Greenwich police still searching for missing girl
Greenwich police said Tuesday morning that they are still searching for a 15-year-old Greenwich girl who was last seen in town Friday.
The girl, Crystyle Davis, is described as a 4-foot-11, 107-pound black female with brown hair extensions in the back of her head. She may be wearing brown moccasin shoes. She has run away from home before, police said.
Sgt. Mark Zuccerella, of the Greenwich Police Department's Special Victims Section, said police found Davis in the Bronx after she ran away on a previous occasion.
Davis had returned last Monday after running away other times, but this time she hasn't come home, Zuccerella said.
"We have absolutely no information to work on," he said. "We don't think she was abducted at this time."
Anyone with information about Davis is asked to call police at 203-622-8030 or 203-622-8004, 24 hours a day.

LONDON--(EON: Enhanced Online News)--Technavio analysts forecast the global interactive whiteboard (IWB) market to grow at a CAGR of almost 7% during the forecast period, according to their latest report.
"Ultrasonic tracking is an advanced technology that is becoming very popular among consumers in the market. It is unique in the sense that it can turn any normal or regular whiteboard into an interactive surface. Additionally, vendors are offering IWBs bundled with accessories like stylus pens, cables, and pocket sensors."
The research study covers the present scenario and growth prospects of the global IWB market for 2016-2020. To determine the market size, the study considers revenue generated from the pre-k-12 and higher education sectors of the market.
The pre-K-12 segment of the IWB market was valued at USD 816.2 million in 2015 and is forecast to showcase a CAGR of 7.46%. Blended learning is the being widely adopted in the pre-K-12 segment to make the learning process more productive, resulting in increased adoption of hardware such as IWBs. The emphasis on developing the cognitive skills of students during formative years has played a crucial role in encouraging teachers to explore these technologies.

Technavio's sample reports are free of charge and contain multiple sections of the report including the market size and forecast, drivers, challenges, trends, and more.
Technavio analysts highlight the following four factors that are contributing to the growth of the IWB market:
- Increased adoption of blended learning
- Technological advancements
- Need for experimental learning
- Enhanced compatibility with digital content
Increased adoption of blended learning
Blended learning is widely adopted in the newer learning models like gamification and social learning due to factors like content digitization and bring-your-own-device (BYOD) policy. Countries like the US and the UK have already deployed this policy and are witnessing an improvement in the quality of education content delivered and learning outcomes. The positive outcomes witnessed is encouraging more institutions to allocate higher time and resources in developing effective blended learning models.
Institutions using display products such as IWBs encourage online learning and facilitate technology-enabled learning. Various teaching applications such as compass, charts, and tables are built-in the IWB software to enable students to grasp concepts better. The built-in speakers and multi-touch features further facilitate the establishment of a collaborative study environment. For instance, iBoardTouch IWB software has features such as annotation, highlight, and edit that enable interactive classrooms where faculty can oversee and encourage interactive discussion among students.
Technological advancements
Talking about the increased demands from consumers for advanced IWB systems, Jhansi says, "Ultrasonic tracking is an advanced technology that is becoming very popular among consumers in the market. It is unique in the sense that it can turn any normal or regular whiteboard into an interactive surface. Additionally, vendors are offering IWBs bundled with accessories like stylus pens, cables, and pocket sensors."
Vendors such as Luidia have developed cloud-based interactive tools through which teachers can take control of their lecture and presentation remotely. With advanced technologies like this, students can participate in activities such as answering questions and problem solving exercises through the set of tools provided to teachers.
Need for experimental learning
With an increasing need for graduates who are industry ready, there is a growing demand for education systems to consistently produce graduates of a high standard. To this end, institutions are making students industry-ready in manufacturing, healthcare, aerospace, and automotive segments. As most of these industries require personnel with knowledge in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) subjects, and institutions streamline their learning spaces and curricula to meet these needs. As a result, while consolidating the digital hardware infrastructure, institutions are deploying hardware such as IWBs to enhance teaching methods.
Enhanced compatibility with digital content
Institutions, after witnessing the overwhelming outcomes of digital learning, are converting paper-based textbooks into digital format. The use of IWB for the delivery of this digital content is on rise. Moving away from textbooks have resulted in the creation of relevant and compelling contents that are both interactive and virtual. Additionally, these devices can be used to create and stream rich media content in the form of videos, animations, and audios. Hence, this factor is one of the key drivers pushing for the growth of the global IWB market.

Remote Spectrum Monitor Platform for Spectrum Surveillance
07 October 2015 – Anritsu introduced the Remote Spectrum Monitor, a platform of modular and scalable products that helps operators generate a greater return on their multi-billion dollar spectrum investments and maximizes network capacity to meet consumer demand. Designed without a display or keyboard, Remote Spectrum Monitor automates the method of conducting radio surveillance, interference detection, and government spectrum policy enforcement while bringing greater flexibilities and cost efficiencies to network management.
"Operators have asked for a scalable and integrated solution to meet the test needs of their wireless network from a performance and cost perspective. Additionally, government regulators are often interested in monitoring the spectrum for illegal or unlicensed broadcasts. Anritsu addresses these requirements with Remote Spectrum Monitor, a bundled solution that provides an efficient platform that is flexible and expandable to evolve along with networks," said Gerald Ostheimer, Vice President/General Manager, Network and Infrastructure Business Enablement SBU (NIBU), Anritsu Company. "Remote Spectrum Monitor leverages Anritsu's wireless field test expertise and our network monitoring proficiency gained through our market-leading MasterClaw Monitoring™ tool to create an innovative solution to help optimize network operation."
Remote Spectrum Monitor features two spectrum monitor modules at introduction. Each module has power of arrival (POA) algorithms to monitor for interference and approximate the position where the interfering signal is being generated.
To address the rapid expansion of wireless communications, Anritsu has developed the MS27102A, which is designed to maximize network capacity by more efficiently solving issues associated with the presence of illegal or unlicensed signals that interfere with authorized transmissions. Certified with an IP67 rating, the MS27102A is the ideal solution for outdoor monitoring applications and can be wall- or pole-mounted. With an operating temperature range of –40⁰ C to +55⁰ C, one (or optionally two) weather-resistant RF In ports, a rugged weatherized case and splash proof design, the MS27102A performs in the most extreme weather conditions.
The MS27103A helps operators provide quality services to consumers and meet KPIs for a maximum return on network investment. Designed for multiple antenna applications that cover wide frequency ranges, the MS27103A is a rack-mountable multi-port RF In probe that constantly monitors the spectrum to ensure optimal performance. Anritsu has developed this monitor for cellular operators requiring spectrum monitoring coverage for multiple sectors and numerous frequencies per sector at their BTS locations.
Covering 9 kHz to 6 GHz, the probes have sweep rates up to 24 GHz/s, allowing capture of many interferers, including periodic or transient transmissions as well as short "bursty" signals. The modules also have low power consumption of < 11 watts.
The spectrum monitor probes are designed for robust field deployments, with capabilities for remote power cycling, automated system recovery protocols and secure firmware updates. A "Golden" firmware image is placed on each unit and can be used to return the probe to full operation in the rare case the firmware is corrupted.
Anritsu has developed Vision Application Software to automate collecting measurement data, providing useful information about network heath and spectrum use. Vision Monitor automatically records spectrum data, maintains a searchable spectrum history database, enables alarm functions for unusual signal activity and provides tools for managing the spectrum monitoring system.
Users can also write custom monitoring program applications using available SCPI commands. Each pair of IQ data output is time-stamped using high precision GPS signals, allowing the IQ data to be used for Time Distance of Arrival (TDOA) applications for geo-locating signal positions. IQ data time stamp resolution is less than 9 nSec for precise signal location calculations.
An integrated web server is embedded into each spectrum monitor probe. Using either Chrome or FireFox, a user from anywhere in the world can log in to the spectrum monitor module and control any of its features using a PC/laptop, tablet or smartphone. Each module also features Gbit Ethernet for fast transfers of measurement data and control information.
Remote Spectrum Monitor complements Anritsu's MasterClaw Monitoring multi-technology solution and expands Anritsu's network monitoring portfolio that helps operators protect their network investments, achieve higher operational efficiency and increase revenue. Trusted by leading carriers globally, MasterClaw provides 24/7/365 visibility of network, service, app and customer usage, along with unrivaled troubleshooting.

You might not know my friend Susie Hadland's name, but I'll bet you have seen her remarkably diverse portfolio of photography.
UNLV Runnin' Rebels fans during the heart of the Jerry Tarkanian era regularly saw Susie's work. Fans of nature photography surely were impressed by her field shots of wild horses.
It was those images I tried to concentrate on when I got a call from Susie recently, telling me in her gentle voice that she had been diagnosed with cancer. The cancer was spreading steadily. And while she was willing to fight, she also wanted her family and friends around her.
I didn't know what to say. I am thankful every morning for having my Amelia still with me after her arduous battle with brain cancer. In fact, some of the photographs of Amelia I cherish most were taken by Susie.
I could only tell her I loved her and cared for her.
Then I realized that someone who reads this might not know her work, so I asked her to send me a few photographs from her enormous collection.
I am thinking of Susie standing silently out among the Joshua, waiting for the moment near a water hole when those wild horses would stroll right past.
And smile for her camera.

1 – The Violence
We can learn a lot from the recent G8 and the G20 meetings in Muskoka and Toronto. Not only did we see the violence we come to expect from the Left but we saw an exceptional amount of violence, deceit, incompetence, and rights violations from the police and the McGuinty government.
To begin with the protesters it was interesting to see the make-up of the rabble and we had a good eyewitness account from John Thompson of the McKenzie Institute. In an e-mail he sent to us he describes the following…
OPSEU and CUPE passed a lot of their flags out, mostly to students who don't seem to be union members; Greenpeace hauled in a number of children, but there were aging Hippies a-plenty strewn through the march. Iranian Communists, some honest-to-god Maoists and plenty of other political fossils were shuffling along under banners of Marx and Engels.
He also described a rather disgusting disruption of the ceremonial repatriation of a fallen Afghan soldier in Toronto by OCAP – the Ontario Coalition Against Poverty.
Amongst the thousands of mal-contents were a few hundred "black-bloc". The black-bloc are not necessarily a single organization but a mix of like-minded fools who have taken lessons from the violence of past world meetings and employed the tactics of the most effectively violent demonstrations. A black-bloc is a tactic for protests and marches, whereby individuals wear black clothing, scarves, ski masks, motorcycle helmets with padding or other face-concealing items and often carry some sort of shields and truncheons. The clothing is used to avoid being identified, and to, theoretically, appear as one large mass, promoting solidarity or creating the illusion of a larger group.
Make no mistake, the type of people employing black-bloc tactics are dangerous people and responsible for great property damage and person injury. They are the reason there is a need for the massive security measures taken during these world meetings. Such people should be dealt with very severely by the law and the courts. If caught and convicted they should do considerable jail time. Unfortunately that is almost never the case.
On the other side we have Dalton McGuinty and Toronto Police Chief Bill Blair. On a request from Chief Blair McGuinty extended, in secret, the provincial Public Works Protection Act to take in part of the area inside the G-20 security barrier. In this area police would be given the power to ask for anyone's identity papers and to search anyone without cause or warrant. Chief Blair either mistakenly or intentionally announced that the act applied to 5 meters outside the perimeter fence as well. When it was discovered on Friday before the G-20 meeting that the Act only applied to inside the fence Blair told his officers but nobody else and his officers continued to violate the rights of people outside the fence. What did McGuinty do? Nothing. In fact he praised Chief Blair for his actions. So it would appear that both McGuinty and Chief Blair were complicit in clear violations of people's rights to a gross degree.
Over 1,000 people were arrested and detained at the G20, and while certainly some of those deserved to be the majority did not. People who lived in the area were arrested while out walking their dogs, or returning home from work. One journalist from the Guardian newspaper was beaten up by police even though he identified himself and apparently offered no resistance. Many personal items, which were in no way a threat to peace, were confiscated by police.
Just as the black-bloc should be held to account for their actions those few over-zealous police should as well.
Currently when a police officer violates your rights it mitigates any charges against you. I think this is not enough. When an officer of the law knowingly violates your rights, unlawfully detains you, steals your property, and beats you up they should be arrested and brought before a judge and if found guilty they should face appropriate sentencing up to and including time in prison and dismissal from the force.
As for Mr. McGuinty we can only hope the electorate holds him to account for his callous disregard for our rights.
2 – The Anarchists
One of the glaring over-sights by the media in the G20 protests was the incorrect labeling of the demonstrators as "anarchists". While it is true that a few like the "Southern Ontario Anarchist Resistance" think themselves as anarchists, descriptions I have found for them clearly indicate that they are not, nor are any of the other protesters. Some call themselves anarcho-communists which means Communist and while it was the ideological intention of the Communists to have a stateless and classless society they tried to achieve this bizarre goal by creating the biggest, most brutal, and deadly state of all, the Soviet Union.
Anarchy comes from the Greek and means "without ruler". Taken to its conclusion it means no state, no authority, lawless. None of the groups that were identified as taking part in the G20 protests could be described as that.
We have the various unions including OPSEU and CUPE. The unions advocate a socialist state. They are anti-capitalist. Many prefer the mixed-economy of constrained capitalism which in actuality is socialism and in particular, fascism. They advocate the confiscation of property and the redistribution of wealth by, guess what… the state. They are not anarchists. They use the courts and the state's institutions daily in their efforts to control their employers and to take more from those who earn it and give it to those who don't.
Members or supporters of Greenpeace and other environmental movements were demonstrating. Their goal is not anarchy but the use of power of the state over business, capitalism and the regulation of individual behavior. You cannot achieve these goals without authority, power, police and a state.
The various other brands of Maoists, Communists and Socialists demonstrating are far from anarchists; in fact a powerful, authoritative state is essential for their causes. They need jack-booted thugs to impose their will on us and while they may be against the police and the courts today they are for the police and the courts when it comes time to enforce their laws and regulations on us.
The anti-poverty groups and anti-homeless groups are advocating robbing Peter to pay Paul. Once again… socialists.
So why would QMI, The Globe and Mail and even the National Post incorrectly label the protesters as anarchists? It is because to correctly label them would mean that they would have to try and explain how the goals of the protesters are the same goals of Dalton McGuinty, Jack Layton, Sid Ryan, Stephen Harper, Barack Obama, David Suzuki and a host of millions like them. It is pure irony that the protesters are protesting the same leaders who are actually implementing their anti-capitalist agenda.
I scanned and read hundreds of news articles on the G20 protests and could not come up with a single one which correctly identified the protesters as left-wing, socialist, or even radical left. This is by design. If the skin-head neo-Nazis protest they are labeled as right wing, when in fact Nazi's are socialists too. Do we so soon forget what makes up the word NAZI? National Socialism!
It is always the Left which is protesting. It is always the Socialists who are violent. It is always the Anti-Capitalists who break the store-front windows and loot and burn.
How often do we see the thousands of suit and tie business men and women team out of their office towers on Bay street take to the street with balaclavas on their faces and beat people up with bats and smash their favorite Starbucks windows? Never. How often do we see shop owners and small businessmen who employ more people in this country than any other sector take to the street in violence to denounce the banks and oil companies? Never. Because these people know that the institutions of this country are essential to creating wealth and prosperity and employment.
It is only the Left, the Socialists, and the Anti-Capitalists who are causing the grief we see at these meetings. And the sooner we identify the root cause of the trouble the quicker we can deal with it.
3 – The Cost
I mentioned before that it was ironic that the left wing protestors are protesting the very leaders and institutions responsible for implementing their anti-capitalist agendas. Let's look at some of the conclusions of the G8 and G20 to see this in action.
Regarding wealth redistribution and foreign aid; At the conclusion of the G8 Summit Prime Minister Stephen Harper announced that, the total Canadian contribution for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health foreign aid will be $2.85 billion over five years.
For the environmentalists….Harper said
Among environmental issues, climate change remains top of mind. We recognize the scientific view that the increase in global temperature should not exceed 2 degrees Celsius compared to pre-industrial levels. Achieving this goal requires deep cuts in global emissions.
We strongly support the negotiations underway within the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change. We reiterate our support for Copenhagen.
With regards to the economy the socialists should be thrilled that Keynesian economics is alive and well and impoverishing us all.
An article in the Globe and Mail of yesterday by Report on Business Columnists and one-time Libertarian Party of Canada Leader Neil Reynolds correctly points out that not one of the G20 leaders is a free-marketer. They all subscribe to the Keynesian delusion that governments can invest money more efficiently and more productively than people can.
None of the G20 countries has pledged to end deficits. None has pledged to reduce its national debt. All will rely mostly on economic growth and tax increases to do the lifting, however limited, that the Toronto Consensus proposes.
Even though Keynes himself, only weeks before his death, refuted his theories and longed for the invisible hand of Adam Smith to save Britain we still see the world's nations clinging to the socialist ideal of government involvement in the economy. A true Capitalist would advocate the complete separation of the economy and the State and would see the G20 summit as a yet another attempt by the socialist elite to redistribute wealth and thereby impoverish the world.
Rather than protesting the G20 every single one of those left wing, socialist, anti-capitalist protesters should have gone to the summit and cheered on their beloved leaders and encourage them to continue their march to the left.

SaveGreenPond.org - in a nutshell.
There exists a small wetland in Bethlehem Township, PA, that is a very special place. This area, called Green Pond Marsh, is an Audubon Society IBA (Important Bird Area) where over 180 species of birds have been sighted.
There are many cornfields that can be developed in the Lehigh Valley, but the developer has chosen this 108-acre cornfield that contains Green Pond Marsh, to build more than 220 homes. The Green Pond Marsh could be preserved if the developer simply did not touch or impact the Marsh area (about 20 acres). But that amount of untouched land has been rejected by the owner (Green Pond Country Club) and by the developer (Traditions of America). Their plan guarantees them a huge profit. But the price for this will be sacrificing the viable Green Pond Marsh mini ecosystem, that most of the 180 species of birds presently rely on, and ruining a unique treasure in the Lehigh Valley.
Hopefully, proper conservation will prevail over greed. The fate of Green Pond Marsh is now in the hands of the attorneys.
Close, But No Cigar - March 8, 2016
The discussion about Green Pond Marsh has come a long way since mid-2014 when TOA first introduced their development plan to the public. Those were the days when TOA told everyone, untruthfully, that The Audubon Society, Hawk Mountain, and Ducks Unlimited supported their project (which would have destroyed Green Pond Marsh). Yes, those were the days when TOA claimed that only 1/3 of an acre of wetland existed in Green Pond Marsh, contrary to common sense as well as factual data.
The Army Corps of Engineers, after much badgering from SaveGreenPond, finally upped the wetland figure from 1/3 of an acre to 4.77 acres. SaveGreenPond accepted this figure, although in fact there is actually a little over 8 acres of wetland there! SaveGreenPond decided not to waste time, energy and money to argue anymore with that bureaucracy.
TOA's current report on the Green Pond Marsh area is much improved from their initial analysis (when TOA was insisting that Green Pond Marsh consisted of only 1/3 of an acre of wetland). But in terms of properly protecting the Marsh their current sketch plan falls short. Their current plan has detention areas in what is in fact part of the actual wetland! This area, where the wetland will be displaced/destroyed by detention areas, is what TOA is calling "open space"!
To properly protect the Marsh, the area on their current plans where their detention ponds are located should be left untouched, as a buffer; the detention ponds should be removed from the current detention pond area. The detention ponds should then be located OUTSIDE of that buffer area. That way, they would be PROPERLY protecting the Marsh and the habitat that over 180 species of birds rely on.
Green Pond Marsh is still under threat...
plans to put 265 homes
in an Audubon Society
'Important Bird Area',
(Green Pond).
"I want to make it clear that the National Audubon Society is not in favor of the proposed development, or any development at this site. Any development will diminish the wetland system that supports the many birds, and the proposed development by Traditions of America will probably result in the area supporting only a fraction of the birds that have been there annually, thus destroying the site as an IBA (Important Bird Area)."

The nation behaves well if it treats the natural resources as assets which it must turn over to the next generation increased, and not impaired, in value.
- Theodore Roosevelt, 1910
Green Pond Marsh is one of the best areas for wetland birds in the Lehigh Valley and perhaps, eastern Pennsylvania. This area has been attracting unusual birds since the 1970's and continues to do so. There is virtually no place of its kind in the Lehigh Valley. Over the years, the fields at Green Pond have attracted over 160 species of birds and at least 20 different species of shorebirds. READ MORE...
The Threats to the Birds of Green Pond Marsh
Bethlehem Township, PA
Threat 1: The Green Pond Country Club owns the Green Pond Marsh. The principal land conservation organization in the area is extremely interested in preserving the Green Pond Marsh and has met with and sent a letter to Green Pond Country Club (in June of 2012) expressing their interest in purchasing the parcel for conservation purposes.
The response from the Green Pond Country Club was that they "appreciate the Conservancy's interest in the 68 acres", but they "are proceeding with the developer."
"Today (summer 2014), a consortium of environmental conservation organizations is extremely interested in
purchasing the Green Pond Marsh area for preservation purposes."
Threat 2: In May of 2012 the road between Green Pond and the Green Pond Marsh was resurfaced and the road was raised enough to block the water from flowing across the road from the Pond overflow into the Marsh area during most high water events. This appeared to be good for drivers using the road, but unfortunately, it stopped water from reaching this extremely unique wet area. The raised road acts like a dam to contain the water on the "Pond" side of the road, so that now when the water overflows the road, there is much more water on the road creating hazardous driving conditions.
On January 31, 2013, for the first time since the Fall of 2011, the Pond water flowed over the raised road (see video below) and entered the Green Pond Marsh area. Thanks to heavy rains the previous night, the Marsh, which had been dry for over a year, finally was replenished with water. Unfortunately, because of the raised road, there is much more water on the road in places next to the pond where it DIDN'T occur before PennDOT raised the road level. So the driving conditions are now more dangerous for vehicles (and drivers) than it was before the road was raised. The solution to both of these problems - getting water to the former Marsh and fixing dangerous driving conditions on the road during high water events - is for PennDOT to put a drainage pipe under the road to reconnect the Pond overflow back into the Marsh area.

IEGH Breaks $1 Million USA Cumulative Loan Volume Level With New Daily Loan Records
IEGH Breaks $1 Million USA Cumulative Loan Volume Level With New Daily Loan Records
LAS VEGAS, NV--(Marketwired - May 07, 2014) - IEG Holdings Corp. (PINKSHEETS: IEGH) announced that since launching online lending in July 2013, cumulative loan volume has increased by 425% from $237,000 to $1,007,000. The rapid loan volume growth is being driven by online lending website www.mramazingloans.com, new joint venture arrangements with leading online personal loan lead sources and aggressive state license expansion. IEGH has lent $96,000 to customers in only the first 4 business days of May.
"It is fantastic to see the business firing on all cylinders with monthly loan growth rates exceeding what we achieved previously in Australia at a similar stage. We are entering a very exciting growth phase in a market 100 times the size of Australia's consumer finance market where we previously grew cumulative loan volumes from $1 million to $48 million in only 2.5 years," stated Paul Mathieson, Chairman/CEO and Founder of IEG Holdings Corporation. "While we are pleased with our recent growth performance, it is only the tip of the iceberg considering our planned expansion to 33 states over the next 6 months and our short term growth goal of lending over $1 million per month."

They sat at folding tables surrounded by the steel beams and concrete they had hoisted and poured during the past 183 days, their hard hats removed for the occasion.
On paper, the unfinished construction site that surrounded them marks a $130 million project to bring a new hospital to eastern New Orleans, a part of town still recovering from the damage floodwaters brought eight years ago when Hurricane Katrina came ashore.
But for the officials who campaigned for this — and the workers who found jobs through it — Friday offered a chance to take a break from work, congregate on the second floor of the soon-to-be emergency room, and consider the larger significance of the New Orleans East Hospital.
"There are very few things that are being built in the city of New Orleans that are as important to a particular neighborhood as this particular hospital," Mayor Mitch Landrieu told those gathered.
It's an "economic anchor" for this part of town, he said — one made possible through the sweat, ingenuity and commitment of all those gathered, 80 percent of them from New Orleans, he said.
"The stake that you're putting in the ground here is going to reverberate all across the city and all across America," the mayor said. "And it is the result of the hard work that all of you have done and the sweat that is coming out of you."
Alonquin Fisher, 27, donned the same fluorescent green T-shirt that all his colleagues wore for the event, the one emblazoned with the logo for Lemoine Company, the contractor overseeing the project.
Fisher has lived in eastern New Orleans since 1999. He spends his days laying plumbing for the fast-tracked facility, due to open next spring. Fisher said that when he drives by the site on his days off, he points out the building to his 7-year-old son.
"Look son," he says, "I'm building that."
Though the need for a hospital has long been central to public discussion about the future of eastern New Orleans, the project began zooming forward in January, after the city received news that the federal government would offer the financial backing it needed.
The Orleans Parish Hospital Service District A is overseeing the creation of the 80-bed hospital. Twenty-four-hour urgent care services have been available at the site since mid-2011.
Jerry Smith, general superintendent for the project, couldn't hide his excitement. The event was scheduled to celebrate the fact that all the concrete had been laid. Before the mayor arrived, before the caterer broke out the pork sandwiches and cookies, Smith raised his hands and cheered the workers.
"Look at you," he said. "Look at what we built in 186 days."
Fisher said he worried about his eastern New Orleans neighborhood for a while, but after coming here each day and seeing the progress, he feels certain about its future.
"Oh, it's gonna come back," he said.

An object on my keychain
So the second part of Week 1 Network Narratives was to tell a story, digitally, about an object on your keychain. Here you go. And a caveat. I kind of think this is cheating. This is an oral story that uses digital technolgy to record and share. If I had any chops at all, I'd remix this. But, well, I guess "if" says it all. And I also don't have a lot of time.

Many women put their dreams on hold until the kids are grown and off to college. Janet Evanovich, for example, decides to write a book like she always wanted and keeps on writing until one is published.
Then she strikes gold. One book becomes a bestseller, and eventually another makes it to the top of all the major bestseller lists, among them The New York Times. She sells the rights to Hollywood, and Mom becomes a celebrity author. She and Dad move to the mountains and live happily ever after.

According to Enoch, the fallen were locked in chains within the Earth.
There are both wicked and elect present in this place. We have the choice to repent in the water. This is the purpose for baptism (Immersion).
For I know the mysteries of the Holy Ones, for the Lord showed them to me and made them known to me, and I read them in the Tablets of Heaven.
They will then be revealed as they are. One group will fall back to hell. The other will rise to peace and safety.
And further the Lord said to Raphael: "Bind Azazel by his hands and his feet and throw him into the darkness. And split open the desert, which is in Dudael, and throw him there.
And the whole Earth has been ruined by the teaching of the works of Azazel; and against him write: ALL SIN."
The Bible refers the the Sons of the fallen as a cloud of evil
There are mysteries to this that need to be investigated. As our own history draws to a close after these last 6000 years, the answers will be revealed. This much we can be sure of.

There is a lot of speculation and dissecting needed, for sure.

I like the bit about the water bodies, makes sense considering we're mostly water and water is shown to vibrate consistent with what is influencing it. Imagine you could see the water of evil people, they would look hideous, and they're usually hideous in the flesh as well. Here's a jewel, have you considered the two distinct bodies of water on earth, one fresh and the other salty? Can you explain the significance of that? Theres some knowledge there I haven't caught yet.
Satan is always functioning like some bogus ass fool, why would anyone listen to him, he never knew anything, the reason he was kicked out was for his petty logic and foolishness. He didn't deny ignorance, lol, and was ejected for this reason. The goof actually refused to bow down before God's creation, yet he is one of God's creation, how do you confront the being that gave you life about your authority; Wow, he is too much. He was correct that he would lead many people astray, doesn't say much about humans. I think he's so funny because God made him that way, yet, he's too stupid to even realize that, so he represents the absolute unintelligent illogical of all beings yet, he is still a slave to god. Another lol.edit on 22-2-2013 by Kapablanka because: (no reason given)
That is TODAY! I love scripture. It's so exciting to see this happen in our day and age. Dreadful at the same time. We are all sinners that will face judgment.
After two days he will revive us; on the third day he will restore us, that we may live in his presence.
This reminds me, I need to include the lost books of Adam and Eve in this mix. There are many clues in this account, including a parallel to Enoch's 70 generations of judgment and the Mayan long count years of 5125 years. The book of Adam and Eve tell of 5.5 days until the WORD comes to rescue mankind. We find the exact same story in this account as well. So far, Enoch, Rumi and many others relate the same story.
Are we the fallen ones? Not quite.
It is my belief that one soul inhabits each domain. Like the sun, one soul resides over each system. Around each system is a galaxy. The central core of that galaxy is drawing the rest back to the source. As above, so below. We are mirrors of the macrocosm. The microcosm of this macrocosm is mirrored in our own domain of influence.
why did God love Jacob but hate Esau? We can ask the same of ourselves. Do we love our sin or do we love God? Do we give or do we take. God said, "Jacob (Farmer) have I loved and Esau (Hunter) have I hated. God loves the giver.
"Are we the fallen ones? No quite.
But you stated earlier we are. Which do you believe as I happen to think of us as a descendant into the material form but will rise in the spiritual.
The Qur'an identifies books known as the Tawrat (Torah) given to Musa (Moses), the Zabur (Psalms) given to Daud (David), and the Injil (Gospel) given to Isa (Jesus) as genuine divine revelations brought by true messengers to the Jews and the followers of Ibrāhīm (Abraham). Together with the Qur'an itself, and the now unknown Suhuf Ibrahim ("Scrolls of Abraham"), these make up the kitab, the Islamic holy books. Belief in the divine inspiration of all of these books is one of the fundamental tenets of Islam. However, Islam holds that since all the Books prior to the Quran have been corrupted by human hands, Muslims are only to get their guidance from the Qur'an.

To read the complete blog article which provides details and sample illustrations supporting the content in the video above, go here.
What follows is an abbreviated version of the blog content:
Can Indexed Universal Life (IUL) compete with an equity account? In some ways, it's an apples vs. oranges comparison in view of the equity account's potential for gain in excess of the participation cap of the IUL. On the other hand, the downside protection against loss of IUL gives it a competitive advantage, and for some clients, this is an overwhelming plus.
Let's just compare them using the same interest rate, say, 7.50%. We'll also credit the equity account with a 1.00% dividend since IUL typically excludes dividends from the crediting rate of the selected index. (Some companies may offer this feature, but I am unaware of any.) As you will see, the IUL outperforms the equity account by a wide margin.
The reason for this is the significant difference in the items that retard the growth of the equity account vs. those that impact the IUL.
Equity Account Limitations
- Management fees
- Income tax on dividends
- Income tax on realized short term gains
- Capital gains tax on realized long-term gains
- Turnover: Income tax and/or capital gains tax
Indexed Universal Life Limitations
- Haircut on the index used
- No credit for a dividend
- Mortality charges
Case Study
Tom and Anne Murray are both age 45. Among other assets, they have an equity account currently valued at $250,000 with a cost basis of $200,000. They are interested in acquiring more life insurance on Tom's life for the protection of their three children and are evaluating IUL as an appropriate policy.
Tom and Anne intend to use the equity account to supplement their retirement income. Their adviser suggests using the equity account as a source of premiums for the IUL and accessing the IUL cash value to enhance retirement cash flow. They want to examine this strategy.
To establish the premium pattern for the IUL, we used a calculator in our Wealthy and Wise® System to determine the level amount of after tax cash flow that could flow from the $250,000 equity account. We directed the calculator to deplete the account over five years taking into account the limitations noted above.

The calculator determined the equity account could produce $53,304 a year for five years (after tax) which we will use to fund the IUL. Starting at age 65, they will begin accessing cash flow from the IUL. Below is a graphic of the IUL results over 50 years (Source: Illustration of Values module in the InsMark Illustration System):
Click here http://insmarkblog.com/downloads/Blog-21-%28IUL%29.pdf to review the entire IUL illustration. Pay particular attention to Pages 2 and 3 where after tax retirement cash flow of $50,000 a year is illustrated (withdrawals to basis; loans thereafter). Note also that a substantial amount of death benefit is available in all years, a feature not associated with the equity account.
The next step is to compare the IUL with continuing the equity account with the identical after tax cash flow of $50,000 a year from each Strategy starting at their age 65. For this, I used Wealthy and Wise, and below are the graphics from that System showing the comparisons of net worth and death benefit.

(After Providing $50,000 a Year in After Tax Retirement Cash Flow from Both the Equity Account and the IUL)
Death Benefit Comparison

Equity rescue? You bet it is!

A Wealthy and Wise case typically requires input of all a client's financial information. This is not the case with an Equity Rescue Plan (or an Annuity Rescue Plan as described in Blog #10) http://insmarkblog.com/blog-10-annuity-rescue-made-easy.html . Both can be illustrated with minimal data input. An ancillary benefit is that it gives you a platform to discuss other planning opportunities with what is likely to be a very impressed client.

On the dusty expanse of suburbia that is Wisteria Lane, Vanessa Williams is ready to duel at 40 paces.
Desperate Housewives has always relied on a fun, trouble-making foil to shake up the staid suburban lives of the women of Wisteria Lane — think Edie, Mrs. Huber, Karl, may they all rest in peace. This season, ABC has employed a Wild West theme to announce the arrival of Renee Perry (Williams), who'll try on a (very chic) black hat. Executive producer Bob Daily introduces us to Renee, and tells us what all the other ladies — and at least one familiar gentleman — will deal with this season.

Renee Perry (Vanessa Williams)
Renee is Lynette's college roommate who's in the process of divorcing a professional baseball player. The old friends share a loving, though competitive friendship. But since Renee is played by the Artist Formerly Known as Ugly Betty's Wilhelmina Slater, she's also no stranger to a little deviousness. "She's come from New York and a very glamorous life and she moves to the suburbs, so she gets a little bored," Daily says. "So messing with people has become her hobby."

While Renee will initially spar only with Lynette about their very different paths in life, Daily says that eventually, Renee will insinuate herself elsewhere. "We're getting her tangled up with all the other women," he says. "She's the new gunslinger in town," keeping with his network's theme.
Paul Young (Mark Moses)
Paul Young, the widower of the tragic Mary Alice, has been freed from prison after being wrongfully being convicted for the murder of Felicia Tilman. He's served 10 years of hard time, and his former neighbors have a lot of explaining to do. "He is a little miffed that when he was arrested and sent off to jail in Season 2, nobody on Wisteria Lane supported him, nobody came to visit him," Daily explains. "While they all loved Mary-Alice, they didn't love him so much."
While Daily states flatly that Paul is back bent on revenge, his own life will be somewhat complicated along the way. For one, he's married — to Beth (Emily Bergl), a woman he met while in the slammer, and their union is not without its hitches. "He's thrilled to be out of prison and thinking, 'Great, now I can have a real-life relationship with my wife,'" Daily says. "And she's thinking, 'Oh no, I thought he was going to be in prison for the rest of his life, I didn't realize I would ever have to have a real relationship with him.'" Further, Beth has a secret, and it's something she really should have mentioned before saying "I do."
Mark Moses returning to Desperate Housewives
Meanwhile, stewing in her own jail cell, Felicia Tilman (Harriet Sansom Harris) may have been unsuccessful at faking her own death, but she still has a plan to prove that Paul killed her sister Martha, or at least hold him responsible. "She is not happy that Paul Young is out," Daily says. "She thinks that he should still have to pay for what he did, so she will use allies [on Wisteria Lane] to do that."
Bree (Marcia Cross)
Bree will be dealing with the dissolution of her marriage from Orson (Kyle MacLachlan)... by moving on. "Episode 1 is Bree's farewell to Orson," Daily says, adding that the door has been left open for MacLachlan to return.
She's also bidding farewell to her company, which she surrendered to Rex's blackmailing son Sam. But Daily says her joblessness will be the catalyst for the next stage in her life. "Bree's work was almost more psychologically fulfilling rather than that she needed the money," he says. "She had two very wealthy husbands and a successful business; I think she's going to be fine for a while."

Instead, she turns her attentions to remodeling her house, a job for which she enlists a young contractor (Brian Austin Green). In a twist, he'll actually be her love interest as well. "He's really unlike Bree's typical guy. He's blue-collar, a little earthier," Daily says. But they'll overcome their differences in the bedroom, he says. "They have a very passionate love life."
Gaby (Eva Longoria Parker)
Gaby and Carlos Solis, in their special way, will have dueling secrets this season. After Bree tells Gaby about Andrew's role in Carlos' mother's death, Gaby has a very characteristic, self-centered reaction. "She's like, 'Why did you tell me? Now I have this burden, this secret that I have to keep,'" Daily says. A now-cleanshaven Carlos will be keeping something equally as devastating from Gaby — at least initially. But that's all Daily will say about it for now.
Lynette (Felicity Huffman)
"[Lynette is] adapting to life as a mom of both a college-aged kid and an infant," Daily says. Returning to work will pose a particular challenge: child-care. Fortunately, she's had a house-full of babysitters. "She realizes that having so many children means that the older ones can help raise the younger ones," Daily says. Predictably, her attempts to mold Penny into a free nanny fail — with hilarious results.

In the midst of this chaos, she'll also be having houseguests. After the aforementioned Hurricane Renee, Tom's mom (Lois Smith) will arrive to help with the baby, but will end up needing some assistance herself.
Susan (Teri Hatcher)
Susan and Mike's money problems will continue throughout the season. They've rented their house — to Paul Young — and moved into a small apartment across town. "Her drive this season is to get back to the Lane, and the life she loves and her friends," Daily says. "We are going to let her getting a little desperate this season."
Her desperation will lead her to make a shocking career choice, with some help from her ebullient landlady, Maxine (Lainie Kazan). Maxine owns what Daily very carefully calls "an Internet-based business that's a little dark and shady." Susan will of course keep the new job, which gives Hatcher many opportunities for physical comedy, a secret from her friends and family. "It [is] hilarious; it's a great fit for her," Daily says.
Desperate Housewives premieres Sunday at 9/8c on ABC.

During an interim report on progress toward wastewater options, Water Protection Collaborative Executive Director Andrew Gottlieb told the county commissioners that a centralized sewer and taxing authority is "off the table."
During an interim report on progress toward wastewater options, Water Protection Collaborative Executive Director Andrew Gottlieb told the county commissioners that a centralized sewer and taxing authority is "off the table."
As his update began, Gottlieb said that while there's a lot of talk about creating a centralized system or taxing authority, that hasn't been the approach and won't be. To the extent that those claims are still being made, Gottlieb said that such an approach is "taken off the table."
He added that it was never an option placed on the table by the commission or the collaborative. He said that it's a plan with "exorbitantly high" costs and would overbuild the infrastructure for nutrient removal.
"It's clearly an alternative that we will not recommend to you," Gottlieb told the commissioners.
Gottlieb and Cape Cod Commission executive Director Paul Niedzwiecki were tasked by the county commissioners in March to develop options for a regional approach to wastewater. That effort, along with a Capewide wastewater management plan are due back to the commissioners by the end of the year.
Once the report on wastewater approaches is developed, Gottlieb said that the plan is to release the draft and hold public meetings on it to gain feedback. He said it seemed better to put the document out and get feedback before finalizing it for the commissioners.
During the discussion, Gottlieb and other commissioners referenced criticisms of the county's approach, indicating much has been misstated, but often repeated.
[PARAGRAPH CORRECTED] Much of that discussion was effectively to counter the efforts of one man and his near daily criticisms of county and town officials over wastewater. Former attorney Michael Farber of Brewster has been representing the interests of an Orleans property owner on Namskaket Marsh, who has expressed concerns about the effects of a planned expansion of the Orleans treatment facility. Farber has been pressuring the Town of Orleans, county officials and Gottlieb to release four years' worth of emails between Gottlieb and former Orleans Selectmen and current Water Protection Collaborative member Gussie McKusick [the original item incorrectly identified former Seleman Margie Fulcher].
Gottlieb provided an estimate of more than $1,200 to reproduce the emails, as allowed under the state Public Records law. Farber claims that the price tag is being used to delay or place a road block on the release of the emails, and has taken to calling it a cover-up.
In a past interview, Gottlieb said that he did not feel it was appropriate for the county to have to pay for an estimated five to six hours worth of his time, plus reproduction costs, to produce the emails. He said that the emails would be made available upon payment to the county.
In addition, Farber has made repeated claims that the county, through Gottlieb and Niedzwiecki, is planning to foist an expensive, centralized sewer system and authority on the entire Cape. He said they are ignoring the report of the $100,000 peer review report drafted late last year, which calls for adaptive management practices, a method of implementing small steps toward finding a solution, building and adapting based on what's learned.
County Commissioner Sheila Lyons of Wellfleet rejects that notion, saying that the commissioners and staff agree with the findings of the report and are using it as a basis for moving forward.
As expressed by Commissioner Bill Doherty of Harwich, the county will have "a role on a centralized basis, but not for a centralized solution."

The Great Gatsby Inspires A Tiffany & Co. Jewelry Collection
Baz Lurhmann's highly anticipated remake of The Great Gatsby, starring Carey Mulligan and Leonardo DiCaprio, has inspired a classic jewelry collection that could have been ripped right from the roaring 1920s. Created by The Great Gatsby costume designer Catherine Martin, the 13 show-stopping period pieces that form The Ziegfeld Collection were made in collaboration with jewelry staple Tiffany & Co.
"The jewelry we created for this momentous production of [F. Scott] Fitzgerald's famous novel and our designs for the Ziegfeld Collection reveal the style of the period and Tiffany as its premier jeweler," said John King, executive vice president of Tiffany & Co. "Tiffany was certainly part of this era. The brand was at the center of the parties of the rich and famous."
The collection, which went on display at Tiffany & Co.'s flagship Fifth Avenue windows in mid-April, features everything from a gorgeous sterling silver locket and pearl earrings to cufflinks and a stunning headpiece decked out in round-cut diamonds. "Catherine Martin can do any amount of work on jewelry on costume but that doesn't mean it will look right," said King. "It takes a great actor to illuminate a costume. The great privilege was I was able to work with the finest actors in the world. That's the biggest special effect."
Ranging in price from $135 to $875,000, The Ziegfeld Collection offers something for everyone regardless of your bank account. Check out the looks below and shop the collection here before The Great Gatsby hits theaters on May 10.
