What's wrong about this story?
This story just came up from lex18 news.
How does a 5 year old have access to a loaded gun and no laws broken? Is securing loaded firearms from children more of just a suggestion??? 07/08/2013 - 03:55 PM The Cumberland County prosecutor says he will not be pressing charges in the death of a two year old girl who was shot by her five-year-old brother. The coroner says on April 30, Caroline Sparks was shot and killed by her brother while the two were playing in their home. The Commonwealth's Attorney says he believes there is no probable cause that any crime occurred. |

It would be nice to have a link to the story... But no. Not every State has laws that demand firearms be locked and/or secured.

We'd have to know more. Did it belong to somebody in the house? Was it taken off for a second or habitually left laying around loaded? Did somebody forget to lock the safe when they put the gun up?
Not enough information for a judgment for me. I would think it's the same as kids drowning or drinking toxic chemicals and dying. It can be criminally negligent, or it can be an accident |

It's a very tragic and sad event.

I think we discussed this a few months back. This was the case where the gun actually belonged to the five year old and was stored in the corner of the room. The family thought the gun was unloaded, but obviously they were wrong.

I agree with Tom about the fact that if these accidents with guns thought to be unloaded don't stop they'll be legislation. In the past two months there have been three cases within my area where kids have been killed or injured with guns.
Don't have links but in one case a dad killed either his or daughter while cleaning his gun. I believe the other two involved kids playing with guns left laying around. I really don't know what type of legislation would prevent this. Maybe lowering the standards necessary to make the parent criminally responsible or requiring guns to be locked. Neither would seem to be very effective. The parent who is negligent enough to leave a loaded guns around kids is likely to pay much attention to either. |

Seems like common sense that the parent should be held criminally liable. If not, the laws need to change so that this qualifies as criminal negligence.

I don't know all the details, just what lex 18 reported. Alot of different things could have contributed to this. In not sure if it would be like a child drowning, getting backed over in driveway, or like leaving a child in a hot car whether it be intentional or careless forgetfulness. Either way its a very sad story for all involved.

From the article linked above: "It's a little rifle for a kid. ... The little boy's used to shooting the little gun." So when we read of an event like this, the first instinct, even among those who are investigating the incident, is to assume "tragic accident" when, in fact, it's quite possible the 5 year old intentionally loaded the firearm, pointed it at his sister's head and pulled the trigger. Especially when the circumstances indicate that no adults witnessed the shooting. Kids today aren't necessarily the innocent naifs we wish them to be. Many are just as capable of committing alarming crimes as any adult. |

Locking away firearms when not in use especially when children are about seems like common sense to me. It is a legal requirement here and in most european countries.

Surely some guy that leaves his loaded gun laying around while his kids play doesn't say to himself "Hmmm I think I'll lay this gun here because there's no law against it". And likewise, the guy that kills his kid because he cleaned his gun while it was loaded doesn't say "Hmmm, I think I'll keep this gun loaded while I clean it because there's no law against it" Stupidity is tragic when it involves innocent bystanders. But there's not much you can do about it. Sgt Lumpy |

We do not need any "common sense" laws. We need to train children the safe handling and use of firearms.
San Fran had such a "common sense" law. "Must be locked up or on your person"...really effective in the middle of the night when an intruder bursts in, and in a groggy haze you are trying to protect yourself and your loved ones. (BTW: That law was thrown out by the courts) |

Angle makes his way back into the ring and finds himself tossed back out to the apron. Storm dropkicks Angle's face and sends him crashing out to the floor. Storm follows with a slingshot plancha over the top out on top of Angle. Storm picks Angle up to his feet and hits him with a wicked chop before sending him back into the ring. Storm follows and he immediately goes to work on Angle in the corner, hitting him with repeated rights. Storm continues to wear out Angle, climbing up to the second rope and hitting him with right hand after right hand, laying in with ten total. When Storm heads back to Angle though, he's dropped neck first across the top rope, then hit with a release belly to belly suplex, sending Storm flying across the ring.
Angle heads into the corner and stomps away at Storm repeatedly before choking him with his boot. Angle heads to the outside and hits Storm with a clubbing blow across the throat while Storm's head is sticking out under the bottom rope. Angle makes his way back into the ring and hits a snap suplex that puts Storm down for a two count. Angle locks in a tight rear chin lock, trying to grind Storm down.
The referee checks on Storm, lifting his arm up once, twice, but not a third time, as Storm is able to hang on and make his way up to his feet. Storm hits Angle with a couple of elbows to the stomach, but Angle comes right back with a running forearm, putting Storm right back down to the mat. Angle attacks Storm with a big kick to the back before hitting Storm with a leg drop to the back of the head.
Angle picks Storm up to his feet and hits him with a big short arm clothesline that's good for yet another two count. Angle locks in another rear chin lock, grinding his arms across Storm's face. Storm is able to fight up to his feet and out of the hold, but Angle hits him with a big clubbing blow to the back, knocking him to the mat. Angle sends Storm into the ropes and Storm blocks a clothesline before following up with a nice Russian leg sweep.
Storm hits Angle with a series of rights, then a couple of clotheslines and a nice running forearm. Storm goes for a slam but Angle avoids it. Angle goes for a slam but Storm avoids it and hits Angle with the backstabber, putting him down for a two count. Angle is able to respond hitting a German suplex. Angle holds on and hits a second suplex, and finally a third.
Angle heads up to the top rope and connects with a beautiful moonsault, but when Angle goes for the cover, Storm is still able to kick out at two. Angle locks in the ankle lock, but Storm is able to kick him away. Storm catches Angle with a quick kick to the midsection and a nice DDT, but he still can't keep Angle down. Storm tries for the superkick again but Angle blocks. Angle tries for the Angle slam but Storm counters with an arm drag then hits a big kick to the back. Storm heads back over to Angle, and Angle is able to connect with the Angle slam the second time. Angle pulls down his singlet strap and Angle tries for the superkick but Storm hits the codebreaker and a cutter, but Angle still won't stay down for three.
Storm heads out to the apron and up to the top turnbuckle, but Angle runs up the ropes. Storm pushes Angle off and leaps off the top rope, connecting with a huge elbow drop. Angle still won't stay down though, kicking out of a pin at two. Storm goes for the Last Call, but Angle pulls the referee in the way. Angle shoves the ref, low blows Storm, and hits Storm with a superkick. Angle goes for the pin and he's able to score the three count.

Although the "Touch" pilot wasn't made in time for FOX's upfront presentation in the spring, our first look at the new series has finally arrived. "Touch" stars Kiefer Sutherland as a man with a possibly prophetic autistic son who can communicate solely through numbers and help change the future.
We will say that the first trailer for the FOX show, which premieres Wednesday, Jan. 25 at 9 p.m., looks quite intriguing. With "Heroes" boss Tim Kring at the helm, we're sure to get at least one good season before it goes completely off the rails.
"Touch" will premiere its first episode in January after an installment of "American Idol," but the rest of the series won't air until it settles into its regular Monday night time slot in March.

Did China Miss The Ipo Boat?
The timing stank: For months, the executives of Sina.com had pleaded with stubborn Beijing regulators to let their Chinese Internet portal raise capital in the U.S. by listing on Nasdaq. But the officials, determined to maintain their grip on the fledgling Internet industry, refused to budge. So Sina could only sit by helplessly as foreign investors shoveled money into rivals like Hong Kong's Chinadotcom Corp. and Pacific Century CyberWorks Ltd., which used their huge market values to snare deals and expand their franchises.
In late March, Beijing finally gave Sina the green light--and top executives immediately embarked on an overseas road show to promote the listing and raise some $70 million. "It's very encouraging after all the travails and trials," beamed Joseph Tzeng, managing director of Cleveland's Crystal Internet Venture Fund, which had helped supply Sina with seed capital.
But it may all be a case of too little, too late for Sina and numerous other Chinese dot-coms that have been waiting for a turn at the great Net money trough. Not only has the massive sell-off of U.S. technology stocks suddenly dampened market enthusiasm for Asian startups. Investors have also just gotten disturbing news from Beijing. As part of a deal with Sina, China's Information Industry Ministry imposed severe restrictions on overseas listings. Net companies must exclude their mainland Internet operations from any corporate entity they float abroad.
Behind the move: Beijing wants to keep its hands on strategic industries. "There is a lot of money to be made here," says Matt McGarvey of International Data Corp. in Hong Kong, and Beijing leaders "don't want to lose it" to foreigners. Besides, recent venture capital conferences such as one in Beijing, which was jammed with financiers, seemed proof positive that investors are so infatuated with the Chinese Net that Beijing can call the rules as it sees fit.
But if the current stampede out of tech stocks proves to be the end of the Net bubble, Beijing may come to rue its high-handed behavior. Many Asian dot-coms face more daunting challenges in living up to their hype than do many of the U.S. highfliers now getting pummeled on Nasdaq. Whereas companies such as TheStreet.com already have established important franchises that produce revenue, most of Asia's hot Net players have barely launched a business. Now, the brazen meddling by Beijing has reminded investors that China-linked Net outfits carry the added burden of considerable political risk.
APRIL SWOON. Thus, a reality check is well under way. The 13% drop that took place between Mar. 24 and Mar. 31 in Hong Kong's new Growth Enterprise Market (GEM)--where many Chinese dot-coms are listed--was steeper than Nasdaq's swoon (chart). In the first two trading days of April, when the markets were absorbing the news of Microsoft Corp.'s legal setbacks, the GEM plunged a further 25%.
China plays have been among the hardest hit in Asia. Chinadotcom, backed by America Online Inc. and by Beijing's official Xinhua news agency was a resounding success when it listed on Nasdaq last year. But it saw its stock drop by 40% in three days--and by more than 60% since mid-February. The damage has spread to Hong Kong's Internet ventures, which need to succeed in China if they are to live up to investors' expectations. Pacific Century CyberWorks, the Net flagship of Richard Li that recently made a successful bid for Cable & Wireless HKT Ltd., has lost some $17 billion in market capitalization since mid-February. Tom.com Ltd., the bare-bones portal launched by Richard's billionaire dad, Li Ka-shing, also is 50% off its high since going public last month. Another victim is SuNeVision, a dot-com backed by Hong Kong's wealthy Kwok family. Much more than Nasdaq backlash is at work. The main reason for the retrenchment, says one contemptuous Hong Kong stock analyst, is that many of Greater China's dot-com stars are "B.S. companies."
Such sentiment will make life especially hard for initial public offerings from China, where companies must restructure their businesses and leave some prized assets out of the publicly listed vehicles. Consider Sina and Netease.com, a popular portal run by entrepreneur William Ding that wants to float shares on Nasdaq. They must split themselves into two. The half that foreigners can buy into will be incorporated in a Caribbean tax haven. This entity will own the company's brand, proprietary software, and its content. Its revenue will derive largely from payments from the other half of the company, the Chinese half. This entity must remain in Chinese hands and keep the portal's licenses for operating a mainland Web site. The optimists hope none of this will matter. In its prospectus and road shows organized by Morgan Stanley Dean Witter, for example, Sina stresses that this bizarre structure isn't a problem. The U.S. unit, after all, will own most of the key intellectual property and get a share of the Chinese firm's earnings.
But to investors who are already fuzzy on how the promise of millions of Chinese Net users will actually pay off, it's a recipe for greater confusion. What's more, opaque policymaking makes it hard to predict Beijing's next move. Bureaucrats could do plenty more to affect the offshore-listed units, perhaps by putting new limits on the content and software Chinese Net firms can buy abroad. The rules do not provide "as clear a corporate structure as most investors would like," says Credit Suisse First Boston analyst Jay Chang.
NO-BRAINER. Don't expect China Net fever to disappear completely. Plenty of investors still seem willing to take the plunge. Just four months ago, some Shanghai entrepreneurs with Harvard University MBAs were able to raise $43 million from major U.S. venture capital firms and other investors for a stake in eTang.com, a second-tier portal that lags far behind Sina and Netease. The key selling point was simple, says eTang founder Haisong Tang: "China is big."
Yes, China is still big. And bulls point out there is a good chance that the environment could soon dramatically improve. As part of its deal with Washington to join the World Trade Organization, Beijing has promised to allow direct foreign investment in the Net sector, so rules that now hamper overseas listings may disappear. "With time, the regulations will be more clear, and there will be proper ownership structures," says Howard Chu, CEO of portal Myrice.com. If market upheaval continues, the question is whether investors will have the stamina to wait for the turn.

Income Taxes More Popular Than Bobby Jindal
According to informed sources, (that's everyone with a pulse), Bobby Jindals SIGNATURE TAX SCHEME is not going forward. The bill must
originate in the Louisiana House Ways and Means Committee, and that body's Chairman Joel Robideaux put out this statement this morning:
"Over the last several months we have all grappled with the issues involved when considering the repeal of the income tax…I have reviewed the analysis of the policy community…my preference is that we should indefinitely defer consideration of these bills."
CB Forgotston, who originated the dead-or-alive clock on the tax swap, isn't convinced:

This web page contains a set of interactive drill & skill problems on significant figures, appropriate for students of high school math and science. Users enter a response within an answer box. When incorrect responses are entered, the user can either try again or input a new number. Correct and incorrect responses are automatically recorded.
This item is part of a larger collection of Drill and Practice Tutorials by the same author. **NOTE: The editors suggest that this drill set be done as part of a broader inquiry-based lesson. The usefulness of significant figures in isolation can be misunderstood by beginning students. There are many situations where roundoff of an answer cannot fully express the uncertainty. For additional resources SEE RELATED MATERIALS on this page.
This resource is part of a Physics Front Topical Unit.
Topic: Measurement and the Language of Physics
Unit Title: Applying Measurement in Physics After introducing the rules of significant figures, students can test their skills in this interactive drill & skill. We suggest setting up cooperative learning groups to make it a game. NOTE FROM THE EDITOR: beginning students often misunderstand or overestimate the usefulness of significant figures. In real-world research laboratories, practicing scientists commonly express uncertainty quantities as a separate numeral.

Last weekend saw the summer season get off to a hot start with the potent offering of Iron Man. Besides doing well at the box office, the movie is actually really good. So, if you have not seen it, make sure you do. As for this week's top release, it has an uphill battle if it wants to overtake the comic book hero. It has a pedigree steeped in animation with a dose of cult favorite, while its live-action counterpart has a strong dose of oddness in the promotion. Anyway, it's another week and another chance to see something on the big screen. Make sure you make the most of every opportunity.
Speed Racer. (2008, 135 minutes, PG, sci-fi/action, trailer) This movie looks weird. I cannot think of any other way to describe it. I am aware of the cartoon, although I am not terribly familiar with it. This live action version stars Emile Hirsch as the title character, with Susan Sarandon and John Goodman as his parents, and Matthew Fox as Racer X. Speed only wants to race, but when he turns down a big money deal he uncovers something much bigger that he needs to stop. This also marks the first film directed by the Wachowski Brothers since The Matrix Revolutions in 2003.
What Happens in Vegas. (2008, 99 minutes, PG-13, romantic comedy, trailer) Tell me, honestly, how bad does this movie look? It looks really, really bad. The sad thing is that I have a feeling that I will be front and center taking the bullet. The problems started with the first trailer, especially the part when Ashton Kutcher reveals the toilet seat. Just who is he showing it to? It is obvious it is for the camera, but it breaks the fourth wall in a bad way. Anyway, the story centers on Kutcher and Cameron Diaz, a couple who get married in a drunken night of partying, but before they can divorce they win $3 million from a slot machine. Now they are battling over who gets the money. Ugh.
Redbelt. (2008, 99 minutes, R, drama, trailer) I have not seen that many of David Mamet's films, but they tend to be very well written. Hopefully Redbelt will be no different. This film takes us inside the world of MMA (Mixed Martial Arts), movie making, and tough decisions. On the surface, I would say it looks like a mature version of Never Back Down from earlier this year. The movie opened last week and is expanding into wider release this weekend.
Also opening this week, but not near me:
- Noise
Box Office Predictions
Yes, this week's premiere release is Speed Racer, and it will definitely do well, but it is also going to be a harder sell than Iron Man was last weekend. This will translate to Speed Racer coming in second to Iron Man, which will handily retain the top spot this weekend. The middle of the order will be a battle of comedies with the next five films, with David Mamet's Redbelt anchoring the latter portions.
Here is how I think the top ten field will play out:
Rank | Title | Box Office |
1 | Iron Man | $54 million |
2 | Speed Racer | $39 million |
3 | What Happens in Vegas | $17 million |
4 | Made of Honor | $8 million |
5 | Baby Mama | $6 million |
6 | Forgetting Sarah Marshall | $4.5 million |
7 | Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay | $3 million |
8 | The Forbidden Kingdom | $2.5 million |
9 | Redbelt | $2 million |
10 | Nim's Island | $1.5 million |

Cedar Roof Shingles
Posted By Admin on November 25, 2013
Though many people will think of cedar shingles as going on their roof only, walls need protecting from the elements almost as much as roofs do. The problem with walls is that you either simply paint them or leave exposed wood, stone or bricks; bricks and stone develop cracks while the wood that is actually a part of the structure of your home will eventually rot and be difficult to replace. Some stone or brick home-owners use render to protect their homes but this can look very ugly on the wrong homes and cracks after only a few years. Cedar roof shingles are very versatile and work very well to protect your home while also looking great on buildings made of stone, brick, wood or even modern concrete buildings where you may be desperate to cover unsightly bare concrete.
Shingles fit together in such a way that water easily rolls down them and if treated regularly will last a long time without rotting. When eventually side shingles do need to be replaced they can be taken from the building without damaging the actual structure of the building, which has been kept safe underneath.
Wooden shingles have been used in North America since colonial times so are a great way to bring a historic or rustic feel to your home be it new or old.
The cedar shingles you buy are of course a natural product and some are going to have imperfections while others will not. The grade of shingles you choose will depend partly on you budget but also the look you are going for. On a traditional rustic home shingles with some knots and imperfections in can actually add character to your home and add something to the quality especially on an old home which has its own perfections. Shingles with no imperfections will give a pristine finish, best suited to modern homes and homes in cities and towns.
Starting from the most expensive and arguably best grade: extra grade A cedar has no imperfections at all. As well as the look no imperfections means that tiles are unlikely to crack and unlikely to leak though imperfections don't have to be a problem if shingles are laid properly.
Clear Grade B Cedar has no imperfections up to clear line: which basically means that no imperfections will show once the shingles have been properly laid.
Clear Grade C does have imperfections but they will be knots that are not going to come out or cause leaks. Utility grade D may well have imperfections and are basically left-overs not guaranteed to be free of imperfections that may lead to leaks.

CB Rod Wars Part 18: G.Loomis goes with graphite for more sensitivity while cranking
Total Score: 7.66 - GOOD
Introduction: What rod war would be complete without a stick from G.Loomis? Representing the old guard G.Loomis has a large selection of crankbait rods, and perhaps none are as popular as the 7 foot CBR845C. We take a look at this popular rod along with the GLX version in the last article in our crankbait rod war series before the final wrap up.
G.Loomis CBR845C Crankbait Rod Specifications
No Crankbait Rod War would be complete without rods from G.Loomis
Impressions: Even as the "Search for One" begins we still have some unfinished business from last year with the cranking rods from G.Loomis. We procured two G.Loomis rods for the CB Rod Wars, the first being the popular CBR845C which is the seven foot rod in the "crankbait" series and the CBR855CGLX which is a 7'1" rod and makes use of recoil guides for weight reduction. Both rods are nearly identical in specification when it comes to length, action and power with the biggest difference being the core blank material.
We start with the CBR845C from the Crankbait Series
The GLX rod is just an inch longer and does feature nicer detailing including an ergonomic composite cork butt versus the traditional plastic cap found on the 845C. The 845C features a cinnamon colored blank that separates the series from other Loomis rods and the entire blank is covered with a thin layer of gloss. The GLX rod on the other hand is a deep olive/brown color and the blank is matte in appearance.
We also procures on of the G.Loomis GLX rods with the almost exact same specifications
I have always preferred G.Loomis rods where the graphite type is clearly disclosed versus the different series rods where anglers are left to guess exactly what blend of graphite is employed in the rod's construction. When it comes to sensitivity GLX is the still the benchmark which most other blanks are measured against and I was eager to see just how different the GLX rod behaved versus the more modestly priced 845C Cranking Series stick.
The Lab Tests: We first RoD WRACKed the two Loomis rods and found that they tested very consistently with one another and the medium cranking rod average. The weight and balance point of both rods fell somewhere in the middle and though constructed out of graphite these rods exhibit plenty of backbone to better handle deep diving cranks.

With the unemployment rate at 9.1 percent, an economy in the doldrums, fights over collective bargaining rights, state's budget problems and immigration enforcement laws, preachers are finding ample themes for their sermons on Labor Day weekend this year.
Fr. Larry Dowling of St. Agatha Catholic Church in Chicago has been preaching about labor issues on Labor Day and numerous other Sundays since he became a priest 20 years ago.
This Labor Day, he'll focus on the scriptures and "definitely make the connection in the current environment of the real abuse of labor in our society in general," he said.
For the last 10 years, Dowling has participated in Labor in the Pulpits/on the Bimah/in the Minbar, an annual program of Labor Day preaching resources sponsored by Interfaith Worker Justice, a Chicago-based organization, since 1996.
The Web site of Interfaith Worker Justice (www.iwj.org) provides resources on current labor issues, sample sermons, prayers and other aids. The organization also has other ongoing programs throughout the year focusing on labor issues.
"I think workers are becoming more and more at risk and as Christians we need to step up to support those who are struggling" with unemployment, wage theft and other worker injustices, Dowling said.

A lot of his influences are from his background: his father, who was a laborer; the number of people he's met along the way who have undergone "a lot of horrible conditions and horrible treatment"; and Msgr. John Egan, "one of the great labor priests in Chicago," he said.
"A lot of this directly affects people in my community," he said. "A lot of people in my community are either unemployed or underemployed. At this point, many work in service industries."
Dowling participates in actions outside the parish. He, parishioners, and members of the community have been successful getting fair contracts for workers with most hotels in Chicago they've approached, and he often accompanies people when they are talking to their employer about getting fair wages or benefits.
Since St. Agatha is a parish that likes to reach out to the community, he said, Labor Day preaching isn't just speaking of a theory for one day out of the year.
"Part of the message is how do we encourage people to get involved in supporting workers, and I think this particular Labor Day we're going to be focusing pretty heavily on actually forming a ministry around supporting workers, particularly people in the parish and in the community around us," Dowling said.
The parish discussed the idea for the past six months and decided autumn would be a good time to "jump-start" the ministry, Dowling said.
Dowling's parish is engaged in the kind of work Fr. Clete Kiley, a priest known in Catholic circles as one of the labor priests of the 21st century, says is necessary. "Preaching on a single occasion like Labor Day has a larger impact when the community itself is prepped for this preaching," Kiley said.
Other opportunities to address labor issues include an adult education series on Catholic social teaching; "a town hall for parishioners" to share their experiences as workers; an active peace and justice program; and when a significant labor-related issue in the community occurs, he said.
Preaching about labor issues this year is important, he said, "because there are a number of disturbing developments in our country related to workers and their rights." Some of these he listed in an e-mail: the assault on collective bargaining in Wisconsin and on unions elsewhere, the largest income gap in the history of the U.S., companies' illegal practices, and the assaults on the middle class and on immigrants.
He pointed out that many of the issues Pope Benedict XVI addressed in his 2009 encyclical, Caritas in Veritate, "are borne out right in front of us this year: government interfering in unions' ability to work on behalf of their members; massive numbers of migrant workers globally; the growth in income disparity. That is why this year is different: All the concerns he raised are full-blown and right in front of us, even here in the U.S.," Kiley said.
Baldwin Park, Calif., is an area with 16 percent unemployment, said Fr. Michael Gutierrez, pastor of St. John the Baptist Church there. A number of his congregants are undocumented; about 80 percent of his congregation is Spanish-speaking and the other 20 percent is Filipino.
He preaches on labor issues throughout the year, and especially now, he said, because many parishioners are worried about the supermarket strike involving Albertsons, Ralphs and Vons employees in Southern California.
"Corporations, especially big conglomerates, don't always care about the little guy or little gal, and our church has always been, historically, with the worker," Gutierrez said.
It's confusing for parishioners sometimes, he said, because during an election, some may vote for a very anti-labor candidate who appeals to them because of another issue. Also, speaking of labor "leads to opposition at times" because people, when the issue doesn't affect them, aren't aware that the issue might affect other congregants, he said.
If parishes really want to touch lives, he said, he believes that "finding justice" in the workplace, in obtaining citizenship, and, basically, in the rights for everyone to have a place in U.S. society, will be effective, he said.
One example of his parish performing outreach was when an employer of a well-known company harassed a parishioner and her fellow parishioners stood with her. The worker was Filipino, not Latino, he said, so this event got parishioners' attention because it shows that everyone, not just Latinos, can be targeted.
Corporations "go after any type of worker who opens their mouth, saying treat me right," he said, and sometimes "the manager paints them as rebellious and not really a team player."
"That's the sadness today," he said.
Fr. Richard Vosko, sacramental minister at St. Vincent de Paul Church in Albany, N.Y., has been preaching about labor and justice issues the whole 42 years he's been a priest. This year he's not preaching on Labor Day, but will be preaching about the Sept. 11 anniversary. But labor has a tie-in with Sept. 11 because of the firefighters, police officers and others who served on that day.
"I intend to talk about the workers at the sites whose lives were lost or whose lives were completely changed because of the experience," Vosko said. Sometime in September he's more than likely to talk about labor issues, which is what he usually does, he said.
For his homily, he intends to honor those whose lives were lost on Sept. 11 and also talk about the fear Americans have of Muslims. He'll draw from at least two documents: a statement from the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops' Committee on Divine Worship, "which suggests that we talk about the injustices that we heap upon our neighbors and that our neighbors heap upon us and how we should forgive them"; and Pax Christi's statement "On the Tenth Anniversary of 9-11: The Things That Make for Peace," which recognizes the magnitude of the country's grief and also that now people need to find the courage to "break the spiral of violence," according to the statement.
That Sunday's Gospel is the story in which Jesus tells his disciples to forgive their offenders 77 times.
Vosko takes current events and relates them to the local congregation, which represents at least 50 different zip codes, he said. He also is a liturgical design consultant, working with churches and synagogues, so construction labor is another issue of which he is closely aware.
"If our worship of God involves remembering the life and death and suffering and miracles and resurrection and ascension of Jesus Christ, then we can't ignore what we were taught by Jesus as we relate those stories and the Gospels in our sermons," Vosko said.
He views giving a homily as a privilege, he said, and although whenever a homily is given it is just one person voicing his views, he thinks it would be an interesting idea to have a "talk back" session where parishioners can say what they agree or disagree with regarding the homily and why.
"I see my job as raising up the issues, connecting God's word to our everyday situations, not making it ethereal," Vosko said.
There's this notion Americans have, Vosko said, of considering how lucky they are that something didn't happen to them. However, Vosko said, that can create this difficulty: How do you get someone to get involved when the issue doesn't directly affect them?
Having the Labor Day message extend beyond that Monday in September is a challenge, Vosko and others said, but Vosko hopes by offering specific questions and specific examples as well as parishioners being actively present at the Mass, people will be challenged and inspired to do some form of justice work.

Despite international calls for reform, the North Korean government is doing its best to maintain the domestic status quo -- and with good reason, at least from its perspective. Still, change is coming in very slow motion thanks to international aid and illegal exchanges with the outside world, which are eroding Pyongyang's legitimacy.

Speaking at the GallifreyOne convention in Los Angeles, Patrick Troughton's son Michael said that he had recently recorded a commentary on the life of his father to be included as a feature for The Ice Warriors. There are no details as yet over whether the incomplete story will be an individual DVD release or form part of a boxed set.
On the subject of incomplete stories, Nicholas Pegg reported on Twitter that he was "into the final furlong of the Shada DVD production subtitles, and still unearthing previously unknown trivia bombshells!«" Earlier he said: "Researching the full facts and events of the Shada cancellation for the DVD info text. It's awfully sad. They so nearly made it!«"
Ed Stradling has made the following appeal: "if any Doctor Who fans out there know the whereabouts of any of the original models from Terror of the Zygons, could you let me know? Thanks«"
Talking about the forthcoming The Face of Evil (out 5th March), Chris Chapman said on Twitter: 'Into the Wild' features an exclusive chat with the child voice of Xoanon, then-schoolboy Anthony Frieze! Yes, I can tell you are excited!« It also features Louise Jameson, Philip Hinchcliffe, Austin Ruddy, Mat Irvine and an archive interview with Pennant Roberts.« But the big star of the doco is Mat Irvine's AMAZING Tom Baker mountain face!«"
Chapman also discussed the documentary The Show Must Go On, to be included on the DVD of The Greatest Show in the Galaxy: "The guest line-up (Aldred, Wareing, Reddington, Laskey, Tucker, Cartmel and JNT archive) now has an added cameo from the Bus Conductor Robot!« Worth saying that the doco and commentary feature an almost completely different line-up of guests - virtually no crossover!« Doco is clocking in just over 30mins, which I think is our longest yet.« It includes the words 'doormat', 'rat-bucket' and 'I was a bit too male for that'« ... Fiddling on with our doco - one last scan through the 'studio' footage... looking for things that went wrong!« ... Just added a bit of swearing - will have to bleep that one out!«" Today, he added: "We're just finishing our Greatest Show doco - which is a great chance to say how flippin' brilliant Who was at that time!«".
The latest edition of Nothing at the End of the Lane reports that some 90 seconds of behind-the-scenes footage had been captured on 8mm film during the recording of Robot on location at Wood Norton Hall by an extra in the story, Roger Squires; the material may appear on a future DVD release.
DVD range producer Dan Hall updated Doctor Who Magazine on the status of the recently rediscovered episodes of Galaxy 4 and The Underwater Menace: "There's one release that hasn't been announced yet which will provide a home for one of them. And there's a potential release that will provide a home for the other one as well. People aren't going to see them out on DVD in 2012, though. But they are on our schedule."
Hall also indicated that other special editions might be on the way: "I'm hoping that Vengeance on Varos will be the first of our single Revisitations imprint. So we'll see how Varos does and I've certainly got my sights on some future titles. (on choosing the titles) It's a mixture of things. I'll sit down with the Restoration Team and say 'What do you think could look a lot better now than it did on its first release?' Another consideration is looking at the extras that are on the existing DVD, and seeing if there's really basic stuff missing. I'm very proud of the idea that the DVDs form a kind of encyclopaedia."

I spilled some gasoline from a mower can onto my car's backseat carpet. It wasn't much. Not even enough to blot up. But smell? Man, this stuff stinks enough that I can only drive with my windows open.
Any tips on dealing with it? I did it one time before and it took a couple months for it to go away.
Apr 23, 2012 at 7:53 pm #1870455I assume that you blotted up all of the liquid. You might find something intermediate to dissolve anything remaining in the carpet padding. Then the final stage is spray Febreeze to neutralize odor. If you get too aggressive, you will kill the carpet padding.
Apr 23, 2012 at 7:57 pm #1870456Quit filling your lawnmower in your backseat!!! ;-)
Apr 23, 2012 at 8:07 pm #1870461I would use a compressor if you have it. Keep it outside the car and just pull the hose in and blow it as dry as you can.
A blower works too, but definitively keep it outside the car.Apr 23, 2012 at 8:32 pm #1870470Stephen,
Good point. I'll start filling it in the front seat where the light is better.
Apr 23, 2012 at 9:19 pm #1870486If you park in the sun when available the moss will die back and you won't have to mow the rear seat.
Apr 24, 2012 at 6:50 am #1870548Use a match to burn it off : )
Apr 24, 2012 at 7:44 am #1870566Bob,
Thanks for the Febreeze idea. I found a bottle in my laundry area. Didn't know that I had it or what it was for until I read your post.
Apr 24, 2012 at 7:52 am #1870567I would use Dawn dish detergent and a wet vac or carpet cleaning vac. Wet the area with warm water, drop of Dawn, scrub it a little, suck it up, repeat. The Dawn will break up the gasoline/oiliness of it and allow it to come out.
Apr 24, 2012 at 5:38 pm #1870783Throw some cat litter down to soak up the gasoline and couple pieces of barbecue charcoal. Then hit it with febreeze.
TerryApr 24, 2012 at 10:19 pm #1870887This is a my day job – designing clean ups of contaminated soil and groundwater, most often with fuels.
Be glad it was gasoline instead of diesel.
Gasoline is very volatile and if you move a lot of air through there, it will evaporate more quickly. By a lot of air, I mean a box fan. Leave the doors open when security allows. Leave the windows open when weather allows – you'll get less of the volatiles redepositing on other materials in the car.
Heat definitely helps because the vapor pressure doubles for every 20F you raise the temp. So you could aim a hair dryer at it (with the doors open), as long as you keep checking that you're not getting it too hot. You can touch (barely) a 140F surface and anything in your car is good to >140F because the interior can get that hot on a sunny day. That heat and air flow from the hair dryer will remove the volatiles 50-100X faster than just leaving the doors open on a 70-80F day. Never leave the hair dryer going without setting an alarm to go back and check on it. 1-2 minutes at first. Then for 5 minutes if it's not too hot yet, then every 10-15 minutes.
Apr 25, 2012 at 7:39 am #1870965It's probably disapated enough that there isn't a threat of combustion from the hair dryer, right David?
Apr 25, 2012 at 8:02 am #1870976I've tried every (serious) suggestion given here and the gas smell is going away much faster than last time I experienced this.
I just added David's suggestion of heat so the process should speed up even more.
Thanks for the ideas.
I can hardly wait to spill some more so I can apply all of my new found tricks.
Maybe I'm ready for diesel?
Apr 25, 2012 at 8:43 am #1870992>It's probably disapated enough that there isn't a threat of combustion from the hair dryer, right David?
I briefly considered verbally going down that rabbit trail, but I was posting 24 hours after the OP, so, yeah, although you can smell gasoline vapors down to a few parts per million, it has to be between 1.1% and 5% (volume/volume) to be explosive. All my cautions about getting the carpet too hot were for the sake of the carpet – not because of the small amount of gasoline. A glowing cigarette butt isn't enought to initiate a fire or explosion and the temps out the front of a hair dryer aren't enough either.
On the other hand, if you had VERY high concentrations of gasoline vapor, no, you shouldn't operate a hair dryer, (or cell phone, miniBic, flint&steel, wear synthetics, etc) because the nichrome wire inside is essentially a glow plug which any diesel engine demonstrates CAN ignite petroleum vapors (albeit preheated by an 18:1 compression ratio).
Apr 25, 2012 at 4:41 pm #1871183Years ago in my service station, a company was repairing a fuel dispenser. There was a small containment basin below it and a small amount of gasoline was captured there. The genius doing the work decided to vacuum up the gas with a wet/dry vacuum. Unfortunately I could not get his attention quick enough. He wasn't seriously injured, but it went boom.

Hey everyone. I have been lurking on here for a bit and decided to join since I just bought a new RedCat Tornado EPX Pro. I am not brand new to the hobby but have been out of it for many years. I raced competitively for about 5-6 years in the mid-late 80's. I owned a few R/C10s, a Clod Buster, and a Lunch Box, back in the day. I have always been a big fan of the hobby even when I wasn't racing. I just got together and sold most of my "oldies" and bought this Tornado. I have a few questions though that I wasn't able to find the answers to.
1. I want road tired when I'm bashing on the street and don't wanna shred these stock tires on the pavement. I have come to the conclusion that the HPI wheels are recommended and know they need to be 2.2/12mm hex. I also have determined that the Proline tires are recommended as well. Now I am trying to pair them up. The confusion lies in not knowing how to pair them up and not sure if it will fit on the axel with little/no modifications. I know Proline has Speed Hawgs/Road Rage etc. I am also not sure of the other specs of the stock tires(offset, inner/outer diameter etc.). I have been trying to pair these up to get a set and need some help clarifying. Please help make this more simple.
2. Growing up with the R/C10's was so much fun with the customizing of them, mainly the lexan bodies. I had about 10 of them and even though they were all very different they all fit the posts and looked great. I am guessing other than the standard motors, batteries, some upgraded parts, wheels/tires are pretty much it for this car. Am I right? I don't have any of my lexans left to even try to match it up. Would 1/10 lexans fit this buggy or am I stuck with the stock buggy body?
Thanks everyone. I look forward to re-learning this hobby and cant wait to get some upgrades.

Private Security
Slick new corporate security operations around the world have replaced the mythical soldiers of fortune like "Mad Mike" Hoare, "Black Jacques" Schramme, and Bob Denard, mercenaries who drank hard, womanized, and wreaked havoc throughout Africa in the wars that followed independence from colonial rule. Today's mercenary is more likely to wear a business suit or stand guard over an oil pipeline. Companies like Defence Systems Limited guard British Petroleum's pipelines in Colombia, Dyncorp polices the Mexican border while Military Professionals Resources Incorporated trains US soldiers in Kuwait and Iraq in live-weapons fire.
From toxic waste to the unpronounceables on your food labels, chemicals are all around and within us. Here you will find CorpWatch coverage of the range of issues involving chemicals, including pesiticides, the widespread use of petrochemicals, health and environmental impacts, and the role of chemicals in bioengineered agriculture.
Building (or rebuilding) things is a lucrative business to be in, especially in an era when lots of things are being blown up. Construction is a mega-industry with players raking in money for huge projects, from Bechtel's Big Dig to Kellogg Brown & Root's military bases in Iraq and Afghanistan. There are the small, mob-connected firms building at ground zero in New York, and even the bin Laden family, who largely built modern Saudia Arabia and Dubai. The companies who build dams, roads, schools, hospitals and military installations are a major economic and political force.
Those who own, extract, process, and sell the fossil fuels on which modern culture is (often regrettably) based make up perhaps the single most powerful industry in the world. While energy policy in the United States is made behind closed doors with oil barons, wars are fought in the Middle East over oil & gas, and geopolitics in South America is revolutionized on the power of vast oil reserves.
Food and Agriculture
The industrial food chain is complex - and highly profitable for those who control it. In India, ancient traditional grains have been patented by multinationals, while drought- and pest-resistant strains of food crops are engineered in laboratories and planted in massive monocultures worldwide. Harsh pesticides and herbicides have become the rule instead of the exception. GMO soybeans are crowding out the Amazon rainforests; meanwhile, massively subsidized, nutritionally-challenged corn finds its way into almost every aspect of the American diet, especially fast food. The corporations (Monsanto, Cargill, ADM, McDonald's, etc) behind what we eat exert power in their best interest, rather than in ours. What's good for their bottom line is not necessarily good for our waistlines, our coastlines, our treelines ...
Financial Services, Insurance and Banking
Banks, investment firms, insurance companies are integral to the operation of every industry we cover. They are the nervous and circulatory systems of the corporate world. In a world where everything - even a human life - can be assigned a monetary value; where limitless money and great risk intersect, lies opportunity for greed, corruption, and fraud.
Perhaps the most outsourced industry in the world, manufacturing covers everything from textiles to automobiles to construction to electronics and everything in between. Since international trade is largely centered on the exchange of manufactured goods, issues of globalization swirl around these corporations. Here you'll find coverage of labor and sweatshops, the environment, trade agreements, and the overarching impacts of "offshoring" the manufacture of the goods the developed world consumes.
Media & Entertainment
A very few corporations control most of the messages we receive each day, from billboards to newspapers, to radio, film and television. CorpWatch covers not only the effect of media consolidation, but also the wizards behind the curtains in advertising, public relations, and the mainstream news media.
Natural Resources
It is a mark of modern civilization that we now buy and sell what nature provides for free. Trees, water, minerals, open land - these are profit opportunities for those who can turn them into timber, dams, bottled water, diamond rings, or condominium complexes. For issues directly relating to oil, gas, and coal, see also Energy.
The cost of prescription drugs has never been higher, and pharmaceutical companies have never spent more persuading consumers that they need drugs they've never heard of for illnesses they didn't know they had. Drug companies are also spending millions defending patents and persuading the FDA to approve new drugs ever faster. Meanwhile, developing countries go without desperately needed drugs because pharmaceutical companies fear that lowering prices for the neediest is a slippery slope. Big Pharma says high prices fund research and innovation.
Retail & Mega-Stores
Big-box stores like Wal-Mart, Asda and Home Depot have squeezed out small businesses all around the world, driving down wages and quality of life where they do business, all in the name of low prices. They are the largest, slowest-moving easy targets, smaller (and yet still massive) retail chains like Starbucks, Forever 21, Abercrombie & Fitch, the Gap and others have also drawn fire for sweatshop abuses, labor violations, and other questionable corporate behavior.
Technology & Telecommunications
Technology has seeped into nearly every aspect of modern life, from the food we eat to the ways we communicate. Consequently, telecommunications and technology coprorations have gained huge power over the past two decades. Cable companies bicker with telephone monopolies over the internet; customer support for ubiquitous laptop computers is offshored from Silicon Valley to Bangalore; obsolete electronics pile up in developing world landfills, exposing children to toxic metals; and multinationals tinker with the technology of nature to make a tomato that doesn't spoil on a grocery shelf. Ubiquity, especially when it melds into the background of daily life, is perhaps the most powerful tool of corporate power.
The executives of Big Tobacco have stopped insisting that tobacco is not addictive, but have not stopped making a killing from the deadly addictive quality of their product. The steady demand, particularly in the developing world where regulation doesn't reach, breeds a booming business in smuggling, as well as aggressive marketing schemes targeting the poor, minorities, and children. International treaties and successful lawsuits have helped to slow the malignant spread of tobacco in the United States and other developed nations, but the industry remains one of the largest and most influential in national and international politics.
Tourism & Real Estate
Tourism fuels some of the biggest development worldwide. Cruise ship operators are under fire for dumping waste in the oceans and exhaust into the skies; ski resorts an golf courses scar the land and pollute waterways. Tourism is a multibillion-dollar industry that frequently puts luxury ahead of the environment, respect for indigenous cultures, and sensitivity to land use issues. Real estate, some of it fueled by tourism, but also by the expansion of business, runs up against many of the other issues we cover - water use, land use, and the use of political influence to muscle into desirable locations, often with tax-breaks as a bonus. With real-estate the latest boom (or perhaps more appropriately "bubble") industry, issues associated with development - such as suburban sprawl - have become more immediate.
Planes, trains, and automobiles ... almost every industry we cover requires a means of getting its goods from point A to point B. It could be your wintertime Granny Smith apple, shipped from Chile; or your iPod, made of parts flown in from China and assembled in California until it is trucked to your city, or flown back to your country. The gasoline in your car (which perhaps came from Detroit, Japan, Korea, or Germany) may be from Venezuela or Iraq. Almost everything you buy is better traveled than you could ever hope to be. And that translates into major profit for the corporations that own the means of transport.
War & Disaster Profiteering
CorpWatch looks at the intertwined relationship between private industry, the US Armed Forces and federal policy makers. We look at the domestic and foreign impacts of this dangerous complex.

They do not test their products on animals. They love to test them on themselves and their friends and family.
What kind of preservatives does Indigo Wild use?
For the products that require preservatives, they use tocopherol (vitamin e), rosemary oleoresin, and potassium sorbate.
What is the shelf life of the products?
Because Indigo Wild's products are all natural it is best to use them up. Zum Bars can last two years and they are still wonderful! The scent fades over time but it is still a great bar of soap. The lotions should probably be used within a year of the purchase date. Keep all products out of direct sunlight and heat. You can even put them in the refrigerator to extend their shelf life.
Do they have any vegan products?
All Zum Products are Vegan, Except Zum Bars (Goat's Milk), Zum Kisses (Honey), & Zum Rub (Goat's Milk).
Where did they get the name "zum"?
Zum is simply a play on the word "some". As in "This sure is "zum" bar of soap!"
Dirty Words
There are a handful of ingredients Indigo Wild simply avoids when it comes to handmaking their products. These words are not just dirty, they're downright disgusting. Indigo Wild doesn't and will never use the following ingredients:
Animal Tallow
Animal Tallow or Sodium Tallowate, comes from rendered animal fat. Many rendering companies get their animal lard from road kill.
Cocoamidopropyl Betaine
Cocamidopropyl Betaine is a surfactant, giving detergents their manufactured cleansing and lathering properties. It is a known irritant to skin, eyes, and lungs. Plus, it has been shown it can be carcinogenic.
Sulfates/Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS)
Sulfates/Sodium lauryl sulfate and its extended family are used in products as an inexpensive foaming agent. It's an eye and skin irritant, and products containing laureth chemicals have been found to contain levels of 1,4 dioxan, which the EPA has classified as a carcinogen.
Petroleum By-Products / Mineral Oil
Petroleum by-products and Mineral oil are by-products of the distillation of gasoline from oil. It coats skin like plastic, clogging pores and interfering with the skin's ability to eliminate toxins. It slows cell development and skin function. You'll find this inexpensive ingredient in a lot of baby products and lotions.
Phthalates are used in perfumes and beauty products to make fragrance last longer. It interferes with the endocrine system, which regulates your body's growth, metabolism, and sexual development and function.
Triclosan is an antibacterial, antifungal chemical used in many consumer products. Studies by the FDA show it may contribute to bacteria resistance to antibiotics and alters hormone regulations. It is registered as a pesticide with the EPA.
Parabens are chemical preservatives found in many body care products and cosmetics. They are linked to breast cancer as they have been found in breast cancer tumors and they mimic estrogen, a hormone known to aid in the development of breast cancer.
Artificial Colors
Artificial colors labeled as FD&C are believed to be cancer causing agents.
Propylene Glycol
Propylene glycol, a chemical derived from natural gas that acts as a penetration enhancer. It can alter the structure of skin by allowing chemicals to penetrate your skin and increase likelihood chemicals will enter the bloodstream.
Chemical Sunscreens
Chemical sunscreens absorb in the skin, thus also absorbing the harmful UV light and can cause skin damage, irritation, and increase risk of cancer.
DEA/TEA a chemical wetting agent and emulsifier for shampoos, lotions, and creams. They can react with ingredients in cosmetic formulas to form NDEA, a potent carcinogen. NDEA is readily absorbed through the skin and has been linked with stomach, esophagus, liver, and bladder cancers.
PEGS or PPGS
PEGs or PPGs are synthetic ingredients processed with ethylene oxide which is associated with reproductive effects, central nervous system depression and is an EPA classified carcinogen.
Tetrasodium EDTA
Tetrasodium EDTA a preservative made with carcinogens, formaldehyde, and sodium cyanide. It's a penetration enhancer so it breaks down the skin's protective barrier absorbing in the blood stream.
Diazolidinyl Urea
Diazolidinyl Urea is a preservative that acts as a formaldehyde releaser in body care products. Formaldehyde is classified as a human carcinogen by the EPA.
About Indigo Wild
Their people were born to be Indigo Wild. And - guilty as charged - every one of them is a true nature's child. They've banded together to thump and bump the rock and soul into every batch of Zum Bars, Glows, Rubs, Kisses, and more. Individually, their peeps are virtuosos who are oh-so major to helping the ingredients sing. But together, they're fusicians who ensure the holistic is always greater than the Zum of its parts.
They make Indigo Wild's stuff rock, balancing the rhythm that forms the backbone: Goat's milk, soy wax, jojoba oil, shea butter, argan oil, dragon's blood. They add stuff like meadowfoam seed oil, rosehip oil, and botanical extracts for bass vibes you can feel. Then they bring out the 100% pure essential oils to lay down a melody that hits the high notes.
Indigo Wild Trivia & Useless Facts
Passing down their pearls of... something. Yes, there's some wisdom in these pearls, too. Call this the "Did you know?" section for everything trivial about Indigo Wild. Herein lies knowledge, Indigo trivia, useless facts, and proof that a few bottles of wine are also a few bottles of inspiration. Enjoy.
Did You Know?
- "Zum" is a made up word? This was where the few bottles of inspiration came in.
- The Zum font on their labels was designed by Todd, Emily's husband, on a cocktail napkin.
- Zum Bars contain such a high percentage of essential oils they are considered therapeutic.
- Stores sellout of the F&M Zum Bar in an average of 4.5 days after receiving it.
- Betsy, Cathy & Annie's brother Joe owns an all natural dry cleaning company called Hangers.
- Tina hand-pours many of the products.
- Tina's husband John Paul is a famous harmonica player.
- Julie & Mary label all of the products.
- They stop packing & production every day so they can all eat lunch together. Aaaah, ain't that sweet.
- Some days they have as many as 16 dogs in the building.
- Zum Tub bath salts are jacuzzi-safe.
- Myrrhy is the dog featured on the Y.U.M. products & he was named after Frankincense & Myrrh.
- Shea butter is a natural sunscreen.
- Ylang ylang & patchouli are natural aphrodisiacs.
- Rosemary Mint Zum Mist is great for hangover headaches.
- Bobbi Brown has Zum Rub in her drawer? (as seen on Oprah)
- A well known plastic surgeon uses Zip's Scab Dab to help reduce scars.
- You can call Indigo Wild any time if there are more things you want to know.
- Andre, the soap cutter can also cut a rug?
Causes Indigo Wild Supports:
Indigo Wild loves dogs and hates breast cancer. Many of their own pups are rescues, and they are active in Kansas City Sheltie Rescue. They also have some badass cancer fighters in their ranks, and they're working with some great local charities to support cancer warriors.
Where The Indigo Wild Things Are
Before Indigo Wild touches your body, it touches these bodies. No worries, Indigo Wild is not showering with your soap singing "I'm Too Sexy" before they ship it off to you. They are talking handcrafted, handmade, hand-mixed, hands-on…which is all pretty dang handsome.
So take a spin with Indigo Wild's handy work. It's mixed and mashed with 100% pure essential oils, shea butter, meadowfoam seed oil, soy wax, goat's milk, botanical extracts and other jujulicious ingredients. It all helps to carry on some karma and magnify the mojo. Then it's flashed by the butt of a gnome, danced over by a shaman, kissed by a fairy and blessed by a goat.
Apply where your baby's body needs it moist.
Dandelion and red clover infusion in water, shea butter derived from certified organic nuts, meadowfoam seed oil, aloe vera extract, emulsifying eax, vegetable glycerin, certified organic jojoba oil, certified organic sunflower oil, extracts of carrot, hibiscus flower, echinacea, elder flower, angelica, sweet almond, avocado, sea kelp, ginseng, aloe vera gel, basil, coltsfoot and calendula, extracts of rosemary, marshmallow and chamomile, essential oils, hydrolyzed jojoba esters, potassium sorbate, passionflower oil, mango butter, oat bran extract, tocopherol (vitamin E), xanthan gum and carbomer.
About Indigo Wild
Indigo Wild's not-so-secret ingredients: goats milk, glycerin, soy wax, shea butter, meadowfoam seed oil and pure essential oils for whiff. This company runs from bad ingredients like artificial surfactants (synthetic foaming agents), petrochemicals, glycols and parabens. And they take a pass on animal testing – the only animals they test are boyfriends, girlfriends, husbands and wives. What we're saying is, there's a lot that goes on behind indigo wild's shower curtain before any products go behind yours. At Indigo Wild, there's more than meets the whiff.

The PCI card and other components in the computer can be easily damaged by electrical shock. You need to use an anti-static device that can discharge the static electricity of your body to avoid potential static damage to the cards.
1. The PCI card is placed into the anti static plastic pouch as it is packaged. Do not open the pouch before you install the card.
2. Turn off the computer power and remove the power cable from your computer power supply.
3. Remove the computer cover. Make sure that you have an available PCI slot in your motherboard to install the card. Please, refer to your computer user's manual to remove the cover.
4. To avoid possible static shock to the computer parts, discharge yourself by touching the computer case or something grounded. If possible use an anti-static wrist band.
5. When you need to hold the PCI card, please hold it on the guide or the edge of card. Do not grab the card by the board.
Installing The PCI card
Please look for an empty PCI slot. If you do not know which one is an actual PCI slot, please, read the following;
There are 3 kinds slots in most recent computers. The PCI slot is most common and is used for different types of devices from the soundcard to the modem. Usually, the PCI slot is the white-colored slot. The ISA slot is used in older computers and it is marked with a black slot. The AGP slot is only for the video card and is the most recent type of slot. It is marked with a brown slot and is located close to the CPU. It will be not too hard to find the PCI slot for your sound card.
If there is a guide blocking the empty slot, please remove the guide using a screwdriver.
Next, put the PCI card into the slot and make sure it is placed in the slot correctly. The card will fit into your slot and then tighten the screw.
Close the computer case.

See that man in the picture above? His name is Dwayne Bowe. He's a really, really good receiver who has matured over the past three seasons into one of the elite at his position.
In that span, Bowe has eclipsed 1,100 yards twice (last year Bowe played in 13 games and 801 yards) while being thrown to by Matt Cassel, Brady Quinn, Tyler Palko and Kyle Orton. Bowe also had nobody, and I mean nobody, across from him to take away any attention. Steve Breaston went into witness protection last year and Jon Baldwin has been completely useless since being taken.
Yet, people still complain that Bowe isn't consistent or the type of player who can be a No. 1 receiver on a great team. I would disagree intensely. Bowe is the best in the league in terms of footwork along the sideline, he doesn't drop passes and most of all is a great blocker. The LSU product has shown a great work ethic to improve.
If the Kansas City Chiefs let him walk, that would be a huge mistake. All of a sudden, the Chiefs would need to fill a massive hole on a team that already has glaring issues at inside linebacker and corner. Add in a rookie quarterback that has nobody legitimate to throw at, and that's a major problem.

Telecom major Bharti Airtel launched cloud computing services using HP's technology to provide software and related infrastructure to business organisations on pay-per-use model.
"Cloud computing market in India is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 40 percent by 2014. With our end-to-end telecom solutions bundled with the latest technologies like 3G and 4G, Bharti Airtel is poised to lead this space," Bharti Airtel CEO Sanjay Kapoor said in a statement.
Through its Cloud Enablement Platform (CLEP), Bharti Airtel will offer hosted Software as a Service (SaaS) and IaaS (Infrastructure-as-a-Service) applications to the small and large enterprises on a pay-as-you-go model, it added.
In cloud computing, end users are not required to buy software or devices as they are provided by service providers on a rental basis. HP will implement and manage Bharti's CLEP.

First off, where did she first hear this name? What was the ethnicity of the bearer (if there is one)? Did she create this name on her own?
These questions will help us figure out where this name came from.Based on sound and spelling, I would assume that it was a variant of the flower name Azalea, which according to this site is ultimately derived from the Greek azaleos, meaning "dry".
