Ayn Rand: A Sense of Life SYNOPSIS
Ayn Rand was born in 1905 in St. Petersburg, Russia. Defying the death warrant of the Soviet Union, she came to America as a temporary visitor in 1926 but remained for the rest of her life. Later, she would also defy the cultural and political views of contemporary America in such best-selling novels as THE FOUNTAINHEAD and ATLAS SHRUGGED. Her unique philosophy, Objectivism, challenged the cultural tradition of 2,500 years . . .

An instructional guide for physical education teachers and recreation leaders and for high school, college, and intramural coaches and players.
Michael Baccarini, BS, is director of physical education at the Paideia School in Atlanta, Georgia. He has been playing Ultimate since 1978 and has taught and coached it for the past 13 years. Coaching the U.S. boys' junior Ultimate team with Tiina Booth, he has won two world championship titles (1998 and 2004) and received a bronze medal in the 2000 World Championships. He also coached the U.S. boys' junior Ultimate team to gold at the 2006 World Championships, has won two national high school championships, and he finished second in a third championship (in a match against Tiina Booth's team).
Baccarini has led several coaching certification clinics for the Ultimate Players Association's Youth Outreach Program and served as national junior director for the UPA from 1999 to 2002. He is also a veteran Ultimate youth camp director; he founded and developed the Paideia Ultimate Summer Camp into a large and successful sports camp.
Tiina Booth, BA, is an English teacher at Amherst Regional High School in Amherst, Massachusetts. She won national high school championships in 1998, 2003, and 2004 as coach of the ARHS boys' team. An Ultimate player and coach for more than 25 years, she also won world championship titles as coach of the U.S. boys' junior Ultimate team in 1998 and 2004 (coaching with Baccarini). She is the founder of the oldest high school Ultimate tournament in the United States—the Amherst Invitational, founded in 1992. She cofounded the national high school tournament in 1998. Booth is a trainer for coach certification for the UPA and is the founder and camp director of the National Ultimate Training Camp, the first overnight camp for high school Ultimate players. NUTC has attracted players from throughout the United States, Canada, and South Africa.
In 1997, Booth was featured in Sports Illustrated's "Faces in the Crowd" for her coaching achievements, and in 2005 her team had a record of 57-3, including more than 20 wins against colleges as well as a college tournament championship title.
"Essential Ultimate is bound to become the bible for every Ultimate coach in the country as well as a basic resource for every player. From fundamentals to big-picture strategy and team building, the book is clear and concise. It's easy to see why Michael Baccarini and Tiina Booth are known as the best teachers of our sport."

I m doing a project where I have to display the entries of an Access database record in a web page using ASP. The form in the web page accepts user id and password, and ASP script compares it to the user id and password in the Access database. The type of the user id and password field in the Access database is integer. But the form accepts only text.
The problem is that the script does not compare two terms of different data types. And I cannot change the type of the field in the Access database to text from integer. Can anyone help me on this one?
When the script gets the user id and password from the database it is integer. I have to convert it to text somehow. Is there any function in VB Script to accomplish that? Its really urgent!

STOCKTON - Despite striking out 15 times, the Ports' eight timely hits were enough to claim their third consecutive victory and set themselves up for a series sweep of Visalia at Stockton Ballpark.
STOCKTON - Despite striking out 15 times, the Ports' eight timely hits were enough to claim their third consecutive victory and set themselves up for a series sweep of Visalia at Stockton Ballpark.
Antonio Lamas and B.A. Vollmuth homered, and Myrio Richard had two doubles and two RBI to lead the Ports to a 6-4 win over the Rawhide in front of 1,551. Stockton (3-3, 41-35 overall) gave Visalia (0-6, 39-37) its sixth loss in a row.
"It's all about the timely hits," said Richard, who is 7 for 11 with four doubles over the past three games. "You can have 10 hits, but with nobody in scoring position it won't matter. Those timely hits are big."
James Simmons (5-2, 2.93 ERA) won for the fourth time in five starts after allowing three runs on five hits and two walks. The former Triple-A Sacramento relief pitcher had a season-best seven strikeouts in his eighth start of the season.
The Ports scored in each of the first three innings to take a 4-1 lead. Bobby Crocker led off the first with a triple and scored on Addison Russell's single. After recording his 10th stolen base, tying Crocker for the team lead, Russell scored on Richard's double for a 2-0 lead.
"I've made a little change at the plate," Richard said. "I'm getting behind the pitches better and hitting (pitchers') mistakes."
Stockton's lead was cut in half in the top of the second when Sean Jamieson, a former Oakland A's prospect traded away in 2012, hit a solo home run. But Lamas answered with a solo homer, his sixth, in the second. Muncy's walk in the fourth led to a 4-1 lead on Richard's RBI ground-out.
Simmons was roughed up for two runs in the fifth but kept the lead when he turned a ground ball into an unassisted out at first base to end the inning.
Vollmuth's two-run blast, his 11th, pushed the Ports' lead to 6-3 in the bottom of the fifth.
Stockton reliever T.J. Walz pitched two innings and gave up a run in the seventh, cutting the lead to 6-4. Pedro Vidal threw a scoreless eighth and ninth for his third save of the year.

Hattersley 1960s
12 comments:
Thank you for this. I've always backed off sending pictures and stuff on Hattersley as I wasn't sure if you saw it as part of Hyde - it is, of course. I remember the houses being built in the early 60s and Mottram Old Road becoming even more bogged down with heavy traffic. With the clearing of the site we lost our Sunday afternoon walk venues and picnic places, the old Chapman Arms and, most of all, the quietness.
I don't think Manchester Corporation had considered the "little things of life" when they designed the estate and shipped people out of what were tight-knit communities in Gorton or wherever. For instance there were no shops, although I recall business booming at the New Inn! Cigarette vending machines were installed in the houses and the essentials were made available on the estate by milk, bread, grocery and greengrocery roundsmen. St Barnabas Church was a wooden hut and the first vicar was Rev Noel Pyatt.
Sadly, with the advent of the Hattersley Overspill came a terrific increase in the crime rate - petty crime mostly such as breaking into gas meters. Hyde Magistrates found their workload much greater and the North Cheshire probably added extra pages to cope with it all. Then came Hattersley's achievement of notoriety with the goings on at 16 Wardle Brook Avenue and, as they say, the rest is history.
Does anyone remember Mike Harding's song, The Hattersley Lament?

I'd forgot about Mikes song.. I couldn't find him singing it on You Tube but I've included a video which features the song.
As for us not featuring Hattersley before... we have once or twice, but I have to admit it as never been my favourite place and therefore I've not been that bothered about it... I was proberly hoping someone else would post about it.. ;O)
As for it's infamous history I think that and anything about 'Dr Shipman' is so readily available elsewhere me and Nancy have never touched on it.. I personally would not want to write about them to be honest..
I'm not trying to sweep such things under the mat but Hyde and Hattersley have far more worthy things to mention on here.
I'll try to sort out a few more posts if anything comes to light.. any pictures are most welcome.... Old and New
- Sunday, 12 February, 2012
Tom, I so agree with you that the two periods of great sadness in Hyde should not be majored on in this blog. It is in the past and the people of Hyde have stood shoulder to shoulder to rebuild their lives and community. Let these things never happen again.

Brilliant Tom, Thanks for using the song. Did you do the accompanying pictures?, if so it must have taken some time. Anyway well done.

Hi Paul.. sorry to say I found this one on You Tube and had nothing at all to do with it, wish I'd have thought of it. It would be an interesting project... any songs that would suit something like this for Hyde, Paul? 'Dirty Old Town' perhaps.. ha!
- Sunday, 12 February, 2012
Oh Tom, how could you? As one who has lived away from Hyde for 47 years, the song which takes me back is An Old Fashioned Town. You will be too young to remember it - I'm also too young, but having been a singer all my life it has taken pride of place in my repertoire.
Just a snippet:
There's n old fashioned house in an old fashioned street
In a quaint little old fashioned town;
It's a street where the cobblestones harass the feet
As it straggles uphill and then down.
And though to and fro through the world I must go,
My heart while it beats in my breast,
Where e'er I may roam, to that old fashioned home
Will fly back like a bird to its nest.
Wherever I am, Hyde is me.
- Sunday, 12 February, 2012
- Tom said...
Ha! I'll consider my wrists well and truly slapped.. ;O)
I will see if I can come across it and maybe make a video to go with it... I do remember it being sung as well... ;O) I think....

Fantastic photos and Video.
I've actually got a soft spot for Hattersley and it looks like it's going to be a very desirable place to live once all the building of private dwellings has been complete.

The first picture looks to me like Fields Farm Road.In 1965 I got myself engaged to a lad who lived on this road {but thats another story}.
At the top of the road the houses were allocated to the people from the Read Street area whose homes were being demolished.
These families were not accepted because they were local,seeing how I had a friend who lived in one of these houses I got myself into loads of rows.

May you help me ? : I am looking for a dear friend I meet several years ago which name is Denise Melling and the address at that time was: 60 Underwood Court, Hattersley Hyde, Cheshire.
Thanking in advance for any help, my best regards

If the registration process goes as anticipated, growers should have a new "reduced risk" herbicide this fall that has performed well in University of California trials. Raptor (imazamox) is related to a commonly used herbicide, Pursuit, but with significant differences in the spectrum of weeds that it controls. According to information prepared by two UC farm advisors for the 2000 California Weed Science Society meeting, Raptor's "primary advantage is that it controls a broader spectrum of weeds. This is a major advantage as the common, currently registered postemergence herbicides control grassy weeds or broadleaf weeds but not both," they pointed out.
Other advantages cited for the BASF product were a shorter residual than Pursuit and a much lower use rate. The farm advisors reported that Raptor is more effective than Pursuit against fiddleneck, but less effective for red maids control. If prickly lettuce, sowthistle, common groundsel and lambsquarter are present, the herbicide will "likely have to be tank mixed."
Earlier in the year a grower member of CAFA asked for information on dodder control. Relief is on the way in the form of a pending supplemental label that BASF has requested for Pursuit. Postemergence trials conducted by San Joaquin County Farm Advisor Mick Canevari showed a high degree of suppression at a use rate of 0.094 pounds of active ingredient per acre.
The herbicide suppressed dodder by 94 percent when an evaluation was made 30 days after treatment and by 79 percent at 60 days after application. Hasten and UN 32 were tank mixed with the herbicide at rates of one and two quarts per acre, respectively. Pursuit had enough effect on dodder to prevent seed production, the key to long-term management.
Another promising development for alfalfa pest control programs is a selective, broad-spectrum insecticide that will help combat a growing armyworm problem. In April, DuPont submitted a petition for tolerance to the U.S. EPA for Steward (indoxacarb).
Many California cotton growers are familiar with the insecticide from last year's Section 18 registration for armyworm control. It received EPA registration for cotton earlier this year and will hopefully get regulatory approval for alfalfa in time the 2002 use season. Steward has a unique mode of action and low impact on beneficial insects, making it a good fit for resistance management and IPM programs. A review of data from last year's Section 18 for cotton showed top-notch armyworm control and an effective residual, a welcome development for alfalfa growers who are reporting multiple applications of currently registered insecticides to get effective control of the destructive insect.
Besides worms, Steward also controls alfalfa weevils and suppresses lygus bugs. The manufacturer only has limited data on control of the granulate cutworm, a major problem for growers in the low desert who are using pyrethroids. More trials will be conducted and if initial results are repeated in future research growers will have a selective material to combat a serious pest

A DESPERATE man told how his life has been left in tatters because of the new stringent santions on claiming jobs seekers' allowance.
Nicky Cooke, 34, has been left homeless after his benefits were stopped and fears many others could be in the same hopeless position.
It comes after the Government changed the allowance system, last October, and put sanctions on people deemed not to be trying hard enough to find a job.
But Mr Cooke said they were getting too tough and he had provided proof that he had contacted scores of employers each week.
He said: "They were saying I'm not actively seeking work, there's a 'doubt' on my claim form. "But I'm doing more than enough to look for work, every time I go there on a Tuesday to sign on I give them my job search list and I'm filling out both sides of the form."
The Echo reported last week that the Storehouse charity, which provides food parcels to the needy in Southend, had been overwhelmed since the sanctions came into place. They are now having to feed more than 200 people a day - compared with just 60 a day three years ago.
Mr Cooke said he would now be launching a petition outside the job centre to find out how many people are in the same boat and want the system changed.

Despite Rain, Drought Hangs On In Southwest Minnesota
ST. PAUL (AP) - The heavy rain and even snow that has covered much of Minnesota for the past several days hasn't quite made the drought go away.
The updated U.S. Drought Monitor map released Thursday shows that the area of Minnesota in drought has shrunk from nearly 19 percent last week to under 8 percent this week. An area of moderate drought is now limited to a patch of southwestern Minnesota, south of the Minnesota River. Around 23 percent of Minnesota is still rated as at least abnormally dry, including pockets of central, west-central and north-central Minnesota. That compares with 42 percent last week.
The weekly Drought Monitor is based on data through 8 a.m. Central time on Tuesday, so next week's update may show continued improvement from the ongoing rain.

Beautifully illustrated story with a heart warming ending. Plot is a bit boring but there we are. Often seems like the text is an after thought with some wonderfully illustrated children's books.
What a delightful book! The illustrations are beautiful, the story was so sweet, and it was enjoyable reading this book out loud. My two year old squealed delightedly at each progressively louder roar.

STOCKTON - Members of the Stockton Police Department's Community Response Team and the multiagency San Joaquin County gang task force arrested a man and confiscated seven guns Wednesday afternoon in south Stockton, authorities said.
STOCKTON - Members of the Stockton Police Department's Community Response Team and the multiagency San Joaquin County gang task force arrested a man and confiscated seven guns Wednesday afternoon in south Stockton, authorities said.
Officers went to a home in the 1900 block of East 9th Street about 4:30 p.m. in search of a Sacramento robbery suspect, police said. When they arrived, a man sitting in front of the home ran away, officers said.
Charlie Lo, 26, was apprehended after discarding a loaded and stolen handgun during a brief foot pursuit, police said. Officers searched the area where Lo was sitting and located a second loaded and stolen handgun, police said. Authorities found five more guns inside the home, including a sawed-off shotgun, officers said.
Lo was arrested on suspicion of carrying a concealed firearm, carrying a loaded firearm, being a felon in possession of a firearm, possession of a firearm while on probation, unlawful possession of a firearm and receiving stolen property, authorities said.
PINE GROVE - The Amador County Sheriff's Office is trying to locate three men who stole marijuana, money and a shotgun from a Pine Grove home during a drug deal that turned into a drug heist, authorities said.
Detectives were called shortly after 5 p.m. Monday on a report of an armed robbery at a home occupied by a 34-year-old woman, a 29-year-old man and a 14-year girl, officials said. Inside the home, investigators discovered marijuana plants and processed marijuana. Detectives learned that the two adult residents had recommendations for the use of medical marijuana.
The victims told investigators that, due to financial hardship, they arranged to meet the robbers to sell them marijuana, authorities said. After talking outside the home for a short time, the victims invited the robbers into their home.
Once inside, the robbers pulled guns, ordered the man to the ground in a bedroom and forced the woman outside, where she was ordered to the ground on the driveway, authorities said. The 14-year-old girl was in a different room in the home and was not physically harmed.
The robbers stole about 4 pounds of processed marijuana as well as drug paraphernalia, cash, a shotgun and a cellphone before fleeing, detectives said. Investigators believe they have identified one of the robbers as a resident of the Sacramento area. They are trying to locate the man and identify his accomplices.
STOCKTON - A man was arrested after he threatened officers with a knife and a screwdriver Thursday morning in south Stockton, police said.
Officers went to a home in the 2000 block of South El Dorado Street to conduct a welfare check, authorities said. When they arrived, they were confronted by 50-year-old Lucio Rivera, who fled into a bathroom after brandishing a knife and a screwdriver, police said.
Officers forced entry into the bathroom and found Rivera, who was still holding the knife in a threatening manner, authorities said. Officers used a stun gun to subdue the man, but he still refused orders to show his hands. The stun gun was deployed a second time before Rivera was taken into custody.
Rivera was taken to a hospital for medical clearance before being booked into the San Joaquin County Jail. He was arrested on suspicion of brandishing a weapon and resisting arrest, police said.
STOCKTON - A police officer was struck in the face by a drunken man who wandered into traffic about 11:30 p.m. Wednesday near Harding Way and Palm Avenue, authorities said.
Anthony Binder, 21, resisted officers and hit one in the face before being placed in a restraint device, police said. Binder was arrested on suspicion of battery on a peace officer and public intoxication, authorities said.

Scaphirhynchus platorynchus
|Scope: Global
Language: English
|Scientific Name:
|Scaphirhynchus platorynchus (Rafinesque, 1820)
Common Name(s):
|Red List Category & Criteria:
|Vulnerable A3d+4ac ver 3.1
|Year Published:

|Surprenant, C. (U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service)
|St. Pierre, R. & Pourkazemi, M. (Sturgeon Red List Authority)
The Vulnerable assessment reflects a range reduction of approximately 30%, primarily as a result of past dam construction which is not realistically reversible. In addition, a population size reduction of 30% or more is projected or suspected to be met within the next 10 years or three generations, whichever is the longer, due to actual or potential levels of exploitation.
Alteration of large rivers and construction of locks and dams for navigation purposes has contributed significantly to the decline of shovelnose sturgeon by blocking access to ancestral spawning grounds and by eliminating its requisite lotic habitat. In addition to impacts related to navigation, much of the habitat available to the shovelnose sturgeon within its historic range, has also been altered by water resource development projects designed to provide for irrigation, public water supply, public recreation, and the production of electricity. Dams have blocked spawning migrations, isolated populations, destroyed rearing and spawning habitats, and altered food supply as well as changed flow, turbidity and temperature regimes (Dryer and Sandvol 1993).
While shovelnose sturgeon roe is used as an acceptable caviar, over-harvest has not yet been a major detriment to the species.
Much of the information in this species account was taken with permission from Shovelnose sturgeon, Scaphirhynchus platorynchus by Jerry L. Rasmussen in "A Compendium of Fishery Information on the Upper Mississippi River Third Edition 2001", a publication of the Upper Mississippi River Conservation Committee currently undergoing final review.
|Previously published Red List assessments:
|Range Description:
|The species occurs throughout much of the Mississippi and Missouri rivers and portions of their largest tributaries (Lee 1978), including the lower Ohio River (Smith 1979). The species once occurred as far upstream in the Ohio River as Pennsylvania (Trautman 1981). Shovelnose sturgeon are rare above Newburg, Indiana (Wallace et al. 1990), but relatively abundant below Smithland Locks and Dam at Ohio River kilometer 1,479 (Greg Conover, USFWs, pers. comm.). The Scaphirhynchus species, previously reported as shovelnose sturgeon in the drainages of Mobile Bay in Alabama by Smith-Vaniz (1968), were reclassified by Williams and Clemmer (1991) as the Alabama sturgeon (Scaphirhynchus suttkusi). The only known subpopulation of shovelnose sturgeon in the Alabama portion of the Tennessee River is apparently extinct. Shovelnose sturgeon may still occur sporadically in the lower Tennessee or Cumberland Rivers (Etnier and Starnes 1993). A disjunct subpopulation once occurred in the Rio Grande of Northern New Mexico (Tomelleri and Eberle 1990), but only one specimen is known to exist from that subpopulation (Blair et al. 1968). Eddy and Underhill (1974) report shovelnose sturgeon occurring in the Hudson Bay drainage of the Canadian Plains. This may be an error, however, since Scott and Crossmen (1973) in Freshwater Fishes of Canada make no reference to the species in that country.
|Countries occurrence:
Native:United States (Alabama - Regionally Extinct, Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico - Regionally Extinct, North Dakota, Ohio - Regionally Extinct, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania - Regionally Extinct, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, West Virginia - Regionally Extinct, Wisconsin, Wyoming)

|In 2001, all of the states within the current and historic range of the shovelnose sturgeon were surveyed by the Mississippi Interstate Cooperative Resource Association (MICRA) to determine the shovelnose sturgeon status. Ten of the range states responded with sufficient information to allow the author to place the individual states into one of four classifications: (1) extirpated, (2) rare/vulnerable/imperiled, (3) stable and (4) undetermined. The remaining range states were assigned these classifications based on information provided by the Nature Conservancy at their website: http://www.natureserve.org/explore. The species has been extirpated from five states, is rare to imperiled in four states, stable in 10 states and has undetermined status in five states.
Historically, shovelnose were apparently common in the Tennessee River system, all the way to the French Broad River on the Tennessee-North Carolina border before the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) reservoir system was constructed (Etnier and Starnes 1993). These authors note that, while the species may still occur there sporadically, no recent records exist for either the Tennessee or Cumberland rivers. Sprague (1960) documented the decline in catch and condition of the shovelnose over a five-year period in the Missouri River after impoundment of Lewis and Clark Lake. However, since then these subpopulations have apparently recovered and stabilized (Hesse and Carreiro 1997). Trautman (1981) stated that the shovelnose was considered abundant in the Ohio River until 1911 when the river began "ponding" as a result of construction of the slackwater navigation project, thereby partially stopping the spawning run. After that, Trautman (1981) said fishermen reported a drastic decrease in shovelnose sturgeon abundance. Mettee, et al. (1996) considered the shovelnose extirpated in Alabama.
Today, the shovelnose sturgeon still occurs in most of the large tributaries of the Upper Mississippi River from Wisconsin to Illinois. Hesse and Carreiro (1997) listed 59 rivers, creeks, oxbows and bayous in the Mississippi River Basin where shovelnose sturgeon occurred historically, but only 44 of these were listed as supporting the species today. In Illinois, the species is most abundant in the Wabash River, a tributary to the Ohio River (Smith 1979). According to Smith (1979) the Wabash is less impacted by flood-control dams and other modifications than are the remainder of Illinois' large rivers.
In the mainstem Mississippi River, numbers of shovelnose sturgeon have decreased sharply since 1900 (Becker 1983), although the species is still commonly taken by commercial fishermen (UMRCC Annual Reports; Etnier and Starnes 1993. Several authors have noted a lack of natural reproduction in areas of the Missouri and have attributed it to man-made alterations to shovelnose sturgeon habitat (Bailey and Cross 1954, June 1977, Moos 1978). Meanwhile, upstream from the Missouri River mainstem impoundments shovelnose sturgeon remain abundant in the river below Great Falls, Montana and in the major tributaries (Montana DNRC 1977). Robison and Buchanan (1988) describe the shovelnose as especially abundant in the unimpounded portions of the Arkansas, lower White and Red rivers in Arkansas. According to Hesse and Carreiro (1997) state biologists attribute the success of White River sturgeon to a somewhat natural hydrograph with seasonal floods, good gravel bars, and backwater complexes.
Hesse and Carreiro (1997) concluded that while shovelnose sturgeon have probably been considered less at risk than other sturgeon species, evidence suggests that deterioration of the shovelnose's overall range is keeping pace with that of the other sturgeon species.
Obrecht (1996) noted that shovelnose have been reintroduced into the Bighorn River Basin in Wyoming, where they had been extirpated by dams which blocked spawning migrations from downstream in Montana. West Virginia and New Mexico have also developed reintroduction plans for rivers where the shovelnose has been extirpated (Keenlyne 1997). The Ohio Division of Wildlife reports a plan to reintroduce the shovelnose sturgeon in the Ohio River above Meldahl Lock and Dam at Ohio River kilometer 702 (Scott Schell, pers. comm.). The species has not been recorded from the middle Rio Grande in New Mexico since 1875 (NMDGF 1991).
|Current Population Trend:
|Additional data:
|Habitat and Ecology:
|Smallest of the sturgeon species in North America, shovelnose sturgeon can tolerate high turbidities and are usually found in the strong currents of main river channels. They are often found over sand and gravel substrates feeding on aquatic insects, mussels, worms and crustaceans. Spawning normally occurs from April through early July with mature shovelnose migrating upriver to spawn over rocky substrates in flowing water between 19–21ºC. Individuals mature after 5–7 years of age, at total lengths of approximately 500 mm and 630 mm for males and females, respectively. Their weight at this age ranges from 0.9–1.3 kg (National Paddlefish and Sturgeon Steering Committee 1992).
River sturgeon are uniquely adapted to mainstem river systems which are characterized by their large scale, diverse habitats, and a dynamic nature (Beamesderfer and Farr 1997). Adaptations include mobility, opportunistic feeding habits, delayed maturation, longevity, and high individual fecundity. Unfortunately, in recent decades these same life history characteristics have become a handicap to the species and led to population declines because of man-induced habitat fragmentation and destruction (Beamesderfer and Farr 1997).
|Major Threat(s):
Alteration of large rivers and construction of locks and dams for navigation purposes has contributed significantly to the decline of shovelnose sturgeon by blocking access to ancestral spawning grounds and by eliminating its requisite lotic habitat. In addition to impacts related to navigation, much of the habitat available to the shovelnose sturgeon within its historic range, has also been altered by water resource development projects designed to provide for irrigation, public water supply, public recreation, and the production of electricity. Dams have blocked spawning migrations, isolated populations, destroyed rearing and spawning habitats, and altered food supply as well as changed flow, turbidity and temperature regimes (Dryer and Sandvol 1993).
While shovelnose sturgeon roe is used as an acceptable caviar, overharvest has not yet been a major detriment to the species. This may be due to its relatively small size in comparison to lake sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens) and the pallid sturgeon (Scaphirhynchus albus), the other two sturgeon species found historically throughout its range. Shovelnose are locally abundant in some areas where large river habitat is still fairly intact and modest commercial fisheries occur in a few states where some acceptable riverine habitat still exists (National Paddlefish and Sturgeon Steering Committee 1992).
Hesse and Carreiro (1997) recorded causes for shovelnose sturgeon decline (as reported to them by state biologists) as habitat degradation, loss of natural hydrograph, sedimentation, channelization, loss of spawning habitat, flood control and navigation dams, artificial water management, water temperature alteration, and past over-harvest. Boreman (1997) noted that sturgeon life history and habitat use attributes make the species highly vulnerable to fishing pressure. Specifically, he attributed this vulnerability to their older age (than most fishes) at full maturity, lower fecundity values, and older age at which 50% of the lifetime egg production is realized with no fishing mortality.
Shovelnose sturgeon continue to be commercially harvested in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri, and Wisconsin. Arkansas closed shovelnose sturgeon to commercial fishing on its state waters of the Mississippi River in 2000, as a measure to reduce the by-catch of endangered pallid sturgeon. Keenlyne (1997) reported the commercial harvest of shovelnose meat and roe in 1992 as follows:
Arkansas: 14,500 kg meat; 88–110 kg caviar
Illinois: 22,335 kg meat; 77 kg caviar
Indiana: no data on meat harvest; 55 kg caviar
Iowa: 34,603 kg meat; 55 kg caviar
Kentucky: no data on meat harvest; 88 kg caviar
Missouri: 26,460 kg meat; 66–88 kg caviar
Wisconsin: 11,025 kg meat; 33 kg caviar
|Conservation Actions:
|Arkansas closed shovelnose sturgeon to commercial fishing on its state waters of the Mississippi River in 2000, as a measure to reduce the by-catch of endangered pallid sturgeon. It is listed on CITES Appendix II.

India is investigating Wal-Mart Stores Inc. over allegations it violated the country's foreign exchange rules, a senior law enforcement official with knowledge of the matter, told Reuters on Friday.
An Indian lawmaker has accused Wal-Mart of "clandestinely and illegally" investing $100 million in the multi-brand retail business of its wholesale joint venture partner, Bharti Enterprises, as early as 2010, before India allowed foreign companies to operate front-end stores.

"Yes, the Enforcement Directorate has initiated an investigation into the allegations against Wal-Mart," said the official, who declined to be named.
Wal-Mart has denied the allegations since they first surfaced last month and said it is in compliance with Indian laws.

A day after
wrecking havoc causing a car accident in the city of Florence, Italy, Snooki was pictured above yesterday taking a stroll.
As reported, the Jeresey Shore star slammed into a police car on Monday, before being taken into police custody though she wasn't arrested.
UsWeekly now has more details on the incident with the latest being that the Snooks' driver's license was revoked as a result of the accident.
And while Snooki and her costar Deena Cortese (who was in the passenger seat at the time) were not injured, two Italian police officers were sent to the hospital for minor injuries including whiplash, cuts and bruises.
Snooki is not expected to face any criminal prosecution, but she could be taken to court in a civil action suit by the two police officers. They have up to 90 days to decide whether or not they want to sue her. It has also been confirmed that the 23-year-old did not have any alcohol in her system at the time of the crash.
Meanwhile, Snooki took to her twitter page days ago and revealed her weight loss secret! It seems in addition to diet and exercise, she also had the help of a weight loss supplement.
"I really do look good! #Sn00ki ♥ @Zantrex!" tweeted Snooki. Safe to assume she has an endorsement deal with the company. You can click here to see weight loss photos of the Snooks!

Google Inc (NASDAQ: GOOG), a global information technology leader, specializes in how people access and interact with information. Google provides the leading search engine along with many online services such as Gmail, Adsense, and Chrome. In fiscal year 2010, Google reported $29.3 billion of revenues and $8.5 billion of net income. Google operates in over 50 countries with unique domain names for each country. Internet advertising is the fastest growing segment of the advertising market, but still only represents 8% of total U.S. advertising dollars -- suggesting considerable room for further growth. To tap these opportunities, Google has used the profits from its paid search business to support innovative projects such as Google Editions and the Android Market.
Google's search tools allow users to efficiently search through vast amounts of web-based information, organizing and delivering results based on relevance. It also has a long and growing list of products in many other areas of computer applications. Consumer usage of its products is free, financed through advertising (96% of 2010 Revenues) and licensing (3% of 2010 Revenues) sales.
Co-founders Larry Page and Sergei Brin created Google's core PageRank technology to archive and organize Internet webpages and develop a searchable database. The basic tenet of PageRank is that when one website links to another, the first website is endorsing the second. Pages are then "ranked" according to the ecosystem of all web pages archived. While the company has since utilized numerous other ranking systems, PageRank still remains a central technology. Google also creates search products for photos, videos, and specific websites types such as blogs. Google does not charge consumers for its search capabilities, receiving most of its revenue from advertising and a small portion from licensing its search technologies to enterprise companies.
Advertising is a major revenue driver for Google, with 96% of its revenue coming from advertising. This dependence is a concern in a down economy since advertising is generally the first source of cost-cutting for companies[1]. Google has seen an increase in the number of paid clicks generated by an increase in aggregate traffic and the continued global expansion of their products, advertiser base and user base. The decrease in the average cost-per-click paid by advertisers was primarily the result of the strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies.[2]
Since 2000, the number of worldwide Internet users has more than doubled. However, certain regions have grown faster than others. Google seems to be positioning itself to grow even more substantially internationally likewise JBVEF especially in the Financial Sector, earnings, and advertising Google is poised to hold its own and continue to deliver top notch results. The US market is responsible for around 48% of Google's revenue by geography while 39% comes from the rest of the world (the UK brings in around 13%).[3]
Google has completely transformed the world of advertising in its efforts to connect users to information. Its free offerings have been highly disruptive to well-rooted industries, provoking frequent legal conflict. Viacom is seeking damages in excess of $1 billion from the posting and distribution of copyrighted materials on YouTube. With the 2004 launch of Google Book Search, authors and publishing houses reacted to the millions of copyrighted books being downloaded for free. The Authors and the Association of American Publishers sued Google for copyright infringement in 2005. Through a settlement, Google continues to make books digitally available, to the chagrin of publishers and book retailers such as Amazon. With the launch of Google Earth, the appeal of America Online's MapQuest basically disappeared overnight. Google's Android-based smartphones, equipped with free GPS navigation services, have upended the need for TomTom, which comes at a charge to consumers. Google's Gmail, Google Apps, and Chrome also competes directly with Microsoft's Hotmail, Office Suite, and Internet Explorer respectively[4].
Although Google in its broadest perception has gained an unparalleled marketplace acceptance, in the narrower search market its competitors are Yahoo! (YHOO) and Microsoft (MSFT), which is currently expanding into the online search and advertising business within the US and Baidu.com (BIDU) in China. Yahoo, founded four years before Google, was historically the leading online search site, but in January 2009, Google made headlines by overtaking Yahoo in unique users per month. Relative to Yahoo!--and almost any company--Google's expenses are quite low. The expense breakdown suggests different priorities for the two companies: Google's highest cost sector is product development, at 9%, while Yahoo! allocated 20% of revenues for sales. And while Google spreads its costs evenly among the three principle areas, Yahoo!'s expenses are clearly concentrated in sales, with development and administration trailing far behind.
Because Microsoft has many sources of revenue beyond advertising, it is difficult to compare it in more detail to Google and Yahoo!.
With a plethora of social networking websites and platforms making their way onto the internet, Google faces stiff competition from websites such as Facebook, Twitter, Groupon and LinkedIn.
Google's Android smartphone operation system is also in direct competition with Apple (AAPL) , Microsoft (MSFT) and Research in Motion (RIMM) in the fast-moving, competitive smartphone market. These corporations also uses JAVA programming [[1]] (BlueJ) language for development and research as well.
As Google expands into e-commerce and Local services using its Google Offers, Checkout, and Wallet , it is also encroaching on an estalished player in Groupon as well as Facebook's Deals.

BRASILIA, Brazil (AP) — Top figures found guilty in Brazil's biggest corruption scandal turned themselves in to police on Friday, just days after the supreme court ruled that they must begin serving their prison sentences, a blow to long-standing immunity in the country where the rich and powerful rarely face punishment for crimes.
The case involves a scheme that came to light in 2005 in which top aides to former President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva paid off legislators so they would support the ruling Workers Party initiatives in Congress. Silva was never implicated.
Jose Genoino, the former leader of Brazil's ruling Workers Party, and Jose Dirceu, Silva's former chief of staff, were among those who turned themselves in.
Genoino was sentenced to nearly seven years for conspiracy and bribery. Dirceu got nearly 12 years for the same crimes.
In September, the top court weighed a technical wrinkle in the case and decided that defendants had the right to a new trial for the criminal counts for which they earlier received at least four not-guilty votes from the panel of 11 top court judges
That means 12 defendants will get new trials for some specific counts, including Dirceu and Genoino for conspiracy, and Joao Cunha, the ex-leader of Brazil's lower house of Congress, for money laundering.
Those new trials are expected next year.
The move will not totally clear most of the defendants because they were convicted on at least one other charge by too wide of a margin to allow for an appeal. But it could allow them to win a less harsh kind of imprisonment and be eligible for parole earlier.
Some, like Dirceu, may avoid serving their sentences full-time in prison by being placed in a "semi-open" regime that allows them to do supervised work during the day and sleep in prison at night.

Do you have any questions or suggestions? Contact us now Thomas Keller 1&1 Domains Expert
New domain extensions FAQ
1. What are nTLDs?TLD stands for top-level domain. This is the official term for the part of the domain name that appears right at the end. Currently, the most common top-level domains are .com, .net, .org, and country-specific extensions such as .co.uk, .de and .fr. The 'n' in front of TLD simply stands for 'new'. With an expected start in November 2013, a wide range of creative new domain extensions will become available. These nTLDs will allow for a huge choice of potential combinations to form individual domains.
2. What's the purpose of the new domain extensions?Currently, searching for suitable, available domain names is becoming increasingly difficult. The nTLDs are intended to provide a wide range of suitable domain options to meet the needs of websites, brands and organizations. The days of scarce domains are numbered! With the new domain extensions, businesses and individuals will have a far greater choice when it comes to choosing a suitable domain name. Why not register a new domain extension that perfectly fits your company and business category? Differentiate yourself from the competition while also building customer confidence!
3. What new top-level domains will be available?Over 1,400 new top-level domains were submitted during the application process, many of them related to well-known brands. So over the next few years we may see large international corporations using their own domain extensions, for example, .bmw, .google or .zara. As well as brand TLDs, hundreds of generic extensions were also submitted. A complete overview can be found in our list of generic domain extensions.
4. What new top-level domains will 1&1 offer?This is up to you. At the moment we have all the new domain extensions in our database, with the exception of those associated with trademarks.Based on the domain pre-reservations we receive, decisions will be made on which new domain extensions will become available for registration at 1&1. There are currently no set prices or terms and conditions; these will be decided once the offered domains have been finalized. 1&1 plans to offer hundreds of new TLDs, allowing everyone to easily find their ideal domain.
5. When will the new domain extensions be available?The timing of activation of new domain extensions is dependent on the ICANN application and approval process. Currently, the first new TLDs are expected from ICANN in February 2014.
6. Why should I pre-reserve my preferred domains now?New domain reservation works on a 'first come, first served' basis. This means that the first person to pre-reserve a particular domain will have the opportunity to register it as soon as its terms and conditions become available. Once you pre-reserve a new top-level domain, we'll keep you informed about all relevant dates to ensure you never miss a deadline. If several prospective buyers are interested in the same domain, 1&1 can add them to a waiting list, giving everyone the best possible chance to register their preferred domain as soon as it is activated.
7. Does domain pre-reservation cost anything?No, pre-reservation is absolutely free. Its only purpose is to keep you up to date with all relevant news and inform you when your chosen domains become available.
8. Can I be absolutely sure that I'll get my preferred domain?Unfortunately, we can't promise that your chosen domain will be registered, although of course we'll do our best! For over 20 years 1&1 has successfully registered domains for millions of customers, and we've been involved in many implementations of new TLDs. Thanks to this experience and excellent relationships with nTLD registrars, we're confident that we can convert the majority of pre-reservations into registrations as soon as the new domains are activated.
9. What will the new domain extensions cost?Exact prices for the new domains are not yet known. Once detailed price information is supplied to 1&1 from the respective nTLD awarding authority, it will of course be communicated to you.
10. Am I obligated to purchase domains I have pre-reserved?No, simply pre-reserving a domain does not obligate you to purchase it. Domain pre-reservation is free, without obligation or risk.Once price information and terms and conditions become available, you will be contacted to confirm whether you wish to proceed and pre-register your chosen domain.
11. What is ICANN and what is its role?The 'Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers' is a California-based, nonprofit organization recognized by most state institutions.ICANN is responsible for a range of policies and technical work relating to the Internet, and cooperates with external parties to develop various projects. It is also directly responsible for the implementation process of the new domain extensions. You can visit the ICANN website to learn more about the organization and its activities.
Currently, it's not possible for 1&1 to make statements regarding the following: prices, terms and conditions, activation time, and the continued introduction of ICANN policies. 1&1 cannot guarantee that all available nTLDs will be included in the 1&1 portfolio. Some domains may be subject to restrictions.

Immediate effects of deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus on nonmotor symptoms in Parkinson's disease
Search Medline for
|June 4, 2012
Objective: To assess the immediate effects of deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN-DBS) on nonmotor symptoms (NMS) in Parkinson's disease (PD).
Background:Immediate effects of STN-DBS on motor functions are well accepted, but similar data on NMS are mainly lacking. However, a few studies reported fluctuations of NMS in conjunction with motor oscillations in advanced PD without STN-DBS.
Methods: 34 PD patients, who received bilateral STN-DBS were examined in medication off state for frequency and severity of 10 NMS (swallowing problems, anxiety, depression, fatigue, excessive sweating, inner restlessness, pain, concentration/attention, dizziness, bladder urgency) using a visual analog scale (VAS) with STN-DBS off and on. Motor assessments were done using UPDRSIII.
Results: Independent of the STN-DBS status, the most frequent NMS was fatigue (85% of patients), followed by problems with concentration/attention (71%) and inner restlessness (53%). The incidence of most NMS were similar in both STN-DBS groups, while only inner restlessness was significantly decreased by STN-DBS. In contrast, the severity of all NMS except excessive sweating, pain and dizziness were significantly improved by STN-DBS, but only a small proportion of patients (3–24% of patients depending on the NMS) showed relevant improvement (> 10% on VAS). There were no correlations of severity improvements of NMS with motor improvement, demographic data and medication.
Conclusions: STN-DBS does not have major immediate effects on the incidence of NMS, but improves most NMS, particularly psychiatric symptoms such as depression, anxiety and fatigue in a subset of patients. There is no indication that STN-DBS worsens NMS.

Beaumont/Port Arthur
Award-winning author and Lamar University professor Jim Sanderson has released his eighth novel, Hill Country Property, the prequel to his riveting murder mystery Nothing to Lose, which follows the Beaumont adventures of a failed lawyer turned PI, Roger Jackson, who finds himself entangled in a murder investigation when police discov
Lamar University professor, and award-winning author Dr. Jim Sanderson has released Nothing to Lose, a work that includes a setting close to home. Sanderson's latest novel is set in Beaumont and features a fictional bar off of Tram Road — a favorite hangout place for the main character, Roger Jackson.
Jim Sanderson, professor and chair of Lamar University's Department of English and Modern Languages, has recently published a new collection of short stories, "Trashy Behavior," through the Lamar University Press.
Sanderson decided to produce the collection after winning the Texas Institute of Letters' Kay Cattarulla Award for Short Fiction in 2012 for the short story, "Bankers."
(Lamar University press release)
The Texas Institute of Letters has honored Jim Sanderson, professor and chair in Lamar University's Department of English and Modern Languages, with the Kay Cattarulla Award for short-story writing.
The institute – considered the most prestigious literary organization in Texas – presented the award Saturday, April 6, at its annual meeting in San Marcos. The award recognizes the best short story written by a Texan or about Texas.
(updated press release)
While we harbor no disrespect for the Wall Street Journal who called us "that scrappy little paper from Southeast Texas," we prefer to think of ourselves as simple seekers of the truth. We're of the opinion that headlines and sound bites never tell the whole story. Our readers demand all the facts, facets and flavors of every story or event. And, they expect to be informed, educated and stirred to action.

Everything you need to know about Secularization
RE: Everything you need to know about Secularization
"But the downside is that modern society has no place anymore for the feeling of community and security of the pre-modern religiously ordered world."
I entirely disagree with this statement. The idea that religion somehow forms a cohesive bonding agent, unique unto itself, is not only absurd, but ungrounded. Take a look at a small town community and tell me if the primary bonding agent there is religiously inspired, or culturally constructed.
"In modernizing Europe church visits en religious experience was indeed decreasing, but if you looked outside of Europe you saw entirely different developments."
It is true that in significant portions of the world, religion is on the rise. Not so in 'modern' countries though. There are unique instances, such as America, and it's bizarre combination of modernity and faith, and yes, it is strongly on the decline, as slow as that is. Or the infiltration of a Muslim populace in the the heart of Europe, and it's adjoining blurring of the polls. But for the larger portion of the world, although possibly possessing modern technology, still has a culture that is decidedly not as far along as others. Need I bring up sharia law?
RE: Everything you need to know about Secularization
feel free to bring up what ever you want but i can bring up several theories that support that ''but the downside is that modern society has no place anymore for the feeling of community and security of the pre-modern religiously ordered world." comment all without religious base they come from a field called communitarisme. that focus on the importance of groups and despise how people are used as a means instead of an end/goal. i can also look that up but then i might side track a bit. for now just try undermining the statement that only the third version holds true. the one that claims religion isnt declining but changing to a different form which it has done before as we both stated in a theoretical exploration which deduces god as insecure and sadistic.
and now your fast tracking a bit to the discussion that the secular model is universal and should be accepted by all countries but i can already tell you this secularization model has strong christian europian roots, so people wont accept it easily. they will see it as a form of imperialisme. but i wont go to much into detail about all this untill after the first of june when i have a lot more free time. when my fate has been sealed.
RE: Everything you need to know about Secularization
At any rate, I would strongly recommend looking into comma usage. ^_^ It'll make the long chapters easier to digest.
I have no doubt that religion never stopped evolving, and it continues to change today. In a hundred years or so I imagine that we will bear witness to religion 4.0 in full force. However, I do think that religion, as a whole, is dieing in modern civilization. There is a reason that it is called the god of the gaps.
In fact, fast-forward three hundred years and I suspect that there will be a serious division amongst humanity, between those that have faith, and those that do not. I also happen to think that there will be a technological, and cultural division between the two as well.

gimme a break i translated that from a philosophical dutch text so it was rough i but i didnt feel like proofreading it. so i put a disclaimer in it so people will know i am not linguistically retarded. and why is it that only you bother to respond to this or my other one. is it because they are too long for the average attention span here to bother reading it, or too difficult to make a reasonable response to. if so i might dumb it down or perhaps take more time to make it more readable but dont hold you breath language isnt my strong suit, the theoretical is.
RE: Everything you need to know about Secularization
Again, I am not trying to be offensive in regards to your usage of English. I can honestly say that what you are doing is quite a feat; and I am impressed. I merely commented upon commas because it would in fact make it slightly easier to digest. On the other hand, I was unaware that you were wholesale transcribing these texts, so I would not in the least expect such dedication to minor details. Don't worry about it.
Why am I one of the only people responding? (shrugs) I can not speak for others, but I see no reason why not to respond to your lengthy posts. I do not think that they need dumbing down in the least, especially not the other one; this one was much more pleasant on the eyes.
On the other hand, I will continue to engage in conversation and debate with you, so long as you continue to post.
RE: Everything you need to know about Secularization
no worries mate i didnt really take offence or anything but fact remains interpuction is my weakest part in languages. mostly because i dont need them to make sense of a text. i dont get people who read like a robot and can only understand a sentence if a comma is there. so dont bother asking about it. i try to keep it legible but i wont go to extreme lenghs because it is to difficult for me to write a sound text interpunction wise. especially long ones, i get to a point that i get sick of reading my own text and start to remember the content in every paragraph. i can recite my motivation letter for my college application by heart by now. and i still intend to change that some more i just dont like it even though my dean says its okay.
finally i am intending to transscribe some more articles to deepen the discussion a bit more rather than just reiterating the same arguments and say i dont agree. but it is just way to much to attempt right now. this is just a small fraction, my final exam is about the relation between science and religion and my textbook is 200 pages long and i have to know it by heart. and it contains a few interesting things to post here.
but for now i wanna see martin responding here the most, secondly unbeliever. cause after all i did write this bit so martin would have some more ammo. he should be happy with this i think and more is to follow in his favor if i get round to it. cause this is just one subject i have like 7 more. time constraints last till june.
RE: Everything you need to know about Secularization
>_< Glad to see my opinion is valued here. Lol ^_^
RE: Everything you need to know about Secularization
its not like i dont value your opinion its just i want a variety of opinions and the hardest pro and contra are martin and unbeliever. so with you somewhere in the middle leaning towards unbeliever it makes a reasonable good sounding board( not sure if it is a word) to bounce theories of off.
oh and off topic what ever happened to the thinkingatheist the editior who founded this site is he still around.

I would respond but not enough comma usage!
The founder is easy to get a hold of, I emailed him a number of times when the site was down and he respond right away all times.
Just kidding with the comma usage, step away from the keyboard!

Happy Thanksgiving, Internet! Most of you are probably already on your way, over the river and through the wood, to Grandma's house or wherever you're eating your turkey this year. It's Thanksgiving Eve as I write this, but in the morning Team Cheung will brave the traffic, the rain, and hours of the Wiggles on our way to my brother's house in Port Angeles, Washington.
Now, some of you may be familiar with the town of Port Angeles. Some of you may be scratching your heads wondering where you've heard the name, others of you are all, "KISS EDWARD FOR ME!" Port Angeles makes a fleeting appearance in some of the Twilight books - this is both a fun little fact with which to tease my brother and the inspiration behind today's Thanksgiving blog post, which no one will read because HELLO IT IS THANKSGIVING. And if you ARE reading this, what are you doing?! Go eat your turkey! (Or maybe you are hiding out from the in-laws? I understand. Stay as long as you like.)
So anyway. I may be eating my Thanksgiving in Port Angeles this year, but that is the ONLY Twilighty thing about my holiday. And now may I present a few other reasons to be thankful?
1. I will not be recovering from the most violent, revolting birth in the history of births. It may have been a somewhat traumatic experience, what with the speed labor and the no doctor and the pitiful absence of drugs, but my baby exited my body using the designated route, without breaking any bones or requiring a dose of vampire venom to save my life, thankyouverymuch.
2. If I accidentally slice my finger open while carving the turkey, my in-laws will fetch me a band-aid instead of diving for my neck fangs-first.
(Oh wait. The Cullens don't have fangs, do they. They're all BEAUTY and SPARKLE - don't get me started on these "vampires".)
3. My husband won't have a grossly unfair advantage during our post-turkey game of Trivial Pursuit on account of being 104 years old.
4. He also won't be able to hear what I'm thinking when he reaches for his seventh helping of mashed potatoes.
5. There's no fear that I'll trip over the folding chairs or stumble into the cranberry sauce as I am not strapped with Shocking Amounts of Klutziness as a Literary Device - oh, I'm being mean again. SORRY, TWIHARDS. (My husband doesn't have the superhuman speed to save me from klutzing it up anyway.)
6. And perhaps the biggest reason I'm thankful I'm not really in the Twilight Universe: I CAN EAT FOOD ON THANKSGIVING.
Have a good one!
A Happy Thanksgiving shout out to Mighty Maggie blog reader Beth who gave me an idea or two, as well as reminding me of the name Renesmee. Well, maybe she shouldn't get a shout out for that.

Raptors now passing through
As fall kicks into gear, our feathered friends will be changing feeding habits and looking for additional sources of food for energy. The coming of fall also signals birds of prey that it is time for their annual southward migration.
The migration of hawks and falcons in our area begins in late August and ends in early December, although the greatest number of raptors passes through our area in October. Keep your eyes to the sky and you may just see an American kestrel, red-tailed hawk, peregrine falcon, merlin or Cooper's hawk migrating through.
For a close-up view of birds of prey, join Wild Bird Center of Annapolis at one of its fall events. Liz Smith, from Raptor's Eye, will be presenting her owls, hawks and falcons on Saturday, October 5 and Saturday, November 2, 10am to 2pm. Bring your family and your camera to learn about these magnificent birds.

Check Tire Pressure
Frigid weather can often decrease tire pressure. To combat this, drivers should regularly inspect their tires and maintain the manufacturer's recommended tire pressure found on the driver's door jamb. AAA also advises that drivers never decrease tire pressure in order to augment traction on icy roads.

Dover man questioned regarding Maine double murderBy John Quinn
Union Leader Correspondent
July 09. 2014 12:47PM
DOVER – As part of an investigation into a double murder in Maine, a local man is being held on a warrant issued from an unrelated matter in the city.
Maine authorities wanted to speak to two New Hampshire men after Russell Lavoie, 42, of Old Orchard Beach, Maine, and Jeffrey Lude, 37, of Biddeford, both died of multiple gunshot wounds following an incident at 19 Western Ave. in Biddeford, Maine, Sunday evening.
As part of the investigation, police spoke to dozens of people in Biddeford, including four who may have been at the home in or around the time of the shooting. They hoped to speak to two other men, who have both made contact with authorities, according to Stephen McCausland, spokesman for Maine State Police.
On Tuesday, Christopher Dube, 28, of Dover, met with authorities in Saco, Maine, about the matter in Biddeford. Afterwards he was arrested on an "unrelated probation violation charge," according to McCausland.
Dover Police Lt. Brian Dolleman said he has no knowledge of the Maine case, but Dube is wanted in the city for two misdemeanor domestic violence charges involving criminal threatening and simple assault.
"We have warrants for his arrest," Dolleman said, adding he can't provide further details as it remains an active case.
Regardless of the location, Dolleman said if Dube is arrested or interviewed by police, authorities will probably conduct a background check. He added this will led to his eventual return to New Hampshire.
"If he's picked up in Maine, it could be some time before we (in Dover) get our hands on him," Dolleman said.
Nonetheless, Dolleman said Dover Police plan to see the charges though. He added police and the courts are very familiar with the extradition process between the two states.
Dube remains at York County jail in Alfred, Maine
McCausland said investigators intend to speak to Lance Palmer, 44, of Auburn, who was "considered armed and dangerous," Wednesday.
"Lance Palmer also has made contact with police and is expected to be interviewed sometime today. No charges are pending against him," according to a release by Maine State Police.
According to Auburn Police, Palmer has no history with the department and there are no local warrants for his arrest as of Wednesday.
While further details have not been released, Maine authorities continue to investigate the shooting.
"Evidence from the shooting scene will be analyzed at the State Police Crime Lab in Augusta. In addition, dozens of interviews have taken place with neighbors, friends and family of the dead men and those who live in the apartment house, where the shootings took place," according to the release.
Anyone with information is encouraged to contact Maine State Police at (207) 657-3030.

Urology / Surgical at Bigger-Than-Average General Hospital. (Which is miles away and why all my other placements have been at Pinky and Perky, the other smaller general hospitals.)

Oh and it's 5 weeks not 6 so I can get back to earning money to go back to camp. Woo!

World of Darkness
Game Type
New World of Darkness / Mortals Game
Gotham City
Alternate DC Universe Earth using various Batman sources (Comics, Animated Show, Games, Movies, Etc.)
Batman has vanished from the shadows of the city, very early in his career. Bruce Wayne's story has him listed that he was in a "car crash" for his current handicap state. The various crime families and psychopaths that infest the city are starting to notice the disappearance of the Bat now and the city is becoming a cesspool of lawlessness once again. The game is primarily using the movies Batman Begins/The Dark Knight as its main source in the dark reality of the world and the fact that no other superheroes exist. This doesn't mean that some of Bat's villains with superpowers aren't going to show up at some point. I may throw in some known DC characters as their non-super selves around in the news or in Gotham City itself still just for the fun of it.
The Rundown
With the start of the new school year I have lost a few players. Because of that I'm going to reopen up a game ad to see if I can round up another player or two so I can at least get the group back up to a full size for what I wanted. So again I am looking for *2* players to refill now open slots. I will be leaving the ad up with no cut off at this point in time until I can find said replacements. I highly recommend people look over the game forum to get an idea of how the world is set up and what is going on within it.
Now for anyone that didnt see the original ad I will give the the setup once more: All characters will be part of the Gotham City Police Department, as sworn officers. Because of this there are a few minimum requirements to builds, since I do honestly want realistic officers. XP will be handed out to players after I get a base character presented to me and it is approved. I dont give out extra XP before general character creation is complete to have people prove they can make well rounded characters and avoid people from front loading. Not knowing if youre getting 5 or 30 XP forces you to build a workable character out of the gate. If you want to be a detective and cant make the minimum at creation, keep in mind the additional XP I will be giving out. As you can be a newly promoted Detective if you can meet the requirements at that point. Let me know if you will be planning to build for a Detective please. Also keep in mind I will most likely be paring characters as well. It is very likely that the two players I accept will be working together as partners on patrol or as detectives together depending on the applications given.
Allowed Source Books
World of Darkness Core, Dogs of War, Asylum, Armory, Tales from the 13th Precinct, Midnight Roads
If it comes from ANY other source book, I MUST approve it first.

Keeping your SQL objects' naming rules during furious development is hard. New levels of information are added continuously, entities are being splitted, then joined together again, entities are often renamed several times just because you have better name for them etc. For me, renaming is heart of T-SQL refactoring. But whenever you need to rename stored procedure which is referenced by many others, you have no built-in options how to do that. If you are in Visual Studio .NET and have ReSharper installed, it's piece of cake. You just click rename, and it's safely done throughout your solution.
You have one painful "workaround" in T-SQL (as far as I know) – to script all dependencies and perform careful search and replace operation and re-create all affected objects. I personally hated that because when
I was refactoring I wanted to think only about proper new names, not about anything else. But if you're renaming frequent word which is used in not only in object name (but in column names etc.), you're forced to walk through hundreds of lines and thinking If I should rename this or that.
On my current project, we started to use SQL Prompt SSMS add-in many months ago but I discovered it's great value for T-SQL refactoring yesterday. It provides feature which is invaluable for described refactoring scenarios. This features is called "Smart Rename" and provides consistent renaming of SQL object even with renaming it in all dependencies.
Saved me hours this week.
