PLAYERS: Stan Musial
TEAMS: St. Louis Cardinals
TEAMS: St. Louis Cardinals
Sad news in the baseball world continues today, as Stan Musial, the great St Louis Cardinals outfielder, has passed away at the age of 92. Musial played all 22 of his Major League seasons in St Louis, where became known as "Stan the Man." He is regarded as one of the greatest ball players of all-time. The three-time MVP hit over 475 home runs, batted in 1951 RBIs, and recorded 1949 runs. He was a career .331 hitter, and he won the batting crown 7 times. Even more impressive is his career OBP of .417. His 1948 MVP season was probably his best, when he hit .376, hit 39 home runs, and knocked in 131 runs. Musial missed the entire 1945 season while serving in the United States Navy. This was the second legend in baseball to pass away on January 19th, as Earl Weaver passed earlier in the day at the age of 82 following a heart attack.

Playing golf is a way to stay healthy, get exercise, and have fun all at the same time. The best part of golfing is, you get to be outside in the fresh air and sunshine. Strolling around the links in nature give us many health benefits including exercise for our mind, body and creativity. " The mind is your greatest weapon. It's the greatest club in your bag. It's also your Achilles heel," There are those times when you feel so good over the ball you just know that this shot is going to be an exceptional one. Big!! Your mind says let it go you can do it, and you do.
"Playing golf is not only physically good for you, it also releases powerful, natural, mood enhancing drugs called endorphins into your bloodstream. As long as you don't strive to play with Tiger Woods-like perfection, just having a stroll in the open air and enjoying a round of golf with your friends helps to make you feel better. If the sun is shining – even better!"
- Play Golf – It's Good For You, Birmingham web site, July 2006
The debate as to whether golfers are really athletes ends with Tiger Woods. We've watched him metamorphose from a gangly, 155-pound 21-year-old into a chiseled, 180-pound 28-year-old. His training schedule would challenge any other professional athlete's.
His training involves almost anything you find in a gym–weight machines, free weights, dumbbells, medicine balls and various items for stretching and balancing, such as inflatable rubber "physio" balls and foam cylinders. But what Woods does differently from a typical weight lifter, says Deep Bunker, is that he tries to perform various exercises in movements and positions that mimic the golf swing. He works on his golf posture and grip strength while, say, lifting dumbbells.
Woods also performs many exercises that build core strength. This term, relatively new to fitness, means strengthening the muscles that stabilize your body. Core training involves keeping the torso in place while taking
For the average golfer we know that here's a lot of walking in golf – Playing golf once a week means that you're walking between four and eight miles regularly once a week, which is great for the heart and lungs. Any activity that leaves you slightly short of breath and works up a bit of a sweat is great for your cardiovascular system, or heart. In addition to lowering harmful cholesterol, it also helps speed up your metabolism, making weight loss easier. A round of golf burns about 300 calories in a 150 pound individual who plays for 1 hour while carrying clubs. If you choose to ride in a cart, the same round of golf will burn only 230 calories. The driving range burns about 200 calories per hour.
Weight Bearing exercises are great for your bones. Weight bearing exercises two to three times a week can create long, lean muscle mass, which helps support a strong skeleton. This type of exercise can also help prevent bone degeneration, including osteoporosis. To include weight bearing in your golf game, carry your clubs. A great option to release stress on your shoulders is a double strapped golf bag.
Golf also reduces stress and cholesterol, two things that everyone needs to reduce. A single game of golf can burn up to a thousand calories, which is a great way to stay in shape and burn off excess fat. A game of golf gets the blood flowing and increases your heart rate, making golf a wonderful cardio-vascular exercise.
Playing a round of golf can help boost your brain power and walking the course will help even more. Studies have shown that new brain cells are created and more oxygen is pumped to the brain when you are active in some kind of aerobic exercise. On this point alone, golf could help ward off Alzheimers. In addition to good nutrition and exercise, mentally stimulating your brain is also believed to help prevent Alzheimers by stimulating blood circulation and improving neural pathway connections. Think of how much mental power it requires you to keep your cool and positive thinking after hitting a bad shot. Golf is constantly challenging your mind in terms of coordination, concentration, visualization, estimation, strategy, preparing for and practicing each shot. Even if you are playing golf alone, it still offers many spoken and unspoken social opportunities that will help stimulate your neuro pathways. Think of all of the nonverbal social thoughts that occur while you are waiting for your turn to approach the ball; such as pace of play, other players club selections and success. It does not matter if this is your worst round of golf because golf is good for your mind and body!
Like bowling, golf is one of the top social sports out there and it can be played year-round in many locations throughout the country. If you're walking the course, it can be a calm but thorough workout, and the social side of golf is part of what makes it so popular. There are few things better in sports than teeing up on a beautiful day with good friends.
This vitamin is essential for strong bones, it regulates the amount of calcium and phosphorus in the blood. Vitamin D also helps regulate the growth of skin cells. While you can eat some foods that are high in vitamin D, your body can actually make all of this vitamin it needs just by catching some rays outside. So go outside, take a walk around the links and let your body do its work.
Study after study has shown that regular exercise increases the positives that sleep brings. You'll fall asleep faster and remain in a deep sleep for a longer period of time with regular exercise, which includes activities like golf. Sleep is important because it allows time for your muscles to repair themselves. Playing a round of golf by day will likely increase the quality of your restfulness by night.
The nature of golf requires that you train your mind to become focused and every success builds your self confidence. Whether you are a professional golfer or a weekend putter walking in nature and the success of getting out there is always a joy!
Many heartwarming stories and family connections have been made with the high's of winning to the lows of loosing. One such story is that of Phil Mickelson.
Phil Mickelson was doing his best not to cry again as he slipped on another green jacket and tried to put into words things that he couldn't possibly put into words.He had already shed a tear on the 18th green, though he wasn't alone. Anyone who know the story had to shed a few, too, as Mickelson latched onto the tiny blonde woman who had been through so much with her cancer therapy and shared an embrace that neither seemed willing to end.
As the fading sun added some drama to the victory ceremony on the practice putting green, though, Mickelson wanted to talk about something closer to his heart — his wife.
If it was emotional for Mickelson, it was also therapeutic to golf.
The ball flew out of the pine needles, settling just 4 feet from the hole. Mickelson missed the eagle putt but made the comebacker for birdie and didn't miss another shot the rest of the way in.
Happy & Healthy Golfing!

Cornell Prof Calls Two Students the B-Word
There's new information about the Cornell University incident wherein a professor publicly called two black women the B-word. Essence.com has the full story.
Essence.com: It has been two months since Cornell University Africana professor Grant Farred called two of his graduate students "Black bitches," inciting upset among students and faculty of the program over the matter.
According to the Cornell Daily Sun, Farred invited two female students (who have not been mentioned by name) to join him at a conference on February 5 and 6 at the University of Rochester. Farred's advisees arrived late to the event. After the panel discussion, the professor thanked the grad students for attending the conference. What he said next shocked the women. "When you both walked in, I thought, 'Who are these Black bitches?'" he told them in a low voice.
Noticing his pupils' shock at his statement, Farred quickly changed the subject and then left the women -- who later informed Africana students and faculty of the incident. Soon the program's director, Salah Hassan, caught word of Farred's comment, and the university began an investigation.
Find out what happened next at Essence.com.
They aren't children. Walking in late to something is so disrespectful. I probably would have called them that also.
He put his foot in his mouth and was obviously embarassed. Perhaps they should have shown #1 more respect by not being late and #2 more grace than to run and tattle. Sometimes we need to deal with crap immediately instead of putting it off on others to deal with. Grow up ladies.
Why is everybody blaming the ladies. They were wrong for being late, but he was a straight up punk BI#$@for calling them 'Black Bi#$%es'!!!
Searching for this for some time now - i guess luck is more advanced than research engines :)
Amazing post, honest!

Raspberry Tablets - Times When Raspberry Tablets Are Not Good for Pregnant Women
Raspberry is a very common herbal remedy for pregnant women. It has many beneficial uses throughout the course of getting pregnant, being pregnant, and recovering from pregnancy. However, there are times when raspberry is not a good idea for pregnant women. It can make things worse for some women. If you are dealing with any of the following situations, talk with your doctor or midwife before taking raspberry tablets or any other type of raspberry preparation:
1. Complicated pregnancies – If you are dealing with issues like gestational diabetes or preeclampsia, it is important to work with your doctor on every type of herbal remedy or over the counter medication you take. With raspberry tablets, the effect on blood pressure may be a big problem. Some women have high blood pressure in the later stages of pregnancy. Taking raspberry can bring down blood pressure, but it is important to work with your doctor carefully.
2. History of premature labor – Some women cannot go to full term pregnancy for many reasons. A history of premature labor indicates other problems going on with the uterus. While raspberry tablets can help strengthen the uterine muscles, it is important to take no chances with a baby that may not go full term.
3. History of miscarriage – Multiple miscarriages usually indicate a problem with hormones or the structure of the uterus. Some midwives provide anecdotal information that red raspberry actually helps women who have had past miscarriages. If you are dealing with this situation, talk with your doctor about this option.
4. History of vaginal bleeding during late pregnancy – Red raspberry tablets offers an astringent property. However, excessive bleeding late in pregnancy can be a sign of serious problems. It is important to handle those problems safely with your doctor's help.
5. Multiple birth – Having multiple babies in the uterus puts extra strain on the woman's body, particularly the uterus and lower abdomen. It is essential to give the body what it needs to handle the situation. Red raspberry can help the uterus relax, but that may not be a good idea with multiple babies inside.
6. Caesarian history or planned – Red raspberry tablets can get the body ready for a natural delivery. However, it may cause problems for those planning a Caesarian section. The walls of the uterus are open during a c-section. The red raspberry may cause issues.
Consult with your doctor before you begin taking red raspberry in any form during your pregnancy.

Teaching Memorization and Speaking Skills to Your Children
- Wednesday, August 24, 2005
Proverbs 25:11 says, "A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver."
How can parents encourage children to enjoy literature, speak effectively, and become influential leaders in their adult life?
One way is by teaching them to interpret literature, an activity that children can develop at a very young age. Each of my children had a specific storybook he or she memorized as a 2- or 3-year-old. The Foot Book, Alice in Bible Land, and Go Dog Go! were some favorites. The child would eventually "read" the book to me as I would turn the pages. They would do so with the same voice intonation and emphasis I did the hundreds of times I read the book to them. This is the first example of interpretative speech.
As our children grew into speaking age, Bible memorization became an integral part of our home. As Psalm 119:28 says, "Strengthen thou me according to thy word." Even the youngest child is implanted with the words of God and led by the Holy Spirit in the simplest ways. The following are some simple verses even a 2-4 -year-old could put to memory:
- "For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God." (Romans 3:23)
- "While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8)
- "He who hath the Son hath life." (1 John 5:12)
- "He who believeth in the Son hath everlasting life..." (John 3:36)
- "...The Lord is my helper..." (Hebrews 13:6)
- "Trust in the Lord, and do good..." (Psalms 37:3)
When the child learns to read between 5 and 7 years old, longer verses are added, such as John 3:16 or John 10:10-11. By the time the child was ready to perform, having the entire 23rd Psalm, the Lord's Prayer, or the Beatitudes memorized was common. Because "all scripture is God-breathed," as 2 Timothy 3:16 says, God has been breathing His Word into our children as they put it to memory.
Choosing Interpretive Pieces
When your child matures, he or she will be able to memorize a specific piece of literature and recite it. In fact, child psychology shows that the preteen age group is the most ready for memorization of important literature. This is the ideal age for AWANA, Bible clubs, or Sunday schools that teach children Bible memorization.
My daughter Cynthia performed Dr. Seuss's Mr. Brown Can Moo, one of her favorites, at age 7. Dr. Seuss is a popular one, and Shel Silverstein (Where the Sidewalk Ends), Mercer Mayer (Little Critter books), Norman Bridwell (Clifford books), P.D. Eastman (Are You My Mother?), and Phil Vischer (VeggieTales books) are just a few authors.
Your child may be ready for a more developed piece than Mr. Brown Can Moo. In fact, I saw a 7-year-old give an interpretative speech of Patrick Henry's Speech to the Virginia Convention. Wow, that kid would burst out "Give me liberty, or give me death!" with so much spunk that she touched the hearts of everyone there! Do not hesitate to broaden your children's horizons and challenge them with more advanced pieces.
Take note of the literature your child is reading in school. Choose a part of Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House on the Prairie or C.S. Lewis's The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe to recite. Aesop's Fables, Hans Christian Anderson, Grimm's Fairy Tales are all filled with classical pieces that can be cut for a child's performance. Work with the child to find the piece that fits. You are the teacher, and you know your child best.
When the child has a solid grasp of the piece, he or she can begin the tiring yet necessary task of memorization. I have found that breaking the piece up into sections can be an effective way to organize the speech into manageable bits. Depending on the age of the student, parental assistance and encouragement (heavy on the encouragement) may be necessary.

When Jerry Jones took over the Dallas Cowboys he was told to keep the Dallas Cowboys' Ring of Honor exclusive. This year there won't be any names added to the Ring.
"It's probably unlikely that we will, but I haven't made that decision," Jones told ESPNDallas.com.
They added Drew Pearson, Charles Haley and Larry Allen last year to the ring. It was the first time since 2005 they added anyone. In 2005 the Cowboys added members of the "Triplets" Troy Aikman, Michael Irvin and Emmitt Smith.
Among the next potential candidates for the ring of honor would be franchise sack leader Harvey Martin, though his days as sack leader are coming to an end. Darren Woodson who is the franchise's leader in tackles is another candidate.
I would add Daryl "Moose" Johnston to that list. He played an unheralded position and was so good at it that they added it to the Probowl rosters. Arguably the best at his position and a fan favorite as well as a key part of NFL records like Emmitt's rushing title and 3 NFL Superbowl wins.

"Finally, a product that really works!"
For the past year and a half, my night sweats and hot flashes became increasingly worse. During the night, I was waking up every two hours in total misery from hot flashes and night sweats and subsequently, a lack of sleep. I tried numerous herbal products, but nothing seemed to work. I was at my wits end! I contacted Blessed Herbs and heard of their "Hot Flash and Night Sweats" formula. After the very first dose I was amazed that I actually slept for most of the night without waking up. Each night since, my hot flashes are less intense and are becoming rarely noticeable and I am able to sleep for throughout the night. I share this product with all of my friends who are frustrated and dealing with the same issue. Finally, a product that really works!!! Thank you, Blessed Herbs! Valerie C.

Families USA: PPACA to slash non-group costs
By National Underwriter
National Underwriter
By Allison Bell
Families USA, one of the groups that helped shape the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (PPACA), says families with non-group commercial health insurance could spend about twice as much on health care if Mitt Romney becomes president.
Families with heads of household under age 65 that use commercial individual or commercial family coverage could spend an average of $5,985 per household per year on health insurance premiums and out-of-pocket expenses in 2016 if the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (PPACA) takes effect as written and works as drafters expect, the analysts have reported in a new commentary.
If Romney, the Republican presidential nominee, becomes president and gets his current health policy proposals enacted, the average cost for families that use non-group coverage could be $11,481, the analysts said.
Average household spending under PPACA could range from $3,827 in West Virginia to $8,710 in Connecticut, the analysts predicted.
Under the Romney proposals, the analysts said, the average could range from $6,952 in West Virginia to $15,178 in Alaska.
Families USA has published the table giving those figures in a commentary that shows how the analysts think PPACA and Romney policy proposals would affect a variety of health care access indicators.
Families USA bills itself as a "nonprofit, nonpartisan, 501(c)4 organization that [does] not endorse, support, or oppose political candidates." The group does say it has the mission of achieving "high-quality, affordable health coverage and care for all Americans," and it played an important role in developing PPACA and shaping regulators' efforts to implement the law.
The analyst who developed the health care spending table, Jonathan Gruber, is an economist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who helped develop the health policy law Romney signed into law in Massachusetts in 2006. Gruber also helped policymakers develop PPACA.
Families USA does not show in the report how Gruber came up with the 2016 cost projections.
In the commentary, the FamiliesUSA analysts dub the current Romney proposals "RomneyCandidateCare."
Romney has said that he wants to repeal PPACA. The analysts noted that Romney seems to have said that he wants to find ways to achieve some of the goals in PPACA, such as preventing discrimination against people with pre-existing conditions who had insurance when they became ill.
Romney also seems to support letting insured people keep young adult dependents on their coverage and consumer access to quality rankings, the analysts said.
The analysts have concluded that "RomneyCandidateCare" would lead to an enormous change in the direction of health care in the United States.
"Especially in terms of cost and coverage, RomneyCandidateCare would place a growing and unsustainable burden on America's families," the analysts said. "That burden would make health coverage and care unaffordable for a huge portion of our nation's middle-class and moderate-income families, thereby resulting in more and more people joining the ranks of the uninsured."

Those are awesome. I can see those being used in a inset or a border. They were published in 1555 so I don't know what that means for copyright. Thanks for finding those Ravs :)
The originals are certainly public domain but these are posted on flikr with CC-BY so thats cery liberal anyways. Most of these masks appear to be similar to a wierd thing in UK churches. Someone knowledgeable about history might tell me about non UK churches but there was a fad of putting "Green Men" around the tops of churches. I dont know if it was to ward off spirits or attract them... maybe ill head to wikipedia... Theres certainly loads and loads of references to them if you need more.
Edit -- yes here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_men and quite a few in the gallery there too.
Totally following this person XD
Cool stuff. I was just thinking about looking for those carved things on the front of ships but green men can work just as well...ooo maybe some gargoyles from churches.
Nice find Ravs!

The Sweet Success of a Family Business
Mix a little laughter, a pinch of life's biggest surprises, and a hefty heaping of family and you get the winning recipe for Yummy Cupcakes, an up-and-coming, family-owned cupcake shop in California.
This contest has expired. Please visit our giveaways page for more prizes and contests!
Momlogic sat down with executive chef and co-owner Tiffini Soforenko to find out how she blends life as a mom, a chef, and a businesswoman in one yummy concoction.
ML: This is definitely a family business. You run it with your mom and husband Nik, with three children underfoot! Tell us how you are able to balance family and a successful business.
TS: A supportive family is probably the key factor. We have an amazingly supportive family. We all pitch in to help each other and make things work whenever we can. For example, if my son has an important little league game or my daughter has a recital and I have a work commitment, my mom will step in and handle the work commitment so I can attend my child's event.
Time management is always a challenge. While we know what we need to do, it is a constant struggle to leave work at work and home at home. But we try, earnestly, to keep it separate. It helps that my children love cupcakes and feel so connected to our business. We often will ask their opinion on a cupcake matter or bounce an idea off of them, and they love it. It allows me to work ... a little ... when at home.
ML: How did you decide on a "cupcake only" business?
TS: After enjoying cupcakes at bakeries in New York, I had an idea that it would be so great if we could walk into a bakeshop and be faced with nothing but cupcake flavor options, much like you would experience in a cake shop. I ran the idea by my mom and husband, and they both thought it was a terrific idea. So we went into business in March 2004 and now have a thriving business with 175 yummy cupcake flavors and delicious cupcake products we created, like Cupcake in a Jar, Cupcake Truffles, Cupcake on a Stick, Cupcake Biscotti, and Cupcake Party Kit, with bakeshops in Burbank and Santa Monica, with Woodland Hills and Valencia about to open, and a franchise soon to be offered.
ML: You named your shop after your son's reaction to the products. Tell us how it happened.
TS: When we first started, we spent a lot of time in a commercial kitchen, testing and perfecting recipes. My son Logan, then 3 years old, was one of our best taste testers. Every time we had a cupcake that we all agreed was a winner, Logan would taste it and tell us that it was a "yummy cupcake." He never called a cupcake "yummy" unless it was a perfect cupcake. So we thought it only fitting that we name our company "Yummy Cupcakes," as a representation of our feeling about baking the perfect cupcake.
ML: How do you incorporate healthy eating habits into your family's life? It must be hard with a family sweet shop!
TS: Healthy eating has always been a part of our family's life, so we all know to select what we eat wisely. Our cupcakes are all made from whole, real ingredients. We never use trans fats, lards, preservatives, or prepackaged mixes in our baking. We use ingredients such as whole milks, creamery butter, ranch fresh eggs, pure cane sugars, and fresh fruits and their juices and zests. So eating a cupcake is a treat for all of us.
ML: As a mother, tell us your recipe for raising a well-rounded family.
TS: Quality time spent with each member of the family. Respect for each other's time and needs. Being there for each other is important. Our schedules are such that either Mom, Dad, or Grandmother are always with the children, so they get a lot of support and nurturing, and this gives us flexibility.
ML: Finally, what is the perfect end-of-summer cupcake?
TS: Those with fresh fruits such as Strawberry Shortcake, Summer Lemonade, and Berry Pie! But we are looking forward to our fall calendar, filled with fun flavors like Peanut Butter & Jelly, Chocolate Butterscotch, and Apple Pie!
Getting hungry? You could win a $50 gift certificate to Yummy Cupcakes! Enter here.
as a professional graphic designer speaking; get a new logo asap.
bluntly speaking, it's horrendous. i'm sure you know what you're doing when it comes to cupcakes, but when it comes to the graphic representation of your company, it's clear you have no clue.
if you don't believe me, ask around (not to your 15 year-old niece that knows how to use photoshop) but to actual designer, or even your competitors and see the kind of thing they're doing to remain more visually appealing in the market.
anyway, it can't hurt to ask around the real opinion?
because as yummy as your cupcakes sound, your logo made me CRINGE and i would never go into a shop that portrayed their cupcakes as a flat-topped, icing-less thing with a jetsons-esque nike swoosh around curlz typeface.
the lineweights are too thin and it's just not appealing or yummy looking at ALL.
get a new visual identity, it will help, i promise.
Great article - thanks! You can learn more about online free coupon registration, great discounts related queries, as well as the pros and cons of different websites with us…..
Those look so delicious!
oh yea, i will take a dozen, please. :)
This is a incredibly very good read for me, Need to admit you might be one on the best bloggers I ever saw.Thanks for posting this informative article.

Two former Erie County Prison corrections officers facing theft and tampering charges are now headed to trial.
Both Leslie and Daniel Danowski waived their rights to a preliminary hearing Friday.
They are accused of manipulating time sheets and stealing ammunition from the prison. Both were fired back in October, following an investigation that was launched by county executive Barry Grossman.
As of Friday afternoon, there's no word on a trial date for either person.

[rb for cirq6] Choose One!
Often times in life, one is faced with choices. Sometimes, those choices are ones we don't want to make, simply because we would rather take the whole thing rather than leave behind or exclude one or the other.
This is such a moment. Neil Machlovitz, owner and master fitter at J Lucas is asking us and our very suave sartorial gurus on Tumblr (meaning YOU!) to give our collective opinion on two separate questions:
1. Does Mountbatten pink go well when paired with lavender (as in the db jacket/shirt combo in the pic)?
2. Which of the two looks is a better color combination?
Even though your choice won't result in your going home with either of these fine pieces, SOMEONE is going to be randomly selected to win one of JLC's famous pocket rounds to grace the breast pocket of your jacket.
Make a choice, add comments and let me know your thoughts. Who said making a choice can't be rewarding?!!
SOMEONE is to be randomly selected and win one of JLC's famous pocket rounds based off of your response ..hmm...
Not so sure about that second combo. The first (brown and blue) I'd definitely see wearing.

Publisher Comments:
This dazzling collection of shorter fiction describes a series of self-awakenings — a suburban divorcee deciding among lovers, a celebrity drawn into his cousin's life of crime, a father remembering bygone Chicago, an artist, and an academic awaiting extradition for some unnamed offense.
"Bellow's themes, his characters, even his descriptions have always been eloquent defenses of expansion and extended length, so that one comes to these five stories with curiosity and reservation. Unsurprisingly, the best story is the longest story; it is the best story because, as always, Bellow depends on analysis and implication to build his characters, and both of these methods demand the gradual development he long ago mastered. And the other stories are simply surprises. Depending on technique and panache, they showcase Bellow's craftmanship and for that reason alone are indispensable."

GE's CSO Francis Taylor to keynote ESX 2009
Speaker brings background in Dept. of State security and counterterrorism
The Electronic Security Expo has announced that Francis Taylor, vice president and chief security officer for General Electric (GE), will deliver the 2009 keynote address. Taylor's keynote will be presented at the 2nd annual ESX on the morning of June 24 in Baltimore, Md., at the Baltimore Convention Center.
Taylor is a former head of security from the U.S. Department of State, where he oversaw protection of U.S. embassies around the world, as well as the consulates and State Department personnel. He has served as a senior advisor to the President on the topic of counterterrorism in the wake of the 9/11 attacks.
His topic for the keynote is "Local Solutions for Global Security Threats," and he will be discussing how companies involved in security systems integration and monitoring can become "providers of choice" to the government and corporate security decision makers.
Along with the keynote, GE Security will be sponsoring the keynote, as it did during the 2008 Electronic Security Expo in Nashville, Tenn. The 2008 keynote featured former NFL player Cris Carter and brother John Carter, of security and project management firm Carter Brothers.
ESX is an annual event co-owned by the National Burglar and Fire Alarm Association (NBFAA) and the Central Station Alarm Association (CSAA). The expo features a tradeshow and numerous training sessions related to fire detection systems, alarm systems, networking, access control and video surveillance as well as business management. Sessions are designed with systems designers, technicians, business owners and systems developers in mind. More information on the expo, scheduled for June 23-25, 2009, is available at www.ESXweb.com.

Francis X. Taylor is Vice President and Chief Security Officer for the General Electric Company. He joined GE on March 7, 2005. He is responsible for overseeing GE's global security operations and crisis management processes.

Most recently, he served as the Assistant Secretary of State for Diplomatic Security and Director of the Office of Foreign Missions, with a rank of Ambassador. The Bureau of Diplomatic Security is the Department of State's security and law enforcement arm.

Leading more than 32,500 US, foreign and contractor personnel, he provided security for all US government employees assigned to over 250 U.S. embassies and consulates worldwide. The Ambassador also directed the law enforcement function of the Bureau, wherein Diplomatic Security Service special agents protect the Secretary of State and foreign dignitaries who visit the United States. And conduct criminal investigations of violation of US Visa and Immigration statutes. As Director of the Office of Foreign Missions, Taylor regulated the activities of foreign missions in the United States to protect the foreign policy and national security interests of the United States and safeguards the American public from abuses of privileges and immunities by diplomatic and consular officials.

In this role, he was responsible for the implementing US counterterrorism policy overseas and coordinating the US government response to international terrorist activities.

2011 Guide Analysis: "With economic times tight, the green lighting of a fourth "Mission: Impossible" was a no-brainer for Paramount. With the last film pulling in $400 million worldwide from a $150 million budget, so long as the costs could be kept under control then the studio would have a sure fire moneymaker on its hands. The initial aim was to get J.J. Abrams back in the director's chair and have the film in theatres in time for Memorial Day 2011.
Then various delays in development and pre-production forced the film to be pushed back to December this year, a welcome move as the studio would've been rushing far too fast to meet that original release date. With a slightly tighter $140 million budget, there was talk the film would drop the "Mission: Impossible" title altogether in favor of just the name "Aries", however that was ultimately decided against and the new title "Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol" was revealed at a Dubai press conference.
The other big talk in pre-production was Tom Cruise's involvement. With the action superstar not the box-office draw he once was, and the disappointing box-office of "Knight and Day" this past Summer ramming the point home, the studio opted to play it safe and is moving the focus away from Cruise's Ethan Hunt character to the new team and more specifically the role of Brandt whom could become the franchise's new key cast member. That role was tested with various actors including Anthony Mackie, Christopher Egan and Kevin Zegers though ultimately "The Hurt Locker" and "The Town" star Jeremy Renner won it.
Abrams opted out of directing the film but remains as producer and contributed to the script. Ultimately Brad Bird ("The Incredibles," "Ratatouille") came onboard to helm and filming has taken place throughout the world over the past four months including Dubai, Prague, Moscow, Vancouver and Rajasthan in India. Shooting in Dubai included some death-defying stunt work on top of the Burj Khalifa tower, the world's tallest building.
The casting is pretty inspired this time out including "Deja Vu" actress Paula Patton, "Lost" hunk Josh Holloway, the return of Simon Pegg, "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" Swedish actor Michael Nyqvist as the villain, and "Slumdog Millionaire" actor Anil Kapoor in a key role. The feel here is one of optimism. The general misfire of the second film aside, both the first and third 'Mission' are generally liked though neither are really considered great. This one is expected to at least follow suit if not set a new high watermark if Bird's skills with live action are anywhere near as acute as they are with animation."
