Seemingly wealthy CBS Sports baseball writer Jon Heyman really should know better to bring up money in a Twitter fight. After all, he's a fancy man who prefers the finer amenities in life—or so we've been able to surmise—and when he wants you to reveal certain tidbits of info that he'd otherwise have to pay for, well, that's just not going to fly with The Heyman. Kevin Goldstein of ESPN/Baseball Prospectus, who shares more baseball knowledge with his Twitter followers than arguably any other writer, found that out the hard way tonight when he rebuffed Heyman's insistance on knowing how many minor league pitchers he'd rank above Mets prospect Zack Wheeler. That's when The Heyman came at Goldstein, and nothing—nothing, I say—was off limits.
See, Heyman said "lol" so that means everything is cool now. :)

PORTSMOUTH — The man killed in an industrial accident at the Redhook Brewery in Portsmouth this week has been identified as employee Benjamin Harris.
Harris suffered critical injuries when a pressurized beer keg exploded at Redhook's facility at the Pease Tradeport. He was rushed to Portsmouth Regional Hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries.
On Wednesday, a hospital spokesperson confirmed Harris was the man killed in the blast.
According to his Facebook page, Harris was a Newington resident, and was a native of Beaver Falls, Pa.
Portsmouth fire officials said Harris was cleaning residual liquid out of kegs by filling them with pressurized air when one of the containers ruptured at approximately 7 a.m. on Tuesday.
The explosion took place in a storage and supply area of the Redhook facility, which is located beside a brewery and pub at Pease Tradeport.
On Tuesday afternoon, Redhook Brewing's vice president of commercial operations, Andy Thomas, said the company is "doing everything in our power to understand the circumstances surrounding this tragic accident."
In a statement, Smith said all nonessential operations at the brewery, including the pub, will be closed while the investigation continues.
"We believe it would not be appropriate to comment further until the investigation is concluded," Thomas said in the statement. "Our sympathy is with his family and everyone touched by the tragedy."

Computacenter squeezed by drop in demand
Q3 revs look droopy
Computacenter's (CC) UK biz was squeezed in calendar Q3 by falling demand for bulky professional services deals and a continued drop in product sales.
Revenues fell 15 per cent to £234m for the three months ended 30 September, but at group level sales grew 5 per cent to £652m as CC's German arm and acquisitions in France offset the sluggish UK market.
The service-based reseller confirmed that product sales on this side of the English channel had slumped 20 per cent, albeit a slight improvement on the 22.6 per cent decline reported in the first half of the year.
However, perhaps less expected was the 6 per cent slide in UK services revenues.
"[This] is solely attributed to the declining revenue of our Professional Services business and more specifically, cabling, which is suffering from a decline in large construction projects," said CC in a statement.
The firm added that the service biz pipeline and recent managed services contracts wins made it "optimistic" about prospects for the UK operation.
CC Germany grew 19 per cent to €339m, including the minor acquisition of HSD and DAMAX in Switzerland, which were rolled into the numbers. Product sales rose 22 per cent and services edged up 14 per cent.
The acquisition of TopInfo in France helped CC grow country operations 28 per cent to €126m but excluding this deal turnover dipped 2 per cent. Product and services revenues were up 29 and 23 per cent respectively.
The board warned that trading conditions in the second half of 2011 will be more "challenging" than a year ago but talked up the new business pipeline.
"While there are clearly no certainties, we are confident that 2011 will prove to be the most successful year in Computacenter's journey by delivering record growth rates in our contractual services business that will underpin growth in the years ahead," the firm said. ®

She likes to be in charge of all things creative but when she's not filming or editing or talking to clients she can occasionally be found at ballet class or doing yoga.
Simon works behind the scenes to make sure our shiny site gets seen by you lovely people. When he's not posing, trying to look cool he helps out with marketing and SEO (Search Engine Optimisation). He is also a dab hand at on-site catering and project management in general.

Sadly, he crossed the rainbow bridge on 28th March 2015 and will now be watching over your edit from elsewhere. He was highly trained in social interaction and would have high-fived you. The end of an era...RIP Pippie, we will never, ever forget you!!
Together, we create very personal wedding films in a cinematic style, we let your day unfold naturally and never make you pose or talk to camera - unless you want to, that is. We promise, you will hardly know we're there.
We will work with you to incorporate your own style and make sure your film is as unique and individual as your wedding day.
We put a lot of time and expertise into our work and we'd like to think the results speak for themselves, so we won't go on. But don't just take our word for it - we've also left a long trail of happy clients over ...ermh... quite a lot of years.

Date: May 16, 2013
Contact: Deanne Amaden or Jose A. Carnevali
Phone: 415-625-2630 or 415-625-2631
U.S. Department of Labor
Wage and Hour Division
Release Number: 13-874-SEA (SF-63)
Alaska energy company agrees to pay $43,000 in back wages, resolving US Labor Department lawsuit over FMLA violations
ANCHORAGE, Alaska -- The U.S. Department of Labor and ASRC Energy Services Alaska Inc. have agreed to a consent judgment in federal court that will result in the payment of $43,000 in back wages for an employee who was allegedly terminated in violation of the Family and Medical Leave Act. The judgment also permanently enjoins the defendants from future violations of the FMLA.
The judgment and order resolve a lawsuit filed by the department in the U.S. District Court of the District of Alaska after an investigation by the Seattle District Office of the department's Wage and Hour Division. The investigation found that the employee was terminated while he was on leave for a serious health condition, in violation of the FMLA.
"For more than two decades, the FMLA's job-protected leave entitlements have served as a critical safety net for our nation's workers and families. This law continues to help achieve a healthy, productive balance between the demands of work and family life," said Donna Hart, director of the Wage and Hour Division's Seattle District Office. "This judgment demonstrates the department's commitment to ensuring employees receive all of the protections to which they are entitled under the FMLA, and to helping employers understand and comply with the law."
ASRC Energy Services Alaska is an oil and gas support services company that provides permitting, maintenance, construction, engineering and fabrication functions for the energy industry in Alaska and throughout the U.S. The company has operations in remote locations, such as North Slope, Alaska, and commonly assigns employees to these locations on rotational schedules, with periods of several weeks of continuous work followed by weeks of time off.
The division found that the employer incorrectly counted against the employee's FMLA leave entitlement weeks that he was not scheduled to be at work and terminated him for exceeding the approved amount of leave. If an employee is not scheduled to report for work, that time period is not leave and, therefore, may not count against the employee's 12-week FMLA leave entitlement. Investigators determined that the employer failed to comply with this requirement.
ASRC Energy Services voluntarily reinstated the affected employee to his former position. In addition to the payment of back wages, ASRC Energy Services has agreed to comply with the FMLA going forward and to ensure it will not include rest and relaxation periods in calculating the 12-week entitlement to leave under the FMLA for rotational workers.
The FMLA allows an eligible employee to take up to 12 workweeks of unpaid leave to bond with a newborn, newly adopted or newly placed child, for their own serious health condition, or to care for a seriously ill child, spouse or parent, without fear of losing their job and with continuation of health care coverage under the same terms and conditions as if the employee had not taken leave. FMLA leave may also be taken for specified reasons related to certain military deployments and up to 26 workweeks of leave to care for a covered service member with a serious injury or illness. An employer is prohibited from interfering with, restraining, or denying the exercise of, or the attempt to exercise, an FMLA right. Prohibited conduct includes refusal to authorize FMLA leave for an eligible employee.
For more information on the FMLA, call the Wage and Hour Division's toll-free helpline at 866-4US-WAGE (487-9243), its Seattle district office at 206-398-8039 or its Anchorage field office at 907-271-2867. Information also is available at http://www.dol.gov/whd.

In vitro fertilisation (IVF)
In vitro fertilisation, better known by the initials IVF, literally means 'fertilisation in a glass'. It is a laboratory procedure to assist women with fertility problems in which an egg is fertilised by sperm within a Petri dish. The first child born through IVF was Louise Brown in England in 1978. Now thousands of 'test-tube babies' are born each year.
The pioneers of IVF were two British researchers: gynaecologist Patrick Steptoe and physiologist Robert Edwards. Both were interested in human fertility problems before collaborating in 1966: Edwards had fertilised human eggs within the laboratory; Steptoe had obtained human eggs from the ovaries by using a laparoscope, a long, thin telescopic instrument. Combining these skills produced mature eggs at the optimum time to improve chances for successful fertilisation and development.
The IVF process now follows several steps. Drug and hormone treatment encourages a woman's body to produce a greater number of eggs. Once they are mature, these eggs are collected by a specialist guided by live ultrasound images of the ovaries. The eggs are then mixed with sperm. In certain cases they may be directly injected with a single sperm. Successfully fertilised eggs are placed in an incubator before two or three are transferred directly into the womb. Remaining eggs are frozen for future IVF attempts.
IVF is a major infertility treatment, but it is expensive and invasive. Although success rates have improved, a large difference remains between the number of successful implantations and those which result in a live birth.

If you thought glitter was the domain of five year old girls or adults with a fetish for fairy dust, then think again. Sparkly stuff has become de rigieur of late, and if applied correctly, glittery makeup can transform your look from dull to dazzling in no time.
After all, when it comes to a snazzy party, a retro disco or a big night out, average-looking makeup just doesn't cut it anymore. So, if you have a glitzy event to attend, I suggest you try out Sparkler by Frontcover Cosmetics.
The set includes a tube of iridescent glitter gel, a double ended brush and three small pots containing black glitter, gold glitter and gold sequins. The materials are easy to apply and the lilac-hued gel has a nice consistency; not too sticky, but it holds the materials firmly in place.
As is the case with all Frontcover sets, the Sparkler kit is inspired by recent catwalk trends and includes instructions on how to use the products in order to create certain looks. There are three 'looks' in total; Mirror Ball, Black Wing and Twinkling Eyes & Nails, but you can experiment to your heart's content. I certainly did!
The set also includes three shimmery, long-lasting nail varnishes; I like to apply Galaxy Bound to my fingernails followed by a strip of Vinaceous down the centre of each nail for an edgy finish. The Sparkler set is currently reduced from £16 to £11.20 at frontcovercosmetics.com.

How to Create Your Own Jewelry Line
by Emilie Shapiro
Giveaway ends November 11, 2016.
See the giveaway details
at Goodreads.
From the Introduction:
I have found the majority of people in the jewelry industry—and most industries—to be very secretive when it comes to sharing trade insights, contacts, best practices, and trials and errors of their own path. After getting loads of questions about this from my students, I decided to teach a lecture-style class about jewelry production. The response was overwhelming.
Through years of experience holding many different jobs in diverse facets of the jewelry industry, I have learned from my mistakes and accomplishments and have applied all those lessons to building my own company. In writing this book, my goal is to share the insights I have gained with aspiring designers to help them become successful jewelry designers and business owners. I am extremely proud to be writing this book, and to make this information available to a large audience.
I have always had a knack for design and business, but it took me many years to develop the skills and the patience of a craftsperson. From my earliest days, I was interested in designing and creating things. My father worked in sales at a fabric mill in New York City's garment district, so fabric samples in all sorts of patterns were always available in my playroom. I have fond memories of wandering the sample floor high above Eighth Avenue and learning about color and texture. When I was five, I loved designing and making clothes for my dolls. Using my (not-so) safety scissors, I would cut up my fabric to make outfits for my dolls.
I made my first piece of jewelry when I was thirteen and haven't stopped since then. After my grandmother passed away, I found a bag of her costume jewelry. I was always fascinated by how things were made, so I started taking apart my grandmother's necklaces, bracelets, and brooches and putting them back together in a new way. Focusing on design, rather than construction, I haphazardly assembled my own pieces, but they always fell apart. When I was in high school, I started selling my jewelry to friends, family, and the people who would watch me make it while I was working at a local beach club. My designs were strong, but the craftsmanship was weak.
Running a jewelry production business is different from being an artist. An artist can focus solely on design and aesthetics. A jewelry entrepreneur must be concerned about the customer's satisfaction after the purchase. You're looking to create a piece that will be cherished and passed down from generation to generation.
I didn't learn this until many years later, but it takes time to hone your craft. It calls for a lifetime of research, discipline, trial and error, and learning from your mistakes. Certain things come naturally to each of us, and certain things have to be learned. Design and business were always strong suits for me. I knew two things: I wanted to be my own boss and I wanted to make original pieces that would be treasured for years to come.

Labour Market Implications of a Compressed Wage Structure when Education and Training are EndogenousMalchow-Møller, Nikolaj; Skaksen, Jan Rose (København, 2003)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: We consider the economic implications of a compressed wage structure which is exogenously determined by institutions. An important feature of our analysis is that human capital is endogenous and can be achieved either as formal education or as informal training within firms after entering the labour market. While institutional wage compression decreases the incentives of individuals to become educated, it increases the incentives of firms to invest in training. As a result, the net effects of wage compression on the aggregate human capital level and GDP are ambiguous. Moreover, with wage compression, a skillbiased technological change may cause wage inequality to decrease.

Abstract: Product Market Integration, Comparative Advantages and Labour Market Performance* In a two-country model with trade driven by comparative advantages, it is considered how imperfectly competitive labour markets are affected by lower frictions in international goods trade. Easier goods trading is equivalent to increased mobility of employment across countries and thus a change in the trade-off between wages and employment faced by wage setters. While the effects of product market integration on the trade-off between wages and employment in general is ambiguous, it is shown that product market integration works like a general improvement in productivity via the specialization it allows through trade. Unambiguously, real wages and employment and welfare improve upon reductions in trade frictions, and therefore workers are better off irrespective of whether the market power of unions is enhanced or muted.

A Disaggregate PerspectiveMalchow-Møller, Nikolaj; Skaksen, Jan Rose (København, 2003)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Skill-Biased Technological Change in Denmark: A Disaggregate Perspective* In this paper, we provide an industry-level analysis of skill-biased technological change (SBTC) in Denmark over the last two decades. The analysis shows that SBTC has varied considerably across industries, and traditionally large Danish industries have experienced relatively less SBTC. This may partly explain why wage inequality between skilled and less skilled has risen less in Denmark than in other countries. We also find that SBTC has been concentrated in already skill-intensive industries. This contains important information about future labour requirements, as the relative importance of these industries must be expected to grow, thereby reinforcing the shift in demand for skilled labour.

Abstract: While examining the macroeconomic effects of increased government control of the informal sector, this paper develops a two-sector general equilibrium model featuring matching frictions and worker- firm wage bargaining. Workers search for jobs in both the formal and the informal sector. We analyse the impact of higher punishment rates and a higher audit rate on labour market performance. We find that a higher punishment rate reduces the size of the informal sector and reduces unemployment. A higher audit rate has an ambiguous impact on unemployment, and may actually increase the size of the underground economy.

DENVER - An Iraqi man hailed as a hero for helping U.S. soldiers in Iraq is one of five Iraqis accused of rape-related charges after a woman suffered serious injuries during a sex assault in Colorado Springs.
Jasim Mohammed Hassin Ramadon, 22, was charged with sexual assault and being an accessory after he was arrested Tuesday in connection with the July 22 attack.
Soldiers said they met Ramadon in 2003, when he pleaded with them to arrest him in exchange for key information about local insurgents.
Ramadon was featured in "A Soldier's Promise," a combat memoir by Army First Sgt. Daniel Hendrex, published in 2009, that detailed his relationship with Ramadon as a teenager who risked his life to provide information to U.S. soldiers deployed in Husaybah, a town in Al Anbar Province of Iraq.
During an interview months ago on KOAA-TV in Colorado Springs, Ramadon said his mother told him to help the Americans. When he tried to return, she told him he had to go back to the soldiers or be killed. His Army protectors said Ramadon ultimately turned over 40 insurgents to the Americans, including his father.
Several soldiers interviewed by KOAA-TV said Ramadon was brought to the United States for his help and he settled in Colorado Springs, where the Army unit was based at Fort Carson.
Ramadon said he got into trouble at school in Colorado Springs after students started calling him a terrorist.
"I didn't know how to react, so I started getting into fights," he said.
He later married and had a child.
Lt. Howard Black said Wednesday the attack on the woman was "one of the most horrific assaults I have ever seen." He refused to provide other details.
Court documents said the woman told police she heard a disturbance outside her apartment while getting the mail and intervened. Afterward, she said she was invited to the apartment of one of the men where she was given lemonade and then passed out. Authorities said she suffered serious internal injuries from an attack.
Others arrested in the case include Sarmad Fadhi Mohammed, accused of sexual assault and being an accessory, and Mustafa Sataar Al Feraji, Ali Mohammed Hasan Al Juboori, and Yasir Jabbar Jasim, accused of being accessories. They were each being held on $250,000 bond.
Court records indicate Ramadon has a public attorney. It was not known if the other suspects had legal representation.
A phone number listed for Hendrex in Colorado Springs was busy.

Does gravity slow the expansion of the universe?
I read through the thread http://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=322633 and I have the same question. I know that the universe is not being stopped by gravity, but is the force of gravity slowing it down in any way? Without the force of gravity, would space expand faster?
Help me formulate this question better if you know what I am asking.

The cazador nest is a location in the Mojave Wasteland, located just west of Ranger station Delta and south-west of the Hoover Dam. Despite there being other cazador nests in the Mojave, this is the only named one.
Populated by several cazadores, this location is purely external with no caves or structures to enter. There is a hollowed-out rock on the right. Near the cave entrance and next to a human skeleton are two containers: an "adventurer's pack" and an explosives crate. There is a small campsite on a hill northwest of the cave with a campfire, locked ammunition box and locked mine box.
The cazador nest appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.
Behind the scenesEdit
This location is called "mole rat nest" in the German, Italian, French and Spanish release of the game, which also coincides with the name of the cell. This alludes to the developers originally planning on placing mole rats here rather than cazadores.

Spice & Nut Tools
Just as you use specialized tools such as pepper mills to grind peppercorns, it makes good sense to use a specific tool to grind or crack spices and nuts. From spicy, tasty seeds, such as nutmeg, to hard-shelled nuts like walnuts, the right tools can make a huge difference in the way you use and enjoy the ingredients in your kitchen. Williams-Sonoma's spice tools and nut tools offer you versatility for expanding your culinary horizons while also helping you reduce the chances of undesirable flavor transfer from one piece of equipment to another. This product category will help you access better-quality ingredients by allowing you to do prep work at home.
As with all foods, spices have a shelf life. Spices like cloves, nutmeg, cardamom and fennel do lose flavor in time. A bland-flavored spice defeats the purpose for which it was intended. Bottled, ground spices are convenient and are must-have seasonings for every kitchen. If you're ready to elevate your approach to flavoring, our spice grinders may be just right for you. These tools give you the power to make your own spice blends and keep seeds, which have a longer shelf life, in your spice drawer until you're ready to use them.
Nutmeg is a great example of a spice derived from a seed that you can grind at home. Whether you're using it for baking or cooking, nutmeg tastes amazing when its freshly ground. Our nutmeg grinders allow you to grate off small portions of this large, dark seed so you can get pungent, flavorful spice on demand. Nutmeg is particularly prized for being a spice that's easy to grind at home, but your efforts to pursue fresh spice flavor don't need to end there.
With our spice grinders, you can create your own curry powder from scratch, whip up some Chinese five-spice powder or simply grind mustard seeds for your own homemade version of this classic yellow condiment. While you can use an electric coffee grinder for this task, it's a better idea to have a separate spice grinder if you're a frequent coffee drinker and prolific cook. That way, you won't have to worry about flavor transfer, that is, you won't wake up one morning and freshly grind some coffee that ends up tasting like curry. While that may not be an undesirable prospect for some, it might not be so great for guests or family members with food allergies.
Our spice and nut tool options are also great if you have friends or family who have celiac disease or a diagnosable gluten intolerance. Grinding nuts, such as almonds or hazelnuts, into a fine powder can give you an excellent wheat flour substitute for homemade baking mixes. Ground nuts can also be useful for coating meat or fish, whether you're making almond-crusted halibut or a pistachio-crusted rack of lamb. If you simply want to be able to open shelled nuts in order to roughly chop them for a recipe or just snack on them whole, we have nutcrackers and other nut tools to help you get the job done.
From cracking up some cloves for an infused hot cider to grinding almonds into a fine, flour-like consistency, our spice tools and nut tools can help make your culinary dreams become a reality. Using specifically designed tools to do things like crack hard-shelled nuts, grind spice blends and infuse wine with mulling spices helps prevent cross-contamination and flavor transfer across different types of tools in your kitchen. Whether you know individuals with food allergies and other dietary restrictions or not, having the right equipment makes a huge difference in your ability to create delicious cuisine.

UPDATE: Walmart hires over 20,000 veterans under new program
Walmart announced exclusively on 40/29 that so far it has hired over 20,000 veterans since the launch of its Welcome Home Commitment on Memorial Day.
It also kicked off its holiday giving with a $2 million donation to Operation Homefront and fisher House to provide toys, meals and lodging to military families in greatest need of support this year. The donation will also help hundreds of active duty service members come home for the holidays.
The donation is in addition to the commitment by the Walmart Foundation to give $20 million through 2015 to help veterans and their families prepare for successful civilian lives through job training, transition support and education.
20,000 Jobs for Veterans
Earlier this year Walmart pledged to offer a job to any honorably discharged veteran within his or her first 12 months off active duty. Since Walmart launched its Welcome Home Commitment on Memorial Day 2013, more than 20,000 veterans have been hired. "We are proud of the progress that has been made to this point, and we applaud other companies that have made their own hiring pledges, including most recently Starbucks, in what truly should be a national effort," said Bill Simon, Walmart U.S. President and CEO and U.S. Navy veteran.
Walmart recruits veterans into positions that best match their skills and professional goals, from immediate jobs in stores and clubs to long-term careers. The company expects its commitment to result in the hiring of more than 100,000 veterans over the next five years.

Had built a hive for my son the night before as well as ordered more equipment for a split earlier THAT SAME DAY! Talk about dumb luck. I haven't had a chance to go in my hive due to my work schedule this weekend but I feel like it came from mine. The cluster was in a ornamental peach tree about 3ft high and 35ft from my existing hive. All seem to be doing well and taking feed.

"AMERICA! @!#$ YEAH! COMING AGAIN, TO SAVE THE MOTHER@!#$IN' DAY YEAH!"The lyrics blasted Luke out of his sleep like trance and onto the dusty floor and reaching for his M495 before he realized where he was. He grumbled and groaned as he lifted himself out of the hammock and stretched his back. Of course some moron with too much time on his hands and an unrestricted connection would find some lame ass early 21st century song to play. Already, it was beginning to cause a monumental headache, which made Luke want to bring out his weapon and shoot the player of the music and then preferably himself, if ONLY to stop the headache. Life in this desert with these idiots was beginning tiresome, if not downright tedious. But of course, who of Sigma Blue would expect a former Federation Army sniper in an Amerikka post outside some s**tty hole in the ground that used to be a town in West Texas? Needless to say, the boys here enjoyed the help he could provide. Why, that army colonel was going to cause all sorts of hell for them and if it was not for a lovely 7.62x51mm entering the colonel's skull right before taking a bite of some nasty meal that was supposed to be a steak, well Luke wouldn't be 25k richer and the AC would have to worry about a mecha raid.Of course, it wouldn't stop the Federation from sending some other useless dreg to do what the former Colonel Joe Wils had failed to do. But that wasn't Luke's problem. Guided by a beep from his commlink, he ambled over to the small table provided for him and tapped a button idely while eyeing the glaring light of a hot sun from outside the tent flap. He would not look forward to walking into that!A glance to his link made him take another, longer gander. A smile slowly crept across his features, one from a man who was used to smiling. A contract for some work up in Alaska would certainly get him out of this hole and far enough away to give him some room to relax. Maybe he could find something up there worth shooting? With another glance, he closed the link after a quick noncommittal reply and packed quickly. There wasn't much to pack. His rifle, while having been lovingly taken care of, would not be able to come along. The clothes though could. What made Luke such a terrific former operative for Sigma Blue was the fact that he was not noticeable. He looked like any other older man approaching his senility, an uncle or grandfather perhaps. Certainly not one of the most feared snipers and now assassin in the world! Nor was he picky on the weaponry that was available; anything with a large caliber and mid-range or long-range scope would work for him. Cold didn't bother him! He would certainly enjoy himself! With that, he skipped a little as he left the blasted hellhole he had been staying in for three months with nary a glance backward!Alaska! Here I come!
"I'm glad we did not fly - I guess they really mean it with the no-fly zone. No warning shots here."Blue approached the broken craft, cautiously looking around."I wonder if these were heading to the arcology, or trying to flee..."(investigation roll 13/d20)
"Someone really did not want them to leave. Let's see why."The Draenei scrounged through the frozen remains, stepping over the rime-covered corpses."They might have some IDs or clearance on them - and let's see if anyone is alive to tell a tale, or if there's any records of what Charlie-Foxtrot went on in the arco.

Shooting in Vidor
One man is in critical condition after a shooting in Vidor.
On Thursday, Jan. 31 at approximately 1:15 a.m., the Orange County Sheriff's Office received a call concerning a shooting in the 2900 block of FM 1131 in Vidor.

Open for business
The faculty senate gave their approval on Monday, April 5, 2010 for the newest Calvin center to open for business—literally, in this case.
The Calvin Center for Innovation in Business is officially up and running; and the folks who are behind this startup are hoping that the center will raise the level of business education and scholarship at Calvin. "We want Calvin to be one of the top schools in the nation to study business," said Calvin president Gaylen Byker, "and the center is a big part of that."
The new center has outlined three broad goals:
to foster educational excellence,
to promote experiential learning,
and to engage with broader business communities.
Pursuant to those goals, the center will fund faculty scholarship and student research projects, sponsor conferences on business-related themes and work at developing ties to various business entities in the local area and beyond.
The importance of practice
"I always liken teaching business to teaching medicine," said Calvin business professor Bob Eames, the first director of the Calvin Center for Innovation in Business. "It's a practice. It's something you do that demands application of your knowledge. I believe it's one of those things where if you're going to teach it, it really helps to have some experience doing it."
Because of that ethos, he continued, Calvin's business professors have typically been practitioners--PhD's, CPA's and MBA's who came to Calvin with a lot of experience in business but not much, if any, experience in scholarship. (Eames himself is an MBA with a background in industry at Steelcase and other companies.) Consequently, although business is one of Calvin's top majors, it was a major taught with a fairly large number of adjuncts. The department saw a lot of faculty turnover. Eames hopes the new center will attract faculty to the business department who are top scholars as well as top teachers. "We've got to up our game," agreed business professor Leonard Van Drunen, who served on the task force that revised the business major and designed the new center.
Another way the center will improve the quality business of education at Calvin is to provide experiential learning (internships and project-based learning) for business students. In the seven years he's taught at Calvin, Eames has partnered his students with companies such as Bissell, Meijer and Steelcase on real-world business problems. One student team, for example, is currently doing ethnographic research on how cleaning crews use their tools as a way to design better "stick products" (brooms and mops). As director of the center, Eames hopes to create more of these project-based learning opportunities and internships for Calvin's business students.
Business concentrations
Key to all of these endeavors is engagement with broader communities of business. "What we really need is people in the business community aware of and supportive of our program," Van Drunen said. The center's creators agree that the Calvin's newly revamped business major (and the existing accounting major) are two more good partners to the Center for Innovation and Excellence in Business. The new curriculum requires students to concentrate in one area of business study: marketing, operations, human resources, finance or small business. This specialization is important to prepare students for the job market, Van Drunen said. "There are no general business jobs," he emphasized. "There are jobs in marketing, operations, human resources, finance or small business. We're helping our students think that way."
At the same time, the new business major helps students to anchor their business education in the broader liberal arts context. The business and related course requirements of the major have been scaled back from 52 to 46 credit hours, allowing students to take classes in other disciplines.
Well-rounded majors
"I believe that if a student does a good job mixing the business major and the liberal arts with hands-on experience and mentoring that they will do better in the long run than the graduate who spends four years on a university campus simply specializing in business," Byker said. "At Calvin we will now be able to better provide those opportunities that we believe will equip our grads to make a difference in God's Kingdom for the long haul."
Eames is eager to see the center functioning in support of that vision. And he's grateful that the center, which officially launches in the fall, will not rely on university funding. "Donors were eager to dig deeper to fund this over and above their already generous support of the university," he said. Meantime, Eames is ready to get to work: "The first thing I've got to do is find 20 new projects for our capstone class," he said.

Wet Seal to pay $7.5m in discrimination lawsuit
Fashion retailer Wet Seal Inc. agreed to pay $7.5 million to settle a racial discrimination lawsuit filed by a Pennsylvania resident who claimed the retailer discriminated against African-American employees because they did not fit the company's brand image.
Nicole Cogdell, of Chester, Pa., was the lead plaintiff in a class-action suit filed last summer in federal court. Joining Cogdell in the lawsuit were Kai Hawkins and Myriam Saint-Hilaire, also of Pennsylvania.
At least $5.58 million of the damages will go to current and former African-American managers. The settlement was announced Thursday by Wet Seal and the NAACP.
The lawsuit alleged former Wet Seal executives denied equal pay and promotion opportunities or terminated African-American store managers nationwide.
Cogdell, a community liaison to Chester Mayor John Linder, issued a statement through the NACCP Legal Defense and Educational Fund.
"Being targeted for termination from a job I loved because of my race was a nightmare," Cogdell said in the statement. "It was important for me to be a force for change, but I could not have done it without the support of other employees who spoke out against discrimination. Wet Seal has now committed to strong, fair policies because we took a stand. I hope these changes will create opportunities for all deserving employees, regardless of their race."
In December, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission issued a determination that former Wet Seal executives racially discriminated against Cogdell, who formerly worked at the chain's King of Prussia, Pa., location. The EEOC report said Wet Seal corporate managers openly stated they wanted employees who had "the Armani look, were white, had blue eyes, thin and blond in order to be profitable."
Cogdell resigned from Wet Seal in 2009 after Barbara Bachman, the company's former senior vice president of operations, visited Cogdell's store in King of Prussia.
The EEOC corroborated Cogdell's claim that Bachman was more concerned with the racial makeup of the staff than its performance during her visit, citing an email Bachman sent after visiting stores in the Maryland and Philadelphia markets. The email said, "Store teams -- need diversity African-Americans dominate -- huge issue."
Regarding the King of Prussia store managed by Cogdell, Bachman wrote, "Store manager is not right for this store -- she has been in this store for a month!"
Bachman said during a deposition that she wrote the memo "to stress the importance of having diversity at all stores," but the commission's report said "Bachman never expressed diversity concerns in stores with a predominantly white sales force."
Cogdell claimed in the lawsuit that she initially was dismissed after complaining to human resources about Bachman's email and then transferred to the company's Springfield, Pa., location when she filed a complaint with the EEOC. When she left the King of Prussia location, the store ranked eighth in revenue among the company's 500-plus locations.
Within the last year, Wet Seal has replaced its board and hired John D. Goodman as its chief executive officer. The company, headquartered in Foothill Ranch, Calif., operates 464 Wet Seal stores and 62 Arden B stores in 47 states and Puerto Rico.
Wet Seal released a statement calling the settlement a "no-fault resolution" in which the company's new leadership approached the plaintiffs to collaborate in "redefining the company and positioning it for success."
"We appreciate the insights we have gained from plaintiffs' counsel and the EEOC for our best-practices initiatives," Goodman said in the statement. "We are pleased to put this matter behind us as we continue to be committed to nondiscriminatory employment practices that create a welcome environment for people of all backgrounds."
The settlement agreement outlines a series of initiatives designed to ensure diversity, including the maintenance of a Diversity and Inclusion Council. The settlement still must be approved in federal court.
The plaintiffs were represented by the NACCP Legal Defense and Educational Fund; Lewis, Feinberg, Lee, Renaker and Jackson, a law firm based in Oakland, Calif., and Gallagher, Schoenfeld, Surkin, Chupein and DeMis, a firm based in Media, Pa.
Cogdell first worked for Wet Seal from September 2002 to January 2003 at the Granite Run Mall in Media, Pa., before resigning for "family reasons." She was rehired in November 2008 and worked at the Springfield Mall store until being transferred to King of Prussia on Jan. 2, 2009.
Hawkins worked as a manager at locations at The Gallery Mall in Philadelphia and the Cherry Hill Mall in New Jersey. Saint-Hilaire was an assistant manager at the King of Prussia store.

Justin Bieber's Mom Has a Very Important Message for Fansby Michelle McGahan | PopCrush
Pattie Mallette has a message for Justin Bieber's beloved fans: Quit telling her that her son turns you on. Because yeah, that's just awkward.
Mallette took to Twitter kindly inform Beliebers of her new rule, laying down the law in a firm but light-hearted tweet, writing:
Dear Sweet Beliebers, Please stop telling me my son makes you horny. Its NOT something a mom wants to hear. Love Mom #ThingsYouDontTellMom
— Pattie Mallette (@pattiemallette) July 12, 2014
While we fully approve of Mallette's message and spot-on hashtag (seriously, how cringe-worthy must it be for her to read some of those X-rated tweets?) it must be even more awkward for her to see some of the selfies that Bieber himself posts, including this practically naked one and countless other sexy shirtless pics.
When you're the mom of arguably one of the biggest pop stars in the world, we guess there's no hiding from some pretty awkward moments. Of course, that doesn't mean she can't try — and we don't blame her!
Look Away, Pattie! See Justin Bieber + More Shirtless Celeb Hotties

History of The English Bible commences with the first hand-written English language Bible manuscripts of the complete Bible produced by John Wycliffe.
John Wycliffe, John Hus, The Lollards, and Roman Catholic Church
AD 1382 The first hand-written English language Bible manuscripts of the complete Bible were produced by John Wycliffe (1320-1384), an Oxford professor, scholar, and theologian. Wycliffe, (also spelled 'Wycliff' and 'Wyclif'), was well-known throughout Europe for his opposition to the teaching of the Roman Catholic Church, which he believed to be contrary to the Bible. With the help of his followers, called the Lollards, and his assistant Purvey, and many other faithful scribes, Wycliffe produced dozens of English language manuscript copies of the scriptures. They were translated out of the Latin Vulgate, which was the only source text available to Wycliffe. John Wycliffe is considered the main precursor of the Protestant Reformation. The Pope was so infuriated by his teachings and his translation of the Bible into English, that 44 years after Wycliffe had died, he ordered the bones to be dug-up, crushed, and scattered in the river!
One of Wycliffe's followers, John Hus, actively promoted Wycliffe's ideas: that people should be permitted to read the Bible in their own language, and they should oppose the tyranny of the Roman Catholic Church that threatened anyone possessing a Non-Latin Bible with execution. In Constance on July 6, 1415, having been condemned by the Council of Constance in an unfair trial, Hus fell upon his knees, and with a low voice he asked God to forgive all his enemies, and declared, "God is my witness that I have never taught that of which I have been accused by false witnesses. In the truth of the Gospel which I have written, taught, and preached, I will die today with gladness."
Then followed his degradation; he was enrobed in priestly vestments and again asked to recant; again he refused. With curses, his ornaments were taken from him, his priestly tonsure was destroyed, and sentence was pronounced that the Church had deprived him of all rights and delivered him to the secular powers whereupon he was burned at the stake with Wycliffe's manuscript Bibles used as kindling for the fire. The last words of John Hus were "In 100 years, God will raise up a man whose calls for reform cannot be suppressed." Almost exactly 100 years later, in 1517, Martin Luther nailed his famous 95 Theses of Contention (a list of 95 issues of heretical theology and crimes of the Roman Catholic Church) into the church door at Wittenberg. Thus, the prophecy of Hus had come true! Martin Luther went on to be the first man to print the Bible in the German language. Foxe's Book of Martyrs records that in that same year, 1517, seven people were burned at the stake by the Roman Catholic Church for the crime of teaching their children to say the Lord's Prayer in English rather than Latin.
Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing press in the 1450's, and the first book to ever be printed was a Latin language Bible, printed in Mainz, Germany. Gutenberg's Bibles were surprisingly beautiful, as each leaf Gutenberg printed was later colourfully hand-illuminated. Ironically, though he had created what many believe to be the most important invention in history, Gutenberg was a victim of unscrupulous business associates who took control of his business and left him in poverty.
Nevertheless, the invention of the movable-type printing press meant that Bibles and books could finally be effectively produced in large quantities in a short period of time. This was essential to the success of the Reformation – delivering the people from heretical theology and doctrine.
In the 1490's, another Oxford professor, and the personal physician to King Henry: the 7th and the 8th, Thomas Linacre, decided to learn Greek. After reading the Gospels in Greek, and comparing it to the Latin Vulgate, he wrote in his diary, "Either this (the original Greek) is not the Gospel, or we are not Christians."
The Latin had become so corrupt that it no longer even preserved the message of the Gospel, yet the Church still threatened to kill anyone who read the scripture in any language other than Latin, though Latin was not an original language of the scriptures. (Hebrew and Greek is the original language of the scriptures).
In 1496, John Colet, another Oxford professor, and the son of the Mayor of London, started reading the New Testament in Greek and translating it into English for his students at Oxford, and later for the public at Saint Paul's Cathedral in London. The people were so hungry to hear the Word of God in a language they could understand, that within six months there were 20,000 people packed in the church and at least that many outside trying to get in! (Sadly, the enormous and beautiful Saint Paul's Cathedral today: typical Sunday morning worship attendance is only around 200 people and mostly tourists). Fortunately for Colet, he was a powerful man with friends in high places, so he amazingly managed to avoid execution.
William Tyndale (1494-1536) was the Captain of the Army of Reformers, and was their spiritual leader. Tyndale holds the distinction of being the first man to ever print the New Testament in the English language taking advantage of Gutenberg's movable-type press. Tyndale was a true scholar and a genius having received his Masters degree in 1515 at the age of twenty-one. He was so fluent in eight languages; Hebrew, Greek, Latin, Spanish, French, Italian, English, and German, that it was said one would think any one of them to be his native tongue. He is frequently referred to as the 'Architect of the English Language,' (even more so than William Shakespeare) as so many of the phrases Tyndale coined are still in our language today.
A clergyman hopelessly entrenched in Roman Catholic dogma once taunted Tyndale with the statement, "We are better to be without God's laws than the Pope's." Tyndale was infuriated by Roman Catholic heresies, and he replied, "I defy the Pope and all his laws. If God spare my life ere many years, I will cause the boy that drives the plow to know more of the scriptures than you!"
The authorities banned Tyndale's translation. A friend, Philips, who was the agent either of Henry VIII, or of English ecclesiastics, or possibly both, betrayed Tyndale. Tyndale was arrested and tried for heresy and treason in a ridiculously unfair trial, and convicted. Tyndale was strangled and burnt at the stake in the prison yard on October 6, 1536 – two years after the Church of England (Anglican Church) had been founded. His last words were, "Lord, open the King of England's eyes."
The Church of England was founded in 1534 when the Parliament of England declared King Henry VIII the head of the church, not the Pope (Act of Supremacy).
Note: Title of 'Pope' usage commenced 607 AD.
The Lord Jesus Christ has always been the Head of His Church for Christ did not die for the Pope to be glorified
The Roman Catholic Church placed the Bible on the index of forbidden books in 1229 AD.
Canon 14: "We prohibit also that the laity should be permitted to have the books of the Old or New Testament; unless anyone from motive of devotion should wish to have the Psalter or the Breviary for divine offices or the hours of the blessed Virgin; but we most strictly forbid their having any translation of these books."
John Wycliffe said, "The Bible is for the government of the people, by the people and for the people."

Po Hang class corvettes (photo : Chosun)
Po Hang Retires To The Tropics
South Korea is donating one of its recently retired Po Hang class corvettes to the Philippines Navy. The Po Hangs are 1,200 ton warships that first entered service in 1984. Since then 24 have been built. Each is armed with four Harpoon anti-ship missiles, one 76mm cannon; two twin 40mm automatic cannon, six torpedo tubes and twelve depth charges. The crew of 95 also operates radar and sonar. Top speed is 59 kilometers an hour. Two Po Hangs have been retired so far, and one was sunk by a North Korean torpedo last year.
The Philippines is an island nation, with 7,100 islands to defend. Long crippled by corruption and bad government, the Philippines have never had much money to spend on the military (or anything else.) Wealthier nations have found it good diplomacy to donate military equipment to the Philippines. The Filipinos appreciate it; because donated military gear is something the thieving politicians have a hard time stealing.
