PHOENIX (AP) - With cactus and strip malls obstructing the views at times, visitors could easily write Phoenix off as a place where water and culture are scarce. But this metropolis - which includes upscale Scottsdale and college town Tempe - is a nature lover's oasis with pristine peaks and the vast Sonoran desert.
LAS VEGAS (AP) - Tourists will soon have a new way to see the lights of Las Vegas: By being spit out of the mouth of an 11-story slot machine and zinged down a five-block zip line past some of the city's oldest casinos.
VAIL, Colo. (AP) - Rosana Faessler stops by the hostess stand to check on reservations, then makes her way into the dining room to chat with a couple of the regular guests. After a few minutes, she wanders to the breakfast buffet to make sure everything's clean and full, then straightens a picture before heading back out to the dining room.
LOS ANGELES (AP) - There was a time when old English sheepdogs dominated television screens and newspaper comic strips. Now it's hard to find one beyond a dog show.

SANTA BARBARA - If there is a more beautiful city in California than Santa Barbara, we have yet to find it. Broad beaches are set against lush vegetation and a hilly landscape that is nestled just in front of the picturesque Santa Ynez Mountains. An abundance of Spanish architecture completes a panorama that could just as well be a beautiful city on the Mediterranean.
TRACY – When it comes to looking at a new car, the 2013 Sentra might be considered a solid bet.
The 2013 Volvo T6 R-Design is the top-end halo sedan with all-wheel drive "instant traction." And instant traction is good for this 325-horsepower, turbocharged inline six-cylinder with a healthy 345 foot-pounds of torque that pours out briskly from 3,000 to 3,600 rpm. Volvo says that translates to 0-60 mph in 5.8 seconds.
If bakeries and beer gardens are high on your list of vacation amenities, you couldn't do better than a visit to Solvang, the Danish-inspired theme community just a half-hour drive from Santa Barbara. Of course there is much more, but food is a great place to start.
NEW YORK (AP) - Tablets are at the top of many wish lists this holiday season. But what to get? The choice used to be pretty limited, with the iPad dominating the latecomers. But this year, the field is more even, as tablets from Apple's competitors have matured. In addition, Google and Microsoft are diving in with their own tablets, providing more choice.
WASHINGTON (AP) - The government should require automakers to make the latest collision prevention technologies standard equipment on all new cars and trucks, a move that could reduce fatal highway accidents by more than half, federal accident investigators said Wednesday.

Israel: We're Preparing for Ground Invasion
(NEWSER) – In what Reuters is calling the "worst outbreak of violence along the Gaza frontier since an eight-day war in 2012," the Israeli military today struck at least 50 sites in the Gaza Strip by air and sea—and mobilized 1,500 reservists for a potential ground invasion, though the military said such an invasion was not imminent. Still, an Israeli army rep emphasized, "indeed we are preparing." To that end, the Israeli government today gave the military the OK to mobilize as many as 40,000 additional reservists. The military says it has no immediate plans to actually do so, but described the order as a contingency if "Operation Protective Edge" needs to be expanded, reports the AP.

As pollen and spores are produced in large numbers and dispersed over large areas by wind and water, their fossils are recoverable in statistically significant assemblages in a wide variety of sedimentary rocks. Moreover, because pollen and spores are highly resistant to decay and physical alteration, they can be studied in much the same way as the components of living plants. Identification of pollen and spore microfossils has greatly aided delineation of the geographical distribution of many plant groups from early Cambrian time (590542,000,000 years ago) to the present.
Important, too, is the fact that the evolutionary sequence of organisms based on the large fossil remains of plants in sedimentary rocks is recorded by the sequence of plant microfossils as well. Such microfossils are thus useful in determining geologic age and are especially important in sediments devoid of large fossils. Because of their abundance and minute size, microfossils can be extracted from small samples of rock secured in drilling operations. Palynological analysis therefore is of practical application to petroleum exploration and to other geologic research involving subsurface sediments and structures.
The phases of palynology that deal exclusively with fossils are outgrowths and extensions of techniques and principles developed in the study of peat deposits of northern Europe during the early 1900s. In such research the presence, absence, and relative abundance of the pollen of various species of trees from known depths in the bog were ascertained statistically. Inasmuch as forest composition determines the pollen types trapped on the surface of a bog at any given time, it follows that changes in the pollen content reflect regional changes in forest composition. It was established that alterations in forest makeup were induced by climatic change over the many thousands of years since glacial ice disappeared from northern Europe. A relationship was thus established between the pollen content of the peat, the age (i.e., position in the bog), and climate. Application of such findings proved invaluable in subsequent studies of ancient climate, particularly the glacial and interglacial stages of the Pleistocene Epoch (approximately 1,600800,000 to 1012,000 years ago).

Published January 2012
Happy New Year!!
Years ago, I would make a New Year resolution or several of them. I couldn't wait for the New Year. I was determined to be so much better the coming year than I had ever been before. I was either going to lose weight, eat healthier, work out more, spend more quality time with family or spend more time reading (what I love to do); whatever it was, it was going to make me . . . a better me!
I would start off great in January. I would set my goals and hit it full force. February would come along and, well, life would happen—I would get busy and get off track. I would tell myself, "I will start again next week." Or, "OK, next week for sure." Before I knew it April and May would come and go and "next week" would never happen. So, after a few years of this I quit making New Year's resolutions altogether.
After some careful thought, I decided this year I would give it another shot. But, I must admit I was a little hesitant. I knew I had to set a goal that is realistic and has to be something I can achieve. So, I decided my New Year resolution for 2012 would be to live a little better today than I did yesterday.
With this resolution, I don't have to plan a specific menu, I don't have to feel guilt when I don't work out or exercise as much as I would like, I don't have to feel all the burdens of what I didn't get accomplished. I just have to be a little better today than I was yesterday.
In order for me to reach this goal I have twelve inspirational quotes. One for each month. I have made copies of these and have placed them in my car, at my office and have the first one taped to my bathroom mirror. This will remind me of my goal everyday—or that's the plan anyway! Just in case you would like to join me in this I have included my 12 quotes, below:
"The consequences of today are determined by the actions of the past. To change your future, alter your decisions today."
"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us"
I came up with this idea of living a little better every day, one morning when I was listening to the syndicated Christian radio station, K-Love. Every Monday morning they have what they call "Make a Difference Monday." They ask the listeners to share a story of how you have made a difference in someone's life or how someone has made a difference in your life. It's very encouraging and uplifting (especially on a Monday morning) to hear how everyday people make a difference in other people's lives. Gestures can be as small as holding the door open for someone, letting someone in line behind you go in front of you or—the most recent one I've heard this holiday season—paying off someone's lay-away Christmas purchase at a store. These people did something for someone else without asking anything in return. I'd say they lived better that day than they did the day before.
I aspire to live that way every day in 2012. I want to make a conscious choice to make a difference in someone's life. Whether I choose to read Skylar a book instead of doing the dishes, walk the dog instead of watching TV, or have a candlelight dinner with my family, I want to chose life, a good life. It doesn't cost a lot of money to make a difference, nor does it mean you have to give something up or that you have do without. It simply means doing something for someone else; it's the little things that mean the most.
I hope that whatever your resolution is for 2012 you reach that goal and that this year is your best year yet. I hope you aspire to be better today than you were yesterday.

Look around here there are forums and documentation.
I ask because I have been trying to stress test a Sky AP and I am not having much luck in Kali (which could be seen as a good thing :P).
I have been able to place my rt73 (Ralink 2573 USB) into monitor mode and I was able to try a couple of pins through Reaver but there were a multitude of errors along the way and after around 5 pin attempts it failed completely.
So next I tried to use the "wash -i mon0" command only to receive "[!] Found packet with bad FCS. Skipping..." on an endless loop. I can't see it being a driver issue because I was able to send a few pins, but then again I can't figure out any other reason so far so I'm hoping some of you guys can help me out on this one.
Btw, sorry that this is about Kali but I couldn't find any support for it just yet
Look around here there are forums and documentation.

Try it, my friend..Do not expect a "All hardware works out of the box" thing..This is Linux. OS is based on wheezy, sid and experimental..It is a hybrid system as known among Debianists.
So I think lots of hardware that did not work in BT5r3 might work in Kali..But need to test it..It has a very high kernel version and packages versions belong to testing, sid and experimental.
Test it my friend.

Schoenberg's 'Pierrot Lunaire' comes to USC
By, Frenche Brewer, firstname.lastname@example.com, 803-777-3691
Austrian composer Arnold Schoenberg's colorful and controversial melodrama "Moonstruck Pierrot" is one of contemporary music's most influential masterpieces, and the University of South Carolina's School of Music is set to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the work's premiere.
"Moonstruck Pierrot" will be the featured performance in a special Southern Exposure New Music-Chamber Innovista Series joint concert at 7:30 p.m., Friday, Oct. 26, in the School of Music recital hall. The program will feature members of USC's music faculty and will be conducted by South Carolina Philharmonic Maestro Morihiko Nakahara.
Admission to the concert is free and open to the public.
The performance will star Metropolitan Opera mezzo-soprano Janet Hopkins, delivering what Schoenberg called "Sprechstimme" -- a hybrid of speech and song.
Igor Stravinsky, the renowned composer and pianist, called the play "the solar plexus as well as the mind of early 20th-century music."
USC music theory professor Daniel Jenkins, a Schoenberg scholar, starts the show with an engaging multi-media presentation about Pierrot and its fascinating history.
In "Artist Exposure," an ongoing collaboration between Southern Exposure and Pocket Productions, Columbia artist Lyon Hill, an illustrator, puppet designer and animator, has created a painting for the concert, and will show a collection of never-before-seen illustrations.
Michael Harley, artistic director of the Southern Exposure series said, "Schoenberg's eerie, angst-filled music captures the drama's major themes of blood, blasphemy, love, religion and insanity, setting the stage for a fitting Halloween performance."

"Stuck By Lightning" Holds Star-Studded Los Angeles Premiere
Rounding out the weekend with some publicity duties, the cast of "Struck By Lightning" showed up at the Los Angeles premiere last night (January 6).
Sarah Hyland and her costar/boyfriend Matt Prokop certainly looked cozy as they posed for the press outside the Mann Chinese 6 Theater.
Additionally, "Pitch Perfect" starlet Rebel Wilson seemed to be in good spirits as she continued watching her popularity rise yet again.
And Chris Colfer and Angela Kinsey also made appearances at the event, which was sponsored by Tribeca Film.
Slated for release on January 11th, "Struck By Lightning," is about a young man who is struck and killed by a lightning bolt, only to recount the way he blackmailed his fellow classmates into contributing to his literary magazine.

back to Benzodiazepine / Sleeping Pill Info
back to Prescription Drug Info
Cinolazepam is in a class of drugs called Benzodiazepines. It also possesses anticonvulsant, muscle relaxant and sedative properties.
Benzodiazepines are widely used for a variety of conditions including anxiety and insomnia, but also for muscle tightness, pre-surgical sedation, detoxification from alcohol and the anxiety experienced with cardiovascular or gastrointestinal conditions.
Benzodiazepines primary mode of action is on GABA (gamma-aminobutryic acid), the most common receptor in the nervous system. GABA is a neurotransmitter that is the cornerstone of the inhibitory (calming) system of the body, and controls the action of epinephrine, norepinephrine and dopamine. The main function of GABA is to prevent anxiety and stress-related messages from reaching the motor centers of the brain. They regulate excitability, including the seizure threshold. The brain must balance the excitatory and calming influences. Excessive excitation can lead to seizures, insomnia, anxiety and other clinical conditions; whereas excessive inhibition results in incoordination, sedation and anesthesia.
Benzodiazepines, barbiturates and alcohol all act on GABA, and chronic use down-regulates and modify the GABA receptors, which in turn causes dependence. With continued use of Benzodiazepines, the calming effect of GABA is diminished while the excitatory neurotransmitter Glutamate, is increased. Glutamate is always an excitatory neurotransmitter, and GABA is what counters this action. As GABA is initially enhanced by Benzodiazepines, the brain's output of excitatory neurotransmitters, including Norepinephrine (noradrenalin), Serotonin, Acetyl Choline and Dopamine are reduced. These neurotransmitters are necessary for alertness, muscle tone, coordination, memory, emotional responses, endocrine gland hormones, heart rate, blood pressure control and other functions. As a result, all these may be impaired by Benzodiazepines.
Additional receptors for Benzodiazepines (non-GABA) are located in the colon, kidney, blood cells and adrenal cortex, and therefore may also be affected by Benzodiazepines. These actions are responsible for the well-known side effects and adverse reactions.
As the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter, GABA filters out irrelevant messages by terminating the excitatory glutamate, epinephrine and norepinephrine. GABA is viewed as the 'braking system' among neurotransmitters and it is estimated that about 40% of the synapses in the human brain work with GABA. GABA also enhances alpha wave production to promote relaxation and moderate occasional stress and supports immune health. It has been shown that T-cells (white blood cells critical to the immune system), are inhibited by GABA, and GABA has been shown to inhibit the response to foreign antigens. This suggests that the immune system needs GABA to function properly. This may explain why it is common to have frequent infections and a compromised immune system after long-term use of Benzodiazepines, or in the withdrawal process.
In situations of high stress or excitement, the brain responds with an increase in GABA production. Under normal situations, our levels of GABA are sufficient to maintain control of the excitatory stimuli. GABA's high concentration in the hypothalamus suggests it plays a critical role in both hypothalamus and pituitary function. The hypothalamus is a region of the brain that is the regulating center for instinctive functions such as sleep cycles, body temperature, and the pituitary gland is the master endocrine gland affecting all hormone functions of the body.
The GABA receptor allows more chloride ions to enter the brain cell, thus working to maintain the electrical charge within the cells. Benzodiazepines work by increasing the effectiveness of GABA in the chloride opening so the chloride ion cells to allow more chloride to enter the nerves. Caffeine does the opposite and inhibits the property of GABA. Therefore Benzodiazepines work as a tranquilizer and caffeine as a stimulant. Benzodiazepines act as a booster to the actions of GABA, and allow more chloride ions to enter the neuron. This in turn makes the nerve more resistant to excitation.
The Calcium-Channel activity is also increased by Benzodiazepines. Calcium-channels are located in the central nervous system, but also are located in excitable cells including in the muscle, nerve cells and in the Glial cells that form myelin to protect the nerve endings, and provide support and protection for the brain's nerve cells. There is roughly one Glial for every neuron in the gray matter of the brain. Prolonged use of benzodiazepines result in adaptation of the receptors that may increase in number and/or their sensitivity to GABA. A larger dose of the Benzodiazepine may be needed to produce the same calming effect. This phenomenon is known as 'tolerance'. Additionally, upregulated Calcium Channels are linked to an increase in neuropathy pain. Withdrawal of the drug can result in the receptor becoming hypoactive, producing symptoms worse than what the patient originally sought treatment for. If Benzodiazepines are suddenly stopped or reduced too rapidly, the calcium floods into the cell. This can cause intense withdrawal symptoms and be life-threatening due to the seizure risk.
Additionally, prolonged exposure to Benzodiazepines measurably increase accumulation of intracellular calcium that over-excites the neurons and increases anxiety, muscle tension, insomnia and many other symptoms associated with tolerance and withdrawal.
When the GABA is no longer capable of opening the chloride ion channels, the cells become overly excited. This cellular hyper-excitability is responsible for the insomnia, irritability, tachycardia, hypertension, hallucinations and seizures from the abrupt cessation of long-term alcohol use and also benzodiazepines.
Alcohol has a similar effect to benzodiazepines, increasing the release of chloride back into the neurons. This is the major way in which alcohol affects the brain. Tolerance to alcohol and benzodiazepines is the receptor adapting to the drug by increasing the number of receptors so more of the drug is needed to have the effect. The receptors become hypoactive by the drug being withdrawn, which enhances the symptoms that the drug was intended to treat.
Benzodiazepine withdrawal is far more involved than alcohol, heroin, methamphetamine or even opiates. Yet 112.8 million prescriptions were filled in 2008, with the majority prescribed by primary care physicians. They remain among the most frequently recommended medication.
Benzodiazepines can be extremely habit-forming and long-term use is not recommended (longer than 14 consecutive days).

My current computer desktop i built in about 2008, its on its last legs and i dont plan on upgrading any components in it.
Its been a while since i last kept up to date with hardware/computers/laptops…etc So i thought id come here and try and get some advise if possible
Firstly i think this time around id be more willing to get a laptop instead of a desktop, yes i know you cant upgrade a laptop like a desktop and all that but id like the portability! and being able to take it with me!
Id be using it for Gaming(WoW mostly i guess) and Web Design/Graphics.
Are Apples really THAT good? i know everyone seems to say theyre very good for design work, but ive never really used one.
what are alienwares like? i have always like the look of them, but just dont know
any help be much appreciated !
I don't know about Mac but about laptops, the only reason I'd prefer a laptop over desktop (or rather forced to) is portability and nothing else. So if you need something to carry around, buy laptop. (Though they are not that lightweight to carry all day.) If that's not the case, I always recommend a desktop. Desktops are cheaper and provide the best way to work for me. You could always buy external Keyboard & Mouse for the laptop but hey, if you use a laptop as a desktop like that, what's the point of having a laptop in the first place
Id like the portability as well hence why i thinking more of getting a laptop but you are right desktops can be built more cheaper
apple laptop!
If you buy Apple, you'll most certain never ever buy anything else again. Ever!:) Good luck!:)
Plus with APPLE you get to create shorter less keyword rich titles
Everyone keeps telling me Apple, But i dare say if i was to get a apple laptop id regret it later on?

Seems like you dont need others to convince you, just you to convince you !
Since you said you want to play wow on it do yourself a favor and dont get a laptop.
Decent gaming laptops are expensive as hell and dont get close to way cheaper desktop builds. The same goes for macbooks, they are awesome to work with, but playing games on them – no thanks.

Bills notebook: Mario Williams sits out with sore foot
PITTSFORD — Buffalo Bills defensive end Mario Williams was a spectator for the team's opening training camp practice due to a sore foot.
Williams was in uniform at St. John Fisher College and had his helmet on for part of the evening, but he did not do any practicing.
"Mario reported to our athletic training staff that he had a sore foot," coach Doug Marrone said. "So what we wanted to do was hold him out of practice and let our medical staff evaluate him."
Williams didn't reveal how he hurt his foot and deferred all questions about his injury to Marrone. He was not walking with any noticeable difficulty.
"It's not a disappointment from a standpoint of, 'Gosh, I wish the player was out here for the rest of the team.' It's more of a disappointment for the individual," Marrone said. "Mario's put in a lot of hard work, went in the playbook and did a lot of work this offseason."
Williams was hampered by a wrist injury last year and had surgery on it during the team's bye week. He did not miss any games.
Throw another prospect into the mix in the wide-open battle for the Bills' starting left guard job.
The Bills on Sunday signed free-agent offensive lineman Antoine Caldwell, who spent the last four seasons with the Houston Texans.
Caldwell has 19 career starts over four years, which doesn't make him the favorite to win the job but it's more than anyone else in the running.
Opening with the first-team in Sunday's first training camp practice was Colin Brown, a four-year veteran who has two career starts. Brown joined the Bills in December 2010. He missed much of last season with a torn hamstring muscle. Doug Legursky, who started 17 games over the last four years with Pittsburgh, worked with the second team at left guard.
Also signed was tackle Tony Hills.
Caldwell, 6-foot-3 and 315 pounds, started 48 games in college for the University of Alabama. He was the third-rated center in the 2009 draft, behind Buffalo's Eric Wood and Cleveland's Alex Mack. He was a two-time team captain for the Crimson Tide, one of only eight players with that distinction at the time of his graduation. Houston picked him in the third round.
Caldwell has dealt with some nagging injuries in his career. He played about half of Houston's offensive snaps in 2010, played sparingly in 2011 while battling a high-ankle sprain and played about 35 percent of the snaps in 2012.
Hills, 6-5 and 304, was a fourth-round pick of Pittsburgh in 2008. He started 24 games in college at left tackle for the University of Texas. He has appeared in only 11 games, with one start for Indianapolis, the last five seasons.
There is no public parking on the St. John Fisher College campus. Fans must take a shuttle bus from one of two parking lots and get dropped off at the Bills camp gates.
The lots are located at Mendon High School, 472 Mendon Road; and Sutherland High School, 55 Sutherland St., Pittsford. Both are within a mile or so of campus. There is a $1 charge for the shuttle for fans between ages 12 and 62.
Bills back C.J. Spiller rushed for 1,244 yards last season.
What is his yardage goal for 2013? He's not saying.
"I do have a number. I'll share it after the season, after hopefully the confetti is falling down on our head. But I do have a number in my head. I always make one. I think you should write down your goals in order to be great. In order to achieve things, I think you have to write them down and challenge yourself. I think it's a challenge for me to see where I'm at. I've got different categories I want to achieve and I'll keep it at that. But that ultimate goal is to hold up the Vince Lombardi Trophy."
Spiller said his goal last season was 1,300 rushing yards.

Bed Rest -- Does it happen with every pregnancy?
I was prescribed bed rest when I was 24 weeks pregnant with my twins. I could not work outside the home, clean, and was only allowed to stand for short periods of time. I wasn't diagnosed with an incompetent cervix but there was cervix shortening and funneling (which stopped several weeks after I was placed on BR).
My husband and I are seriously considering TTC another baby but one of my concerns with getting pregnant is having to be on bed rest again. What are the chances that once you are prescribed bed rest you will have to do it again?
21st January 2012 05:55 AM #2
HI DoubleSunshine - Cervical shortening and funnelling (where the internal part of the cervix opens a little bit) would have been exacerbated by carrying the twins. While there are no guarantees - you have a good chance of it not being an issue for this pregnancy. And the other plus is you made to full term with twins so one baby should be fine.
Regarding bed rest in pregnancy - I just did a quick bit of research and found that one in five pregnancies in the US are recommended bed rest at some point in their pregnancy. I was quite surprised by this - it isn't something that is commonly recommended here. The reason being is that research has found bed rest is not beneficial in preventing preterm labour. In fact I researched prevention of premature labour extensively last year and what medical treatments are around are not very effective at all - this includes cervical stitch, bed rest in pregnancy and medications.

As Aussiemidwife said, I have heard that bed rest really doesn't make that much of a difference in how the pregnancy turns out in most cases. I am surprised to hear the prevalence is so high in the US! I do not really know much about the science behind cervical shortening and funneling, but I do know of many women who have had to do bed rest in one pregnancy and not others.

Well, it's very good to know that my condition was due to housing two babies in my uterus and I'm glad that I shouldn't have any cervix issues if we decide to TTC another.
Wow! 1 in 5 pregnancies in the US are prescribed bed rest? That seems really high. I wonder why that is.
I have definitely heard many of the arguments for and against bed rest. I'm not a medical professional but I believe bed rest helped me keep my babies cooking -- or at least that's what I tell myself because if not it was a waste of 12 weeks stuck in bed I can tell you that the funneling and cervix shortening stopped when I was on BR. I also know that when I would lie down on my side and drink a lot of water my contractions would stop. If nothing else, being on bed rest helped me feel like I was doing something to help my babies in a situation that I really had no control over. It was terrifying to learn that I might deliver my babies early so if the doctor would have told me to stand on my head for 8 hours a day I would have done it -- luckily, I just had to stay in bed One of my friends had her twins at 26 weeks and they weren't even 2 lbs and they were in NICU for months, so I knew what could happen if I had them too soon.
I've known many women who have been on bed rest and delivered healthy babies but I also personally know 2 women who were expecting twins and were placed on bed rest. Unfortunately, they both delivered their babies early and lost them Bed Rest is certainly not a guarantee that's for sure!

Roseville, CA. June 13, 2012 at 5:51 p.m. The Roseville Fire Department responded to a report of a residential structure fire in the 1100 Block of Meadow Oaks Drive. The residence was occupied at the time of the fire. 911 was called after the fire was discovered inside a rear bedroom of the home by the occupants.
Three engines, two ladder trucks, and a battalion chief responded to the scene. The first arriving engine company found heavy smoke showing from the rear of a one story home. Firefighters confirmed that all occupants were out of the home. Firefighters quickly brought the fire under control in less than 10 minutes minimizing further damage. A total of twenty personnel responded to the scene. Assistance was also provided by American Medical Response and Roseville Police.
There were no working smoke detectors inside the residence at the time of the fire. The Roseville Fire Department would like to remind you of the importance of having a working smoke detector in your home. Failure to do so could cost you your life. Had this fire occurred in the middle of the night while the occupants were sleeping, the lack of a working smoke detector may have proved fatal. Firefighters installed new smoke detectors in the home prior to leaving the scene.
There were no civilian or firefighter injuries. Investigators determined that the cause of the fire was accidental. The damage from the fire was estimated to be approximately $40,000.

Winter Interior Care
Prolonging the life of your interior can be increased with a little extra care during the winter months.
Be careful when entering your aircraft after walking across the ramp or were ever your car is parked. Shoe soles may grab salt from the parking lot or from the ramp which may have deice product (which may contain salt). Those items are easily tracked into your interior and be absorbed into the carpet. Once inside the aircraft these products can work their evil ways which not only impact your interior, but also will create corrosion on the structure of your aircraft without ever seeing evidence of this occurring until it is too late. Corrosion which is not addressed, will require extensive repairs to the aircraft structure. So please make sure your shoes are tapped off before entering your aircraft.
Enjoy the winter flying and stay warm.

Graduate students who are in good standing in a degree program are eligible to take graduate courses at several graduate schools in Michigan with prior approval of their Home and potential Host Institutions*.
This program enables graduate students to take advantage of unique educational opportunities throughout the state. See the next page of this document for a list of participating institutions and MIGS liaison officers.
*(The Home Institution is where the student is currently enrolled in a graduate degree program; the Host Institution is where the student wishes to be a guest.)
First, the student and her/his academic advisor identify course(s) at a participating university needed for the student's program of study and are unavailable at her/his Home Institution.
Next the student obtains a MIGS application from the MIGS liaison officer at the Home Institution. When signatures of the student's academic advisor and MIGS liaison officer have been obtained, signifying that the student is qualified and eligible to take course(s) for transfer back to the program of study, the Home Institution MIGS liaison forwards the application to the Host Institution MIGS liaison for review and approval.
The Host Institution MIGS liaison will ensure that the course(s) are offered in the anticipated semester or term and that there is sufficient space available to allow for enrollment by a guest student. Once admission has been approved by the Host Institution, the MIGS liaison or Admission's Office at the Host Institution issues admissions documents and provides registration instructions to the student.
After completing the course(s), the student is responsible for arranging an official transcript to be sent from the Host Institution to the Home Institution. The student should also contact the MIGS liaison at the Home Institution to indicate that a transcript is being sent for posting on the academic record per guidelines of the Home Institution.
FEES AND FINANCIAL AID: Students on MIGS enrollment pay tuition and other fees normally charged by the Host Institution for the services rendered. Students on MIGS enrollment are not eligible for financial aid from the Host Institution.
RESIDENCY STATUS is the same as at the Home Institution.
CREDIT: All credit earned under a MIGS enrollment will be accepted by a student's Home Institution as agreed and posted according to the transcripting practices of the Home Institution.
PART-TIME: A student may combine a part-time enrollment at the Home Institution with a part-time enrollment at the Host Institution with prior approval of the student's academic advisor (and SEVIS officer for international F-1 students). The Home Institution agrees to obtain the documentation necessary to combine the enrollments into a single enrollment status and to update the student's enrollment time status with the National Student Loan Clearinghouse or other time status reporting agency as appropriate.
FELLOWSHIPS: MIGS participation does not necessarily impact fellowship commitments made by the Home Institution for a given period. Financial aid issues should be negotiated by the student and appropriate officials prior to participating in MIGS.
GRADES: Earned in MIGS courses may be applied toward the Home Institution grade point average or used for credit toward a graduate degree as allowed by the Home Institution's policy.
ENROLLMENTS: Are limited to the minimum number of credits required for full-time graduate status at the Home Institution.
TRANSCRIPTS: The student is responsible for arranging to have one transcript certifying completion of course work sent from the Host Institution to the Home Institution.

Sawislak to Serve as Interim GSA Emergency Chief
February 28, 2007
Contact: Michael Collins, (202) 501-1231
WASHINGTON – Josh Sawislak, senior advisor to Administrator Lurita Doan, will serve as head of the U.S. General Services Administration's Office of Emergency Response and Recovery (OERR) while the agency's Chief Emergency Response and Recovery Officer, Richard Reed, serves a one-year detail to the White House, GSA announced today.
"We have worked hard to significantly improve our ability to respond to national emergencies," said Administrator Doan. "Josh's skills, background and participation on a variety of high-profile projects of national importance ensure that there will be no break in the superb leadership that Richard Reed established in GSA's emergency response division."
Mr. Reed, a nationally recognized emergency management expert, is serving as the Special Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Senior Director for Continuity Policy at the Homeland Security Council. "Josh has been invaluable in helping me stand up the Office of Emergency Response and Recovery," Mr. Reed said.
OERR was created on Nov. 1, 2006, to strengthen GSA's emergency response capability. It is designed to leverage existing agency resources to provide a new level of support and assistance to first responders, emergency workers, and recovery teams.
Prior to his appointment at GSA, Mr. Sawislak was involved in the planning, procurement, management, and delivery of major transportation and environmental infrastructure projects throughout North America. He recently served as the Commonwealth of Virginia's deputy project director for the $5 billion expansion of the Washington, DC, regional Metrorail system into the Dulles Corridor in Northern Virginia. During his 20-year career, Mr. Sawislak also held management roles on New York's Second Avenue Subway and Boston's Central Artery/Tunnel projects, the largest transit and highway projects in the United States.
Mr. Sawislak, who will continue in his advisory role to Administrator Doan, replaces GSA Chief of Staff John Phelps as interim head of OERR.

Brevard, N.C.- The Brevard College men's soccer team dropped a close 3-2 match in their 2012 season opener against Erskine College in Due West, South Carolina on Thursday.
Erskine sophomore Andrew Settlemire scored the game's first goal, finding the corner of the net from the left side at the 16:52 mark.
It didn't take long for Brevard to answer Settlemire's goal as the Tornados tied the game at 1-1 at 19:28, courtesy of a Landon Reid header. Nicolas Daza chipped a penalty kick into the box, which Reid headed over the leap of Erskine goalie Roberto De La Vina for the score.
The Flying Fleet would regain the lead when De La Vina's goal kick landed just outside the Brevard penalty box, which Settlemire was able to settle and punch into the net at 36: 08. Erskine would take the 2-1 lead into the half.
The two teams played evenly to begin the second half before the Flying Fleet took a 3-1 lead at the 69:01 mark when Trevor Moreland's cross into the middle was headed in by Jay Lang.
The Tornados, though, were not finished. Junior Montano brought Brevard within one as he scored an unassisted goal at 86:07 to make it 3-2. Brevard's Paulo Silva almost tied the game at 88:13 with a shot on goal, but a save by De La Vina sealed the victory for Erskine.

I have the same problem i run with Vbox BT5 and i have not access in my files on c: d: etc. so i cant put the list which is 13gb....
I have installed Backtrack 5 R3 64-bit using Virtualbox. Now I am attempting to install the Virtual Guest Addon using the following command:
root@bt:~# wget http://download.virtualbox.org/virtu...ions_4.0.8.iso
I attempted 3 times already, but the screen goes completely black at about 20% completion. All of the lines of text along with the completion rate disappear. I tried restarting my computer, but the same problem keeps occurring.
Is there a way to remedy this issue? I tried looking on the forums and google, but I couldn't find anything in particular solution to this problem. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
I have the same problem i run with Vbox BT5 and i have not access in my files on c: d: etc. so i cant put the list which is 13gb....
@seth2600: Have you tried downloading the file with a web browser, or on an alternate machine and transferring the ISO using a USB flash drive? In any case, I didn't have any problem downloading the file. I tried once with Chrome under Windows and once with Firefox under my BT5R3 VM (I prefer VMware Workstation to VirtualBox, though).
@Dyndrilliac: I ended up downloading the file with a faster internet connection, and that did the trick. However, now am I having trouble issuing the following command as shown in the backtrack wiki:
root@bt:~# mount o loop VBoxGuestAdditions_4.0.8.iso.4 /a
I get the following message:
VBoxguestAdditions_4.0.8.iso.4: No such file or directory
I was just wondering how to issue the correct command so the file can be found? I think it's called "iso.4" since I made 4 attempts to download it.

WATCH: Deftones play 'Jump' in tribute to Kris Kross's Chris Kelly
Listen to Kris Kross on iHeartRadio | Listen to Deftones on iHeartRadio
(Yahoo!) - In tribute to Kris Kross rapper Chris Kelly, who died yesterday at a hospital in Atlanta at the age of 34, rock band Deftones played the duo's hit "Jump" during their set last night in St. Louis, Missouri.
"We got word that a member of Kris Kross has passed," vocalist Chino Moreno told the crowd. "I know it's not a good thing, but we represent 'boing boing boing' tonight...Kris Kross'll make you jump, jump."
Deftones' version of the song featured low, distorted power-chords, high guitar squeals, and a lunging beat. The crowd chanted, "Jump, jump!" along with the band, which inserted a tumbling flurry of rhythm in the midsection of the song.
Before beginning the tunre, Moreno pointed to drummer Abe Cunningham and said, "He's [wearing his clothes] backwards and inside-out," a reference to Kris Kross's style of wearing their shirts backwards. Guitarist Stephen Carpenter also seemed to have his shirt backwards during the song.

Muskies open with a victory
The Xavier men's basketball team topped Gardner-Webb 83-59 in their home opener Friday night at Cintas Center. Four Musketeers scored in double figures to beat the Runnin' Bulldogs.
It was a slow start for the Musketeers, as Gardner-Webb scored the game's first seven points. A three-pointer by sophomore Semaj Christon put Xavier on the board with 14:53 to go in the first half. Xavier obtained its first lead of the game on an Isaiah Philmorelayup with 10:17 left. The Musketeers were able to take advantage of several Gardner-Webb fouls late in the first half, scoring three points off of foul shots in the last nine seconds.
Heading into the locker room, Xavier had a 41-22 lead. At the half, Christon led the team in scoring with 11 points. The Musketeers ended the first half shooting 50 percent (12-of-24), while the Runnin' Bulldogs shot 30.8 percent (8-of-26). Xavier's long-range shot came up big in the first half, shooting 57.1 percent (4-of-7). Gardner-Webb was not as successful, only hitting one of six.
In the second half, Xavier continued to add to the lead. The Musketeers never allowed Gardner-Webb within 14 points. Freshman Brandon Randolph helped the cause with a rebound and a fast-break layup with 10:12 left in the game. The Musketeers went on a 7-0 run in a span of 1:21. During that run, sophomore James Farr created some noise in the Cintas Center with a three-pointer with 7:53 to go. Breaking through the press, Christon threw up an alley-oop to freshman Jalen Reynolds, who finished with a two-handed dunk with 2:59 left to play.
Xavier's final stat line included a field goal percentage of 52.8 percent (28-of-53). The Musketeers shot 50 percent (5-of-10) from behind the arc, while shooting 55 percent (22-of-40) from the charity stripe. Gardner-Webb shot 40.4 percent (21-of-52), 18.2 percent (2-of-11) from three-point territory, and 57.7 percent (15-of-26) on free throws. The Musketeers won the rebounding battle 45-27, 13 of which came on the offensive glass. Xavier also had big help from its bench, which resulted in 29 points.
Stainbrook and Christon again led the Musketeers to victory. Stainbrook notched his first double-double in a Xavier uniform, making four of his six shots from the field to score 14 with 12 rebounds. Christon had four assists and three rebounds to go along with his 13 points.
Randolph and Farr also had big
Senior Erik Stengeralso contributed to the Xavier win with nine points and four rebounds.
After running into foul trouble in the first half, Philmore scored six of his eight points in the second half.
Junior Donta Harper led the Runnin' Bulldogs in points, scoring 20. Tyrell Nelson and Jerome Hill each had five rebounds.

Welcome to next culture trainings!
Our trainings support you stepping along the bridge of personal development and personal growth.
The term next culture comes from Albert Einstein's observation: "We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them."
Shifting your thinking automatically creates the next culture. And, as Ishmael author Daniel Quinn writes, "Something better than civilization is waiting for us."
How do we expand your capacities for creating and relating? Through helping you look at the thoughtware you currently use to think with, and offering you new thoughtware options to choose from.
Just because you are using a certain thoughtware does not mean it is the only thoughtware your brain can use!
We specialize in delivering a particular framework of thoughtware that empowers you to take responsibility for things you may never have suspected a person could take responsibility for. This framework, or context, is called Possibility Management.
Possibility Management has been steadily emerging through private experiments by small circles of individuals in Europe and North America since 1975.
Since 1998 Possibility Management has been delivered in Expand The Box trainings and Possibility Labs with immediate practical application in everyday life.
In addition to trainings, there are talks, one-day-workshops, and regular courses such as Study Group, Rage Club, Adventure Feelings, and Possibility Team, during which Possibility Management skills are deepened and practiced.
Our online Calendar gives you details about upcoming trainings and ongoing groups.
The Trainer Guild wishes you immeasurable fun while exploring these opportunities!

Kenny Chesney wraps up "No Shoes Nation Tour"
Listen to Kenny Chesney on iHeartRadio
Over the weekend, Kenny Chesney performed the concluding show of his "No Shoes Nation Tour," at Gillette Stadium in Boston.
The tour began in March and featured, Eric Church, Zac Brown Band, Eli Young Band and Kacey Musgraves.
This is not the first time Kenny wrapped up at Gillette Stadium. Last year's "Brothers of the Sun Tour," with Tim McGraw, and 2011's "Goin' Coastal Tour" both finished on the Patriot's field.
Boston Medical Center teamed up with Kenny to establish the "Spread the Love Fund," which raises money for victims injured during the Boston Marathon bombings. T-shirts are available on his website and all profits go directly to the fund.
Kenny recently announced that he will be taking a break from touring in 2014.
According to Examiner.com, Kenny Chesney stated, "I love the band, the crew, the whole team and it's weird to not be looking at next year's stage design, but I shouldn't make albums to service the tour. So I'm going to put the music first, dial it back and do the strangest thing in the world: not hit the road next summer."
…Kenny get some R&R, but don't leave us for too long!

#1: Suave Daily Clarifying Shampoo
I use Suave Daily Clarifying Shampoo once in a while when say I try a new product and I don't like how it makes my hair feel or look, or when my hair feels "gunky." I'll wash with the Suave to get whatever product is in my hair out and start fresh. I've noticed tho that whenever I use the clarifying shampoo my curls are always more defined and have a sort of ''bounce" to them. Anybody know why this is so? And how can I recreate this feeling and look with not so harsh products? I know using the Suave too much it will dry out my hair.

CORNER BROOK — Keith Nicol says a snow avalanche hazard alert issued for the Maritime provinces earlier this week should have warned everyone in Atlantic Canada to be cautious in the great outdoors.
The geography professor, and local avalanche awareness expert, said it may have been a mistake on behalf of someone who misunderstood Newfoundland and Labrador is not usually included when referring to the Maritimes — a term that normally only refers to Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island.
Nonetheless, Nicol said the same conditions which prompted the Maritime avalanche warning exist in Newfoundland and Labrador too. He said such a widespread alert across Atlantic Canada was "unprecedented."
The Canadian Avalanche Centre issued the alert after it was notified of recent avalanche activity in the Wentworth Valley area of Nova Scotia.
This alert applies to anywhere the recent stormy weather deposited 20 centimetres or more of new snow. Areas where a hard or icy crust underlies the new snow are of particular concern, as are places where windblown snow has formed firm drifts.
Where these conditions exist, the Canadian Avalanche Centre recommends avoiding steep slopes, gullies and places where sliding snow could push someone into a creek or lake.
"I haven't heard of any avalanche activity in western Newfoundland yet, but that doesn't mean there isn't stuff going on out there we don't know about or stuff just waiting to happen," said Nicol. "We're getting the same kind of weather, but we've got more snow."
Rainfall earlier in February, followed by colder weather, would have created a crusty layer of snow on top of which fresher layers of snow have since accumulated. Those top layers, under the right conditions, are now likely susceptible to sliding off the crusty layer beneath the surface, creating an avalanche.
Milder temperatures later in the week may have also made the upper layer a little heavier and even more likely to slough off the crusty layer below.
"There's also been a lot wind, particularly in this past Sunday's storm, which has redeposited a lot of this snow," added Nicol.
It is difficult to predict where a significant snow slide will occur. Nicol said the two reported incidents in Nova Scotia happened in places where there has been little, if any, activity historically.
At this point in the winter, Nicol usually has been in the backcountry on his cross-country skis and has dug several test holes to examine the layers of snow for the susceptibility to avalanche activity. He had been out of province for the past three weeks, so he has not done that lately.
He is still in the process of trying to gather information from his regular contacts who have been in dangerous areas.
Nicol urged anyone heading into the backcountry — particularly the Gros Morne, Lewis Hills and Blow-Me-Down Mountains areas — or anywhere, to be aware of their surroundings and be cautious when snowmobiling, skiing or snowshoeing.
He would also like anyone who has seen any evidence of avalanche activity to contact him. His email is firstname.lastname@example.com.
If temperatures increase, or if more snow and wind occur, the avalanche hazard will increase. The Canadian Avalanche Centre recommends that parents supervise children carefully when outdoors on snow-covered slopes.
Those who are venturing onto steep slopes should be prepared with safety equipment. A probe and shovel are necessary to find and dig out anyone who might be caught. Avalanche transceivers are strongly encouraged if heading onto larger slopes.

Too much inventory, not enough sales, razor thin margins, the only money they make is on Rocket Fish cables which employees can buy for $3 a pop (hmdi) with their discount.
It's like best buy slept with you gave you syphilis changed their number and on top of it....your pregnant. Hahaha best buy is bloody awesome and I buy all my electronics from there....nobody(brick and mortar) gives discounts on apple products except them and their coverage compared to apples? Come on now. Anyways great article besides that.
If I say anymore - or what's going thru my head as someone "from the inside" - I feel some ninja dressed in blue and khaki is going to reign terror upon me in the form of a pink slip.
One of the oddest posts I've seen. Why all the hate for Best Buy? What part of the country do you live in? I live in San Diego, CA, and here Best Buy is VERY popular. Perhaps you live in a different country or world then I.
Most people I know (and dont know) go to Best Buy for anything tech related. It is by far the most popular electronics store, and one of the more popular stores in general. It has a great reputation, with both customers and employees.
I had a friend who loved it when they worked there before leaving for school. Higher pay then most employers, lots of room to advance, and regular raises. I've only heard good things.
The few people that I have encountered that dislike Best Buy are "Tech Snobs", and don't want to go to a store where they feel "superior" to the staff working there.
Personally I like best buy simply because they have some great deals (Xbox 360 slim 250gb, fable 3, halo reach, 3 months Xbox live, $200!! So happy bout that one!)
I haven't crunched the numbers, and don't know there future business outlook, stocks, etc....but they have a great reputation, and most people love shopping there, and it is the average persons "go to" spot for any electronics. That will take you pretty far.
Best Buy is a 13 billion dollar a year business and their stock dropping percentage points is not a forecast of their demise. Anyways and more importantly, their API's being available to Siri might turn out to be the precursor of "the next best thing" for retailers, voice-activated shopping. (Of course picking up your phone and calling notwithstanding).
Siri is the hottest thing and competition looms in the horizon. Siri-searches, finds your product options, shows you the pricing matrix and allows you to complete a sale, think about it. Just a thought...
Went into Best Buy a few months back to get a micro usb cable so I could jailbreak my Apple TV. The salesman told me that there was no such thing. Went in not long after (fool me once) looking for a Mini Display to HDMI adapter which I had seen on their website. Was once again told by the salesman that there was no such thing.
Thank you Best Buy...
Feature is useless considering how inaccurate the database is. I would never shop at best buy anyways bunch of rip off items.

A spokesperson for the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau tells the AP the federal bureau issued the "label approval" for the product, called "Palcohol," in error. And Palcohol confirms that it agreed today to surrender the approvals, though its parent company, Lipsmark, says it will resubmit the labels for approval.
