Haunted Houses
The list of New York artists who died of AIDS over the last 30 years is countless, and the loss immeasurable. Last Address uses images of the exteriors of the houses, apartment buildings, and lofts where these and others were living at the time of their deaths to mark the disappearance of a generation. The film is a remembrance of that loss, as well as an evocation of the continued presence of these artists work in our lives and culture. (via)

BBC World Service Documentaries
BBC World Service has over 500 audio documentaries you can download. The subject matter is incredibly wide ranging, for example, internet cafés, the influence of Islamic art on William Morris, South African female AIDS activist Thembi Ngubane, Yiddish, the importance of cows, novelist Chinua Achebe, financial risk management, Obama as an intellectual, the physical and emotional effects of a car crash and many, many more. If the quantity and variety are overwhelming, you can subscribe to a podcast, which delivers a new documentary to you every single day.
"Darn! One of our editors is dead."
Diseased Pariah News started in 1990 as "a patently offensive publication of, by, and for people with HIV disease (and their friends and loved ones). We are a forum for infected people to share their thoughts, feelings, art, writing and brownie recipes in an atmosphere free of teddy bears, magic rocks, and seronegative guilt." It ran for 11 issues over the next 9 years, 8 of which can be found here. (NSFW, irritating interface) [more inside]
"HIV is a virus, not a crime."
With AIDS, Time to Get Beyond Blame. Criminal laws related to exposure to or transmission of HIV are on the books in 32 American states, and in many other countries. In January, Darrin Chiacchia was charged with knowingly exposing a partner to HIV without warning him beforehand. He faces up to 30 years in prison. The high profile case has drawn criticism of the laws from those who believe they discourage testing, increase stigma, and intentional infections are sensational but rare and difficult to prove. Others have argued the laws do little to protect vulnerable populations and are bad legal policy. In the sensational but rare category: Nushawn Williams, who completed his sentence last week but remains incarcerated.
Insurer targeted HIV patients to drop coverage.
"In May, 2002, Jerome Mitchell, a 17-year old college freshman from rural South Carolina, learned he had contracted HIV. The news, of course, was devastating, but Mitchell believed that he had one thing going for him: On his own initiative, in anticipation of his first year in college, he had purchased his own health insurance. Shortly after his diagnosis, however, his insurance company, Fortis [now Assurant Health], revoked his policy. Mitchell was told that without further treatment his HIV would become full-blown AIDS within a year or two and he would most likely die within two years after that." [more inside]
"That's how living in the AIDS crisis felt. Impossibly violent and cruel."
Eileen Myles on ACT UP-New York in Artforum Myles' review of an ACT UP NY art retrospective at Harvard's Carpenter Center is a thoughtful essay in its own right. A more straight(?)-forward review of that exhibition from Frieze Magazine. And, for good measure, "The ACT UP Oral History Project is a collection of interviews with surviving members of the AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power, New York." The Oral History Project is on special display at the Carpenter Center.

"Y'all mind hanging back? You're jamming my frequency."
Anyone who was moved by Zelda Rubinstein's performance as the eccentric medium in "Poltergeist" will be dismayed to hear that she is seriously ailing. What you may not be aware of is her role, first in Los Angeles (way back in 1984), and later internationally, in gay rights and AIDS education advocacy. [more inside]
Criminalizing Homosexuality in Uganda.
The Ugandan government is considering a law that would criminalize homosexuality, advocacy for gay rights, or even failing to report homosexuals to the govenment. And death for HIV+ gays. And who is behind this? An American group with purported ties to the administration called the Family. [more inside]

The database, to be unveiled on December 1, 2009, World AIDS Day, contains the obituaries for about 10,000 people. [more inside]
HIV vaccine shows promise
A new HIV vaccine is showing promising results, reducing the risk of contracting the virus by 32 percent. While further tests are still needed, the vaccine is a combination failed HIV vaccines AIDSVAX and ALVAC, based on the Canary Pox virus. The study itself faced criticism from the outset.
A Whole New Meaning to 'Forefathers.'
The Circumcision v. HIV debate rages on. [previously and previously-er and previously-er still] The debate has been rekindled due to new findings. It is expected to be one of the main topics during the CDC's National HIV Prevention Conference this week, as the CDC is considering endorsing routine circumcision. The American Academy of Pediatrics is also considering revising their circumcision policy, thus making it covered under Medicaid. Naturally, there is a lot of criticism of the evidence. In related news, it appears that there is a modicum of the so-called 'Birthers' who believe Obama's citizenship can be proven by his penis.
Publicizing HIV cases in the porn industry
After one performer tested positive this week, 16 previously unpublicized cases of HIV in the porn industry have emerged. Last time this happened, government officials called it an outbreak and porn production grinded to a halt for two months.

Intended Consequences: Rwanda's Children of Rape
Intended Consequences. It is estimated that 20,000 children were born as the result of rape during the 1994 Rwandan Genocide that claimed the lives of over 800,000 Tutsis. Many of these women also contracted HIV/AIDS as a result. Not only do the mothers have to live with memories of this incredibly horrible event, but they along with their children are shunned by other Tutsi survivors. [more inside]

According to Senior Harvard AIDS Prevention Researcher Dr. Edward Green, condoms not only are not helping to prevent the AIDS crisis, but are actually making the problem worse.
Ig Nobel
Professor Luc Montagnier, 2008 Nobel Prize Laureate for Medicine, is no stranger to controversy. Recently, he has been touting his approval for the ignominiously debunked "water memory" theories of the late French immunologist Dr. Jacques Benveniste. This is not altogether surprising, given that Montagnier has filed a patent application for a method for characterising "biologically active biochemical elements" based on Benveniste's more outlandish theories. But there's more... [more inside]
Are We About to Eliminate AIDS?
New Scientist:
What if we could rid the world of AIDS? The notion might sound like fantasy: HIV infection has no cure and no vaccine, after all. Yet there is a way to completely wipe it out - at least in theory. What's more, it would take only existing medical technology to do the job.[more inside]

Tales of the City
In 1974 - or 1976, depending who you ask - Armistead Maupin began writing "an extended love letter to a magical San Francisco" in the form of a serialized, fictional drama published originally in the Pacific Sun, the San Francisco Chronicle and the San Francisco Examiner, originally called "The Serial" which then became collectively known as Tales of The City. It is a suprisingly beautiful, deep, emotional, cosmopolitan and lasting tale about life in San Francisco in the turbulent, heady days of the 1970s and 1980s. Widely credited with and cherished for helping spread a little of the openess, tolerance and acceptance that San Francisco is now famous for. It then became a series of books - Tales of the City, More Tales of the City, Further Tales of the City, Babycakes, Significant Others, Sure of You - and lastly, the spin-off tale of Michael Tolliver Lives. Almost exactly twenty years after first publishing, it then became an excellent miniseries from the United Kingdom's Channel 4, which aired in the United States on PBS, but not without protest or limitations.

If after 20 years you don't succeed.
Maybe it's time to give up. Last year's failed clinical trial for Merck's HIV vaccine (which once appeared so promising) led many to claim that AIDS vaccine research is in crisis. According to an unprecedented poll conducted by The Independent most scientists involved in AIDS research believe that a vaccine against HIV is further away than ever and some have admitted that effective immunisation against the virus may never be possible.

A Shot of Bleach Ought to Dew It!
"Some Florida teens believe drinking Mountain Dew or smoking marijuana will prevent pregnancy and that swallowing a capful of bleach will prevent HIV/AIDS."* As a result, lawmakers are pushing "for an overhaul of sex education in the state. State lawmakers said the myths are spreading because of Florida's abstinence-only sex education"* "On Tuesday, a bill that would 'require a more comprehensive approach' to sex education narrowly won approval from a state Senate committee."*

It closes with the same man, sick with Aids and all but blind, fumbling for gospel records as he spins up eternal hope in a fading dusk. In between, Walter Gibbons transformed the art of DJing and marked out the future co-ordinates of remixology." [more inside]
In search of Aids
Manipur, which has a population of 2,388,634, has the highest rate of HIV in the country, which is also the reason why it has the most number of NGOs working in the area. However, what is disturbing is that a day or two ago, one of these NGOs bribed a group of children into getting their blood tested, so that they could increase their chances of garnering more funds.
A World Fit for Children
Progress for Children: A World Fit for Children Statistical Review "reports on how well the world is doing in meeting its commitments for the world's children.

13-Year-Old Ambassador of Hope
Austin Gutwein first became aware of the devastating impact of HIV/AIDS from a pen pal in Africa."'My pen pal [2006 video - 2:48]*...was the first one to open my eyes to the world outside of my own backyard,' Austin says. One of the harsh realities that struck a chord with Austin was the fact that many kids become orphaned as a result of a parent contracting HIV. 'I started to think about what it would be like if I lost my parents,' says Austin. 'I just felt called to help.'...On World AIDS Day [December 1] 2004, at age 10, Austin shot 2,057 free throws to represent the number of children who would be orphaned because of AIDS during that school day....Austin approached individuals in his community to sponsor his endeavor. That year [he] raised $3,000, which he gave to World Vision to be used to help eight orphans in Africa." Three years later his non-profit, Hoops of Hope, raised $100,000 [2007 video - 2:32] which was used to build a residential school in Zambia for those orphaned -- and many infected -- by HIV/AIDS. Next year's goal -- to build a hospital. [more inside]
AIDS Invaded U.S. in 1969, Study Finds.
Long before storied 'Patient Zero' Gaëtan Dugas [previously] scientists now believe that HIV/AIDS "invaded the United States in about 1969 from Haiti, carried most likely by a single infected immigrant who set the stage for it to sweep the world in a tragic epidemic." A new study to be published this week in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences indicates that researchers conducted a genetic analysis of stored blood samples from early AIDS patients and now believe that HIV first entered the United States in the 1960s -- and not the 1980s. Other "studies suggest the virus first entered the human population in about 1930 in central Africa, probably when people slaughtered infected chimpanzees for meat."

"A Compound From Olive-pomace Oil Gets 80% Slowing Down Of HIV Spread"
In the past, various possible treatments and methods have been suspected of helping combat AIDS, which have later been proven correct. Other, less reputable treatments have also been claimed to work, the likes of which descend towards malpractice, pseudoscience and criminal negligence. But in a turnabout, the olive oil element of South Africa's controversial treatment, deemed to be "Africa's Solution", actually helps as well.

I was confronted at my tennis club last night by a guy who associates anyone who invests in gold with an obsession with doom and gloom. I guess he thinks that people who move their phony fiat U.S. dollars into gold are trying to get rich at the expense of general despair. Nothing could be further from the truth in terms of what I would like to be doing vs. what I am doing. Hell, during the 1990's I was a junk bond trader on Wall Street. Alan Greenspan's magic money printing press was my best friend. This particular guy is a real estate broker and his income is a "third" derivative benefit of money printing. Anyone who works on Wall Street in the type of job I had is not only a direct beneficiary of a promiscuous Federal Reserve printing press, but also skims 90% of that benefit - i.e. a first derivative beneficiary.
The funny thing is, anyone who is receiving any benefit from the hyperbolic money printing going on right now is doing so at the expense of others. So the real ...

Research Institution:
Abstract3DGeo will implement a graphical user interface (GUI) built on top of the Globus Toolkit 3.0 (GT3) middleware and complying with the Open Grid Services Infrastructure (OGSI) standard. This GUI will be a convenient interface for computational resource discovery, computational resource monitoring, and workflow submission to the Grid. These features will be built into 3DGeo?s Java-based INSP system - a generic interface for scientific computing, applicable to any compute task. With this innovation, INSP Explorer will become a window to the Grid, allowing transparent submission of computationally intensive jobs to the Grid rather than to individual compute servers. This essential productivity tool will free the end-user from the burden of searching for compute resources or from explicitly splitting up large computational tasks between compute servers, thereby allowing the user to focus on the scientific aspects of his task. 3DGeo?s first commercial application of this technology will be in the seismic imaging market, an industry that is a natural fit for Grid usage because of its specific requirements for large processing capacity and large data storage requirements ? which is exactly what the Grid (and OGSI) are designed for.

REVIEW: Salomon S-Lab Sense Ultra Set Running Vest Pack
I used to be a camel. I would pride myself on my ability to guzzle fluids before I headed out the door on a long run. Off I would trot, my stomach sloshing and multiple layers of thermals & rain jackets wrapped around my waist. Despite my proud claim of rivalling one of the slowest species in the animal kingdom, unlike the camel I found I had a lifespan on a training run or race of around 2.5 hours. My water stocks didn't seem to last as well as my humped animal role model, my jacket would begin to unravel and flap around my legs, energy levels would begin to dip and the negatives stemming from discomfort would start to set in. My world had become limited by my inability to rival the camel. Until… I was given my Salomon S-Lab Sense Ultra Set vest pack in 2014. Gone are my camel days!

Trail shoes are not made equally, especially when it comes to the lung-searing, leg-burning uphills and the try-not-to-slide-on-my-bum downhill running. There is one shoe on the market that is perfectly engineered for such races and adventures - the Salomon S-Lab Speed trail running shoe. My current pair of Salomon S-Lab Speed shoes has travelled more than 600km with me and still look brand new. They have: traversed the icy, snow-covered Overland Track in winter; orienteered in the sodden Fells of Scotland; Sky-raced over the Dolomites in Italy; bush-walked off-track through alpine Tasmania with an 18kg pack; done interval training on the mountain; run on roads… versatility and durability +++ ! The studded sole of the Speed is incredibly durable. The rubber is certainly the most durable and grippy that I have had...Read More arrow
The Sweat Rate Test
It is important to develop an understanding of your sweat rate so that you can develop a thorough understanding of your sweat losses during an event. The easiest way to measure your sweat rate is to weigh yourself without clothes on before and after exercising for one hour, taking note of the climatic conditions you were exercising in. Method: Weigh yourself without clothes on before you head out to train. Conduct one hour of training in as similar conditions to race day as possible. intensity, pace and discipline. After one hour, return home, strip down, thoroughly dry your skin and hair, and then weigh yourself again. Results: Assuming you did not use the toilet or consume any fluids during exercise, your weight loss is your sweat rate. 1kg of weight lost = 1L of fluid lost If you drank any fluids or used the rest room between the two weight samples, you will need to include...Read More arrow

i was wondering this is a very basic and probably stupid question. i am sorry for that. how do i sum up the values of a calculated array. i want to get the sum of sub totals as grand total in php. following is the code
$len = count($_POST['item']);
for ($i=0; $i < $len; $i++)
echo "
";
echo $_POST['item'][$i] . '
';
echo "	";
echo $_POST['qty'][$i] . '
';
echo "	";
echo $_POST['price'][$i] . '
';
echo "	";
$tv = ($_POST['qty'][$i]*$_POST['price'][$i]);
echo $tv;
echo "
";
echo "
";
I am receiving Item,Quantity,Price from the previous form (variable no of rows) now i have been able to calculate and echo out the sub totals($tv). but facing problems in calculating the grand total. grand total = sum of all $tv

The SARS Epidemic in Perspective
Medical Editor: Barbara K. Hecht, PhD and Leslie J. Schoenfield, MD, PhD
June 6, 2003 --The epidemic that has captured far and away the most media attention in 2003 is clearly SARS: severe acute respiratory syndrome. The SARS epidemic is justifiably frightening. But, to put such matters in a public health perspective, where would SARS be on an epidemic scorecard? .
A scorecard, based on data from the World Health Organization in 2003, might read as follows:

How hard is regression going to hit Cam Talbot?Posted by: | Comments
There was a time last season that Henrik Lundqvist was playing so poorly, and Cam Talbot was playing so well, that a very small but very vocal segment of the fan base was calling for a change at the number one spot. Imagine that. Crazy, right? But, it happened. Small sample sizes can do wacky things to people's perceptions. Talbot had a phenomenal 2013-2014 season, but has struggled so far (relatively speaking) in the new campaign.
Last year, Talbot ended the season with a 1.64 GAA and a .941 save percentage in 21 games played. If he had put up those numbers over a starter's workload, he would have run away with the Vezina. We all knew (hopefully) that these flawed metrics, although nice to see from our backup, were not reflective of his true talent level. In fairness, they aren't reflective of anyone's true talent level.
In 4 games so far this season, Talbot's GAA has ballooned to 3.48 and his save percentage has slid to .880. Neither of those numbers are particularly pretty. I've seen comments on the Twitters and other social media about how hard regression is hitting Talbot, which naturally begs the question: what is the mean he is regressing to?
Building a better goaltending statisticPosted by: | Comments
Over the past few years, the debate has grown more intense about the validity and reliance on #fancystats. The concept of quantifying the game has been a theme we have run with around here, albeit with the conceit that there is no perfect, all-knowing stat that can be universally relied upon to demonstrate a player's ability level.
Statistics trying to quantify human athletic performance are inherently limited. There are very human characteristics in play; such as intelligence, judgment, emotion, situational awareness, etc. It makes it difficult to measure performance as if they were vital signs. I think that to fully expect that level of quantification or to vilify the statistic for being unable to is missing the point.
Much like politics, I think the emergence of these statistics and the resistance to adoption has pushed the two positions out to the extremes. The old school hockey community has written them off or marginalized their effectiveness, citing "games are played on the ice, not on a spreadsheet", or taking pot shots at the Maple Leafs for hiring Kyle Dubas for their Assistant GM position, and various stats writers to make up a new analytics department.

Keep an eye on Cedrick DesjardinsPosted by: | Comments
While we all know that the Rangers success lives and dies with Henrik Lundqvist's health and performance (as it should), there has always been an undercurrent of concern from the Rangers fan base about a lack of overall goaltending depth in the system. With Martin Biron retiring and Cam Talbot graduating to the NHL, the problem has become more pronounced, especially with Talbot likely to depart after this season in pursuit of more playing time.
Slats & Co. addressed this issue to an extent by drafting Brandon Halverson and Igor Shestyorkin this past June. As exciting as those two prospects are, Halverson will continue to ply his trade in the CHL for the foreseeable future while Shestyorkin will be firmly planted in the KHL. This creates a serious gap in viable options in Hartford in the event of injury. Read More→
The on-ice style evolution of Henrik LundqvistPosted by: | Comments
The 2014-2015 season marks Henrik Lundqvist's tenth NHL season. He broke in during the first post-lockout campaign in 2005-2006, and has commanded the Rangers crease ever since. While Lundqvist has been a noted style icon off the ice, his aesthetic choices on it have been far more divisive.
From 2005-2009 Hank was the poster boy for TPS Hockey (formerly Louisville). After an ill-fated merger with Sherwood, the King was scooped up by Bauer Hockey to be the face of their new One100 line, and he has been decked out in the company's gear ever since.
While training camp has started and we will soon be awash with interesting hockey news and happenings, let's indulge one more silly off-season post with a brief history of Henrik Lundqvist's pad choices.
Poll: what to do with Cam TalbotPosted by: | Comments
Cam Talbot has been an interesting story since joining the Rangers in Marty Biron's stead at the beginning of last season. An undrafted free agent who blew the lid off his ceiling and went on to have a mini-breakout season as Henrik Lundqvist's backup. He put up tremendous numbers (12-6-1, 1.64 GAA, .941 sv%), and by virtue of his age, can become an unrestricted free agent at the end of this coming season.
Now, this puts the club in something of a pickle. He has an incredibly small sample size of games to judge his true talent level. What complicates things further is that most goalies of NHL caliber talent can put up quality numbers in a small set of games. What makes a starter is the ability to hold up that level of play over a fairly grueling 55-65 game sample. We have no idea if Talbot is up to that task, and unless something goes catastrophically wrong, we're unlikely to find out this season. Read More→
Justin's 3rd Annual Pre-season Top 30 Goaltenders List (10-1)Posted by: | Comments
Well, here we are. The Top 10. I hope you enjoyed the ride, I know I sure did. In case you missed it, here are the previous two entries in this years list (30-21) and (20-11). Without further adieu, your 2014-2015 Top 10…
10. Mike Smith- Arizona Coyotes. Last year's ranking: 10
- Smith has become more famous for his goal at this point than his puck stopping abilities, but those should absolutely not be overlooked. For a big guy, he moves exceedingly well and has cemented his status as a top-notch positional goaltender over the past few seasons. I mentioned in my first Top 30, that I expected perennial Vezina-caliber campaigns out of Smith, and while he has been slightly off that lofty standard, he has been a rock in the Arizona (Phoenix?) net. His large frame and third defenseman puck-handling skills make him an integral part of the 'Yotes franchise and remains one of the league's top tenders.
Justin's 3rd Annual Pre-season Top 30 Goaltenders List (20-11)Posted by: | Comments
Welcome to Part II of the Top 30. In case you missed our first installment, you can find that right here. Bizarrely enough, there are no housekeeping matters to attend to with this portion of the article (you can find all relevant rules, methodologies, etc. in the first post), so let's dive right in with rankings 20-11…
20. Steve Mason- Philadelphia Flyers. Last year's ranking: 27
- Mason has been kicking around the list for the past two seasons right on the cusp of the #30 spot. He was always just that one shaky year from fading into oblivion after a remarkable start to his career. Last season, Mason finally started to round back into form, in Philadelphia, of all places. He was rewarded with the starting job (courtesy of Ray Emery) and a, we'll call it "generous", three-year contract. All eyes on Mason in the City of Brotherly Love this season to confirm last year wasn't a fluke.
Justin's 3rd Annual Pre-season Top 30 Goaltenders List (30-21)Posted by: | Comments
It's that time of year again; welcome to the 3rd Annual Top 30 Goaltender's List! Before we get started, just a couple housekeeping matters to attend to. There are no major changes to the methodology this year. I am still advising a hypothetical "team" on how to prioritize seeking a goaltending solution, irrespective of standings, roster composition, contention window or organizational view of its current options. The rankings are obviously subjective, so feel free (and encouraged!) to disagree with me.
Last year, I introduced a "dropped" section to give a little context as to why goalies who appeared on the first year's installment didn't make the cut the following season. Unfortunately, this year saw a huge drop off in the 30-21 range (8 goalies), so I don't have room for that section this year. With all that out of the way, let's start with the honorable mentions:
James Reimer- Toronto Maple Leafs: I've never been a Reimer fan, and after losing his job to Jonathan Bernier, failing to perform in big games and being involved in perpetual trade rumors, I felt justified in leaving him off the list. Whenever the inevitable trade to Winnipeg comes, he can continue to be a key contributor to mediocrity.
Ondrej Pavelec- Winnipeg Jets: Speaking of Winnipeg, I'm done waiting for Pavelec's A-list talent and D-List work ethic to develop. He has squandered a golden opportunity to be a fantastic NHL tender, but now the KHL seems more likely than ever once his ridiculous five-year contract expires.
Cam Talbot- New York Rangers: After a fantastic rookie Cam-paign (see what I did there?), Talbot looks to show that last season was no fluke before hitting the open market in July in search of a starting job. I thought it was a little premature to include him, but he is well on his way.
Onto the Top 30 Proper…
Report card: GoaltendingPosted by: | Comments
This was kind of a strange year for Ranger goaltending. We saw Martin Biron retire after only seven games, Henrik Lundqvist really struggle for the first time in his career and the relatively untested Cam Talbot come up and dominate. Let's try and sort it out and get some grades…
Cam Talbot– Talbot came up after the previously mentioned retirement of Martin Biron and allowed the world to see that he belongs in The Show. In 21 games and 19 starts, Talbot put up a 12-6-1 line with a 1.64 GAA and a .941 save percentage. No matter how you slice it, this was a phenomenal year from a backup that could easily be viewed as a best case scenario.
Scouting the opposition: Jonathan QuickPosted by: | Comments
On Wednesday evening, the Rangers will play their first Stanley Cup Final game since 1994. Twenty years worth of anticipation, a big-market, celebrity-fueled war between New York City and Los Angeles. And, at the center of it all, a marquee goaltending matchup for the ages. Since I have done my Preseason Top 30 Goaltenders list, Henrik Lundqvist and Jonathan Quick have ranked number one and two, respectively.
Most people associate Quick's playoff pedigree with his 2012 Cup/Conn Smythe winning performance. As a general rule, his playoff performances have been stellar, amassing a 2.27 GAA and .922 save percentage over five playoff seasons (although it is slightly skewed because Quick played almost 30% of his playoff appearances during 2012). This year, however, Quick has been rather pedestrian (we'll get there in a minute). In fact, there are a number of pundits who are calling a clear goaltending advantage to New York. Let's break down Quick's style and figure out why that is.

Rose Bowl Officials Would 'Embrace' Penn State at Game, AP Says
Penn State University's football team would be "embraced" by the Rose Bowl if the Nittany Lions qualified for the game, the Associated Press reported.
Kevin Ash, the bowl's chief administrative officer, told AP that officials would "welcome with open arms" whatever school wins the Big Ten Conference championship, which generally secured a spot in the game at Pasadena, California.
Neither Ash nor Dan Mihalik, a Big Ten spokesman, immediately returned calls or e-mails seeking comment on the AP report.
Penn State fired coach Joe Paterno and President Graham B. Spanier after former football assistant coach Jerry Sandusky was charged with 40 criminal counts tied to alleged sexual molestation of eight boys from 1994 to 2009. Athletic Director Timothy Curley, 57, and Gary Schultz, 62, a senior vice president who oversaw university police, were charged with perjury and failing to report the allegations. All say they are innocent.
Neither Paterno nor Spanier were charged.

If there is one thing I can not abide it is someone who can look you straight in the eye and lie his heart out. I'm doing the best I can do to get some new blood into the white house and hopefully get Obama Care repealed. True Mitt isn't the best choice in the deck, but he is way up over what we have. The President actually has very little power in actually doing things but I am hoping we can hold both house and senate as well. Last year my insurance went up about 70 percent and my doctor tells me if Obama is re-elected, she will retire. We have got to pay down the debt. I hope Mitt will try, Bill Clinton did a fair job of it. The embassy incident could mean war. But some things we can not hold our head up before the rest of the world if we do not answer in kind.

Harry and Charlotte here have hit on it. There is something very sinister going on under our noses. We are told not to believe conspiracy theories but there is more than a little truth in them these days. I was reviewing them again just earlier today! I have a really good article if anyone wants me to email it to them. At this point, it's all so overwhelming, I don't know what the common person can do. And yes, CAtie, I have been aware of things happening in Europe and also South america because i learn a lot from my students.

Catie, i have found that in the USA there is so much news wise going on, that the citizen there do not get the information, about over areas of the planet, unless of course, the US is involved. the world is at the moment in recession, for many reason, mainly so the rich can get richer, after of course, they have sent our sons out to protect their interests. When living in Australia a couple of years ago, the country, gave every man woman and child 900 dollars each, then told them to go out and spent the money, this to keep the wheels of the economy rolling, I agree with Charlotte, there is a world order, some say religious, some say political, i say both.

there's a simple way to avoid war - stop mistaking the propaganda and misinformation of governments and mainstream media for truth; once people begin to do that, they will see that war is neither necessary nor justified and they will stop sacrificing themselves for the war criminals who run our countries...the 'recession' was deliberately engineered to create more instability worldwide; "something bigger than the US" (and more sinister) is indeed taking place, but the hidden hand will do whatever it takes to ensure that the public remains in the dark...

The Federal Reserve and world banks have more influence on the economy than the president or congress could ever hope too...Congress has little power over it and the president has even less...Where the economy is concerned the president is little more than a cheerleader...so for anyone to blame the present OR previous administrations on the economic mess we're in is being either short-sighted or politically biased... Still, the president is usually blamed for a bad economy but will gladly take credit when it is good even though he knows better

Our government tells us very little and the news is mostly sensationalism of their most popular issues. All the world is now linked with more commerce. If one has trouble... we're all hurt. In the USA The Cable BBc channel tells us more than ours does. For instance: In Missouri the student financial aid(given to the poorest students) have all had their funds held up for 5 weeks. Not one word on the local news. I told all the local news channels... Still not one word. The kids are still being lied to... 1 day late, 2 days, 1 week, 2weeks, 4 weeks, possibly 5. Five has come and gone... The schools don't want to be embarrassed and the state doesn't have the money. The kids should know.

Heya Catie. Obviously there has been a global recession for quite some time now(15-20 years). Some countries simply tried to mask it to their civillians. If the European countries you mentioned, don't appear to be involved in war at the present moment, they are covertly backing other war-mongers. France has been involved in so many global skirmishes, it is difficult to count now. France was built on war, and continues to be one of the top 3 arms-dealers on a global level; France is one of the top 3 biggest arms-dealers in the entire history of mankind. France fully backed the air-strike invasion of Libya(France was actually more interested in it than America was). Greece and Turkey have been warring for centuries. Spain? Spain has played dirty from day one. Europe is the seed for America....check out true far off places; Europe isn't 'far off'. The blame shouldn't go onto the Obama administration. Blame is too far-gone on a global level as well. There was a time when it was easier for people to point fingers, blaming a political party, an overseas 'enemy', etc. It's too many things mixed together: general apathy, religious indoctrination/ultrafanaticism, the world bank, too many loans, people's drive to find happiness in material objects, instead of the natural splendor we are an integral part of, etc, etc, etc.

My daughter's birthday is right around the corner. This year, we decided to get her a trampoline. She's big into gymnastics, so we figured it would be a good tool to help her with her training. I'm aware of the dangers involved, so please if you're thinking about raining on our parade, don't.
My parents were recently in town and since we were going in on it together and I knew what a pain in the butt putting together a trampoline would be, we got it for her early. To make it more fun, we decided to come up with a scavenger hunt for Brooke to find her new gift.
Since I'm the creative genius in the family :), it was up to me to come up with the clues. So during the three and a half hours my dad and I spent putting the trampoline together, I came up with this... not exactly clever, but it did the trick.
Clue #2Birthday Scavenger Hunt
Today we are celebrating the day you were born.
Go to the freezer and find the corn.
(in the freezer)
Your gift isn't here, but try to stay nice.
If you use it wrong, you might need some ice.
From here go to your bathroom sink.
When this mission is over you'll need a drink.
(in the bathroom)
This isn't your gift either, but do not fear.
Go through the back door and let out a cheer.
She went from clue to clue, reading each one out loud, wondering exactly what it was she was getting herself in to. At times, I think she was nervous about it and clues went right over her head, but she had a good time on this mission. She had been asking for a pogo stick for months now, since we told her last year she wasn't going to get a trampoline (mom caved on this, not me. I always wanted one.)
Jumping for joy!
The pure look of joy and squeal in her voice when she put it all together is a memory that will last me a lifetime. She's turning 8 this year, and I know there won't be many more chances like this, especially since she's our baby.
This isn't the first time we've done a scavenger hunt. In 2011, we did a photo version with our oldest son. We took he and his friends to the mall and gave them a list of things to take their picture in front of. Since my son is an avid Harry Potter fan, everything we came up with was something out of the books. That too was a lot of fun, and watching the two teams compete for the most photos in the allotted time was memorable.
Now to start planning the actual party. I'll write up something about that once everything is wrapped up. Thanks for reading.

3 DE City Firemen Injured When Fireboat Hits Jetty
By Mellany Armstrong/Kelli Steele
Three Delaware City firefighters were injured when their fireboat hit a jetty on the north side of the C&D canal this morning.
Fire officials say the three were on the boat just after midnight to help DNREC search for a missing vessel south of Artificial Island. The fireboat hit the rock jetty and immediately started sinking. The firefighters were thrown forward into the cabin console. The operator had an ankle injury, the second crew member had facial injuries and the third had cuts, hip and back injuries; they are at Christiana Hospital for treatment.
DNREC and the fire company are investigating. A salvage crew has been called in to retrieve the boat.

Re: 13x19, 17x22 ready fit framing options
In reply to smertz • Feb 28, 2013
OP here. I am either missing something, or not explaining myself very well.
Here is what I want to do:
- Print an image on a sheet of paper that is either 13x19 or 17x22.
- Place that image in a frame that holds a piece of paper in that exact size.
- Print the image in a smaller size on that paper, coincident with a mat which is the same overall size of the paper and frame.
- Swap the images out on a seasonal/personal basis.
Here is what I don't want to do:
- Tape a sheet of paper to the back of a mat.
- Cut a mat.
- Cut the printed paper.
While all of this seems pretty rudimentary, I have never framed my photography, and I want to take some baby steps first. Plus this is going on wall in our house, in full view of my Captain and best critic...

Mudras: Yoga in Your Hands
Weiser Books | 2000-05 | ISBN:1578631394 | 223 pages | PDF | 1,9 Mb
Yoga for the hands--sounds too good to be true. Do it at the office, on an airplane, lying in bed. Seasoned yoga teacher Gertrud Hirschi has used these hand postures to ease asthma, relieve flu symptoms, think more effectively, relieve tension, even have a bowel movement. The possibilities she attributes to these ancient Indian techniques are endless. Join the tips of the index finger and thumb: this clears the mind. Switch the thumb to the little finger: this restores the body's fluid balance. It's not quite that easy, of course. Hirschi is careful to lay out exercise regimens, related herbal remedies, and associated affirmations. Like a classroom instructor, she guides with simultaneous breathing advice and conjures up helpful images. From building character to healing emotional pain, from bringing luck to connecting with the divine, mudras can work wonders. Now limber up those digits and lets get into spiritual shape. --Brian Bruya
Mudras also playfully called the "finger power points" are yoga positions for your hands and fingers. They can be practiced sitting, lying down, standing, or walking. They can be done at any time and place while stuck in traffic, at the office, watching TV, or whenever you have to twiddle your thumbs waiting for something. Hirschi shows you how these techniques can prevent illness, relieve stress, and heal emotional problems. 82 illustrations. Index. Bibliography.

The director tells how he transposed the violent spaghetti westerns of Sergio Corbucci to the antebellum south
Acclaimed in the United States and due for release here next month, Quentin Tarantino's western Django Unchained is the violent story of a slave on a mission to free his wife. Tarantino's biggest influences for the film, he says, were the spaghetti westerns of the Italian director Sergio Corbucci.
Any of the western directors who had something to say created their own version of the west: Anthony Mann created a west that had room for the characters played by Jimmy Stewart and Gary Cooper; Sam Peckinpah had his own west; so did Sergio Leone. Sergio Corbucci did, too, but his was the most violent, surreal and pitiless landscape of any director in the history of the genre. His characters roam a brutal, sadistic west.
Corbucci's heroes can't really be called heroes. »
