Costa-Gavras – Z [+Extras] (1969)
A pulse-pounding political thriller, Greek expatriate director Costa-Gavras's Z was one of the cinematic sensations of the late sixties, and remains among the most vital dispatches from that hallowed era of filmmaking. This Academy Award winner—loosely based on the 1963 assassination of Greek left-wing activist Gregoris Lambrakis—stars Yves Montand as a prominent politician and doctor whose public murder amid a violent demonstration is covered up by military and government officials; Jean-Louis Trintignant is the tenacious magistrate who's determined not to let them get away with it. Featuring kinetic, rhythmic editing, Raoul Coutard's expressive vérité photography, and Mikis Theodorakis's unforgettable, propulsive score, Z is a technically audacious and emotionally gripping masterpiece.

Spicy Cheese Cocktail Biscuits
For best results, don't use preshredded Cheddar cheese—instead, grate your own. To give the biscuits a spicier flavor, use the larger amount of ground red pepper. Serve a sparkling white wine, such as Domaine Ste. Michelle Cuvée Brut, Washington (about $12), with these cheese straw-like appetizers.
Yield: Makes about 28 biscuits

She (the girl) was pretty but not gorgeous and smart and that she could be attracted to me was more than I could hope. Three times a week she would drive me home from school and we would park and talk. I still remember the shape of the dash and the bench seats and the green color scheme. She's gone, the car is gone, but the memory remains.

Life in tiny Winslow Falls, New Hampshire is pretty darn good until an arsonist decides to ruin everyone's Christmas.
The way volunteer fire chief Gwen Fifield sees it, her life in rural New Hampshire is as good as it can be. Sure, she's gained twenty pounds and her property taxes have skyrocketed, but her basement didn't flood this year and the general store started delivering pizza.
All things considered, Gwen's got no complaints….that is until she finds a body sizzled like a sausage in the smoldering remains of the Winslow Falls museum.
When an artifact from the museum is traced to an immigrant family, most local residents are quick to blame the outsiders. But clues from the past convince Gwen that the town she's always trusted is harboring a home-grown murderer.

"new" Ometepe road
Lovely Island
I went to Ometepe last December and the road is really nice, everybody can go from Moyogalpa to Altagracia without any problem and in the way go to several nice places like El ojo de agua, some hotels, etc. That was my first time in Ometepe and this is a lovely place, I saw several foreign people enjoying the peace full Ometepe; the weather is really nice I highly recommended to rest.-
adoquinando two peaks
hopefully they will be "adoquin", like the one above. it's more adequate in terms of material and maintenance. - ometepe is a gateway to the underworld, where time and space have no boundaries.

myrth is an example. that one governor who was found to be a cocksucker was a myrth too!
by Philopolis May 08, 2005
an extreme form of flatulence recorded by voice notes on a cell phone or any other digital recording device and published to an audience, usually via text message. Myrth is generally produced by one's relatives or friends and is mainly a morning ritual but, sometimes is published in the evening. If, while producing myrth, the producers unit expels anything other than pure gas it shall not be classified as myrth but, instead, a shart. To be considered myrth the production must last longer than 15 seconds.
Every morning when I wake up I rush to my cell phone to listen to my Uncle's latest production of myrth. This morning was better than usual because it was at least 30 seconds of solid sound and covered many octaves.

Latin America falls short in saving commodity boom windfall -IMF
MEXICO CITY, May 6 (Reuters) - Latin American commodity exporters have largely failed to take full advantage of surging raw material prices to boost savings and a recent deterioration in external accounts bears watching, the International Monetary Fund said on Monday.
In its latest regional economic outlook, the IMF said high export prices for oil, metals and agricultural products since 2002 had led to a terms of trade windfall equal to 30 percent of income a year for Venezuela and 20 percent for Bolivia and Chile, or close to 15 percent on average for the region.
But countries had saved proportionally less of the extra income than in past booms and less of that had been used to strengthen external accounts by boosting investment abroad.
Current account deficits rose last year to an average of 2.8 percent of gross domestic product (GDP) in Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Peru and Uruguay, from 2 percent of GDP in 2011, as strong domestic demand for imported goods outpaced output growth.
Income from foreign investment is a credit in the current account, a component of a country's balance of payments, the broadest measure of its transactions with the world.
"In previous episodes, foreign savings appear to have delivered higher post-boom income than domestic savings," the IMF said in the report.
"Hence, the current weakening of external current account balances in Latin America - even if driven by higher domestic investment - warrants a close monitoring."
The current account encompasses trade in goods and services and other cross-border money flows including interest payments, profit remittances, workers' remittances and dividends. The other major balance of payments component is the capital account, which includes foreign direct investment.
Past economic crises in Latin America have been associated with boom and bust cycles accompanied by large current account deficits, making countries dependent on inflows of foreign capital and vulnerable to collapse when flows reversed.
Still, deficits in the current account are short of levels reached in the lead-up to past crises and so far there is no sign that investors, attracted by the region's comparatively high interest rates, are losing interest.
According to IMF forecasts, Brazil's current account deficit is expected to reach 3.2 pct of GDP in 2014, from 2.3 pct in 2012 and Chile is seen widening to 3.6 percent from 3.5 percent.
Deficits in Peru, Uruguay and Colombia are seen easing over the next 18 months but still high at 3.4 percent in 2014 for Peru, 2.5 percent in Uruguay and 2.9 percent in Colombia.
The IMF said flexible exchange rates could help mitigate the impact of foreign capital reverses, noting that the share of foreign ownership in local currency debt had doubled from an average of about 12 percent in early 2008 to more than 25 percent by the end of 2012.
In the six months following the collapse of Lehman Brothers in September 2008, countries with more flexible exchange rates had experienced fewer foreign outflows than countries which tried to keep exchange rates stable.
"Overall, the evidence suggests that exchange rate flexibility reduces the vulnerability to sudden changes in foreign investors of domestic debt," the IMF said.
Countries including Brazil, Colombia and Peru are taking steps to prevent their currencies appreciating too much as a result of capital inflows.
The report also found deleveraging by European banks as a result of the ongoing economic crisis had only a modest impact on Latin America, although subsidiaries of Spanish banks had been more cautious in lending than domestic banks. (Reporting by Krista Hughes, Editing by W Simon)

Low Prices Could Send This Stock Higher
Ben is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Five Below (NASDAQ: FIVE) is a specialty retailer that targets teens and sells products for under $5, hence the name. In the United States, there are roughly 25.6 million teens, and most of them have the same problem: not a lot of money. Five Below offers an assortment of trendy items such as makeup, beach and party supplies, and iPhone covers. But being trendy isn't the only important part of this company.
Growing up
Five Below recently posted a 33% increase in sales, to $95.6 million from $71.8 million, which beat the analyst prediction of 94.23%. The company also saw same-store sales increase 4.2%, its 28th consecutive quarter of growth in this area. This increase in sales was hindered slightly by the unseasonably cold weather this year, which slowed spring and summer seasonal item sales.
The company opened 14 new stores during the quarter, bringing the total number of stores to 258. Five Below expects to open 14 more during the next quarter, and 60 total for 2013. This growth will be supported by investing in infrastructure such as its new distribution center in Olive Branch, Mississippi. On a downside, the new distribution center was responsible for deleverage-of-distribution expenses that caused a 40-basis-point drop in gross margin to 31.6%.
New Leaders
Building a strong product development and sourcing team is important for Five Below, and the company recently hired Michael Panella, Julia Benhour, and Sharon Cardinal to help this endeavor.
Panella has been hired as Senior Vice President, leading the product development and sourcing team. He spent the last 13 years as President of JM Manufacturing, a company based out of Hong Kong that specializes in product development and sourcing for national retailers.
Benhour, who has worked for Avon Products and Victoria's Secret, is director for product development, and will support Panella to help strengthen product development and sourcing. Cardinal is a divisional merchandise manager who will work to grow the fashion accessory, groom apparel, and beauty categories. Her previous employment at Eddie Bauer and Bath & Body Works makes her a good choice for this position.
These new hires will help Five Below keep new, trendy products on its shelves that will keep customers coming back.
Five Below's competition comes from other teen focused specialty retailers such as Wet Seal (NASDAQ: WTSL), Claire's, and Forever 21, only one of which is publically owned.
The Wet Seal operates 526 stores that sell fashionable and contemporary apparel and accessory items for girls. The company has had sales trouble recently with same store sales declining 2.9% last quarter and 7.7% a year earlier. Revenue fell 5.1% to $140.4 million which yielded an earnings per share of $0.01.
Wet Seal has a competitively high gross margin of 43%, compared to Five Below's 31.6%. This is due to the difference in pricing between the companies. Wet Seal's products aren't expensive, but they are more than $5.
Five Below's advantage is its highly advertised low prices that will draw teens to stores and with less than half the amount of locations as Wet Seal, it has more room to grow.
Because of its high growth potential and commitment to producing trendy, affordable products, I think Five Below is a buy. The company only went public last year and is still investing in the business so there won't be big dividends any time soon. But with a growth rate of 31%, I expect this company to give impressive returns as it expands.

Research on Wood Could Boost Biofuels
Researchers in the Warnell School of Forestry and Natural Resources received a $1.34 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy to attempt to increase the productivity of trees by genetically modifying certain proteins critical to wood formation. The study could have important implications in using trees as biofuel. Warnell faculty members Scott Harding and Chung-Jui Tsai hope that tweaking the proteins will modify the way trees divide their photosynthate (sucrose and other sugars) between wood-forming and other organs like roots and bark. Wood is the raw feedstock for biofuels, and the research is being funded to learn about the potential of this gene for affecting wood growth, and thus tree growth, under a variety of environmental conditions.

PISCATAWAY, N.J. (Jan. 13, 2014) – Following its opening meet, Rutgers gymnastics is ranked No. 16 in the nation as a team, posting a 195.075 last Saturday in a conference win over New Hampshire. That score also ranks first amongst teams in the East Atlantic Gymnastics League (EAGL).
"The goal we have been talking about all offseason is starting out strong right off the bat, and that's what that score is," head coach Louis Levine said. "It is great to be ranked, which is a big step for the program, but also a small step in that it is a long season. It is about where you end the season, not where you are right now. Overall, though, it is a nice thing for our program and gets everyone excited."
In addition, the Scarlet Knights are also in the top 25 in three events, being 14th on balance beam (48.725), tied for 14th on floor exercise (48.950) and tied for 24th on vault (48.800). Redshirt junior Luisa Leal (Cali, Colombia) is tied for ninth out of 428 gymnasts nationally on floor exercise and tied for 16th all-around.
The 195.075 team score posted by RU was the highest by the program in an opening meet and fifth-best overall. Five of the top seven team marks in school history have been set since Feb. 2, 2013.
Click here to view full rankings.
Rutgers will next travel to take on No. 21 Kent State in a quad meet Friday before facing No. 19 Ohio State head-to-head Sunday. The next meet at the Livingston Recreation Center will be Friday, Jan. 24 at 6:30 p.m. against Brown.

import random for i in range(5): x=random.randrange (0,101, 1) l=list(x) printNow(x)
im not sure if that was even in the right direction i was suppose to do
In Topic: python gives 2 different numbers instead of just 1

I am currently serving my fourth year as township trustee. During my four years of service, I have established excellent communication and relationship with the Sheriff's office, which I will continue to build and grow. As a township trustee I have attended numerous meetings regarding township business and have gained a thorough knowledge and understanding of the processes, rules and regulations that govern our township. I have, and will, continue to work diligently to ensure the concerns and issues of the residents are heard in a timely manner. I will continue to be the voice of the people and will work to keep a balanced budget and accountability within the township. I will work with all departments; administration, fiscal officer, zoning, road, fire, senior center, ensuring that the taxpayers dollars continue to be spent wisely. As a retired public servant, if elected I will continue to be available to the residents in a full-time capacity and will work to ensure that the township residents continue to receive the high level of public services that they deserve.
1) Water and Sewer Rates: Continue to pursue all avenues with water suppliers to ensure residents are getting the best available rates. 2) State Budget Cuts: To address state budge cuts, I will contact state representatives to address the issue of the state budget cuts that have affected township revenues. 3) Recreation Center: I will continue the work toward the building of a Prairie Township Recreation Center the residents can be proud of, ensuring that all deadlines are met and project costs are within budget. 4) Keeping a Balanced Budget: I will diligently watch over the taxpayers dollars, ensuring they are spent wisely. 5) Attract New Residents and Business': Project the township as a place you want to do business, live, raise a family, and be a part of a community you are proud of. This can be accomplished through road improvements (i.e. West Broad Street) and overall township improvements and services. 6)Township Website: Improve the township website to ensure that it is user friendly and provides accurate and up-to-date information that is relevant to our residents, including community events, registration for classes once the community center is open, community links, economic development information, township regulations, applications for various permits, etc.
If elected, I will continue the momentum of making our community one that we can continue to be proud of, keeping in mind the needs of our residents and efficiently utilizing resources available. In the last four years as trustee, I have been involved with many projects to improve the township including: 1) Increasing the Sheriff patrols within the township from 19 patrols per week to 35 per week 2) Updated various parks with equipment, paths and shelters 3) Electric aggregation 4) Rebuild South Grener Avenue (including partial reroute) 5) Demolished Hometown Inn (where the new McDonalds is at Grener and Broad) 6) Reestablished the leaf pickup program 7) Established tree limb pickup/chipper program 8) Established JEDD and JEDZ 9) Received AA rating from the Standard and Poors bond sale 10) Prepared plans and purchased land for the community recreation center 11) Completed plans for the 2014 West Broad Streetscape Project 12) Worked with Garden heights neighborhood and ODOT to receive approval for the Garden Heights sound wall along I-270 (to start in 2014) 13) Galloway Road park land was purchased 14) Purchase of a new fire truck, rescue tools, and new heart monitors 15) Updated fire stations 16) Maintained public service levels in the face of deep state funding cuts 17) Established traffic calming policy and purchased a speed trailer.

I have experience and broad knowledge of all issues facing the Township. The Township voters have supported me in the last two elections and with almost 8 years in this office, I believe my knowledge of the issues involving the Township is extensive. I am anxious to use my experience to continue serving all of the residents. Some important issues in the Township are: legal use of Township funds and other resources; construction and completion of our Community Center; fair and proper handling of real estate nuisance cases, fair treatment of Township employees, continued support of infrastructure improvements, proper maintenance of Township assets, and many others.
Major issues I would face are overseeing construction and completion of our new Community Center and the upcoming West Broad Streetscape project. I will accomplish this by having timely discussions with contractors and responsible Township supervision which is very important. It will also be important to continue to work with the JEDZ Board to oversee of our Township "Joint Economic Development Zone", by meeting regularly with those responsible for tax collections and timely remittance to the Township, and assuring that funds collected are used for appropriate Township purposes and improvements. We also need to continue making road improvements. I would use my knowledge and experience in obtaining financial grants to assist the Township in moving forward in this important area. Financial responsibility in the use of all Township funds is always an issue. I will assure that Prairie Township remains in a strong financial position by continuing to apply common sense leadership.
I believe I have represented our residents fairly and competently during my almost 8 years as a Trustee. Prairie Township survived the economic downturn and we are in excellent financial health. I will continue to work diligently for all residents by providing leadership and by being available to talk to or meet with any resident to discuss Township issues that may be of concern to them. Your vote is very important and I hope I have provided appropriate leadership in areas of importance to you during my term in office. I would appreciate your continued support.

What Attracted You to Engineering
View Single Post
Dec28-12, 12:18 PM
I grew up in a town of engineers who fixed their own cars and televisions. My dad, FWIW, was not one of them.
One particular EE impressed me so much I decided to make it my field of study. That was until I started taking specific classes in the curriculum, and found it all too abstract.
Talking with him later, he smiled & told me all the useful stuff he knew he had taught himself.
I ended up graduating with a BSME, and went to work as a System Engineer.
My title is now "Test Engineer" with a focus on developing control system software. I enjoy what I do.
In the meantime, I still fix cars, tinker with electronics, and have restored a vintage Airstream.
Your life/job is what you make out of it. Be aware that your job duties may not necessarily correspond with your degree.

Over the past three months, retail sales excluding autos has risen at an annualized growth rate of 6.2 percent, slightly below its 12-month percent change of 7.8 percent. Across broad categories, sales were mostly to the upside, with 10 out of 13 posting increases in September. Sales at clothing and clothing accessory stores (up 1.3 percent); gas stations (up 1.2 percent); and food services and drinking places (up 1.2 percent) were the largest gainers in September. There were some slight sales decreases at food and beverage stores (down 0.2 percent); sporting goods, hobby, book and music stores (down 0.3 percent); and building material, garden equipment, and supplies dealers (down 0.1 percent). "Core" retail sales (sales excluding autos, building supplies, and gas stations)—a less noisy indicator of the trend in consumption growth—increased 0.6 percent in September, following an upwardly revised 0.4 percent (from a flat reading) gain in August. The 3-month annualized growth rate in core retail sales rose to 5.6 percent in September, well above its growth rate of 3.4 percent over the three months prior, and is just shy of its 12-month trend of 6.0 percent.

No, never.
I never want to talk to my children like that. No, never. I never want to make them feel like they are not enough, that they cannot be enough. I never want them to run up and down the spectrum of childhood, trying to find that one place where I'm happy. I never want them to dread talking to me, coming home to me, being with me. No, never. I want them to know that with me, in our home, they are loved and cherished. I want them to know that they are smart and capable and a good person. I want to treat them like this, so that they act like this, and do not tolerate when the world tells them otherwise. I want them to know that I, their mother, will always love them and think of them as smart and capable and good, no matter what they do. I do not want them to confuse their mistakes with who they are. No, never.

Putting on the uniform doesn't make you a good person.
Being a veteran doesn't make you a decent human being.
It means you were part of something great, and brave, and honorable- but did you help or hinder?
Being a good person AND wearing the uniform means you deserve double respect.
Being a sad excuse for a human in a beautiful uniform makes you a hazzard to the team.

First, there's the layout. Each rectangular floor is built around an atrium separating shoppers on one side from the stores on the other side. The placement of escalators forces you to walk around the perimeter of the entire floor. And you have to walk to a separate bank of escalators to reach the parking garage.
From Route 287, which runs parallel to Palisades, you can see multiple store names on the undistinguished buildings. The problem is, a sign's placement often has nothing to do with the store's actual location. For example, you could walk into a door with a sign for one retailer, expecting to find it there. In reality, it could be located clear across the mall. The Home Depot and B.J.'s aren't even accessible from the the shopping center.
Why would a retailer want to open a store at Palisades? I asked Aéropostale senior vice president of marketing Scott Birnbaum this recently. Aéropostale last month unveiled P.S. Aero, a new retail concept geared to seven- to 12-year-olds, at Palisades. "It's a strange mall," I said, to break the ice. "Tell me about it," Birnbaum agreed.
Yet despite the mall's idiosyncrasies, which include a 150-year-old cemetary for African American veterans next to the Barnes & Noble parking deck, Palisades Center has something retailers cannot ignore: lots and lots of foot traffic. It's sometimes impossible on weekends to see a movie at the AMC Loews Palisades Center theater, despite its 21 screens, because they are all sold out.
The economy has changed much about the mall, which bowed amid controversy in 1998. When the shopping center first opened, it used to be nigh impossible to get a table at one of the restaurants on the fourth floor. Macaroni Grill and Legal Seafood handed out beepers, but a person could devour all 10 of their fingernails before hearing their name called. Both eateries are no longer at Palisades, and the fourth floor now has a certain Al Bundy-meets-frat boy quality with Buffalo Wild Wings, Harvard Square import Fire + Ice, Dave & Busters, TGI Friday's and Lucky Strike Lanes.
P.S. Aero came to Palisades with its eyes wide open. Older sibling Aéropostale has a store on the second floor. As Birnbam said, the mall is all about choosing the right location. P.S. Aero's 3,500-square-foot store on the third level is in like company with the Disney Store, Children's Place, Gymboree, GapKids and BabyGap.
"I couldn't say 'no,'" Birnbaum said of the location. Another attraction: the fact the P.S. Aero space is within spitting distance of the food court.
Palisades has done a good job of clustering like-minded retailers together. Fashion brands are mainly found on the first floor, the only area in the mall with carpeting and decent common area furniture. There's Lord & Taylor and Macy's, along with A|X Armani Exchange, Banana Republic, BCBGMax Azria, Brooks Brothers, H&M, Gilly Hicks, Esprit, United Colors of Benneton, White House|Black Market and Victoria's Secret.
Palisades can sometimes seem like two different malls. Customers of the fashion brands may never venture beyond the first floor and fiery chicken wing eaters may keep to themselves on the fourth level. That's OK with Birnbaum as long as the children's and teen's apparel selection remains strong.

"I am born in the year of the rabbit and loved the whimsical bunny designed on this label. It has simple lines and almost cartoonish in appearance. Love it."
"We were so excited to see these and were more than pleased when we got them. They are perfect for our family since we are all natives to city by the bay. Thank you Tiny Prints for representing our wonderful corner of the world!"
"The colors came out vibrant! The stickers are excellent quality, and all of our friends and family loved them!! Would definitely recommend!!"
"My husband and I travel constantly, so this label fitted our lifestyle. The only thing I was not thrilled about was the small swirl the plane leaves in the air. In the label, the picture is light, and this swirl is hard to see, and therefore looks like a marking or a printing mistake. I would either enhance the color to make it stand out more or remove it altogether. Other than that, I am very happy with the labels."
"Easy to customize label. I used mine as a book plate. As described, the colors are vibrant. The "review/edit" process was quick. The delivery was also quick- just a few days. I even ordered more labels & had the new order even faster. This was an inexpensive way to get the exact book plate I needed. I will definitely order through Tiny Prints again and will recommend it to my friends. Glad I found this website."

Several control schemes for monitoring process mean shifts, including cumulative sum (CUSUM), weighted cumulative sum (WCUSUM), adaptive cumulative sum (ACUSUM) and exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) control schemes, display high performance in detecting constant process mean shifts. However, a variety of dynamic mean shifts frequently occur and few control schemes can efficiently work in these situations due to the limited window for catching shifts, particularly when the mean decreases rapidly. This is precisely the case when one uses the residuals from autocorrelated data to monitor the process mean, a feature often referred to as forecast recovery. This thesis focuses on detecting a shift in the mean of a time series when a forecast recovery dynamic pattern in the mean of the residuals is observed. Specifically, we examine in detail several particular cases of the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) time series models. We introduce a new upper-sided control chart based on the Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) scheme combined with the Fast Initial Response (FIR) feature. To assess chart performance we use the well-established Average
Run Length (ARL) criterion. A non-homogeneous Markov chain method is developed for ARL calculation for the proposed chart. We show numerically that the proposed procedure performs as well or better than the Weighted Cumulative Sum (WCUSUM) chart introduced by Shu, Jiang and Tsui (2008), and better than the conventional CUSUM, the ACUSUM and the Generalized Likelihood Ratio Test (GLRT) charts. The methods are illustrated on molecular weight data from a polymer manufacturing process.

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) – Lubbock Police have identified the pedestrian killed Friday afternoon at the South Loop and Quaker. Police identified the victim as 70-year-old Liuhua Zhou.
There was early speculation that Zhou was homeless, but that is not true. She was identified when a family member in New York called Lubbock Police to file a missing persons report after Zhou did not arrive to meet her grandchildren after school.
Police say the victim did not use a crosswalk when trying to cross Quaker on foot. The driver, 28-year-old Benjamin Rodriguez, was stopped at the red light at Quaker going north. Police say when the light turned green he hit the woman and traveled some distance before was able to stop.
"I believe there was a head injury, and again, they were considered quite severe. I know some pedestrians immediately began to try to provide aid, and EMS transported her immediately, but unfortunately she was pronounced dead at the hospital," says Captain Greg Stevens with the Lubbock Police Department.
Police say while the accident is still under investigation and it does not look like there will be any charges filed at this time.
This is the 19th fatal accident in Lubbock this year with 20 deaths. Zhou is the seventh pedestrian killed by a car.

It was hard to decide what rating to give this recipe. The salmon turned out absolutely delicious and perfectly seasoned. I found the quinoa to be bland and a little too sweet for my tastes. I would definitely do the salmon again, but would find another side.

Gosnell abortion trial repulsing even veteran journalistsApril 15, 2013 No Comments

Gosnell abortion trial repulsing even veteran journalists
By Catholic Online
PHILADELPHIA, PA (Catholic Online) – The Philadelphia District Attorney has described the abortion mill of Kermit Gosnell as "a house of horrors." Gosnell came to public attention when a woman he clinically mutilated died following a botched painkiller injection.
The resulting investigation uncovered a gruesome scene that was decades in the making.
Gosnell began performing abortions in the 1970s. He made his living murdering babies, particularly those born to minority and poor women in West Philadelphia.
According to testimony offered by witnesses, Gosnell hired poorly-paid, untrained women to assist in his clinic. Gosnell often tasked these assistants with murdering babies that were born alive. In at least one case, a child was murdered over a toilet with scissors. The assistant claimed she had no idea she was doing something wrong.
In another case, Gosnell joked that the baby he was murdering was large enough to walk himself to the bus stop.
According to the grand jury, "This case is about a doctor who killed babies and endangered women. What we mean is that he regularly and illegally delivered live, viable babies in the third trimester of pregnancy – and then murdered these newborns. … The medical practice by which he carried out this business was a filthy fraud in which he overdosed his patients with dangerous drugs, spread venereal disease among them with infected instruments, perforated their wombs and bowels – and, on at least two occasions, caused their deaths."
Read the Original Grand Jury report here. [WARING: GRAPHIC CONTENT]
The details of the testimony are so gruesome that even experienced reporters are reeling from the case.
The Philadelphia Inquirer's Joseph Slobodzian, who has sat through every day of the trial, was quoted by CNN as saying, "I certainly don't hope I cover a trial like this again."
Even veteran staff at Catholic Online dread reading the updates and transcripts from the trial, which is extraordinarily repulsive.
Perhaps the most haunting line of testimony came from a National Abortion Federation official who visited the clinic. She told the court "It was the worst clinic I have ever seen." Still, she did not report the operation to the authorities.
Note her use of the word, "worst." What's haunting is her word choice implies there are similar mills of horror around the nation, just none so bad as Gosnell's, whatever that is worth.
Other women testify that Gosnell lied, telling them it was safe to get repeated abortions. Some women had over half-a-dozen abortions performed by Gosnell, using his services as a form of birth control.
If Gosnell is convicted, it is hoped he will receive a strong sentence from the court to dissuade others from following similar practices. More importantly, it is hoped his conviction might inspire life-saving legislation that will protect both mothers and their precious children from the seductive lies told by the purveyors of death, who are neither friends of women, nor human rights.

eDiets was the pioneer of online subscription-based weight loss companies, offering a variety of inexpensive diet plans. A subscription or membership to eDiets includes daily menu plans, a 3-D virtual personal trainer for a wide range of exercises, over 100 online support groups and message boards, and personalized support from trained counselors and nutritionists. Also included is 24/7 access to eDiets website and its wealth of information regarding nutrition and recipes, exercise options, personal motivation and general lifestyle change.
eDiets originated as a low-fat weight loss program based on the the recommendations of the American Dietetic Association and the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Guide Pyramid, but it has expanded to include alternative nutrition plans that included:
eDiets also added its own meal delivery service which has gone through a series of name changes, including:
An eDiets membership costs $18.95 for 4 weeks, which at one point in the not too distanct past made them the least expensive comprehensive weight loss program, but those days are long gone with the rapid evolution of free online programs and smarthphone Apps (iPhone/Android). All of these new options do more-or-less the same as eDiets -digital tracking of calories, nutrition plans, fitness plans, online communities, downloadable exercise plans and activities- etc... In the end, the classic eDiets online program is simply a marketing doorway to their much more expensive meal delivery service. I don't understand why they don't just give the online program away in the first place to draw potential customers in.

thanks for the feedback XianXiuHong, this is is the first thing I have composed for piano. I just wanted to do something for piano and I make this in a couple hours, also I have never played piano, I just don't knew how to come with this, and I know almost nothing about composition, so I would appreciate if you could expand your comment, I'm not sure what you mean by classical harmonic progression or lack of dynamics, and tell me with detail where you can hear the notes don't match the key(as I remember all notes from left hand come from A major chord, I thought that I couldn't go wrong with that, but as I have said I know almost nothing about composition) I want to make new piano compositions and I want to improve, so it would be really cool if you could expand your comment about what you think I made wrong, and maybe also give some advices on how I can fix it.
I didn't really find a sense of phrasing in this and lack of dynamics really ruined this for me. Your left hand notes also don't seem to match the key of the right hand notes alot of the time. I didn't get a sense of classical harmonic progression for the most part. Some great ideas in the right hand but there's much to be improved on.

Just hours after reality TV star Kim Kardashian gushed about her impressions of Bahrain, riot police fired tear gas to disperse more than 50 hardline Islamic protesters denouncing her presence in the Gulf kingdom.
The clashes took place just before Kardashian opened the Bahrain branch of her Millions of Milkshakes shop.
An Associated Press journalist saw protesters chanting "God is Great" near the shopping complex in Riffa, about 20 kilometers (12 miles) south of the capital Manama. The demonstrators were cleared before Kardashian appeared late Saturday.
Earlier, she posted glowing remarks about Bahrain on her Twitter account, calling it "the prettiest place on earth." It was re-Tweeted by Bahrain's foreign minister.
Kardashian was in Kuwait earlier this week to open another branch of the shop.
