Elizabeth Ailes, publisher of The Putnam County News &
Recorder and The Putnam County Courier, gave the
keynote address to 654 members of the Class of 2012 and thousands
of family and friends at the 49th annual Mount Saint Mary College
commencement in Newburgh, NY.
In her remarks, Ailes referred to Rudyard Kipling's famous poem
about the characteristics of maturity, If, and added that
"Whatever you want, if you want it badly enough, you've got a good
chance of getting it."
Obtaining goals in life depends on several things, noted Ailes,
such as having "passion and being willing to follow your heart
while using your head."
Ailes told the graduates she discovered her passion at age 12,
was "addicted to news," and long before Google she was a
"pint-sized, do-it-yourself search engine."
Ailes would write and illustrate small newspapers for her family
and neighborhood friends.
After graduating from Southern Connecticut State University with
a degree in journalism, she "happily worked the overnight shift as
a production assistant (at a television station) and within a few
months, was promoted to the overnight assignment desk," she
She encouraged the graduates to be "willing to outwork others.
If you are tireless and demand excellence of yourself and your
colleagues, you will succeed."
Be ready to improvise, she said, and expect and embrace changes.
Learn how to be flexible, encourage and help others, and get up
each morning and "say a prayer that today is another opportunity;
today there is some worthwhile occasion that you will rise to,"
said Ailes.
Ailes is a 20-year veteran of NBC News, CNBC, and America's
Talking, the forerunner of MSNBC. She began her career at NBC News
Radio and NBC News. She was the first producer hired at CNBC and
part of a three-person team responsible for launching the network
in April 1989. Ailes later became Director of Business Programming
at CNBC, before becoming Vice President of Programming at America's
Talking, the predecessor to MSNBC.
She is the wife of Roger Ailes, chairman and CEO of the Fox News
Channel and Fox Business Network, and the owner of the Hudson
Valley Freedom Press, which publishes both newspapers.
In addition to Ailes, other honorary degree recipients included:
His Eminence Peter Cardinal Turkson, president of the Pontifical
Council for Justice and Peace; Joseph A. Reilly, CEO of the Empire
Broadcasting Corporation.
Cardinal Turkson, appointed president of the Pontifical Council
by Pope Benedict XVI in 2009, shared with the graduates about his
objectives and mandate to "promote justice and peace in the world,
in the light of the Gospel and of the social teaching of the
Church" and "foster relations with international Catholic
organizations and with other bodies, be they Catholic or not, that
are sincerely committed to the promotion of the values of justice
and peace in the world."
Speaking about the education the graduates received at Mount
Saint Mary College, Cardinal Turkson said it was a "rich blend of
scholarship and spirituality."
Among his many activities, Cardinal Turkson serves on the board
of directors of Medicus Christi: founded to bring professional and
compassionate medical care into poor countries where crucial
medical and surgical expertise is lacking.
Born in Nsuta Wassaw, Ghana, he was ordained a priest for the
Archdiocese of Cape Coast in 1975, did doctoral studies in Sacred
Scripture at the Pontifical Biblical Institute, Rome, and taught at
St Theresa's Minor Seminary and St. Peter's Major Seminary. In 1992
he was appointed Archbishop of Cape Coast, and he was created and
proclaimed Cardinal by Pope John Paul II in 2003, of the Title of
San Liborio (St. Liborius).
Reilly, a native New Yorker, retired as president and CEO of the
New York State Broadcasters Association in 2011.
He urged graduates to "follow your heart, follow your passion,
take risks, take time to pick a mate, don't forget your parents and
remember to keep God in your life."
He was the first full-time executive director of the association
in 1980, and became president in 1986. Reilly represented the
interests of more than 750 radio and television stations, including
the major New York City based networks, and advocated for the
broadcasting profession before state and federal legislative bodies
and represented the Association throughout the nation. Over the
past decade, membership in the Association tripled. Before joining
the Association, he founded, co-owned and operated a dozen
broadcast properties in Virginia, Pennsylvania, and New York.
Among Reilly's many achievements was his leadership to open New
York State courts to cameras and microphones; in 1987, Governor
Mario Cuomo signed into law a landmark bill permitting electronic
media entry in courtrooms throughout the state. The Association
also led in the transition from analog to digital television.
He is a graduate of Christian Brothers Academy in Albany and
Seton Hall University in South Orange, NJ and resides in
Voorheesville, NY.
Fr. Kevin Mackin OFM, Mount Saint Mary College president,
recognized 654 bachelor's and master's degree candidates during the
commencement ceremony held outdoors May 19 on the campus
overlooking the Hudson River.
Among the graduates were the children of four faculty members,
each of whom presented a diploma to her son or daughter.
Professor of nursing Dianne Murphy presented a diploma to her
son, Sean Murphy of Port Jervis, NY, a nursing major; nursing
professor Jill Sussman, daughter Melanie Sussman of Garrison, NY,
human services; chemistry professor Lynn Maelia, son Thomas Maelia
of Newburgh, NY, information technology; and business instructor
Shelley Love, son Zachary Ciraolo of New Windsor, NY, business
management and administration.

I have the 6/5/4 Amp. 3rd season and still nice and toasty. Much warmer then the Rip Curl 5/4/3 it replaced, a tad less flexible. I'll replace it with another Hyperflex when it fails, either AMP or FLOW. I think the FLOW today is what the AMP was 3 years ago, so I'll probably go with it.Anyone have any experience with hyperflex wetsuits? I was thinking about getting a 4/3 at the end of winter.
I was out on the 19th for about 4 hours. Wasn't cold. I always had 5/4/3 suits prior to this one, but I'll be rocking the 6 mil from here on out. I love to do long sessions and the extra warmth is really nice. I don't mind the extra thickness.
I bought Hyperflex boots, not overly impressed. I rarely use them. Could just be a bad fit for my feet though, I ordered them and I think it's worth trying boots on first.

Chikungunya, a virus spread through mosquito bites, has now sickened thousands of people in Haiti, according to the Haitian government.
Historically, chikungunya has affected people in Africa, Asia, and Europe. In late 2013, the first cases of the virus appeared in the Caribbean, and this spring, health officials confirmed the virus in Haiti for the first time. The virus is rarely fatal but causes fever and severe joint pain; the symptoms can be treated with analgesics but there is no drug to stop the virus itself.
Since first detected in Haiti, the virus has spread rapidly. The Haitian Ministry of Health has reported more than 27,000 suspected cases at the end of May, and there are likely many more people who have been sick but haven't gone to a health facility where the case could be recorded. Only lab testing can confirm a case of the virus.
People living in Port-au-Prince have been most affected, but Partners In Health clinicians have seen cases in the Central and the Artibonite departments of Haiti as well. At University Hospital in Mirebalais, for example, clinicians recorded more than 200 suspected cases, including about 20 children, during the month of May. Cate Oswald, senior program officer for PIH in Haiti, said that even as the staff cares for sick patients, they're also falling ill.
"So many of our staff have gotten sick over the past weeks—all with the same symptoms," Oswald said. "People are unable to come to work because of fever and severe joint pain."
Dr. Gregory Jerome, director of Monitoring, Evaluation, and Quality Improvement for Zanmi Lasante, PIH's sister organization in Haiti, said that most patients don't seek care in a health facility, since there is no specific treatment. Many opt instead to take medicine such as acetaminophen and stay at home to wait out the virus.
The illness caused by the virus is most often a painful but self-limited disease with symptoms usually beginning three to seven days after being bitten by an infected mosquito, and lasting up to one week. Symptoms most often include joint and muscle pain, headache, and fever, with the occasional presence of a rash. Occasionally, joint pain and arthritis can last for weeks to months.
"The vast majority of people sick with chikungunya don't actually seek for care at any institution, which means their cases go unrecorded," Jerome said. "By now, there are probably thousands of cases in Mirebalais, because the attack rate of this infection is very high all over the country."
Chikungunya affects 95 percent of those who are infected with the virus. Although it is not clear what percentage of people infected with chikungunya develop severe disease, there are severe and even life-threatening complications including respiratory, cardiac, and kidney failure as well as meningitis and hepatitis.
To avoid the virus, people must protect themselves from mosquitoes that bite during the day. This is nearly impossible for most Haitians, who don't have access to mosquito repellent. The Haitian government has begun mass fumigation efforts to kill mosquitoes and advised people to eliminate standing water where mosquitoes breed.

Excellent, friendly, helpful, and reasonable--everything you want when you realize you can't do something tekkie and need help. We're used to Windows desktop/notebooks but also use ipad & iphones. When we needed to transfer info from Apple to Wilndows without losing our only copy, Experamac did it for us. Sure we might have figured out the conversion, but not as quick as they could get it done. Highly recommend them--our 'go-to' for communication problem solving.Facebook User
My experience with experimac was awesome Sandra and Julia are awesome any boss should feel proud to have this young ladies the technician did and awesome job with my iPad air feels like a brand new one I highly recommend to anyone that wants a repair doneGoogle User

My experience was excellent. They found out the root of my problem with the macbook pro (which was the Battery),they didn"t charge me anything when they were trouble shooting the problem, which most companies do. I would recommend anyone to this place. They were super nice and didn't rush me out of there, also my son was playing xbox that they provide for all customers. Great place to go if you need help with your MACGoogle User
A woman named Sandra Martinez helped me and she was very professional and helped me with everything I needed. I will definitely be back to buy a computer.Google User

They sell, repair iMacs and macbook computer are very reasonable prices! Definitely have a customer for life!Google User
I attempted to replace my iPhone battery, resulting in a plaid pattern over my screen. I did research, but decided I might make it worse. Experimac saved me for a very reasonable price, while I waited. They have a great selection of used macs, iPhones, iPads....at great prices. Talking to them, I found they will have more products available, so can fill any Mac product need.Very honest- they could have suggested I just buy a new phone, but fixed mine, even showing me where the problem was. I highly recommend them- and am so glad to have an Experimac near me!Google User
Great experience dealing with Percy and the guys at his shop! Would highly recommend it to anyone with apple products.Facebook User
awesome service! great staff! Highly recommend!!!!Facebook User
I had my mac book pro serviced here. It works like new. I had taken it to Best Buy and they said I needed to get a new computer. They were so wrong. It would have been a costly mistake to replace my Mac book pro. Experimac Humble fixed it and I am amazed at it perfect performance. The price was great. The staff is very professional and welcoming. I highly recommend Experimac Humble.Google User
Great customer service from nice folks! They listen to what you will be doing and recommend the product you need.I LOVE MY AIR!Google User
Dropped of my iPad there to have the screen fixed and it was ready for me to pick it up the next day. It's been working great. They had some great prices on iMacs and Macbooks. I'll definitely support this business as the owner runs a great nonprofit with strong ties to the local community.Google User
A++++ rating for this business ... I can't begin to say how impressed I was with Experimac Humble ... Interesting story: The Apple Store in The Woodlands Mall folks told me that my 2009 17" MacBook Pro was dead, and I needed to bite the bullet and buy a new 15" Mac .... After one hour at Experimac, my computer was fixed, software reloaded. and runs perfect. These guys just saved me $2000 .. Wow! .. Thanks Kyle and Percy!!Google User
Came here distraught about my cracked iPhone 6plus screen and left so happy. Great folks working in here that made my experience the best ever.Yelp User
Percy and all the staff, where professional and knowledge, but best of all was the way I was treated. They really took the time to ask me questions about how I would be using my computer. No hard sell here. Honest, Integrity, and Neighborly are the best 3 words that I can think of about my experience. So very very glad to have them in town, filled a much needed gap for Mac sales, support and service in the area. Thank you for a wonderful experience!Facebook User
Fast service. Nice people. I recommend Experimac of Humble!Facebook User
I really enjoy the customer service great expectations call you when the items ready to pick up. Also help you out with any problems including MacBook Pro screen repairs. Will go again when I'm ready to trade my MacBookGoogle User
My MacBook needed professional help. Just by luck, I located the Experimac store in Humble Texas. The technicians were friendly and knowledgable. Most computer repair shops are proficient in working with Windows PCs but Macs are a sideline. I've even had techs question why I would even use a Mac. I've loved macs since 1985. Experimac is devoted to Apple products. My kind of folks. I encourage Mac users to go to this shop if you need Macintosh technical Assistance. They did a great job for me, and will for you also.Facebook User
Great service, knowledgeable staff, timely completion of my repair.Facebook User
iPhone 5 needed Home button replacement; would not respond at all. Took it to experimac in Humble. Jeff understood what was needed; said it would take 45 minutes. I left the iPhone with Jeff for the needed repair. Got a call about an hour later explaining that I needed a new battery as well. Picked up repaired phone. Very pleased with the repairs. My phone operates as it should; no surprises. Jeff explained what was done; showed me the old battery and explained the Home button replacement. Great service and reasonable price. Bringing my wife's iPhone5 to Jeff for battery replacement.Yelp User
I did an update on my IPAD and it locked up while trying to update the ITunes. It was frozen and nothing I did could open it up. I went to the Humble Experimac stire, Tech there said they would have to take it back to the original settings and I would probably lose pictures etc. I told them that it was no good to me the way it was and to go ahead. When I picked it up they had restored it and didn't lose a thing. Charged me around 25.00 to fix it. Great Service and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this store.Facebook User
Quick, reasonable and quality screen repair on my phone! Great customer service!Facebook User

This place really is as good as it gets when it comes to phone repair. I dropped my iPhone 6s Plus and completely shattered the entire front (it was bad). They fixed it in 30 minutes for the same price as it would have costs me to file an insurance claim (wait 2 or 3 days for a new phone and then have to ship my old phone back-- all while losing some of my data and having to start all over again with my apps etc). This place saved me the headache of the insurance claim plus it saved me from filing my 2nd claim this year (which would have resulted in the insurance company dropping me for a year. I'd run here next time I needed a repair!Facebook User

It was the best experience I had there. The sales associate was real nice and he made sure I had the right charger for my phone. I like how I was in and out of there in less than 5 minutes.

Excellent, friendly, helpful, and reasonable--was having trouble with my 6S plus, I couldn't take a call without placing the caller on speaker. Went in on a Saturday afternoon and the advised me that the mic was out. The tech had to change out the mic and charging port due to the fact they were one entity. Took them approximately 30mins to do the work. Was able to talk to callers without placing them on speaker. Got home 2 hours later and noticed I had to charge my phone. OncFacebook User
I had a similar repair done at Apple it ran 690 dollars. Here the same repair ran about 200. The service was quicker. I would suggest folks to go there.Google User
Percy always gets 5 stars from me. I go to Experimac for everything Apple related, and have always been extremely happy.Facebook User
Helpful staff and courteous. Everything was completed in a timely manner!Google User

While on holiday recently, I visited Big Island in Hawai'i to see the active volcanoes and lava flows. My interest was sparked by the exhibit in the Dynamic Earth exhibition at Melbourne Museum which includes a large sample of 'ropy lava' that visitors are invited to touch. The name describes the ribbed appearance of the lava that looks like a collection of ropes formed as the liquid lava cooled. The Hawaiian name for this form of lava is pahoehoe.

I visited the Kilauea volcano which is currently active. In the vast caldera is a crater holding a lava lake. Great quantities of volcanic gases rise from the lava lake and the orange glow from the molten lava is visible. It would be very dangerous to stand downwind of the vog (volcanic fog) as it contains large quantities of sulphur dioxide and other noxious gases.
Volcanic gases rising from Kilauea's lava lake.Image: Patrick GreeneSource: Patrick Greene
Around the caldera are steam vents, where lava flowing through underground tubes heats rainwater seeping though the ground and turns it into steam. Visitors can walk through a large extinct lava tube.
I explored three lava flows that originated in the Mauna Ulu vent on the flank of Kilauea. It is essential to wear sturdy footwear and the tread very carefully, for a fall onto the abrasive, glassy surface can result in serious injury. Each flow was different in character as the mix of lava and gases and form of each eruption varies. The third lava field that I visited produced the most impressive ropey lava, with a smooth shiny surface that glistened in the sunlight. The stream of viscous lava had hardened where it had cooled leaving vivid evidence of the way in which it had flowed from the Mauna Ulu vent. It was fascinating to walk to the edge of the flow to see where the lava had stopped, leaving the trees and other vegetation untouched. Also interesting to see were plants that had managed to gain a foothold on the lava as recolonisation is taking place thirty or forty years after the eruption.
Plants slowly recolonising lava fields.Image: Patrick GreeneSource: Patrick Greene
I was unable, on this occasion, to visit the active lava flows from another of Kilauea's vents that are flowing into the sea, constantly enlarging Big Island. That's a prospect for another visit!

What is in this article?:
- BlackBerry Maker Gears Up for a New Battle Against iPhone and Android
- Developer Toolkit
Developer Toolkit
To accompany these prototypes and harness what the company sees as a large public interest, RIM released an initial developer toolkit for native and HTML5 software development available in Beta, free for download from the companys website.
At this point, RIM remains optimistic that private developers will build a library of high-quality content and apps large enough and compelling enough to compete with the iPhone and Android market. With an expected release later this year, this is placing a lot of trust in the open market.
Even with the pressure the puts on the company, however, RIM remains hopeful and encouraged by early interest.
"The level of enthusiasm among developers for BlackBerry 10 is amazing," said Martyn Mallick, vice president, Global Alliances and Business Development at RIM. "The platform has been built to give developers the ability to create amazing content and a great user experience. The support and excitement we already see from developers is both rewarding and encouraging."
If this all works out as the company expects, it will mark the end of a period of sharp decline for the company that culminated in a disastrous fourth-quarter under the guidance of new CEO, Thorsten Heins.
On March 3, the company posted a net loss of $125 million for the fourth quarter, compared to a profit of $418 million the year before. This dragged down the fiscal 2012 profit to $1.16 billion from $3.4 billion in 2012.
According to a new report put out by the International Data Corporation (IDC), RIMs total smartphone shipments in 1Q 2012 totaled just 11.9 million, 50.8% less than last year. Its sales didnt make the top-five list for total mobile shipments for the same period.
Regardless of how this plays out, with RIM and Nokia (IW 1000/61) both going all-in on new devices, this will surely be an interesting year in the mobile industry.

On September 26, Dr. Tsenka Tsanova, the first ABF postdoctoral research fellow, started working in the Anthropology Department at The Field Museum. The tenure of her fellowship is one academic year (Fall 2011-Fall 2012). Dr. Tsanova is a native Bulgarian and a Paleolithic archaeologist specializing in prehistoric lithic technology. She obtained her Ph.D. in Prehistory at the University of Bordeaux 1, France, in 2006. She arrived from the Department of Evolution in the Max Planck Institute in Leipzig, Germany, where she held a postdoctoral fellowship in 2009-2010. Prior to this in 2008, Dr. Tsanova held a postdoctoral fellowship through a Fyssen Foundation Grant at the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology in Philadelphia.
The name of the project that she will complete during her fellowship is "The Emergence of Cultural Modernity. Middle to Upper Paleolithic Transition in the Eastern Balkans: Neanderthal-Modern Human Cultural Transactions." Her research concerns the emergence of cultural modernity, which presumably appeared with the arrival of the first modern humans in Europe and the extinction of Neanderthal populations about 50,000-35,000 years ago. Dr. Tsanova will examine and validate the context of The Field Museum's archaeological collections from various areas in Eurasia, which were dated to between 80,000-30,000 years ago. Furthermore, she will characterize the lithic assemblages and isolate the technological elements and economical behaviors of cultural modernity. This new study will be integrated and compared with her previous results from "transitional" collections from the Levant (Ksar Akil), Iranian Zagros mountains (Warwasi and Yafteh), and Eastern Balkans-Bulgaria (Bacho Kiro, Temnata and Kozarnika). Her research will be conducted under the supervision of Dr. William Parkinson, Associate Curator of Eurasian Anthropology in the Anthropology Department.

Among them is a rant about a "fascist plot" and the way the media make people swallow lies in small doses.
From a hospital bed in Las Vegas, Marion Barry tweeted an apology for his second rant against Asian immigrants in a month.
The rant quickly turned 100 percent politically incorrect when he began comparing African Americans to Jewish philanthropists.
David went on a bit of a Twitter rant this morning, listing a series of reasons Mitt Romney is struggling to connect with voters.
Here is a screengrab of the rant (Baldwin has since deleted his Twitter, again): Alec Baldwin has a good reason to be upset.
Never before in the country-side had such a rant been seen or heard tell of.
Is there any genuine conviction at the bottom of all this rant and raving?
Why you rave and rant about it as though it was actually my affections that were involved!
There was no symptom of raving or rant; no vulgarity or bad taste.
The tumultuous cry of the cascade, wont to rant in the ragged throat of Hellsfork, was now hushed to a repining monotone.
c.1600, "to be jovial and boisterous," also "to talk bombastically," from Dutch randten (earlier ranten) "talk foolishly, rave," of unknown origin (cf. German rantzen "to frolic, spring about"). Related: Ranted; ranting. Ranters "antinomian sect which arose in England c.1645" is attested from 1651; applied 1823 to early Methodists. A 1700 slang dictionary has rantipole "a rude wild Boy or Girl" (also as a verb and adjective); to ride rantipole meant "The woman uppermost in the amorous congress" [Grose].
"boisterous, empty declamation; fierce or high-sounding language without much meaning or dignity of thought; bombast; a ranting speech," 1640s, from rant (v.).

I couldn't care less at this point if the Reds win 94 games and win a wild card.
The team blew their playoffs v the Giants last season. They beat up on the Astros and Cubs last year. They have a bad record against good teams this year.
They probably need a couple more battle tested players.
Right now they have the look of a good regular season team but nothing more.
This may be good enough for some fans. I had hoped for more.

I think Votto would do well with an occasional day off. He is so intense that it may drain on him. I thought he needed a day off a while back when he had that one horrible defensive game (Cubs?)
"Since I've been with the Reds in 1989, we've never had a farm system this loaded," Bowden said. "If we were the New York Yankees and had unlimited dollars, we could have traded for Colon, (Jeff) Weaver, Rolen, (Cliff) Floyd, (Kenny) Rogers and Finley and gotten them all -- and still held onto our top five prospects. That's an amazing statement."

Vottomatic (06-22-2013)
Then ask yourself whether that regular season victory level was reflected in their playoff performance against a much better team.
Pretty obvious.

Ask The Paris Review
Satanic Seduction; Dufus CasanovasBy Lorin Stein
Last week's question on the topic of books you should read when young got me thinking: Can you provide a warning, or cautionary note, to attach to any books that may prove to be catastrophic when read at too young an age?
Thank you for your help.
All the best,
Daniel Davies
Fifteen years ago the late Roger Shattuck published a long attack on the writings of the Marquis de Sade, arguing that they were overrated as art and dangerous as pornography, especially to young readers. Being a young reader, I sneered at the time. But for all I know Shattuck was right. Kids are mean enough as it is, and too apt to treat each other like crash-test dummies, even without some lunatic marquis egging them on. I might also keep Larry Clark's books on a high shelf. Drugs are sexy, sure, but the kids don't need to know that. I sometimes wonder if I should have read Kafka Was the Rage in high school or the memoirs of Andy Warhol, or Edie, or quite so much Martin Amis. I'm not sure The Changing Light at Sandover was such a good idea, either. (Better precious than semiprecious, James Merrill liked to say—but surely there are limits.)
Do teenage boys still need to be warned off Kerouac? A friend of mine, currently in the second grade, has memorized The Complete Calvin and Hobbes and is in the habit of quoting it at length. It seems to me that this could turn into a problem. I remember the poet Peter Taylor complaining that he was taught To the Lighthouse in high school, when he was too young to know what was going on, or even to know that he didn't know. Maybe the best you can do is to read once in boredom and incomprehension, then go back in protosenility and read everything again.
I am juggling lovers, which is no easy task. What are, in your opinion, the great literary love triangles? Which books will guide me in my complicated amorous pursuits?
Here at The Paris Review, we are of the Liz Lemon school: the word lovers bums us out unless it comes between "meat" and "pizza." Anyway, how could we choose a favorite triangle? Pretty much every great novel contains one. That said, I'd probably vote for the ur-triangle of Satan, Adam, and Eve in Paradise Lost. In Book Four, Satan stands there and watches Adam and Eve having paradisical sex, until he can't stand it anymore and turns away—like Warhol, running out of the room during a porn shoot: "I'm going to have an organza!" (See "cautionary note," above.) That's when Satan cooks up the plan to seduce Eve and ruin things in Eden.
What's great about the passage—what makes Satan Satan—is the argument that he's going to do all of this for Adam and Eve's own good:
… Aside the Devil turnd
For envie, yet with jealous leer maligne
Ey'd them askance, and to himself thus plaind [i.e. complained].
Sight hateful, sight tormenting! thus these two
Imparadis't in one anothers arms
The happier Eden, shall enjoy thir fill
Of bliss on bliss, while I to Hell am thrust,
Where neither joy nor love, but fierce desire,
Among our other torments not the least,
Still unfulfill'd with pain of longing pines;
Yet let me not forget what I have gain'd
From thir own mouths; all is not theirs it seems:
One fatal Tree there stands of Knowledge call'd,
Forbidden them to taste: Knowledge forbidd'n?
Suspicious, reasonless. Why should thir Lord
Envie them that? can it be sin to know,
Can it be death? and do they onely stand
By Ignorance, is that thir happie state,
The proof of thir obedience and thir faith?
O fair foundation laid whereon to build
Thir ruine! Hence I will excite thir minds
With more desire to know, and to reject
Envious commands, invented with designe
To keep them low whom knowledge might exalt
Equal with Gods …
If you ask me, that comes pretty close to a triangulator's credo. Who in a bad mood hasn't suspected that so-called happy couples "stand/By ignorance"? And who hasn't been seduced by "more desire to know, and to reject / Envious commands"? Read More

Intro to L&I's Workers' Comp Insurance
What is workers' compensation (industrial insurance)?
Workers' compensation provides no-fault industrial insurance coverage for most employers and workers in Washington State.
Benefits include medical treatment for workers who are injured in the course of their employment or develop an occupational disease as a result of their work activities.
Workers who are unable to work due to accepted conditions related to an industrial injury or occupational disease may be eligible for partial wage replacement benefits.
What workers' compensation pays for
- Approved medical, hospital and related services due to workplace injuries.
- Compensation for those who are temporarily unable to work full-time.
Employers must provide coverage for their employees. In return, employers normally cannot be sued for damages when a work-related injury or illness occurs.
Employers purchase coverage through L&I
The agency manages claims and pays benefits out of an insurance pool called the Washington State Fund.
The fund is financed by premiums paid by employers and employees.
Open a workers comp account
If you plan to hire employees in Washington, you'll need to open a workers' comp account with L&I. Learn how.
Optional owner coverage
Owners of sole proprietorships and other businesses without employees are not required to have workers' compensation insurance. However, they may choose to purchase it from L&I to cover their own medical expenses if they are injured on the job. Call 360‑902‑4817 for more information. Request an Application for Elective Coverage for Industrial Insurance.
The Employers' Guide to Workers' Compensation Insurance in Washington State (F101‑002‑000) is a general guide that explains Washington State's workers' compensation insurance program.
How to file and pay workers' comp (industrial) insurance

Why is Jones and Silva the only one who makes sense?
Theoretically they're the exact same fight just at different weights... If silva fought GSP then he'd get wrestle fucked, if silva fought Jones he'd get wrestle fucked.
If GSP stands he'll get done, if Jones stands personally I think he'll get done a la Machida picking him apart in the first round of their fight.
It's the same fight regardless of who's in it. I'd rather see Silva vs GSP.
EDIT - Also which is the only one being talked about? Silva vs Jones isn't.

The walkway south of Pauley Pavilion sprouted with tents Tuesday, an early oddity forced by the scheduling of a mid-week game.
Students lined up to get prime seats to the only UCLA basketball action this week, a home tipoff against USC at 7 p.m. today.
In the spirit of promotion, the school has deemed this matchup a "Blue Out" - an extra reminder that all fans should, well, fill the stands with the team's colors.
The players, too, are decked out in bright, all-blue alternates - a rather stark deviation from the classic white home jerseys.
As to how the freshmen will handle the hype?
"They already know it's going to be an intense game," junior forward David Wear said. "They saw how it was against Arizona. That's a huge game for us each year too, and we were there (on the road). They handled it really well.
"They know what's at stake, what the crosstown rivalry means. This will make (the Trojans') whole season if they beat us."
The Trojans (8-13, 3-5) have one of the conference's worst offenses and are no better than middling on defense, but they've shown renewed energy under interim coach Bob Cantu. Two of their past three losses have been by no more than five points.
Against UCLA (16-5, 6-2), USC likely will deploy its two 7-footers, Dewayne Dedmon - if he's healthy - and Omar Oraby with the hopes of replicating some of ASU's success this past weekend. The Sun Devils blocked 10 shots against the Bruins, with 7-foot-2 center Jordan Bachynski accounting for six.
"If we get in the paint, we have to shot fake because they're going to try to block our shots if they watched the last tape," freshman guard Jordan Adams said. "We gave up a lot of blocked shots. Just little ball fakes."
Questionable health
UCLA's leading scorer Shabazz Muhammad fell ill with flu-like symptoms Monday night and was kept out of practice Tuesday. Head coach Ben Howland said the freshman's fever topped 101 degrees, but most of his teammates haven't even considered the possibility of him sitting.
"He's a competitor," Wear said. "We're all pretty sure he'll end up playing. Anytime you're playing USC, anybody's gonna want to - even if you're feeling sick - anyone's gonna want to tough it out."
Howland didn't want to commit to his return but hinted Muhammad would find a way to suit up.
"We'll see how he feels tomorrow," Howland said Tuesday. "I think it's too early to say, whether or not he'll play or how he'll do. But he's a tough kid.
"You see players raise their level sometimes when they feel a little under the weather."
Forward Travis Wear, who sat out UCLA's loss to Arizona State on Saturday with a concussion, participated in non-contact drills in practice. Howland expects him to be ready against USC but is waiting on medical clearance.
Miller's jersey
Reggie Miller's No. 31 jersey will be retired at halftime, the second of three such ceremonies this season. Miller, second on the NBA's all-time 3-point field goals list, was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in September and had his jersey retired by the Indiana Pacers in 2006.
Playing under Walt Hazzard, Miller finished his UCLA career (1984-87) with 2,095 career points - second in school history behind Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
"It's exciting," Howland said. "His sister went to USC. It's got all the L.A. media here tomorrow. I go back and look at his stats. He's arguably the best shooter to play the game."

Search for SW PDX hit and run driver is over
*4pm UPDATE: The driver has turned herself in to Portland Police. Tune in to KEX now for the latest on this developing story.
The Portland Police Bureau, in cooperation with Crime Stoppers of Oregon, is asking for the public's help in identifying a hit and run suspect who severely injured a bicyclist in Southwest Portland.
On Friday August 16, 2013, at approximately 12:50 a.m., Central Precinct officers responded to Southwest Barbur Boulevard, just North of the Capitol Highway ramp on the report of a bicyclist that had been hit by a vehicle which left the scene.
Officers and medical personnel arrived and contacted the victim, 20-year-old Henry Schmidt, who was suffering from serious but not life-threatening injuries. Schmidt did not know what happened and was unable to provide officers with any vehicle information.
Officers located and recovered evidence at the scene from an unknown year, make or model Subaru. Additional evidence was collected a few days later that, upon further investigation, appears to belong to a black 2011 to 2012 Subaru Legacy 25i sedan, which investigators believe was involved in the hit and run.
Based on the investigation, officers believe that the suspect vehicle will have damage to the right-front headlight assembly, bumper, and missing the passenger-side mirror. The vehicle may also have windshield damage on the passenger side.
At this point in the investigation, there is no video of the crash nor have any eyewitnesses come forward with information.
Crime Stoppers is offering a cash reward of up to $1,000 for information, reported to Crime Stoppers, that leads to an arrest in this case, or any unsolved felony, and you can remain anonymous.
Leave a Crime Stoppers tip online at http://crimestoppersoforegon.com/submit_online_tip.php, text CRIMES (274637) and in the subject line put 823HELP, followed by your tip, or call 503-823-HELP (4357) and leave your tip information.

"I have interviews coming up. What's the best way for me to prepare?"
– Amina Yamusah '13
Great question, Amina! I am so glad that you asked this question. Preparing for interviews is an absolute must! You never want to go into an interview unprepared. Interviewers will pick up on this and will certainly not be impressed. Even the most qualified job applicants can be turned down because of their lack of preparedness for what the interview will entail. Here are some important steps that you can take so that you will be adequately prepared and feel confident on the day of your interview!
Research the organization. You should walk into an interview with some basic knowledge of what the organization does, how well it is doing, and its standing within the industry. Look for interesting facts about the company as well current news, recent press releases, and stock trends. It will be beneficial for you to find out about the company's newest products, projects or services. I also recommend connecting with the company via Facebook and Twitter. This is an easy way to find out how the organization is engaging with the public. After you do this, identify two key facts you can bring up during the interview and at least two questions you have for the company. Make sure to write them down on a piece of paper that you can bring into the interview. Don't try to memorize them (you may be nervous and forget all the cool stuff you learned during your research). Finally, you should know why you want to work for the organization you are interviewing for. Many interviews often start with the question "Why do you want to work here?" Take some time to synthesize all that you have learned about the company. What interests you the most? Create a two- liner that encapsulates how your skills, talents, and experience will ultimately serve as a future asset to the organization.
Be prepared to talk about yourself. Employers want to know about you–as a person! Take a few moments to jot down information about your education, work experience, and key strengths that really make you unique. When talking about your education, highlight some of your academic experiences, mention memberships, extracurricular activities, and leadership roles you might have held. Talk about a topic that you are passionate about. Show how your experience thus far has helped you grow this passion. Remember to let your personality shine through!
Know how you fit in. Employers are looking for the best fit for their organizations. Some of the ways that you can find out how your personal qualities might align with that of the company you are interviewing for is by evaluating the employer's mission statement. Think of personal qualities in yourself that match their company values. Make a list of three personality traits that you will be sure to highlight in the interview. Oftentimes, interviewers ask interviewees how they will be an asset to the organization. If you already have a list, you'll be one step ahead.
Match skills with job description. Make sure to review the job description for the position you are applying for before you interview. Reflect on the desired knowledge, skills, and abilities that the employer is looking for you. Comb your resume and past experience for examples that show how you are qualified for the position. An easy way to do this is by creating a list of employer requirements, followed by a "prove- it" statement that highlights your unique selling points for each employer requirement. Make sure these examples are specific. Also, you might want to prepare stories that showcase how you handled a unique situation, problem, or objective. Be sure to include the actions you took to resolve this problem and the results accomplished. Accomplishments should be quantified whenever possible. Also, remember to note any special recognition or award you received because of your work!
Set up a mock interview. The career counselors at Career Services are a great resource for you to practice all of the above. Our counselors will meet with you and conduct a "mock" interview. Afterwards, they will give you feedback and advice on what steps you can take to sharpen your interview skills. Make sure you set up an appointment with one of our counselors, if you haven't already.
I hope you find this information useful, Amina. Good luck with your upcoming interviews!

Read Southern California rents rise as mortgage qualifying gets tougher
The Southland's housing market is heating up as prices have popped to their highest level in six years, new home sales are increasing and foreclosure activity is on the wane, according to reports released Tuesday.
In the Los Angeles metro area, home prices increased 10.2 percent in December from a year earlier, according to the S&P Case Schiller Home Price index.
That L.A. gain was substantially stronger than the nation's progress, a 6.8 percent average gain for 20 major markets, such as Atlanta, Minneapolis and Seattle, tracked by the index.
"That really means for many people that your home appreciated in value over the past year and that is a welcome sign," said Robert Kleinhenz, chief economist at the Kyser Center for Economic Research in Los Angeles.
It is likely evidence that the nation's housing market won't get hit with a double dip in prices and the recovery from the Great Recession has traction.
"It was clear in the data that there was not going to be another (price) leg down," said Craig Lazzara, senior director at S&P Dow Jones Indices. "And data on housing starts and permits seem to confirm that the housing market is in pretty good shape."
Prices are rising in response to declining sales of less expensive distressed properties and more sales of higher priced properties.
Case Schiller's report was one of three released on Tuesday that showed the market moving upward.
New home sales spiked in January by 16 percent nationally and foreclosures in Los Angeles and the Inland Empire declined.
It adds up to good news for insurance agent Julian Tu, owner of an Allstate office in Woodland Hills. His offer to buy a Warner Center town house for $264,000 in a short sale, made last November, was just accepted by the bank and is in escrow.
He'll already have some equity when the deal closes in about 30 days. A small unit in the same complex has a sale pending at $312,000, he said.
"I think mine is probably worth $320,000 now. I think it's great. I bought low and got a 3.8 percent for a nonowner occupied unit," Tu said.
Sales of new homes began picking up early last year and that momentum is continuing, said Shawn Evenhaim, president and founder of Canoga Park- based California Home Builders.
His company does both home and condominium projects. Waiting lists are now the norm.
"We sold out a project of 57 homes last year and we had waiting lists," he said. "We were able to sell them in nine months and did increase prices between phase one and four. They went up 10 percent."
His company currently has 551 units in the planning stages or under construction in the San Fernando Valley. And signs announcing a new project attract lots of attention.
"There is big demand. We have people calling before we go into construction," Evenhaim said.
That trend is evident in the resale market because inventory is at or near record low levels.
Tom Adams of Century 21 Adams & Barnes in Monrovia and Glendora said competition for homes has become fierce.
"The trend right now is if a home is priced anywhere close to being competitive you get so many offers you almost don't know what to do with them," he said. "There was a house in West Covina that was listed at $350,000 and we had 42 offers. Fifteen of those were all-cash offers and most of the others were over what they were asking for the home."
Confidence in the market seems to be growing, too.
Jim Mitchell, who owns BlackHorseRealty.biz Rancho Palos Verdes, said he has noticed a general sense of optimism about the housing market.
"I haven't talked to anybody in quite awhile who thinks otherwise," said Mitchell, who covers the South Bay. "As prices rise, it takes pressure off the people who are upside down and it enables people to sell where perhaps they couldn't before."
That's due in large part to foreclosure activity that is now well under record levels of the recession.
Irvine-based CoreLogic said the downward trend continued in December.
In the Los Angeles metro area during December, 1.63 percent of outstanding mortgages were in foreclosure, down from 2.54 percent a year earlier. The number of homeowners getting in trouble also dropped. The number of mortgages 90 plus days late fell to 5.21 percent from 7.23 percent in December 2011.
The Inland Empire recorded bigger drops.
The number of mortgages in foreclosure dropped to 2.14 percent in December from 3.62 percent a year earlier and the percentage of delinquent loans fell to 7 percent from 10.08 percent, the company said.
Staff Writers Kevin Smith and Muhammed El-Hasan contributed to this report.

2nd Facility Turns Down Brain-Dead Teen at 11th Hour
(NEWSER) – The clock is ticking for Jahi McMath, with Children's Hospital Oakland yesterday confirming it will shut off her ventilator at 5pm today unless ordered otherwise, reports the San Francisco Chronicle. Her family continues to scramble to find a facility willing to take the brain-dead 13-year-old, after yesterday learning that the Los Angeles-area option they were banking on backed out (this after the first facility changed its mind amid a crush of press), reports the San Jose Mercury News. Jahi's lawyer says there's one "last, last hope": an unnamed New York hospital.

George B Underwood, AAC, B-25 Mitchells in the MTO
1945 — Corsica
Goerge B Underwood was born in the State of New York 24 March, 1923. During WW II George was a S/Sgt Gunner and Up-THar ! in the Top-Turret... in the 57th Bomb Wing, the 310th Bomb Group and the 381st Bomb Squadron on Corsica in 1944.
I was a Staff Sergeant who flew 68 combat missions over Italy from January to July 1944 assigned to the 310th Bombardment Group, 381st Bombardment Squadron. I was not wounded, save for a scratch on my nose from flying Plexiglas and a hit on the shin by a piece of flak, nor was any member of the crew given the Purple Heart. I received four Air Medals for missions I scarcely recall except for one or two. Our aircraft was hit many times by flak and we had a couple of crash landings. Aside from that, nothing extraordinary happened. Out of the original six- crewmembers there are only two of us left. I was always "the kid" of the crew, and the "older guys" took pretty good care of me.
Aerial gunnery school in Laredo, Texas proved to be an exciting follow up after Armament School at Buckley Field just north of Denver, Colorado. I was closing in on my way to combat at last. The North American "Texan" AT-6s used for gunnery training created their share of noise while taking off and landing on the airfield near our barracks. At times I could even hear the distant yammer of machine guns being fired.
We fired all kinds of weapons. . Continue;

In the last few days in Belgium, PwC has observed a large number of transfer pricing audits being initiated. The Belgian tax administration appears to be shifting gears on the transfer pricing front in order to raise revenues and prevent erosion of the tax base. Due to the lack of resources within the central group of experienced transfer pricing auditors, it has been decided to expand the team with regional tax inspectors in order to increase transfer pricing scrutiny.
Multiple taxpayers have recently received lengthy and in-depth questionnaires on their transfer pricing policy. It is in principle mandatory to reply to this request for information within one month. These questionnaires are sent out as the start of a thorough transfer pricing audit. It is expected that the number and detail of transfer pricing audits will increase dramatically over the next month and it will be of vital importance for taxpayers to proactively assess how well they are prepared for such audits.

Anthropology is the study of people and their culture and includes four different branches: archaeological, biological, cultural, and linguistic. Archaeology is one of the four branches of anthropology and consists of several subtypes. The word archaeology comes from two Greek words, archaia, which means ancient things and logos, which means theory or science, meaning archaeology is the study of all ancient things that were made or changed by humans. Archaeology in Oklahoma is an integral part of its history. There have been eight-thousand year old artifacts found in many parts of the state. Archaeology helps to answer some questions about the history of the United States. [It is important to understand that paleontology is the study of prehistoric animal bones and fossils, like mammoths and dinosaurs. This is NOT archaeology.]
This webpage allows you to learn more about archaeology in Oklahoma. First, read the "Background pages" for more information. Then, look at the "Important Sites" in Oklahoma page to learn more about different influential sites. The activities section has coloring sheets, games, and other activities which can be done as part of a group or on your own.

Brevard, N.C. - The poll is closed and the fans have spoken: The BC volleyball team's victory on November 5th over Tusculum College to earn Brevard College's first slot in a South Atlantic Conference Tournament was voted as being the best moment in the 2008 fall sports season. The volleyball team received 57 of the 138 votes cast by visitors this past week, or 41.3% of the vote, narrowly defeating the men's soccer team's thrilling 2-1 overtime victory over Lincoln Memorial University on October 24th.
Looking back at the game: In the opening set, the Tornados stayed close with the Lady Pioneers as they never trailed by more than four points throughout the set. With the score tied up at 18-18, a kill by Tusculum's Carly Swisher gave the Lady Pioneers the lead for good, as Tusculum traded points back and forth with the Tornados before winning the match 26-24 on a service ace by Heather MacArthur.
The Tornados took their first lead at 9-8 in the second set on an attack error by Tusculum. Senior setter Jami Perry pushed BC's lead to two points at 10-8 on a kill of her own, forcing Tusculum to call a timeout.
Out of the timeout, Tusculum scored back-to-back points to knot the score back up at 10-10. Neither team would pull away as they traded points back-and-forth until a service ace by Tusculum's Erika Garcia gave the Lady Pioneers the advantage at 17-15.
Tusculum refused to give up the lead, outscoring BC 8-3 down the stretch to pick up the 25-18 set win and take a 2-0 advantage in the match.
With their backs against the walls the Tornados showed their toughness in the final three sets to storm back for the win.
In the third set, BC took an early 4-3 lead on a service ace by junior Cori Emory and a kill by junior middle hitter Brooke Seaman only to have Tusculum battle back to tie the score up at 11-11 on a BC attack error.
However, BC refused to roll over and instead responded with a 4-0 run to pull ahead of the Lady Pioneers 15-11. The Tornados would hold off Tusculum over the next few points and pushed their lead to as high as five points at 19-14 on a Perry service to force Tusculum to call a timeout.
BC finished off the Lady Pioneers down the stretch scoring the last six points of the set to pull away with the 25-15 win and force a fourth set.
Riding a momentum wave from the conclusion of the third set, BC jumped out to an 11-6 lead on a kill by junior outside hitter Megan Street. Tusculum answered the early offensive surge of the Tornados with a 9-6 run to pull within two points of the home team at 17-15. Yet that is as close as the Lady Pioneers would get, as BC continued to make big plays down the stretch to push their lead out to five at 24-19 with set point looming.
Tusculum did not give in, scoring the next two points to add pressure to the Tornados making the score 24-21. However, junior Chelsey Trojan put the set away with a kill on the next point to give BC the 25-21 win and knot the score up at 2-2 heading into the fifth and final set.
Tusculum showed why the have won 20 matches thus far in 2008 in the final set, as the Lady Pioneers jumped out to an early 3-0 lead on BC. However, the resilient Tornado squad would not give up and battled back to take a 7-5 lead on a Tusculum attack error and a Seaman kill, forcing Tusculum to call a timeout.
Out of the timeout, Brevard traded points with Tusculum holding on to a 10-9 lead when Coach Skeffington called a timeout.
BC responded with a kill by Trojan to go up 11-9, which started a trend in which the two teams traded points back-and-forth until a kill by Tusculum's Swisher cut the Tornados lead to one at 14-13. On the very next point, the Tornados made history as freshman Chelsea Larsen pounded the ball from the left side of the net into the middle of the court on Tusculum's side to give BC the 3-2 win, earning them a spot in their first ever SAC Championship Tournament.

As an individual who is deeply concerned about the humane treatment and care of pets, I must admit it angers me greatly to see an animal tied to a short chain and not given any consideration during this time of extremely cold and or rainy weather.
Unfortunately, from what I understand, this area does not have an organization set up to investigate what I would consider inhumane and/or abusive treatment to such animals.

Celebrity Beauty Secrets
My life with Sharon Stone: Dior's VP of PR shares her beauty secrets
-Lois Joy Johnson
Your best girlfriends are the lifelong chums who keep you in line and keep you sane. They're the straight shooters who tell you your highlights are off, your skin is begging for a facial and "you really do need a bodyshaper under that." In my case, I have one who passes along celebrity beauty secrets.
She is my friend Dianne Vavra, vice president of public relations for Dior Beauty, who personally stuffed me into a strapless gold Dior couture number and took charge of my hair and makeup when I was presented with the Skin Cancer Foundation Award last fall. The fact that she hangs out with Sharon Stone and Charlize Theron a lot hasn't changed Dianne one bit–just ask her husband, Michael, or kids Eve and Thomas, who treat her like the suburban mom she actually is.
I asked Dianne to share her top ten celebrity beauty secrets, the ones she's picked up during her star-studded workdays, exclusively for all you Bettys:
1. Wear sunscreen on your chest and hands–not just your face. I think I can always tell someone's age by looking at the sun damage on their chest. I think my own gives away my age, and I wish someone had told me this at 18.
2. To make the whites of your eyes really pop, use the redness relief eyedrops by Rohto. Charlize Theron's makeup artist, Shane Paish, turned me on to these. No matter how little sleep you've had, if your allergies are acting up, or your man is being a jerk and you're upset, these drops make you look fresh, awake and ready for anything.
3. Try Latisse, the new prescription eyelash growth product (you need an Rx from the derm) for five weeks. I swear I need to trim them. It's crazy. I also put a little bit on the spot where my brows refused to grow, and voila, they're perfect!
4. Never leave home without mascara. I swear by DiorShow brown for day and black for night. It's the one makeup essential you need.
5. Make an eyelash curler your best friend. It's like opening the curtain for the eye…do it every morning before mascara.
6. If your nail polish chips, remove it immediately. Better to go bare than chipped–there's nothing worse. A former boss who thought I was too messy once said, "Cluttered desk equals cluttered mind." From that day on, I've organized files for everything. Chipped polish reminds me of this saying for some reason–it says something negative about you. I'm not sure exactly why or what. It just does.
7. Remember to exfoliate a couple or times a week–face and body. I have this thing that I think men wrinkle less because they shave often and therefore exfoliate without even knowing.
8. Drink a glass of water while you do your hair and makeup. This way if you forget during the day, at least you start out your day hydrated.
9. I think teeth whitening is a great beauty investment. Right now, dentists are offering deals on Zoom and BriteSmile has specials. Crest WhiteStrips are great too! Even if you have crooked teeth like me, if you whiten them, you just smile more and there's nothing more beautiful than a genuine smile.
10. Wear spiritual jewelry–it's so calming and sends good things your way. Sharon Stone hooked me up with L.A. jewelry designer Catherine Michiels, and now we're both fans of the silk and bead bracelets with mystical spiritual charms that can be worn stacked or singly (check out Catherine Michiels at saksfifthavenue.com).
Everyone in Hollywood wears them–you don't remove them to shower or swim either!
Incorporate some of these celebrity beauty secrets and style tips into your routine to look–and feel–your best.

One I've only heard of recently. Traditionally this refers to a collection of literary passages, used perhaps as an aid in learning a subject. Of Greek derivation, from khrestos, useful, and mathein, to know
For the modern developer this is a rewriting of code with the same purpose in a number of different languages, used to demonstrate syntactical differences - the Rosetta code site demonstrates this principle. I understand this is perhaps a little niche, however some may find the idea and examples as fascinating as I do?

Before we read any further, it is important for us to note that excess of everything is bad and marijuana use is no exception. If you are using marijuana legally and as per medical advice, you will not experience harsh side effects but if you abuse marijuana, knowingly or unknowingly, you will experience marijuana side effects.
Marijuana's Effect On The Brain
THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) may change the way in which sensory information gets into and is processed by the component (hippocampus) of the brain's limbic system that is crucial for learning, memory, and the integration of sensory experiences with emotions and motivations. Recent investigations have suggested that THC may suppress activity of the nerve fibers in the hippocampus; however, the studies are inconclusive.
Long Term Effects Of Marijuana
Since marijuana may affect temporary decision-making and judgment, its long term use can lead to risky behavior. Marijuana users are prone to getting lung infections like pneumonia and having more chest colds than non-users.
The list of long term effects of marijuana could include headache, tremor, altered body temperature, hallucinations, confusion, paranoia, altered libido, derealization, and depersonalization.
Short Term Effects Of Marijuana
The short term effects of marijuana include distorted perception, loss of coordination, anxiety, increased heart rate, and problems with memory and learning; all of the side effects are temporary in nature. Marijuana users may also experience dry mouth and throat when used in the short-term.
The THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) compound in marijuana is carried to the brain via the bloodstream when abused. THC then binds with the cannabinoid receptors of the nerve cells and alters activities of the neurons, which means that functions of brain like sensation of pleasure, perception, and concentration power are negatively affected.
Short term effects of marijuana also include increased sensory perceptions besides distorted image of self and time perception. Short-term use of marijuana also leads to a negative effect on the readiness to respond, motivation, ability to identify, and identify things. In addition to that, marijuana use can make driving risky as THC affects function of the cerebellum (part of the brain) that controls coordination and balance. Marijuana use also affects the judgment ability and reaction time of users and this could mean inability to take timely decisions or taking decisions in haste.

Samsung Electronics has announced today its new near field communications (NFC) chip with embedded flash memory for next-generation smartphones. Mass production is slated for the first quarter of 2011.
The new Samsung NFC chip adopts flash for the embedded memory which allows device designers to easily to upgrade software or firmware. Samsung also provides a software protocol stack and technology services for antenna design and tuning. Through such features and support, designers can reduce their product's time-to-market, the vendor said.
Samsung claimed it developed this NFC chip to have minimal power consumption in both active and stand-by mode. With a 20% decrease in power consumption, Samsung's NFC chip remains active for mobile payment even without battery power.
NFC is a short-range (up to 10cm or four inches), high frequency wireless communication technology which allows devices such as smartphones to collect or transmit data to another NFC-enabled device without manual configuration to identify devices. In addition, NFC chip can play a role as a contactless smartcard in use for public transportation payments for bus and subway fares and mobile banking payments. It can also read RFID tags in retail stores or on outdoor billboards for convenient on-the-spot data access.

About the Book
It is 1810, and in Napoleon's determination to conquer Portugal—and push the British back to the sea—he sends his largest army yet across the Spanish frontier. But between the Portuguese border and Napoleon's seemingly certain victory are twoobstacles—a wasted land, stripped of food by Wellington's orders, and Captain Richard Sharpe.
But Sharpe is in trouble. The captain of the Light Company is threatened from inside and out: First by an incompetent British officer, who by virtue of family connections is temporarily given Sharpe's command. An even greater danger is posed by two corrupt Portuguese brothers—Major Ferreira, a high-ranking officer in the army of Portugal, and his brother, nicknamed "Ferragus" (after a legen-dary Portuguese giant), who makes no claims to respectability, preferring instead to rule by crude physical strength and pure intimidation. Together the brothers have developed a devious plot to ingratiate themselves with the French invaders who are threatening to become Portugal's new rulers.
Sharpe's interference in the first stage of their plan earns the undying enmity of the brothers. Ferragus vows revenge and plots a merciless trap that seems certain to kill Sharpe and his intimates—battle-tested ally Sergeant Harper, the Portuguese officer Jorge Vicente, and a prickly but lovely English governess. As the city of Coimbra is burned and pillaged, Sharpe and his companions plot a daring escape, ensuring that Ferragus will follow on toward Lisbon, into the jaws of a snare laid by Wellington—the massive lines of Torres Vedras, a daring and ingenious last stand against the invaders. There, beneath the British guns, Sharpe is reunited with his shattered but grateful company, and meets his enemies in a thrilling and decisive fight.
Sharpe's Escape emphatically reaffirms Bernard Cornwell's status as "perhaps the greatest writer of historical adventure novels today" (Washington Post); its climactic battle scenes and evocative re-creation of history sweep the reader off the page and into the action and drama of nineteenth-century warfare.

The Arts and Crafts movement rejected the use of precious metals and gems in favor of more "earthy" materials. In reaction to the overwhelming impact of industrialization on everyday life, these artists felt a need to return to more of a hands-on approach akin to the handmade aesthetic of the craftsman. The organic form of nature was often the subject and the construction of the item tended more towards the simple or even handmade. Decoration was at a minimum and the use of enamel became one the mainstays of the Movement.
Here uncomplicated form fashioned from simple materials personifies the artistic intention using sterling silver and a blister pearl with multicolored enameling. Intense enamel hues of vivid blue, rose and emerald green caress classic lines and organic forms accented with a centered large oval blister pearl and silver drop appointed with green enamel.
Stylized foliate elements are left to the imagination. The silver bale is crafted with an opening for uncomplicated placement of a chain. The pendant is accompanied by a sterling silver chain.

Net you will want the drivers. The ones i used were the RA Link Enhanced drivers. Since they are the enhanced drivers, you can capture WPA handshakes with these.Code:BT ~ / wget http://www.offensive-security.com/kernel.lzm BT ~ / lzm2dir kernel.lzm /
Now unplug and plug back in your wireless card. Once you have done that you can connect to your wireless with the following command:Code:BT ~ / wget homepages.tu-darmstadt.de/~p_larbig/wlan/rt73-k2wrlz-3.0.2.tar.bz2 BT ~ / modprobe -r rt73 BT ~ / tar -xf rt73-k2wrlz-3.0.2.tar.bz2 BT ~ / cd rt73-k2wrlz-3.0.2 BT ~ / cd Module/ BT ~ / make BT ~ / make install BT ~ / modinfo rt73 (that is to check if they were installed) BT ~ / modprobe rt73
Hope this has been a help and help clean up those "how do i do this for RT73" threads.Code:BT ~ / iwconfig rausb0 mode managed "wirelessname" yourpassword

default context, direction rtl, unicode-bidi override
Test passes if characters are in the same order.
Assertion: In the default context, if unicode-bidi:bidi-override and direction:rtl are applied to an inline element containing mixed direction text, the characters in that element will be displayed in reverse backing-store order from left to right.
= means you should check that the test and reference graphic look the same, except for font differences and cursive joining behavior.
