Comment Re:US Bill is only 4 Trillion? (Score 1) 528
Well, I don;'t think that the indirect effects are being much included at all. For example, the United Nations' Green Revolution was responsible for keeping perhaps a billion people from dying of starvation. They and their descendants now are causing a fair fraction of that "damage". Are the US and other First World nations wholly responsible for correcting this damage as well as their direct effects, or in this case would it be appropriate to expect those whose lives were saved to contribute a portion of t\heir own upkeep, so to speak?

Quvenzhané Wallis Can't Save the 'Annie' Reboot, But Her Performance Is More Important Than Critics Let On
When I checked the Rotten Tomatoes page for the Annie reboot this morning, I was surprised to see its positive ratings had crept up past the 20 percent mark.

Lewis Brian Hopkin Jones (28 February 1942 – 3 July 1969) was the founder and original bandleader of the Rolling Stones.
Jones was a multi-instrumentalist, with his main instruments being the guitar, harmonica and keyboards. His innovative use of traditional or folk instruments, such as the sitar and marimba, was integral to the changing sound of the band.
Although he was originally the leader of the group, Jones's fellow band members Mick Jagger and Keith Richards soon overshadowed him, especially after they became a successful songwriting team. He developed a serious drug problem over the years and his role in the band steadily diminished. He was asked to leave the Rolling Stones in June 1969 and guitarist Mick Taylor took his place in the group. Jones died less than a month later by drowning in the swimming pool at his home on Cotchford Farm in Hartfield, East Sussex.
Original Rolling Stones bassist Bill Wyman said of Jones, "He formed the band. He chose the members. He named the band. He chose the music we played. He got us gigs. ... Very influential, very important, and then slowly lost it – highly intelligent – and just kind of wasted it and blew it all away."

Aurora SWAT team members shot a gunman after he went to a second-floor window and fired at police. The gunman also allegedly fatally shot two men and a woman that he had taken hostage. One woman managed to escape from an upstairs back window, ran from the home and called police just before 3 a.m., said Cassidee Carlson, Aurora police spokeswoman.

OPENERS: SUITS; But Try Docking His Paycheck
By Eric Dash
Published: May 2, 2004
After the Queen Mary 2 squeezed its elegant bulk into Manhattan's West Side on April 22, Micky Arison -- the longtime chairman of the ship's proud owner, the Carnival Corporation -- invited shareholders aboard for a peek. The nearly 1,100 investors who took him up on it got a tour and, as a bonus, a cocktail party.
It was, really, the least he could do, for Mr. Arison is no stranger to the little extras in life. He's getting the goodies any self-respecting chief executive expects these days -- nearly $2.2 million in salary and bonus, a corporate jet -- but that's just a start. Last year, he also took home an estimated $90 million in dividend payouts, plus $66.1 million from Carnival stock he sold through family trusts, according to Thomson Financial. All told, he could have treated every one of those 1,100 investors to five Atlantic cruises on his Cunard Line's Mary -- in the $27,499 duplex suite, of course -- and still had a bit of pin money left.

As the turbulent 1980s gave way to the hedonistic 1980s, few bands would achieve such notoriety as The Plasmatics. Fronted by fearless singer Wendy O. Williams, whose formidable mohawk would leave a lasting impression on the punk rock kids of the Reagan-era, The Plasmatics truly took their music to extremes - as evidenced by the fact that they were banned in London and arrested in Milwaukee on "public indecency" charges. Though Wendy O' Williams may be gone, the legacy of the Plasmatics lives on in this feature-length documentary that speaks with critics, fans, and living band members to offer the definitive portrait of the punk icons who penned such classics as "Black Leather Monster", "Butcher Baby", and "Tight Black Pants".

Santo is a highly skilled attorney. He is honest and cares about the people he represents. He is excellent at finding solutions to problems and has a wonderful staff.
Posted by Freedom
He's straight forward and to the point. He'll most definitely let you know what to look for in the conclusion of the case and was right with mine. He's not about the money like most lawyers he's more about the client and quality service
Posted by Rachael Mohabeer
I think if you are in a tough situation of having to get a divorce, Santo V. Artusa will be a fantastic friend and advocate. He is very helpful, knowledgeable and he explain everything very carefully. Mr. Artusa was very professional and informative. He spent a great deal if his own time helping to guide me. His concern was more for my situation than for financial gain. He was able to finish my case in a timely manner. I would recommend Santo V. Artusa and his Law firm to anyone without reservation. At the end of the day, Santo is a fantastic lawyer. I was truly blessed to have found his as my lawyer and at the end, a friend.
Posted by Kumar
I met with Mr. Artusa because I needed a divorce fast as I wanted to get married to someone else as my wife and I were not together for years. He promised me that within 12 weeks it could get done and it was done in only 9 weeks. I am so happy I chose him to help me and am grateful for his efforts.

This attorney if he's really an attorney has absolutely no knowledge of the court systems nor rules or statues. I decided to rate him and write a review so that nobody has to go through what I want through. He never kept me informed with anything at all and it took him anywhere from 8-10 days to respond and when I questioned him about his time frame replying to me his answer was that I didn't have any evidence. Since when do I need any evidence for you to reply if I am trying to reach you? You are my attorney right??? He then became aggressive and rather than replying to any of my questions totally dessapeared from me. His secretary, paralegal and assistants are as lost as him. Please don't waste your time or money with this person who calls himself an attorney not to mentioned the fact that while in court he didn't speak at all and everything the opposing attorney said was pretty much what he agreed to.

Mr. Santo Artusa is the best lawyer you can get as I can say from my own experience during my divorce. He not only understands the unique circumstances of each divorce case, he handled my case with utmost professionalism, care and also maintained an amicable relationship with my ex-wife's lawyer. He always responded to my emails, text or phone calls and always got things done when things were heating up. He gave me a very good rate and never tried to do anything to make more money for himself — rather he always tried to save me money and complete the process with as little pain and time as possible. I will highly recommend him to anyone I know for such terrible things we go through. I have trusted his judgement and I am divorced in 4 months from when the process started — this was mainly possible due to his cool head and sound judgement.
Posted by a client
Let me tell you, I'm quite the savvy business man but only fools think that being good at law is the same as being savvy in business. Navigating through the different rules and bureaucratic procedures can be cumbersome and a nightmare. He and his assistant helped me tremendously and we worked through all the different issues. One in Family Court, one in Bogus tickets setup by an absurd police stop (Stop sign) and another with Criminal court in which some jerk was harassing my wife.
If you want someone who can give you good legal advice and will care about your case, then you need to go to this firm and speak with these guys.

I met Mr. Artusa while I was in court after another motion I brought in my divorce case was denied. I met with him in his office for a consultation and he was very understanding and offered me tips. Once I hired him, my case, although still difficult because of my husband's demands and his unreasonable attorney, I was able to get the most important aspects of my case ironed out and I am very happy for that.
Posted by a client
I chose Mr Santo to represent me for my Divorce case. A few days later, my ex-wife took out a frivolous temp restraining order against me. This was the the most difficult situation I had ever been in.
Mr Santo explained the gravity of the situation and handled the case extremely professionally. I was able to get rid of the falsified TRO in just a week and one short appearance. I was amazed by Santo's court presence and authority. Knowing that I had the best lawyer in Hudson County (period) on my side, I was able to remain calm throughout the whole ordeal. This put the pressure right back on my ex-wife to stop messing around with more frivolous tactics, and agree to a non-trial, non-contested divorce which was my favorable outcome. A few months later, Mr Santo also helped me finalize the Divorce paperwork (Irreconcilable differences), all this for a very reasonable fee and without having to appear in court again or his office. I know it's tough to choose and trust a law firm, but I can vouch for a fact that there are still a few good men out there like Mr Santo who understand the sensitivity of your pain & finances and are willing to do the right thing for you. Walk in to his office for a consultation and you'll feel like you're in the right place. I highly recommend Mr Santo for family law.
Posted by a client
I hired Mr. Artusa and couldn't be more satisfied with his professional expertise. He represented my son and I. The case was handled quickly, and he was always there on my side, fighting for the rights of my family, and making sure the outcome would lay out a positive foundation for a great future. His firm is excellent, as well as his staff, Cindy, his paralegal.

Healthy Recipe Tips To Compliment Your Workout
I am continually on the lookout for new ways to eat healthily without sacrificing my natural obsession with eating yummy things. Fortunately, my trainer always encourages me to eat, rather than deprive myself. Any good trainer will do that - too many people think a deprivation diet is the way to keep trim or fit. The body is like a car and needs fuel; you wouldn't put kerosene in a Rolls Royce, though, would you? So let's look at some healthier ways of eating.
Remember those great tuna fish sandwiches mom made you when you were a kid? Lots of mayonnaise, sweet pickles and white bread? Mayonnaise is just liquid fat (if you read the label, it says "Calories 100 Calories from Fat 100") and white bread is nothing but sugar. I still like tuna salad, but I use solid white tuna with mustard, diced granny smith apples and a few grinds of fresh pepper and, instead of mashing this salad between slices of bread, I use whole leaves of romaine lettuce to make wraps. You'll be surprised at how fulfilling they are and, trust me, the number of fat calories consumed is cut, in the extreme.
We are taught to eat more chicken than red meat, but the ways of preparing healthy chicken dishes can run short after awhile. I'm from Texas, where everything is breaded and fried, and that's a treat that can be hard to shake. I discovered, though, that grinding up almonds in the food processor makes for a great breading option. I roll chicken chunks or filleted chicken breast in egg white and the almond meal and cook it in my Nuwave Oven (if you don't have one, you could use your oven broiler or a George Foreman Grill.) For variety I use different spices in the almond meal, my favourite being Herbs de Provence, but Mrs Dash makes a lot of sodium free spices. Southwest Chipotle is a "must try."
Start Small
Remember, every journey begins with a small step. Matthew Jenkins at New York Fitness offers this advice: Start small. Change something that you don't really mind and you won't change back. These little things add up. Learn one new healthy recipe that you enjoy and make it a regular dish. Those who track their food lose more weight.
I leave you with a favorite recipe, given to me by my friend Brandon, who is super proud of his healthy diet and training regimen. If you saw what he looked like, you'd be proud too.

Tiny 'MEMS' devices to filter, amplify electronic signals
August 10, 2009
Researchers are developing a new class of tiny mechanical devices containing vibrating, hair-thin structures that could be used to filter electronic signals in cell phones and for other more exotic applications.
Because the devices, called resonators, vibrate in specific patterns, they are able to cancel out signals having certain frequencies and allow others to pass. The result is a new type of "band-pass" filter, a component commonly used in electronics to permit some signals to pass through a cell phone's circuitry while blocking others, said Jeffrey Rhoads, an assistant professor of mechanical engineering at Purdue University.
Such filters are critical for cell phones and other portable electronics because they allow devices to process signals with minimal interference and maximum transmission efficiency. The new technology represents a potential way to further miniaturize band-pass filters while improving their performance and reducing power use, Rhoads said.
The device is an example of a microelectromechanical system, or a MEMS, which contain tiny moving parts. Incoming signals generate voltage that produces an electrostatic force, causing the MEMS filters to vibrate.
Researchers have proposed linking tiny beams in straight chains, but Rhoads has pursued a different approach, arranging the structures in rings and other shapes, or "non-traditional coupling arrangements." One prototype, which resembles spokes attached to a wheel's hub, is about 160 microns in diameter, or comparable in size to a grain of sand.
Findings are detailed in a research paper to be presented on Sept. 2 during a meeting of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers' Third International Conference on Micro and Nano Systems. The conference runs from Aug. 30 to Sept. 2 in San Diego. The paper was written by Rhoads and mechanical engineering graduate student Venkata Bharadwaj Chivukula.
In addition to their use as future cell phone filters, such resonators also could be used for advanced chemical and biological sensors in medical and homeland-defense applications and possibly for a new type of "mechanical memory element" that harnesses vibration patterns to store information.
"The potential computer-memory application is the most long term and challenging," Rhoads said. "We are talking about the possibility of creating complex behaviors out of relatively simple substructures, similar to how in cellular biology you can have a relatively complex behavior by combining hundreds or thousands of simple cells."
The band-pass filter design promises higher performance than previous MEMS technology because it more sharply defines which frequencies can pass and which are rejected. The new design also might be more robust than the traditional linear arrangement, meaning devices could contain manufacturing flaws and still perform well.
The devices are made of silicon and are manufactured using a "silicon-on-insulator" procedure commonly used in the electronics industry to make computer chips and electronic circuits. The small, vibrating mechanical structures contain beams about 10 microns in diameter, which is roughly one-tenth the width of a human hair. The beams can be connected mechanically, like tiny springs, or they can be linked using electric fields and magnetic attractions.
"We are in the process of making a second prototype," said Rhoads, who has used simulations and also conducted experiments with the devices to demonstrate that the concept works.
The devices are being fabricated at the Birck Nanotechnology Center in Purdue's Discovery Park through a collaboration with Dimitrios Peroulis, an assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering.
The research is based at a new Dynamic Analysis of Micro/Nanosystems Laboratory at Birck. The lab, managed by Rhoads and mechanical engineering professor Arvind Raman, is equipped with an instrument called a scanning laser Doppler vibrometer, which uses a laser to measure the minute movement of the tiniest structures. The system is housed inside a vacuum chamber sitting on top of a special vibration-absorbing platform critical to making the precise measurements.
Other faculty members and graduate students also use the specialized facility.
The research is funded by the National Science Foundation through an NSF Faculty Early Career Development grant, awarded to outstanding young researchers. So far four Purdue researchers have received the grants this year. The research includes educational components using Purdue's nanoHUB - the Web portal of the Network for Computational Nanotechnology, also NSF-funded and based at Purdue - as well as Purdue's Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship program.
Rhoads will develop and deploy on the nanoHUB a software tool to simulate the behavior of the resonators, a new K-12 education curriculum on emerging microelectromechanical and nanoelectromechanical systems, and college-level course materials and lectures associated with a new course on the systems.

Jeffrey Rhoads, a Purdue assistant professor of mechanical engineering, and graduate student Venkata Bharadwaj Chivukula use equipment called a vacuum probe station in research to develop a new class of tiny mechanical devices. An early prototype, shown on the monitor at right, contains vibrating, hair-thin structures that could be used to filter electronic signals in cell phones. The tiny structure is called a microelectromechanical system, or a MEMS. The work is conducted on top of a special vibration-absorbing platform critical to making the precise measurements.

Researchers are developing a new class of tiny mechanical devices containing vibrating, hair-thin structures that could be used to filter electronic signals in cell phones and for other more exotic applications. The work is done inside a vacuum chamber sitting on top of a special vibration-absorbing platform critical to making the precise measurements. A tiny prototype, roughly comparable in size to a grain of sand, is pictured on the monitor at right. The device is an example of a microelectromechanical system, or a MEMS, which contains tiny moving parts. (Birck Nanotechnology Center, Purdue University)
