had traveled from states ranging from Maine to Washington. International visitors hailed from Canada, Brazil, Italy, France, and Japan, to name a few. By the end of the day they all had one thing in common – everyone agreed that Crown Maple Syrup tastes superb!
From the Farm provides updates on how the Crown Maple team is turning sap from the some of the most regal maple trees into quite possibly the purest maple syrup on earth. The Crown Maple team shares their insight into maple sugaring, the latest maple syrup production techniques, life in the sugarbush, conserving the land and sustainable forestry. Interested in more?

All Midpen Preserves are open to the public free of charge, 365 days a year from dawn until one-half hour after sunset.
The 1,335-acre preserve features open grassland ridges and forests of redwood, fir, and oak. Peninsula Open Space Trust, a local non-profit land trust, provided major support for acquisition of this preserve.
Visitors can meander through a variety of habitats along the preserves 12 miles of trails.

OK, who is STUPID enough to spend $40,000 for a new bathroom?! My husband and I did most of the work ourselves: he's build a home before, and I have experience with architectural drafting. We designed our own bathroom, and did 95% of the work. We spent our time to find the right fixtures, cabinets and accessories.Since we own our own business, we ran a lot of the supplies through our company at wholesale cost. We had an electrician friend double check our wiring, and a plumber double check our plumbing work. We spent about $8,000 for a 6' x 12' bathroom -- and it looks effing great!
We just had a 28x24 garage installed that includes an enclosed laundry room, attic trusses designed as a "walk in " attic with drop down stairs, R34 insulation, high end insulated garage door and a new driveway for 19K.
At 58K for a 26x26 garage that would be $80 a sqft... You can build a freaking house for that.
Seems everyone has an opinion, if we didn't care about owning a home we'd all live in caves because who knows what a homes value is at any given time, the recent real-estate bust confirms that. So, as a homeowner and remodeler I can't think of to many things more satisfying than making that house your castle, if that means a new bathroom, big master, a nice office, etc. etc. go for it, you only live once and
and who knows the market may be back and you'll recoup all that investment.
As for cost, I think some of these prices are inflated and with a little savvy shopping and a open minded contractor you can save some money with a little contributed effort on the home owners end.
It depends on who are living on that house....ROOF is important if your roof is leaking & have a damaged inside the house the home insurance will not pay. Better read or call your insurance. We did ours last summer it costs us closed to 11,000. 30 years roof & hoping in the future -we don't have to hire a contractor Like pool wasteof money , live in Oregon so we have a natural pool (puddles) it rains here so much fixing roof is very important.
Share the last two comments with as many as you can! How fast can savings news spread?
Test the internet! Scholars!
Obama likes putting people to work and saving money for the public!
Go for it! How fast and educated are you about money! Do you like money? Why give it to the Electric company or utility company alone?
Dear Friends:
Accountants, Mathematicians, Investors, Insurance agents people complain they only have 50-$150 or more utility bill a month. If the cost of repairs is less than their current house payment and / or the cost of solar and other repairs is also less than their current payments, If they took even $50 a month and put it into a compound interest bearing account that pays out daily interest would they make money? How about with the rebates and tax credits?
How about in a bond that has no taxes on it? People do not know they can save.
Lenders and all above can they save a months payment with a new loan. Can they put energy efficient loans above the other loan amounts for solar or others? or in another word can they increase the maximum loan amount by an amount for energy savings improvements? PUrchases loan amounts? How about equity loans?
Then if they put this money into savings or investments would they make money and retirement accounts too? IRA? Tell them please the public has no idea. Even in California where the sun shines year round.
Which banks have lenders and investment bankers that could explain this in their language? or that are intelligent enough and educated enough to understand this themselves?
Dear Friends:
Why put solar on your home? Hey that could save you money! Who wants a vacation or investments? Pay through the nose! Who wants to be energy concious? Certainly not California with the sun! Certainly not Northern California with the sun?
Spend! Spend! Spend! On your Utility bill! The more the merrier! Your Utility company likes that.
Solar Energy! Tex Coat paint! Siding! Insulation! Doors! New Roof! Patio Covers!
What for! Asians do not like to be energy concious or green. Latinos do not! Caucasians too few of those left in California to care! African Americans oh no not us! Arabs no not us! Hebrew not us! Take your money put it in a stack and mark it for the Utility company. All in single dollars or pennies! Who cares! Who cares! Go bankrupt is number 1 !
Give it to the Mormons! They like that! Romney is a fool he wants it too!
Save please do not! clowns in the Circus give it to them! Live in a nasty old broken down dump with the air flowing out the walls , doors and roof! Fill it up!
