Associated Press
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) – Former U.S. Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens has said he expects the court has already had second thoughts about parts of its controversial Citizens United ruling that eased restrictions on corporate spending in political campaigns.
The sharply divided court ruled that independent spending by corporations does "not give rise to corruption or the appearance of corruption." Stevens, who dissented from that 2010 decision, said that at some point the court will have to issue an opinion "explicitly crafting an exception that will create a crack in the foundation" of that ruling.
Speaking to hundreds of people at a Wednesday night event in Little Rock, the retired justice said President Barack Obama accurately criticized the ruling for reversing a century of law and allowing special interest groups to pump money into elections.
He cited Justice Samuel Alito's reaction to Obama's criticism, along with one of the court's later rulings when the justices rejected a free-speech challenge from humanitarian aid groups to a law that bars support to terrorist organizations.
Stevens said "the fact that the proposed speech would indirectly benefit a terrorist organization provided a sufficient basis for denying it First Amendment protection."
He also pointed to televised debates when moderators try to allow candidates equal time to express their views. He said candidates and viewers wouldn't like it if there were an auction giving the most time to the highest bidder.
"Yet that is essentially what happens during actual campaigns in which rules equalizing campaign expenditures are forbidden," he said.
Stevens spoke in Arkansas the day after Obama presented him with the Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest civilian honor.
Aside from criticizing the Citizens United decision, Stevens also took a jab at the Bush v. Gore case after an audience member asked him about it.
"I think you have to have confidence that the justices will do their best to not make that same mistake again," he said to laughter and applause.
Stevens was nominated to the Supreme Court by President Gerald Ford, and he served on the high court from 1975 until he retired in 2010. Obama nominated Justice Elena Kagan to replace him.
Stevens recently wrote a memoir about his time on the court, "Five Chiefs: A Supreme Court Memoir."
In between signing copies of the book Wednesday night, he was asked whether he would want to sit on the court to hear the case challenging the new federal health care law.
"I'm convinced that my decision to resign was absolutely right," he said. "I'm slowing down. I've been replaced by a brilliant justice and I'm happy to have her do the work that I used to do."

Global stocks were steady on Wednesday as corporate earnings reports sent mixed signals about the economy and trading in currency markets remained volatile.
Although U.S. earnings have been relatively upbeat this week, European reports were distinctly mixed, showing some companies are still in the midst of a deep restructuring of their business. Dutch insurer ING is slashing another 2,400 jobs while French bank Societe Generale booked a loss in the fourth quarter and said it will make savings cuts.
French car maker PSA Peugeot Citroen posted a record loss in 2012 but its shares rose 6 percent as it said it was now ready to benefit from a recovery in demand next year after painful job cuts.
By midday in Europe, Britain's FTSE 100 was flat at 6,333.76 while Germany's DAX was up 0.4 percent to 7,689.87. France's CAC-40 was also unchanged at 3,685.1.
Wall Street appeared headed for a higher open, with futures in both the Dow and the broader S&P 500 rising 0.1 percent. On Tuesday, the Dow closed at its highest level since late 2007, just 150 points off its record of 14,164.53.
Earlier in Asia, Japan's Nikkei index tumbled as the yen strengthened against the dollar following a pledge by finance ministers from the world's seven major advanced economies to refrain from intentionally weakening their currencies. The Nikkei 225 dropped 1 percent to close at 11,251.41.
The Group of Seven nations said in a statement that they remained committed to exchange rates driven by the market, meaning governments or central banks should not try to influence their value.
Traders interpreted the statement as a message directed at Japan, where the yen has plummeted against the dollar since Prime Minister Shinzo Abe took office and pushed the central bank for ultra-loose monetary policy. Central bank governor Masaaki Shirakawa, who has appeared at odds with Abe's views on monetary policy, is resigning next month, giving the government an opportunity to find a successor more sympathetic to its aims.
After falling sharply against the yen on Tuesday, the dollar stabilized on Wednesday, trading 0.1 percent higher at 93.62 yen. The euro, which like the yen rose against the dollar after the G-7 statement, gained another 0.3 percent to $1.3492.
Glenn Levine, senior economist at Moody's Analytics, said Japan's steps to boost its economy, including asset purchases by the Bank of Japan and raising the inflation target to 2 percent, offer promise but come with the risk of sparking a currency war.
He noted that the U.S. Federal Reserve and Bank of England have taken even more aggressive steps but have been "less vocal, and have thus avoided setting off currency alarms."
"Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe merely vocalized what everyone already knew, that a cheaper currency is beneficial to growth," Levine said.
The Bank of Japan begins a two-day policy meeting Wednesday but analysts said no new initiatives were expected in light of the impending leadership change.
Elsewhere, Australian stocks closed at their highest level since September 2008. The S&P/ASX 200 gained 0.9 percent to 5,003.70 after the release of strong earnings from Commonwealth Bank of Australia and construction company Leighton Holdings.
South Korea's Kospi advanced 1.6 percent to 1,976.07. Benchmarks in Singapore, Indonesia and the Philippines also rose.
Markets in mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Vietnam were closed for Lunar New Year holidays.
In commodity markets, the benchmark crude oil contract for March delivery was up 24 cents to $97.75 per barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract rose 48 cents to finish at $97.51 on the Nymex on Tuesday.

Dead Zone: Season 5, The (US - DVD R1)
Gabe gets all touchy-feely and mindy readie with Anthony Michael Hall...
John Smith (Anthony Michael Hall) had the perfect life. Then he got in a horrible car accident and went into a coma. When he woke up his wife was remarried and another man was raising his son. To make matters worse he could now see images from the past, present, and future just by touching people, or the things they have touched. That's what happened in the movie. On the series there was apparently four seasons of adventures before the point I came in. I'm guessing some stuff happened.
I have no idea who these people are. No really, what the hell's going on here? This is the problem with studios sending me a later season of a thematic television series. I'm really expected to understand what's going on, and I don't. The whole 'previously, on The Dead Zone thing doesn't help.
Fortunately most of the episodes on this collection don't require me to care about the series' overall arc. In fact, I can see how the major arc would be frustrating for fans, only the first and last episodes really deal with it, and the last episode ends on the obligatory cliff-hanger. These stand-alone episodes are pretty entertaining though, and I can understand why the show is so well loved.
The dialogue is occasionally cornball, but most of the episodes are so well structured and directed that I wasn't bothered. The acting matches the direction in theatrical feel and scale. The leads are solid (with exception), but often it's the single episode guest stars that make the show (the pig-tailed professional killer was a personal favourite). The people involved with the series aren't pushovers, and even though this is the fifth season, it seems that there isn't a shortage of episode ideas here. I suppose I'm just assuming here, maybe everything here was already covered in earlier seasons.
The writers are the weak link, but defiantly not what I'd call bad. The show lacks a bit of polish, as if maybe just one more pass at the script would clean up the weak dialogue and occasional weak plot element (mostly pertaining to a series of silly coincidences). The series problems are most obvious in its general predictability. I pretty much guessed where these stories were going before they ended. The specifics usually escaped me, but the general plot is pretty easy to calculate. The episodes are still very suspenseful, proving that sometimes the value of a story is in the telling rather than the tale.
My next issue is very common in dramatic television, repetition. Though Stephen King's original story made for a nice one-shot, it just turns into an emotionally distraught, but extremely selfless psychic saving one person after another. This is, of course, unfortunately magnified by the fact that I watched the series on episode after another, rather than waiting the usual week between. I'm thinking a road series would fit the character more, like The Incredible Hulk, only with psychic visions instead of a green Lou Ferrigno.
I'm also not entirely clear on the specifics of John's powers, even though I saw the original Cronenberg film. I thought he had to touch people specifically to see their future, but apparently he can also touch the stuff they've touched. This isn't so big an issue that I can't suspend my disbelief, but I just thought I mention it.
I've never watched The Dead Zone on television, and I can't find the specs online, so I can't say what the OAR is for sure. This DVD is presented in a widescreen friendly 1.78:1 ratio. Occasionally things are a little cramped on the top and bottom, but things look pretty good overall. The transfer's black levels are lacking a bit, but are mostly free of noise. Colours are bright when needed, but do tend to bloom a bit. Everything is passable except for the interlacing and combing effects. These aren't overwhelming, but can be found at least a few times in every episode.
Everything's nicely remixed into a more than decent 5.1 surround track. The CSI discs I reviewed last year were more aggressive, probably the most aggressive TV series DVDs I've ever heard, but the effects are impressive. When Smith gets his visions the soundtrack is at its most heightened and hyper-real. Directionally stuff moves where it should, but the surround channels are a bit soft in all. The general lack of LFE leads me to believe that this is only a slight remixing of the original, made for TV 2.0 track. It's nice, but not numbingly awesome.
There are four audio commentaries, each with various commentators. The first is with actor/director Chris Bruno, his actor brother Dylan, and series producer Shawn Piller is probably the best and most talkative. Things are a little 'techie', and a bit defensive, but should entertain series fans. Star/producer Anthony Michael Hall shows up to his commentary a little late, and his track, with the DVD producer Rob Chynoweth and writer/producer Micheal Taylor, is the weakest, and the most silent. The third track features actor/director John L. Adams and writers James Morris and Shintaro Shimosawa. Like the other actor/writer commentary, it's a little focused on the technical details of filming, but features its share of laughs. The final track, on the series finale, features producers Tommy Thompson and Lloyd Segan, and writer Adam Targum (I am not making these names up). It's the most personal track, and a bit back-patty.
The deleted scenes are a bit of a surprise, because some of them are pretty good. Some even make sense of a few of the less sequential scenes. In the case of some scenes deletion was necessary to hide the final climax. I suppose it's easy to give away too much of your mystery, and I appreciate the editors and directors making the right choice in these cases.
The featurettes are super-fluffy. The first, 'A Day with JLA' (which unfortunately has nothing to do with any D.C. Superheroes) is exactly what it claims to be, a day with co-star John L. Adams. Adams is awkward, not engaging, and most unfortunately not funny in the ill-advised portrait, but series fans can get a decent look behind the scenes if they watch closely enough. The second featurette, 'The Other Side of the Camera', is a little more interesting. It seems that actors John L. Adams and Chris Bruno were given a chance to direct an episode apiece, and we get to watch them squirm. Surprisingly, Bruno's episode is one of the best, and Adams' episode is one of the most important in terms of greater character development.
It's pretty much hit and miss the whole way through this collection. As a non-fan, I'm not familiar enough with the series to get too excited about character moments, and some of the stand-alone episodes are plane bad. Overall I was much more impressed with the series than I'd assumed I would be, and there are a few moments of clever scripting, genuine suspense, and the actors are mostly in top form. I don't think I'll be catching the premiere of season six, and I won't be renting any back seasons, but I was entertained throughout. Not bad at all.

I personally think that it wouldn't be as interesting if a FAN of this series reviewed this.
Gabriel your review is great and very detailed! Thank you for that! Unfortunately I am waiting for Season 3 (I have only seen S 1-2) to be released in Region 2 with Greek subtitles to rent/buy this and watch it..

Yeah, AMH was going through somewhat of a physical transition when the first episodes were being filmed. He looked like a 60 year old serial killer at the premier of the pilot for some reason.
But good review. As a fan of the show, I myself thought season five was decent. It had its good ones and bad ones. It was much better than the fourth year, but it still doesn't touch how great the show was back in the first three years. I'm hoping six gains as much ground back as five did.
The biggest problem this show suffers is not knowing which season will be its last. They really need to figure out which one is the last and write it as such.

The Dead Zone (whose season 6 started Sunday 17th, 2007) is broadcast in 4:3....which doesn't make much sense. It is filmed in 16:9 and shown that way on the dvd. There are more than several tv shows that are shown in widescreen ; Law and Order, ER, Doctor Who, just off the top of my head. Being also filmed in HD, the picture quality would greatly benefit from being broadcast in widescreen.

Send a link to a friend
[January 19, 2013]
(AP) -- Tim Duncan had 24 points and 10 rebounds, and the San Antonio Spurs held off the Golden State Warriors 95-88 on Friday night to extend their home winning streak to 14 games.
Tony Parker added 25 points and eight assists for San Antonio (31-11), which is an NBA-best 18-2 at home. Tiago Splitter added 19 points and nine rebounds, and Danny Green scored 13.
David Lee had 22 points, Klay Thompson added 21 and Jarrett Jack 20 for Golden State (23-15).
The Spurs closed the game on a 9-4 run after Harrison Barnes' jumper pulled the Warriors to 86-84 with 5 minutes left.
Duncan had eight points in the final quarter, going 4 for 6 from the field. He also had 10 points and five rebounds in the opening period.
Golden State led for all but 34 seconds in the first half.
The teams combined to start the game 2 for 12 from the field. The Spurs' first basket came 3 minutes in on Duncan's 19-foot jumper.
Golden State closed the first quarter on a 13-4 run but Gary Neal threw in a 3 at the buzzer to pull the Spurs to 26-19. Carl Landry had six points during the run.
Landry continued his dominance in the second quarter, going 7 for 10 while scoring 15 points. He did not score in the second half.
The Spurs had an opportunity to take the first-half lead, but Green missed a hurried 3-pointer after Splitter almost dribbled the final 3 seconds off. San Antonio coach Gregg Popovich stormed onto the court, yelling at Splitter and Parker.
[to top of second column]
The start of the second half was delayed 15 minutes while one rim was replaced after officials noticed it was bent.
The Spurs tied the game at 58 midway through the third quarter when Stephen Jackson, Parker and Duncan quickly rotated the ball across the court to find an open Green for a 3. Duncan hit a pair of free throws on the following possession to give the Spurs a 60-58, their first since early in the first quarter.
The Spurs went on an 18-11 run after Duncan's free throws to take their largest lead at 78-69 with 27.3 seconds left in the third.
NOTES: Warriors C Andrew Bogut (ankle), G Stephen Curry (ankle) and G-F Brandon Rush all missed the game with injuries. . Spurs G Manu Ginobili missed his second straight game and sixth of the season. . Former Spurs G Pete Myers is an assistant coach with the Warriors.

The Spurs have swept the last four season series with the Warriors. ... Lee is the only player averaging 19 points, 10 rebounds and three assists per game this season. .

I just finished reading chapter 55 translated. Wow just wow Elizabeth even though she was trying to offer advice just sounded condescending to Ameila thats not to say Elizabeth was not right. Loosing your cool in battle can get you killed and worse off get your comrades killed too Pandora's work as a unit. That being said Elizabeth tore her apart and thats me being nice. Imagine if Elizabeth would have used her Volt weapon "Satellite" Amelia probably would have died. If the rest were impressed with Elizabeth then my girl Chiffon would have them peeing in their pants.
From what i can tell West Genetics happens to have the highest concentration of above level Pandoras in the world. Even Satellizer and Rana are recognized for their ability to evolve during battle and learn high end skills rather quickly. Being able to adapt in battle would put you in the top tier and also being able to withstand a sheer amount of punishment as well endurance is important.
At this point i feel pity for the E-Pandora's as they say there is no substitute for the real thing. Instead of trying to use them as a front line force they should integrate them into the already established Pandora force. Have them work together along with their Limiters.
Lets use Star Wars as example. The Jedi and Pandora's are similar. They are a strong fighter force withe extraordinary power. The downside is in each, people need to be born with the aptitude to be either. Not everyone can be a Jedi and not everyone can be a Pandora. The small size of their force and the sheer amount of time it takes to train either a Jedi or Pandora is substantial. Neither are an army but more like a small Special Forces Unit.
In Starwars when the war broke out. Each clone army unit has a Jedi at the head commanding. This was brilliant the Jedi had a presence on the battlefield helped their clone comrades and they had muscle. Pair your Juggernauts (Pandora's/Jedi) with your large conventional fighting force (E-Pandora's/Clone Army). I believe that the E-pandoras can be used more effectively than what the assholes upstairs want.
Also, the Governments of the world should develop a system that tracks the spacial vortex that the Nova's appear from. If they knew where the Nova would attack they could deploy their forces faster in force these 2 ideas would make up for having to wait for girls being born who are compatible with stigmata s.
Im just throwing out ideas its always fun when see where you add a little something to a story

If Elizabeth had used her funnels, it would have been over right away cause she would have just shot her from the get go. she could read all of Amelia's moves.
also, it would appear after reading the last few chapters over again, that Chiffon probably has a wicked side, such that when she fights for real, she greatly enjoys it. like in chapter 54, when she's like, "i wonder how strong they are!" its full of anticipation.

The one thing I don't get about the E-pandora project is that the e-pandoras aren't really that weak. They're going up against the TOP Pandoras in the world. Seriously, if they just fight a plain old regular pandora (like say...I dunno, Ingrid, but even she is one of top Pandoras at West Genetics)) Amelia would have a fighting chance.
Thanks for the raws by the way. I'm not quite sure if I should spoil it for myself or just wait until it gets translated (it's so far away though...)

That smile, so much like our Stella...Amelia is definitely what Stella could have been if she wasn't accepted as an el Bridget.
I really like Roxanne too - she's got a simple yet likeable personality and isn't afraid to voice her opinion on this and what she says shows quite a bit of thought behind it as well. I guess that Dr. Aoi is the 'status quo' for how the Pandora are trained and what dangers they face while in school, so everything related is put up against Dr. Aoi's 'measuring stick'. Kazuya must see how the other Pandora respect Dr. Aoi so whatever he feels his grandfather did, it better be actually something bad or else I might reach through the page and smack him.
And this might be a lil late or even crazy, but is Chiffron not only #1 rank at Genetics Japan, but also #1 rank in the world...? I mean, I'm getting that vibe from everyone who's addressed her, even from the other top Pandora that we've seen - calling her by her title moreso than her name.
Kinda like how in Rurouni Kenshin, his friends called him 'Kenshin' or 'Himura-san' while the other strong fighters near his level nearly always referred to him as 'Battousai'.

it may seem that A+E staff and GP's more often these days seem either afraid to make such calls or ignorant about injury management.
Too often i see young kids with greenstick fractures for example that went from A+E to ortho specialist just to be told "plaster for 4 weeks" and $190 thanks.....
It's largely about risk management and avoidance of litigation!
If the general staff make the call and there's a complication (never say never), then the court will likely side with the "suffering" patient and criticise the lack of "expert" referral. Further, if the general staff do make the call, then a portion of the patients will complain about a lack of "proper" treatment. Even the spread of posts in this thread shows it.
Manage the lawyers/courts and the doctors will be more willing to reduce the load on medical resources.
Children and obstetrics are the major litigation bombs that no doctor want to accidentally trigger. Greenstick is all good, as long as it doesn't involve the growth plate or some other obscure complication. Given our medicare cover and litigious system, referral to an orthopod is just logical, unfortunately.

London: Scientists have demonstrated a novel "superradiant" laser design, which has the potential to be 100 to 1,000 times more stable than the best conventional visible lasers.
This type of laser, developed by physicists at JILA, could boost the performance of the most advanced atomic clocks and related technologies, such as communications and navigation systems as well as space-based astronomical instruments.
The JILA laser prototype relies on a million rubidium atoms doing a sort of synchronized line dance to produce a dim beam of deep red laser light. JILA is a joint institute of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the University of Colorado Boulder (CU).
According to James Thompson, a physicist at JILA/NIST, the new laser is based on a powerful engineering technique called "phased arrays" in which electromagnetic waves from a large group of identical antennas are carefully synchronized to build a combined wave with special useful features that are not possible otherwise.
"It's like what happens in the classical world but with quantum objects," Thompson said.
"If you line up lots of radio antennas that each emit an oscillating electric field, you can get all their electric fields to add up to make a really good directional antenna. In the same way, the individual atoms spontaneously form something like a phased array of antennas to give you a very directional laser beam," he said.
An ordinary laser relies on millions of particles of light (photons) ricocheting back and forth between two mirrors, striking atoms in the lasing material and generating copies of themselves to build up intense light.
Photons with synchronized wave patterns leak out of the mirrored cavity to form a laser beam. The laser frequency, or colour, wobbles slightly because the mirrors are vibrating due to either the motion of atoms in the mirrors or environmental disturbances—which can be as subtle as people walking past the room or cars driving near the building.
That doesn't happen in the new JILA laser simply because the photons don't hang around long enough.
The atoms are constantly energizing and emitting synchronized photons, but on the average, very few—less than one photon, in fact —stick around between the mirrors.
This average, which scientists calculate indirectly based on the laser beam's output power, is just enough to maintain an oscillating electric field to sustain the atoms' synchronized behaviour.
Nearly all photons escape before they have a chance to become scrambled by the mirrors and disrupt the synchronized atoms—thus averting the very effect that causes laser frequency to wobble in a normal laser.
Thompson engineered a system that first traps the atoms in laser light between two mirrors and then uses other low-power lasers to tune the rate at which the atoms switch back and forth between two energy levels.
The atoms emit photons each time their energy level drops. The atoms ordinarily would emit just one photon per second, but their correlated action boosts that rate 10,000-fold—making the light superradiant, Thompson says.
This "stimulated emission" meets the definition of a laser (Light Amplification by the Stimulated Emission of Radiation).
"This superradiant laser is really, really dim—about a million times weaker than a laser pointer.
"But it is much brighter than one would expect from the ordinary uncoordinated emissions from individual atoms," Thompson said.
Thompson's measurements show that the stability of the laser beam frequency is less than 1/10,000th as sensitive to mirror motion as in a normal optical laser.
This result suggests the new approach might be used in the future to improve the best lasers developed at NIST as much as 1,000-fold. Just as important, such lasers might be moved out of the vibration-controlled laboratory environment to be used in real-world applications.
Despite its dim light, the extraordinary stability of the superradiant laser can be transferred by using it as part of a feedback system to "lock" a normal laser's output.
The study has been recently published in Nature.

Running faster then 1500mm/m
Is there any way to run faster then 1500mm/m with emc2?
Re: Running faster then 1500mm/m
tom, what is your clock speed? I can't remember what it's called in EMC, in Mach3 it's kernel speed or something similar. That might be limiting your max speeds, otherwise it could also be in your motor profiles, just a thought
SeeMeCNC Co-Founder & V.P.
Re: Running faster then 1500mm/m
Hmm do you mean Baud rate? i have been changing my speed by changing the Max velocity option on EMC
Re: Running faster then 1500mm/m
I'm not familiar with EMC, but max velocity sounds right, if that's where you limit the steppers max feedrate.
SeeMeCNC Co-Founder & V.P.
Re: Running faster then 1500mm/m
There is a separate option called feed override but that only goes up to 120%

Re: Running faster then 1500mm/m
If you are using the parallel port outputs for stepper control then the speed limit will be how fast the port outputs can be changed. It may be related to that. Have not used EMC2 is a while so cannot be sure.
Challenge yourself and be a more awesome you.

From The Files Of May 25, 1989 '89 Cove Creek, like all county streams, swelled over its banks during this month's endless rains.
Helen Overly, president of Overly-Raker Inc. of Mc- Connellsburg, has announced that effective May 17, the Overly-Raker manufacturing factory has been temporarily closed due to a Pennsylvania Labor and Industry statute prohibiting in-home sewing. Overly-Raker subcontracted with as many as 150 workers who sew in their homes and provide the factory with the materials needed to produce the line of soft sculpture. An inspector visited the local factory on May 11 and inquired as whether or not the company uses in-home workers. Such practices were in violation of a 1937 law entitled the Industrial Homework Law.
William Hine of Harrisonville will be the guest speaker at Memorial Day services to be held at Union Cemetery on May 29.

From The Files Of May 24, 1979 '79 Election night saw quite a crowd waiting around the courthouse for the results 'til the wee hours of the morning, 3:00 a.m. to be
exact, but nothing like it used to be years ago; never an election night went by that the courthouse was not overrun with rabid partisans and it never failed, someone would have to be thrown out bodily when the arguments would get too boisterous. That does not seem so long ago either, but perhaps my mind deceives me.
Children and even a few adults began to gather at the McConnellsburg Fairgrounds early Saturday morning to watch as The Great American Circus prepared for two Saturday afternoon performances. Spectators say it was one of the best circuses to come to town in recent years. Both shows were packed.
The gasoline shortage has begun to bother more than just the motorist out for a Sunday drive. Locally, there have been reports of a moderate slump in business, and the businessmen are blaming it on the gasoline crunch. Downes Motel near the turnpike at Fort Littleton reports that business has been slow this May compared to past years. Several local restaurants are blaming the price of gas and the shortages of gasoline available for a drop in the number of their out-of-county customers. Most local gas stations have not yet decided whether to close the pumps on Memorial Day or not, and say that the decision will depend on their gasoline supplies.
Bolstering the News' effort to provide current and complete coverage of Fulton County events, Dwight Harvey, 26, has recently joined the News reporting staff.

From The Files Of June 5, 1969 '69 Mrs. Richard Hockensmith, the former Mary Estelle Sponsler of Harrisonville, died in Chambersburg Hospital on Saturday as
a result of injuries received in a one-car accident on Friday evening. This was the third fatality in Fulton County this year. Mrs. Hockensmith, a resident of Seabrook, Md., was visiting relatives in the county and was being driven by a foster son, James Miller, 22, home on leave from the Army, to a baseball game at Wells Tannery.
Arson is suspected in a fire which resulted in a loss estimated between $75,000 and $100,000 at the Robert Keefer lumber mill, located near Big Cove Tannery, at approximately midnight on Friday. The owner told firemen he did not carry any insurance on the property because of the exorbitant rates on that type of operation. Three families living near the mill reported hearing muffled explosions before the fire started and that two five-gallon and two two-gallon gasoline cans were found in the debris.
An estimated 10,000 people spent the Memorial Day holiday at Cowans gap State Park, including 1,500 campers who made use of the 300 campsites and other available space until there was no more room for camping and the park superintendent had to turn many away. Even though the park facilities were crowded, the weekend passed without incident except for an alarm sounded for a 6-year-old boy on Friday afternoon when he became separated from his parents on the beach. Fearing that he may have drowned, the beach and swimming area were cleared and volunteers formed a "chain" to search the water. The boy was later found at the campsite where he had gone to look for his parents.

5250.0 - Australian Business Expectations, Sep 2000 and Jun 2001
Previous ISSUE Released at 11:30 AM (CANBERRA TIME) 23/06/2000
|Page tools: Print Page Print All RSS Search this Product
Small business confidence falls
Small businesses expect their profits to fall significantly in the short-term, according to the latest quarterly business expectations survey released today by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS).
In contrast, medium and large businesses are optimistic in both the short and medium-terms.
The survey produces estimates of the expected change in a number of different business performance indicators, in both the short-term (the September quarter 2000) and the medium-term (the June quarter 2001). In both cases, expected changes are measured relative to business performance in the current quarter (the June quarter 2000).
Small businesses expect their profits to fall by 7.4 per cent in the September quarter, with a fall of 2.9 per cent expected in the June quarter 2001. Despite this apparent decline in confidence among small businesses, profits for all businesses are still expected to rise slightly, by 0.6 per cent, in the September quarter 2000 and by 5.8 per cent in the June quarter 2001.
Medium businesses expect their profits to rise by 19.2 per cent in the September quarter 2000 and by 10.5 per cent in the June quarter 2001, while large businesses expect their profits to rise by 13.4 per cent and 27.5 per cent in the two periods.
Businesses are expecting their selling prices (exclusive of GST) to rise by 0.4 per cent in the short-term and 1.3 per cent in the medium-term.
The most pessimistic sector overall is the accommodation, cafes & restaurants industry.
In the short-term, businesses are expecting an increase in selling prices (2.6 per cent) and decreases in operating income (2.1 per cent), profit (17.8 per cent) and employment (0.9 per cent).
In the medium-term the same basic pattern also holds true with selling prices expected to rise by 2.9 per cent, while falls are expected in operating income (2.7 per cent), profit (9.1 per cent) and employment (2.9 per cent).
Details are available in Australian Business Expectations September Qtr 2000 & June Qtr 2001 (cat. no. 5250.0) available from ABS bookshops.

Victory garden
Stern and Brock strike a pose with their gardening tools. Charlie Nardozzi, senior horticulturist with the National Gardening Assn., said that after the second World War, gardening became mostly a hobby in the '50s and '60s. But then came the "back to the land" movement of the 1970s, when growing food again had serious purpose. It petered out in the '80s and '90s but has surged again today, buoyed by philosophical issues as well as economic ones, Nardozzi said.

I love the Zappos example you pointed out. If someone out there really wants to get into the "zappos core values" trick, I must recommend the "Delivering Happiness" book, written by Tony Hsieh (@zappos). Zappos really is one of the best environments / families to work with and that is what makes the company great.

After what he went through the last two seasons with ankle and foot injuries, Virginia Tech's David Wang probably has a firmer grasp of the inner workings of podiatry than he'd care to mention.
The ankle and foot issues are back. He suffered a sprained right ankle Monday in Tech's first open scrimmage of the spring.
Wang, a 6-foot-2, 291-pound senior offensive guard, will have his ankle re-evaluated today by Tech's training staff. He's considered day-to-day at this point.
"I hate to see that," Tech coach Frank Beamer said. "We need all the reps in there on the offensive line we can get. He's had trouble with injuries, so I hate to see that one."
Wang, who is projected to be Tech's returning starter next season at left guard, has a history of ankle and foot problems. Last season, he sprained his left ankle at Pittsburgh and sat out games against Bowling Green and Cincinnati. In 2011, he fractured his right foot in the second game of the season at East Carolina and sat out the last 12 games.
At the end of Monday's scrimmage, Wang was sitting on a bench with his right shoe off and an ice bag wrapped around his ankle, which was various shades of blue, green and purple. With Wang off the field, Tech moved junior Caleb Farris to first team left guard.
In addition to Wang, other notable Tech players that missed the scrimmage were starting linebacker Jack Tyler (class obligation), backup defensive end and Hampton High graduate Tyrel Wilson, backup tight end Zack McCray (concussion) and running back Tony Gregory.
With Gregory out, J.C. Coleman, Trey Edmunds, Michael Holmes and Daniel Dyer handled most of the running back responsibilities. Though Edmunds was working primarily with the No. 2 offense while Coleman ran with the first team, Edmunds looked like the most impressive back on the field.
He runs with a conviction and power that none of his counterparts seem to have. Only a redshirt freshman, he appears to already have a firm grasp on the concept of running with a forward lean to fall forward for yards.
From the little bit I saw (Edmunds had seven carries for 29 yards, including a 13-yard gain, while playing a lot against Tech's first team defense), I'd be surprised if Edmunds didn't emerge as Tech's most dangerous back sooner rather than later.
More to come on Edmunds as the spring progresses.

'Under the Dome' goes above and beyond
When the residents of Chester's Mill find themselves trapped under a massive transparent dome with no way out, they struggle to survive as resources rapidly dwindle and panic quickly. Based on Stephen King's book. Premieres Monday on CBS at 10 ET/PT. CBS
Here's hoping that, unlike other Stephen King adaptations, it doesn't fizzle out.
There's a lot to fear under CBS' Dome.
For the residents of Chester's Mill, trapped under an impenetrable, barely visible dome in this 13-part adaptation of Stephen King's novel, the source of the fear is fairly obvious: They're domed in. They have no idea where it came from or who dropped it, no way to get out, and no way to let anyone else in, leaving them at the mercy of unknown forces outside the dome and their own home-grown crazies inside.
For CBS, the fear of the unknown stems from viewers, who may be reluctant to commit their TV summer to yet another extended-mystery series. And for viewers, that reluctance to commit is compounded by the quite sensible fear that once again, they're going to be sucked into a Stephen King production that gets off to a roaring good start, as Under the Dome certainly does, only to peter out in a silly, unsatisfying solution.
After all, they've seen that King collapse happen even in his best TV works: The Stand and, in even more disappointing fashion, It, a terrifically scary miniseries that imploded when the previously unseen terror became manifest. And as a giant spider, no less, which was still better than the time-eating dust bunnies of The Langoliers.
Granted, all series and miniseries are a commitment risk, and we can all name highly praised shows that started out well and floundered quickly, sometimes by episode two. But it only seems fair to point out from the Dome outset that King's TV track record is particularly dismal.
So consider yourself warned -- and then move on to the hope that Dome proves to be an exception. We could all use a good summer TV diversion around now, and if tonight's entertaining, intriguing premiere turns out to be a fair guide, Dome could be just what we've needed.
Give this to Dome: It doesn't waste any time. We get our first mystery in the first scene, as we watch Dale "Barbie" Barbara (Mike Vogel) bury an unidentified body and then try to hightail it out of Chester's Mill. His escape is cut short by a herd of cows, one of whom is about to be domed in half in what is sure to become the show's signature image.
So now this apparent murderer is trapped in town. And what's worse for the other residents, he's hardly the most dangerous dome-mate among them.
Their first concern is that dome, what is it and who lowered or raised it. (It can't be the government, Dale insists, "because it works.") Their second is what to do when planes and cars crash into it (two of the hour's more exciting effects), or when its mysterious powers cause children to babble and pacemakers to malfunction.
But their main, very well-conveyed fear is that being trapped is going to snap the already strained threads of civility holding them together -- and holding the power-hungry Big Jim Rennie (Dean Norris) in check. Perhaps the town's newspaper editor (Rachelle Lefevre) or deputy (Natalie Martinez) can constrain him, unless, of course, they have dangerous secrets of their own.
And in that claustrophobic tension you have the main thing working in Dome's favor: What happens to these people may be of more interest and import than why it happened. Eventually, viewers will expect an explanation for the dome's appearance, but the series should be able to get along for some time without that, as long as the effects of the dome's arrival continue to play out as well as they do in the premiere.
As for those fears that the final answer will be a let-down, consider this: By my TV calculations, the pleasure provided by the first two hours of It more than compensated for the pain caused by finale. Bad ending and all, I'd watch It again tomorrow.
And Dome again next week.

Kiss Me's Heroine Make is a terrific brand – they really do make some excellent products such as the liquid liner, lipgloss and of course mascara!
I am a big fan of the original Heroine Make Volume Mascara although it has it's faults – such as being hard to remove and drying to a 'crunchy', overly firm finish.
Heroine Make's newest mascara is called Impact Frame & Curl:
This mascara comes in a rather swish packet and is supposed to give you impact (volume and length) as well as curl hold. Heroine Make mascara holds curl exceptionally well usually.
Here is the tube – a simple black one (rather than the classic burgundy) with some gold lettering:
The brush is unusual but actually quite brilliant to use – it's got one comb side which you use for the initial application, the spiky brush side to build up length and to comb through then the tip can be used on the bottom lashes.
The brush is bigger than the original one – not too huge but ladies with very short lashes may struggle a bit with this.
The mascara texture is brilliant – rich, very black, and creamy. It takes just one coat to give a lot of volume although I feel like one coat leaves it looking 'bitty', so 2 layers is best to smooth this out.
It also stays put really well as most Japanese mascaras do, withstanding tears and even a shower although this isn't specifically waterproof.
How it looks – Before:
The result is dramatic!
For me, this mascara is a brilliant one and addresses the issues I had with the Volume mascara.
No. 1: It doesn't dry hard at all, it's actually quite soft to touch which is amazing considering the way it holds curl (I find all truly curl holding mascaras a little crispy).
No. 2: It is much easier to remove than the old version. You will still need an oil based eye make up remover but it didn't take more than 2 pads to take off.
No. 3: I experienced flaking with the original version and I didn't with this one.
I also didn't have any eye problems with this despite it having fibers.
The only downsides I see are that the brush may be too big for girls with teeny lashes and the bittiness you can get if you don't give your lashes a second coat and/or a good brush through.
Verdict: This is 99% HG.
I paid about £10 for this from adambeauty.com

WASHINGTON -- Internal emails among senior U.S. military officials reveal that no sailors watched Osama bin Laden's burial at sea from the USS Carl Vinson and traditional Islamic procedures were followed during the ceremony.
The emails, obtained by The Associated Press through the Freedom of Information Act, are heavily blacked out, but are the first public disclosure of information about the al-Qaida's leader's death.
Bin Laden was killed on May 1, 2011, by a Navy SEAL team that assaulted his compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan.
One email sent on May 2 by a senior Navy officer briefly describes how bin Laden's body was washed, wrapped in a white sheet, and then placed in a weighted bag.
According to another message, only a small group of the ship's leadership was informed of the burial.

9-2 decision holds restrictions on day laborer speech unconstitutional
LOS ANGELES, CA - Today, in a precedent-setting 9-2 decision in favor of day laborers, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the district court's decision in Comité de Jornaleros de Redondo Beach v. City of Redondo Beach, striking down the City of Redondo Beach's anti-solicitation ordinance as a "facially unconstitutional restriction on speech." Citing "well-established principles of First Amendment law," the en banc Ninth Circuit concluded that the city's "Ordinance fails to satisfy the narrow tailoring element of the Supreme Court's time, place and manner test."
Today's decision sets a strong precedent on day laborer rights and stands as one in a line of successful cases brought by MALDEF on behalf of the rights of day laborers in the Ninth Circuit over the last dozen years. MALDEF represents the plaintiffs, Comite de Jornaleros de Redondo Beach and the National Day Laborer Organizing Network (NDLON), in the case.
Thomas A. Saenz, MALDEF President and General Counsel, argued the case before the 11-judge en banc panel on March 21, 2011. Today's ruling comes as an en-banc decision – a previously ruled-upon case reheard by the panel of 11 circuit court judges – after MALDEF and co-counsel the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights of the San Francisco Bay Area successfully challenged the earlier 2-1 panel decision that upheld the ordinance.
On the ruling, Saenz stated, "Today's en banc Ninth Circuit opinion resoundingly vindicates the First Amendment rights of day laborers throughout the western United States. The dozens of similar ordinances throughout the region that purport to prevent day laborers from speaking on sidewalks are now even more plainly violative of the Constitution. Each municipality with such an ordinance should immediately suspend and repeal its law. The longstanding principle that the right of free speech belongs to everyone has been significantly bolstered by this decision."
Pablo Alvarado, Executive Director of National Day Laborer Organizing Network (NDLON), stated, "Today's decision is an outcome of a struggle in the courts and in the streets that began in the early 90's. The ordinances were intended to render day laborers invisible; but the struggle against these ordinances has made day laborers more visible, more powerful. For the past two decades, the ordinances have stigmatized day laborers as criminals - now they are civil rights leaders. So this victory is not just for them; it is for every American – a victory achieved by humble people for everyone."
Lateefah Simon, Lawyers' Committee Executive Director, stated, "This ruling should serve as a warning to other cities that seek to harass or arrest day laborers who are just trying to provide for their families."
MALDEF originally filed this case in 2004. MALDEF has been defending the legal rights of day laborers in court for over 20 years.
Founded in 1968, MALDEF is the nation's leading Latino legal civil rights organization. Often described as the "law firm of the Latino community," MALDEF promotes social change through advocacy, communications, community education and litigation in the areas of education, employment, immigrant rights and political access.
