Legally protected marijuana dispensaries (LMDs) were associated with lower rates of dependence on prescription opioids, and deaths due to opioid overdose, than would have been expected based on prior trends. However, LMDs also were associated with higher rates of recreational marijuana use and increased potency of illegal marijuana.
October 2016 Public health messages can increase public approval for making naloxone legally available to friends and relatives of opioid users to administer if an overdose occurs.
February 2017
New studies show that two novel compounds powerfully suppressed animals' pain responses, while producing little or none of the respiratory depression and liability for misuse and abuse associated with morphine and other typical opioids.
March 2017 In two pilot clinical trials, buprenorphine helped participants reduce their illicit opioid use and injection drug use while awaiting admission to a methadone or buprenorphine treatment program. Researchers minimized the risks for improper use or diversion of the study medication by giving it to trial participants in a computerized, tamper-proof device that dispenses one dose each day.
April 2017
This study analyzed the use of use of nonmedical opioids and heroin use among 68,000 high-school seniors participating in the NIDA-funded Monitoring the Future Study between 2009 and 2013.
August 2017 A single nucleotide polymorphism in the messenger RNA of the µ-opioid receptor gene was associated with patients' responses to methadone treatment for opioid dependence.
August 2017 Patients who initiate time-unlimited opioid-agonist therapy will generate lower average total crime-related costs over the next 6 months than patients who initiate a 21-day detoxification regimen.
October 2017 High-frequency electrical stimulation of neurons deep in the brain can reduce rats' relapse-like behavior and motivation to take heroin. The finding strengthens hope that deep brain stimulation might offer a new treatment alternative for opioid addiction, particularly for patients who have not benefited from other treatments.
April 2018
Among patients with chronic pain, those who reported less ability to tolerate physical or emotional distress were more likely to misuse opioid analgesics.
June 2018
In rats, the combination treatment of oxycodone/nalfurafine had lower levels of abuse liability and produced less respiratory depression than oxycodone alone.

Shortcase is a knowledge sharing platform for creative agencies. It is the answer to two very common questions at project-driven companies. 1. Where is that template, deck, font, photo, etc? 2. Where can I find a relevant case study for this proposal? Shortcase has grown from a fun side project to this profitable company that I love. You can play with a demo here.
Tasked with designing a complete HMI for an electric car, we tackled range anxiety by always relating battery charge to the driver's itinerary and ability to get home. Speed, consumption, regeneration and coasting are all integrated into a single dial.
Lidia is a multi-platform payment service I designed for Telefonica. Consumers can use Lidia to transfer money, retail stores can use it for loyalty programs, and e-commerce shops can use Lidia to accept payments online.
Once the entire service was designed, our client requested a working prototype of the iPhone app, along with additional functionality such as targeted offers and a ticket passbook. I worked closely with the developers to build the final prototype.
I lead and executed a long overdue redesign of the national My Vodafone app. The project went through three fases: Quick Wins, Concept Vision, and a completed app that we designed and launched after a round of usability testing and iteration. Today, the app receives over 8 million visits per month. You can read the case study here.
This ambitious service design project aimed to transform an insurance company into becoming 100% online. Together with the client, we mapped the entire customer journey and identified points of conversion: opportunities to redirect customers from the call-center to the self-service area online. I then designed a responsive web app for filing claims and tracking their progress online. Additionally, I proposed a responsive redesign of the client area.
Today, 25% of Verti's car insurance claims are already being self-serviced online.
For my Master degree project at Wacom, I researched digital music makers and designed a music sketching application for amateurs. Wacom liked my concept so much they asked me to develop a desktop version too. Watch the demo above.

If you want to start a small vegetable garden in your backyard, you should pay attention to this tutorial. In order to get the job done properly, you could plant the vegetables in a greenhouse, to protect them from bad weather, or in a raised garden bed. Irrespective of your choice, you should plan the wooden construction with great attention, from the very beginning.
In this article, we show you basic plans for building a garden bed. As you will see in the step by step tutorial, you just need to cut a few boards, build a simple frame and secure it into place. There are also lots of improvements you could do to your woodworking project, such as covering it with PVC arches and polyethylene film. In this manner, you could transform the raised bed to a mini-greenhouse and grow vegetables even in cold weather. Moreover, you should also build a simple cold frame, to protect the plans from bad weather.
Garden Bed Plans Free
After choosing raised garden bed plans, you have to buy the materials and gather the tools. The construction of the raised garden bed starts with assembling the wooden frame. Therefore, use 2×6 boards and 4×4 posts. As you can notice in the image, you need to attach the slats to the posts and lock them together with lag screws.
Don't forget to drill pilot holes trough the slats, to prevent the wood from splitting. Align the board with great attention, as there should be no gaps between the wooden components.
After assembling the components together and locking them tightly with screws, you should secure the frame into place. Choose a proper location for the garden bed (it has to get enough light, otherwise the plants won't develop properly).
Dig 12″ deep holes in the ground and fit the frame into place. The posts should fit properly inside the holes and the frame should be perfectly level. Fill the holes with soil and compact it properly.
Afterwards, you could install landscaping fabric inside the frame, in order to protect the components from decay and to keep the weeds away from your plants. Fill the raised bed with soil and plant vegetables.
If you want to seat while taking care of the plants, you could attach nice 2×4 trims to the top edges of the raised bed. Align the trims into place and secure them into place with 2 1/2″ galvanized screws. Don't forget to countersink the head of the screws and to fill the holes with wood putty.

How to Send Email Using Telnet
Two Parts:Connecting to the Mail Server with TelnetSending Your MessageCommunity Q&A
Software like Thunderbird and Outlook make sending e-mail seem like magic. Well, until your e-mail never arrives at its destination. How can you find out what really happens when you click "Send?" One option is to send a test message from your e-mail provider's outbound server with telnet, a tiny application that came with your computer. You may catch an error message that your e-mail software didn't.
Part 1
Connecting to the Mail Server with Telnet
1Get telnet. If you're using MacOS or Windows XP, your version of telnet is ready to use. If you have Windows Vista, 2008 server, 7, 8.1 or 10, you'll need to enable telnet before you can use it.
- Windows Vista, 2008 server, 7 and 8.1: Click on the Start Menu and then select Control Panel. Click Programs, and select "Turn Windows features on or off." This will bring up a list of Windows Features. Scroll down until you see "Telnet Client," and put a check in that box. Click "OK." [1]
- Windows 10: Right-click the Start menu and select Programs and Features. Click "Turn Windows features on or off" in the left menu. In the list that pops up, put a check in the box next to "Telnet client" and click "OK."
2Open a terminal window. This is a little different between Windows and Mac.
- Any version of Windows: Press ⊞ Win+R , type
cmd, then press ↵ Enter.
- Mac: In Finder, select "Applications," then "Utilities." Double-click the "Terminal" icon. [2] You can also access Terminal by typing it into Launchpad and clicking it.
- Any version of Windows: Press ⊞ Win+R , type
3Open a telnet connection. Type
telnet mail.server.com 25where "mail.server.com" is the name of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) server of your email provider (such as smtp-server.austin.rr.com) and 25 is the port number used by the SMTP service.
- You should receive a reply like "220 mail.server.com."
- Port 25 is the port for most mail servers, but some network administrators move SMTP to a different port, like 465 (a secure port) or 587 (for Microsoft Outlook users) [3]. Ask your administrator (or check your account information) for the correct port.
- If you receive an error message, such as "Cannot connect to host on port 25," and you are sure that port 25 is the correct port, the mail server is likely experiencing an issue.
Part 2
Sending Your Message
1Greet the server. The rest of the steps are the same no matter which operating system you're using. Type
HELO yourdomain.comwhere yourdomain.com is the domain name from which you send e-mail. Note that there is only one L in HELO. Press ↵ Enter.
- You should receive a reply like "250 mail.server.com Hello yourdomain.com pleased to meet you."
- If you receive no response or an error message, try
EHLOinstead of
HELO. Some servers prefer one to the other.
2Enter the sender "header" information. Type
mail from: firstname.lastname@example.com, using your own e-mail address. Make sure there is a space after the
mail from:. Press ↵ Enter.
- You should receive message that says something similar to "250 Sender OK."
- If you see an error, double-check that you're using an e-mail address with the same domain as the server. Your server may not allow you to send a message with your yahoo.com address, for example.
3Enter the e-mail address of the recipient. Type
rcpt to: firstname.lastname@example.com, where the e-mail address is that of your actual recipient. Press ↵ Enter.
- You should see a message that says something along the lines of "250 OK – MAIL FROM email@example.com ".
- If you receive an error, the e-mail address you are trying to send a message to may be blocked.
4Compose your message. You'll need to enter a few commands to format and send the message.
- Type
dataand press ↵ Enter.
- On the next line, type
subject: testand press ↵ Enter twice. Replace "test" with your desired subject.
- Type your message. When you're done, press ↵ Enter.
- Type a single . to end the message, then press ↵ Enter. You should see a message that confirms your message was accepted or queued. This message varies across servers.
- If you see any sort of error message, write it down and contact your e-mail provider.
- Type
quitto exit telnet. Press ↵ Enter.

How do I find the commands to send an email using SMTP with the Telnet console?
Quick Summary
You can both check your server's responsiveness and send an email to a recipient through your computer's Telnet, which is a command line-only feature. Start by opening Command Prompt (Windows) or Terminal (Mac), then type in telnet and press ↵ Enter. You can then enter the command to open the Telnet connection; if the connection is responsive, you'll be able to send an email through Telnet by entering the necessary commands one at a time.
- The same telnet commands work with any telnet software, even on Linux.
- Some e-mail clients will filter mail sent in this manner to a user's spam mailbox. If you're using this method to test your account, make sure you check the destination user's spam folder for the test message.
- Some mail services (such as Hotmail) don't allow users to send e-mail via telnet.
- You can also check your mail with telnet. See How to Check Email with Telnet
- Using this method to send harassing or illegal messages could easily catch up with you. System administrators closely monitor their outbound mail servers.
Things You'll Need
- Telnet client
- The address of a mail server capable of relaying mails
- Valid email address

Kevin Walsh has stepped down as manager of the Sligo senior footballers after five seasons in charge.
The Galway native made his decision following Sligo's 0-15 to 0-08 defeat against Derry in Round 1 of the Football Qualifiers on Sunday evening.
While in charge of the Yeats County, the two-time All-Ireland winner presided over successive promotions in the Allianz League and appearances in two Connacht finals.
After defeat against London in this year's Connacht Championship, Walsh came in for much criticism on RTÉ's Sunday Game from former player Eamonn O'Hara.
The latter called on Walsh to step down. However, the Sligo County Board came out in support of the manager and he remained in place until their interest in the 2013 Championship came to an end against Derry.

Special Farmland Assessment in Oregon
This week the Oregon Department of Revenue has issued two information circulars regarding the assessment of farmland.
- Taxpayers can qualify for special farm-use assessment for land in an exclusive farm-use (EFU) zone and used primarily to make a profit in farming (to determine the definition of farm use, see Or. Rev. Stat. 308A.056). The qualification of farmland for special assessment is determined as of January 1. Farmland will be disqualified from this special assessment if it is removed from an exclusive farm-use zone, is no longer used as farmland, or receives approval for a nonfarm dwelling or parcel.
Link to the information circular: http://www.oregon.gov/dor/PTD/docs/assessment-farmland-zone_303-644.pdf
- If land is not in an EFU zone but is used as farmland, it may receive the same special assessment. An application must be filed with the county assessor by April 1 of the first year the taxpayer seeks to receive the special assessment. The land must be used exclusively for farm use, both currently and for the past two previous years, and it must meet the following income requirements for three out of five previous years:
- 0-6.5 acres: gross income=at least $650.
- 6.6-29 acres: gross income=at least $100 multiplied by the number of acres.
- 30+ acres: gross income=at least $3,000

9th October 2018 - Sorry, you now need to request a free file download password to access Delphi components.
Magenta Systems Internet Packet Monitoring Components are a set of Delphi components designed to capture and monitor internet packets using either raw sockets or the WinPcap device driver. Hardware permitting, ethernet packets may be captured and interpreted, and statistics maintained about the traffic. Uses of packet monitoring include totalling internet traffic by IP address and service, monitoring external or internal IP addresses and services accessed, network diagnostics, and many other applications. The component includes two demonstration applications, one that displays raw packets, the other that totals internet traffic. The components include various filters to reduce the number of packets that need to be processed, by allowing specific IP addresses to be ignored, LAN mask to ignore local traffic, and ignore non-IP traffic such as ARP.
The components capture packets using two different techniques, with
differing benefits and features:
Component Overview
This component is used to accumulate internet traffic statistics. It is
the basis of the Traffic Monitor demo application. Use is very simple,
just call the Add method from onPacketEvent. The component checks for
unique remote IP addresses and ports (ie services), and totals traffic
for them in TTrafficInfo. The UpdateService method may be called to
update TServiceInfo records which consolidate traffic for any IP into
service. The component automatically reverse looks-up IP address into
29th October 2005 - 1.1 - baseline
8th August 2008 - 1.2 - updated to support ICS V6 and V7, and Delphi 2009 and later. When stopping capture ignore any buffered data so it stops faster. Tested with WinPCap 4.0.1 which is now included
13th August 2010 - 1.3 - fixed various cast warnings with Delphi 2009 and
later tested with WinPCap 4.1.2 which is included
Compatible with Delphi7/2006/2007/2009/2010/XE/XE2/XE3, tested with Windows XP, 2003, Vista, 2008, 7, 8 and 2012.

(PhysOrg.com) -- A web browser that can understand technical terms in life sciences and automatically find additional resources and services has been developed by European researchers. It could lead to a new generation of intelligent search engines.
The life sciences community has built numerous databases - such as for gene sequencing and information about diseases - that are available to researchers as 'grid' services.
"Grid computing is essentially about building virtual organisations that are independent of the physical location where they reside," says Michael Schroeder of Technische Universität Dresden.
The problem is how to link those services to other scientific information found on the web. Schroeder is coordinator of the EU-funded Sealife project which has created a 'semantic grid browser' to make grid services for the life sciences much more accessible.
"We have the web on the one hand and then we have grid computing, with its many services, on the other," he says. A semantic grid browser seamlessly integrates them.
"It tries to understand what it finds on web pages, interprets this content and then links it, on the fly, to services that might be useful to the user."
A matter of semantics
The key to the Sealife browser is a 'semantic hyperlink' that shows up on the page to direct users to relevant services. The link is not put there by the website but by the browser itself.
How does it do that?
First, the browser needs to understand the content of the page and identify terms which could be linked to grid services. An example tested in the Sealife project is the naming of genes. Each human gene has an average of 5.5 names, Schroeder points out, but if it can be identified correctly, a link can be made to a wealth of information about that gene.
The browser must also be able to handle ambiguity. "If I see 'Jaguar' on a web page, what is it? Is it an animal? Is it a car? Is it the Mac operating system?" Sealife uses specialised algorithms to work out the context from other words on the page and correctly interpret the meaning.
It is still not an exact science, though. The Sealife team entered their algorithm in an international competition with 50 others to identify names of genes. They won, with an 81% success rate, though Schroeder says they have now got that up to 87%.
Background knowledge
The second challenge is the background knowledge that allows the browser to make sense of the identified terms. Such knowledge is formally known as an 'ontology', a systematic hierarchy of concepts and their relation to one another. Biology, with its extensive taxonomies, is an ideal field for semantic grid browsing.
"All these efforts of building hierarchical classification systems have been at the core of biology for centuries," says Schroeder. "Biologists are used to it and there are many efforts to make information exchangeable."
But outside the life sciences such systematic classification is not so well developed, and the Sealife project has created editors to build ontologies from published literature in any specific field of interest.
"We developed algorithms that grind through this data, identify the key concepts and then the ontology editor offers these concepts to you," Schroeder explains. "If you agree, it then searches the web to find things that look like definitions. This whole process of building this background knowledge cannot be fully automated but you can ease the pain of doing this quite significantly."
Different varieties of the Sealife browser build on work by partners in Edinburgh, Manchester, London and Sophia-Antipolis, as well as in Dresden. They have been tested in three scenarios: evidence-based medicine, mining of scientific and patent literature, and in molecular biology. In each case, the focus has been on infectious diseases.
Browser that understands everything?
So successful has the project been that TU Dresden has spun-off a new company, Transinsight, to exploit work done in Sealife. The company has sold semantic browsers to such major customers as BASF and Unilever and runs the GoPubMed search engine, which is linked to the respected PubMed archive of biomedical literature.
But there is no reason why a semantic browser should be confined to specialised academic areas. Could we have a browser that understands everything? Schroeder thinks that is not as far-fetched as it may seem. "The vision is to include every domain," he says. "For example, if we were able to extract and formalise the knowledge in Wikipedia we would have this general background knowledge that covers all areas."
Many researchers look forward to a next-generation search engine that can understand what the user is looking for and return much more relevant results than today's engines can. "This will involve integrating information," says Schroeder, "because very often answers to questions are not provided in one document as a single statement that I can pick up by keywords.
"In the future, we will need background knowledge and this is at the core of Sealife. If we build semantic into search, and make it scaleable, then you will have the next-generation search engine."

I bought a pack of cards & envelopes from Joann's but you could do postcard style and cut the card yourself (reducing cost). We had poster paint so I used that and watered it down a little which makes a better flicking/spraying action. The heart was cut free hand from another piece of card. I ended up using a couple as they got harder to get off the more painty they got.
Using a little spray adhesive stick on the heart and flick away!
We found just bending the card levered up the heart enough to peel it off put it onto the next one.
Now onto writing those names....

WILMINGTON, NC (WECT) - Search warrants have not yet been filed in the case against a head instructor at an after school program.
Wednesday afternoon, detectives from the New Hanover County Sheriff's Office and the Wilmington Police Department arrested 61-year-old John David Maisenhelder for taking indecent liberties with minors.
"There's a lot of conduct that falls into this category of indecent liberties such as someone exposing themselves, touching them inappropriately, things that don't go into the area of forceable rape or sexual offense," said Thom Goolsby.
Maisenhelder is the owner and head instructor at Creative After School Training (C.A.S.T.) according to the school. According to their website, Maisenhelder is a 6th degree black belt with over 30 years of experience, and has been a Baptist Pastor for over 15 years.
He is facing charges of three counts of taking indecent liberties with three different children. According to the arrest warrants, the alleged sex crimes happened in April and in June.
WECT has learned the charges he's been arrested for involve sexual gratification and contact with children under the ages of 16.
Officials say the punishment could be severe if the allegations are proven because of Maisenhelder's job instructing children.
"Someone who violates a position of trust and confidence and gains access to children and then abuses them can be punished more harshly than someone who didn't have that position when sentencing comes if it does," said District Attorney Ben David.
David said his office is working with the Wilmington Police Department and the New Hanover County Sheriff's Office to get witness statements and investigate physical evidence.
"Nothings more important than protecting our children and these allegations have to be taken seriously we're taking them very seriously," said David. "If there's people who have information they don't need to be talking about it in the neighborhoods or out on the streets. They need to tell investigators and we will be happy to follow up."
If there are any parents of previous program enrollment who have concerns regarding this investigation they are asked to contact New Hanover County Detectives at (910) 798-4260.
Maisenhelder's attorney released this statement late Thursday afternoon:
I represent John Maisenhelder in regards to the charges filed yesterday in New Hanover County. The purpose of my email is to remind you that in ANY investigation, it is important that members of the media, who report on mere allegations against innocent persons, respect the rights of all parties involved, by not allowing an investigation to become a witch hunt. Presently, John, his wife, his daughter, family and many friends are shocked over the allegations of the last 24 hours. They have fully cooperated with the authorities, and respect the investigative process, while also - unequivocally - asserting John's innocence. I, and the family, have received overwhelming support from a multitude of John's friends and supporters in this community and thank them all for their continued help and support during this difficult time. As the law allows, further comments may be forthcoming.

Wilmington police also released a statement Thursday afternoon. This is an excerpt from that news release:
Subsequent to the arrest, detectives executed search warrants at CAST, located at 4039 Masonboro Loop Road, and the residence of Mr. Maisenhelder, located at 4741 Wedgefield Court.
With the assistance of the New Hanover County District Attorney's office calls were made to the parents of forty-two kids who are currently enrolled in programs offered by CAST. These calls served as the initial parent notification and are now being expanded to include the students of previous enrollment.
Maisenhelder was being held in the New Hanover County Detention Facility under a $1,000,000 secured bond. After a court appearance Thursday, that bond was cut in half. If he makes bond, authorities say he will be under electronic house arrest.
Maisenhelder is expected to have a court hearing Wednesday afternoon in the New Hanover County Courthouse.

Brazilian midfielder Fred will leave MLS club DC United to sign with A-League outfit Melbourne Heart.
The 31-year old will remain in Washington until the international transfer window opens in July but will then head back to Australia to take up a two-year deal with the second-year club.
Former Philadelphia Union midfielder Fred, who is already well known in the A-League after his brilliant performances for the Melbourne Victory in the 2006/07 season, was given permission by DC to negotiate with other clubs and he will leave the RFK Stadium with their blessing says general manager Dave Kasper.
"When we re-acquired Fred earlier this year, we agreed in principle that we would let him go if he had an opportunity to sign abroad for a better contract," said Kasper.
"Fred has been nothing but a professional throughout his time at DC United and we have granted his request. The move will also free up significant salary as we look to improve our team during the upcoming transfer window.
"We thank Fred for his contributions to DC United and we wish him the best of luck."

Diary of a Fetish Porn Star – Maxine X
Blog #1 – Introduction
Adult Performer, Owner of her own Adult Store & Official CalExotics Sexpert (Adult Toy Blogger)
Hi, I'm Maxine X I am now an Official CalExotics Sexpert! I will be reviewing Adult Toys & Blogging about them as well as all my other fun sexy things to talk about!
Let me tell you a little about myself. I have been an adult performer & fetish model for the last 10 years. I was in the hit TV show, "Webdreams" Season 3. My husband and I own our own Adult Production Company, "Maxine X Productions, Inc.". We also have our own Adult Toy Line, "Maxine X Rox" and I have been a performer with top porn companies such as Brazzers, Elegant Angel, Reality Kings and more.
Being in the Adult Industry and owning and owning a boutique, (Maxine's Adult Playground located at 323 Ouellette Av., Windsor, Canada) many people ask me a lot of the same questions.
Now, don't worry, feel bad or embarrassed, I'm letting you know that you are not alone. I love to answer people's questions and to educate where I can. If I don't know the answer I will try to find out. That is one of the main reasons I have started this blog, to help others and encourage more people to learn about sex, health, adult toys, relationships and more!
I must confess, I rely quite a bit on my own experiences, observations and research. However, I do have a secret weapon, my husband Scott Rhodes, he is the "real" Sexpert. He graduated from the University of Toronto where he studied Human Sexuality, Psychology and more. His academic
knowledge and life experience has taught me so much about myself, life and sex. Although he prefers to be Pornographer and adult performer, I know if I have a real question he will be the one to assist me.
So, I hope you enjoy Maxine's Adult Playground and Blog and that you are left with a positive outlook on sex and learn more about yourself and your partner.
"Get Your Sexy On!"

Ground zero, for most of today's enthusiasts, is 1948, the year British Railways was created from, the war time ashes, of the 'Big Four'. Battered by the blitz and, the threat of bankruptcy hanging in the air, the creation of British Railways was hardly cause for unbridled joy. Yes, the railways were now publicly owned, but shareholders were still being paid, and Victorian infrastructure, locomotives, and rolling stock were all in daily use.
There were some bright spots, fresh paint and new liveries and the Peppercorn A1s were rolling out of Darlington and Doncaster works. The A1s were regular visitors to Leeds, where I grew up, and I remember riding behind them on journeys to Peterborough, change for Lowestoft, and a fortnight at the seaside. Later, in the 1950s, 37B Copley Hill, had an allocation of 10, in 1955 – Nos. 60117 – 60120, 60122, 60131, 33, 34, 39, and 60141, I rode behind many of them on spotting trips to Doncaster. Travel there and back on a platform ticket, spend all day at 'Donny', beside the ECML .and catch the 'plant stream' and then the train back to Leeds Central Station and a bus back home. And no one was any he wiser!
The locomotive in the photo, the new build A1 No.60163 Tornado, is pictured at Selside with the first of the Plandampf services on the S&C on Saint Valentine's Day.
If you have enjoyed my blogs – I have written a book about my 60 years involvement with railways, from trainspotter, via steam age footplateman, to railway author and photographer, this is a link to it:

Final Fantasy XIII appears to be off to a great start -- at least amongst retailers. Square Enix announced today that worldwide shipments of the game have reached the five million mark thanks to a big boost from an initial shipment of three million units in North America and Europe.
Square Enix's numbers tell us that Japan saw shipments of two million units since the game was released there on December 17 as a PlayStation 3 exclusive. The game disappeared form the weekly sales charts long ago, but appeared to be slowly inching (or maybe millimetering) towards the two million mark at last sighting.
The five million figure is shipped and not sold. For actual slaes figures in North America, we'll have to wait for the monthly NPD results.
Independent sales data should also give us a first sign of how the Xbox 360 version is doing compared to the PS3 version. Square Enix did not provide shipment breakdowns.
Square Enix CEO Yoichi Wada, who was in San Francisco for the launch, previously said in a Reuters interview that he hopes to see FFXIII's worldwide shipments top FFXII. This would mean at least six million units.
The Final Fantasy series as a whole has shipped over 96 million units worldwide, Square Enix also said today.

Eight new designs were chosen by the Public Art Committee from 46 submissions collected this winter from local artists.
The new banners will be installed this spring and remain until the snow starts to fall. The banners should last several years.

Not sure what's up with Silicon Valley churning out the love these days but here's Mozilla's efforts:
This September, Mozilla is challenging users to earn their Internet merit badges by donating their time and talents to public benefit institutions, non-profits, and those in need.
According to an email we received from Mozilla, "Everyone should have the opportunity to know how to use the Internet, have easy access to it, and have a good experience when they're online. This new initiative is looking for people with a talent for writing, designing, programming, developing, or all-around technical know-how. Internet skills, no matter how novice or advanced, can change people's lives and make the Web better for everyone." Mozilla Service Week will take place from September 14-21, 2009.
Goals of the initiative include teaching the elderly how to user the Internet, helping non-profits use the social web and update their databases, installing wireless networks at schools, and working in libraries and community computer centers.

Re: Serious Q about circumsizion..
and its a lot more taken away in circing a boy than a girl, girls vaginas still make lube, and unless youre also talking take away the labia completely, the clitoris still has *some* covering...etc, ya know? if you circ a boy, no more lube from the outside, onlly whatever their glands produce inside, no skin to rub the inside of a woman (well or man, obviously if theyre gay or bi ) and they can have scars and it be too tight and painful to be erect, and things... girls *can* still have sex and function perfectly fine if theyve only had what people equate to being the "same" as circing a girl as a boy, when in reality it isnt at ALL.
if they have other things removed, like labia, etc then yeah it acn be incredibly painful as well, but thats not whats generally refered to as circing a girl/woman...

Re: Serious Q about circumsizion..
do they look the same as circ penis's when erect? Not exactly. But in dim lighting one probably couldn't tell at first.
Does having sex with a circ man the same as a uncirc one?
It is definitely different to me. Much smoother with an intact man than who who is circed.
Also, I have heard some people say they smell differently and alot of people dont like dealing with that, is this true?
Not in my experience. Both types smell bad after a long sweaty day with no shower. Both smell fine to me when washed. But it is like with women. They may have a smell even when clean and healthy but I find it arousing rather than unpleasant.
Also, if you know any uncirc men, do they regret not being circ and wish they were?
Absolutely not. DH & all of his family is intact and they are horrified at the idea of circumcision. Also, none of them have ever had any sort of problem (like infection) with their foreskin whatsoever.
DH and I have discussed this quite a bit and he was adamant that if I wanted to circ a son that we would NEVER be having any children.
But I was against circing anyway- partly because it is against my religion but also for all the other reasons - possibility of interfering with breastfeeding, decreased sexual function, surgical risks, etc.

Re: Serious Q about circumsizion..
1. What kind of formula is he on? *He is not on any formula he is breastfeeding* followed by horrified looks
2. Did he get circumcised yet? *He is NOT being circumcised* followed by dirty looks and lectures about hygeine and how important it is to circ.
It still amazes me why family members/people in general think intimate details of OUR children are their business, unless of course said child is in some kind od danger, which we all know is far, far from the case

Re: Serious Q about circumsizion..
My dh was with our son when he was circed and it was a quick and (as far as we could tell) painless procedure.
However, we will not be circing any sons in the future. We have done a lot of research and just feel that it's not necessary. As previous posters pointed out, the American Academy of Pediatrics doesn't even recommend it any more and I believe they are the ones who listed it on the Top 10 Useless Procedures. Or maybe that was another medical organization? Please correct me if wrong.
The "locker room" effect is just not something that I"m worried about. Men and boys do not look at each other in the locker room or at the urinals!! Even if they caught a glimpse they sure as heck wouldn't be letting anyone else know!! LOL
My dh and ds are both circed. The main reason we decided to circ was so they would "be the same". Now I don't think that's a very good reason for us. If my sons ask my why I circed one and not the other I'll tell them the same thing I'll tell them about (sadly) many of my parenting choices "when you know better you do better" and leave it at that. I feel like we made a mistake in circing our firstborn. But that doesn't mean I have to repeat the procedure to future boys in order to make myself or anyone else feel better about our past choice!

Re: Serious Q about circumsizion..
I really want to give you best wishes with your decision. Here's a little about what happened with us...
I never researched the pros/cons or even just the thought of not doing it when I was pregnant w/ my oldest son. It was done atbirth just b/c that's how things were done. But, while pegnant w/ my youngest, I wasn't sure what to do. DH and I still didn't have a clear answer on it when Maddox was born. But Maddox ended up being naturally circ'ed - meaning the foreskin wa already pushed back and not attached at the end. But he also had a hypospadias - his urethra was on the bottom side of his penis where the foreskin should have been on that side....make sense? Anyway, after reconstructive surgery when he was 6 months old, he looks great and like he was circ'ed...since he had to have surgery anyway, what could I do?
My nephew wasn't circ'ed at birth either due to his urethra being slightly off-center...it really wasn't, that was just what the hospita told my SIL. They had him circ'ed when he was 7 months old -he had to be put under and stitched. That's one of the pros to doing it at birth, well actually two of the pros.
I have seen both circ'ed and uncirc'ed fully grown men. IMO, it's never pretty to look at

Re: Serious Q about circumsizion..
I am very much against circumcision, for both males and females.
I have never been w/ a intact man so I don't know the answer to most of your questions. I have heard erect penises look the same. I have heard (mostly on message boards) of some intact men wishing their were circed, but they were Americans who were either teased or had lots of infections to due improper and constant retraction.
I would definitely watch the Penn & Teller shows (I have never watched the other videoes myself). I actually cried during some of the scenes. They made me physically ill, I knew I wasn't going to circ before watching them, but they definitely cemented my opinion.
I say wait. He doesn't need it done right away. Having a natural son is so easy, there is absolutely nothing special to do (except warn all medical personnel NOT to retract him). If he decides he wants it done when he is 18 then he can.

Re: Serious Q about circumsizion..
Not to state the obvious here, but you probably aren't going to get a lot of reasons to circ or moms who have researched it, done it, and happy with the decision on a board like this. Most moms here are well informed and pretty "cruncy" APers and the like. Those types of people don't generally circ. (I hope I am not offending anyone!! So not intended that way). You might get less one sided answers by posting on a pregnancy site, KWIM? Certain types of parents are going to do things basically the same....and moms who CD tend to be one type of parent.
Both my boys are circ'd. I have done all the research (except NOT watching the videos, since that, to me seems like anti circ propaganda) and know the pros and cons. I made sure my sons were anesthetized, and I don't regret my decision. I don't think my sons are traumatized from it, and for my second, it didn't even make him stop nursing for any time at all. If I ever have another boy, I will circ him as well. It wasn't at all hard to care for or deal with in any way. It was actually less of a pain to deal with than their umbilical cords. Of course, that is only my experience, and I am sure people have bad experiences as well.
I think the most important thing you can do is make the decision you won't later regret. I cried when they took my first to do his circ...bawled...because I knew it was an unneccesary procedure that he would have been perfectly ok without, and in pain from having. Still, I knew it was the right decision for us, which is why I made it before I was emotional and PP hormonal, and I have no regrets whatsoever. You just have to do what is right for you and yours, and don't look back.
Anyway, the point of my post is that I don't think you will get many moms here that feel this way about circing, but there are plenty out there.
Disclaimer** Please I am not trying to offend anyone. I totally respect this decision as a personal one. I was just trying to make the point that like minded individuals do things alike, and most of the moms who CD are pretty crunchy and do things like no circs, no vacs, cd, BF, etc....not saying those things are bad, just saying there isn't going to be much diversity here.

Re: Serious Q about circumsizion..
I wondered about the same things when I found out we were having a boy. I read all the stuff. In the end we decided to circ, and I don't regret my decision. I've heard about the videos on the internet, but I will tell you it is NOT always like that. My husband and my dad both were present and my son didn't even flinch. No crying, nothing. He only fussed when they restrained his legs! I was so relieved to hear that. They brought him back to me a few minutes later and he was completely fine!
I don't know why it seems awful for some babies and painless for others. I have no clue. I also completely understand why people would choose not to, and I respect that completely. But I also think we made the right choice for our son.

Re: Serious Q about circumsizion..
At one time I thought circ'ing was just the norm and never questioned it. My first was a girl, the issue never even came up - that was 9 yrs ago. Dd2 was born 2.5 yrs ago and we didn't know what we were having. Dh was pro-circ simply because he'd been circ'ed. I didn't want a boy circ'ed simply because I thought his body should equal his choice.
Over the last 2.5 yrs I did more research... learned the sensitivity of the foreskin, the procedure involved. Read stories of moms who regretted circ'ing their sons. And I became more sure that no boy I had would be circ'ed. I did have a bit of an uphill battle with dh, but all it took was showing him the circ tray and just describing what's done during a circ and he got on board with not circ'ing.
Honestly, I think the biggest deciding factor for me was that I honestly believe it should be his choice. Is it painful for a man to be circ'ed? Yes! So why should a newborn baby be put through such a painful procedure? Not a nice welcome to the world IMO.
Also, did you know that hospitals sell foreskin and that pharmaceutical companies have numerous uses for foreskin? One circumcision yields enough cells that will grow to the size of a football field. The HPV vax if any of you have heard of it was developed with foreskin from circumcised babies.
I was nervous about caring for ds, but it hasn't been hard at all. In fact I think a circ'ed penis is harder in the beginning and then after that they're probably the same in terms of regular care. On the other hand, a circ'ed penis carries the risks of complications that sometimes require further surgery on the penis or the circumsion being repeated - or sometimes too much foreskin is taken off and a man has problems for life.
I know there are some men who are very upset about having been circumsized as babies and carry a good deal of resentment about it. And men who go through the expensive and painful procedure of foreskin restoration to feel "whole" again.
In terms of looks, I've read posts of moms complaining that their circ'ed son doesn't look circ'ed because a loose circumcision was done. Really, no penis is going to look exactly alike anyways - and how many boys do you think really compare penises in the locker room? Especially in the homophobic culture we live in?
Anyways, that's my . Obviously I am very anti-circ and think it's very cruel to put a newborn through a needless incredibly painful cosmetic procedure that he doesn't have any input or choice over. Mother nature doesn't make mistakes - why mess with perfection?

Re: Serious Q about circumsizion..
We circumsized our now 3 year old when he was 6 days old. He was a poor feeder in the hospital and the MD recommended waiting till breast feeding was established to get him circumsized. My pediatrician did it and I was there with him the whole time.
We used sweet-ease (glucose) and breast milk to keep him calm. She used lidocaine to numb the area.
If we had another boy he would be circumsized too.
I work in a NICU and we routinely have the boys circumsized before they go home...they do it as an inpatient procedure for the little ones. Personally, I feel that there are many more stressfull things in life that these litle ones go through, and circumsision is one that they do not remember...inasmuch as they do not remember the cranial pressure from delivery from the birth canal.
And I HAVE watched those videos about non-circumsizing...and those are horrific. I have never EVER in all my years in medical worlds seen a physician treat an infant like that. There are now standard protocol for pain management...even inutero--so please know there is pain managment for boys, if that is an issue of concern.
I watched one video wehre the voices appeared tome to be dubbed in...with the father asking questions andt he physician ignoring while he did something awful to the boy. That is not the way I saw my sons' circumsision done.
I think you can watch and read and research, and find cons/pros to every topic...even to *gasp* cloth diapering!
I have also worked with many children with multiple special needs and many of those were not circumsized due to their religious/cultural raising...and their penises did require additional cleaning, even at 12, 13, 14 years of age (these are multiplely handicapped young men requiring maximal assistance for all activities of daily living).
But it's a decision taht I would make if I were you that you can stand behind and stand with your DH. Good luck...

Revolution Egypt: No American Intervention Necessary
It is positively inspiring to see what's happening in Tunisia and Egypt these days. When the Tunisian people successfully ousted their corrupt rulers, the Ben Ali family, I wrote about how this may be just the tip of the iceberg in a new global era of human rights through a series of revolutions brought about by the unprecedented powers of communication available to ordinary people through the internet. Inspired by their success, the Egyptian people are now attempting a revolution of their own and appear to be right on the verge of ousting their own leader, Mubarak.
If this trend continues, there is good reason to be optimistic about humanity's long-term future. The internet contributed enormously to help the people of Tunisia and Egypt get a clearer view of what life was like outside their countries and show them that things could be better. It's what allowed them to read leaked documents confirming that their governments were corrupt, and it's what allowed them to organize their uprisings and get the word out to the rest of the world. If the internet can help to facilitate this much change after only a couple of decades in existence, imagine what it has the potential to do over the course of the next century.
I won't delve into the details of what's happening in Egypt. The Huffington Post has a great live feed of the latest news as it breaks, and this piece by an Egyptian who returned there from America in the midst of the uprising paints a wonderfully vivid picture of the situation on the ground for those who are interested. I only want to make a point that I hope I start hearing more often in the American media:
This should prove once and for all that United States military force is not required to advance the ideals of freedom and democracy elsewhere in the world. When people suffer under corrupt or brutal regimes and those regimes continuously ignore the plight of the people while their abuses of power grow more and more egregious, eventually a tipping point is reached and the people rise up against them. True democracy can only established from the ground up—it can't be imposed by an external force.
When weapons of mass destruction were not found in Iraq, the people responsible for that invasion started pretending that the actual justification was to liberate the Iraqi people, and now they claim that because Saddam Hussein is gone the whole operation can be considered a success. Something similar can be said about Afghanistan—while 9/11 was the initial reason for going in, our rationale for staying there now is to prevent the Afghan people from having to suffer under the brutal rule of the Taliban.
Well, the events in Egypt and Tunisia should blow giant holes straight through these justifications, as one can easily imagine the Iraqi people eventually overthrowing Saddam Hussein themselves, or the Afghan people eventually rising up against the Taliban and achieving for themselves the goal that the United States is supposedly aiming to achieve for them. Both revolutions could conceivably result in far fewer civilian casualties than those we've inflicted, as neither the governments of Iraq or Afghanistan nor their oppressed peoples have F-16s or predator drones.
While we all would love to see the people of the Middle East enjoy the same kinds of freedoms we have, trying to force these ideals on societies that may not be ready for them almost always results in disaster. And more importantly, the regimes that we have set up in these countries are not really any more democratic than those they replaced. They may be less brutal, but they are still corrupt and unresponsive to the needs of the people. We didn't bring real democracy to these people—we merely replaced their old leaders with leaders more willing to play ball with us.
Revolutions that happen organically may not be in the best interests of the United States, but we have to accept that. Indeed, this particular revolution in Egypt is quite the inconvenience for our government today, as Mubarak was one of those leaders willing to play ball. If a new regime takes power, it may not cooperate so easily but it will be far more legitimate.
For a revolution to succeed it must be driven by the will of the people. We may wish that the people of the Middle East would hurry up and demand their basic human rights for the poor, for women, homosexuals, non-Muslims, and every other oppressed group, but rather than try to force these changes through military might we ought to be patient and trust that these changes will happen on their own just as they happened here. The people out in the streets of Egypt today are the younger generation who grew up with the internet and who are well aware of how much better life can be for their fellow citizens. As time goes on this knowledge will become more widespread, more universally accepted, and eventually a tipping point will be reached in each and every society in which the people demand fundamental changes. At least that's what we should hope for.
[If you share my hope for a worldwide transformation over the next century, I hope you'll consider joining Revolution Earth.]

Strasbourg, long acknowledged as one of the loveliest cities in France, enjoys a little-known secret. Few people realize that in 1960 Strasbourg and Boston, in the United States, were declared ``sister cities'' by officials in both countries. This year, the 25th anniversary of the ``twinning'' of the two cities is being celebrated with festivities and visits by their respective mayors.
Ann Collier, president of the Boston-Strasbourg Sister City Association, explained that in 1960 President Dwight David Eisenhower wanted to build better understanding between Americans and peoples of other lands. ``At that time,'' Mrs. Collier said, ``Charles Munch, a native of Strasbourg, was the conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. His brother was the conductor of the Strasbourg Symphony.''
After World War II, there were many servicemen who returned to Boston with French wives. There has always been a warm feeling in Boston toward the French. Mayor John Collins, in March 1960, made a formal proposal linking Boston and Strasbourg. It was called ``Jumelage'' -- or twinning -- and the two cities have continued, through the years, with an exchange of business, cultural, and social activities.
Visitors to Strasbourg will easily understand the comfortable relationship the two cities share. The city of 400,000 is a thriving metropolis yet maintains a warm, cozy atmosphere for enjoying a high quality of life.
Strasbourg, in the province of Alsace, lies peacefully on the banks of the Rhine and Ill Rivers in the northeastern corner of France, just a stone's throw from Germany. In spite of the history of the region, which has seen it seesaw between France and Germany, the people feel passionately French, or as one fourth-generation innkeeper said, ``We are really Alsatian. P^at'e de foie gras was perfected here; the national anthem, the Marsaillaise, was composed here. How can one be more French th an that?''
Most people speak French and German, some speak English, but the language most often heard is Alsatian, a dialect passed from generation to generation. The physical beauty of the region is unending -- the city's winding, narrow streets with half-timbered houses, outdoor caf'es, hidden courtyards, and picturesque squares; in the countryside, the Vosges Mountains entice hikers, skiers, and sightseers with beautiful forests, waterfalls, valleys, and promontories. In La Petite France, the old city wit hin Strasbourg, cars are not allowed, and canals are streets bordered by graceful houses and gardens.
Today Strasbourg is the main university town of eastern France, and its famous students have included Goethe, Metternich, and Napoleon Bonaparte. Its history dates back to the 12th century BC, when the Romans established a military camp called Argentoratum on the Rhine River. After several barbaric invasions devastated the town, it surfaced again and was named Stateburgum, ``town of the roads,'' because of its strategic geographical position.
Dominating the skyline of the city is the magnificent Cathedral of Notre Dame, designed by master craftsmen from France and the Rhineland over four centuries. Completed in 1469, its 469-foot spire made it the highest building in the Christian world until the last century. This is one historic monument that should not be missed. Visitors stand before the world-famous astronomical clock with its ingenious complications and hear a commentary. At 12:30 p.m. each day, the hour is struck by a figure rep resenting death, while the apostles receive the blessing of Christ, and the cock, beating its wings, crows three times in memory of Peter's denial. A sound-and-light show can be seen nightly inside the cathedral.
In the Palais de l'Europe, the handsome, contemporary building housing the Council of Europe, the European Parliament meets one week in every month.
Not only is tourism on the rise in Strasbourg, but the business community is attracting the attention of world-class industries. ``There are three reasons we chose Strasbourg for our first venture in a French province,'' said Hilton International's Paris-based vice-president, P. R. Jaquillard. ``First is the growing economic importance of Strasbourg and of the Alsace region, second is the international character of the town, seat of many European organizations, and last but not least are the many cultural, intellectual, and touristic attractions of Strasbourg and Alsace.''
Sightseeing excursions are pleasant and informative. Boat trips on the Ill River take an hour and 15 minutes and leave several times daily. On open-air mini-trains, a 45-minute tour has commentary in French and German but is still worthwhile as an orientation to the city.
A brochure in English provides information so that one can identify important places (such as Gutenberg Square with its memorial to the inventor of the press for movable type, who completed his great work here from 1434 to 1444). There are wonderful thematic tours such as the ``Ridges Route'' for those who have a head for heights, exploring the passes and ridges atop the highest mountains of the Vosges. There is a ``Flowered Route'' featuring the flowered villages, and an ``Old Castle Route'' with a tou r of medieval ruins and fortresses.
Dining in cozy restaurants facing the canal or perched in a picturesque setting in the woods is the most popular evening activity. Restaurants feature not only haute cuisine but typically Alsatian dishes like choucroute, a popular dish of pork products, accompanied by sauerkraut and potatoes.
A visit to Strasbourg might include a tour of the famous route from Strasbourg to Colmar and Mulhouse. Storybook villages and neat rows of vineyards dot the tranquil countryside. Colmar, a beautiful town near foothills of the southern Vosges, will be much in the news next year when the United States celebrates the 100th anniversary (on July 4, 1986) of the presentation of the Statue of Liberty by France to the US.
The creator of the statue, Fr'ed'eric Auguste Bartholdi, was born in Colmar and devoted nearly 20 years of his life to complete this project, which he wanted to be a gift from the French people to the American people. The Bartholdi museum gives fascinating insight into the development of the statue, with models displayed from its inception to completion. Colmar also boasts the extraordinary Mus'ee Unterlinden, a former convent, where Gr"unewald's famous altarpiece is exhibited.
Practical information
Air France has daily flights to Paris from most US cities. Pan Am and TWA also have flights to Paris from several gateways. Air Inter (domestic Air France) flies from Paris to Strasbourg (about 40 minutes). To drive from Paris to Strasbourg takes between four and five hours.

A new image has revealed a possible HTC tablet, bearing close resemblance to the HTC One. There has been talk of an HTC tablet for quite some time now, so this could well be it. We don't see an HTC logo on the screen though, which is strange since the HTC One and the One Mini have it. We're awaiting the launch of the HTC One Max phablet this month, which could compete directly with the Galaxy Note 3. However, a decent sized HTC tablet with the design of the One will be something to look forward to.
HTC hasn't had a great 2013 so far after poor earnings were reported by the company in Q2. And the only way to change the dismal performance is to bring in more devices catering to the specific needs of the people. If HTC goes ahead and launches a 7 inch tablet in the market, we might see the likes of the LG G Pad 8.3 and the new Nexus 7, taking some serious competition. Pricing will be key, and if HTC goes with premium materials like on the One and the One Mini, the price might not be as attractive as other competitive Android tablets.

DALLAS, TX --Dallas County commissioners have voted 3-2 to join the federal voting rights challenge to Texas' new voter ID law, which requires voters to present photo identification to vote in person.
County Judge Clay Jenkins and commissioners Theresa Daniel and John Wiley Price, all Democrats, voted for the measure. Democrat Elba Garcia and Republican Mike Cantrell voted against joining the suit.
Garcia voiced concerns about the cost, and Cantrell said the county shouldn't use county funds for a partisan fight.
The Justice Department sued Texas in 2011, alleging the law discriminated against minority voters. The ID law wasn't enforced due to conflicts with the U.S. Voting Rights Act. When the U.S. Supreme Court struck down parts of the act earlier this year, the state reinstated the law.
