The Miami Dolphins told Richie Incognito to toughen up Jonathan Martin, but they did not tell Incognito to bully him, according to a report from the South Florida Sun-Sentinel.
Incognito was recently banned indefinitely from the Dolphins squad following revelations that he bullied and racially abused Martin.
Now a report has suggested that the chain of events started when unnamed Miami coaches approached Incognito and asked him to 'toughen up' Martin after the player missed a voluntary workout session last spring.
Incognito has been accused of texting racial abuse to Martin whilst also threatening to harm members of his and said he would defecate in Martin's month if given the chance.
Joe Philbin has already taken responsibility for the incident but will no doubt land in deeper trouble if the revelations are true.
Philbin earlier said that anything that happens to his player under his watch is his responsibility.
"I want you to know as the head coach of the Miami Dolphins I am in charge of the workplace atmosphere," Philbin told reporters.
"Since April 10, 2012 when the players first came here and I was the head coach, every decision I've made and everything we've done to the facility has been done with one thing in mind, and that is to help our players and our organisation reach their full potential.
Any type of conduct, behaviour that detracts from that behaviour is not acceptable and is not tolerated."

Cardinals reportedly interested in Smith
In his last full game as a starting quarterback, Alex Smith completed 18 of 19 passes and threw three touchdowns in a Monday night win in Arizona, a performance that earned him NFC Offensive Player of the Week award.
Evidently, the Cardinals were sufficiently impressed.
According to the Arizona Republic, the 49ers' NFC West rivals are "exploring the possibility" of trading for Smith. Per the report, Arizona is intrigued by his "experience, intelligence and talents" and attributes his pre-2011 struggles to San Francisco's revolving door of coaches and offensive coordinators.
The quarterback-starved Chiefs have been the team most strongly linked to Smith and the 49ers presumably would prefer to deal the eight-year veteran outside the division. Still, the 49ers can't finalize a trade until the league year begins March 12. In the interim, they will continue to entertain all offers.
The fact that Smith appears to be generating a fair amount of interest on the trade market isn't surprising. In his past 32 games dating to Oct. 17, 2010, Smith has thrown 38 touchdown passes, 11 interceptions and posted a 95.1 rating. He will turn 29 in May.
His numbers are in stark contrast with those posted by Arizona's quarterbacks in 2012. The quartet of Kevin Kolb, John Skelton, Ryan Lindley and Brian Hoyer threw 11 touchdowns, 21 interceptions and had a 63.1 rating.
Before the 2011 season, the Cardinals acquired Kolb from the Eagles in exchange for cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie and a 2012 second-round pick. In two injury-plagued seasons, Kolb has thrown 17 touchdowns, 11 interceptions and posted an 83.2 rating in 15 games. He missed Arizona's final 10 games this past season with a rib injury.
The Cardinals would part ways with Kolb if they landed Smith. Kolb is due a $2 million bonus if he's on the roster March 17 and his base salary in 2013 is $9 million. Smith has a base salary of $7.5 million next season.
Though the 49ers might not have interest in propping up the Cardinals at the NFL's most important position, there is a precedent for teams trading still-productive quarterbacks to a division rival. In 2010, the Eagles traded Donovan McNabb, then 33, to the Redskins. In 2002, the Patriots dealt Drew Bledsoe, 30, to the Bills.
Briefly: A CHP spokesman provided more details on the arrest of 49ers offensive lineman Al Netter, who was pulled over last week on suspicion of DUI. Netter was stopped around 3 a.m. Feb. 20 on Montague Expressway near Lafayette Street in San Jose. ... The 49ers announced San Jose-based SunPower will be their solar-technology partner for their stadium in Santa Clara. The company's 400 kilowatts of solar panels will be used to generate enough electricity over the course of a year to offset the power consumed by the stadium during games.

As part of the University of Colorado's summer retreat at President Bruce Benson's mountain ranch near Kremmling, the Board of Regents will evaluate the school's top leader -- raising the question of whether they can give an honest evaluation when they are guests in his home.
And they add that Benson's generosity in offering his second home to host the retreat -- part of which is open to the public -- saves the university thousands of dollars because officials don't have to rent conference centers or hotel rooms for the regents and executive staff members.
Board Chairman Michael Carrigan, D-Denver, said some regents have suggested the board explore holding the retreat at a different location. While planning this year's retreat, Carrigan said he contacted all of the board members and every regent -- except one -- felt Benson's ranch was a good location for the retreat.
"It's my experience the board's review of the president's performance is always candid and professional," Carrigan said. "The board has a lot of strong personalities and anyone who has worked with our board knows that we don't let our location effect our opinion on the leadership of a $3 billion organization."
Last summer's retreat -- which ran from a Thursday to a Saturday -- cost $4,674, according to Ken McConnellogue. Costs associated with the retreat include catering, travel expenses for university officials and nearby lodging for executive staff members who don't stay at Benson's guest house.
By comparison, CU spent $13,273 on a 2008 retreat in Grand Junction -- the last time the board met for a retreat that wasn't at Benson's ranch.
McConnellogue said that while the board evaluates the president at its summer retreat, the evaluation is a continuous process that happens throughout the year.
Asked whether Benson's home is a neutral ground for evaluating the president, Merrill Schwartz, with the Association of Governing Boards of Universities and Colleges, said: "I think a place that affords privacy, encourages candid discussion and is comfortable for a confidential conversation is a good choice. The president's home is probably a better setting than the board room or a hotel meeting room."
Jim Geddes, R-Sedalia, said the location of the retreat doesn't play into his evaluation of the president.
"It probably does save us some funds to convene at the president's ranch for our retreat as opposed to staying in a hotel," Geddes said.
The portion of the retreat that's open to the public will be held Thursday, and the board will discuss academic priorities -- a conversation that arises after some board members have expressed concerns about duplicate programs on campuses.
Friday, the board will meet in executive session, and part of that meeting will devoted be evaluating Benson's job performance. Benson will be present for the evaluation, but the board also has the ability to meet privately, CU officials said.

Husband - Philip Spegal
by – Beverly Spegal, Demossville
I have the best Valentine in the world. My husband,Philip is fighting colon cancer and has been since 2008. He has always been a very hard and dedicated worker. He ran a dairy farm with his Dad for over 40 years. Due to the economy and the high prices of feed, he had to sell the cows and stop the dairy business, which was devastating, but he moved on and started his own trucking business hauling junk or recycled vehicles. This only lasted less than two years, but that was when he found out that he had colon cancer and had to have emergency surgery.
It was a life or death decision that day. He has already had over 75 chemo treatments and then chemo embolisms. He thought that he had beat the cancer, until just recently he had a CAT scan done and it showed over 30 nodules in his lungs and that the tumor in his liver was almost 5 inches in size.
This was devastating to him. He has always been the one that had the broad shoulders and now he needs the shoulders to lean on. We have been married almost 20 years, and I have never loved anyone more than him, especially now that he is a fighter and really wants to live and see all his kids grown and his 15 grandkids.
I am not sure what it takes to win a contest for the best Valentine, but I know I have the world's best valentine! If I could surprise him with winning a contest to show him how much I love him, then that would be the icing on my cake.
We believe that God has a plan for us, and we will keep on keeping on and fighting this cancer until his miracle comes.
Thank you and may God bless,
Beverly Spegal

SAN DIEGO – A rerouting of tens of thousands of vehicles a day begins Thursday at the busiest crossing on the U.S.-Mexico border as part of a major expansion that aims to keep lines manageable while allowing for heightened inspections for contraband.
The reconfigured San Ysidro border crossing between San Diego and Tijuana, Mexico, promises to give inspectors from both countries more time and space to search for illegal goods without disrupting motorists who go back and forth across the border to work, visit family and friends and shop.
A week of trial runs eased fears that a sharp turn will create big delays for Mexico-bound motorists.
Mexican President Felipe Calderón, who drove through an inspection booth Wednesday night, said travelers can expect a smooth trip.
Mexican authorities say they allowed up to 21,600 vehicles a day to take the new route during trials that began Oct. 24, with waits of only 10 minutes during peak travel times. Up to 100 vehicles moved through 22 inspection lanes every minute, far more than the eight inspection lanes at the old crossing.
"It looks like we avoided the border's Carmageddon," said Kenn Morris, president of Crossborder Group Inc., a consulting firm that has been studying border wait times. He was referring to Los Angeles freeway closures that raised concerns of epic traffic jams.
Calderón, who finishes his six-year term Dec. 1, assured an audience that the expansion, which cost his government equivalent of $76.4 million, will alleviate delays.
The new Mexico-bound lanes come as the U.S. government is in the middle of its own $583 million expansion of the San Ysidro border crossing, which includes plans for a soft curve on Interstate 5 in California leading into Tijuana.
Instead of waiting for the U.S. government to finish realigning its freeway, Mexico decided to introduce a sharp right turn for motorists entering Tijuana. Motorists drive along the border for about 300 yards to reach inspection booths.
"This time we finished a lot earlier than they did," Calderón said.
About 35,000 motorists go back and forth across the border at San Ysidro every day. U.S.-bound motorists grew accustomed to waiting two hours or more after the 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon led to more thorough inspections. Mexico-bound motorists wait much less, though both governments have stepped up efforts in recent years to search for smuggled weapons and cash.
The big test for the new lanes will come Friday afternoons, when motorists wait up to 45 minutes to enter Mexico, said Jason Wells, executive director of the San Ysidro Chamber of Commerce.
Wells believes the Mexican government won't accept long delays. Some speculate that it will reopen the old route if the plan flops.
"Even if this doesn't work on day one, there's enough pressure on both sides of the border that they'll make it work," he said.

Saskwatch bring soul to Byron Bay
IS THERE a festival Melbourne soul band Saskwatch haven't played? Well, probably a few, but they have managed to rack up an impressive list in the past 12 months. Saskwatch trumpeter Liam McGorry tells Pulse all about it.
Have you guys managed to leave it all behind yet?
Ah, not quite. We're still touring the album, but are recording early in 2013 so stay tuned.
You must be thrilled with the response you've had from your debut album and Your Love!?
We're pretty amazed that there are people out there who like the album. We just wanted to make an album as friends, and just enjoyed making it. We didn't think that people would want to buy it.
There tends to be a trap for soul bands to be labelled retro - does that get on your nerves?
Sometimes ... I think it's really what you make of it. We're a band that is definitely influenced (although not exclusively) by soul music from the past. We love a lot of modern bands too; The Black Keys, Javelin, Dr Dog ... the list goes on.
Did you ever consider have a band with eight people rather than nine just for the ease of catching a maxi-taxi?
That would make things a lot easier. Although as soon as you add in manager and sound engineer, it doesn't matter too much. Nine people is large.
You've been busy touring since the release of Leave It All Behind - are you getting sick of each other's company yet?
Yes! Actually, not really. We're all really good friends. The beauty of having such a big band (apart from the musical aspects) is that if one or two people start to annoy you, there are seven or eight others who you can hang out with that won't.
What are the highlights from the past 12 months?
2012 was a great year. We played with a few of our idols: Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings, Earth Wind and Fire, Daniel Merriweather, Maceo Parker. We played some of our favourite festivals: Meredith, Golden Plains, Pyramid Rock. We toured Europe and Australia on the back of releasing our first LP, which was incredible too.
What is your mode of transport on tour? If you're travelling in a van who chooses the soundtrack for the journey and what's on it?
Generally we tend to fly or drive. When we're driving it's really first in best dressed, as the front seat is the DJ/navigator; a hard task. As for what's on the stereo, it really depends who is in the front seat. Could be anything from Grizzly Jim Lawrie to Flying Lotus, Royal Headache or Tom Petty.
You're headed to Byron Bay's Beach Hotel on Sunday - your live reputation means you have to live up to big energy for every show! What is it about your sets that have everyone talking?
I think it's just that we love playing live. I think the audience can see we have such fun playing, and people want to have fun so that part is infectious I guess! I'm really looking forward to playing at the Beach Hotel again because it was so great last time.
Saskwatch play the Beach Hotel, Byron Bay on Sunday, 4.30pm. Free.

I know it's not April 1st yet, but I wanted to throw out a couple comments and a challenge well in advance. I like April Fools jokes...if they are done well. Done well for me means creative, but also shouldn't take 4 pages of reading before I figure out I've been had. It should be close to believable, but gradually lead the reader down the path where when they finally realize they've been had, they think 'I can't believe I didn't get it sooner!'.
So, here's the challenge to those of you that blog. Start working on those ideas now, see if you can do some really creative writing once you have the idea. Chris Rock and I already have one idea ready to implement that we at least find so humorous that we can hardly wait! Will it work when released? Hard to know, but worth trying. Remember, it's the idea PLUS the way you tell it that makes it work.
Am I tipping you off about April 1st on my own blog? Sure, but with luck that won't detract from the fun of it one bit!

Roll one direction...
Susie-Q Santa Maria seasoning that I've blogged about a couple of times, this month. I use it on veggies and as my "go to" quick seasoning. No MSG, too.
local supermarket, this will become a pantry staple. Otherwise, go with Alton's seasonings. Or, have fun experimenting. You could season this with a South of the Border Flair-- taco seasoning. Use Greek seasoning. The sky is the limit.
Now fold each side in, using the parchment paper is helpful. Whatever method you use, don't forget to wash your hands thoroughly when you are finished. The raw meat police is watching. I realized, later, that cheese could be easily layered as well. Imagine those possibilities, would you? Feta... Parmesan... Smoked Gouda. But, this time I skipped the cheese. Grab a pizza cutter, or your favorite cutting tool. I love my metal bench scraper.
For a side dish, Garlic Oven-Fries are perfect.
I'll be making these for Super Bowl. But, first, there are a few Friday Happy Hour's until January. Simple. Easy. Delicious!

Just a heads up but on the 1st the new crossing for going south at TJ will be open full time. You have to do a hard right turn, which could be a problem with big rigs, so be in the left lane.
This will a be a better crossing.
Also you can not get your visas till about the 5th at that part of the crossing, though it is reported you can park and walk back to old crossing. I suggest till the 5th if you need a visa you go to Otay Mesa. I have directions for that crossing on the site too.
I have maps and details at http://www.la-ventana.info under travel and at the first section of current events::local talk::today

Through our Sandals Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Sandals Resorts International, you are able to donate your time and/or make a financial contribution to help make a difference. By participating in the "Buy a Brick for Education" program which promotes learning for the Caribbean education system, your name will be carved on a brick to be placed on a school ground to honor your contribution.

Nashua aldermen set to vote on contract for teachers
Union Leader Correspondent
Nashua teacher contract ratified
— A new three-year contract for Nashua teachers is expected to pass two final hurdles this week.
The Board of Aldermen is scheduled to vote on the contract Tuesday night, and Mayor Donnalee Lozeau, who has already said she supports the new agreement, must approve it to make it official.
The contract, which is retroactive to Sept. 1 of this year was already approved unanimously by the Budget Review Committee. Board of Education member Kimberly Muise attended that meeting and made the case for the new agreement.
"The district is in a critical state and teachers' jobs are changing and evolving," said Muise. "Teachers are being asked to change teaching methods and curriculum."
Muise also pointed out that teachers are being asked to use new "data-driven" techniques to address the needs of individual students. They are also working to incorporate a new grading system based on specific student competencies in each subject and will be working under a new evaluation system for teachers.
"The point is collaboration between administrators and teachers is needed to move the district forward, and they deserve compensation," said Muise.
Under the new deal, salaries will increase 2 percent during the first year, 2.65 percent the second year and 3.1 percent during the final year.
More steps have been added to the teachers' salary schedule in order make pay more equitable among the more than 1,000 teachers who bring different credentials and experience to the job.
Although the annual cost of base salaries is projected to rise from $56.7 million to $57.4 million over the course of the contract, negotiators on both sides of the table have said those figures can be misleading. Not all teachers who retire or resign receive a severance package, and the projections do not account for unpaid leaves of absence, which in some cases extend up to a year.
BOE chairman Robert Hallowell told the Budget Review Committee that the Teachers Union made several significant concessions, including agreeing to cap retirement pay at 40 percent of a teacher's annual salary.
During the third year of the contract, the city will take over the dental plan which, in the past, has been administered by the union. There will be no change in the coverage, and Hallowell said there is a potential savings in that move.

How to Respond to a Negative Online Review
Career Development
The phrase, "It's a small world" has really taken on new meaning in the digital age. Thanks to the Internet and social media, online posts can go global almost immediately and informational searches can produce expert advice in a couple of clicks. Truth be told, today, more of us seek recommendations for products and services online than taking the time to pursue opinions from friends, family, or co-workers. It's just easier and faster.
Blogs, Facebook, Twitter, and other social media sites enable anyone and everyone to become known, build relationships across the world, and critique. What might seem like a gold mine for businesses looking to spread the word about their services and connect with clients in near real time … can turn ugly just as quickly.
What happens when your company or firm gets a negative online review? How do you repair the good reputation and brand you've worked so hard to establish? Even if you think your position inside your firm or company isn't directly involved in company-related reputation activities, you can show quite a bit of initiative and demonstrate your leadership skills by taking an active role in bringing this to management's attention and/or participating in providing a solution.
Make Every Opinion Count—in a Good Way
Like it or not, happy and not-so-happy clients and customers enjoy unprecedented power to voice their opinions about your company or practice. According to a survey by Nielsen of more than 25,000 Internet consumers, 70% of respondents said they trust the opinions of virtual strangers.
Websites such as Yelp, Google Places, Citysearch, and Angie's List offer the ability to post anonymous opinions and comments about businesses—including accounting and tax-prep practices. It doesn't matter how large or small your company is or where you are located. If the Internet is available, then reviews about your business might exist. In other words, your business has most likely developed an online reputation without even knowing it.
To find out what people are saying, search for your business on Google and Bing. If a search produces unflattering information, you probably won't be able to get it removed, but you can work to bury it with positive content. However, be sure to educate the team on the "when" and "how" of reputation management.
For example, Yelp allows you to respond directly to clients or others who posted a bad experience. Just remember that when you respond, you are talking as much to a potential clients and customers who may read the review as you are to the one who initially posted the negative comment.
Sometimes, postings that shouldn't be a big deal, despite their nature, gain traction and "me too" responses. These situations need to be addressed—and addressed fast. Staying quiet simply because you don't think the post is serious enough to warrant a response is almost certain to fan the fire to spread beyond Yelp and onto other sites. The best way to contain a negative is to handle it at its source. If something is gaining legs, get in on the conversation and help calm it down.
Even if you feel a complaint is unwarranted, you will want to handle it with some finesse. Keep your content upbeat and avoid being accusatory or appearing as if you're on the defensive. If the dialogue is rather unsettling, you may wish to take the conversation offline.
Whatever you do, try to rectify the issue. Although it might seem intrusive, contact the person by phone or email if you feel the timing and situation are right, and seek to reach some common ground. Don't be insulted if your calls or emails aren't returned. Remember, vocal customers may update their opinion of your company or firm if given a reason and the chance to do so. Learn from the experience and treat it as an opportunity to improve and grow your business.
A Glowing Offense is the Best Defense
The best way to combat a poor review is to get lots of good reviews. Get in the habit of asking your most valued client and customers to post favorable reviews of your services, business knowledge, and other areas. You might even need to suggest various ways to do this by asking them to comment about, for example, how you helped solve a problem. If you work inside a company, find out if your company participates in the local Best Places to Work competition or something similar to this effort. You can spearhead this activity if no one else is handling it.
You can also set up professional profiles on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter to overshadow unflattering information. Search engines usually rank these links high, so positive comments will appear before negative ones, while updated information typically moves to the head of the search line. Make a point to update your content often as part of your strategy to manage your online reputation. It will be time well spent!
You may not be able to prevent your business from having an online reputation, but you can defend it against an unwanted online reputation. Let the technology work in your favor. By understanding the importance of forging and managing a good reputation as an element of online marketing, you will improve your business's bottom line.

Pre-natal genetic testing threatens lives
A French bio-ethics bill shows why we must protect the lives of unborn children with Down syndrome everywhere.
Guest blog post by Leticia Velasquez
Today the French government holds the fate of thousands of innocent lives in their hands. The French parliament is considering a bill mandating that health care professionals offer universal pre-natal testing for Down syndrome.
When a diagnosis of Down syndrome is given to a pregnant woman in France, there is a 96 percent abortion rate. Most women who are tested are older mothers whose chances of conceiving a child with Down syndrome are statistically higher, but most babies with Down syndrome are born to younger women because of their higher birth rates. They have not been routinely tested until now.
Offering pre-natal testing to all pregnant women in France will end the lives of thousands of unborn children whose only crime is that they have an extra chromosome.There are those who believe that French society would be improved by eliminating such individuals, and their opinion seems to be gaining ground. Now this type of eugenics which existed de facto in the 96 percent abortion rate, is about to be codified into policy of the government of France.
The eugenics campaign to eliminate those with Trisomy 21 was under way in France in the 1960's. Clara Lejeune Gaymard, daughter of French geneticist Dr. Jerome Lejeune, who discovered the cause of Down syndrome and whose cause for canonization was opened in 2007, vividly recalls the day that this devastating reality hit home for her family:
"I remember it so clearly. I was 10 years old, and, one day, [Dr. Lejeune] came home for lunch. The day before, on television, there was a movie about a family where a woman had a child with Down syndrome, and she wanted to abort, and she couldn't do it then. After, there was a debate about abortion of the diseased children.... A boy came to his consultation with his mom, and he was crying, and my father said, "Why are you crying?" And his mother said, "He saw the movie, and I couldn't stop him crying."...Then he jumped in my father's arms, and he was only 10 with Down syndrome. He said, "You know, they want to kill us. And you have to save us, because we are too weak, and we can't do anything." [My father] came back home for lunch, and he was white, and he said, "If I don't protect them, I am nothing." That's how it started. And then his career came down. He didn't have money for his research. He was like a pariah, and so on, but he accepted that because he thought he was doing that which was his duty. "
Dr. Lejeune accepted the sacrifices and humiliation which accompanied the role of protector of those with Down's syndrome and spent the rest of his career searching for a cure for Trisomy 21 until his death in 1994. Even on his deathbed, he apologized for abandoning those he called his "little ones" before finding a cure.
His family took up the baton and formed the Jerome Lejeune Foundation in Paris to continue funding research on Down syndrome and to treat thousands of patients. The Foundation is leading a campaign against this legislation with a petition (in French; see English translation on my blog). The Foundation also just opened a U.S. branch where they fund 94 ongoing research projects.
There is a cruel irony in the timing of this legislation; just as life has never been better for those with Trisomy 21, the French governments proposes measures which may lead to their extinction.
Scientists in America and Europe are closing in on groundbreaking therapies to make the learning and memory of those with Down syndrome completely normal, yet parents who have received a pre-natal diagnosis of Down syndrome are not likely be told this by their health professionals. In the United States, the abortion rate for those receiving diagnosis is 92 percent.
Parents will not be told of the full, satisfying lives people with Down syndrome are leading now--how they are participating in sports, work, media, social events, and relationships. It is more probable that they will hear a coldly clinical list of symptoms and dire prognoses about Down syndrome without reference to the promising research which may make the cognition and memory of those with Down syndrome normal within a decade, or their growing list of accomplishments.
Instead, these vulnerable parents will be frightened by those whose prejudices against those with disabilities have been called by Lejeune, "Chromosomal racism." The century-old specter of eugenics has once again reared its ugly head in Europe. Will there be enough people of good will to say "no" to the "decline of civilization," as Cardinal Archbishop Vignt Trois has urged.
"Toward what kind of society to we want to move?" he questioned in a recent press release (see it in French or the Google translation). "The type of society we prepare for our children depend on the answers we give to all these questions today?"
Leticia Velasquez is an advocate for those with Down syndrome and co-founder of KIDS (Keep Infants with Down Syndrome). She is a speaker and freelance writer, whose first book, A Special Mother is Born, will be published by WestBow Press this summer. She, her husband, and three daughters, the youngest of whom has Down syndrome, live in Conneticut.

I was wondering if you know that dua'a which women are supposed to read when they're not praying (ie. menstruating) during Ramadan and other times as wel. I believe you're supposed to read it 70 times at the time of each salah and the rewards include something like hajj and umra for every vein of the body. If you could please please provide me with that dua'a as well as the translation, benefits, and hadith or whatever authenticity, i would really really appreciate it. I've been looking and I know I have it but somewhere, but I can't seem to find it.
We do not know of any du'aa' in the saheeh Sunnah that is like the one mentioned by our sister.
It is not permissible for anyone to attribute to the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) things that he did not say. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "Whoever tells lies about me deliberately, let him take his place in Hell." Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 1291; Muslim, 933.
Not every hadeeth that a person hears or reads in a book is saheeh, rather he must verify whether the hadeeth was indeed narrated from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), and it should be taken from trustworthy scholars who have sound knowledge of the hadeeth of the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him).
It was narrated by Muslim in the introduction to his Saheeh (5), and by Abu Dawood (4992) that the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "It is sufficient lying for a man to speak of everything that he hears." Classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh Abi Dawood.
Al-Nawawi said:
Because usually he hears both true and false things, and if he were to speak of everything that he hears, he would be lying because he would be telling of something that did not happen. End quote.
It is permissible for a menstruating woman to remember Allaah by reciting whatever du'aa's and dhikrs she wants; there is no reason why she should not do that. And it is permissible for her to recite Qur'aan, as is the view of Abu Haneefah and the view favoured by Shaykh al-Islam (may Allaah have mercy on them both).
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah said in Majmoo' al-Fataawa, 26/190:
There is no basis for saying that she (a menstruating woman) is not allowed to recite Qur'aan. The quotation, "The menstruating woman and the one who is junub should not recite Qur'aan" is a weak hadeeth, according to the consensus of the scholars who have knowledge of hadeeth.
Women used to menstruate at the time of the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), and if reciting was haraam, as prayer is, this would have been something to which the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) drew the attention of his ummah, and the Mother of the Believers would have known it, and that would have been something that was transmitted to the people. Since no one narrated any such prohibition from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), it is not permissible to make it haraam when it is known that he did not forbid it. Since he did not forbid it even though there were plenty of menstruating women around at his time, then it is known that it is not haraam. End quote.
But she should recite Qur'aan without touching the Mus-haf, either by reciting what she knows by heart, or reading from the Mus-haf whilst wearing gloves or something similar that will prevent her from touching the Mus-haf directly.

And Allaah knows best.

Some years ago, Singh Kaur recorded her last album with Invincible which was recently mixed and mastered. The songs are high energy with lyrics about love, spirit and the wonders of life, past, present and future.
Wings of Love is a departure from the more ethereal style of Singh Kaurs earlier work, and shows her exceptional gift to create melodies that transcend the physical into the spiritual. The 13 songs contain piano, guitar and of course the exceptional vocals of Singh Kaur.
Singh Kaur (also known as Lorellei and Laura Drew) possessed both a keen compositional mind and a striking, crystalline voice.
Singh Kaur's musical journey was one of unique and magical magnitude. Her music reached a wide audience through the hugely popular Crimson Series albums recorded with Kim Robertson. Shortly thereafter, she joined Soundings of The Planet to produce her first Billboard-charting album, Instruments of Peace (1988), followed by What Child Is This, a Christmas album produced with Dean Evenson.
Singh Kaur was first exposed to the life of music at the age of five, listening to arias sung by her operatic grandmother. At age 14, she bought her first guitar and has been composing and arranging ever since. Her lyrical concepts can be traced to the 14 years that she spent in a yoga ashram studying ancient spiritual teachings and writing music to complement sacred texts.
Literally translated, Singh Kaur means Lion Princess, and a most appropriate name it was too. Long flowing red hair was her mane, accompanying an exuberant personality, both playful and ferocious. Yogi Bhajan, who crowned her with this name, often said that it held the key to her destiny: "Sing Singh Kaur!" As she sang, so did her soul touch the hearts of others, and in this way she bacame beloved to those who knew or heard her.

He's known as the Juice, but it ain't because he's O.J.
The Hasidic man (pictured, yesterday) who legally changed his name to Lemon Juice did it on a whim after he was razzed for his bizarre yellow-blond hair, his friends said yesterday.
"Some random kid called him 'lemon juice,' he liked it, so it stuck," said Joel Neuwirth, 22, explaining the acidic moniker of his friend — who's one of the three Hasidic brutes accused of secretly photographing an alleged sex-abuse victim in court.
Neuwirth said Juice, a 30-year-old unmarried bakery employee, was so in love with his new nickname that he wanted to make it all official.
"He changed it legally in court," Neuwirth said.
Another friend said Lemon is so proud of it that when he settles down and finds a wife, her last name will also be Juice.
"He wants all his kids to have different vegetable and fruit names. He said the first would be 'Orange,' " the friend said outside Brooklyn Supreme Court yesterday.
Juice, Yona Weissman and Joseph Fried are accused of snapping pictures of a teen as she testified against her alleged tormentor, Nechemya Weberman, and then posting the images online.
A Brooklyn judge extended a protective order against the three men, telling them to steer clear of the teen.
Juice's sister said he supports the girl, not Weberman.
"There's no way in hell he supports Mr. Weberman," she said.

I. In Focus This Week
A caucus for concern?
Problems in several caucus states reignite caucus vs. primary debate
The only certainty in election administration is uncertainty. No matter how professionally run an election is because there is a human and natural element involved, administrators can never guarantee anything.
One thing that does seem guaranteed is that every four years, as Americans head to the polls to choose a president, the debate of how we do that — primary vs. caucus — will take center stage in the early months of the process.
With caucus issues in Iowa, Maine and Nevada so far, this year is no different. However, like many things in life, desire and reality are often two vastly different things.
"Elections aren't like the old Judy Garland/Mickey Rooney movies where one person has ballot boxes, [and] someone else has a polling place... it takes time, money and skill to do elections right, and the problems Iowa and Nevada have encountered suggest that if you want professionally-run elections, you should hire professionals to run them," wrote Doug Chapin, director, Program for Excellence in Election Administration at the Humphrey School of Public Affairs, in a recent blog post.
Richard Hasen, Chancellor's Professor of Law and Political Science at the University of California wrote a piece for Slate referring to party officials that conduct caucuses as the Keystone Kops. Hasen suggested Congress get involved and scrap the caucuses.
"Amateur hour is over. The choice of a president is simply too important to put in the hands of party bumblers and the small percentage of people who are willing to spend hours to cast a vote," Hasen wrote. "Let's have primaries—and then figure out how to make sure all those voting machines work properly."
But are caucus states ready or willing to take on the added burden — both financial and physical — of conducting presidential primaries?
In Iowa, the answer is no. Not because the state couldn't handle the burden, but because the state enjoys its first-in-the nation caucus status.
"The Secretary of State wholeheartedly supports Iowa's current caucus process and intends to do everything he can to preserve it," said Sarah Reisetter, director of elections for Iowa. "The Iowa caucuses provide Iowans with a unique opportunity to interact with presidential candidates and those opportunities may decrease if our state moved to a primary system. Secretary Schultz is not interested in seeing that happen."
According to Maine Director of Elections Julie Flynn, even if officials in Maine wanted to return to a primary system, it's not as simple as it seems.
Maine had a presidential primary law for many years that was never used by the parties Flynn said. The state adopted a presidential preference primary law in 1993, and presidential preference primaries (PPP) were held by the Democratic and Republican Parties in 1996 and 2000. The law was then repealed in 2003, so the parties went back to the caucus system starting in 2004.
"Our law requires the qualified political parties to hold caucuses every even-numbered year in order to keep their qualified status," Flynn said. "So, even if the PPP law is enacted again, parties would still have to caucus to meet their qualification requirement."
If the state were to do away with caucuses Flynn said it would cost Maine $75,000 to $150,000 to provide ballots with municipalities bearing the cost of securing and setting up polling places and paying elections officials.
In Nevada, although Sen. James Settelmeyer has submitted a draft bill request to make that switch back to primaries, there seems to be little support for the proposal.
Due to rising costs and decreased interest, Nevada scrapped its primary system in 1984 in favor of caucuses. The costs for Nevada to move back to a primary system — it used one prior to 1984 — would be $1-2 million every four years. And for a state with one of the highest unemployment rates in the country and a 2011 budget deficit of 54 percent, spending any additional money is almost out of the question.
"If we've learned nothing else from recent history, it's that the appetite for professional election administration isn't always matched by the kind of budgets to make it happen," Chapin said.

Publication Type: Peer Reviewed Journal
Publication Acceptance Date: 6/17/2012
Publication Date: 8/30/2012
Citation: Lehrsch, G.A., Sojka, R., Koehn, A.C. 2012. Surfactant effects on soil aggregate tensile strength. Geoderma. 189-190:199-206. Interpretive Summary: A soil aggregate's ability to withstand fracturing is termed its tensile strength, important because it is a measure of how well a soil resists compaction from heavy agricultural equipment. We know little about how tensile strength responds to surfactants (wetting agents) that may be applied to soil to alleviate water repellency. Two laboratory investigations were performed to determine surfactant effects on tensile strength, the first study of nine continental U. S. soils, and the second of two Pacific Northwest silt loam soils. In Study 1, we sprayed two surfactants onto loose soil while in Study 2, we sprayed three surfactants onto tamped soil, then irrigated twice. Tensile strength was measured by crushing dry, 5-mm-diameter aggregates. In Study 1, tensile strength varied up to 18-fold from soil to soil. As a group, the nine soils were 7% stronger when surfactant-treated than untreated. In Study 2, after irrigation, tensile strength averaged 26% less near the surface than 15 mm below it, likely because surface aggregates were weakened by water droplet impact. All told, tensile strength varied more by soil series and depth than by surfactants.
Technical Abstract: Little is known regarding a soil aggregate's tensile strength response to surfactants that may be applied to alleviate soil water repellency. Two laboratory investigations were performed to determine surfactant effects on the tensile strength of 1) Ap horizons of nine wettable, agricultural soils collected from across the continental U.S., and 2) two of the nine soils (Latahco and Rad silt loams from the Pacific Northwest) that were sampled at two depths (5 and 15 mm) after being sprinkler irrigated. Along with an untreated control, three surfactants (an alkyl polyglycoside, an ethylene oxide/propylene oxide block copolymer, and a blend of the two) were spray applied by hand at rates of 0, 1, 1.63, 3.35, 4.79, or 8.14 kg active ingredient/ha to 1) air-dry, loose soil in Study 1 and 2) field-moist, tamped soil in Study 2 before being irrigated with surfactant-free water at 88 mm/h twice, once for 0.33 h, then about 8 d later for 0.25 h. Tensile strength was measured on oven-dry, 4- to 6.35-mm-diameter aggregates (18<=<=37) of known mass for each treatment using a load cell with an attached flat-tip probe moving at a constant 0.27-mm/s rate that applied continuous strain to each aggregate until it failed. In Study 1, tensile strength ranged widely, from 27 kPa for Adkins loamy sand to 486 kPa for Bolfar loam, averaged across surfactant treatments. Tensile strength for all nine surfactant-treated soils averaged 164 kPa, 7% greater (P=0.099) than the control. In Study 2, surfactants significantly affected the tensile strength of Latahco but not Rad aggregates, when averaged across irrigations and sampling depths. After irrigation, aggregate tensile strength averaged 26% less (P<0.001) at the 5- than 15-mm depth, likely due to droplet kinetic energy fracturing near-surface, intra-aggregate bonds or surfactant leaching. All told, tensile strength varied more by soil series and depth than by surfactants.

Hello everybody,
I started taking C the other night. I took 3 grams and then three hours later, I took 4 grams. Three hours after that, I took another 3 grams. Everything was okay. The next day I did the same thing and had the worst sinus pressure/migraine that I have had in a long time. I even vomitted (gross).

Another Heartbreak for Italy!June 30, 2009 at 15:06 | Posted in Amore di Italia, Bits and Pieces | Leave a comment
Tags: charity, Italy, natural or manmade disasters
Based on reports from Corriere della Sera Italy has one more horror to deal with – does the old adage/superstition of bad news in threes hold true. I pray this time it does – twice for Abruzzi and now one for Viareggio make three. This lovely town has been rocked with a train accident resulting in a horrendous fire and at least 15 dead and untold damage. We have often traveled through this area – it is a beautiful area with warm friendly people! We pray for their recovery – and for those burned in the resulting explosions and fires. Please visit the links for my postings on Abruzzi to again offer donations to the Italian Red Cross to help the folks here. They are needing help as well as prayers — and they deserve both from us!

Many terrs suddenly showing neutrals (many 4s, but also 1s and other counts), my own troops suddenly in terrs I never held, etc. Also snapshots I am taking right now are screwed up in the same way. My team-mate in those games having the same problem.
Downgrading to 5.2.0 didn´t solve the issue. New upgrading to 5.2.2 neither. Any ideas ?

sherkaner wrote:Leehar wrote:Is there anyway that 'Strength' could now reflect the round limits determination of wins?
It's just number of armies, right? I haven't had a game that was decided through round limits yet, so I'm not sure.
At least that number is already in the table, so that doesn't need a column. But I might remove the strength anyway, it isn't that useful.
And btw, just updated the script.

Catarah wrote:just checking, but i´m afraid there is no version for Chrome right? switched browsers recently and its a pain to switch back to firefox every time i play a hard game :p
also, the strength is Troops + troops Due - (Regions*(2/3))
i believe the region number gets counted as negative because for each region there's an army which can't be used to attack with, so that army counts only for 1/3rd.

You are the first to complain, so I hope this is specific to you
Do the menus show up on game pages?
And which version of FF are you using? (I might have used something that has a slightly different name in older ff versions)
sherkaner wrote:it's the HUD you're talking about, and in the BOB-menu there's an option to set the minimal HUD width (default set to 600, but can be increased to 1200). So yes, it's possible.

The only issue I'd see with Euri's story is the fact that going to an AWS class without having ever heard of iSCSI kind of show that this guy didn't know enough to benefit from the course.
This was my point. It's Architecting for AWS, not using. People in this class are supposed to already be systems architects.

Nobody likes paying property taxes, but the city is taking steps to make it a bit easier. On June 4, the Common Council approved my proposal for a four-installment system for property tax payments, something I've been working on for more than three years. Under the new system, you'll … [read more]

text: Shawn Barber Tattoo Artist Magazine #30 Article Preview Interview By Kore Flatmo Kore Flatmo: Were you making art that whole time? Or did you put it on the shelf? Shawn Barber: Yes. I was always drawing comics. Doing murals on friends' walls, posters for friends' music shows and album artwork. I got my first tattoo at 16, continued to get a more and more tattoos. So there was an attraction early on. Yeah. I wanted to be tattooed. When you got that first tattoo, did you think, 'I'd like to do this'? I thought, "This guy doesn't know how to draw." [Laughs]... This was in a shop? In a shop downtown in Cortland, New York… Super-nice guy… Tattoos by Todd. I don't remember his last name. I don't know if he's still around. I drew a little bit of tattoo flash for him in trade for tattoos. Is that tattoo covered, or is it still showing? It's gotten a couple of shots from the laser. Ah. Yeah. It was a black costume Spiderman. And, you know, I did the drawing from a comic, that I copied. And I think my comics at the time—and this goes back to maybe up until I was 25—there was no soul, or sincerity, or originality to any of it. I was more interested in making marks than I was in creating worlds, or really thinking for myself. You were just mocking what you saw? Yeah, and I was interested in the style of marks. That's where my head was… Into girls, into drugs, into partying… But obviously, everyone, including myself, goes through this nihilist period… I did it for a long time. But if you're continuing to draw and make art, then that's that kernel that all this stuff has grown from. It never went away. Yeah. It's always been there. What do the Amish call it? When they let the kids go into the world, to see if they come back or not? I think we all have that, in a way, even if it's self-imposed. The year of living dangerously, let's call it. We have these ideas, and we get to this period where we have the freedom of our late teenage years, and into our 20s, and we become hedonistic. Pleasure this, pleasure that… So, I think during that period if you are keeping up on your art, then that really speaks to the connection you had. It was an impulse. Yeah. You did it because you liked it. If you didn't like it you wouldn't do it. Loved to do it. Were you encouraged by the reactions of others? Everybody around me was into it. So that feels good. Totally. But I think I knew better. I got a lot of accolades from my friends and family, but I think I knew that I hadn't really put myself into it, mentally. It was always an aesthetic thing, and it didn't deserve the praise that it was getting, and I knew it. But that ego-stroke, at a young age, it does feel pretty good.

Ask Siri a question
There are several ways to talk to Siri, including pressing the Home or Side button on your device, connecting to a headset or car, or using "Hey Siri."
Use the Home or Side button
If you have an iPhone 6s or later, hold down the Home button, then say what you need. On some devices, you might need to wait for Siri to appear before you make your request.
If you have an iPhone X, hold the Side button and make your request.
Say, "Hey Siri"
You can use Siri without pressing the Home or Side button. First, make sure that "Hey Siri" is on under Settings > Siri & Search > Listen for "Hey Siri." Then say "Hey Siri" and ask your question. For example, you can say "Hey Siri, how's the weather?"
If you have an iPhone 6s or later, iPad (6th generation), or iPad Pro*, you can use "Hey Siri" whenever you want. If you have an iPhone 6 or earlier, or another iPad or iPod touch model, you need to plug your device into power first.
When you say "Hey Siri," Siri determines which device you're trying to use—just make sure that Bluetooth is enabled on your devices.
Talk to Siri with your headset
If you're using a headset that has a remote or another type of Bluetooth device, hold down the center button or call button until you hear a chime. Then say what you need.
If you have AirPods, double-tap the outside of either one to activate Siri.
Talk to Siri in your car
In addition to using "Hey Siri," if your vehicle supports CarPlay or Siri Eyes Free, hold down the voice-command button on your steering wheel, then tell Siri what you need. Siri waits for you to stop talking. If you have a touch screen with CarPlay, you can also use Siri by pressing and holding the Home key on the screen. You can tap the audio-wave button to tell Siri you're done talking. This is useful if Siri can't hear you because there's background noise. Opening certain apps like Phone or Messages can also connect you to Siri.
Siri adapts its behavior depending on how you're connected. For example, if you're connected from a wired or Bluetooth headset, from Siri Eyes Free, or from CarPlay, Siri reads your messages so you can approve them before sending.
Change Siri's voice or language
To change Siri's voice, go to Settings > Siri & Search > Siri Voice. To change Siri's language, go to Settings > Siri & Search > Language. Then choose from the list of languages that Siri speaks and understands.
To change how Siri responds, go to Settings > Siri & Search > Voice Feedback and select an option.
You can use Siri in any country or region, with any of the supported languages. Since Siri is designed to recognize accents and dialects of the supported countries or regions, Siri's accuracy rate will be highest for native speakers. Learn which Siri features are supported in which countries and regions.
Have phone calls announced
The Announce Calls feature is off by default, but you can turn it on and adjust it under Settings > Phone > Announce Calls.
You can have all incoming calls announced, only calls when you're in the car or using headphones, or only calls when you're using headphones.
Learn more
Learn how to use Siri on your Mac, Apple TV, and Apple Watch. Or get help if Siri doesn't work as expected.
* If you have an iPhone 6s or later, iPad (6th generation), iPad Pro 12.9-inch (2nd generation), iPad Pro (10.5-inch), or iPad Pro (9.7-inch), you can use "Hey Siri" whenever you want. You can also say your request as soon as you start holding the Home or Side button. Release the button to let Siri know when you're done. iPad Pro 12.9-inch (1st generation) doesn't support these features. iPhone X has a Side button instead of a Home button.

Here are just a few of the many positive things our patients have to say about their the care they received at Cary Medical Center.
Mike is a great PT - - just loved him.
The Cary Physical Therapy folks were friendly and welcoming. They introduced themselves and called me by my first name which made me feel like they thought of me as a person and not just another patien. We set goals and met them - they taught how to walk correctly with a cane which I found helpful. My month at Cary P.T. was an enjoyable experience. I'd recommend it to anyone.
I always choose Cary for myself and my son without a doubt. We have always had a wonderful experience.
I want to thank every one at Cary Medical Center for help and kindness. Not just one person everyone was so nice. That's why I only go to Cary Medical Center Cary is the best hospital around.
I came in by ambulance due to heart issues. The nurses were excellent, lab techs very competent.
I was very happy with the care I received at Cary. Just wanted to say that in addition to the clear level of medical competence & professionalism of all the staff I met, regardless of level, I also appreciated their interpersonal demeanor & bedside manner. I was afraid, and the were able to calm my fears.
I had wonderful care from nurses & CNA's during my 12 day staff. Too many to record names.
I was very impressed over all with my colonoscopy. Dr. & nurses were excellent and never once made me feel I was an imposition to them when they were so busy. I have already recommended Cary to my friends
All were informed and had excellent attitudes. Very professional and caring.
