AUSTIN - Not only does the Texas Constitution require lawmakers to craft an equitable public school system, it's the right thing to do.
We have one public school system in Texas to educate the next generation of leaders. History shows us that greatness can grow from humble beginnings, and its our job to make sure everyone has the opportunity to succeed, regardless of their zip code.
It was with that in mind that rural and urban lawmakers, representing the needs of both rich and poor, crafted a school finance solution that will better serve all Texans.
This latest special session was enormously successful. Poor school districts will have access to more money than ever before, and wealthy districts will be able to keep much more of the money they generate locally. All teachers will receive a $2,000 pay raise. Homeowners will pay lower property taxes. And, the playing field for business has been leveled.
This coming school year, the school finance plan compresses the local school property tax rate by 17 cents. School districts whose rates are currently at the $1.50 maintenance and operations cap will reduce their rates to $1.33. School districts that are currently below the $1.50 cap will see their rates drop proportionately. The following school year, the rate is further compressed to $1.
To accomplish this, the state will step in with funding for education that had been provided by the local property tax. This state investment will equalize education dollars to the historic level of the 88th percentile, far above the 73rd percentile now funded. Students across Texas will benefit from education funding at the level of the Dallas Independent School District, which is presently ranked at the 88th percentile. These percentiles indicate where a school district ranks based on its property wealth per student - the wealthiest school district in Texas is at the 100th percentile.
A new local enrichment tier will provide school districts with the "meaningful local discretion" in setting property tax rates required by last year's Texas Supreme Court decision. This new funding tier will raise an even greater amount of money for every penny of tax rate. The first four cents of any new tax rate locally levied will be free of recapture for wealthy school districts; poor school districts' funding in this tier will be equal to spending at the Austin Independent School District, currently just below the 95th percentile.
Texas' contribution to these two formulas will raise the state's investment from 34 percent to 50 percent of the cost to educate our children.
In addition to investing a historic amount of money in schools, this Legislature reformed our state's franchise tax. The new system will provide a fair, reasonable levy that replaces the current tax, which many businesses avoid through existing loopholes. This legislation returns to the original intent of the franchise tax, which is payment from those who enjoy liability protection under our state's laws.
We accomplished the long-stated goal "broadening the base and lowering the rate" of the business tax. The new base of the tax will be computed on gross receipts less, at the election of the business, employment costs or the cost of goods sold. The current franchise tax is based on business income, with an alternative minimum tax based on net worth. And, the primary rate is dropped from 4.5 percent under the old franchise tax to 1 percent (0.5 percent for wholesalers and retailers).
This plan protects small businesses. Sole proprietors and general partnerships are exempt from the tax. In addition, we doubled the small business exemption from $150,000 in gross receipts to $300,000 (adjusted for inflation beginning in 2009). If the business's tax liability is calculated to be less than $1,000, no tax is due.
In essence, this reform accomplishes the following: it taxes all entities that enjoy liability protection; it taxes gross receipts minus certain deductions; it taxes at a lower rate; and it computes the tax based on gross receipts as opposed to income and net worth.
Small businesses will no longer be unfairly burdened. This landmark reform requires large companies, such as Dell Computer Corporation and Wal-Mart, to pay their fair share for the privilege of doing business in Texas.
The steps taken this year by the current Legislature injected new life into three of our most fundamental endeavors: public education, home ownership and Texas business. As these measures become law and evolve, expect to see great things from our students, our communities and our economy.
Sen. Bob Duncan of Lubbock has represented West Texas in the Legislature since 1993. During the school finance debate, he served on the Senate Select Committee on Education Reform and School Finance.

"Shrewsbury, pleasent" Shrewsbury by Joe_Green
Shrewsbury Travel Guide: 117 reviews and 284 photos
OK let me say straight off the bat, don't travel 200 miles to see Shrewsbury, don't pay more than �20 (if you're on a budget) to get there, don't plan on spending a week there. I say all of this not cause it's crap, cause it isn't, I've been loads of crap places, and I don't put them on this site. But rather cause Shrewsbury lacks the size to occupy you for days, but enough for a day trip, or a couple of days. It lacks and monumental sight worth travelling light years to see (ala Taj Mahal). And isn't of the dramatic quality of e.g Bath or Oxford to make it worth spending a fortune getting there. It is however a lovely, small centred town, with a nice castle, city centre, rive and shops. It also has nice pubs and is a good launching spot for Wales. Don't pass through it and not stop, it's too nice to do that, but don't go miles off course to see it either.
- Pros:It's general 'nice-ness'
- Cons:It's lack of a knockout sight to visit.
- In a nutshell:Nice, good for a rest break.

TMQ Nation fires back
We haven't even reached United Nations Day, and already the Cowboys-Patriots pairing on Sunday is likely to be the final matchup of undefeated teams in 2007. Suppose the Cowboys emerge from Sunday's game still perfect? They don't play Indianapolis this season, so no further pairings of undefeateds would be possible involving the Cowboys, unless Dallas and Indianapolis meet in the Super Bowl with both teams at 18-0 -- and you can bet your life's savings against that. Should New England still be perfect after Sunday (Indianapolis will be because it has a bye), the last possible pairing of undefeated teams in 2007 will be the Nov. 4 Patriots at Colts' date. Meanwhile Bob Hollis of Pittsburgh notes that the current ESPN Power Rankings begin, "Rare are the NFL teams that win their first five games. Rarer still is when those undefeated teams actually play each other this late in the season." Hollis asks, "How can two 5-0 teams meet any earlier than the sixth week?"

Krumble on the play!
Atlantic Monthly
The articles are great. But where are the downloadable video highlights of editors crossing out excessive intensifiers and underlining dangling prepositions?
TMQ noted the just-redesigned NFL Web site looks amazingly similar to the just-redesigned Atlantic Monthly Web site. Dariusz Lozny of New York City writes, "Check out the similarity between Facebook and the Web site for the London Metal Exchange." Of the new Atlantic Monthly Web site, TMQ wondered why, per the NFL Web site, does it not offer video highlights of authors smoking pipes in their studies, plus literary cheer-babe calendars featuring attractive women in bikinis reading the latest Jim Fallows or Joyce Carol Oates work. The Atlantic Monthly really needs cheerleaders! Here is an Atlantic Monthly cheer:
Emerson, Thoreau, M. L. King,
Our articles are long but our prose it sings!

Ralph Waldo Emerson -- he made a big mistake by not putting cheerleader swimsuit pictures in the original Atlantic Monthly.
TMQ noted that despite decades of determined searches for artificial radio signals elsewhere in the galaxy, none has been heard. Official Brother Frank Easterbrook of Chicago counters, "The early AM radio stations and TV stations transmitted with 50,000 watts. Transmissions went up and out to space, where someone might hear them. But the system was wasteful. These days TV signals move through cables including the Internet, or are broadcast down from satellites, at low wattage, to exquisitely sensitive receivers. That uses much less power. Cell phones transmit on tiny amounts of current, and cell towers use low power so they don't interfere with towers nearby. In other words, technological progress has reduced broadcast energy radically in less than 75 years, and the reduction is continuing. From the perspective of other planets, we are already going radio-silent. If technological civilizations generally become quiet in the same way, there could be many, and we would not hear them. The probability we would tune into the one or two civilizations still in their brief high-transmission-power phase is very small.

Space aliens contacted by Page 2 issued a terse "no comment" when asked about the Frank Easterbrook theory.
Colorado College
They're not afraid to take their act on the road.
Frank Wiesebron of Paris, France, offers this reader stat: For one stretch of the Steelers-Seahawks collision, Pittsburgh held the ball for 23 minutes compared to three minutes for Seattle. TMQ used the Canadian expression "dollars to donuts." Bryce Thoen of Saskatchewan relates that in the frozen north, a hoodie sweatshirt is known as a "bunny hug." He suggests, "Call the New England coach Bill Bunnyhug, which makes him sound less sinister."

A hug for the cute, cuddly Coach Bunnyhug.
Finally, Dan Geisler of Columbus, Ohio, has been keeping track of game predictions. His chart matches Accuscore and the astonishing insider information possessed by ESPN's NFL experts against TMQ's off-price ultra-generic prediction, Home Team Wins, and the Isaascon-Tarbell Postulate proposed by readers Eric Isaacson of Indiana University and Catey Tarbell of Kirkland, Wash. (Best Record Wins; If Records Equal, Home Team Wins). Here are the standings:
Isaacson-Tarbell Postulate: 52-24, 68 percent correct
Accuscore: 47-29, 62 percent correct
ESPN Experts: 365-236, 61 percent correct
Home Team Wins: 45-31, 59 percent correct
Note that NFL experts Sean Salisbury, Marcus Allen, Mike Golic and Seth Wickersham are doing no better than if they'd simply picked the home team in every game. Hey guys, pick the home team. You don't need incredible insider information, you don't even need to know who's playing!
In addition to writing Tuesday Morning Quarterback, Gregg Easterbrook is the author of "The Progress Paradox: How Life Gets Better While People Feel Worse" and other books. He is also a contributing editor for The New Republic, The Atlantic Monthly and The Washington Monthly.

Oh No! It's a P-p-p-pimple!
A pimple already?! Possibly. If you're like most girls your age, you can begin experiencing zits and blemishes as early as age 9. In fact, more than 85% of teenagers deal with acne, and it all starts during the tween years just as you are entering puberty.
Where is This Stuff Coming From?!
Our bodies are covered in millions of pores. Each pore is connected to an oil gland. Normally, these oil glands produce just enough oil to help keep our skin smooth and soft. But, during puberty, the amount of oil your body produces increases dramatically due to hormone surges. This increase in oil production can cause pores to get clogged, resulting in every tweens nemesis: a pimple!
TOO Many Good Things?
Is it possible to have too of something good? Too much chocolate? Too much fun? Too many friends? Too much family? Too much money? Too many books? Too many clothes?
I guess it depends on what it is. Clearly, it is impossible to have too much chocolate. :)
How to Love the Kid with a Funny Name
When I was in sixth grade, I knew a kid with a funny name, but this kid's name wasn't the only thing that made him different. This boy looked different too.
And maybe it was because of his annoying classroom habits or maybe it was the fact that no one knew what to make of a boy who just didn't fit in, but the kid with the funny name didn't have any friends.

In Britain, small but ornate hats are called fascinators, and while this refers to a specific type of chapeau, it also reveals a lot about hats in general. The right piece, carefully selected to set off your outfit and flatter your face, can truly fascinate the eye. Just as certain types of clothing looks best on specific body types, your face shape complements some hats better than others. Don't fret over your options; each shape pairs swimmingly with a whole millinery full of hats.
Round faces pair particularly well with short brims and high crowns, which lend a sleek look. For something more edgy, opt for an asymmetrical topper. Get to know the classic wool fedora, whether you're a man going full retro at an autumn opera or a woman pairing it with with sunglasses and cutoffs at a rock concert.The similar, but somewhat more modern, trilby also works for the same reasons, as does the unisex pork pie style. For ladies who love retro, nail the '20s look with a flapper-esque cloche.
Oblong Toppers
Oval faces, which have the same curves as a round face with a bit more length, can pull off just about any hat in the shop. For this face shape, the world is your millinery, so experiment with styles until you find your favorites. If your visage is a bit longer or has more definition than the standard oval, wide brims are your best friend. Choose a style with a flat crown, such as a felt floppy hat or large-brimmed sunhat for a balanced look. The bucket hat caters to both sexes, while the slope-brimmed crusher hat makes for a more masculine and rugged vibe.
Square Styles
Sometimes, the key to complementing your face shape lies in creating contrast. Seek hats with soft, curved shapes to bring out the best in an well-angled face. Square-faced men and women can both rock upturned brims beautifully, and they can also sport the elusive beret. The curvy and classic bowler harmonizes well with square faces, as does the rounded beanie, both of which cater to men and women alike.
Hearts With Hats
Rounded cheeks and a defined jawline make for a heart-shaped face, also called the inverted triangle. Make your features pop by donning an asymmetrical hat. For formal affairs, dare to be bold with a small and ornate fascinator. Similarly, you can break out the vintage pillbox for special occasions. Brimmed hats with medium crowns flatter both gals and guys, making the fedora and trilby dependable choices.

It's Official: XCOM Really is Delayed Until 2013
Written Saturday, January 14, 2012 By Richard WalkerView author's profile
Once upon a time, 2K Marin's XCOM first-person shooter had been scheduled for release in March of this year, but back in November, news came through that it had been delayed into the next fiscal year, meaning that the game could have still arrived sometime this year. Turns out that won't be the case anymore.
Now it's official. XCOM will be delayed to within that next fiscal year, as previously thought, but it'll be the 2013 end of said fiscal year. So, while Firaxis is working away on XCOM: Enemy Unknown, it looks as though the more strategical, traditional iteration of XCOM will be coming first.
No reason has been given for the delay - news of which comes from the pages of Game Informer issue 226 - but we imagine it'll be to enable 2K Marin to apply all the polish they can leading up to the game's 2013 launch. We're surprised to see XCOM being delayed for an entire year, as we thought it was looking pretty strong at E3 last year.

For years I've been introducing students in my college-level fine-arts courses to the photographs of Diane Arbus (1923–71). Old friends of mine by now, the images created by this "photographer of freaks" have intrigued me since I was an undergraduate myself. There's the frustrated little boy in Central Park clutching a toy grenade and looking as if someone's pulled the pin on his own explosive core; the circus giant folded origami-style into his terrified parents' tiny living room for fear he'll scrape the ceiling; the tattooed carny with x-ray eyes who could be a real-life double for Ray Bradbury's Illustrated Man. There are, as well, the assorted prostitutes, strippers, and drag queens whose lives Arbus described as having the "quality of legend," the men with shaved bodies and tucked-away genitals pretending to be women and the women with plastic bodies and tucked-away souls pretending to be young. Together they form a communion of beings as ethereal as saints, whose lovely, silver-tone relics seem at home under glass.
Projected onto a lecture-room wall, their dearness vanishes. No longer objects to be held and studied like jewelry, the photos assume the scale of billboard graphics, which one might think would heighten their power. Lately, however, my students seem less responsive to Arbus's pictures than they once were, even if I try nudging them in the direction of honest emotion with a few lines from...

Severe weather can have serious repercussions in the transport sector as a whole by increasing the number of accidents, injuries and other damage, as well as leading to highly increased travel times. This study, a component of the EU FP7 Project EWENT, delineates a Europe-wide climatology of adverse and extreme weather events that can be expected to affect the transport network. We first define and classify the relevant severe weather events by investigating the effects of hazardous conditions on different transportation modes and the infrastructure. Consideration is given to individual phenomena such as snowfall, heavy precipitation, heat waves, cold spells, wind gusts; a combined phenomenon, the blizzard, is also considered. The frequency of severe weather events, together with the changes in their spatial extension and intensity, is analyzed based on the E-OBS dataset (1971–2000) and the ERA-Interim reanalysis dataset (1989–2010). Northern Europe and the Alpine region are the areas most impacted by winter extremes, such as snowfall, cold spells and winter storms, the frequency of heavy snowfall. The frequency of hot days is highest in Southern Europe. Severe winds and blizzards are the most common over the Atlantic and along its shores. Although heavy rainfall may affect the whole continent on an annual basis, extreme precipitation events are relative sparse, affecting particularly the Alps and the Atlantic coastline. A European regionalization covering similar impacts on the transport network is performed.

Awesome plugin! THANKS!
Awesome plugin! THANKS!
Hi, I am using mapress for wordpress on a site a this address http://www.bingleyanglingclub.co.uk/...s/coppice-pond - i did the old javascript get centre on the google maps bit - and i got the following: 53.8461975503451, -1.865605115890503 as the coordinates - so i put that in in mappress and it comes up in the middle of a wood about 1/2 mile or so away. Putting it directly into google maps comes up with the correct place - as in on the water!
Am I doing something wrong here - im wondering why mappress is displaying different than google does?

As seen from above, a playground carouselis rotating counterclockwise about its center on frictionlessbearings. A person standing still on the ground grabs onto one ofthe bars on the carousel very close to its outer edge and climbsaboard. Thus, this person begins with an angular speed of zero andends up with a nonzero angular speed, which means that he underwenta counterclockwise angular acceleration. (a) What applies the forceto the person to create the torque causing this acceleration? Whatis the direction of this force? (b) According to Newton'saction-reaction law, what can you say about the direction of theforce applied to the carousel by the person and about the nature(clockwise or counterclockwise) of the torque that it creates? (c)Does the torque identified in part (b) increase or decrease theangular speed of the carousel?
Problem The carousel hasa radius of 1.50 m, an initial angular speed of 3.14 rad/s, and amoment of inertia of 125 kg · m2. Themass of the person is 40.0 kg. Find the final angular speed of thecarousel after the person climbs aboard. Verify that your answer isconsistent with your answers to the Concept Questions.

The WooCommerce Lost Password page fails to load for me--causing a "Too Many Redirects" error in the browser.
From the troubleshooting I've done, the issue doesn't seem to be with the page itself--or the
[woocommerce_lost_password]shortcode. Any page that is selected as the Lost Password Page under WooCommerce -> Pages -> Settings results in the "too many redirects" issue. Even selecting the homepage as the Lost Password Page results in the issue.
When a page isn't selected as the Lost Password Page, it appears and functions correctly. The shortcode and form functions. There is also no other issue with defining other WooCommerce pages in Settings.
Running WPMU 3.5.1 and WooCommerce 2.0.12 (This isn't an issue with this version--it was a problem for me with earlier versions as well). Also running Apache and PHP 5.3.23.
Thanks for any help.

Officials said a neighbor noticed a car pull up to a planting strip on Thursday. A man got out of the car and searched nearby bushes, but left empty handed. A different car pulled up to the same planting strip on Saturday, and once again a man searched the shrubbery to no avail.
The neighbor who witnessed the scenes checked the area and spotted a bag hidden amongst the brambles.
Inside the bag was more than 113 grams of heroin valued at $10,000, Seattle Police said.
The heroin was turned over to Seattle Police. The Department did not release the address of where the bag was found.

text: Posted August 9, 2014 But we can give MKG 3-5 yrs and say it's okay? Just brag about how good of a defensive player he is and could become. Same for Kemba and Zeller. Lets just trash Wiggins bc he's not wearing purple and teal. #FlippingStupidHe's saying it will take Wiggins 2 years AT MINIMUM for him to start polishing his game and becoming a good player. He's not saying he only deserves 2 years. All rookie players deserve at least 3 years to start producing well. MKG started so young and so raw that he deserves a little more then that, IMO. 1 person likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Obama Social Security Administration Trustees say there will be no Cost Of Living Adjustment next year, or the following year. This has not happened since 1975 when the COLA were made automatic.
Due to an increase in the cost of the Medicare Prescription Drug Benefit, Senior Citizens will see their monthly check actually go down. In January, 2009, while George W. Bush was still in office, Seniors saw a 5.8% increase in their benefits. This Bush increase is likely to be the last increase for at least 2 years.
As the price of energy taxes increase due to Obama's Cap and Trade Tax plan, Seniors will see their income drop and energy prices are predicted to double or triple. Many elderly will be forced to choose between Prescription medications and heating and cooling.
Welcome to the Hope and Change you asked for.

So here we go. I want to choose between Aptana, Eclipse, and Netbeans. I want a sort of all inclusive program as I try out these different languages to see what I want to try out. I have VS for my C/C++. So do any of these support HTML, CSS, Javascript, and Java? I think it's netbeans but I'm not sure.
Also, what is the best paid app for Javascript? Is dreamweaver any good?

How would I go about turning the microphone on and open some kind of a live stream to listen to whats happening on my PC in another location? It's going to be a baby-monitor project.
Any ideas on the way I should do this? I am only really after code to do the task. I can do the rest. I am learning Delphi so I should be okay.
I would also need to be able to stop the mic. At this stage I do not want to talk back, just listen in real time or as close as I can get.

Luscious Amaretto Ricotta With Berries (Low Fat)
Total Time
Prep 20 mins
Cook 20 mins
Simple, but delicious, this is all about the ricotta. This is a low fat version of a Bon Appetit recipe that also included cream cheese, but not Amaretto. This ricotta is also good with peaches and crushed Amaretti cookies. Includes 30 minute stand time for the fruit. Each serving (based on two people) contains 3.5 grams of fat, and 1.5 grams of saturated fat (calculated from ingredient labels).
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1⁄2 cup blueberries
- 1⁄2 cup raspberries
- 10 strawberries, dehulled and chopped (or sliced)
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon sugar (or more)
- 6 ounces low-fat ricotta cheese
- 1⁄2 tablespoon sugar (or more)
- 1⁄8 teaspoon almond extract
- 1⁄4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3⁄4 tablespoon Amaretto
- Combine berries with lemon juice and sugar. Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. This will allow a syrup to develop.
- Mix ricotta ingredients together. This may be done in a food processor, if a finer texture is desired.
- Serve berries over a scoop of the ricotta. Serving it in a martini or other decorative glass makes for a nice presentation.

I love this! It's low in calories and really good. Frozen mixed berries were used to prepare this. It'll be even better when fresh berries are back in season. Made for PRMR Holiday Special
wow this is great. I used only blackberries. But I'll try with other fruits another time. The ricotta mixture is so good that after I ate my serving (on the photo), I did more ricotta but to eat like that alone without fruits. I used more amaretto. Yummy! Thanks Maito :)
We loved this! I increased the fruit and also added blackberries to the mix. I skipped the amaretto - delish! Thanks for sharing this keeper which we will be having again this summer!

Viator VIP: Sistine Chapel Private Viewing and Small-Group Tour of the Vatican's Secret Rooms
- All entrance fees included
- Editor's Pick
- Step back in time on a history tour
- Treat a loved one on a special occasion
- Informative, friendly and professional guide
Due to the nature of this special-access tour, the itinerary changes each time. Access to the secret rooms varies and is based on availability, but most tours include the impressive Bramante Staircase (Scala del Bramante), which is actually a ramp on the corner of the Pope's Palace. You'll also most likely visit the Room of Gold (Sala degli Ori), an opulent, rarely seen room that holds a dazzling collection of papal gold jewelry and precious Etruscan jewels.
The Niccoline Chapel (Cappella Niccolina) is another secret room most likely seen during your tour. Every bit as beautiful as the Sistine Chapel, this secret room is adorned with gold brought back from Christopher Columbus' travels, and frescoes by Fra Angelico, a Renaissance painter whose mesmerizing artwork pre-dates Michelangelo's.
In addition to the closed rooms, see many of the Vatican Museums' classic attractions. As your expert guide entertains you with tales of Vatican art, power and treachery, admire the statue of Apollo Belvedere and other renowned monuments. Visit Raphael's Rooms, the public part of the papal apartments in the Palace of the Vatican, and stroll through the Pinecone Courtyard.
Your tour ends on a high note with private access to the Sistine Chapel for your small group. After the doors close to the public, you'll have 30 minutes inside this incredible (and empty!) chapel. Speaking is typically forbidden, but during this private experience, your guide will explain Michelangelo's stunning ceiling fresco, which depicts scenes from Genesis, and his wall fresco The Last Judgement.

This is a MUST-DO tour! I have several friends who have seen the Sistine Chapel and they always complain about the crowds of people and the guards rushing/moving people along. This tour allowed us to be in the Sistine Chapel with just our family for almost 45 minutes. It was a religious experience in itself! Plus you get to see things like a former pope's bedroom and a private chapel where popes pray. Absolutely incredible.
Reviewed by: Michael A, July 2016
The VIP tour guided by Shanon was wonderful. She is extremely knowledgeable and passionate. She has a great demeanor and a pleasure to spend time with. There was not a question she did not know the answer. We spent 40 minutes in the Sisteen Chapel by ourselves including taking pictures. I would highly recommend this tour and particularly with Shanon. I would specifically ask for her. To visit the Vatican any other way is foolish.

PaleyFest 2012 - Bones
- Summary
- Reviews / Ratings
- Photos
- Videos
- Events
From PaleyFest: Fox's "Bones" is—generically at least—a procedural drama centering on an FBI agent and the forensics anthropologist who helps him solve cases, but the real science here is chemistry, as in the crackling interplay between these two characters, and the charismatic actors who portray them. Emily Deschanel is the brilliant-but-socially-inept Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan; David Boreanaz is Agent Seeley Booth. While "Bones" hews to convention with a compelling crime-based mystery every week, the attraction is the mystery of the human heart, particularly the emotional awakening of Brennan as she falls deeper and deeper in love with the intuitive, socially facile Booth. The combination has proved beguiling, as "Bones" is in the midst of season seven. The series was created by Hart Hanson, and inspired by the life of forensic anthropologist/author Kathy Reichs, who serves as producer.
The panelists:
Hart Hanson, Creator/Executive Producer
Stephen Nathan, Executive Producer
Emily Deschanel, 'Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan'
David Boreanaz, 'Special Agent Seeley Booth'
T.J. Thyne, 'Dr. Jack Hodgins'
Michaela Conlin, 'Angela Montenegro'
John Francis Daley, 'Dr. Lance Sweets'

The ancients seem to have acquired much knowledge relative to the treatment of diseases peculiar to women. The early Greek physicians recognized the nature and importance of prolapsus uteri as well as many of the disturbing factors of menstruation. Mention in their writings is made of a fluor albus. The Greeks devoted much time to the consideration of what so long had been denominated "ulceration of the uterus." They speculated much on what should be the dimensions and position of the normal uterus; they understood, to a considerable extent, many of the more serious forms of dystocia. Their ideas of the various forms of uterine version were not unworthy of their genius. Many forms of malignant disease were observed by them. Some of the causes of sterility appear in their writings. Prominent among these, was the preternatural contraction of the uterine canal. Some forms of periuterine and pelvic abscess were

With this set of creative toy buildings, kids won't just be playing house—they'll be building a global village. That's because each set of easy-to-assemble pieces represents classic urban architecture from around the world. Whether inspired by a centuries-old Amsterdam cafe or a grand Chicago manse, each one has its own personality and a story about its history, its neighborhood and its inhabitants.
The buildings are designed specifically to allow children's imaginations to thrive. They are designed simply, with clean, modern lines and patterns that will appeal to adult sensibilities, but with the intention that children will draw, paint or paste their own decorative embellishments, from wallpaper to flower boxes. They serve as a welcome play environment for children's existing toys, allowing them to imagine a world in which all their favorite characters co-exist. And the packaging itself unfolds to become a map, allowing kids to picture and design a whole city beyond their little neighborhood. Made from sturdy, 100% recycled paperboard, which is laminated for durability. Made in Chicago. Each set comes with 4 buildings.
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD - Small parts. Not for children under 3 years.

Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report
The Norway rat (Rattus norvegicus) is a pervasive urban rodent that can carry a variety of pathogens transmissible to humans, bring stress to residents of infested neighborhoods, damage property, and cause financial loss.1-4 Several areas of New York City have experienced persistent rat infestation despite a longstanding rat control program that employed property-level inspection and control measures triggered by individual citizen complaints, a common approach in urban areas.3 Recognizing the need to address conditions conducive to rat infestation at the community level, in 2007 the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene launched a proactive "rat indexing" (active surveillance) program, using rapid inspections of properties in several Bronx neighborhoods with persistent rat infestation.5 The program included repeated, neighborhood-wide inspections; education and enforcement actions to promote rat control measures by property owners; and community outreach. Signs of rat infestation were noted and recorded electronically by inspectors, and records were analyzed to evaluate program effectiveness. After three rounds of indexing over a 21-month period, the percentage of properties with active rat signs (ARS) had declined 54%, and the percentage with severe rat infestation had declined 58%. The indexing approach to rat control subsequently was expanded to other parts of the city. Indexing can be an effective control strategy in urban neighborhoods with persistent rat infestation.

World Briefing | Africa: Nigeria: 7 Foreign Oil Workers Kidnapped
Published: November 29, 2003
Seven oil workers, from Britain, Australia, Colombia, Russia and Moldova, were kidnapped in Warri by militants demanding a $72,000 ransom, diplomats and security sources said. It was the fourth kidnapping of oil workers in a month in the southern Niger delta, whose impoverished inhabitants have increasingly turned to violence to resolve their grievances. The hostages work for a pipeline-coating company, Bredero Shaw, a unit of ShawCor Ltd. of Canada, a security source said. Violence has risen in the delta since March, when ethnic Ijaws began a rebellion that temporarily shut down 40 percent of Nigeria's oil-production capacity.

WASHINGTON (April 9, 2013)--Employers advertised the most job openings in nearly five years in February, but overall hiring rose at a much slower pace, which suggests suggest companies are too cautious about the economy to fill open jobs quickly.
The U.S. Labor Department said Tuesday that the number of available jobs rose 8.7 percent in February from January to a seasonally adjusted 3.93 million, the highest since May 2008.
At the same time, companies hired a seasonally adjusted 4.4 million people, which is just 2.8 percent higher than January.
And hiring remains lower than it was a year ago, when it reached 4.49 million.
Economists say there are several likely reasons for the disparity.
Unemployed workers may lack the skills employers seek or companies may not be offering enough pay.

I bought an iPad because it had a pretty good app that my fiance and I are going to use in place of a DJ for our wedding. The iPad works, the app works, all is good in the world right? NOPE! I have my entire music library on a central server located in a closet in my basement. If I plug the iPad directly into it and run a sync it works. Apple even added this great new feature where you can sync over wifi. I tried it out, and sweet, it worked... ONCE! Then no dice. I tried everything, spent the last 8 hours perusing the forums. All anyone has to over is along the lines of cut the power to your whole house, power off everything with a battery, then start things back up one by one. That's even worse than the windows solution of just rebooting the computer. So I give up, wifi sync is a great idea that just plain doesn't work. So now I need another solution. And I have one: Get off my lazy butt and walk down to the closet and manually plug it in. Convenient, right?

What am I missing? I checked the group policy on the remote system and it allows the connection. Its windows 7 Professional, so no terminal services configuration to worry about. The USB connection is valid locally. What is going wrong? Anyone have ideas? I know there has gotta be someone else that would love to do this!
