I'm not laughing at the bad one liners from Last Jedi; I'm laughing at how this movie has plummeted, demonstrating how the merit of a film is not based upon ticket sales. Too much drek to go into detail, but let's just say anything Disney labels Star Wars is an amateurish knockoff of George Lucas' genius. The deconstruction of cherished characters and social justice pandering is enough to make a Tusken Raider vomit. My suggestion is to ignore the generic piffle that is Disney and savor the Original Star Wars Universe.
Symbolism in this film is NOT subtle: Luke tossing the lightsaber behind his back? Thats Rian's contempt for everything thats gone before. Luke squeezing alien sea-cow teets? Thats Disney milking the franchise dry. All that chat about "killing the past" and the Fascist/Communist book-burning? Thats Kathleen Kennedy reappropriating SW's burnt out husk to serve political agendas. Utterly DISGUSTING piece of film that will only be more despised with age.
I've been reading through the criticisms of "The Last Jedi" and I must say that I agree with a lot of the opinions. There are way too many plot inconsistencies and ham-fisted attempts at social commentary in this film for it to actually be entertaining. I found myself so distracted by the forced representation of current political issues that it completely failed to teleport me to a "long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...."
For me, the absolute deal-breaker comes when ghost Yoda burns the ancient Jedi texts, citing that they're not page-turners and that Rey has all of the knowledge that she needs without them. If we remove the thin veil from this metaphor and apply it to our own world, you'll see that Master Yoda is really burning the Holy Bible and claiming that it is not necessary. I can't be a fan of this franchise any longer.
I think the theme of this movie is "Kill the Past" which I think it did effectively. At first I thought it was okay but if I'm being honest this is just a bad movie. It will never be what I want it to be--which is fine. It is fine if Disney wants to take the franchise in this direction but I will step out the side door. Good luck
Star Wars has become so inundated with feminists and SJW's that the franchise is dead. Thanks, Disney. It's movies like this that make me wish Metacritic offered negative numbers in their rating scale
Rian Johnson should go back to school. He doesn't know how to write a script. He doesn't know anything about pacing as a director.
Kathleen Kennedy should be fired. She was handed a golden goose and is butchering it. She's also responsible for hiring (now twice!) Rian Johnson.
Nonsensical story; zero character depth or development; devoid of drama; deus ex machina galore; Mary Sue hero poser; entire subplots and characters rendered pointless; completely unaware of its place as the middle chapter in a trilogy; completely unaware of the universe it lives in; the lowest form of corporate pandering at its worst, perhaps even worse than what Nashvill has done to country music.
Luke Skywalker's soul was destroyed. The Force was turned into a maguffin. Disney killed Star Wars.
"Let the past die. Kill it if you have to. That's the only way to become what you were meant to be."
This was Rian Johnson's evil plan all along. To destroy the past and mold a glorious new future. The first part of his plan succeeded. The future he was molding is in ruins.
RIP Star Wars
This movie was a dumpster fire of progressive political agenda and pathetic story telling. Shame on you Disney and Rien Johnson.
Probably the worst film I have seen in my life. I feel sick after watching it.
Boring, answers no questions, multiple dead endings, comedy scenes completely out of place, really bad script, many characters that fade into irrelevance, incoherence... It does not entertain.
Bad writing. Utterly bad writing , plot holes bigger than a black hole, 2d characters with dialogue to match. To me it feels like a story someone has written just to spite all the internet rumors. Tossing away what the original three films

ESPN Stats and Info gives Matt Kemp the Hot Zone treatment on its blog today.
Author Mark Simon highlights several things that have ailed Kemp this season; here's one more: Kemp is getting behind in the count a lot and not making pitchers pay when he gets ahead. According to ESPN's chart, Kemp is 10 for 37 (.270) when he's behind in the count and 4 for 17 (.235) when he's ahead.
Here is ESPN's "heat map" for balls in play/strikeouts when Kemp was ahead in the count last season:
That's how you make a pitcher pay.
Onto some bullet points:

PN: Euro Boosted by Eurozone PMI Beat, But this is as Good as it Gets
The Euro was buoyed ahead of the weekend by news that the Eurozone economy continues to see its rate of growth increase.
The latest monthly set of business surveys conducted by IHS Markit for March confirm that business activity picked up pace in the Eurozone.
The Manufacturing PMI read at 56.2, better than the forecast for 55.3 and the previous monthâs 55.4
The Services PMI read at 56.5, better than the 55.3 that was forecast and the previous monthâs 55.5.
The Composite PMI read at 56.7, better than the 55.8 that was forecast and the previous monthâs 56.
In short, Eurozone growth hit a six year high with the survey also seeing the best employment growth for almost a decade as both manufacturing and service sector firms responded to surging order books.
Business optimism meanwhile hit a new peak.
âThe eurozone economyâs throttle opened further in March, with business activity and hiring surging higher. The March flash PMI rounds off the best quarter for six years and signals GDP growth of 0.6% in the first quarter. Employment growth is meanwhile the best seen for nearly a decade,â says Chris Williamson, Chief Business Economist at IHS Markit.
The Euro liked the outcome:
The Euro to Pound Sterling exchange rate rose 0.41% to reach 0.8650.
The Euro to Dollar exchange rate rose 0.18% to reach 1.0802.
The data saw markets increase bets that the European Central Bank will be increasingly inclined to withdraw its extraordinary stimulus programme that has for a long time kept the Euro under pressure.
Markets are also looking for the first set of interest rate rises to take place in late 2018 on the back of the data.
But, one analyst tells us to this could be as good as it gets when it comes to Eurozone economic outperformance.
Impressive Data Releases Unlikely to be Repeated
âSpeculation about higher rates would not have arisen if the euro zone economy had not recovered in recent years,â says Dr Jörg Krämer at Commerzbank in Frankfurt.
The economist notes that leading indicators such as the Eurozone PMI are after all already at a very high level.
âThis makes it less likely that there will be any more upside surprises,â says Krämer in a noted dated March 24.
Krämer argues that for growth to exceed projections this year and next to any significant extent, thus prompting more rapid ECB rate hikes, it would have to be considerably stronger than the solid 1.7% rate achieved in 2016.
âAnd this is rather unlikely,â says Krämer, citing the following points:
The global upturn began in 2009, i.e. quite some time ago. This makes it less likely that it will gain much more momentum now,
The fading house price boom in China means that the underlying economic problems there are becoming more visible, which poses a threat to demand for Eurozone exporters.
In contrast with the US, corporate and private debt in the euro zone in relation to GDP has barely fallen, especially in Italy.
So the process of getting the books in order continues, which in itself acts as a damper on economic growth.
Growth will therefore be unlikely to accelerate enough to exceed ECB projections on any substantial scale which is likely to ensure the Euro is kept in check.

Ear Surgery Procedure
The surgery called otoplasty and it is targeted to correct protruding or large outer ears. It is usually done in children ages 4-14. The ear reaches it`s final size around ages 4-6 and therefore it is better to perform the surgery at a younger age to avoid unnecessary suffering. Additional conditions which can be corrected are "lop ear" in which the upper ear is folded and leans forward, "cupped ear" in which the outer ears are unusually small and "shell ear" in which there is flattening of the folds resulting in a shell like ear. Long, short or torn ear lobes also can be fixed. This operation can repair congenital ear defects and make reconstruction of the outer ear after trauma.
The operation usually lasts between 1-3 hours; more complex procedures may last even longer. A cut is made behind the ear, making it invisible, to allow excess to ear cartilage. Then the surgeon will design the cartilage using cuts and sutures to get the desired shape. Sometimes non-absorbable stitches are used in order to create fold, those stitches will be under the skin and there is no need to remove them. A few surgeons prefer to make the cut in front of the ear and hide the scar behind the skin folds. In most of the cases the scar fades with time and is hardly seen. Both ears can be corrected in the same operation.
For younger children general anesthesia is preferred, for cooperative adults it can be done using local anesthetics and sedative drugs. Every operation has its risk. There is risk of blood clots under the scar area which usually absorb after few days; otherwise there is a need to drain then. There is a risk of infection involving the ear cartilage which can leave a scar. Those infection can be treated successfully with antibiotics in most of the cases and rarely require surgical drainage.
After the surgery a majority of the adults can return to their homes, young children usually left overnight for observation. The ears are bandaged with a bandage around the head to prevent bleeding and preserve the final shape. The ears will be swollen and painful for a couple of days. It is advised to avoid any activities that can harm the ears for about a month. Children should pay extra attention while playing. You shouldn`t sleep on the repaired ear for about 7-10 days

Every Wednesday night a few guys have a meal together. There is a game coupled with the meal: each one of them has to bring an "idiot". The game consists in making the idiots talk about their ideas and passions so that the hosts can have a good laugh.
At the end they will choose the "idiot of the evening". One of the hosts has invited his idiot home so they could go to the dinner together, but unfortunately he gets a severe pain in his back due to an accident that day and can't go to the "meal of idiots". Even worse is the fact that the idiot tries to help him all the time, and naturally does everything wrong and aggravates every situation.

Topic 4 - Emotional Eating
Obesity is a result of the symptom of overeating as a response to disordered thinking ????
Some folks fidget, some folks pick, some folks sleep around, some folks explode in tempers, some folks eat ???
What if that symptom (overeating) was combined with sluggish genetics and a food centered cultural upbringing.
I know from experience (mine, my friends, my clients, people here on 3FC) that there is an emotional component to nearly anyone's weight and the way they approach food. To say there isn't is ludicrous, in my opinion.
I took a class that focused on "The Psychology of Obesity" at college. It was fascinating.
I think this is where the book gets really interesting, as she's starting to make the argument that obese people are biologically different from the non-obese. Not psychologicallly different, but biologically.
So, here her point is that thin AND obese people eat from stress, suffer from depression at equal levels, etc. But only the obese ones gain weight from the behavior. I think she's saying that there IS an emotional component for obesity, in that we got fat because we overate, often for emotional reasons. But, her bigger point is that non-obese people engage in the same behaviors and just don't gain weight.
She also tries to make the point that it's not culture. Obese people and non-obese people are exposed to the same culture and yet the obese gain weight and the non-obese do not.
That is what I perceive her argument to be. I'm not sure what I make of it. I'm a cultural psychologist, and I would like to believe culture and environment are significant factors in all sorts of our attitudes and behaviors. In my work, I tend to ignore the biological to a degree. I think I carried this over to my thinking about weight and obesity.
Kolata raised a lot of points I hadn't really considered before -- and I think her argument is not really strong here. I don't know enough about the research to be convinced by it. Her argument seems much stronger in the later chapters dealing with the biochemistry of obesity.
So what's the difference? If unchecked, would I eat twice as much as naturally thin person during stress? Or is my metabolism in the basement? Ok. So naturally thin folks also stress-eat. But do they consume the same amount of calories when under stress? Looking back at some of the binging I used to do, I have to wonder. I'm ashamed to admit I'm not this far along in the book at this time so I don't know if it expands on this point. I'm trying to catch up!
I think that Kolata is heavily invested in the idea that obesity is biological and biological alone. What passed through my mind after I was done reading the book, was that she is presenting obesity as ulitmately being a disease like diabetes and sooner or later there will be a medical cure for it. I have mixed feeling about the concept of obesity as a disease.
In the sense that any eating caused me to get fat, I am sure emotional eating contrubuted. Along with my love of food/cooking/eating out etc etc etc. I don't see emotional eating as the sole culprit in my case.
I had mixed feelings on that chapter.
First, "obesity is a disease" (since it's been mentioned above) doesn't hit home for me. If you've read my other posts on the other topics related to it, you know by now what I think of 'the natural tendency to put on weight easily': it's a curse in our society, BUT 500 years ago we would have thanked the Lord, the Goddess or whoever our deity was that we were healthy and more able to survive starvation periods. I don't see how a biological mechanism designed to allow us to survive ever deserves to be considered as a disease, no matter how hard things are for us currently. (Of course, that doesn't mean I don't give a fig about gaining weight--if it was the case, I wouldn't be here! :)--but I also don't want to view my body as something fundamentally flawed.) What I *would* consider the disease is the current state of our food surroundings. That's a whole other problem in an of itself, I guess.
Second. Regarding the psychological aspect. Yes, non-obese people may engage in the same behaviours, but maybe not to such an extent. And fast metabolism or not, there comes a point when you will gain weight all the same if you overeat by a lot. I know we most often tend to use the term 'emotional eating', because to be honest, it does have a clear meaning. But maybe a more appropriate word would be 'behavioural eating' (cf. also what SusanB wrote: "What if that symptom (overeating) was combined with sluggish genetics and a food centered cultural upbringing"). We've been given tools to learn to eat in certain circumstances, for instance, so is it so surprising that we go on applying them once we're adults, and then of course it starts to really weigh on us (yes, pun intended)? Ever growing portion sizes and huge plates are probably part of this, too. The importance of our environment is overbearing, I think. This indeed probably plays a role.
Now, can we say there's no emotional component? Maybe the emotional component is here, but not exactly in the shape of food itself, and food is just a part of it. I don't know exactly how to put it. I'm not even sure I've formed a clear opinion on that matter yet. But to me, obesity is not biological only. There is a clear behavioural component to it. Whether it is only a matter of semantics or not, it is here IMHO.
So much of what everyone is saying is resonating with me.
It sounds like many of us could get behind the notion that it's nature (genetics/biology) AND nurture (environment) that cause obesity. Yet, as gail said, Kolata seems invested in hammering home the biological message, for whatever reason -- perhaps because society's message really does blame the obese. If it's biological, then it isn't our fault.
And yet, I KNOW I overate. I needed to take responsibility for my actions. Thanks Gina Kolata -- your emphasis on biology seemed to take that away. :(
Also, if it's biology, then maybe there's nothing I can do about it -- maybe temporarily, but not permanently. I was really glad I hadn't read the book BEFORE I lost the weight. I might have never tried!
This seems to be a good place to put something (Thanks Heather). I really did not enjoy this book. I felt it was a compendium of reasons to not even try. I'm so glad I have 3FC to come back to for this kind of thinking. And Anne Fletcher's book Thin for Life.
It can be done!
... sorry ... that's about as close to a rant as I ever hope to post ...
Well emotional eating IS the reason I got so heavy. I didn't get that way from going back for leftovers one time too many. I got that way from eating when I was bored, lonely, depressed?, sad, happy, angry and on and on. I do think at some point though it became habit. But that's another story.
You can then easily say, well why did I use food in those situations and to such a large extent? Why if I was bored, sad, etc.., didn't I stop at a certain point?
I do think there is a genetic component and without a doubt an environmental one. I don't think those are the MAIN factors though for obesity.
I was the cause of my obesity. Me, myself and I. Like Heather said. I take full responsibility for it. I was the cause of every single pound of me, circumstances aside. It WAS in my control. I just chose to NOT control it. I thought that I COULDN'T control it, but that was the denial I was living in.
Susan, we posted at the same time. I have struggled to get through about 70 pages of the book. I too am not enjoying it. I find it boring and pointless. I know I haven't gotten to the "meat" of it yet - but if it continues on like this, I just don't see that she's telling us anything compelling or new. I'll save my final judgement if and when I get through with it.
I wasn't bored. In fact I enjoyed the reading. It's amazing to me the work that has been done without any conclusive results. What does it mean that we've been studying this for centuries but still have no 'reason' for obesity? A book with no point?
I also wish that just once she would have talked to folks who have been successful. But hey ... maybe I'm looking for the complete works of all weight loss studies and the evidence ... all in one book. Kolata was not writing that.
It's funny. I hear on this site all the time people complaining that researchers spin their statistics and evidence. However, I wonder if people also think about the degree to which journalists (which Kolata is) do the same...
I enjoyed Kolata's book all in all. It gave me some things to think about, and the newer research focusing on leptin is fascinating. She made me believe that there is more to the biological component than I had believed. And, maybe that's because she did "spin" the book the way she did.
In the end, I don't believe that we yet have the full story (I bet we all agree on that, even Kolata). Yes, biology plays a role, and hopefully that knowledge will help us develop better medications and "whatnot" down the line. However, I also know of a number of people who HAVE successfully maintained a large weight loss thanks to 3fc, and know that gaining it all back is not necessarily inevitable. I can think of some research questions I would like the answers to (such as the role of exercise and especially weight training...).
But what I didn't like about the book is Kolata's framing of the issues -- her spin. Her certainty, if you will. Though, I guess books that sell you "answers" sell better than ones that raise more questions. I think we, the public, want "truth" and certainty, so that's what we get, even if it's not the whole answer.
I've been following the discussion, but haven't participated yet because 1) I haven't read the book and don't intend to, and 2) was pretty underwhelmed with Kolata's controversial book on exercise a few years ago. But I'm a little puzzled by this discussion.
I am both an astonishing success as a 110+ pound loser and maintainer of that loss over several years, and a failure at controlling my weight, as my BMI is still in the 'Overweight' range. But the perspective from being 15 pounds overweight as opposed to 115 pounds overweight is VASTLY different. While I am responsible for everything I put in my mouth, to get to be +115 pounds overweight I had to actively work at that, buy and eat a lot of junk food basically, with a lot of emotional, compulsive and habitual eating. To stay at +15 pounds is really easy--that is within the 200 calories a day that Wansink calls the mindless margin in his wonderful book, Mindless Eating. Pick up one candy that a co-worker brought into work, eat 3 extra bites of noodles off a dinner plate that is sized too large, the licks, bites and tastes that Meg likes to talk about. No major emotional baggage required for that.
I guess the point I'm trying to make is that, while it does happen, as an overweight person (now) I just don't do a lot of emotional eating, most of the excess is just sort of thoughtless, it-happens-to-be-there kind of stuff. Not too much different from my thinner friends. As a morbidly obese person I did a lot of emotional eating.
(Now I do a scientifically untenable thing and extrapolate from my experience to the world at large, where there are people like and unlike me.)
So which is true? Both, certainly. How do you report that in your book, if you want to be controversial, and make a lot of sales, and make overweight people feel good about themselves so they'll buy your book. You tell them, hey, you are 100% normal and this isn't your fault. It might even be true for the majority of people like me who are a little overweight. A "healthy" survival instinct in a rich environment, at least from an evolutionary point of view. There is nothing healthy about morbid obesity. If Kolata does make a distinction, I'll be forced to retract this disparaging statement, but I'm guessing she doesn't.
I loved this book, it validated many of my own ideas about obesity, which probably explains why I loved it. Human nature, we like things that validate our own beliefs. ;) And, FWIW, I don't dispute that it's one-sided. I don't think her goal was to produce a balanced look at this issue, but to highlight a side that is too often ignored. The goal wasn't to present evidence, but to try to persuade and I take it in that context.
I eat to handle emotions, most definitely, but so does my never-fat, stick thin sister. But in her, eating emotionally doesn't turn on a hunger mechanism that won't shut off after. It does in me. When her emotional issue is over, so is the eating. I can't stop mid-cookie bag though. I keep going after the emotional part is over.
I find a really strong sense in most people that I talk to about this issue, especially the successful losers, who deal with weight issues that they don't want to acknowledge the possibility that a huge component of it might be biological. It's like it takes away our power in the situation. We might as well throw up our hands and give up. It's better to believe we were bad people doing unhealthy things before and we are good people who care about ourselves now. At least that way, we have a way to change it.
I guess I never saw the arguments in the book that way. I look at them more as an explanation. An explanation that helps map out strategies for overcoming the disadvantage of genetic predisposition to obesity. I don't think that admitting there is a strong genetic predisposition to obesity lets us off the hook from solving our own personal fight with obesity. It just means we need to be aware that we can't do the things that someone who doesn't have the predispositon can get away with. We can't allow emotional eating to get hold of us. We can't let up vigilance in eating well. We might have to exercise more to increase our metabolisms more than a forever thin person might. We can't trust our bodies to just do what is right for our weight.
I also wish she'd looked at successful losers and tried to figure out what worked for them. I think of the things we already know that make successful maintainers, daily exercise, constant weight monitoring, continued focus on food and healthy eating. Those things are what successful maintainers do. They *aren't* what the never been fat folks do.
If there was no biological component to obesity, wouldn't we be able to behave like the never fat people once we got thin? Couldn't we exercise sporadically? Couldn't we stuff our faces from Thanksgiving to Christmas & not worry about it? Couldn't we have cookies everyday with our kids?

OK, I'm going to be the boat rocker and I'll rock it with a quote from Sam Harris; " ...the very ideal of religious tolerance—born of the notion that every human being should be free to believe whatever he wants about God—is one of the principal forces driving us toward the abyss." It's that quote from The End of Faith, and that book that really turned me around. I'm not sure when I stopped believing but I am sure when I stopped pretending and it was about halfway through his book.
Lauren and I love our family but we constantly have to decide what to do in your situation regarding being dragged to church, and with even more uncomfortable situations like everyone standing in a circle holding hands and blessing the damn food ...better yet, figuring out how to respond to the insistent "bless you's" when one of us is unfortunate enough to sneeze.
It is my personal opinion (as not to decide for everyone) that this site is a place to learn how to graciously resist the social, familial, and governmental pressures to conform to expectations based on an archaic religion that should have been kicked to the curb decades ago.
I feel a huge responsibility to spread reason where I live.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass. - Loyola coach Jimmy Patsos turned and pumped his fists in the direction of the team's cheering section during the second half of Monday night's Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference men's basketball title game. There was still a long way to go, but you could tell the ever-energized Patsos liked the way his team was playing.
His appreciation was rewarded. But it wasn't easy.
The Greyhounds held Fairfield scoreless in the final 1:01 of the first half and then 7:47 into the second, allowing Loyola to post a 48-44 victory that gave Loyola (24-8) its first MAAC championship since 1994 and an automatic bid to the NCAA tournament.

Brain Research Foundation 2013 Scientific Innovations Awards To Dr. Jean Hebert and Dr. Brian Litt
Nanodevices as delivery mechanism to the brain and improved cognitive function are research topics selected from large pool of submissions.
Feb 21, 2013, 02:05 ET
CHICAGO, Feb. 21, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The Brain Research Foundation (BRF) today announced that its Scientific Review Committee has selected Jean Hebert, Ph.D., Department of Neuroscience at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, and Brian Litt, M.D., Department of Neurology at the University of Pennsylvania, to receive its 2013 Scientific Innovations Awards. Dr. Hebert and Dr. Litt will receive two-year grants totaling $150,000 each.
This is the second year the BRF has awarded SIA grants to researchers working in institutions across the United States. By selecting ideas from distinguished investigators for this award, the BRF supports novel approaches that are so innovative they may not yet be considered for additional sources of funding.
The goal of Dr. Hebert's proposal is to develop an approach for introducing new, widely dispersed neurons in the adult neocortex, providing a paradigm for testing whether they can functionally integrate and eventually provide the substrate for improved cognitive function. Dr. Litt proposes a new, cutting edge technique to treat brain network disorders with nanodevices that can deliver medications, genes, electrical stimulation and other treatments directly to the affected cells without disturbing other areas of the body.
"The role of the BRF is to help fill the funding gap through our research grant programs so breakthrough projects like these can get off the ground," said Terre Constantine, Ph.D., BRF Executive Director. "Our ultimate goal is to facilitate the discovery of new scientific knowledge that will result in improved treatments and cures for neurological diseases."
About the Brain Research Foundation
The Brain Research Foundation is a national organization that supports cutting-edge neuroscience research that will lead to novel treatments and prevention of all neurological diseases in children and adults. We deliver this commitment through both research grants that provide initial funding for innovative projects, as well as educational programs for researchers and the general public.

Here are 12 creative ways you can transform your attic into an enjoyable and practical space.
Squeezing in an extra bedroom for guests is definitely a practical and popular idea (and you can see some great attic bedroom spaces over here), but there are also plenty of other inspiring ideas for a finished attic. Attic spaces are great because they can be used for very practical needs like storage, a home office, or a bathroom, or you can think of them as bonus space and use them for something fun that you just don't have room for in your main living space.
1. Create a simple, unfinished and calming mediation or yoga room like this one featured on the Free People blog.
2. Make a games room to enjoy with friends, like this one featured on CCS Architecture.
3. Make an extra walk in closet for off-season clothing storage, as spotted on This Old House.
4. Create the craft room of your dreams where everything has a place, like this one from Hemidemisemiquaver Design Blog.
5. Make a quiet home library for reading, like this space showcased on the Barnboardstore project gallery. Awkward attic spaces are perfect for bookshelves.
6. A movie buff's dream! An attic is perfect for a dark and cozy home movie theater, like this one seen on The Patriotic Peacock's blog.
7. Make a simple reading nook to escape to for some peace and quiet, as spotted on Design Sponge.
8. Transform your attic into a useful extra bathroom for the family, like this project by Harry Braswell.
9. Make your attic into a fun playroom, as seen on Zilverblauw.
11. Create a cool place to just hang out with friends or enjoy a movie, as seen in The Washington Post.
11. Create a practical home office to help you separate work from play at home, like this one featured in House to Home.
12. For the music lovers, make a space to store, showcase, enjoy and even play your favourite music collections, like this music nook spotted on Design Sponge.

This week I will take this opportunity to discuss an issue that comes up every year this time of year. While we haven't had significant snowfall yet, we certainly can expect that it will not be much longer.
This week I will take this opportunity to discuss an issue that comes up every year this time of year. While we haven't had significant snowfall yet, we certainly can expect that it will not be much longer.
We all know that inclement weather slows down our travel plans and that we should leave earlier and drive slower when the roads get slick. However, not everyone does this, and we all certainly find ourselves running late from time to time.
Many drivers in this situation find themselves in a ditch, up against a median barrier, or trading paint with another motorist. Often times, police officers arrive at these crash scenes and the at-fault driver may state that he or she was traveling the speed limit and could not stop in time or simply started sliding. While the weather and road conditions are a factor in the crash, these conditions are not the cause of the crash.
MCL 257.627 covers safe driving speed and section (1) states: "A person operating a vehicle on a highway shall operate that vehicle at a careful and prudent speed, not greater than nor less than is reasonable and proper, having due regard to the traffic, surface and width of the highway and of any other condition then existing. A person shall not operate a vehicle upon a highway at a speed greater than that which will permit a stop within the assured, clear distance ahead."
For example, you are driving on a roadway (icy, slushy, wet, dry, or otherwise) and the driver in front of you stops at an intersection or slows for traffic. You hit your brakes, but cannot stop in time and hit the car in front of you. You are at-fault in the crash.
Some drivers may contest this ticket because they were driving at or under the speed limit but the road was slippery. But MCL 257.627 states drivers "shall operate that vehicle at a careful and prudent speed … which will permit a stop within the assured clear distance ahead."
Please heed the warnings this year to leave earlier and drive slower in winter weather. There are many ways to check the weather and road conditions in advance by using your television, radio, Internet or cell phone. Please do so and help keep yourself, your family, and others safe this winter.

Western and Asian business cultures differ in management practice and leadership
development, but results of a survey by The Conference Board suggest there may
be a common set of perceptions underlying certain leadership development practices. Long-term international assignments, participation in international cross-functional teams, and internal management education programs are effective across all cultures. A blend of a corporate system and a local approach offers the best prospects for success in meeting the leadership development challenge.

Regarding the editorial "Governor made right call on inmate's request" (Nov. 15), to delay the execution of Ronald Phillips so that a determination could be made so his organs might be harvested and donated to his relatives: I would like to speak up on behalf of the dear little girl whom he so violently raped and murdered, and her organs.
I am not a proponent of capital punishment but do not think it is a sensible act to put to death an individual in such a manner that his organs can be preserved and reused. I doubt that in committing such a heinous crime, he had much consideration for the toddler's organs.
Rather, this man should spend the remaining years of his life contemplating his selfish actions in taking a young child's life.
Gov. John Kasich has not made qualitative decisions in the past, in my opinion, but he may be able to redeem himself by allowing Mr. Phillips to retain his organs and commuting his sentence to life imprisonment.

Andrews University recently hosted the 42nd annual conference of the International Association of Missionary Aviation (IAMA) from May 15–17, 2013. Over 90 pilots, professors and students from 20 different organizations gathered on Andrews' campus for three days of keynote presentations, discussion and business.
The featured speakers for the event were Ronald J. Maines, owner and founder of Crossroads Consulting Group, a strategic leadership group; David J. Schipper, president and CEO of the Schipper Group and founding member of the Spokane Turbine Center; and Dave Tanner, Safety Officer for Meijer's Flight Department.
Each speaker gave several talks throughout the conference; on Thursday Dave Tanner's afternoon address was entitled "A Path to Excellence in Aircraft Operations: Our Guide—The Word of God." As excellence in aviation becomes increasingly important, pilots, and especially Christian pilots, should cultivate "normalized excellence" in their lives, Tanner said. "God's people should make excellence a part of their personal ethos," said Tanner, connecting the Christian mission with the earthly one.
Following IAMA's annual Year in Review session on Thursday evening, conference attendees enjoyed a banquet and keynote presentation given by Terry and Debbie Montambo. The Montambos are active conference and ministry speakers, and served with the Mission Aviation Support Association for nine years.
Several attendees flew in to the conference, including Tanner, who flew in from Grand Rapids, Mich. Many of the attendees have spent time flying in the mission field, and featured speakers Maines and Schipper flew as pilots for the United States Army during the Vietnam War.
Dina Simmons, chair of the Department of Aviation, reported that attendees enjoyed the conference, the airport and aviation facilities, and the Andrews University campus. "They're talking about coming back in the future," said Simmons. "IAMA is a wonderful network for Christian pilots in the mission field." Simmons noted that the majority of conference planning could not have been accomplished if not for her administrative assistant Jean Gustavsen, flight instructor Kathy Adrada, and student assistant Jose Quispe.
IAMA is a non-denominational association of mission pilots that provides support, resources and guidance in best practices for small missionary aviation organizations across the globe. IAMA is very active at aviation events throughout the country, including the annual AirVenture aviation celebration in Oshkosh, Wisc., where they are yearly participants in Fly for Life.
The next IAMA conference will be held in 2014 at the Prairie School of Mission Aviation in Three Hills, Alberta, Canada.

A huge development site, comprising more than 200 acres of land, is expected to attract bids from farmers and investors.
The land, located at Marehay, Denby Bottles, Denby Village and Denby Common, comprises 169.45 acres of grassland and 44.09 acres of woodland.
Chartered surveyors Mather Jamie is offering the site for sale as a whole or as nine separate lots.
Mark Brandon, of Mather Jamie, said: "We are finding that there is a lot of competition for sites of this type and size, and as there is not enough supply to meet demand, this presents a rare opportunity to purchase such a substantial site. In recent years the land has largely been used for grazing livestock, while the area of woodland offers future potential for harvesting timber or sports.
"While mainly agricultural land, there may also be some long-term potential for future development. This land is already attracting interest due to its size, location and potential, and our advice would be to invest now."

Nationwide Notes: They Going For The Bonus, Baby
Sparta, Ky. – Saturday night's Meijer 300 at Kentucky Speedway is the second of four Nationwide Insurance "Dash 4 Cash" bonus events that pays an extra $25,000 to the race winner.
Kevin Harvick captured a $25,000 bonus from Nationwide Insurance by winning at Nashville Superspeedway in April.
There's a good chance the bonus will be distributed again this weekend.
Two-time defending race champion Joey Logano is the only driver ineligible for this weekend's bonus bucks. But 42 other drivers are chomping at the bit to pick up the extra cash.
"That bonus is really something," veteran driver Jason Leffler said Friday afternoon prior to opening practice. "But a win is a win. That's the most important thing. An extra $25,000 adds a lot to the pot. I'm pretty excited it.
"Coming here to Kentucky, it's an awesome track. They fill the stands and people are enthusiast about their NASCAR racing. We'll put a good show on for them (Saturday night), for sure."
The other two "Dash 4 Cash" bonus races are the Nationwide Series events at Iowa Speedway in July and Texas Motor Speedway in November.
Good debut: The nine previous Nationwide Series contested at the 1.5-mile Kentucky Speedway have produced spectacular finishes and several first-time winners in NASCAR's junior circuit.
David Gilliland shocked the NASCAR world in 2006 when he drove a non-Cup affiliated car to victory at Kentucky and become a first-time Nationwide Series winner.
Stephen Leicht joined that club a year later when he powered a Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet to the winner's circle.
Logano joined the first-time winners group in 2008 when he wheeled a Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota to victory in just his third career start.
Logano snapped the first-timers streak in 2009 and, in the process, became the first repeat winner in Kentucky Nationwide Series history.
Steven Wallace is hoping to snap Logano's Bluegrass state winning streak and join the first-timers club Saturday night.
"I'd like to think so," said Wallace, who climbed to ninth in the series standings following his eight place finish in Nashville last weekend. "I came really close to winning this race in 2007. I was running second with 15 laps to go and got caught up with Carl (Edwards) there on a restart.
"This is definitely the race track it can happen at. A lot of the Nationwide guys' first win will be at a non-Cup track. And there's not a lot of Cup drivers here. I'm sure that we can do it.
"We feel like we finally got our cars handling pretty decent again. I'm trying to get the monkey off our back from all the wrecks we've had. I'm ready to go. We'll see."
Ready to sit: The two-race suspensions to be served by Braun Racing crew chiefs Trip Bruce and Stewart Cooper and two crewmembers who handle tires will go into effect next weekend.
The suspensions stem from the No. 10 and 38 teams swapping tires without permission from NASCAR during Saturday's event in Nashville
The suspensions will be a double-whammy for Leffler, who leans on his crew chief, Bruce, and Cooper on a regular basis.
"Next weekend is when they start serving their suspension. At Road America and New Hampshire, they'll be gone," Leffler said. "The tough thing about that is when Trip's not there, I rely a lot on Stewart. So now he's not there. And our two tire guys are gone too.
"We have a strong group and this is temporary. So I'm pretty confident as a group that we'll power right through it."
Rookie news: With fellow rookie driver Ricky Stenhouse Jr. parked by team owner Jack Roush this weekend, Brian Scott is poised to pad his lead in the Nationwide Series rookie standings on Saturday.
Scott has emerged as the leader of a rookie class that includes Stenhouse, Colin Braun, James Buescher and Parker Kligerman. Scott is the only driver in the group that has competed in each race this season.
"It's a big goal to win the Raybestos Rookie of the Year title," Scott said. "I really think that would help me in my career.
"Unfortunately, it's almost been a battle of attrition. I was really looking forward, at the beginning of the year, thinking we were going to have a really good Raybestos Rookie of the Year battle.
"(They count) only 17 races (to determine the rookie champion) and there's some shuffling going on. But I hope another rookie will come in there and have a good battle. I think it's better for everybody in this sport to have some rookies going race-by-race to see who wins and having it go down to the wire.
"I'd appreciate a challenge like that more than just running away with it."

Military veteran, Captain Ken Hudnall, was an instructor in urban warfare at the United States Army Infantry School and is the author of 40 plus books, including the award winning Manhattan Conspiracy series. The first in the series was written in 1992, but was a chillingly accurate portrait of the terrorist attacks on New York City in both 1993 and 2001. He has appeared on CNN, FOX News, Coast to Coast AM and other major networks as a special consultant in urban warfare. In addition to his works of fiction, he has written extensively on the issues of unidentified flying objects and national security. Ken also hosts a nightly talk show on the Soup Media Network that deals with the paranormal, conspiracies, and the unexplained. Ken currently lives in El Paso, Texas with his wife.

He said there was no need for any side to apologize, but also said: "I did not say not to have surgery. What I said to him was, 'I'm happy to hear there's a plan in place, but we have to go through the protocol.' He said the plan was to be operated on (Wednesday). At that point in time, I had not heard from my doctors on whether we had agreed to it or not. I didn't tell him not to do it. I said as long as the protocol is met, that type of stuff.''
So, the team endorsed the idea of surgery but didn't OK it? Sounds muddled to me.
I'm thinking Beltran figures since he spoke with Minaya that he believes protocol was met. OK, so the Mets didn't take out an ad to say go ahead and do it. But, since their was communication, they had plenty of opportunities to say NO, if they were uncomfortable. But, if they were uncomfortable why would they have sent the workers compensation papers needed for the surgery?
Either way, I wouldn't be too quick to believe it's paradise with Beltran and the Mets.
Meanwhile, the Diamondbacks designated Eric Byrnes for assignment. He is to make $11 million next year.
* FoxSports reported the Mets are in contact with free-agent Jerry Hairston Jr., who can play both the infield and outfield. Hairston, 33, hit .251 with 34 extra base hits in 131 games for the Reds and Yankees last season.
* On the arbitration front, John Maine avoided the process and signed a one-year deal worth $3.3 million plus incentives.
Also, Pedro Feliciano, Jeff Francoeur, Sean Green and Angel Pagan filed.
No surprises on any of that, as the Mets traditionally avoid the arbitration process.

AC Milan midfielder Nigel de Jong has spoken of his optimism following a successful operation on his ruptured Achilles tendon.
The 28-year-old picked up the season-ending injury in last weekend's 4-2 Serie A victory over Torino after he fell awkwardly to the ground and had to be stretchered off in the opening stages of the match.
However, his recovery appears to be on the right track as the Dutchman posted a picture of himself on Twitter following the surgery and expressed his gratitude for all the support he has been shown.
"OP was successful, now looking forward to full recovery," read the tweet. "Thanks 2 my teammates, colleagues and fans for their support."
De Jong joined Milan in the summer from Manchester City for a reported initial fee of €4.5 million and has since played 15 times for the club, scoring once.

Intro for May 31, 2013
Dear Gossips,
Prince Harry put on a tuxedo last night for The Walking Wounded Crystal Ball. Do you find his jacket a liiiiiitttle bit too long? I mean, it could be more tailored, non? Are you about to tell me that that's a royal thing too? That they don't keep up with tuxedo trends?
But you know who can wear a tuxedo? Zachary Quinto in Cannes. Click here for a refresher. Now imagine that, maybe without the skulls on the bow tie, on Hot Harry.
So we're starting the weekend in London on the red carpet with Harry, and we end the weekend on the carpet on Sunday with Pitt Porn. They say the Angelina Jolie will be making her first appearance since the announcement of her double mastectomy at the World War Z premiere. When you visit on Monday then, expect the Brange. Also on Monday...
Vancouver SMUT! Our 2nd year. And we doubled it! See you there!?
Have a great weekend!
Yours in gossip,

JACK: Is she okay?
MOLLY: I'm sure she's fine.
JACK: I don't know, she made TWO cakes this morning.
MOLLY: Okay, so slight cause for concern.
JACK: AND it's pouring. There's no way she's going to let us play outside, even if we wear our boots.
MOLLY: I love my boots. And your boots. And Mommy's boots. I bet could wear EVERYONE'S boots all at ONCE and -
JACK: When is Daddy coming home again?
MOLLY: Friday.
JACK: so Tuesday, Saturday, Shoeday, Twelveday, FRIDAY! That's only, like, 1 day!
MOLLY: Seems like a long time to me. Have you noticed what she's feeding us for dinner?
JACK: Frozen pizza! Processed chicken in unnatural shapes! How can you complain about that?
MOLLY: I guess she IS letting me eat as much yogurt as I want. Yesterday I ate THREE. AND a piece of cheese.
JACK: I love cheese.
MOLLY: I know. We are total dairytarians.
JACK: But she wouldn't give us a ninety-seventh taste of the cake batter. "You've had enough! You've had enough!" When everyone knows there's no such thing as enough cake batter.
MOLLY: She's so weird.
JACK: And THEN she dumped me in my crib just for headbutting you on the couch! I mean, usually I get another couple of tries before Crib Confinement.
MOLLY: I think Mommy is a little nicer when Daddy's home.
JACK: It's like she thinks we're out to get her.
MOLLY: I mean, what's the deal with not letting me buckle myself in the car seat?
JACK: And not letting me make running jumps off the coffee table?
MOLLY: And insisting I allow her to change my diaper? I mean, has SHE ever had a cold, wet, glorified paper towel swiped across HER bottom? That stuff is not pleasant!
JACK: Look at her hang all these pictures and then take them down and hang them somewhere else and then take them down AGAIN and hang them up AGAIN. Should we be worried? What should we do?
MOLLY: Daddy will be home soon.
JACK: Maybe I'll take a nap this afternoon. MAYBE.
MOLLY: And maybe I'll find something other to do at dinnertime than fuse myself to her pants.
JACK: That does make dinner take longer, you know.
MOLLY: Not that you eat it anyway.
JACK: And I think I heard her talking on the phone about "coming over" and "wine" and "cake". CAKE!
MOLLY: That means she's going to have fun! Without us!
JACK: So maybe I'll nap, but I won't go to bed like a good boy.
MOLLY: Yeah, let's boycott bedtime. That'll be FUN.

^^^^^^^^^^ OMG we could lose 2 teams in one night!! How sucky is that!?
I would love to see a two hour premiere, then a two hour finale! That would truly rock.
Wasn't the last time that this happened was in Season 3?? Correct me if I'm wrong...
But no sightings yet... I have a random thinking... could the producers be actually filming the Race as close as the premiere so that spoilers won't leak? Like TARI filming the finale 1 week before it was aired??? Just wondering.
Looks like the Futon Critic is predicting a 2 hour premiere!date (day) time network episode title9/27/09 (Su.) 8:00 PM CBS (#1501/1502) N/Ahttp://www.thefutoncritic.com/showatch.aspx?id=amazing_race&view=listings
Did we know 12 legs yet for sure?Well we do now:"The first team to cross the finish line after twelve legs will win the $1M"
Anyone have a good guess as to when the last episode will be broadcast?Thinking about scheduling a "business" trip to NY in December...
December 6th, now that the 12th leg/episode is confirmed by Phil.December 13th will be the Suvivor finale/reunion, and the 20th is the weekend before Christmas.

Lost Laptop with Patient Names, Treatment Summaries and Other PHI
John Lynn is the Founder of the HealthcareScene.com blog network which currently consists of 10 blogs containing over 8000 articles with John having written over 4000 of the articles himself. These EMR and Healthcare IT related articles have been viewed over 16 million times. John also manages Healthcare IT Central and Healthcare IT Today, the leading career Health IT job board and blog. John is co-founder of InfluentialNetworks.com and Physia.com. John is highly involved in social media, and in addition to his blogs can also be found on Twitter: @techguy and @ehrandhit and LinkedIn.
This story coming out of Oregon came across my feeds today which tells of the Oregon Health and Science University contacting 1,000 patients after a physician's laptop was stolen from a car parked at the doctor's home.
This story made me think of two things:
1. Why is PHI being stored on the laptop in the first place? I wish I could find out if there was an EMR involved. If there was, then the EMR should be storing all of the patient information on the server and none of that data should be stored on the laptop. So, if it gets stolen there's no breach. That's the beauty of an EMR these days. There should be no need for this to happen.
2. There's some really cool technology that's been coming out in recent laptops that will allow you to remotely wipe out the laptop if it ever gets connected to a network. Basically, once your laptop is stolen you report it stolen and they start tracking it down kind of like they do with stolen cars (same people from what I understand).
Once the stolen laptop is connected to the network, it will call back to the main center and receive the command to wipe out the laptop. Then, it will also give them information about where it was connected in order for police to possibly recover the stolen laptop as well. We're implementing this on all our new laptops. I'll be very happy once we have them all with this feature.

Laptop for women
Laptops are a great invention. Not only do you have the convenience of using your computer anywhere you may need it, be it on a plane or in a small café, but you also get the added convenience of being able to carry it with you with a virtually weightless ease. Women are especially appreciative of laptops, simply because they are slim and sleek and most will just about fit inside a handbag sized case. Given those statements, there are a few laptops that, although they probably were not designed specifically for women, they really seem as if they were.
The X2 StyleBook and the Tulip E-Go certainly come to mind when determining the best laptops for women. Both are designed more along the lines of fashion accessories, as opposed to computers. Their beauty and style are highly favored among women professionals, however, their computing technology rank among the very best as far as laptops go.
The StyleBook weighs only 3.9 pounds, and is available in pastel green, blue, pink, white, metallic black, and silver. Each of the colors also has an available matching bag to carry the StyleBook in that is made of your choice of leather, suede, micro fiber, or faux crocodile skin. The StyleBook is definitely one of those creations that seems as if it were made for women.
Another great choice for women is the Sony Vaio VGN-T350. This little beauty is stylish and sleek and weighs in at only 3.1 pounds, which makes it great for carrying everywhere.
All these choices are wonderful for women, due to the color choices of each and the virtually weightless carrying. The matching bags simply add to the attraction. For professional women everywhere, a big thanks to the makers of the "women" laptops. With beautiful colors and fabulous matching bags and accessories, it is wonderful to know that women can find a highly functional laptop, and one that lends to the fashion and design that we all try to present. These make it much easier to show our feminine side, with beautifully designed and stylish laptops geared for women, that still do the job of the larger computers that our men use.

Chapter 35
AN ACT to enable persons held in slavery, to sue for their freedom.*
1. Persons held in slavery to sue as paupers, when.
2. Suits, how instituted - counsel assigned petitioner - petitioner not to be removed.
3. Petitioner about to be removed, defendant may be required to enter into recognizance; petitioner may be hired out when - person hiring to enter into recognizance.
4. Weight of proof on petitioner - judgment.
5. Appeal to general court.
Be it enacted by the Legislature of the territory of Louisiana, [as follows.]
1. It shall be lawful for any person held in slavery to petition the general court or any court of common pleas, praying that such person may be permitted to sue as a poor person, and stating the grounds on which the claim to freedom is founded. If in the opinion of the court the petition contains sufficient matter to authorize their interference the court shall award the necessary process to bring the cause before them.
2. The court to whom application is thus made, may direct an action of assault and battery, and false imprisonment, to be instituted in the name of the person claiming freedom against the person who claims the petitioner as a slave, to be conducted as suits of the like nature between other persons. And the court shall assign the petitioner counsel, and if they deem it proper shall make an order directing the defendant or defendants to permit the petitioner to have a reasonable liberty of attending his counsel, and the court when occasion may require it, and that the petitioner shall not be taken nor removed out of the jurisdiction of the courts, nor be subjected to any severity because of his or her application for freedom.
3. If the court, or any judge thereof in vacation shall have reason to believe that the above order has been or is about to be violated, in such case the said court, or any judge thereof in vacation, may require that the person of the petitioner be brought before him or them, by writ of habeas corpus, and shall cause the defendant or defendants, his, her, or their agent, to enter into recognizance with sufficient security, conditioned as recited in the above order, or in case of refusal to direct the sheriff of the district to take possession of the petitioner, and hire him or her to the best advantage, which hire shall be appropriated either to the petitioner, or to the defendant or defendants, as the event of the suit may justify. And the person hiring the petitioner shall enter into recognizance with sufficient security, conditioned as the above order directs.
4. The court before whom such suit may be tried, may instruct the jury that the weight of proof lies on the petitioner, but to have regard not only to the written evidences of the claim to freedom, but to such other proofs either at law or in equity as the very right and justice of the case may require. And the court on a verdict in favor of the petitioner, may pronounce a judgment of liberation from the defendant or defendants, and all persons claiming by, from, or under, him, her, or them.
5. Suits instituted in any court of common pleas under this law, may be removed into the general court before judgment, or if judgment is given in any such cause in the court of common pleas, appeal, or writ of error shall lie to the general court as in other cases.
The foregoing is hereby declared to be a law for the territory of Louisiana, to take effect and be in force from and after the passage thereof.
June 27, 1807.

Pinterest…A Copyright Holder's Interest
Gone are the days of little girls cutting pictures from magazine and pinning them to a bulletin board in their room. Those little girls have grown up and have now made Pinterest the third most used social media site on the Internet.[1]
Pinterest permits a registered user to capture an image and place the image on the registered users "board" or page. Registered users create bulletin boards based on a theme, topic or interest. The categories are as broad as a color and as narrow as a specific feature of an item. Registered users follow other registered users and/or bulletin boards and can re-pin images that other registered users found. There is no limit to the amount of times an image can be re-pinned.
While Pinterest can serve as a great marketing tool to get the word out about a product or design, it can be a copyright holder's worst nightmare. Copyright ownership includes a bundle of rights. Part of the bundle of rights include the right to display, the right to copy, and the right to make derivative works. If anyone can go onto a website, pin your image, and then the image can be re-pinned - the three exclusive rights held by a copyright owner have just be trampled upon.
"Subject to any applicable account settings you select, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sublicensable, worldwide license to use, display, reproduce, re-pin, modify (e.g., re-format), re-arrange, and distribute your User Content on Pinterest for the purposes of operating and providing the Service(s) to you and to our other Users." (Pinterest Terms of Service, April 15, 2012). While Pinterest's Acceptable Use Policy clearly states that a registered user cannot post an image that violates any laws or the intellectual property of others, very few users truly understand what intellectual property infringement really is. Furthermore, once an image is pinned to a bulletin board - it is subject to Pinterest's Terms of Use. It is possible that your image could be used thousands of times before you uncover that your image has been illegally used.
Any copyright owner needs to become vigilant regarding Pinterest. If a copyright owner wants to utilize Pinterest, then "Pin It" buttons are available for download to place next to an image. Pinterest has also developed code for a copyright holder to place in the code of a web page to prevent pinning. While it is easy for a person to place code for a "Pin It" button, that is not the case for prohibiting pinning. Many copyright holders utilize website templates and automatic coding for additions to its website, thus the ability to place custom code may not be readily available to a copyright owner. Pinterest continues to evolve its Terms of Use and options available to users. This evolution places an even bigger burden on a copyright owner.
Pinterest is here to stay and as a copyright owner, it is time to get on board. First and foremost, it is in a copyright owner's best interest to register with Pinterest and create user name(s) that are the same as any trademark(s) or titles of a major work that she may own. Next, it is important to request to follow those of interest to you - customers, end users, and perhaps suppliers. This may be considered risky but it is important to know what is going on with your competitors and the best way to stay current is to become part of the scene. It is important to note that I am not suggesting you follow a competitor. Unless a copyright owner is friendly with a competitor, it is not a good idea to follow a competitor directly just in case a competitor should ever claim you copied. Access is an important component in proving copying and you do not want to appear to have unclean hands. Pinterest needs to become part of your copyright monitoring routine.
While monitoring Pinterest, should a copyright owner find her image - it is important to act quickly and according to the procedures outlined by Pinterest for notice of copyright infringement. (pinterest.com/about/copyright). First, take a screen shot of the board that includes your image. Next, gather any copyright registration numbers and information required by Pinterest for any copyright infringement takedown actions. File the appropriate notice immediately with Pinterest and keep track of all send/receive receipts, notices, and confirmations. Even if Pinterest takes down the infringing image, the user that pinned your image may still be liable for infringement. The key for determining any further action against the user who used your image is weighing the time and cost that may be involved versus the harm that you, the copyright owner suffered. It is important to note that a copyright registration is not necessarily required for Pinterest to take down an infringing image. However, it is incredibly helpful.
Pinterest remains an ever evolving social media tool that can either be a benefit or burden to a copyright owner. The key for a copyright owner is to become familiar with Pinterest and if she plans on making Pinterest work for her business, utilize educational resources available to learn the right way to market on Pinterest while protecting your images (a great resource is www.pinfriendology.com). The key to Pinterest is knowledge - how to use Pinterest, how to prepare your image(s) for use or non-use on Pinterest, how to report misuse, and how to effectively handle any infringement.

A Report On Dancing With The Stars Rumored Contestant Valerie Harper's Health Condition
Being Valerie Harper is a strong rumored contender to dance on Dancing With The Stars Season 17 and being this is such an inspirational story anyway, below is a recent report on her and her health condition that took place on Today with Merideth Vieira this past Thursday! I just love how Valerie is so positive and currently defying the odds with her brain cancer. Sure, worst conditions could strike at any time and she might be buying time, but, I think her doctor is right for how he said "life is about buying time" and for us all. There is a cool spread on Valerie and this story at the Daily Mail as well. Just a heads up and for those interested: there is going to more to this report and interview with Valerie and Merideth Vieira on September 19th.

31 October 2008
Sepang, 31 October 2008 - Malaysia Airports contributed RM30,000.00 to Institut Jantung Negara (IJN) Foundation today, to commemorate its 16th anniversary
by giving back to the community.
The donation was collected via Tabung KLIA, where airport users contributed small change in any currencies towards charity. The donation boxes-Tabung KLIA are placed at strategic locations at KL International Airport (KLIA).
Tan Sri Datuk Dr. Aris Othman, Chairman of Malaysia Airports said: "Malaysia Airports would like to help IJN Foundation in terms of further enhancing heart treatment to all patients. Besides that, we hope this contribution will help the foundation in its research, scholarship, education, training and also patients' welfare."
Tan Sri Aris elaborated: "This is also part of our corporate social responsibility, to help IJN Foundation's noble effort in helping to save lives and enhance the quality of medical care for heart patients in Malaysia. We look forward for any future possibilities to contribute towards the foundation's good cause."
"Malaysia Airports would also like to acknowledge the support given to us throughout these 16 years, which has helped position Malaysia Airports as one of the renowned airport authorities in the world, and KLIA as one of the best airports in the world, he added.
The contribution was made today at Masjid Sultan Abdul Samad KLIA, where Tan Sri Aris presented the cheque to Puan Alawiyah Hj Yussof, IJN Foundation Manager. Also present were Dato' Azmi Murad, Senior General Manager Operation Services of Malaysia Airports and Encik Daud Hosnan, General Manager of Malaysia Airports (Sepang) Sdn. Bhd.

To the Editor:
You can't walk in to a store this time of year and not be bombarded with bright colors, large signs, and displays that impact your purchasing decisions. Holiday shopping is a marketing frenzy for many corporations. Yet all year-round, tobacco companies spend over a half-million dollars a day in New York State to market their addictive product. In 2012, the Surgeon General reported that tobacco marketing has a direct link to a teenager's tobacco use. In-store tobacco displays send messages to teens and children that distort the social acceptability and popularity of tobacco use.
The average tobacco marketing display at a convenience store or pharmacy is 32 square feet.
That's equivalent to a area rug full of cigarette packages and tobacco marketing light behind the cash register. Tobacco Control Programs throughout New York State are working to educate the community about the policy options that help limit children's exposure to tobacco marketing.
