Well, it is really difficult to find the price of something online in Thailand. The vendors usually don't have online presence in Thailand. If they ever have a website, they are usually poorly designed and lack any online purchase function. But I recently found a website from Hardware House, a reputable Thai computer and accessories vendor. Although they don't sell things online, they have a list of their available products with price list. You can find many Hardware House vendor shops at Panthip Plaza in Bangkok.

Today I officially filed my paperwork to run for re-election as your State Superintendent of Public Instruction. I'm in this race!
Today I officially filed my paperwork to run for re-election as your State Superintendent of Public Instruction. I'm in this race!
This continues a journey I began as a teacher. Teaching is my life's work. I spent years in the classroom teaching science in challenging, low-income communities. I loved working with my students. That's why I've continued to teach community college classes even after I became State Superintendent.
We've made progress. But we have more work to do.
I need you to stand with me. This isn't a fire drill. My opponent is a well-funded former Wall Street investment banker. He's already collecting huge donations from hedge funds and others looking to turn a profit at the expense of our public schools.
Can you help send my opponent and his billionaire friends a message by making a donation of $14 or more right now?
I've always believed people power and the right ideas can and will beat big money in California. We can show them again. That's why I need your help today.
I look forward to working with you on behalf of our students as we continue this journey together.
Best regards,
P.S. I am having a reception on Saturday, March 15, in Contra Costa County. Please purchase a ticket now by clicking here. I'd love to share more details with you in person!

From yuck to yum: ASU's Conditioned Feeding Lab aims to change your plate by changing your palate.
Boiled Brussels sprouts pile on a plate, emitting an acrid funk. Waterlogged cauliflower hulks menacingly. Salmon smells too fishy, churning up stomach acid and memories of seasickness. You can't get up until you clean your plate.
Everyone has these epicurean nightmares, these childhood food phobias dogging palates well into adulthood. At Arizona State University's Conditioned Feeding Lab, a research course for select post-graduate students, three scientists seek to dismantle your distastes and teach you to like – even love – your dietary demons and eat more of the healthy food you fear. They claim they can help you eat less of the junk you love, to boot.
To that end, Dr. Elizabeth Capaldi Phillips, the lab's principal investigator, is shepherding the research of post-doctoral fellow Dr. Devina Bajaj and Ph.D. candidate Lynn Wilkie on the psychology of food – why we love it, hate it, and eat the amount we do. They hope to create a cultural change by combining psychology and nutrition to address health concerns, for both the clinically obese and the average person who wants to live healthier or lose a few pounds. Bajaj dreams of partnering with weight-loss institutes to put their work into life-saving application. Capaldi Phillips would like to see their findings, which have been published in scientific, peer-reviewed journals, implemented in school lunch programs. It all begins with education, they say.
"You can learn to like the foods that you hate – assuming you want to. A lot of people are happy with the foods they hate," Capaldi Phillips says. "People assume that your likes and dislikes are built in, they're genetic, and that's the way it is. Very little is genetic."
Biologically, humans are designed to like sweet and salty and dislike sour and bitter. The evolutionary rationale: Sweet and salty flavors indicate freshness in the wild, while sourness and bitterness accompany spoilage and poisonous plants. These preferences cross cultures and species. People in France and Fiji have the same facial reactions to flavors – lip-smacking smiles for sweetness and salt, sputtering grimaces for sour and bitter – as the rats studied in the lab. Those predilections, and the phenomenon of the "supertaster" (people who taste more intensely due to a higher number of papillae in their taste buds; they make up 25 percent of the world's population), are the only genetic components of eating habits. Everything else is learned.
"Eating is another habit. Every time you eat, you're doing a learning trial and teaching yourself to eat in a certain way," Capaldi Phillips says. "Let's say you eat candy. You're pairing fat with sweet, because that's what candy is. You're learning to like fat."
Training someone to like a certain food – say, those bitter but healthy sprouts – can be achieved by exposure (acceptance comes after 10 exposures and enjoyment after 20) or by two pairing techniques: flavor-flavor and flavor-calorie. The lab employs both in its trials on college students and preschoolers. Boiled veggies served plain usually elicit a negative reaction. When the veggies are topped with a non-nutritive sweetener or dipped in cream cheese, however, the majority of subjects report favorable reactions. Toppings are gradually tapered until subjects enjoy the vegetables unadorned.
Many aversions stem from neophobia, or fear of newness. Infants eat and enjoy almost anything until they hit age two, Capaldi Phillips says. After that, new food is greeted with wariness; many purported aversions are to foods people have never tried. Some aversions stem from trauma – getting sick after eating something, ingesting something spoiled or while experiencing stress, etc. "You can think yourself into an aversion as well. You can do this cognitively; you don't have to actually experience it," she says. Many vegetarians are cognitively averse to meat because of their moral disgust, and anorexics cognitively condition themselves to be fat-averse.
Bajaj studies the factors that affect how much people eat. Using the Delboeuf illusion (see illustration), Bajaj has found that people eat less food when it's cut into many pieces, even if it's the same amount as in a single-piece serving. She observed this in the rat test population and found it was true for humans, too. "It may have something to do with surface area... something cut into pieces might [appear to] occupy more room on the plate."
This illusion can help you eat less in general, but can also help you cut down on unhealthy foods. Breaking a cookie into many pieces or cutting a slice of cake into smaller segments can prevent over-indulging, Bajaj says. "Registered dieticians will tell you, 'Change your diet. Eat less fat,'" Bajaj says. "It's easy to say it, but when you actually have to do it [it's more difficult]. And that's where we come in. We can get people to change."
Hate on the Plate
The most common aversions encountered at Arizona State University's Conditioned Feeding Lab:
Meat – The flesh and blood factors freak out more than vegetarians. It's the No. 1 reported aversion.
Mushrooms– A spongy texture and woodland flavor make fungi a bit too funky for many.
Tomatoes – Grainy, pulpy, fleshy, drippy: A tomato is a texture-freak's worst nightmare.
Bitter things – Veggies, leafy greens, coffee and beer are bitter pills for palates hardwired to prefer sweet things.
Spicy foods – Many people just can't handle the heat, especially if their mothers never ate spicy things while pregnant and nursing.

In a planning condition attached to a planning permission, a "tailpiece" to that condition may on it's face enable development to take place which could be very different in scale and impact from that applied for, assessed or permitted.
It thereby purports to enable a development to be carried out in a way that bypasses any statutory planning process.
In R (Midcounties Co-operative Ltd) v. Wyre Forest DC [2009] outline planning permission was granted for a new class A1 supermarket. The description of development in the planning permission did not specify the floor space permitted, but the application incorporated the specifications of floor space.
Condition 6 of the planning permission granted provided that the food store approved should not exceed the specified maximum "unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Local Planning Authority." The High Court held that the tailpiece to condition 6 was unlawful as it undermined the effect of specifying floor space limits. Worse still the condition could not be severed from the planning permission. The floor space limits were of central importance.
In Hubert v Carmarthenshire County Council [2015] condition 21 to the grant of planning permission was that the wind turbine approved should be 40 metres to the centre of the hub and 67 metres to blade tip, unless given the written approval of the local planning authority.
The High Court ruled that the Midcounties principle applied here, the tailpiece to the condition was bad. The officer's report had recognised the importance of the turbine's dimensions, but condition 21 as drafted allowed all the safeguards to be sidestepped.
Given the centrality of condition 21 to the subject matter of the permission and the significance of the turbine's dimensions to it's environmental effects. The words of the tailpiece would permit variations in height so that the scale and impact of the turbine would be different from that covered by the planning permission actually granted.
The breadth of the words used in the condition meant that it could not be interpreted as being restricted to minor variations.
The condition allowed variations, up or down, and without any restriction either way, from the dimensions the Council had assessed and specified.
Indeed, the permission itself admitted that the conditions imposed could permit something different from that applied for because it expressly said that the development being permitted was that defined in the application materials "unless amended by any attached condition".
It would be quite wrong for the planning permission to be the subject of public debate and democratic decision-making in the Council, only then to be capable of being side-stepped by use of the tailpiece. The tailpiece was therefore unlawful and had to be severed from condition 21.

My family doesn't know that I use the lower in fat mozzarella cheese for this dish and they love it. Sometimes I use all mozzarella. I never use oil on my tortillas, I always steam them to soften -- another trick my family doesn't know. They think they like their Mexican food greasy and fattening but they always love mine.
Enchiladas, tacos, burritos are a weekly part of our diet. Years ago I became very concerned about the high fat content of this diet and started revising my recipes. I also boil ground beef, I then drain it in a colander and rinse it several times to remove as much fat as possible. Then I return it to a clean pan and add seasonings.

It was just last year that the Memphis Grizzlies tilted against the Oklahoma City Thunder. I compared this to an old style match between the Seattle Supersonics versus the Vancouver Grizzlies. This series in 2011 was an epic battle between two foregone teams. And the Grizzlies are back with virtually the same team that went to the conference semifinals last year. Playing a team with virtually the same putrid history of basketball irrelevance – the Los Angeles Clippers.
Led by Z-Bo (Zach Randolph) and Rudy Gay (with assists from O.J. Mayo, Marc Gasol and Mike Conley), the Grizzlies are poised again to reach the Conference Finals. And while a lot of writers believed that this team was horrible (remember how most everyone thought that the Gasol trade to the Lakers was so one-sided that Memphis' General Manager was supposed to resign?), the Grizzlies are again one of the powers in the Western Conference.
These days are a lot different than Vancouver's early days. No playoff appearances, an average of 19 wins a year for six years, no-shows in the stands. Bryant Reeves couldn't do anything about the team, and neither could Brian Hill. Despite Abdur-Rahim and Mike Bibby being on the team in the last year in Vancouver – 2000-2001 – the team could only muster 23 wins and promptly moved to Memphis the following year.
Here they are now, one of the darlings of the NBA. Similar to the Bad New Bears. An almost lovable team. And they are now one of the favorites to represent the Western Conference against the Heat (er, I mean the representative from the Eastern Conference)
Even Gilbert Arenas and his special brand of crazy can't stop the Grizzlies train. And that's saying something.

Newt Gingrich once said "Perseverance is the hard work you do after you get tired of doing the hard work you already did." There is a certain feeling people get when they accomplish something they feel was unattainable. Many times in people's lives, goals are set that they, and only they, believe can be obtained. People are not always going to have someone there to push them to achieve a particular goal. There will always be times when people will tell you that you cannot reach your goal and it is not worth the time. It is through inner strength and a strong belief in one's self to get up and not accept failure when you are knocked down by disbelievers.
In my life, mental toughness is required while playing basketball and attempting to learn a second language. Staying after practice everyday to work out does not only make me a better basketball player, it prepares me for any obstacle life throws at me. Doing more than what is expected builds character and provides a solid foundation for success in whatever a person does in his or her life. A person's character is exposed when that person encounters adversity. No matter what a person's goal may be, he or she will have to come upon an obstacle and make a decision on whether their goal is worth the struggle.
I am striving to become a high school Spanish teacher and a good basketball player. I am aware that playing on Ohio State Newark's men's basketball team will not get me to the NBA. However, my love for the game and the emotions that go through my head while I run down the court or shoot the ball allow me to feel blessed and gives me a sense of accomplishment.
People overcome adversity everyday and it is through them that gives everyone else hope to succeed. For example, the best basketball player who ever lived, Michael Jordan, got cut from his high school basketball team his junior year. Thomas Edison tried almost 10,000 times before he created the electric light. If he had given up, you would be reading this essay in the dark. R.H. Macy failed seven times before his store in New York caught on which is now the famous Macy's. English novelist John Creasey got 753 rejection slips before he published 564 books. Babe Ruth struck out 1,330 times, but he also hit 714 home runs. Don't worry about failure, but worry about the chances you miss when you do not even try.
Everyone has stood alone at one time in his or her life when it feels like no one supports or believes in them. If a person does not have to go through a struggle or overcome adversity, then the goal is not worth the time you put into it. Like Woody Hayes used to say, "Anything easy, ain't worth a damn."

After a tense meeting, the reformist Croatian cabinet agreed today to arrest and hand over two suspects sought by the United Nations war crimes tribunal in The Hague, Prime Minister Ivica Racan said.
But three cabinet ministers and Deputy Prime Minister Goran Granic -- all members of Mr. Racan's key ally, the Social Liberal Party -- resigned over the decision, the prime minister told reporters after an almost 10-hour emergency cabinet session.
In view of that, Mr. Racan said he would ask Parliament for a confidence vote next week, putting his coalition to its most serious test in its 18 months in power.
The governing alliance has a commanding majority in Parliament. But if the Social Liberal deputies join the opposition in voting against the cabinet, the vote might swing to no-confidence, which would make early elections almost certain.
Mr. Racan said the cabinet voted with only one dissent to forward two sealed indictments -- served by the tribunal almost a month ago -- to the Justice Ministry, which should then ''act in accordance with the constitutional clause on cooperation with the tribunal.''
The indictments are the first against Croatian officials.
While the suspects' names have not been made public, Croatian newspapers have identified the two men as Gen. Rahim Ademi and a retired general, Ante Gotovina, who commanded Croatian forces during the conflict with Serbia.Continue reading the main story
The government's popular ratings have been eroded by painful reforms and cuts in public sector employment and wages. Mr. Racan also faces likely mass protests from war veterans and right-wingers, who oppose a handover of indictees.Continue reading the main story

***1/2 (out of four)
Someone not paying attention to details may dismiss "Safety Not Guaranteed" as a standard indie quirkfest, featuring goofy characters, outrageous situations and the inevitable musical performance on an obscure instrument.
For the right kind of romantic, though, "Safety" offers pure outsider catharsis. Aubrey Plaza lends more layers than ever to her typical moodiness as Darius, whose Seattle Magazine internship brings her, a shy fellow intern (Karan Soni), and an irresponsible reporter (Chicago native Jake M. Johnson of "New Girl") looking to reconnect with an ex to a seaside Washington town. There, they track down Kenneth (Mark Duplass), who published an ad seeking a partner to join him on a time-travel mission where safety isn't guaranteed. (Note: Someone really did run an ad like that in a magazine.)
Jeff (Johnson) diagnoses Kenneth as a guy off his hinges but gets no information. Darius, who's drawn to Kenneth's offbeat enthusiasm, must become part of the story to get the story, posing as a potential companion without revealing her journalistic intentions to the paranoid Kenneth.
"Can you look fear and danger in the eye?" Kenneth asks. How many people can answer in the affirmative? With a low-key charm that remains entertaining even when landing on the milder side of funny, "Safety Not Guaranteed" builds into a surprisingly affecting essay on a world that mistakenly considers itself enlightened and on people who aren't as smart as they think. Darius' mom passed away when she was a kid—a time when she was picked on constantly and, she says, had a mustache until the age of 14. Now, though, others assume her life bounces along without fault simply because she's pretty. Meanwhile, sex-obsessed Jeff must decide what he really wants from his ex (Jenica Bergere), who may see his opinion as legit or absurd.
Duplass brings sensitivity to a man whose denim jacket, fixation on laser technologies and certainty that he's being recorded/followed nearly brands him as a joke. We're supposed to see him like that. "Safety Not Guaranteed" works because perception and selective memory aren't always what we think or want them to be, and love doesn't always go the way you expect. This convergence of wounded souls doesn't rewrite the indie formula, but it's enough to make you a believer again.

Degree Art Interview With Laura H Elliott:
"Meet Artist Laura H Elliott's Energetic Art Featuring Emotional Content": https://degreeart.com/blog/meet-artist-laura-h-elliott-energetic-art-featuring-emotional-content
About Laura H Elliott BA (Hons):
"I am the same in the arts as I am with life and learning, inquisitive and driven. My work is a dichotomy of mediums, as I create paintings side by side with my metal clay work. The exploration of my ideas over the years has led to an abstraction in my work, with one medium directly inspiring the other. It was a slow progression towards this change, but it has ignited such a new energy into my work. I adore both mediums, with each having its own process and challenges. I find painting an unfocussed, instinctual process, with a simple colour palette choice being the only planning I do. The metal clay is the opposite, as planning is key for the components used to work within the medium; however, the execution of my designs is, again, an instinctive process. Though my two mediums light a fire in my mind, each allows me to express my feelings and representations of life and who I am due to the contradiction of their natures, one being 2D and the other 3D. The challenge of working with clay has been a lifelong passion and it was when I decorated a clay piece of work aged 14 that I discovered painting and I have been in love with both ever since. I enjoy both mediums as they are unique, are a challenge and draw out of me the essence of who I am. The titles of each collection link together with the focal point of landscapes creating a united dialogue, but they break away from each other when you focus on the unique combinations of mediums and the final artworks. They both explore my fire, passion and life and I adore the challenges they create, just as life does. My art is a reflection of me always has been a deep love and is something that is a part of who I am, my identity."

Welcome to the World of Pokémon GS. If you've played Pokémon Yellow, Red or Blue before, you should be ready to jump right into the game and explore at your heart's content -- but you may also want to take a few minutes and read this section. Perhaps you will find some helpful information you didn't know about.
In many ways, Pokemon Gold and Silver play identically to Pokemon Yellow, Red and Blue and the strategies for one are pretty much the same for the other. Some of the new features are handy but self-explanatory. For instance, the item pack is now much larger and easier to use during play. The Pokedex and PC systems are likewise streamlined, and you have a new toy called a PokeGear that can have several handy features including a map, phone and radio. These features and others are described in the game's instructions, and are very easy to use. There are some other important differences, however, that merit additional explanation.
We have highlighted the most important new additions to the Pokémon universe with this symbol. So if you don't have enough patience or time to read everything here (or you already know everything there is to know about Blue/Red and Yellow).

The Savoy hotel – which has been shut for several years to undergo rigorous restoration works – has finally announced a re-opening date.
It has taken the legendary London residence over three years to complete what it calls the "most ambitious restoration in history", recruiting more than 1000 craftsmen and women, artists and artisans in the process. Now, the works are nearing completion, and the hotel is set to re-open on 10 October this year.
The interior has been completely revamped with the help of renowned designer Pierre Yves Rochon, who has channelled the hotel's classic mix of Edwardian and art deco style in an all-new format. This includes the addition of a luxurious-new two-bedroom suite, as well as 38 re-styled River Suites pictured and guests rooms over-looking the Thames.
The River Restaurant has been remodelled, and the Savoy Grill is set to return under the operation of Gordon Ramsey Holdings with chef patron Stuart Gillies and head chef Andy Cook manning the helm.
New to the hotel is The Beaufort Bar: an art deco-styled bar which will serve a selection of cocktails and Champagne while it entertains guests with cabaret performances. Tea shop Savoy Tea will be the perfect place to pick up a gourmet brew, and will sell tea-related accessories and fresh patisseries.
Those who wish to keep fit during their stay will be delighted to hear that there is also a new glass-covered fitness gallery, and a rooftop swimming pool.
Rates will start from ?350 per room per night, and reservations are due to open on 10 August 2010.

Hillsborough-northern judicial district
No. 2001-144
Argued: May 16, 2002
Opinion Issued: August 19, 2002
Philip T. McLaughlin, attorney general (Nicholas Cort, assistant attorney general, on the brief and orally), for the State.
Law Offices of Robert J. Moses, of Amherst (Robert J. Moses on the brief and orally), for the defendant.
Brock, C.J. The defendant, Patrick Stickney, appeals his conviction for driving after having been certified as a habitual offender. See RSA 262:23 (1993) (amended 2000, 2001). The defendant argues that the trial judge erred by: (1) improperly amending the indictment by not treating proof of a prior conviction as an element of the crime; (2) failing to charge the jury that the prior conviction must be proved beyond a reasonable doubt as an element of the crime; (3) denying the defendants motion in limine to preclude the State from calling the defendants prior attorney to identify him; and (4) denying the defendants motion to dismiss and motion in limine alleging discovery violations. We affirm.
The following facts are not in dispute. On March 17, 2000, the defendant was arrested by an officer of the Antrim Police Department and charged with one count of operation of a motor vehicle after certification as a habitual offender. See RSA 262:23. On May 18, 2000, the defendant was indicted and the trial was scheduled for October 10, 2000. On October 6, 2000, the prosecutor obtained a packet of material from the division of motor vehicles relating to the defendants certification as a habitual offender in 1993 (HO packet), which the prosecutor then faxed to defense counsel. The defendant subsequently filed a motion to dismiss the indictment because of discovery violations and, in the alternative, a motion in limine to preclude the introduction of the documents in the HO packet if dismissal were not granted.
On October 10, 2000, the court heard arguments on the pending motions, reconsidered its order denying the defendants motion to continue, and continued the trial for two months. It also denied the defendants motion to dismiss and indicated that the motion in limine would likely be denied if all requested discovery had been provided. The court later issued a written order which denied the motion in limine, but did not preclude the defendant from refiling the motion at trial.
One document in the HO packet contained what the State alleges is a typographical error, whereby the name of the defendant was replaced with the name of another individual at one place in the document. The hearings examiner testified that the error was the result of a failure to delete the name of a previous alleged habitual offender from a word processing document. In order to dispel any doubt concerning the defendants identity created by the inconsistency, the State announced shortly before trial its intention to call Attorney Paul Haley, who represented the defendant in the 1993 habitual offender hearing, as an identification witness. The defendant moved in limine to exclude Attorney Haleys testimony, and the court denied the motion.
A jury trial was held on December 11, 2000. Attorney Haley invoked the attorney-client privilege on the stand, but was instructed to testify. The defendant moved to dismiss at the close of the evidence on the grounds that the State had failed to prove the defendants prior misdemeanor conviction, and requested in the alternative that the court instruct the jury that the State was required to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that one of the offenses leading to his habitual offender certification was a misdemeanor as alleged in the indictment. The court denied both motions, and the defendant was found guilty. He was then sentenced to two and one-half to five years in State prison, subject to partial suspension under certain conditions. This appeal followed.
We first address the defendants argument that the alleged prior misdemeanor conviction is an element that the State is required to prove beyond a reasonable doubt. We today decided State v. LeBaron, 148 N.H. ___ (decided August 19, 2002), and it addresses the defendants arguments. In LeBaron, we held that the fact of a prior conviction is not an element under RSA 262:23. "[T]he legislature intended a specified prior conviction to be a sentencing factor and not an element of the offense." Id. at ___. In addition, we concluded that the due process guarantees of Part I, Article 15 of the State Constitution do not require the fact of a prior conviction to be proved beyond a reasonable doubt to convict under RSA 262:23. Id. at ___. Because the defendants prior misdemeanor conviction is not an element of the offense requiring proof beyond a reasonable doubt, we need not address the defendants argument regarding jury instructions.
We now turn to the ruling by the trial court that the identification testimony of Attorney Haley was not privileged. Attorney Haley was subpoenaed by the State to confirm that the defendant, a client of Attorney Haley at the time, was certified as a habitual offender at a public hearing in 1993. Attorney Haleys testimony concerned nothing more than the defendants presence at the public hearing, a fact already disclosed to everyone present at that hearing. The defendant argues that such testimony is covered by the attorney-client privilege.
New Hampshire Rule of Evidence 502 sets forth the attorney-client privilege. The general rule, in pertinent part, is that "[a] client has a privilege to refuse to disclose and to prevent any other person from disclosing confidential communications made for the purpose of facilitating the rendition of professional legal services to the client." N.H. R. Ev. 502(b). "A communication is confidential if not intended to be disclosed to third persons other than those to whom disclosure is made in furtherance of the rendition of professional legal services to the client or those reasonably necessary for the transmission of the communication." N.H. R. Ev. 502(a)(5).
The defendant cites to Baird v. Koerner, 279 F.2d 623 (9th Cir. 1960), for the principle that the attorney-client privilege should extend to the identification of a client by an attorney. "If the identification of the client conveys information which ordinarily would be conceded to be part of the usual privileged communication between attorney and client, then the privilege should extend to such identification in the absence of other factors." Id. at 632. From this principle, the defendant argues that the attorney-client privilege applies to the testimony provided by Attorney Haley before the trial court. We disagree.
Attorney Haleys testimony merely identified the defendant as the person who attended the habitual offender hearing on July 15, 1993, and who was certified as a habitual offender. The mere fact that Attorney Haley represented the defendant at a public hearing does not cause his testimony to be covered by the attorney-client privilege. Although his representation of the defendant may be the reason that Attorney Haley, among the many who witnessed the public hearing, remembers that day and this defendant, this is mere happenstance. The jury was not asked to infer that the defendant had engaged in wrongdoing from the fact that the defendant procured the services of an attorney; rather, Attorney Haley was asked to identify the defendant as the person who was the subject of the 1993 hearing.
Finally, we address the defendants argument that the trial court erred in denying the defendants motion to dismiss and motion in limine for discovery violations. Due to delay by the division of motor vehicles in sending the HO packet to the prosecution, the defendant did not receive a copy of the HO packet until it was faxed to defense counsel on October 6, 2000. The trial was scheduled for October 10, 2000. The State conceded responsibility for the late discovery, but argued that the defendant sustained no prejudice. The defendant requested either dismissal or that the trial go forward with the HO packet excluded as a sanction. The trial court disagreed, allowed the defendant additional time for trial preparation and allowed the trial to go forward.
The defendant argues that the trial court erred by "delay[ing] the proceedings for a sufficiently lengthy period of time to allow a conclusion to be reached that the discovery disclosure, originally too late, could then be deemed timely and harmless." While acknowledging our concern that the sanction of dismissal with prejudice affords a criminal defendant a windfall, the price of which is paid by the public rather than the State, see State v. Cotell, 143 N.H. 275, 281 (1998), the defendant argues that dismissal was appropriate in this case and the trial courts decision to simply delay the trial and give the defendant time to prepare, rather than sanctioning the State, was an unsustainable exercise of discretion. The defendant argues that the failure to provide the HO packet "should have resulted in sanctions and, if not dismissal, then at least exclusion of the [HO packet]."
Assuming without deciding that a discovery violation occurred, we find that the defendant was not prejudiced by the late disclosure. In cases of prosecutorial negligence, the defendant must show that he was actually prejudiced by the prosecutors discovery violation. See Cotell, 143 N.H. at 279. Actual prejudice exists if the defense has been impeded to a significant degree by the nondisclosure. See id. Here, the defendant was not prejudiced by the prosecutors discovery violation. The defendant does not claim that continuing the trial for two months was insufficient to cure any impediment caused by the late disclosure, and in fact offers in his brief that "the Trial Court effectively cured the States discovery violation . . . [by] allowing the Defendant more time to prepare to confront evidence against him." Although the admission of the HO packet may have made it more likely that the defendant would be convicted than if the HO packet had been excluded, this is not the kind of prejudice referred to in Cotell. "[U]nfair prejudice is not . . . mere detriment to a defendant from the tendency of the evidence to prove his guilt, in which sense all evidence offered by the prosecution is meant to be prejudicial." State v. Cochran, 132 N.H. 670, 672 (1990) (citations and quotations omitted). Accordingly, we conclude that there was no showing of unfair prejudice.
The defendant argues that it was the trial courts "failure to consider alternative sanctions and [its decision] to continue the matter . . . that constitutes error in this matter." While Cotell does state that a "trial court exceeds the proper bounds of its supervisory power to order dismissal of an indictment with prejudice when it fails to consider . . . less extreme sanctions," Cotell, 143 N.H. at 281 (quotation and brackets omitted), Cotell does not require a trial court to consider or impose sanctions when it orders procedural curative measures such as a continuance. In his brief, the defendant argues that the "discovery order" in this case, for purposes of Cotell, is Superior Court Rule 98. When Rule 98 is violated, "the court may take such action as it deems just under the circumstances, including . . . granting a continuance of the trial or hearing." Super. Ct. R. 98 J. We conclude that the trial court committed no error when it continued the case and denied both the motion to dismiss and the motion in limine.
NADEAU, DALIANIS and DUGGAN, JJ., concurred.

The OPA170-Q1, OPA2170-Q1, and OPA4170-Q1 devices (OPAx170-Q1) are a family of 36-V,
single-supply, low-noise operational amplifiers that feature micro packages with the ability to
operate on supplies ranging from 2.7 V (±1.35 V) to 36 V (±18 V). They offer good offset, drift,
and bandwidth with low quiescent current.
Unlike most operational amplifiers, which are specified at only one supply voltage, the
OPAx170-Q1 family of operational amplifiers is specified from 2.7 V to 36 V. Input signals beyond
the supply rails do not cause phase reversal. The OPAx170-Q1 family is stable with capacitive loads
up to 300 pF. The input can operate 100 mV below the negative rail and within 2 V of the positive
rail for normal operation. Note that these devices can operate with full rail-to-rail input 100 mV
beyond the positive rail, but with reduced performance within 2 V of the positive rail. The
OPAx170-Q1 operational amplifiers are specified from –40°C to +125°C.

Anxiety Disorders
Anxiety disorders range from feelings of discomfort to debilitating bouts of terror. Roughly 18% of the nation's population — about 40 million Americans over the age of 18 — are affected by anxiety, according to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA).
When someone spends at least six months worried excessively about everyday problems, they could have an anxiety disorder. However, incapacitating or troublesome symptoms for shorter periods of time may also warrant treatment.
Types of Anxiety Disorders
Of the 40 million Americans suffering from anxiety disorders, almost 7 million suffer from generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), 15 million suffer from social anxiety disorder, 14.8 million suffer from major depressive disorder, and 7.7 million are affected by post-traumatic stress disorder.
Types of anxiety issues include:
- Generalized anxiety disorder
- Social anxiety disorder or social phobia
- Panic disorder
- Panic attacks
- Separation anxiety disorder
- Selective mutism (inability to speak in some circumstances when capable of speaking in others)
- Specific phobia (irrational fears around specific places, objects and situations)
- Agoraphobia (fears around being in certain environments, often public situations)
- Substance/medication-induced anxiety disorder
- Anxiety disorder due to another medical condition
- Other specified anxiety disorder (doesn't meet requirements for other anxiety disorders, but has significant distress due to anxiety)
- Unspecified anxiety disorder
Anxiety Disorder Treatment
Anxiety disorder treatment should be tailored to each individual's specific type of anxiety problem, their individual physical and psychological make-up and situation, and any co-occurring disorders and underlying issues such as trauma. Treatments shown to be effective for anxiety disorders include cognitive behavioral therapy, relaxation techniques, and biofeedback to control muscle tension. Medication, most commonly anti-anxiety drugs such as benzodiazepines, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors and antidepressants, may also be helpful.
The Ranch treatment center takes a multidisciplinary approach to treating anxiety disorders. First we conduct thorough biopsychosocial assessments to create a treatment plan that addresses both anxiety issues and any other challenges such as substance abuse, eating disorders and compulsive behaviors. We also evaluate how past trauma or other underlying issues might be getting in the way of healthy functioning. Treatment addresses these issues from all angles — physical, spiritual and emotional. Clients embark on an experiential treatment journey that includes individual, group and family therapy as well as equine therapy, adventure therapy, trauma-focused therapies and spiritual exploration. Learn more about our anxiety treatment program or call 888-844-5865.
Signs and Symptoms of Anxiety Disorders
It's normal for people to experience occasional anxiety due to life circumstances or stressors, but prolonged, intensive episodes of anxiety are indicative of a problem that needs professional medical and behavioral attention.
Symptoms of anxiety disorders vary depending on the type of anxiety disorder, but generally include:
- Inability to alleviate concerns even with knowledge that the situation does not call for the intense level of anxiety
- Excessive worry that interferes with everyday life
- Inability to relax
- Difficulty concentrating
- Insomnia and/or difficulty staying asleep
- Headaches
- Irrational fears or phobias
- Digestive problems like irritable bowel syndrome
- Excessive nervousness or obsessing over one's performance in social situations or when speaking or performing in public, both before and after the event
- Muscle tension, aches, trembling or twitching
- Panic attacks
- Constant self-doubt or over-questioning actions or decisions
- Regularly remembering/replaying negative experiences whether events were traumatic or just stressful
- Irritability
- Difficulty swallowing
- Sweating
- Nausea
- Hot flashes
- Feeling out of breath without physical exertion

There are more than 10 signs of depression, according to Mayo Clinic. Symptoms that involve emotions include feelings of persistent sadness, irritability, frustration, guilt or worthlessness. Mental abilities are impaired, such as difficulties concentrating, remembering and deciding, lack of interest in pleasant daily activities, and thoughts of death or suicide.
Physical signs include insomnia or too much sleep, food cravings or reduced appetite, lack of energy, agitation or restlessness, and slowed speech or movement, Mayo Clinic explains. Physical problems such as back pain or headaches develop, but no cause is apparent. People's tempers flare up over relatively minor matters. Sometimes individuals who are depressed attempt suicide.

This week as many of you know, the Supreme Court will be hearing cases concerning Marriage Equality. I for one can't even imagine how they could rule for anything except Equality, but then again I'm not very politically savvy.
I am glad the issue is getting so much attention however. It has to make people think…why would any group of people be denied what everyone else can take for granted? If Biblical reasons are used for this form of discrimination, then where is the separation of church and state? Plus, if we are going to form a Bible based government, soooo many things will have to be outlawed, like shellfish, bacon, working on Sunday, most modern fabrics, cussing — oh my!
This week I invite you to pray with me that the Supreme Court uphold the Divine Idea that is at the heart of our Constitution, that all are created equal and should have an equal opportunity to the pursuit of Happiness with the person they love.

Dental implants act as a replacement for missing or lost teeth and provide a secure solution for traditional dentures. Dental implants are drilled into the base of the jawbone and act as a restored root for teeth. As a more effective and durable means of obtaining false teeth, dental implants will allow you to achieve the natural appearance you are looking for.
To protect a tooth from breaking or further decay, a porcelain crown may be needed. Porcelain crowns are tooth-shaped molds or "caps" that are placed over a withering tooth. Caps help to restore your tooth's natural size and shape and enhance the appearance of your smile.
Porcelain bridges are an option for replacing missing or lost teeth. Acting as a literal bridge between remaining teeth, porcelain bridges are false teeth that fill the space of missing teeth. If you are looking to fix an unsightly gap in your teeth, then porcelain bridges may be an option for you.

This Day in U.S. Coast Guard History - April 29
1909- Burnt Island, Maine: The schooner Regina stranded five miles north of the station. The Life-Saving crew, in a small power boat, arrived at the same time as the tug Bismarck. After the tug had pulled her afloat, the keeper piloted them out into clear water.

The majority of social scientists believe that income inequality currently poses a problem for American society with Alan Greenspan stating it to be a "very disturbing trend."
In a 2004 poll of 1,000 economists (from the AEA), a majority of polled economists favor "redistribution". A study by the Southern Economic Journal found that "71 percent of American economists believe the distribution of income in the US should be more equal, and 81 percent feel that the redistribution of income is a legitimate role for government." Data from the United States Department of Commerce and Internal Revenue Service indicate that income inequality has been increasing since the 1970s, whereas it had been declining during the mid 20th century. As of 2006, the United States had one of the highest levels of income inequality.
Americans have the highest income inequality in the rich world and over the past 20–30 years Americans have also experienced the greatest increase in income inequality among rich nations. The more detailed the data we can use to observe this change, the more skewed the change appears to be... the majority of large gains are indeed at the top of the distribution.
Many social scientists, such as economists Paul Krugman and Timothy Smeeding and political scientists Larry Bartels and Nathan Kelly, point to public policy and partisan politics as an important cause of inequality. They point out that education, labor force, and demographic changes cannot be the sole cause of the widening gap between the rich and the poor, and that the U.S. is unique in having experienced such a rise in inequality - a trend that, if caused by education, labor force, and demographic factors, would have manifested itself in other developed nations.
Since the 1970s, inequality increased during the 1980s, decreased slightly during the late 1990s and has since continued its overall increasing trend.
Income inequality diminishes growth potential through the erosion of social cohesion, increasing social unrest and social conflict causing uncertainty of property rights. Extreme inequality can effectively reduce access to productivity enhancement measures, or cause such measures to be allocated inefficiently toward those who already have, or can no longer absorb such measures.
High inequality yields high Theil redundancies. High redundancy means low entropy. But this does not necessarily imply that a very high inequality is "good", because very low entropies also can lead to explosive compensation processes.

Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius is in trouble for dissing an industry she might not have known was in her state, as the AP reported:
She was in Washington state Tuesday for a fund raiser for a fellow Democratic governor, Chris Gregoire, who made a point of praising her state's wines.
A Seattle Post-Intelligencer columnist later reported Sebelius' reply, meant as a jest.
"You should be thankful we don't make wine in Kansas," Sebelius said. "If you ever see Kansas wine, don't drink it."
But Sebelius is now drinking the Kool-Aid from her state's vineyards:
"She ... made a poor attempt at humor but says she won't do that again," [spokeswoman Nicole] Corcoran said.
Gov. Patrick had better think twice before making any jokes about seemingly inconceivable Massachusetts products. (Is there caviar from Cape Cod? Does the town of Florida really grow oranges?) Surely he's already familiar with our blueberry and cranberry wines. And our vineyards don't have corny puns in their names.

The Oslo-born family sent its first members to America in 1866 to establish the foundation on which the family would build for decades to come.
Englehart studied at the Royal School of Art in Oslo and apprenticed as a jeweler. Coming to Providence in 1869, he worked for several prestigious firms before starting his own in 1879 in partnership with Nathan B. Barton. Ostby & Barton is known to this day in Providence.
A member of Grace Episcopal Church, Englehart was known for his good works, charitable acts, and astute business sense. He became trustee and director on many boards and banks in the city. He married Lizzy Macy Webster in 1876 and four sons and a daughter were born to the distinguished couple.
Helene Ragnhild, named for Engleharts sister, would later drop the final e on her name and become plain Helen. Helen was to lose her mother at age ten when Lizzy died tragically in 1899, leaving Engleharts mother, Josephine to help raise the children.
When Helen was about seventeen, her father would take the pretty daughter with him on business trips to Europe, especially Paris. Helen got to see Norway at last in 1907.
While on the Grand Tour which included Egypt, they heard about the chance of returning home on the Titanic. Friends they had met in Egypt, the Warrens, were already booked, and so the Ostbys boarded First Class at Cherborg. Englehart carried aboard his black leather bag filled with gems he had collected in his travels.
The following recollection is given by Helen in 1912 and 1962. She had been collected at the pier by her brothers and taken to the Belmont Hotel, where the hotel managers threw a crowd of newspapermen out of the lobby and got Helen safely to a fourth-floor suite. The lobby is described as a pitiable picture as one survivor after another was half-led, half-carried into the office and whisked off upstairs to quiet rooms. Some had to be carried in chairs and one or two on stretchers, and all looked as if they had stepped from the "very mouth of the Inferno".
They hoped to get Helen on a train for Providence Friday morning if she could stand the trip. She was attended in her room by Dr. Lamb and a trained nurse. The doctor was obliged to give her a sleeping draught about 2 a.m. Friday morning. During the night, the brothers were trying to learn news of their father, as the word back in Providence was that both had been saved on Carpathia- the shock of the truth was overwhelming.
Dr. Emery Porter, of St. Luke's Hospital and a personal friend of Raymond Ostby from tennis-playing days at Brown University, finally convinced the brothers that Englehart was drowned when he explained he had visited every sick person on Carpathia and Mr. Ostby was not among the saved.
The brothers called home with the sad news and the rest of the family took the midnight train from Providence to New York. The plan was made to spread out and check every single hospital and charitable group which had gathered-in Titanic's survivors from the pier. Dr. Porter had mentioned there were some bodies aboard Carpathia which he was not permitted to see, so their was still hope.
Helen related her story to her brother Raymond who released it to the the Journal as follows:
"When the crash came, father and I were in our cabins in bed. The crash was terrible and we got up and stood there near the staterooms for a moment. We put on a few clothes after a short time and about that time stewards and stewardesses came round telling us there was no danger. Some of the people went back to bed again. Father told me to go up on deck as I had bundled up warmly. He said he would put on some more clothes and join me immediately so I went. As soon as I got on deck I met Mr. and Mrs. Frank Warren and we remained together for a short time waiting for father. Commotion had begun at that time and the escaping steam made it almost impossible to hear conversation. People all around us were putting on life belts so we three did the same. I wondered what kept father below however, and after about ten minutes I went down to try to find him. I guess my father must have come up on deck some other way for I could not find him in the stateroom. Thinking he had gone up and joined the Warrens, I too went back but he had not been around there. I was waiting for him all the time when the crew came around and told us to get into one of the boats. We all hung back awhile, I wanted father to come with us but the men insisted that we hurry up so we got in. That is, Mrs. Warren and I got in with some other women and a man."
This later 1962 account continues
" It was a very unpleasant feeling stepping into that boat because although it was level with the boat deck, it was swung out over the water so that there was a little gap between it and the side of the ship. An officer and two sailors manned the boat and just as it was lowering, two men from among the passengers were allowed to jump into it. Once below the boat deck, there were no lights so it was difficult for the men on the deck who were letting the boat down by ropes to keep it level. First on end would dip, then the other. By the time we were lowered to the water, the Titanic had begun very noticeably to go down by the head. The stars were out but it was pitch dark. As we pulled away we could see the lights of the ship and the lighted forward portholes gradually disappearing. As we were sitting there watching, the first of about eight distress rockets went off so high in the sky that they startled everyone. Everybody began to talk in the dark and wonder whether our ship had been able to send off any wireless messages.
Up until that time, things had gone on very calmly. But at the end we could see and hear people on board were realizing there was no place to go. As the ship began to stand on end we heard a big rumbling, rattling noise as if everything was being torn from their moorings inside the ship. She stood quietly on her end for a minute, then went down like an arrow. Everybody was looking and hoping to see the lights of a ship. Of course some complained of losing jewelry and clothing -and some the cold. One woman was seasick. When somebody happened to mention jewelry left behind, I remembered for the first time that I had lost a diamond bar pin which was given me by my father which was still pinned to my nightgown aboard ship. I hadn't given it a though, and when I was reminded, it didn't matter. At dawn we could see the Carpathia was heading toward us. She stopped a mile or so away and let the scattered lifeboats come to her. They slung over a rope hitch like a bo'sun chair. I sat in it and held onto the rope."
1912 interview:
"Our treatment on the Carpathia could not have been better. As soon as we were aboard, stewards wrapped blankets about us and led us into the dining room where steaming hot brandy was waiting. This I think may have saved many lives. There was also coffee and tea. After that some went on deck, some to staterooms. Standing there on deck I looked up and saw Mr. and Mrs. Chapin. They took me down to their stateroom and Mrs. Warren went too. It was noble, Absolutely everything was done that could be done. I tried to send a wireless Tuesday but the wireless men collapsed under the strain as they had so much to do. The last I saw of Capt. Smith he was on the deck in charge of things. My last sight of Mr. Ismay showed him in pajamas only helping women into boats. I have been told he put on evening clothes. In that way he came aboard Carpathia. Mrs. Astor had a cut on her face. That afternoon we sailed along the edge of an ice floe miles long and in it, now and then, was a mountain of ice."
Helen is recorded in newspapers as saying she had seen Col. Astor clinging to a life raft, until exhausted by the strain and overcome by the chilling waters, he relaxed his fingers and sank beneath the surface. She also witnessed up on deck, the touching moment when Mrs. Straus stepped back.
Mr. and Mrs. Howard Chapin of Providence were on a honeymoon tour of Europe. Helen had known Mrs. Chapin as Miss Hope B. Brown, the daughter of former governor D. Russell Brown. Helen would go on to survive many other harrowing escapes. IN 1914 she had been traveling in Germany when the war broke out but escaped through Flandres and arrived in Liege the same day as the German soldiers. She later returned to Belgium and lived in Brussels for ten years. One morning in 1940 she was awakened by German bombs from planes overhead. During her last five months there, Belgium was occupied by invading Nazi armies. When she returned to Providence in January 1941, she gave a first-hand account of the fleeing refugees. She waited three months in Lisbon for passage home.
Ostby & Barton continued on - managed by the brothers. Englehart's address at 61 Cooke Street was found in his pocket. The magnificent mansion stands today, not far from 230 Waterman where the family had lived many years before Titanic. Helen, when unable to care for herself went to live a few blocks away in the luxurious Wayland Manor residential hotel.
It would seem Helen remained vivacious and strong-willed to the end. Today, if one calls her church, Grace Episcopal, at the corner of Westminster and Mathewson, they remember the Osbys- "Mr. Raymond used to lend his car for church canvassing back in 1916- they had one of the few automobiles around back then. That was a great family, giving in church and community." Englehart was found and laid to rest in a magnificent mahogany casket at Swan Point Cemetery , a 17 foot granite Celtic cross above his head and his dynasty laid to rest all around him. Mr. Warren was never found.

Brazil international Neymar says he is growing bored of supporters jeering his performances in the wake of the Selecao's 2-2 friendly draw against Chile on Wednesday.
The Santos star was booed throughout by fans, despite scoring once and creating Brazil's other goal, but he has made it clear that he has become accustomed used to the public's critical approach.
"Obviously no one likes to be jeered and booed. I don't care about it any more, though. I get booed each game with the national team. It's getting boring," Neymar told Reuters.
"We always give our utmost for the team. All our opponents try do something extra when they meet Brazil. It's up to us do even better.
"We have to get used to being jeered. That's football. One day you're booed and the next day people praise you. That's the way it is."
Brazil's next match is the Confederations Cup match against Japan on June 15.
