Thank you for your question. I look forward to working with you to provide you the information you are seeking for educational purposes only.
Unfortunately, a person on parole has very few rights. A parole officer does have authority to go wherever the parolee is found to arrest the parolee. The officer can also search the area where the parolee is located without a warrant for any contraband that would violate the terms and conditions of his parole. HOWEVER, since this was not his residence, unless drugs were found on your husband, he cannot be charged with the drugs, nor should he be charged for being around drugs he did not know were even present. He could still be revoked for not checking in, but not for the drugs if it was in someone else's possession that your husband had no knowledge of or connection to.

mississippi :Overcharging, favoritism alleged in Jefferson Parish schools copier contract
A controversy involving photocopy machines in Jefferson Parish schools has School Board members accusing vendors of cheating the public out of hundreds of thousands of dollars and some vendors saying board members are unfairly excluding them from the school market."The school system is getting fleeced by these copy people," board member Mark Morgan said, referring to what school officials estimate is more than $600,000 in copy machine overcharges over the past five years.
Vendors took offense, saying they are doing nothing wrong and that the board's decision in November to name Bell Office Machines of Metairie as the school system's sole copy machine vendor excludes them from competing for business."You didn't give us an opportunity; we are a legitimate company," said Tracey Mutz, sales manager of Unicopy, which supplied copy machines to Catherine Strehle Elementary School in Avondale until the board decided to go with Bell.
St. Pierre Ray.jpgRay. St. PierreThe board named Bell as its sole vendor after board member Ray St. Pierre — a friend of Bell owner John Poole — complained of overcharges stemming from a practice that let individual principals sign their own contracts for copy machine leases. Instead of principals working out their own deals, the new policy requires all schools to work through Bell Office Machines, which already supplies copy machines to the Jefferson school system's central office and is on the state copy machine vendor contract, which means it has been approved as a low bidder.
The controversy came to a head at Thursday's School Board meeting, where St. Pierre acknowledged his relationship with Poole and said the two have played golf together at Timberlane Country Club since 2004 when St. Pierre joined the Gretna club.But he denied charges that his proposal for a sole vendor was politically motivated. Referring to an e-mail he said was sent by an unnamed vendor to every board member but him, he said, "My character has been attacked as to some type of insider dealing. … No one is paying for me to play golf at Timberlane or any other place."
St. Pierre said it wasn't until last year that he learned of Poole's connection to the school system, knowledge about copy machine vendors and dealings with principals."My interest was stirred by what he began to tell me, and I became very knowledgeable," St. Pierre said. "And it didn't take me long to figure out that education money was being taken from the kids right at the school sites."St. Pierre said three schools in his district — Ella C. Pittman Elementary in Harvey and Miller Wall Elementary and Ruppel Academy for Advanced Studies in Marrero — were overcharged almost $20,000, and in the case of Wall, 60 percent over what is allowed under state contract."There is not a single contract out there that has been signed properly," St. Pierre said.
Board attorney Michael Fanning said no principal is authorized to sign a contract, yet "they've been doing it for years." He said he plans to look into each contract to determine the extent of overcharging and whether any "fraud" was involved.Morgan defended St. Pierre, saying he is pleased the issue has come to the forefront: "It's absolutely unbelievable that Mr. St. Pierre exposes this type of fleecing and is accused of engaging in political behavior for his own golf game."But some board members said they want to ensure that other legitimate businesses are being treated fairly."I thought we would be served by more than one vendor," board member Cedric Floyd said. "I intend to revisit and learn about this and make sure that we are getting the best deal."

For most actors, television has always been a ladder to make it big in the Bollywood. But there are exceptions too. Many like Shah Rukh Khan are not ashamed to talk about their careers in the television and what they have gained from the medium.
But Zee TV's Ravan aka Narien Jha is a tad different in this matter. Recently, at the music launch of the film Eik Dasttak, it was revealed that Narein Jha plays the main lead in the movie. Naturally, Jha too appeared to be very excited about the fanfare surrounding the event. But when asked about his experience of playing Ravan on TV, he tried to cut it short. Probably, he was ashamed and felt uncomfortable to dwell on the topic for long.
"It's good", he simply said. When prodded to elaborate more on this, Jha got irritated and said, "You are here to witness the music release of my film, and so you should only ask me questions related to the movie. I hope you understand this."
Jha didn't seem to care about the fact that the people present there were whispering, "Are ye to Zee TV ka Ravan hai (He is Zee TV's Ravan)". Although people still recognise him for his role in the television, Jha seems to be reluctant to accept the fact.
By the way, Mr Jha, has this got something to do with the fact that the show is not getting good TRPs? Looks like TRPs rule the lives of actors much more than good content does!

SpaceX Plans Another Launch Today For EUTELSAT, ABS
Space launches by Hawthorne-based SpaceX are almost becoming as regular as scheduled service at the local bus stop, as the company is planning yet, another satellite launch today, this time for satellite operators Eutelsat and ABS. According to SpaceX, the launch window for its Eutelsat/ABS mission opens today at 10:29 a.m. ET. The mission, if successful, will deliver two, commercial communications satellites to Geostationary Transfer Orbits (GTO). SpaceX said it will again attempt a landing of its Falcon 9 first stage on its drone ship, which it has now done successfully twice before. The EUTELSAT 117 West B and ABS-2A satellites were built by Boeing Satellite Systems. EUTELSAT 117 West B will serve Latin America, and ABS-2A serves Africa, MENA, Russia, South Asia and South East Asia. SpaceX is again webcasting the launch on its web site.

Clubbie Profile February: Jade Horton
Our Clubbie Profile for the month of February is the Jade Horton from Tacking Point SLSC. Jade tells us about why she loves Surf Life Saving and what she has planned for the future.
Name: Jade Horton
Surf Life Saving Club: Tacking Point SLSC
Volunteer hours so far: 68.75 hours
When did you join Surf Life Saving and why?
I joined Surf Life Saving at the age of 4 as it was a family involvement with my older sister aged 6 also participating.
What is your greatest achievement in Surf Life Saving? My greatest achievement in Surf Life Saving is winning Junior Lifesaver Of The Year in 2013. It was something I had always aspired to do and it is one of the greatest achievements of my entire life and something I will cherish and will never forget.
What is your best clubbie memory? My best clubbie memory is when my U13 board relay team won a bronze medal at State Champs after training extremely hard leading up to the event. It was an exciting event and we were proud to have achieved this as a team.
Favourite beach that isn't your own? I would have to say Manly Beach as it is such a beautiful area and has a great setup for carnivals. It also usually has great waves which are always fun.
Why do you volunteer as a lifesaver? I volunteer as a lifesaver because I like being active and helpful in my community. As I have the qualifications to be a lifesaver I try my best to return the favour to the course trainers and assessors and fulfil these activities.
Who is someone you admire in the Surf Life Saving movement and why? Someone I admire in Surf Life Saving is Ryan Rosenbaum (former Australian Lifesaver Of The Year) as he is a fantastic role model for all ages and always gives 100%. He inspires me to be a better lifesaver/person and to go out and achieve my dreams.
What are your goals within Surf Life Saving? My goals include becoming an IRB crew person and driver and I would also love to become an Age Manager as well as assisting with training courses for the nippers.
Anything else you would like to add: Last year I participated in the State Youth Panel which I greatly appreciate the opportunity to have had the experience and develop my knowledge about Surf Life Saving NSW. It has given me a greater understanding of how the process works and the teamwork involved with these major decisions.

Quigley Falls in Opening Round of US Open National Playoffs
Posted on July 22, 2010
JOHNS CREEK, Ga. -- University of Kentucky men's tennis junior Eric Quigley fell short of a possible spot in the US Open qualifying stage, falling 6-3, 6-3 to Colin Hoover in the first round of the US Open Men's National Playoffs at the Atlanta Athletic Club on Thursday.
Quigley fell behind early in the match, losing the first set 6-3. The two Americans held serve for the first few games of the opening set before Hoover broke the UK star and took control. In the second set, Hoover held serve to open the scoring before Quigley would quickly answer and tie the set a 1-1. Hoover would then break Quigley to go up 3-1 and take control of the set for the 6-3 win.
The UK star advanced to the national playoff by claiming the US Open National Playoff Midwest Sectional Qualifying Tournament at the Linder Family Tennis Center in Mason, Ohio. Quigley lost only 11 games in five matches on his way to the tournament title when he defeated Kyle Collette 6-2, 6-2 in the championship.
Quigley, who was recently named to the USTA Summer Collegiate team, finished with 42 wins during his sophomore season at Kentucky. The native of Pewee Valley, Ky., finished the season with All-America honors in both singles and doubles to become only the third player in school history to receive such honors as a sophomore and the first to be named a singles and doubles All-America as a sophomore. Quigley, who finished the season ranked No. 10 in singles and No. 17 in doubles with partner Brad Cox, finished the season with a 21-6 dual match record and 42-12 overall record after reaching the NCAA Singles Championship Round of 16. Quigley, who played at the No. 1 singles position all year for UK, was a vital part of the team's success with Kentucky posting an 18-3 record in dual matches where Quigley won in singles. On top of his two All-American honors, Quigley also was named to the first team All-Southeastern Conference and Intercollegiate Tennis Association Ohio Valley Region Player to Watch.
The winner of the national playoff will receive a wild card into the 2010 US Open Qualifying Tournament, August 24-27, at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, in Flushing, N.Y., the home of the US Open.
Stay tuned to UKAthletics.com for more information about the Kentucky men's tennis team.

The Olde Bell
The Olde Bell is part of a family of modern coaching inns, set in historic timber framed buildings providing eating, drinking, gatherings and lodgings. Only 45 minutes from central London, with great access to Henley on Thames, Maidenhead and Marlow, with 50 bedrooms, a celebrated restaurant and 7 private rooms seating up to 150 people for weddings, parties and meetings. The Olde Bell is not a hotel where the rooms dominate, but where the common spaces are the heartbeat of the place. The buildings function almost like a village in itself; the main building for the overnight guests and locals, and the auxiliary buildings for private gatherings. The kitchen is under the charge of Warren Geraghty who uses locally grown, seasonal produce served with a generosity of spirit in both flavour and portions. With parts of the inn dating back to 1135 and with nooks, crannies and crooked floors The Olde Bell offers traditional hospitality in an environment which is human, warm and social. The Olde Bell is a re-invention of the traditional English Inn - providing eating, drinking and lodgings. The Inn provides honest creature comforts: sumptuous mattresses, pure cotton sheets, with extra Jakob's wool blankets to make you feel at home. The Olde Bell has 5 separate buildings with bedrooms and 5 types of rooms which range from spacious to comfortable. The Olde Bell is classified as a 5 Star Inn by the AA Hotel Guide and has been awarded 2 Rosettes from the AA Restaurant Guide.

text: Gold prices were slightly lower on Friday, a day after the yellow metal posted its largest intraday gain in 2014. RJO Futures senior market strategist Phil Streible tells TheStreet's Joe Deaux that he wasn't surprised by Friday's small pullback. Streible says most investors are waiting to see if geopolitical tensions in Iraq continue to worsen, which could support higher prices. Streible says that he doesn't think Thursday's rally suggests a fundamental upward trend, and adds that the yellow metal likely will move lower if Iraq troubles cool off, bringing back crude oil prices and other commodities.

The language packs would change the language for the entire application not just one specific portion. There is no way to change this.
Oct 14, 2011 at 11:10 UTC
I would suggest talking a look at the language packs with the idea to create your own. (NOTE I HAVE NOT DONE THIS) I would expect in there you can change some of the langue to something else BUT this may introduce the second language to other random parts of the program.
Also for the Helpdesk email template Yes you would want to change all the english (in the actual email text) to the other language
Oct 14, 2011 at 11:18 UTC
On BWelmers suggestion, here is some documentation should you want to create a language pack.
Oct 14, 2011 at 11:43 UTC
actually the biggest problem should be the e-mail what the users are receiving from the system because they asked me why is not possible to change to our local language, but i don't want that all my SW turns to the local language:))
So i definitely must change the template of the reply message and i translate it to the desired language i saw that there are two tabs html and plain text, i will need to understand how it is working template thingy :)
Thanks and i will give a feedback as i advance with my issue.
Oct 14, 2011 at 11:48 UTC
This should help you out.
Oct 14, 2011 at 11:53 UTC
Just put everything on the help desk in caps and bold. It's like shouting - that way people will understand. It also helps if you put spaces between the characters - it's like talking slowly.
this doesn't really work.
Oct 14, 2011 at 11:53 UTC
You should only use the HTML template. the Plain text one is being phased out.
Oct 14, 2011 at 11:54 UTC
There is only one template so you can't have multiple versions for different users. How would Spiceworks know which template to send to which users?
My suggestion would be to provide both English and the translation in the same template, that way both users can read it.
Oct 14, 2011 at 11:56 UTC
Sorry i was thinking of the wrong area
Event based emails are being phased out not Plain Text.
But you should not see the event based ones anymore so that should not be a problem.
I would almost say you could try to create the ticket from scratch to make it look and say what you want. Using the second link Jay provided.

Off the Hook
If wireless communications costs are making your ears ring, here's how to fight back.
December 2008
by Robert Hertzberg/CFO Magazine
Cell phones and hand-held devices such as BlackBerrys are among the most insidious of line items — on an individual basis they seem insignificant, but when you add them all up you may find yourself choking on your morning coffee. They "come in through the permeable membranes of the organization," says Aberdeen Group analyst Andrew Borg, hitting a variety of budgets, their collective tab often going unrecognized.
Two years ago, Aaron Ware, controller at services firm Progressive Medical, decided to do something about it. Frustrated by the profusion of wireless bills arriving each week, the company hired a consultant to analyze all the mobile devices employees used at the company. Within a few months Progressive reduced the number of telecom providers on its approved list to three from seven, stopped paying for services it wasn't using, and saw some wireless-expense categories drop by as much as 50 percent.
Progressive, a 430-person company that now spends about $300,000 a year on telecom services, took some fairly basic steps. Consultants who specialize in telecom expense management (TEM) recommend five best practices:

text: I'm looking at these low PV prices - definitely tempting! So, before I make all the mistakes everyone else is/has, can folks clue me in on some things? 1. My roof is about 210 degrees facing - just about SW exactly - and is 12/12 - 45 degrees. Am I just as well, in MA, installing directly on it? I need to roof mount due to high tree line. 2. These very low prices of $1 or so a watt - based on all available evidence, is this an anomaly or is the combo of excess capacity and new R&D likely to make prices stay low in the future? 3. Any Ma-certified installers out there who want to bid on something for me? Or, are there any co-ops or other group efforts in Western Ma or vicinity? 4. Given a budget of 6-10K out of pocket - after Federal and (if any) state credits, what size system should I be looking at? I may be limited by full sun roof space - I definitely have 250 sq feet or so.....so that may not be a limit? 5. One of my big interests is in a back-up when power fails, so I would want a small battery bank in addition to any (if any) grid tie. I may even be satisfied with no grid tie at all - that is, a smaller system which perhaps feeds a couple circuits that are always used (refrig, etc.).....and a backup circuit.....for power out (I can plug stuff into an inverter - I'm pretty handy with stuff).... It's all so confusing. I'm thinking that sometimes it doesn't pay to go big - we don't have kids around the house so keep all the lights off, etc.....and are gone a lot of the time also, so maybe appropriate technology (smaller) is better? At the same time, if the larger system is free due to more tax credits - well, call me a welfare king! Opinions?

Question about 2002 Ford Explorer
My rear passenger window regulator is broken. I took off the door panel and it looks like the window is attached to the top of the regulator. What gives? How do I replace that? I've been searching the 'net for a replacement with no luck. Can anyone help?
Posted by lincand on
my right rear window regulator needs to be replaced. Have been unable to find replacement regulator. I can only find front window regulators...HELP
O.K., but where to buy the thing other than the Dealer?
Driver side rear, cable twisted/frayed/broke... motor & mechanism fine - need only cable! Housing comes apart to replace but nobody sells only the cable! So where can I buy the whole thing cheap? Or does anybody know where I can get the cable?
My 2002 Explorer had same problem. There was one metal rivet attaching the window to regulator. Drill it out and replace it with a new rivet or bolt and nut when you get the new regulator.
Posted on Oct 13, 2009
The regulator is attatched to the glass using the rivets through plastic disks. You need to drill them out before the glass can be removed.Save the plastic parts for reassembly.Good Luck

G-Eazy to Perform at Scottsdale's Livewire During Super Bowl Weekend
Courtesy of SLE
And the Super Bowl concert announcements just keep on coming. Here's the latest: chart-topping rap wunderkind G-Eazy, the artist behind the 2011 viral hit "Runaround Sue," is set to perform at Livewire in Scottsdale on Saturday, January 31.
Its one of many blockbuster concerts and club events that will be happening around the Valley and especially in Scottsdale during the two nights before Super Bowl XLIX.

The Oakland-born rapper and onetime Myspace hit, back in the waning days of the social media hub's influence, hit it big in 2011 with his track "Runaround Sue," which racked up more than 5 million YouTube views and was inspired by the Beach Boys song of the same name, before scoring even bigger with last year's album, These Things Happen.
G-Eazy's appearance in Scottsdale is a relatively quick return to the Valley for the rapper, as he performed a sold-out show at the Marquee Theatre in Tempe earlier this month.

As we mentioned, his Livewire gig will be one offering on an already loaded buffet of music on Saturday, January 31, in the Metro Phoenix area. That night, for instance, will include CBS Radio's The Night Before shindig featuring Jason Aldean, Florida Georgia Line, and Dierks Bentley at Talking Stick Resort Arena, as well as Knife Party making their Valley debut at The Pressroom. A slew of '80s favorites like Dramarama, Bow Wow Wow, and Gene Loves Jezebel will also be performing over at Westgate.
Scottsdale will also be loaded up on hip-hop heavyweights and rappers that weekend, such as Big Sean appearing at Maya Day and Nightclub on Thursday, January 29, and Nelly doing double duty with the Madden Bowl on Thursday at Livewire followed by the Playboy party at the W Scottsdale on Friday. Drake will also host the Bootsy Bellows Arizona Takeover at the hotel on Saturday.
Meanwhile, G-Eazy's concert at Livewire will start at 9 p.m. on Saturday. General admission tickets are $48 and can be purchased online.

The incorporation of nanoparticles into composites can dramatically enhance material properties. To maximize composite performance, nanoparticles must be integrated into the composite without destabilizing or agglomerating the material. NanoComposix has extensive experience engineering nanoparticle surfaces that are compatible with a variety of aqueous and organic solvents, fluoropolymers, epoxies, and thermoplastic polymers. Examples of improved composites developed at nanoComposix through the addition of nanomaterials include the following:
- Increased composite thermal conductivity through the addition of silver nanowires.
- Modulating the electrical conductivity of flexible or fiber reinforced composites using copper nanowires, silver nanowires, or carbon nanoparticles.
- Improving the dielectric properties of composites for high energy density capacitors using shaped metal oxide nanoparticles.
NanoComposix has partnered with researchers at UCLA to develop a new class of self-healing composite materials. These composites are capable of healing subcritical damage including delamination and matrix cracking. They form the basis of a system that will continuously monitor composite health, and automatically repair any damaged areas. For more information, please contact Dr. Tom Darlington.

Title - Working Out
Rating - PG13 (at the moment)
Disclaimer - I'm only borrowing them.
Completed - Hell no...
Dr Elizabeth Weir was not one to complain, nor was she one to let others see she was hurting, either mentally or physically. Atlantis depended on her ability as a leader, and until recently that hadn't be an issue. Until Kolya had tried to kidnap her and hold her for ransom during the storm. Never had she felt so vulnerable, dependant on Sheppard to rescue her and free them all from the siege of the Genii.
Clasping the warm mug between her hands she leant back in her chair for a moment, glancing at the mission report she had been reading over. A cold hard account of the facts from Sheppard had been thorough and complete, although Elizabeth couldn't help but feel he had worded things delicately, particularly when he recounted how Kolya had announced he'd killed her. Blowing her nose again she cursed the freezing rain she and Rodney had been forced to work in, more or less with a gun to their heads as they repaired the final grounding station. She'd caught a rotten cold and had battled it for days, now only dealing with the last lingering effects over a week later.
She looked up as John Sheppard entered her office, waltzing through the doors and plonking himself down in one of the chairs opposite her desk as he so often did. He'd actually left her alone for a few days since the incident with Kolya, and she was unsure as to why exactly. They'd both been busy since the storm, relocating the Athosians back to the settlement plus making repairs to the city.
" I've been thinking..." He announced, scrolling through the pages of a something he had written on his PDA.
A thousand quick witted remarks flashed through Elizabeth's mind, but she settled on a simple
" Really?"
" Yeah... really" He replied, keeping the expression as neutral as he could. " We need to talk about getting you some training... in self defence" He put delicately. Risking a glance away from his PDA towards her face. Any embarrassment she may have felt she kept away from her face, a raised eyebrow his only reward.
" I see, and what brought this on?" She replied, keeping her features schooled into a look that was more interest and not hidden shame. Truth be told she hated the vulnerable feeling that had overtaken her during the crisis. To be forced into submission simply because she didn't know how to defend herself at the right moment had nearly cost her her life. If Sheppard had missed....
He looked at her carefully, regarding her expression as she carefully tried to conceal it. He knew the experience of being held hostage had had an effect on her, but he didn't know the extent of it. Rather than play upon her vulnerabilities he decided to lighten the mood somewhat.
" Well the whole business with Kolya could have been avoided if you'd just whacked him one the moment he came onto the base" He quipped, earning a half hearted smile from her. He knew the reality was far from what had actually happened, but the intent was the same. She didn't respond and he knew he had hit home. It was one of his jobs to protect her, but if he was taken out of the picture for whatever reason, it would help if she could look after herself in a tense situation.
He rose and skirted round the edge of her desk, perching on the side closest to her. Flicking back to the original page on his PDA he showed her the small screen, indicating a few items here and there that he thought she may appreciate.
" I want to start you on a fitness regime, I wrote a program that will work on both your endurance and your strength, and in conjunction with that, both Teyla and myself will be giving you self defence lessons" John said, figuring he'd come this far that he may as well blurt it all out.
" You organised this with Teyla without even consulting me first?" She replied with a little attitude, a little miffed that he had kept her out of the loop until the very end. He shrugged, knowing her small outburst would have been coming. If he'd seen Elizabeth first... they wouldn't be having this conversation as she would have talked her way out of it. He handed her the PDA and she flicked through the first page or so.
Elizabeth looked at the first week of the regime that was displayed on the PDA, a mix of cardio, weight and balance training that was more likely going to leave her sore and begging for mercy before it improved her fitness. She did however note that he had left her weekly Yoga class intact, a small mercy perhaps. It was the one piece of exercise she made time to fit into her schedule on a semi-regular basis, and was run by one of the counselling staff. The hour long sessions left her feeling flexible, energised, centred and more often than not sore the next day. Somehow she had the feeling that 'sore' was going to become a regular part of her vocabulary.
She almost wasn't game to flick over to the second week of her so called training, which mixed the basis of the first week with additional defensive training. Hand to hand combat, basic weapons handling and sparring sessions all added to the sense of impending doom that seemed to loom over her. There was no way she was going to fit in all this training PLUS get all her work done, and find time to eat and sleep as well.
" It looks allot more than it actually is" John started to explain, seeing her expression fall as she continued to read. " Once we get your basic fitness up, the cardio sessions will be replaced with sparring session, its just the initial few weeks that are gonna be... busy" He put carefully, flashing his irresistible smile that he knew would get him away with cold blooded murder if he wanted to.
Elizabeth knew this had been coming since the storm, and knew it had been playing on John's mind since then. As much as she hated to admit it, he was right. She needed to know how to handle and defend herself, even if she didn't get off world much. The city wasn't always safe and she'd found that out the hard way.
" Oh well, least I'll be able to eat what I want now" She quirked an eyebrow at him again, lightening the mood that had been shrouding her mind in misery.
" There is that" He smiled, relieved that she had somewhat accepted his proposal without too much of a fight. He would have tried to insist, citing her safety as his main concern, but thankfully he didn't have to play that card. Not yet anyway.
" When do you plan on starting this... tour of hell?" She asked tiredly, running a hand through her hair. She glanced at him, and prayed he wouldn't say anytime soon.
" Tomorrow.. 0600 hours, meet me on the east pier" He said smugly and bailed out of her office before she could reply. Damn him...

Hope dwindles one week after disasters
United States, other nations offer more help
By William M. Welch
A week after an earthquake and tsunami devastated parts of Japan, hopes for finding more survivors are vanishing and the search for supplies is growing more desperate.
In the town of Kesennuma, people lined up to get into a supermarket after it received a delivery of in-demand supplies including rice packets and diapers. NHK television reported each person was limited to 10 items.
Noriko Sawaki said her Sendai neighborhood is still without running water and there is no food or gasoline to be found.
"It's frustrating," Sawaki, 48, said. "This just keeps on going."
In Washington, President Obama made an unannounced stop at the Japanese Embassy to express his condolences Thursday.
"My heart goes out to the people of Japan during this enormous tragedy," he wrote in the embassy's condolences book. "Please know that America will always stand by one of its greatest allies during this time of need. … May God bless the people of Japan."
The U.S. and other foreign governments were helping their citizens get out of Japan. France and the Czech military had special evacuation flights, and Britain was planning flights as well.
The State Department offered voluntary evacuation to family members and dependents of U.S. personnel in Tokyo, Yokohama and Nagoya. The first flight left Thursday with fewer than 100 people, Undersecretary of State Patrick Kennedy said. The government plans to airlift several thousand family members of U.S. armed forces personnel and non-essential staff stationed in Japan.
The economic impact of Japan's crisis is being felt in the U.S. auto industry.
General Motors said it plans to halt production Monday of the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon compact pickups made at Shreveport, La., because some parts from Japan are not available. It is the first production halt directly linked to the disasters.
"We will resume operations as soon as we can," GM manufacturing spokesman Chris Lee told USA TODAY.
More than 452,000 people remained in government-established shelters in the devastated northeastern region of Japan. At the coastal city of Rikuzentakata, finding and retrieving bodies became the main task of crews that once hoped to find survivors.
"I think there is no hope," said Katsuo Maiya, searching for a sister-in-law and her husband. "I can't find them. The only thing I can do is wait until the military collects their bodies."
The official death toll climbed to 5,692 today, with 9,522 missing.
Fourteen elderly patients died after being moved to a temporary shelter in a school gym. Their hospital was in the evacuation zone near the crippled Fukushima nuclear power plant. Two of the patients died in transit and 12 at the gym, said Chuei Inamura, a Fukushima government official.
"We feel very helpless," Inamura said. "The condition at the gymnasium was horrible. No running water, no medicine and very, very little food."
At least some international rescue teams ended their efforts Thursday, acknowledging there was little prospect left of finding missing people still alive.
"We have no more tasks," said Pete Stevenson, a firefighter heading Britain's 70-person team.

By David Jackson, USA TODAY
WASHINGTON U.S. and Brazilian officials are negotiating details of an ethanol partnership in advance of President Bush's scheduled visit to Brazil next week.
"We are interested in forming a global ethanol market" with the United States, Brazilian Foreign Minister Celso Amorim said this week.
If completed, the planned deal would help increase both nations' production of ethanol, creating significant economic as well as political implications.
First, expanding world ethanol markets would help the USA and other nations reduce their dependence on foreign oil. Also, reduced demand for oil might reduce the clout of Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez, who has tried to use his nation's oil reserves to undercut U.S. policies in the region.
The USA and Brazil produce more than 70% of the world's ethanol; the U.S. supply comes mainly from corn, while Brazil taps its abundant sugarcane crop.
Today, officials from the United States, Brazil, China, India, South Africa and the European Commission will announce the creation of the International Biofuels Forum. The group, affiliated with the United Nations, will work to create worldwide ethanol standards.
White House press secretary Tony Snow declined to comment on ongoing negotiations.
Bush visits São Paulo on Thursday and Friday, the first stop of a week-long trip that includes Uruguay, Colombia, Guatemala and Mexico. In Brazil, Bush is scheduled discuss alternative energy sources with President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.
The presidential tour comes just a few weeks after Latin American visits by State Department officials who discussed an ethanol deal with Brazilian officials.
Undersecretary of State Nicholas Burns told reporters Feb. 13 that the United States and Brazil should work together on research to make ethanol production more efficient.
An ethanol partnership would also seek "a global market," Burns said. "This will be a big issue for the president's visit, for us to cooperate."
Burns said one of the motivations is Bush's goal of reducing U.S. gas consumption by 20% over the next decade. Bush has touted ethanol as a way to wean the USA off what he calls its "addiction" to oil.
A report this week by the Government Accountability Office said Brazil has replaced its foreign oil imports with ethanol. Brazil started its ethanol program in 1975.
Amorim said Brazil also plans to ask the United States to cut tariffs on ethanol imports.
Some members of Congress from corn-growing states have already said they oppose cutting ethanol tariffs. Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, wrote Bush to oppose some of the proposals being discussed, including a pilot ethanol plant in the Caribbean region.
Grassley said he doesn't understand using U.S. tax dollars "to encourage new ethanol production in other countries, production that could directly compete with U.S.-produced ethanol."
Johanna Mendelson Forman, who studies renewable energy at the Washington-based Center for Strategic and International Studies, said the Caribbean is a potentially valuable ethanol market because many of those countries currently buy oil from Chávez.
"Creating an independent region that does not depend on Chávez's oil is a medium-to-long term goal," she said.
Chávez has dismissed Bush's upcoming trip as "destined for the depths of defeat."

Eradication of bovine tuberculosis at a herd-level in Madrid, Spain: study of within-herd transmission dynamics over a 12 year period
Eradication of bovine tuberculosis (bTB) through the application of test-and-cull programs is a declared goal of developed countries in which the disease is still endemic. Here, longitudinal data from more than 1,700 cattle herds tested during a 12 year-period in the eradication program in the region of Madrid, Spain, were analyzed to quantify the within-herd transmission coefficient (β) depending on the herd-type (beef/dairy/bullfighting). In addition, the probability to recover the officially bTB free (OTF) status in infected herds depending on the type of herd and the diagnostic strategy implemented was assessed using Cox proportional hazard models.
Overall, dairy herds showed higher β (median 4.7) than beef or bullfighting herds (2.3 and 2.2 respectively). Introduction of interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) as an ancillary test produced an apparent increase in the β coefficient regardless of production type, likely due to an increase in diagnostic sensitivity. Time to recover OTF status was also significantly lower in dairy herds, and length of bTB episodes was significantly reduced when the IFN-γ was implemented to manage the outbreak.
Our results suggest that bTB spreads more rapidly in dairy herds compared to other herd types, a likely cause being management and demographic-related factors. However, outbreaks in dairy herds can be controlled more rapidly than in typically extensive herd types. Finally, IFN-γ proved its usefulness to rapidly eradicate bTB at a herd-level.
Bovine tuberculosis (bTB), caused by members of the
In Spain, herd prevalence has decreased since the implementation of the National Eradication Program from 11.4% in 1986 to 1.65% in 2009
The study here was aimed at assessing the association between herd type and metrics of evolution of the bTB control program in ACM, including time to recover bTB free status and transmission rate, using data collected over >10 years. The influence that use of new diagnostic tests for identification of positive animals has had in such metrics has been also assessed. Results will help to clarify the dynamics for disease transmission in ACM and to estimate the impact of alternative control strategies in one of the regions of Europe in which the disease is yet to be eradicated.
Study population
Through the twelve-year period (1997–2009) under study, 18,056 herd tests and 990,643 individual tests were performed in 1,734 farms of ACM. Most of the tested herds were beef herds (n = 1392, 80.3%), whereas the remaining herds were categorized as dairy (n = 199, 11.5%) and bullfighting (n = 143 herds, 8.2%). Median number of tested animals per round was 29, although it varied with the herd type (Table
bTB data
At the beginning of the study-period overall herd prevalence in ACM was 27.6%, while in 2009 herd prevalence was 5.54%. There were 515 bTB outbreaks reported in 444 herds, of which 330 (64.07%), 144 (27.96%) and 41 (7.96%) outbreaks were reported in 308 (59.81%), 100 (22.52%) and 36 (8.11%) beef, dairy and bullfighting herds, respectively (Table
Proportions of positive herds through the 12-year period, recurrently infected herds, and outbreaks declared in OTF herds were significantly higher (p < 0.05) in dairy cattle (50.3%, 34%, and 47.2%, respectively) compared to beef (22.2%, 6.8%, and 29.7%) and bullfighting (25.2%, 13.9% and 31.7%) cattle (Table
Within-herd transmission indicators/coefficient
Median number of reactors per positive herd-test and outbreak were higher in dairy herds (4.5 and 5, respectively) than in beef (2 and 2, respectively) and bullfighting (3 and 4, respectively) herds. The value of βt was computed using information from herd-tests in which date of the previous bTB test was available (n = 543, 66.8%). At the test level, the impact of the introduction of IFN-γ assay in positive herds yielded a statistically significant (Mann–Whitney, p < 0.05) increase in the values of βt for every herd type compared to those calculated when only the SIT test was performed, although this increase was less evident in dairy herds (Table
The βf values computed for 17 (13 beef, 3 dairy and 1 bullfighting) of the 298 positive herds in which this parameter could be estimated were identified as outliers and therefore excluded from the analysis. Nevertheless, their inclusion did not affect the results presented here (data not shown). The computed values of βf fitted log-normal distributions for each herd type (Table
Survival analysis
Eighteen and 34 out of the 515 outbreaks detected in the period of study were not included in the survival analysis due to anomalous length values (outliers) or because they were resolved by stamping out respectively. From the remaining 463 outbreaks used for fitting the two univariable Cox proportional hazards models, OTF status had been obtained in 438 (95%) of the affected herds and bTB outbreaks were still ongoing in the remaining 25 (5%) herds at the time of the analysis.
Herd type was significantly associated with time to recover OTF status, with outbreaks in dairy herds showing significantly shorter lengths (median 349 days) compared to beef and bullfighting herds (median 532 and 607, respectively), and an increased probability of resolving the outbreak faster, as indicated by the hazard rates (Figure

Outbreaks managed after implementation of IFN-γ assay in infected herds in 2006 had also significantly shorter duration (median duration 307 days) and increased probability of recovery than those declared before 2006 (median 517 days) (Figure
Figure 2
Kaplan-Meier survival estimates of time to recover official tuberculosis free (OTF) status in outbreaks resolved with (n = 98) and without (n = 365) the use of interferon-gamma assay as an ancillary test in the Autonomous Community of Madrid in the period 1997–2009
Kaplan-Meier survival estimates of time to recover official tuberculosis free (OTF) status in outbreaks resolved with (n = 98) and without (n = 365) the use of interferon-gamma assay as an ancillary test in the Autonomous Community of Madrid in the period 1997–2009.
The number of reactors disclosed in the first positive herd test was significantly and inversely associated with the length of the outbreak (hazard ratio 0.98, 95% CI 0.97-0.99) in the multivariable Cox model, whereas hazard ratio for the other two significant variables (herd type and use of IFN-γ assay) did not substantially differ (<15%), compared to the coefficients obtained in the bivariate analyses (data not shown).
Schoenfeld residuals indicated that the assumption of proportional hazards was violated for outbreaks in which time to recover OTF status was shorter than 240 days. Cox models were re-run after elimination of those outbreaks; subsequently, the proportional hazards assumption was met (P = 0.3) and results of the hazards ratios remain unchanged as indicated by the overlapping 95% CI.
Eradication of bTB at a herd level, which is prerequisite for disease eradication at a region and country level, has been impaired by the chronic nature of the disease that can lead to relatively long periods of "silent infection" in infected animals, especially at low infectious doses
The median value of βt, estimated here was similar to the values reported in Argentina
Introduction of the IFN-γ assay for the identification of infected animals in positive herds resulted in an increase on the values of βt (Table
Interestingly, results of the multivariable model suggest that the larger the number of bTB-positive animals detected at the first herd test, the shorter the time to eradicate the disease from the farm. A large number of positive animals at the first herd test may be interpreted as an indication of low probability of false negative results, thus, decreasing the time of eradication. This finding is consistent with the results obtained by the use of IFN-γ, which most likely increases the sensitivity of the detection.
Outliers were removed from the dataset before the survival analysis (10% outbreaks) and before identifying the theoretical distribution that best fitted the within-herd transmission data (6% herds) because of the uncertainty related to the accuracy of such estimations. There are a number of factors that could lead to unusual lengths of outbreaks and high values of βf (referred to as outliers) including, for example, recording bias, introduction of infected animals, or participation of wildlife reservoirs in the maintenance and transmission of the disease (whose effect on bTB transmission would be included in the same βf estimate). Still, from the decision making perspective, identification and further investigation of such outliers is of interest, because they may represent farms with particular epidemiological conditions that truly increase the risk for the disease, or, alternatively, misreporting of data related with disease identification. Nevertheless, if outliers were not excluded from the analyses the results obtained did not change significantly as shown by the overlapping 95% CI in all estimates (data not shown).
Arguably, the formulation used here to compute the transmission rate is relatively simple, because certain factors that may affect transmission, such as absence of random contact among susceptible and infected animals, management practices, or the potential role that certain wildlife species may play in disease transmission, were not considered in the formulation. Increasing model complexity would require quantitative knowledge on the value that certain epidemiological factors took in the study population that was not available to the authors including, for example, number and distribution of wildlife species or rate of contact between cattle per herd. Most important, it is uncertain whether inclusion of such information in the model formulation would result in significantly different estimates for the transmission rate compared to those presented here. In the absence of such information, estimates presented here may be useful approximations of the true value values of the transmission rate of bovine tuberculosis in Spain that allow to compare the estimates between different herd types and other epidemiological factors. This could aid in the evaluation of the impact of control strategies for different production systems. In any case, the methodological approach presented here may help the administration of control programs to identify and further investigate those farms in which unusually high transmission rates suggest the occurrence of an anomaly in the pattern of disease transmission.
Results presented here show that herd type influenced the likelihood of success of a bTB control program in an infected region of Spain and that use of the IFN-γ contributed to the success of the control program as a complementary tool in infected herds. Estimates and analytical approaches presented here will help in the design, implementation and evaluation of bTB control programs in ACM and other infected regions of Spain.
Study population
Data from every farm located in ACM and included in the Spanish bTB Eradication Program between 1997 and 2009 (n = 1,734) were analyzed. Recorded information included herd type (beef, dairy, bullfighting), herd size, number of animals tested, and number of positive animals at every round of testing. Management and handling of animals was performed according to Spanish Legislation. No data from experimental research has been included in the study.
TB diagnosis was performed according to specifications provided in the Spanish bTB Eradication Program. Briefly, single intradermal tuberculin (SIT) test was used as the screening technique following European and Spanish legislation (EU Council Directive 64/432/CEE and RD 2611/1996). The SIT test was performed by bovine field practitioners using 0.1 mL (0.1 mg, 25000 CTU) of the official bovine PPD (CZ Veterinaria, Porriño, Spain), whose potency was periodically assessed according to the OIE standards by the Spanish National Reference Laboratory using in-vivo assays, and every >6 weeks old cattle in the herd was tested. For the purpose of the analysis a bTB outbreak was declared in a farm if one or more reactors were disclosed in a herd-test, and ended when the herd obtained the official bTB-free (OTF) status. A recurrently infected herd was defined as a herd in which more than one bTB episode was declared. Although several adjustments were introduced in the eradication program in the 12 year period assessed here (1997–2009), two main stages can be differentiated based on the testing strategy used.
· Before 2006, to obtain OTF status a herd had to undergo two consecutive herd-tests at least 6 months apart in which no reactors were disclosed, and subsequently, be subjected to yearly testing of all > 6 weeks of age animals to maintain the status. To re-gain OTF status in bTB positive herds, the interval between the two consecutive tests was at least 60 days. If reactors were detected in a OTF herd but post-mortem analysis could not confirm the presence of the disease and infection was not suspected based on epidemiological grounds a herd could also recover OTF status after a single negative round-test performed at least 60 days after the removal of the reactors.
· In 2006 the interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) detection assay was introduced as an ancillary test for detection of the maximum number of infected animals in positive herds (in which tuberculosis infection had been confirmed by bacteriology or epidemiological data) to increase the sensitivity of the detection system (as contemplated in the national eradication program for regions of high prevalence as Spain); the test was performed using the same bovine PPD used for skin testing and 0.05 as the cut-off value as described previously
Data analysis
Transmission coefficient
The transmission coefficient, β, was defined as the average number of animals infected from an infectious individual per unit of time
Probability of bTB re-infection and time to recover official bTB-free status
The association between the probability of suffering more than one bTB outbreak and herd type was quantified using a Chi-square test.
Life tables were created to display the probability of OTF recovery by productive type in infected herds. Start of the at-risk period was set by the first positive herd-test in a farm, and test date at which the farm recovered OTF status was used as the failure time. Censoring time was fixed at the last herd-test recorded for those farms in which outbreaks could not be solved.
The association between herd type and time for recovery of OTF status after detection of an outbreak was explored using a Cox proportional hazards model after removal of outbreaks showing anomalous length values, which were identified as outliers if lying more than 1.5*interquartile range (IQR) from the first or third quartile. Another Cox proportional hazards model was fitted to compare official bTB-free status recovery times before and after the implementation of the IFN-γ in 2006. Additionally, a multivariable Cox proportional hazards model was also fitted using herd type, use of IFN-γ assay (yes, no), number of reactors disclosed in the initial test, and β coefficient as predictor variables. The assumption of proportional hazards in the Cox tests was assessed by computing Schoenfeld residuals
Proportional hazards models were implemented using the R software

This study examined the relation of motivational systems to patterns of autonomic responses to stress. Specifically, we examined patterns of physiological response resulting from differential activation of motivational systems for behavioral approach and behavioral inhibition. We also examined the relation of these motivational systems to threat and challenge responses to potential stress. Self-report, cardiac measures (i.e., pre-injection period, or PEP, and heart rate, or HR), and blood pressure (i.e., systolic blood pressure, or SBP, and diastolic blood pressure, or DBP) measures reliably distinguished between an experimental condition facilitating behavioral approach and an experimental condition facilitating coactivation of behavioral approach and behavioral inhibition systems. Vascular (e.g., total peripheral resistance, or TPR) and electrodermal (e.g., electrodermal response, or EDR) measures, however, did not vary by condition. We discuss the results in relation to other research on motivational factors as they relate to stress and cardiovascular reactivity.

Top 10 Best Music GamesAll the rhythm based video games the world has seen, and the best of them.
The Top Ten
This song is neck-and-neck with Guitar Hero III. I think this is slightly better. It is definitely better than Guitar Hero 5 (which is still a great game).
Great songs. Great tour mode. Definitely one of my favorites!
I got this game the day I got my first Xbox 360. I was so confused about what this game was and how it was played. When I first started playing, I sucked at it. But after a while of practice I got better much better like I was really learning a guitar. This is the one game on this list that I still haven't beaten on Expert. I can never get past Before I Forget, it's a real pain. In short, this game is a masterpiece for its music choice and its difficulty. I love it and you should too.
Guitar Hero: Metallica is the most heavy-metal game ever played. It has the best of Metallica songs. It's unlike the other Guitar Hero games. I don't even know why this is the third one on the list. This should be the first!
Great songs
A great, easy-going rhythm game with awesome graphics based on the Beatles' music.
The song selection on Guitar Hero 5 is so diverse. The game developers clearly put some effort into deciding what was going into the product, which I appreciated very much.
Best music game seriously! it has Looks that kill, Lithium, You give love a bad name and many more awesome rock hits! Its way better then Rock Band 2!
The Newcomers
The Contenders
Calling this game's main campaign the craziest thing I've ever played would be a bit of an understatement - xandermartin98
Amazing game. Definitely should be at least in the top 5.
Great music and characters. Diverse rhythmic levels. Really fun too, especially if your friends are rhythmically retarded. - xxdeadxeyesxx
This has to be the next best game. I mean, it has pro instruments to help me become an actual pro drummer, or guitarist, or keyboard player, or even singer. This game has some good songs, but this game is life changing and it helped me on my career (in REAL LIFE! ).
PS1 rhythm based game from '98. Awesome characters and music. Great for people of any rhythmic level. - xxdeadxeyesxx
Without this game all of these games above it might not even exist
Should be number one; No contest.
How could this not be on the list?!
