Did the Housing Crisis Help Prop 8 Pass?2/18/10 at 7:00 PMThe great recession may be to blame for stirring up the culture wars: according to a study in the winter issue of the American Sociological Review, resistance to gay marriage deepens significantly during hard times. In conservative parts of the 30 states that have blocked same-sex unions (where ballot measures tend to be won or lost), researchers found that each 10 percent drop in homeownership led to a 5 percent increase in support for a ban. Other signs of a community in trouble—including spikes in the crime rate and the percentage of people moving—also tracked with heightened opposition. When people think their neighborhood is breaking down, says Notre Dame professor Rory McVeigh, a coauthor of the study, "they think gay marriage is only going to make things worse."That's bad news for gay-advocacy groups, as much of the country remains racked by the housing crisis. In California, where foreclosure rates are among the highest in the nation, it could help explain how Proposition 8...

Texas Panel Studies Wrongful Convictions2/10/10 at 7:00 PMSince the late 1990s, DNA evidence has cleared hundreds of people mistakenly put behind bars. In doing so, it's tarnished that staple of crime solving: the police lineup. Almost 80 percent of the wrongly accused were first fingered by an alleged eyewitness (who zeroed in on them in a traditional photo, or in-person, "six-pack"). For years the push to improve the system has stalled, with just nine states enforcing tightened procedures. These include requiring police to show pictures or suspects one at a time, and having an officer without knowledge of the case administer the lineup—processes that psychologists say are more reliable. Meanwhile, at least 17 other states and some major cities have resisted these changes, partly because a 2006 Chicago Police Department study found the new system to be worse than the old one, and partly because the Supreme Court has upheld entrenched lineup methodology.But reform could soon come from the unlikeliest of places: Texas. This fall a special...
Kentucky: Home to the Next Yucca Mountain?2/10/10 at 7:00 PMPresident Obama has called for a new generation of nuclear-power plants. But when he abandoned plans to store the nation's nuclear waste in Nevada's Yucca Mountain, he effectively forced states eager to break ground on reactors to accept the idea of keeping that waste within their borders—not a popular idea since the Three Mile Island meltdown. But could Kentucky become home to an alternative? Its state Senate recently approved a bill that would OK nuclear-waste storage. And Kerri Richardson, a spokeswoman for Gov. Steve Beshear, says storing other states' waste "would certainly attract a lot of interest from our administration."For a coal-rich area without an existing plant, Kentucky's openness is a sign, say energy analysts, that anxiety about waste storage is waning. It's "a tipping point," says Vanderbilt professor Charles Powers, an expert on nuclear-waste solutions. Still, don't expect resistance to end overnight: Kentucky's bill could die in the House, as did two previous...
A Coming Medical Marijuana Battle in Colorado?2/10/10 at 7:00 PMWith more medical-marijuana dispensaries than Starbucks outlets, Denver has emerged as the per capita frontrunner for curative ganja. As more residents partake of doctor-prescribed pot, however, questions are emerging about where the line is between an employee's right to use medical marijuana and an employer's right to a drug-free office.Employers, of course, don't need to accommodate a worker who shows up stoned. But can someone who legally tokes on his own time, and whose performance isn't hurt, be fired for failing a drug test? "We're in uncharted territory," says Vance Knapp, a Denver employment lawyer who expects the issue to be tested in the courts soon.So far, judges in California, Washington, Montana, and Oregon have sided with employers. But because Colorado's medical-marijuana laws are in its constitution, not just statutes, legal experts give the edge in any test case to employees. That could mean a breakthrough victory for users, swinging momentum their way and giving...

The Best Thing for a Baby's Colic: Treating the Parent's Nerves11/25/09 at 2:32 PMToday we have a guest post from colleague Tony Dokoupil.We had known each other just a few weeks when the fights began. They were ugly affairs, full of kicks and screams that raged all day and night. Hours turned into days, then weeks, then months – and still the drama continued. "Things will get better," people said. But that was hard to believe right there in the center ring. We needed help. And that's when the real confusion set in.Nearly one in five babies – like my own – display the prolonged shrieks that characterize colic. But nobody knows what causes it – one leading medical dictionary defines it as "benign pain," a devious concept – and researchers shrug off as a natural stage of development shared by baby chimps, gulls and even beetle larvae. None of which offers much succor for newly-minted, sleep-deprived parents. "I distinctly remember standing on a balcony with Quinn squawking in my arms and wondering what I would do if it wasn't against the law to hurl her off it,"...

In Defense of Permissive Parenting: Why Talking Back May Lead to Smarter Kids10/21/09 at 12:20 PMInside a convenience store, Xenia is battling her 4-year-old son, Paulino, over buying a soft drink. She wants him to try a small size, he wants a larger one. "That one does not work," she says, referring to the rack of big cups. "These [smaller] ones do."Xenia eventually won the battle over beverages, but she may have lost the parenting war, according to a pair of new studies, highlighting how small differences in communication style can have a large impact on kids. And in many cases, it's minority families like this one (Xenia and Paulino are Mexican-American) that suffer the most. Moms, dads, or caregivers who mainly talk to their offspring using commands, like Xenia, who was cited in the study, rather than reasoning may get their kids to do what they want, but they also fail to develop their children's minds, the research out of the University of California, Berkeley, and UCLA suggests.The findings have particular significance for minority communities...

Q&A: Author Alain de Botton Gave His Last Reading at ... Heathrow!?9/30/09 at 12:00 PMOver the last decade, British author Alain de Botton has built an empire out of his cotton-candy approach to big ideas. In a fistful of hits—including Status Anxiety, The Architecture of Happiness, and The Consolations of Philosophy—as well as numerous BBC and PBS documentaries, he's offered a clever look at Western civilization, all from the mercilessly pragmatic perspective of what helps people live more fulfilling lives. But while his style has certainly sold books—more than 5 million worldwide—it has also drawn gob-smacking levels of professional scorn. The New York Times's Jim Holt called his work "piffle dressed up in pompous language," feminist critic Naomi Wolf wrote that "40 pages into his newest offering I was ready to hurl it across the room," and Guardian columnist Charlie Brooker described de Botton as "an absolute pair-of-aching-balls of a man—a slapheaded, ruby-lipped pop philosopher who's forged a lucrative career stating the bleeding obvious in a series of...

Wine Drinkers' Carbon Footprint8/14/09 at 8:00 PMAt least they are if you live in the Big Apple. A New Yorker leaves a smaller carbon footprint drinking a French Bordeaux shipped across the Atlantic (2.93 pounds of carbon per bottle) than drinking a Napa merlot (7.05 pounds). That's because when it comes to calculating carbon costs, the method of transportation matters as much as the distance. Shipping freight by sea generates less than half the emissions associated with airplanes and tractor-trailers.
Older Brains Hatch New Ideas8/14/09 at 8:00 PMEarlier generations of scientists didn't have to wade through quite as much preexisting work before making an original contribution. Now innovators are establishing themselves much later in life. Over the last century and a half, the average age of a Nobel Prize winner at the moment of his great breakthrough has risen more than five years, from 34 to almost 39 years old. Run-of-the-mill inventors are also older: the average age for registering first major patents has jumped seven months per decade.

Books: Why Work Sucks5/20/09 at 8:00 PMIf you're lucky enough to have a job—especially a cushy, high-status job—you might feel guilty about how much you hate it. Prosperity perpetuated a little white lie: that work is supposed to make us happy. But the office is a fickle friend, according to British author Alain de Botton, who in The Pleasures and Sorrows of Work spotlights life in 10 alternately routine and rarefied industries, including accounting, rocket science and cookie marketing. His implicit question, "When does a job feel good?" is answered with brutal calm: "Rarely." The tragedy is that we expect anything more.For most of human history, work was seen as penance, punishment or a necessary evil. But with the creation of meritocratic America—an "aristocracy of talent and virtue," as Thomas Jefferson described it—toil was transformed into an expression of identity, a way for people to measure themselves and others. "What do you do?" entered the social lexicon as an unavoidable acid test of relevance, while the...
The Translation Wars, Starring Douglas Hofstadter5/1/09 at 8:00 PMIn the literary world, translators are low in the pecking order. Titans like Milan Kundera and Isaac Bashevis Singer have branded them traitors for betraying the beauty of the original text, so most keep their heads down and hew closely to the source material. In their 2007 version of "War and Peace," translators Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky preserved Tolstoy's use of "wept" seven times in a single scene. But hold on a minute—is such slavish devotion really the right approach?No, says Douglas Hofstadter, Indiana University's Pulitzer Prize–winning cognitive scientist, who moonlights as a translator. In an afterword to his third work, Françoise Sagan's "La Chamade," he issues a cri de coeur, urging his brethren to become "co-progenitors"—Ella Fitzgeralds to the author's Cole Porter, as he puts it— who must take liberties or risk failure. In "La Chamade," he punches up flat dialogue, refines blurry descriptions and injects dozens of ready-made phrases (such as "bit his...

Last month, Dating a Banker Anonymous broke out as the hated, irresistible Website du jour, and it has earned its self-pitying, gold-digging authors some national press, not to mention promises from Hollywood agents of a "Real Housewives"–style media franchise. But hold on a minute—are the DABA girls even for real?Not exactly. DABA cofounder Laney Crowell tells NEWSWEEK that what The New York Times and many other outlets portrayed as a serious Web site is, in fact, a full-blown parody by Crowell and her sidekick Megan Petrus, a Manhattan lawyer. There are no DABA meetings. There is no support group. Crowell and Petrus fill the blog with a liberal mix of their own experiences, anecdotes from girls they...

"Age Of Anxiety": America's Love Of Tranquilizers1/23/09 at 7:00 PMAmerica's all-time favorite pill isn't for birth- control, according to historian Andrea Tone. It's a potent little tranquilizer called Miltown, after the New Jersey hamlet where it was born in 1955. The original "mother's little helper" set off a consumer frenzy that emptied drugstores and launched the era of psychiatric cure-alls. But it also raised a perennial question: do we actually need these drugs, or does Big Pharma push them on us? In "The Age of Anxiety," the McGill University professor pans for answers, and finds the blame lies largely with us. ...

Which is why it should come as no surprise that he released the following statement Tuesday afternoon:
"As a former student-athlete at the University of Maryland and a supporter of the Athletic Department, I would like to congratulate Wallace Loh, Brit Kirwan and Kevin Anderson on reaching this agreement with Jim Delany and the Big Ten Member institutions. The ACC has been a great partner to Maryland throughout the years, however joining the Big Ten now provides new and exciting opportunities for our beloved University. The positive financial impact of this move has been well-documented, however, enhancing the experiences for all of our student-athletes and our campus as a whole is the most important consideration. I look forward to this new chapter for Maryland and I am excited for our future. Go Terps!"
So that's that. There's been much speculation about Plank's role in the decision, and he has denied pushing it one way or the other.
Under Armour spokeswoman Diane Pelkey also says that Plank will not be contributing to help Maryland pay a $50 million buyout fee to the ACC and called reports of such, "completely false."
Plank did disclose plans to sell up to 1.3 million shares of stock in Under Armour, worth about $65 million at current prices, over the next year. But Pelkey said Plank had made plans to liquidate the stock months ago and that the money will be used for tax, estate, and charitable giving.

@Miza. I think you're reading the patch notes wrong. This isn't taking OOC away from Restos. Read carefully: You can no longer proc OOC from helpful spells (aka healing spells) without Malfurion's Gift talented. If we were no longer able to proc them from anything but LB, it would say so. I think all this means is that they don't want you to skip this talent and still get the benefits of OOC, because let's be honest, it procs a lot.
Also, I don't think we'll go back to being Rejuv bots. It's still not nearly as cheap as it used to be, and it's relatively weak. Really, I don't see my playstyle changing that much at max level, but on my levelling druid these changes are absolute blessings. I used to only use Rejuv sparingly due to its huge mana cost, but now I will feel more free to use it, as a HoT focused healer should. And if it turns out that we do just go back to spamming it, they'll up the mana cost again to somewhere in between where it is on Live and where it is on the PTR. Trust Blizzard here.
Also, the change to Nature's Bounty is sexy.

While it has long been recognised that consuming large amounts of alcoholic beverages during a pregnancy can be extremely harmful to the unborn baby, new research is showing that consuming a bit of red wine during pregnancy does certainly not seem to be harmful, and now and again, might even be beneficial.
>>> Click here for visit the complete guide of pregnancy.
It looks like there is a lot of self-contradictory information out there, and it results in pregnant women wondering: is wine secure to drink during their pregnancy?
The Secrets for Red Wine During Pregnancy
|Red Wine During Pregnancy
Needless to say, the children of those who sipped heavily showed the biggest behavioral issues and lapses in cognitive ability.
The thing that was surprising however was that those mother who consumed small amounts of red wine during pregnancy had children who carried out better than those who had abstained altogether.
For the purposes from the study, a small amount, or loose drinking was classified as no greater than two small drinks (4 oz. red wine, or 10 oz. of week beer) on one occasion, and not more than two occasions that occurred per week.
The study found no difference in effects among women who drank these small volumes somewhat regularly, and those who drank once or twice during the course of their pregnancy.
Since this study is actually comparatively new, major policy-making bodies in britain, as well as those in the united states, still recommend drinking no red wine during pregnancy, for safety.
In light of the new details however, one major UK body features suggested that it is quite fine for women to drink lightly through the second and third trimesters, but suggest complete abstinence in the first.
Using this type of information, it seems that women, who wish to drink a small amount of red wine during pregnancy, can do so without worrying about how to make them unborn baby harm.
Since the health benefits of drinking moderate amounts of red wine-colored have been well-documented, some females may not wish to give up altogether during pregnancy. Of course, in case you have any misgivings at all, it is most likely best to abstain altogether.
When unsure, feel free to ask your health practitioner, is wine safe? Chances are, she'll have her own opinion on the matter, and will be happy to reveal her reasons with you. A excellent OB/GYN will stay current about the latest research and will be capable to apply it to your situation.
The Results for Red Wine During Pregnancy.
Much like so many other things, the a few drinking red wine during pregnancy looks like it's resolved with the idea that easing is key. If you have any kind of doubts at all about your chance to limit yourself to two or to a lesser extent small glasses no more than twice a week, you might consider abstaining all.
If that is in any method a problem, do not hesitate to approach your doctor.
Drinking red wine during pregnancy is not necessarily a bad issue, so if you can exercise temperance, you can probably do it within a safe manner.

Perhaps it was because she's trying to squash rumors that she's having a girl, but Kate Middleton recently declared that she would like to have a boy, and Prince William a girl. Whilst visiting the St. Patrick's Day Parade at the Aldershot military base in England, the Duchess was asked if she knew what she was having yet. "Do you know if it's a girl or boy?", Guardsman Lee Wheeler inquired. "Not yet", Kate lied said, then added, "I'd like to have a boy and William would like a girl."(Kate and Wills also haven't chosen a name yet apparently.)
If the Duchess is in fact telling the truth, and she does want a boy and hasn't found out the sex, she may want to change that. If she learns she's having a girl now, she'll have time to prepare herself for the "disappointment".
Do I think Kate and Will will actually be disappointed with their baby? Of course not. They'll love their child regardless. But some people really have their hearts set on a certain sex -- and I think if you're one of those people, it's probably not a bad idea to find out what you're having instead of waiting 'til the big day -- it'll help prepare you both emotionally and physically (the room, clothes, etc.). In my experience, I also found that it was easier to identify with the little being inside when you know the sex. I understand some people just don't want to find out, but for me, getting to call my baby "she" and "her" when she was still in utero felt more personal than calling her "it".
If it's Kate doesn't know the sex of her baby and wants a son, I urge her to find out soon. If it winds up that she is having a daughter, it'll give her a chance to digest the information. And, trust me, once she paints that royal nursery pink, she'll be beyond excited.
Did you find out what you were having?
Image via Matt Cardy/Getty
I never found out what I was having the first time, and was greatly surprised when it was a girl. The second time I found out , I was happy, but I missed the mystery. With the third I didn't find out ,but my husband did. That drove me mad. I say she shouldn't find out, you can always buy gender neutral colors and still have plenty for the child to wear. I also recommend getting two take home outfits.
I personally am not a fan of gender neutral clothes. I was kind of dissapointed when i learned I was having a boy but that went away afte a couple of minutes, literally, i was excited to be a mommy. Now that he's 2 1/2 , I am so in lov e with being a mom to a boy I would love for all of my kids to be boys.

The Stern-Brocot or Farey Tree
There are several versions of this tree. This one, which appears in R. L. Graham, D. E. Knuth and O. Patashnik, Concrete Mathematics. Addison-Wesley, Reading, MA, 1990, p. 117, was drawn by Alexander Bogomolny. For another version see J. C. Lagarias, Number Theory and Dynamical Systems, pp. 35-72 of S. A. Burr, ed., The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Number Theory, Proc. Sympos. Appl. Math., 46 (1992). Amer. Math. Soc.
The nth order Farey series is the set of reduced fractions between 0 and 1 whose denominators are n or less, arranged in increasing order, and corresponds to a subtree of the Stern-Brocot tree.
There are also many associated sequences:

John Brennan's nomination to be CIA director is on the fast track to Senate confirmation after lagging for weeks.
The Senate Intelligence Committee has overwhelmingly approved President Barack Obama's pick to lead the spy agency, clearing the way for the full Senate to confirm Brennan as early as Thursday.
The committee's chairwoman, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, is calling for swift action on Brennan's nomination. If it's approved, Brennan would replace Michael Morell, the CIA's deputy director. Morell has been acting director since David Petraeus resigned in November after acknowledging an affair with his biographer.
The Republican vice chairman of the committee, Sen. Saxby Chambliss, voted against the nomination but said he would not encourage his GOP colleagues to try to hold up Brennan's installation at the CIA.

California has been on the dance card for the GOP candidates lately. Mitt Romney came to the Bay Area recently and . Now it's Ron Paul's turn.
Republican presidential candidate Paul is in the Bay Area today for a fundraiser in San Francisco and a town hall meeting at the University of California at Berkeley this evening.
The Texas congressman was scheduled to attend a sold-out luncheon at the Marriott Union Square at 480 Sutter St. at 11:30 a.m.
Tickets for the lunch were $350 per person and $250 for students and military personnel, according to his campaign.
Later today, Paul will head across the Bay to UC Berkeley, where he will give a speech at a 7 p.m. town hall meeting at Zellerbach Auditorium, which seats about 2,000, university officials said.
The event is free and open to the public.
The campus group Students for Liberty, according to the university, organized Paul's UC Berkeley visit.
The group's founder, 22-year-old Casey Given, a fourth-year rhetoric and philosophy student, said he anticipates that a large turnout may push the event to a yet-to-be-determined outdoor location on campus.
Given described Students for Liberty as a three-year-old student organization that is "dedicated to promoting libertarian ideas."
Paul ran for president as a Libertarian in 1988.
Zellerbach Auditorium is located on campus near Bancroft Way and Telegraph Avenue in Berkeley.

Marinos Mitralexis, the Hercules of the Sky
On October 28th the Italians launched an invasion of Greece through Albania. With a huge army and air force the Italians believed they could easily steamroll across Greece and add it to their empire. However, the Italians did not count on the ferocity and bravery of Greek resistance. The Italian Air Force especially thought it could sweep the skies, devoting 463 aircraft against the Greek's mere 77. Then again, the Italians did not count on the likes of Marinos Mitralexis, who became the most famous Greek fighter pilot of World War II.
On November 2nd, Second Lt. Marinos Mitralexis was the pilot of a PZL P.24 when his unit was scrambled to intercept a flight of 29 Italian bombers headed for Thessaloniki. The two forces met in an aerial firefight in which three Italian bombers were shot down, while almost half of the others were badly damaged. Mitralexis himself personally shot down one bomber and damaged another. Terrified of the ferocious Greek assault, the Italian bombers turned around and retreated back to base. However, Mitralexis wasn't done yet. Lining up his sights on a fleeing bomber, he fired until he ran out of ammo, damaging but not destroying the airplane. Rather than giving up and breaking off the attack, Mitralexis decided to attempt a daring maneuver. Slowly inching up on the bomber, Mitralexis rammed the rear section, using his propeller as a buzzsaw to slice off the bomber's tail fin and rudder. The bomber spiraled back to the earth, and Mitralexis, whose airplane was still flyable, followed it in. The bomber made a level crash landing in a nearby field, and Mitralexis landed his fighter right next to it. Armed with a pistol, Mitralexis took the four man Italian crew prisoner and marched them back to base.
The deeds of Marinos Mitralexis earned him the Gold Cross of Valour, Greece's second highest award for gallantry. By April of 1941 the Italian Army had been badly mauled and their campaign in Greece was near collapse. Unfortunately the Italians requested help from their allies, the Germans. While the Greeks had put up a stalwart defense against the Italian Army, they were quickly overrun by the German Wehrmacht. Despite a courageous and determined defense, the Greek military was no match for the technology, size, and tactics of the German war machine. By May 3rd Greece was overrun and forced to become an occupied nation in the Third Reich.
Marinos Mitalexis managed to escape Greece to North Africa, where he joined up with Allied forces to continue the fight against Italy and Germany. He had a distinguished career during the war, shooting down five more enemy aircraft and earning the rank of Wing Commander. In 1948 he was killed in plane crash near the Aegean Sea.

By James Slater: Forget for a minute who won the fight that contested the WBO featherweight title last night in Puerto Rico. Both Orlando Salido and Juan Manuel Lopez deserve an absolute ton of credit for giving us a classic war that will surely be right at the front of the line when this years FOTY awards get chosen.
Both men, in one of the most savage, give-and-take Mexico Vs. Puerto Rico rivalries ever seen, were willing to give their all - and so they did. After a relatively quiet start, the battle commenced in the 5th-round. After having been hurt and visibly wobbled by right hands to the jaw, Juanma came back with a scorching, perfectly timed right hand of his own, dropping Salido heavily.
The hostilities raged on, and the 8th and 9th-rounds were truly mesmerising; with commentator Bob Sheridan bellowing into his microphone during the 9th that this is probably the round of the year! Maybe it was. The two warriors forgot all about tactics in the 8th and 9th and just pounded away, showing sheer bite-down guts and courage. How much more could either man, as tired and marked up as they both were, possibly take?
We got our answer in violent fashion in the opening seconds of the 10th. A wicked four-punch combination to the head sent the southpaw former champ down in a sickening fashion, the Puerto Rican stars senses utterly scrambled. Somehow beating the count, Lopez was on unsteady legs (an understatement) and the ref wisely waved the war off. Amazingly, Lopez contested the stoppage, even trying to get to the referee, Roberto Ramirez!
So what now? Lopez, despite having lost for a second time, remains one of the most exciting fighters in the world; arguably THE most exciting fighter today. Simply put, you cannot afford to blink when Juanma fights. Salido, too, is value for money all the way and his next fight will be a big attraction. Will it be a third clash with Lopez?
Speaking post-fight, Siri said he is open to a third rumble with the warrior he has now stopped twice, and Lopez certainly wants a third fight. In light of last nights terrific action, the fans will sure want to see it again. Its tough to make a case for Lopez ever being able to defeat Salido (a man who holds one of the most deceiving pro records in boxing today at 38-11-2(26), yet its almost as hard to say no to a third fight. Who wouldnt want to see such great action again?
Lopez is actually claiming that the referees stoppage was not only premature (it wasnt), but that it was due to a gambling problem on the part of the referee (as reported by Fightnews.com). Even such a claim, as crazy as it surely is, cannot spoil last nights great, great fight.
Inside the ring, these two men gave a graphic display that reminded us all what is so great about boxing.

Machines give dogs a shower in Japan
Dogs hate baths, in fact pets in general hate baths. Who can blame them as they are hydrophobic? I think they'd absolutely loathe machines that are designed to help them bathe. But Japan has been using such gizmos for their pets. Check out the video to get a better idea of how it works. The machine even blow drys your dog. I think my dog would be so annoyed with me if I put him through this process. This machine is best suited for overly pampered poodles that belong to divas.

Interesting to note that the last time I was writing the night before for an article, Mat Latos was traded right after that.

The Curious Case of Beamer Weems
The Padres have a shortstop prospect named Beamer Weems. You are forgiven if you do not know who Beamer Weems is… A lot of people think Weems is a non-prospect. And that's a completely fair and understandable position to take. After all, he wasn't on any prospect lists (including the Friarhood Top 30). For his career he has hit: .235/.362/.354.

While Pennsylvania has a wealth of nonprofit organizations, public agencies, and industry leaders, the state recently lacked a single location to find comprehensive technical and nontechnical information about water use and conservation. To address this need, and to help the public improve its water conservation efforts, Save Water PA was created as a new statewide, nonprofit organization.
The need for such an organization was highlighted in Section 3120(a) of the Water Resources Planning Act of Pennsylvania (Act 220), which was passed in December 2002. Act 220 stated that a water resources technical assistance center should be established, and that oversight and functional responsibility should rest with an executive board whose membership would include representatives from the private sector, academia, and government.
Act 220 also gave Save Water PA clear tasks, and those tasks guide the development of programs, products, and services that the organization will offer its constituents. In early 2007, a Water Conservation Subcommittee of the statewide Water Resources Committee was formed to assist the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) in establishing an organization that could serve as an authoritative source of technical and nontechnical water use and conservation information. The Susquehanna River Basin Commission (SRBC) also received a Growing Greener grant from DEP to develop a plan of action for establishing the organization. The State Water Plan, approved by DEP Secretary John Hanger on January 28, 2009, replaces an outdated plan completed in 1983. Language in the plan described the purpose and goals of Save Water PA in greater detail.
Save Water PA was created in late 2010 as a 501c3 non-profit organization, registered in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. It was also registered as a 509a "supporting organization" of the Pennsylvania Environmental Council. This relationship will provide a critical partnership at the beginning as we work to establish this new organization. Our mission, to encourage the efficient use of water resources in Pennsylvania by providing comprehensive information and resources on water conservation and use, strongly overlaps with PEC's water resource conservation goals and strategies.

Beautiful property. We were lucky enough to stay in the Penthouse at Aleenta which has a beautiful view over the beach, wish it had a pool though for those quick dips on a hot day! Beautiful food! Must do the farm tour. Nothing seemed too hard for the staff, always willing to help whenever asked. If you are looking for a place away from the hustle of Hua Hin this is a must.
- Ayshea Foster
I Liked: Everything about the hotel was amazing. High quality of interiors, food and excellent staff impressed my and my partner from beginning to end! What the hotel could do better: Nothing really, had a wonderful stay! Hotel's website does not do it justice. It looks much better on Tablet website and in reality than on its own website page. Some staff could learn better english but otherwise excellent service.
- Tamilla
It was a wonderful holiday and everything is out of worries. Food is nice, Beach is wide and quiet. Walking along the beach is a MUST, enjoy the beach and enjoy the local surrounding. Definitely come back again

Dear Mr Xavier Masson,
I was hoping that you could kindly pass on our utmost gratitude for the outstanding hospitality that was shown to my boyfriend and I by June who works as a front desk attendant in your hotel during our stay from 9th to 13th May 2014- Aleenta Phang Nga. From the very first day, June greeted us with a friendly smile even though she was not serving us initially, the service she provided was first class. During a mix-up we had with the room provided to us, she very quickly stepped up, thought on her feet and made rearrangements immediately. This was all done whilst the hotel was facing full capacity over the long Vesak Day weekend. She never got flustered and showed total dedication and commitment to her duties and treated everyone to the same high standard of service – Juan was excellent.
On the day of our departure, she noted that our neighbour in beachfront suite 552 is a family of three and asked if they would like to move over to our bigger room since they will be staying for a while longer than us. Her thoughtfulness, forward-thinking and service is beyond many (almost all) service staff in many luxury resorts that we have experienced before. June truly is a credit to your hotel and she fully epitomises what 5 star service is all about. Please pass on our thanks to her once again and I hope you will be able to offer her some kind of accolade for her tremendous efforts in making our holiday with you so enjoyable. We hope to return again in the not too distant future and we would like to meet June again.
Yours sincerely,
- Lele and Joseph
Good morning James,
Hope you're well…
Apologies for the late email, you can only imagine the amount of emails and work I had to do since I've returned to work! The price we pay for going on holiday I guess……
Just a quick email to say thank you to you and all your staff for making our stay at Aleenta a pleasant and care free visit. We have been lucky enough to be able to travel and experience what the rest of the world has to offer, I must say Aleenta's concept is a unique concept and one to be congratulated for it is one impressive concept, I assure you that I'll be speaking of this for many years to come. On another note I hope the birth of your first child was a good experience and that Mum and Child both in great health! Once again we wish you, your family, staff and their families the best of luck and hope to see you guys in the near future
- Basim Aljabary

A main break sent water rushing in an area along Hurricane Road Saturday night.
Retired Baton Rouge teacher Cheryl Jenkins' back yard is covered in water due to the rains Wednesday. She lives just off Glen Oaks Drive in North Baton Rouge. When heavy rain like this happens Jenkins' toilets begin to back up.
"The way it is now, it's the worst it's ever been," says Jenkins. "The toilets start bubbling and bubbling and if you try to use it then the water comes over the bowl."
She has called East Baton Rouge Public Works. They have responded and came out and replaced a line in her back yard; but Jenkins says that only made the problem worse.
"Were sorry this happened," says William Daniel former DPW director now Chief Administrative Officer for the city/parish. "Obviously this is one of the worst things that can happen to a homeowner." But Daniel says help is on the way. "The whole idea behind the Sanitary Sewer Overflow or SSO program is to stop these problems and ultimately when the project is done, we think for the most part, all those problems will disappear."
Daniel says the SSO program will spend $1.3 billion over the next two years on sewer projects here in the parish. Currently the Department of Public Works is working on more than 100 projects.

Bloating? What? Why? How?
Ok. Most you of you will probably think that I am a total Noob after you hear this but...what exactly is bloating?
Is it inflammation of the stomach or too much air in the stomach or what? I've heard that it can get very serious so I need to educate myself.
I figured that the forum is the best place to ask because it is full of knowledgeable (unlike me) people who can explain it to me in normal and not medicinal English. What causes it? Allergies? What are the symptoms? Is it something that passes with age?
Now you can mutter under your breath that "This person is such a noob. She calls herself a golden owner but doesn't even know what bloating is."
Thank you.
Hercules and Julia...taking over the world one woof! at a time.
hey, At One Time Every Single One Of Us Had Never Heard Of Bloat In Dogs. I Have Owned Dogs For 52 Years And Had Never Heard Of It Yntil About B5 Years Ago------on Emergency Vets On Animal Planet. So Nnobody Bwill Think You A "noob" (whatever That Is) Because You Have Nit Heard Of It Or Don't Know Anything About It.
it Is Gas In Their Stomach And It Can Cause Their Stomach To "flip Over" When This Happens The Blood Supply Is Cut Off And The Intestine There Dies Unless Surgery Is Done Very Soon. I Saw A Couple Of Dogs On Er That Lost A Couple Of Feet Of Dead Intestine--was Already Black. One Made It, The Other Didn't.
there Is At Least One Poster Here Who Has Been Thru This And Can Tell You A Lot More. Oh, The University In Florida Has Done Research And Found It Some Times Runs In Families. One On One All Breed Forum I Belong To Raises...darn I Can Not Remember Off Hand If It Is St, Berbards Or Newfies...but She Lost A Dad, His Son, And Then The Dad's Dad To Bloat And She Does Believe It Be In The Genes. Certain Breeds Are More Prone To It, Ones With Deepc, But It Can Strike Any Breed.
Goldens bring light into the world.
Here is a website that explains it http://www.globalspan.net/bloat.htm
My Beau was a victim of bloat but I was able to get him to the vet soon enough that he had no damage but did have to have the surgery to save his life. It is one of the most scariest times in my life.
I am Carol
Mom to Bama, Daisy, Pawley & Shelby
Beau 4/23/96 to 8/20/09
Furever in my heart
Well Beau had the hunching up like he was trying to throw up or poop and nothing coming out either end. His stomach started swelling and very hard. He was whining and pacing around. And seemed to be trying to suck in air like he couldnt catch his breath. Once you familiarize yourself with the symptoms you will recognise it easier. I knew exactly what it was from seeing it on tv from one of the vet shows on Animal Planet. Here are some of the symptoms that are from the link that I posted.
Typical symptoms often include some (but not necessarily all) of the following, according to the links below. Unfortunately, from the onset of the first symptoms you have very little time (sometimes minutes, sometimes hours) to get immediate medical attention for your dog. Know your dog and know when it's not acting right.
Attempts to vomit (usually unsuccessful); may occur every 5-30 minutes This seems to be one of the most common symptoms & has been referred to as the "hallmark symptom""Unsuccessful vomiting" means either nothing comes up or possibly just foam and/or mucous comes up Doesn't act like usual self Perhaps the earliest warning sign and may be the only sign that almost always occursWe've had several reports that dogs who bloated asked to go outside in the middle of the night. If this is combined with frequent attempts to vomit, and if your dog doesn't typically ask to go outside in the middle of the night, bloat is a very real possibility. Significant anxiety and restlessness
One of the earliest warning signs and seems fairly typical"Hunched up" or "roached up" appearance
This seems to occur fairly frequentlyLack of normal gurgling and digestive sounds in the tummy Many dog owners report this after putting their ear to their dog's tummy.If your dog shows any bloat symptoms, you may want to try this immediately. Bloated abdomen that may feel tight (like a drum)
Despite the term "bloat," many times this symptom never occurs or is not apparentPale or off-color gums
Dark red in early stages, white or blue in later stagesCoughingUnproductive gaggingHeavy salivating or droolingFoamy mucous around the lips, or vomiting foamy mucousUnproductive attempts to defecateWhiningPacingLicking the airSeeking a hiding placeLooking at their side or other evidence of abdominal pain or discomfortMay refuse to lie down or even sit downMay stand spread-leggedMay curl up in a ball or go into a praying or crouched positionMay attempt to eat small stones and twigsDrinking excessivelyHeavy or rapid pantingShallow breathingCold mouth membranesApparent weakness; unable to stand or has a spread-legged stance
Especially in advanced stageAccelerated heartbeat
Heart rate increases as bloating progressesWeak pulseCollapse
I am Carol
Mom to Bama, Daisy, Pawley & Shelby
Beau 4/23/96 to 8/20/09
Furever in my heart
When Abby had it (and she has no predisposing attributes) she had come in from a walk, drank some water, and seemed to get it stuck in her throat. Then it was like she just couldn't cough it up (I later learned there was nothing to cough up).
She was very frantic and I knew something was terribly wrong, even though I did not know what. I got her to the vet before her stomach twisted, and they inserted the tube to deflate her stomach.
The next week she had major surgery to have her stomach tacked (gastropexy) and she recovered quickly.
As Carol says, it was a terrible time, I was very, very worried. I still watch her for bloat all the time and limit food and water around exercise time. I hope this never happens to you, but it is certainly good to be prepared.
Abby and Finn
Golden Girl,
There are no stupid questions around here and for every query posted there are many folks sitting at home just hoping it will get answered. So ask away! And if you like sun and surf get yourself to Pacific Beach!
My Ralph got bloat and it happened in the middle of the night - we still don't know how it happened, and it was only because Ginny barked and banged the door that i went downstairs to shut her up and found Ralph collapsed in the corner. At the time I suspected Bloat, but wasn't 100%. but just by the way he was , made the call to the emergency vet. His stomach had flipped, and the vet said that another 30 mins and he would have died in agony. I was lucky enough to watch the operation, and as the gas was released his stomach deflated like a balloon. Although we got him to the vet in time, sadly we lost him 10 days later when his kidneys suddenly failed.
If you ever suspect a dog has bloat get them to a vet immediately. Better to be told that it isn't, than to wait and it be too late.
Kelly, Ginny, Ralph & Holly - Forever in my heart
"I miss the wagging little tail,
I miss the plaintive pleading wail,
I miss the wistful loving glance,
I miss the circling welcome dance"
Bloat is not fun. After Bailey's bloat surgery just under a month ago now, we have been educating as many people as we can about it. He has healed well, but that was a long way from saying goodbye to him on the vet hospital's floor.
There was foam everywhere, it was all he could get "up" and his stomach swelled, and swelled HARD, he couldn't lay down/get comfortable at all and was wheezing.
We still don't really know what triggered it, he had been in the water that day, but when he was found in the house he had bolted outside to try to get something out, but could not.
It was a scary time trying to figure out where the emerg vet was (we were at our cottage) and the drive there could not go by quickly enough. He was flipped inside on 2 of 3 axes and the xray was just out of this world. The scar is now healing well (staples out nearly two weeks ago) and he has lost a lot of weight -down to about 90 lbs (usually around the 100lb mark, so between the shaved belly and lost weight, he looks much taller and more slender!)

Life is for Participating
I came across a segment earlier regarding Katherine Switzer and enjoyed it so much - decided to share.
For those who have not heard of the woman in question, the year was 1967, she had entered the Boston Marathon, five years before it became official that her gender was allowed to partake.
After realizing that a woman was running, race organizer Jock Semple went after Switzer shouting, "Get the hell out of my race and give me those numbers" attempting to remove her. However, Switzer's boyfriend Tom Miller sent him flying and with the aide of other male runners, provided her with a protective shield during the entire marathon.
Kathrine later went on to win the 1974 NYC marathon with a time of 3:07:29 and was inducted into the National Women's Hall of Fame in 2011. Thumbs up girl.

Full Disclosure
mailing list archives
Hello there,
As a maintainer of Caudium Webserver I wishes the following things
1- Secunia didn't contact us about this "advisory" you have
certainly googled the bugtracker on sourceforge and make this
advisory without contacting us before, so this is NOT the rules
about security advisory.
2- The Advisory it partialy false. You write that it affects Caudium
1.x branch. Since there is only one branch about Caudium this is
really disinformation about our software.
3- Secunia DIDN'T contact us (if you look at the source there is
mailing lists, emails and whatever things to help third party
people to contact us.
4- The "advisory" (and even the lasted change logs) say all version
of Caudium which is false, the ONLY VERSION that have the
bug (because IT IS a bug) is 1.4RC1 not 1.4RC2 or even 1.0.xx /
1.2.xx branch.
5- You didn't TEST by yourself before releasing this advisory, I can
consider that as half-done work...
Because of that. I ask Secunia.com to REMOVE this advisory because all
its contents is false and inaccurate. I really hope that all
of other work of Secunia.com is better than the extract I just saw...

New Release for July 7th, 2011
Posted on 07. Jul, 2011 by Andrew in blog, Release
This release is slightly smaller than normal because we did intermediate ones to get bigger fixes out, but it still has lots of cool improvements!
New Features
- Improvements to Option Grants and Warrants:
- Vesting Schedules
- Vesting Termination Date (for example, employment termination)
- Differing Grant Date vs. start of vesting date (doesn't affect anything, just there for record keeping purposes)
- Track number of options/warrants exercised.
- Better UI for the default home page to explain what we do and how our accounts work. Still not there, but better. Any advice/ideas on this greatly appreciated.
- Add 'edit' link for investors so you can change your display name or change the display name for funds (you must be an administrator for the VC firm that owns the fund).
- More details in investment tooltips, particularly to show how much was received in an exit from Common.
Bug Fixes
- More improvements to make sure accounts work right, particularly after one has expired.
- Make the first round (which shows Common) add up all the entries (like convertible debt that converts to common, etc.) for more clarity. Display change only, all the calculations around this were correct.
- Fix tooltip for investments of convertible stock to correctly show whether or not they converted. Display change only, calculations around this were correct.
- Fix to liquidity cap calculations (we found corner cases that handled them incorrectly).

Celebrities who called off their wedding
Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth
Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth are yet to confirm that their wedding is off, despite months of speculation.
However Miley's father Billy Ray recently told ABC News that he chose not to write much about their engagement in his autobiography because he wasn't sure that the wedding would happen.
"They're young," he explained. "They're kids. The great news is, they're great friends. They're really, really good friends. If you end up getting married, that's your business too, you know?"
If Miley and Liam do call their wedding off, they won't be the only famous couple who've been forced to cancel their nuptials at the last minute.

All change at Birmingham New Street station
Developers have broken new ground on the multi-million pound overhaul of Birmingham New Street Station and transformation of the Pallasades.
Developers have broken new ground on the multi-million pound overhaul of Birmingham New Street Station and transformation of the Pallasades.
Foundations are now being laid for the city's first John Lewis store, which will eventually create 650 new jobs and boost the local economy by an estimated £25m each year.
Click on the image to the right for more photos
Andy Street, managing director John Lewis, David Higgins, chief executive Network Rail and Sir Albert Bore, leader of Birmingham City Council were at the site to help lay the foundations for the new store yesterday. The 250,000 sq ft department store will anchor an upgraded Pallasades shopping centre.
Network Rail chief executive David Higgins said: "With a new John Lewis and Pallasades coming in 2014, and a state-of-the-art station complete in 2015, Birmingham has a lot to look forward to."
Work to redevelop the Pallasades centre started in 2011 and the demolition of Stephenson Tower earlier this year paved the way for construction of John Lewis Birmingham. Sir Albert Bore, leader of Birmingham City Council, said: "A true feat of engineering is taking place on the New Street site to transform the station.
"In the coming months, residents and visitors will start to see the station and the John Lewis store take shape.
New Street station will remain open throughout construction, passengers will notice the first major change in April 2013 when a new concourse opens, the station redevelopment is due to be finished in 2015.

Here we go again....Pubs!
Don't know if this has been covered before but....
Talking to dad the other night (He's 86 don't you know), we started listing the pubs present and gone in Newtown.
Bounded by the Kennet, Kings Road and London Road.
So far we have:

The True Patriot
Fishermans Cottage
Thames Tavern
The Jolly Angler
Borough Arms
Jack Of Both Sides
The Granby
Don't seem to have any east of Cumberland Road. Were there any, if not was there a reason?
