It turned out that there were two fires, a small one just over one hundred yards or so from the station and a much more extensive one just to the west of the gates on the Sand Rodden and between the track and Blackrock Strand. A stiffish breeze from the east was slowly carrying the fire through the whins and grass on the dunes.
Five fire tenders arrived and one of them had reversed down the Sand Rodden as far as the track gates. I'm told that the fire was reported about 2:40pm and the first of the tenders was there by 3pm. The firefighters didn't have a key to lower the bollards; I understand one was eventually delivered by a member of the railway staff about 3:40pm just before I'd arrived. Had there been no obstruction the tender might have been able to drive down the Sand Rodden instead of reversing and turn in the small car park below the crossing gates.
The bollards were put in place last year by Moyle District Council but it seems that they hadn't got around to supplying the essential services with the requisite keys. The firefighters had attended an earlier fire near the same spot just a few weeks ago and walked down the track from the railway station.
A local told me told me that there had been another fire earlier today a few hundred yards from the Bushmills end of the track but it turned out to be just a small stretch of grass beside the track.
The train continued to run as the undergrowth smouldered and burned and the smoke spiralled up into the sky. The fire seems to have begun whilst Shane, the steam engine, was pulling the carriages but it was Rory, the diesel engine, that did the 4pm run from the station. The train leaves the station on the hour and Bushmills on the half-hour.
Let's hope the authorities get these problems resolved just in case there is a much more serious incident where lives are at risk.
The issue was raised at a meeting of Moyle District Council on Monday, May 19, by local Councillors McConaghy and Graham. Apparently council officials were unable to say who'd been issued with keys or who had provided the key on Sunday.
At the Council Meeting, Price McConaghy said there was an issue about access to the area as a bollard blocks a pathway.
The councillor said it was fortunate no lives were in danger but he said if there was an accident at sea emerency services could be restricted by the bollard.
BALLYMONEY TIMES, May 21, 2008
A spokesman for Northern Ireland Fire and Rescue Service said: "Firefighters have tackled a small gorse fire in the Portballintrae area*.*Perhaps this was the earlier reported fire near the Bushmills end of the track.
"The fire broke out at 1.50pm on Sunday, May 18. One appliance from Portrush attended the scene, using beaters to extinguish the flame.
THE CHRONICLE, May 22, 2008
A friend of mine last autumn was struck by the number of private signs that he spotted in a stroll around the Giants Causeway hinterland. Perhaps there's a conflict between the desire for privacy and the need for public safety and local convenience.
I see no reason why the bollards should not be removed. If there is a problem with rail safety then a safer option to deal with it should be adopted.
I've had another look at the photos and I've spotted another safety issue, the failure to close the crossing gate to road traffic coming from the direction of Runkerry House as the train approaches the station. Photographic evidence indicates that this gate has been left open on a number of occasions during the past year as the train has passed over the crossing.
I'm told that David Laing, a previous manager of the railway, maintained a fire tender in a state of readiness in the station sheds in case of fire and hauled it to the scene of an outbreak using a diesel engine.
Is that tender still on the premises? Is it ready to be taken promptly to the site of a fire? If it is, why wasn't the Sunday service brought to a halt and why weren't all the resources deployed to tackle the various fires that had broken out along the side of the track?
In light of the more recent fire on Friday, May 23, and the discovery of a large piece of clinker and what appear to be parts of metal plating on the track. Perhaps the responsible railway inspectorate officials need to take a look at the safety of rolling stock, especially engine Shane, and other parts of the operating system. Shane was formerly fuelled by peat but coal is used now. Could there be a problem with the ash box?
I received an email today that sheds some new light on the end of April fire by the 50p hut:
Oh, yes, we saw it pass by at least 3 times before the fire. We did not recognize that it was a train at first, but then we realized it was a train. Maybe we should have had a ride on it. But then we might have been involved in the fire!
A principal inspector from the Health and Safety Executive has been appointed to examine a range of issues raised in this blog and elsewhere.
A number of complaints have been raised about the quality of coal being used to fuel the steam engine. The smoke has become much blacker and washing has had to be relaundered after having been splattered with particles of soot and exposed to obnoxious odours.
It was all go on the railway this afternoon, Thursday June 12.
Shane, the blue steam engine, was hauling empty carriages and Rory, the diesel, was rumbling up and down the track. There was a fire tender filling up at a hydrant on the Ballaghmore Road and I wondered, "Surely not another fire".
As we headed for the golf club lane, firemen could be seen directing their hoses onto a trackside fire below the golf course, not far from another recent outbreak. The damaged pedestrian crossing had been repaired but the decking looked higher than it should be. Perhaps that was why the protective angle-iron strip had been knocked off and the metal item in the sketch left lying between the tracks.
There were an additional two tenders on the path across the tracks from the fire and the firefighters had just about extinguished the flames. It's just as well the three vehicles were not needed for more important work elsewhere. I've lost count of the number of tenders that have been to these fires in the past few weeks.
The plates linking the rails had recently received a coating of oil - something a friend noted had not been seen for ages!!

Oracle claims dozens of customers for Unbreakable Linux
Oracle is touting a list of 26 customers siding with it for Linux support. But, on further review, only one has actually dumped Red Hat Linux completely.
Oracle Corp. executives have finally revealed the names of 26 enterprise-class customers that have gone with that company for their Red Hat Linux support needs. However, the number of customers in that list doing wholesale migrations to Oracle's brand of Linux is much smaller.
Only the International House of Pancakes is on the record saying Oracle Enterprise Linux completely replaced Red Hat in its data center. In a statement, IHOP CTO Patrick Piccininno said the switch from Red Hat to Oracle Enterprise Linux "couldn't have been easier."
Yahoo was previously on the Red Hat-to-Oracle Linux migration list, but that migration was later revealed to be only a partial migration by Yahoo executives. Monica Kumar, Oracle vice president of open source product marketing, defended Oracle's actions and said Oracle Linux had replaced RHEL on some of Yahoo's servers and could be considered an example of displacement.
"This is about terminology. We believe we have displaced Red Hat in many implementations," Kumar said. "Many of the customers that have come to Oracle for Linux support are Red Hat customers, and to us that is displacement." Kumar conceded this meant Oracle was not displacing Red Hat completely in the new list of 26 customers.
More significantly, Oracle is now supporting Linux deployments that are not running Oracle applications, Kumar said. Of the 10 customers quoted by Oracle in a press release, only four were using Oracle software on Linux.
Oracle traction with each renewal cycle
But even though the number of full-fledged Red-Hat-to-Oracle Linux migrations was light in this series of Oracle customer wins, The 451 Group's senior analyst Raven Zachary expects that to change soon. "The primary candidates for early adoption are existing Oracle customers that are deploying Oracle databases on Red Hat Linux and Red Hat customers that are dissatisfied with Red Hat's pricing or service," Zachary said.
Over time, Zachary expects Oracle to expand beyond these early adopter categories.
"The other point to remember is that the customer acquisition opportunities are going to be tied to the Red Hat contract renewal cycle," he said. "We're only a few months into the offering, and I suspect that customers will be testing out Oracle's support offering on a set of servers before considering a full replacement of Red Hat."
Red Hat pricing
The first customers to buy support from Oracle for their Linux server deployments did so in December at the conclusion of a 90-day free trial, said Oracle's Kumar.
Around that time, a research report from Pacific Crest Securities Inc. showed that approximately 64% of Red Hat customers said a support discount was a "very important" part of the decision-making process when evaluating their relationship with Red Hat.
When customers were asked what kind of discount Red Hat would have to provide to keep their business, one-third said they would need an Oracle-like discount of 50% to 74%. Thirty-seven percent of Red Hat customers said they wanted a discount of 25% to 49%, and 27% said a cut in costs from 1% to 24% would be adequate.
Zachary has speculated that Red Hat's new one-page SLA could be the beginning of a revamp in support and pricing. During Red Hat's recent quarterly earnings, however, CEO Matthew Szulik said the company has no plans to change its pricing in response to the Oracle Linux.
Kumar said she expects Oracle to have successfully cloned and tested RHEL 5 "in a few weeks." Oracle is currently testing its next release, Oracle Enterprise Linux 5, using real-world customer workloads as well as its own internal IT workloads. Once that is done, customers will be able to deploy Oracle Enterprise Linux 5 and get enterprise-quality support from Oracle through the Unbreakable Linux Support Program, she said.

Hawaiiweddingsandevents needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 65 designs submitted by 12 freelance designers.
Destination wedding specialist
Aloha, I am a certified professional event planner in Hawaii, my company is called Hawaii Weddings and Events. You can read the "about us" page on our website http://www.hawaiiweddingsandevents.com to get more insight into my background and the professionalism of our company. I get alot of positive feedback on my website as well as my business card (copy is attached), but have never gotten around to having an official "logo" for my business which will make 5 years in March.
my market is predominantly destination weddings (70%, with 30% of that from the Bay Area, but I do other types of events as well so I don't want anything that is specifically wedding related.
Age demographics is mostly 26-34 years old, but sometimes younger or older.
I like my current "picture" that is attached, but as you can see the words "Hawaii Weddings and Events" is way to the write and often gets cut off.
I like the Franklin Bold Gothic (I believe that is what it is) used for Hawaii Weddings and Events and the style that it is written in.
My company tag line is "Amazing, Fun and Stress-Free" that does not need to be used in logo.
The "thai table picture" is from an award winning event that I did and my company is known by that picture.
Two things
1) I envision a logo for Hawaii Weddings and Events (same type of style but with some type of image (green cymbidium was one thought as it is my favorite flower) that can be used for advertising, stationary, etc.
2) I would like my current "picture" image redone so that the words are further to the left and it doesn't get cut off.

ROCHESTER — The parents of a journalist who has been missing in Syria since he was kidnapped more than a month ago are pleading for his captors to contact them.
At a news conference outside their home Thursday, John and Diane Foley said they are "gravely concerned" about the health, welfare and safety of their son James, a freelance journalist who was covering the Syrian conflict.
The family announced Wednesday that James Foley was kidnapped in northwest Syria by unknown gunmen on Thanksgiving Day. The family appealed to those holding Foley to contact them "so we can work together toward his release."
Foley's parents reiterated that message Thursday, saying their son is an "objective reporter" who decided to cover the conflict in Syria because he is passionate about telling the stories of people in war-torn areas.
"I ask his captors for their compassion and for James' quick release," Foley's father said, speaking outside the family's home on Victoria Circle, a white building with green shutters and wreaths in the windows.
Noel Clay, a spokesman for the U.S. State Department, said federal officials are aware of Foley's disappearance, and are working through the Czech Republic to try to gather information on his whereabouts.
The Czech Republic serves as the "protecting power" for the United States in Syria, where the country does not have diplomatic relations.
"Obviously, we're concerned about this journalist's safety and well-being, but because of privacy concerns, we have nothing further to add at this time," Clay said.
Foley, 39, has worked in a number of conflict zones around the Middle East, including Syria, Libya and Iraq.
While covering the hostilities in Libya, Foley and other journalists were taken captive by forces loyal to the government and later released.
Most recently, Foley was contributing videos to Agence France-Press while in Syria.
Foley grew up in Wolfeboro and graduated from Kingswood Regional High School in 1990. He later earned an undergraduate degree in history and graduate degree in journalism.
The U.S. State Department is currently aware of at least two U.S. journalists who are missing in Syria: Foley and freelancer Austin Tice.
Twenty-eight journalists were killed in Syria in 2012, prompting the Committee to Protect Journalists to name Syria the most dangerous country in the world to work in last year.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Is your spouse faking it?
A new sex survey from Indiana University released earlier this week says that women are faking satisfaction in the bedroom more often than men realize. According to the results, 85% of men say that their latest partner had a orgasm, but only 64% of women concurred. That's a 21-point difference.
Talk about a gender gap.
Makes me wonder how many people are faking satisfaction at the dinner table, too.
Think about the latest meal you made for your family. Did they tell you it was delicious?
Do you believe them?
Just asking.

English-language 'Poppy Hill' carries on Ghibli tradition
Reel Life mini-review: "From Up on Poppy Hill"
Goro Miyazaki's "From Up on Poppy Hill" lacks a bit of the magic of the works of his famous filmmaking father Hayao Miyazaki.
That's OK. "Poppy Hill" continues the Miyazaki tradition of eye-popping, handcrafted animated visuals bursting with luminous colors, impressionist textures and careful compositions. What's not to love?
Besides, this English version of "Poppy Hill" is directed by Oscar-winning Elmhurst native (and York Community High School grad) Gary Rydstrom, backed by an impressive vocal cast: Gillian Anderson, Christina Hendricks, Chris Noth, Jamie Lee Curtis, Bruce Dern, Beau Bridges and director Ron Howard (as the philosophy club president).
Set in 1963 Japan, "Poppy Hill" eschews fantasy for nostalgic realism and makes an unsubtle pitch for preserving the past as the foundation for the future.
Teenage Umi (Sarah Bolger, leading the English cast) goes to school where the student body rallies to save a dilapidated "Animal House"-style club house called the "Latin Quarter," under threat of demolition.
Umi raises nautical flags every morning to the passing ships to remember her Korean War hero father, killed at sea. A classmate named Shun (Anton Yelchin) crushes on her. A subsequent affair of the heart heads into complications that not even Luke and Leia could fathom.
Had "Poppy Hill" been a live-action movie, its soap operatic plot and stodgy, romantic view of clutching on to the "old" might have rendered it a simplistic experience. Backed by the animated artistry of Japan's famed Studio Ghibli, here, the everyday transforms into the amazingly graceful.
"Up on Poppy Hill" opens at the Century Centre in Chicago. Rated PG. 91 minutes. ★ ★ ★ ½

Reel Life mini-review: "Family Weekend"
Benjamin Epps' domestic comedy "Family Weekend" plays like a smartly executed "After School Special" with an extra dash of heart to go along with budding romance and medical marijuana added to spice things up.
Charismatic young actress Olesya Rulin plays Emily, an obsessed, 16-year-old high school rope-skipping champion who finally reaches the end of her, uh, rope with her distant, unengaged parents (Matthew Modine and comedian Kristin Chenoweth in stunning glam mode).
Tired of being ignored, Emily gives Mom and Dad knockout drops, ties them to chairs, then holds them hostage until they become good, attentive parents to their family once again.
"Family Weekend" is just as simpy as its plot sounds, but under Alabama-born director Epps, making his feature directing debut, this comedy skips along on good intentions with actors who put more into the characters than they deserve.
We get a cute romantic subplot. Idiotic encounters with the cops. A sympathetic grandmother played by Shirley Jones. A ridiculous ending that scrambles for pseudo happiness. As after school specials go, this weekend isn't necessarily lost.
"Family Weekend" opens at the Logan Theater in Chicago. Rated R for drug use and sexual situations. 96 minutes. ★ ★ ½
Reel Life mini-review: "Mental"
P.J. Hogan cleverly recreates the beginning of "The Sound of Music" in an Australian backyard at the start of the tone-deaf "Mental," suggesting this movie will be a lighthearted comic romp.
That expectation changes quickly when Hogan's screenplay dives into a blackly comic treatment of mental illness and domestic abuse that simply refuses to be all that funny.
Hogan's clammy, cold and uncomfortable comedy has more personalities than star Toni Collette did in her series "The United States of Tara." This movie doesn't like most of its characters, especially selfish adults and ridiculous, cartoonish suburbanites. It plays nicer with the five sibling girls, but they're still iffy.
In a small Australian town, skeezy, sleazy Mayor Barry Moochmore (Anthony LaPaglia) picks up a homeless woman, Shaz (Collette), from the streets and makes her a nanny for his five daughters whose names he can't bother to remember.
The mayor doesn't care that the knife-and-gun-toting Shaz looks like a hooker/addict/cult member. He needs someone to take care of his kids because his wife Shirley (Rebecca Gibney) has been committed after flipping her lid and prancing around the neighborhood while singing numbers from "The Sound of Music."
As we discover, Shirley would not have married the mayor if he hadn't impregnated her during a date rape. His lovely daughters, led by Coral (Lily Sullivan), still fantasize about having dear old Dad back home, despite being severely damaged by his neglect and Mom's mental illness.
Secrets unfold, grossly off-putting sight gags pump up the ick factor, and an uninspired chase scene ensues. Then, a slightly desperate "Sound of Music" finale number attempts to put joyful polish on a sadly scuffed-up story.
"Mental" opens at the 600 North Michigan Theaters, Chicago. Not rated, but for mature audiences. 116 minutes. ★ ½
Reel Life mini-review: "Vanishing Waves"
Kristina Buožyte's Lithuanian science fiction drama "Vanishing Waves" arranges a literal meeting of the minds between its two protagonists. Lukas (Marius Jampolskis), a research assistant, is part of a sensory deprivation experiment to meld his consciousness with that of a comatose accident victim named Aurora (Jurga Jutaite) to see if her brain is still functioning.
They find each other in a Ken Russell-esque dream world of widescreen eroticism and cinematic showmanship, with passionately writhing bodies bathed in sensuous illumination and captured by floating cameras that rush toward them, float over them, dart around them.
As we soon discover, "Vanishing Waves" has more in common with X-rated films "Night Trips" and "Night Dreams" than Russell's "Altered States."
Lukas keeps his mental liasions secret from the researchers. He drops all ethical pretenses about helping science and the coma victim so he can enjoy guilt-free sex with a perfect dream partner without fear of disease, pregnancy and charges of infidelity.
Buožyte, marking her second feature (her first was 2008's "The Collectress"), creates a quietly spectacular dream world (call it "ContraCeption") complemented by Peter von Poehl's moody, pulsating score and Feliksas Abrukausksas' Kubrickian-quality camera work.
Yet, stripped down to its essence, isn't this movie an artsy, high-end reinvention of the ultimate male teen sex fantasy?
"Vanishing Waves" opens at the Patio Theater in Chicago. Not rated, but recommended for adults only. 124 minutes. ★ ★ ½

The Culture Wars are mostly over, and the sexual revolutionaries have won. But they are not proclaiming total victory. They want a gay president in the White House, in order to complete Barack Hussein Obama's "fundamental transformation" of America. With their eyes on the prize, they want to mandate through executive order a risky HIV/AIDS vaccine. But such a vaccine could backfire and spread the disease to more people.
The public health establishment, supported by the medical journals, has renewed its call for the need for more gun research to be conducted by the CDC and funded by taxpayers. In other words, public health researchers want more taxpayer' money to tell us that guns are a disease that must be eradicated. But as many critics have pointed out, including this author, gun violence does not fit the public health model of the disease-vector-host interaction.
With all the furor over illegal immigration a little history lesson might be in order. As you are probably aware, President Donald Trump has taken another bite out of the illegal immigration apple, I think it's his third. First he signed an executive order to build a border wall that's estimated to cost $21.6 billion. Mexico has already told him it's not paying for it so Trump has threatened our southern neighbor with other measures. Trump has also said he wants to hire 15,000 more Border Patrol officers and Immigration and Custom Enforcement agents.

The world owes all its onward impulses to men ill at ease.
The happy man inevitably confines himself within ancient limits.

On Managed Care And Cutting-Edge Technology
Many Americans, even physicians, are unaware that the National Research Council, which is an arm of the National Academy of Sciences, proclaimed in February 1993 that "the AIDS epidemic will have little impact on the lives of most Americans or the way society functions." Moreover, the CDC has released the year-end AIDS figures for 1992 which show that "the overall cases increased only 3.5% from the year before, less than the 5% increase from 1990-1991." Furthermore, as recently reported by National Review乐动体育APP, the CDC enunciated that it was revising downward its estimate of future AIDS
乐动体育APPEvidence mounts that Jared Loughner, the 22-year-old disturbed individual accused of the attempted assassination of blue dog, conservative Democrat, U.S Representative Gabrielle Giffords; the cold-blooded killing of five other citizens, including an innocent 9-year-old student and a conservative judge; and the wounding of fourteen people --- should have been under psychiatric treatment.
乐动体育APPA prominent member of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons has refuted key details of a study published recently by the Violence Policy Center, in which researchers concluded that women were not safer if they used a handgun for self-defense.
Thanksgiving is a uniquely American holiday. If you don't feel particularly thankful this year, go to the bookstore and buy Dr. Miguel A. Faria, Jr.'s insightful and autobiographical book, Cuba in Revolution: Escape from a Lost Paradise. You will become educated about Cuba, you will learn about America, and you will become very thankful.
乐动体育APPIn 1997, House Minority Leader Richard Gephardt, D-Mo., spoke candidly to Time magazine regarding McCain-Feingold campaign finance reform legislation. The Democrat admitted, "What we have is two important values in direct conflict: freedom of speech and our desire for healthy campaigns in a healthy democracy. … You can't have both."
Writer's note: Difficult as it is to be critical of a friend and ally on the war on terror, Great Britain has instituted a cruel and unjust gun-control policy, a worsening evil, upon her law-abiding citizens that needs correcting. The title of this essay comes from the seemingly paradoxical unrelenting tide of thievery and burglaries that has swept Great Britain, and was so dubbed by the London Sunday Times in 1998.
乐动体育APPThank you for your kind introduction. It's my pleasure to have the opportunity to address this distinguished audience of physician colleagues and fellow scientists in Doctors for Disaster Preparedness (DDP). I want to talk about the issue of scientific integrity in public health and firearm research. This is a topic like many others in which you have only heard one side of the story.
The AMA/CDC/NCIPC Propaganda Axis
Although I have not practiced neurosurgery for many years, I have kept abreast of health care policy and advances in medicine. Since my retirement I founded and edited a medical journal, served on the editorial board of another international surgical neurology peer-reviewed journal, and at the request of President George W. Bush I served in the Injury Research Grant Review Committee of the CDC in Atlanta. I trained at the premier Georgia trauma center, Grady Memorial Hospital, under the auspices of Emory University, and I have published on this subject.
Kudos for The Telegraph report [07/02/07] describing the current tax situation in Bibb County that may saddle county taxpayers with thousands of dollars in penalties and tax arrears.
乐动体育APPNow we read that Bibb County Chief Appraiser, Jim Davis, is looking for a private consulting firm with an incredible price tag of $2.5 million to do another property tax assessment in Bibb County.
乐动体育APPPeople of the decaying Roman Empire enjoyed their peace and prosperity too much to quibble over losing a few liberties in exchange for security, Dr. Miguel A. Faria. Jr. said Monday.
乐动体育APPSpeaking at the monthly meeting of the Republican Women of Bibb County, Faria said the United States appears headed down the same path. Moral decay runs rampant through society, and people aren't coming forward to express outrage over moral and ethical lapses, such as the ones underscored in the recent accusations against President Clinton.
乐动体育APPThe column last Thursday by a trial lawyer about suing gun manufacturers is greatly self-serving.
If Don C. Keenan wants to help America's children, he should immediately direct his foundation to sponsor nationwide gun safety programs in schools, as we have done very successfully in Bibb County, rather than propose yet another way for trial lawyers to enrich themselves in the name of conducting a moral pseudo-crusade for the children.
In the Fall 2001 issue of the AANS Bulletin, "A Profession at Risk---The Medical Liability Crisis," the editors brought forth the momentous issue of spiraling medical liability for neurosurgeons.
乐动体育APPIndeed, neurosurgery has been a profession at risk for quite some time, and many American neurosurgeons are quitting early rather than becoming grist for the trial lawyers' mill. This medical liability problem is number one for U.S. neurosurgeons and the AANS, yet it's not so at all for the umbrella organization, the AMA, which politically claims to represent all physicians.
乐动体育APPThis biographical reference book on "the key figures in the gun control debate today" delivers arguments and counterarguments on the meaning of the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, Americans' right to keep and bear arms. This book puts human faces on the argumentation. The figures featured in the reference book came from different backgrounds and disciplines, law, medicine, academics, law enforcement and plain mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, etc. who have become, because of their own experience, activists in the great debate.
A major engagement in the war over the right to keep and bear arms was fought in the House of Representatives this past July. The House voted to shift $2.6 million away from the National Centers for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC) - a research unit of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) - and earmark the funds for other health research projects. The funding was equivalent to the amount spent by the NCIPC in its campaign to redefine guns as "first and foremost, a public health menace."
乐动体育APPOn June 23, 1995, a swarm of armed men invaded the Mason, West Virginia medical office of Dr. Danny R. Westmoreland. With their guns drawn, the intruders ordered everyone, including a nine-year-old child, to stand against a wall while the office was ransacked. The marauders were agents of the federal "health police," and they had violated the sanctuary of Dr. Westmoreland's office - which is also his home - and terrorized patients at gunpoint in order to execute a search warrant against the physician.
Federal Assault
The trend of enacting public policy by lawsuits went into high gear during the eight years of the Clinton-Gore administration, as frenzied attorney-litigators rolled over increasing numbers of unwary defendants.
Perhaps it is time we turn the ignition off to this litigation locomotive.

Patrick Kane, Brent Seabrook and Viktor Stalberg scored to back Corey Crawford, and the Chicago Blackhawks hung on to beat the St. Louis Blues 3-2 on Tuesday night.
The Blackhawks looked sharp in their home opener after impressive wins at defending champion Los Angeles and Phoenix, the team that knocked them out of the playoffs in the first round last season.
This time, they took out the reigning Central division champions, with Kane scoring in the first period, Seabrook deflecting a shot into the net with his skate in the second and Stalberg coming through early in the third to make it 3-0.
Crawford made 32 saves and was in line for his first shutout since March 2011 when Andy McDonald beat him with a wrist shot shortly after Stalberg scored. T.J. Oshie pulled the Blues within one when he fired in a rebound of David Peron's shot on a power play with 5:07 left.
Brian Elliott made 24 saves, but the Blues took their first loss after beating Detroit and Nashville.
It was another good showing by the Blackhawks after they scored 11 goals in their first two games and sparked memories of the high-powered team that won the Stanley Cup in 2010.
Playing against the team that allowed the fewest goals in the league last season, they set the tempo in the early going and grabbed a 1-0 lead 7:20 in when Kane cut across the crease on a 3-on-0 rush. He took a feed from Patrick Sharp and beat Elliott with a backhand for his second goal of the season.
The Blues came on late in the period, but Crawford made two great saves seconds apart when he stopped Alexander Steen and sprawled out to block Vladimir Tarasenko on the rebound.
The Blackhawks caught a break early in the second when Steen fired at an empty net with Crawford out of position. The puck deflected off Chicago center Marcus Kruger's stick and fluttered into Keith's chest, preserving the lead for Chicago.
The Blackhawks added to it midway through the period on a power play when Keith fired a low laser from the blue line through a screen. The puck deflected off Seabrook's skate and slipped between Elliott's pads, making it 2-0.
Stalberg beat Elliott glove side just over two minutes into the third, with McDonald spoiling the shutout bid about 21/2 minutes after that.

OCC Bulletin 2005-34| October 6, 2005
Electronic Filing and Disclosure of Beneficial Ownership Reports: Final Rule
Chief Executive Officers of All Registered National Banks, Department and Division Heads, and All Examining Personnel
The attached final rule applies to only a small number of national banks that register their securities with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC). The rule, which amends the OCC's rules governing application of Securities Exchange Act disclosure rules to national banks (12 CFR 11), was published in the Federal Register on August 10, 2005.
The rule implements provisions enacted in the Sarbanes–Oxley Act of 2002 requiring the electronic filing of certain beneficial ownership reports by officers, directors, and major shareholders (insiders) of companies that have equity securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Insiders of registered national banks must file these reports with the OCC. This rule requires that all beneficial ownership reports required to be filed with the OCC must be filed electronically and posted on a registered national bank's Website, if it has one.
On July 28, 2003, the OCC informed national banks of an interagency electronic filing system, FDICconnect, which is available for submission of these reports. The OCC then issued an interim rule, with request for comments. Since the OCC received no comments, it adopted the rule as final without changes.
For further information about this bulletin, contact the Office of the Chief National Bank Examiner (202) 649-6370.

First broadcast
English themes
Japanese themes
Celebi and Joy! (Japanese: もうひとつのセレビィ伝説 Yet Another Legend of Celebi) is the 13th Weekly Pokémon Broadcasting Station side story episode and the 11th episode of Pokémon Chronicles. It first aired in Japan on October 7, 2003, in the United Kingdom on July 27, 2005 and in the United States on August 12, 2006.
|Spoiler warning: this article may contain major plot or ending details.
Richie and Sparky are in the big city, where the nearest Pokémon Center is scheduled for demolition. Two Nurse Joys—a grandmother and granddaughter—are trying to stop the demolition crew, so Richie and his Pokémon step in to drive off the crew's Pokémon. The Nurse Joys tell him that this Pokémon Center opened 75 years ago, back when the area was a rural place where Celebi lived. That was the same day the elder Nurse Joy's friend, Nick, was lost in a landslide. That night, a Celebi appears before Richie and shows him a Celebi carving hidden in the Pokémon Center's furniture. Then Richie is surrounded by light, and the next thing he knows, he's in the middle of a forest!
Richie hears a cry for help, and he rescues a young Joy from falling off a cliff. Joy leads him to the local Celebi shrine, where he's introduced to her friend Nick. Richie is in the past—and it's the day before the Pokémon Center first opened! Nick invites Richie to stay with him and his father for the night. They're traveling carpenters, and they'll leave tomorrow now that their work on the Center is complete. Nick is carving a Celebi statue for Joy but he won't stay for the Center opening and her birthday party, even after Richie tries to convince him to go.
That night, in the middle of a storm, Joy goes missing and everyone in town is looking for her. Nick thinks she's in the forest, so he and Richie go to look for her. They find Joy unconscious, knocked out by a falling tree on her way to check the Celebi shrine. Lightning threatens to set fire to the shrine, and Nick is almost hit by lightning himself as he tries to stop the flames. But Celebi appears to protect him and Joy is so touched, she decides to become a nurse and stay at the Pokémon Center.
The next day, Nick doesn't show up at the party, so Richie takes Joy's Ponyta and rides off to find him. Nick and his father are on a cart headed out of town, but Richie forces them to stop. He tells Nick to be brave and give the Celebi carving to Joy, so Nick and his father turn around just in time to avoid a deadly landslide. As Nick gives Joy his gift and admits his feelings for her—feelings that are mutual—Celebi whisks Richie back to the present. Now, the Pokémon Center is being restored, not demolished, and Nick is the town mayor. The concrete jungle has been replaced with a pleasant, tree-filled town, and Celebi even makes a special appearance before the townspeople.

At the center, which appears to be an older style, an elderly Nurse Joy is standing with her arms spread out, refusing to let the workers pass. A younger Nurse Joy comes out, wondering why the demolition team is there when the demolition wasn't supposed to start until next week. The workers explain that the Mayor ordered that it had to be tore down today. Apparently, they're planning to build a modern Pokémon Center that needs to be done in time for the holidays, so this old building's got to go down. The Nurses still refuse to budge, so the workers send in their Pokémon, a Scyther, a Machoke, a Rhydon, and a Pinsir. However, a Thunderbolt interrupts the proceedings, and Ritchie and Sparky are there, saying they shouldn't be attacking two Nurse Joys. So the workers decide to attack him instead, and send the Pokémon after him. Ritchie retaliates by sending out Rose, who uses Double Team to trick the enemy Pokémon into colliding with each other. Zippo and Sparky finish the job with a Flamethrower and a Thunderbolt. The workers and their Pokémon flee, saying "Wait until the mayor hears about this!" The Nurse Joys thank Ritchie, but he brushes it off, saying who really deserves thanks is the Pokémon. The Nurse Joys invite them inside for some delicious Pokémon food. As the camera zooms out to looking out a window from a building across the way, Celebi can be seen peeking out.
Inside, the older Nurse Joy explains that she's about to retire, and she's leaving her granddaughter, the younger Nurse Joy, in charge. They explain that tomorrow is an important day; it's both Grandma Joy's birthday, and the 50/75th anniversary of the Pokémon Center opening. They moan the fact that Marion Town has been growing into a city, and they don't want to leave room for an old Pokémon Center like this one. It wasn't always that way, though. Grandma Joy explains that it used to be a peaceful and quiet town. She even explains that Celebi used to live in the town before it was overtaken by skyscrapers and concrete. This revelation surprises Ritchie. Grandma Joy goes on to explain about Celebi, and how its presence indicates a harmony between humans and nature. Grandma Joy explains that she saw Celebi the day before the center opened 75 years ago. A day of joy and tragedy, because the day the center opened, there was a landslide that took a dear friend, Nick, away from them. She can only sigh, "If only he had come to my birthday party, he might still be alive with us."
That night, Ritchie is talking about how this building is filled with memories, but if they tear it down, all those memories will just disappear. He wishes there was something he could do to help, but he doesn't think there is. Or at least, not until they're surprised by a bright green light which reveals Celebi! Ritchie is amazed, but Celebi flies to a dresser and points at a drawer. Sparky pulls the drawer out, and Celebi flies inside, coming out with a hidden drawer with a Celebi carving inside. Ritchie wonders what it was doing back there, but Celebi answers with another green glow... which leaves the Celebi carving dropping to the floor, and Ritchie and Sparky standing in a forest.
Ritchie and Sparky are suddenly confused, but they suddenly hear someone calling for help. They find a young girl Joy hanging from a cliff, and manage to save her and pull her back up with some help from her Ponyta. Joy explains that she saw some flowers that she wanted to pick for Celebi when she fell. She explains that legends say that a Celebi lives in this forest, and she thinks it's true. To prove it, she shows them a Celebi Shrine that was put up in the forest a long time ago. A young boy named Nick is working on fixing the doors, but one of them falls off while he's showing off his work. Ritchie's attention, however, is on something else. That's the same Celebi statue he saw earlier, in the city! Nick grudgingly admits that when it comes to carpentry, he's still not nailing it. Joy calls him on the bad joke, and this is the first time Ritchie catches his name, and remember the photo Grandma Joy showed him earlier.
While they're walking back, Joy comments on Ritchie's odd clothes, saying he must come from really far away. She wants to travel when she grows up, though her mother wants her to run the Pokémon Center. When Ritchie asks Nick, he explains that he helps his father.
However, Sparky interrupts, pointing out the Pokémon Center ahead. It's still under construction, but almost finished. Joy heads in, hoping to see them at the party. Ritchie looks confused, but Nick explains that it's a two-in-one party: celebrating the opening of the center, and Joy's birthday. Ritchie suddenly realizes that everything he's seen today is tying in perfectly with what he's heard just earlier.
Later that night during a thunderstorm, Nick's father is informed that Joy ran into the forest. As Ritchie and Nick head out to look for Joy, they find her unconscious near the shrine. As a fire starts near them, Celebi appears and protects them.
The next day as Nick and his father leave, Ritchie remembers the Celebi carving that Nick left and rides a Ponyta after them (since this was the day that the landslide killed Nick and his father). Upon catching up to them, Ritchie shows Nick the Celebi carving and persuades him to return to give it to Joy. As Nick and his father head back to Marion town, the fatal landslide occurs behind Ritchie. Nick finally shows up to the party and gives Joy her gift. After that happens, Ritchie and Sparky are returned to the present.
Upon arrival, Ritchie sees the same demolition crew and their Pokémon at the Pokémon Center. At first, Ritchie thought they were going to demolish it, but they were restoring it. Ritchie then meets an elderly Nick who is the mayor of this town. Afterwards, Celebi makes itself known. What used to be an overcrowded and polluted city has been regressed to a normal city that still embraces Marion Town's old traditions to this day.

Guidelines for Contributions to WorldCat
These Guidelines are designed to assist OCLC member institutions in interpreting the Global Council document titled, "WorldCat Principles of Cooperation" and in using the document "WorldCat Rights and Responsibilities for the OCLC Cooperative." They were endorsed by Global Council at its June 2011 meeting.
1. "Member libraries make a commitment to contribute to OCLC all current metadata and holdings information, which represents items in their collections."
Many libraries question what this means to them. Most do not hesitate to add metadata and holdings for their physical collections held in their buildings, but question whether metadata for other types of materials, including e-resources, ought to be included. Below are some examples to help in deciding when to add or not to add metadata and holdings information to WorldCat.
Member libraries are encouraged to add the following to WorldCat:
- Physical collections
If the materials are part of your permanent collection, and appear in your catalog, the metadata and holdings should appear in WorldCat. The item does not have to be classified in order to qualify for inclusion in WorldCat; many libraries only assign accession numbers to some kinds of materials but still catalog them and consider them part of their permanent collection.
- E-Resources
Metadata and holdings for e-books, e-journals and other electronic resources (such as Web sites) should be included in WorldCat. The availability of metadata and holdings can facilitate linking users with content through services such as the WorldCat knowledge base. Such inclusion does not necessarily indicate the ability to loan these materials or use them to fill interlibrary loan requests, as many license agreements do not allow such use.
- Special collections or local historical materials
Often special collections or local materials are not included in WorldCat because it is felt that there is no interest in them on an international level. The inclusion, however, of these materials, which are increasingly represented by digital surrogates, can be one of the richest contributions made to WorldCat. For example, use of the WorldCat Digital Collection Gateway can facilitate the contribution and maintenance of metadata for these digital objects, as well as materials held in institutional repositories.
- Materials that a library does not wish to lend
Inclusion of metadata and holdings in WorldCat does not obligate any library to lend materials. It merely acknowledges that it owns a copy of the material. Many
patrons using WorldCat will be interested in learning that materials are held by a nearby library, to which they can travel in order to use the material. Scholarship is advanced by the inclusion of rare materials in WorldCat, even if the holding library has no intention of lending it. Scholars are usually willing to travel considerable distances for the privilege of examining rare materials on site.
Member libraries are not required to add the following to WorldCat:
- Reserve materials
Academic libraries have the common practice of temporarily cataloging items not part of their collection in order to place them on reserve for a class. Usually these are personal copies of books or videos owned by the professor requesting that they be placed on reserve. Such items, because they are temporary in nature, are not required to be included in WorldCat.
- Proprietary materials
Corporate libraries may not want to show acquisition or ownership of specific materials because their presence would point to classified current interests or development of new competitive products.
- U.S. federal government documents
After discussion by Users Council in 1995, U.S. federal government documents, even if cataloged and classified, were identified as a legitimate exception to the requirement of adding to WorldCat the holdings of all current, Roman alphabet cataloging. Member institutions are encouraged to include them in their contributions to WorldCat to improve discoverability and cooperative collection management of these resources.
- Rental collections
Member libraries may not invest in the cataloging of rental or leased collections (e.g. McNaughton) because of the temporary status of these collections in their local catalog. Therefore, not contributing holdings to WorldCat is an acceptable exclusion.
While adding metadata and holdings for these materials is not a requirement, member institutions are encouraged to include them in WorldCat, if circumstances and resources permit, in order to reflect the institution's full holdings. Effective use of some OCLC services and products may require their inclusion.
2. "Members make a commitment to create bibliographic records and related data consistent with established guidelines maintained by OCLC and its advisory groups for entering information in WorldCat records."
WorldCat has become the international online catalog that helps OCLC members share resources, reduce costs, and increase their visibility and impact in the communities they serve. WorldCat records must serve a variety of purposes ranging from selection to discovery and a variety of audiences ranging from expert searchers and library staff to general users of the web. OCLC recognizes that not all member libraries follow the same cataloging standards and policies. Online cataloging users following Anglo-American cataloging standards should follow Bibliographic Formats and Standards, 4th edition, as a guide to the creation and maintenance of records. Member institutions that use other cataloging standards should identify the cataloging rules, terminologies, classification schemes and language of cataloging in the records they contribute to WorldCat. These member institutions should also be familiar with the general information about WorldCat found in Bibliographic Formats and Standards, 4th edition, Chapters 1 through 5. Minimal-level and Abbreviated-level cataloging, and other less-than-full cataloging guidelines, are accepted standards and are options for briefer records.
Adopted by the OCLC Global Council on 16 June 2011.

OK, gang. Florida or Ohio? How about neither! This one happened in Scranton, Pa., where 39-year-old Babe Ruth League coach John Zahradnik was charged Saturday with reckless endangerment and harassment. It started when Zahradnik allegedly argued with an umpire, which escalated into an alleged argument with a woman, which took a turn when another man tried to break it up, after which the kerfuffle got serious when Zahradnik allegedly tried to run down that man with his pickup truck before he got out of the truck and began punching him.
Then, this, according to the Scranton Times-Tribune:
While Mr. Irizarry ran to his own vehicle, Mr. Zahradnik shouted that he had a gun and reached into his truck and pulled out a handgun, according to the complaint.
Another man on the scene, Edwin Acevedo, shouted that Mr. Zahradnik had a gun as there were still several children and parents in the area and pushed him back into his truck at which point Mr. Zahradnik drove off, according to the complaint.

London Broncos boss Tony Rea was full of praise for his Super League charges after a remarkable second-half comeback overturned Salford 40-28 at the Twickenham Stoop.
Trailing 28-6 at half-time, seven tries and three conversions gave the Broncos their first win in six attempts.
Rea said: "People will probably ask me, 'What did you say at half-time?'
"The key things came from Chris Bailey and Craig Gower. I just saw the glint in the eyes of the guys once they backed up our messages, so full credit to the leaders in the team."
Second-half tries from Kieran Dixon, Jamie O'Callaghan, Luke Dorn, Craig Dower, Will Lovell, Chris Bailey and Tony Clubb added to Omari Caro's first-half score and Gower's four conversions.
Rea takes his men to Castleford Tigers on Sunday.

10 reasons health care needs sustainability treatments
10 reasons health care needs sustainability treatments
Imagine a space where you feel good. Muscles relax, breathing is deeper. There is a natural feeling of gratitude and calm. Does this space lead to more positive interactions with others? Does it bring out the best in you?
Hospitals have a mission to help the elderly and the weak, but don't always walk the walk. Cancer is treated, but hazardous chemicals are found in cleaning products and furniture. Heart conditions are taken care of, but French fries and burgers are served in the cafeteria. There's a global climate-change crisis, yet hospitals are the second-highest energy consumer of any sector and generate more than 30 pounds of waste per bed per day.
Health care is in conflict with itself — in some ways, it's its own worst enemy. A sound treatment protocol has to be balanced with resource conservation and management. Here are 10 reasons to practice a better approach.
1. Human health and the environment
Climate change impacts public health, yet most facilities aren't ready to say it out loud. Hospitals cannot get in balance without a top-down stewardship strategy that aligns with the organization's goals, as a handful of hospitals have started to prove.
Wisconsin-based hospital system ThedaCare, for example, created a "sustainability leader" position and is hosting the Climate and Health Symposium to educate staff about environmental action and education. A member of Practice Greenhealth, it has signed onto all six challenges in the Healthier Hospitals Initiative (HHI), a national campaign to improve sustainability in the health-care sector.
Tenet Health also incorporates sustainability initiatives. Its Sustainability Report demonstrates a system-wide approach to better health and demonstrates how that strategy is incorporated at the local level. Advocate Healthcare, meanwhile, highlights progress meeting environmental goals in its own Sustainability Report.
2. Prevention
We've moved beyond the notion of merely treating disease and toward prevention and wellness, with several pioneering programs leading the way. Magee Womens Hospital of UPMC, for instance, teaches parents about the connection between human health and the environment through prenatal classes and its "Baby Steps to Green Parenting" program (video below).
With a large number of chronic diseases linked to diet, hospitals are also increasingly implementing sustainable food policies. They are signing Health Care Without Harm's Healthy Food Pledge and modeling better behavior through increased vegetarian options, reduced sugar-sweetened beverages and more locally sourced fruits and vegetables. Through HHI, hospitals and their food-service partners are working together to identify barriers to healthier food systems, increasing nutritious options and facilitating improved purchasing while maintaining costs. One leader in this movement is Fletcher Allen in Vermont, which purchases local organic veggies, syrup, cheese and more.
3. Cost savings
Extending the life of equipment, improving efficiency, preventing toxins and waste, using less energy and water — these activities reduce costs. South Carolina's Bon Secours St. Francis Health System was the first hospital in the state to receive Energy Star designation when it reduced energy use by 20 percent through the development of the Ecological Stewardship Plan, resulting in annual energy-cost savings of $850,000. As a sponsor of the Healthier Hospitals Initiative, it shares winning solutions to help others do the same.
4. Employee engagement
Workers engaged in what they do will provide better care to more satisfied patients. New York Presbyterian Hospital in New York City harnesses employee passion through the Green Champion Program, which empowers environmental leaders and supports action through checklists and activities shared by Harvard University's Green Office Resource Green Leaf Program. Advocate Healthcare, meanwhile, celebrates its Environmental Stewardship Winners in a video that highlights and empowers employees to make healthy changes at work.
5. Competitive advantage
At this year's Institute for Health Care Improvement annual conference, co-founder Don Berwick shared in his keynote that environmental stewardship has redefined the three-pronged framework for quality health care — patient experience, cost per capita and population health.
"Hospitals, places of healing, can model healthier behavior," Dr. Berwick said. "Leaders that integrate environmentally sustainable operations at their facilities create a culture of nurturing and demonstrate sincere commitment to all people." Yet not all leaders get this — indeed, 50 percent of health-care workers are unsatisfied with their leadership, largely because they want to feel cared for and don't feel this is happening.
6. Mission and ethics
What is the value of long-term success if it's on an uninhabitable planet? When framing environmental stewardship activities, it helps to review a hospital's mission statement. Most of these focus on health and healing, communities, quality and safety. Some hospitals have created environmental charters to frame their commitment.
Ronald P. Hamel, Ph.D., senior director of ethics for the Catholic Health Association, explains the critical role ethics play in health care. "Ethics are central not only in helping to shape the culture of an organization, but in guiding the organization's decision-making, behavior and integrity," he said. "Ethics should assist the organization in becoming what it claims to be in regards to identity, character and culture. A self-unaware and constricted consciousness is one of ethics' great adversaries."
7. Marketing and PR
Practice Greenhealth, the nonprofit where I work, hosts the health sector's Environmental Excellence Awards. These offer an opportunity for hospitals, long-term care facilities and community health centers to share, and receive recognition for, positive data and the stories behind them. Applications result in the Sustainability Benchmark report and a celebration at the annual conference, CleanMed. The UC Davis Health System is one example of a facility that shares details of its commitment on an official web page and blog.
8. Community benefits
The Affordable Care Act requires not-for-profit hospitals to conduct a community needs assessment and to develop implementation strategies to address identified needs. In addition, the Internal Revenue requires tax-exempt hospitals to document their community benefits and community-building activities.
Both the Catholic Health Association and Health Care Without Harm have worked to integrate certain environmental improvement initiatives into community health-needs assessments.
Historically, Kaiser Permanente has integrated environmental stewardship activities into its Community Benefit Report. In 2013, it took this one step further by integrating the Community Benefit report into its Annual Report. Along with Dignity Health, Kaiser Permanente was an early adopter in formally reporting healthy initiatives. Dignity Health works with CERES and is the first system to use the Global Reporting Initiative framework for reporting.
9. Patient experience
A quality patient experience goes beyond clinical excellence. The environment that makes one feel less stressed and cared for — a look in the eyes, a caring conversation — can be harder to quantify, but is also important for the healing process.
10. Happiness
Happiness comes from helping others. Protecting the planet, even in small ways, is something that takes healing beyond the facility walls.
Whether you work in health care or receive health care or both, you can be part of the movement. Write a letter to the president and board of directors for your local hospital and ask about their formal sustainability plan. Let them know it's important to you.

Here's how the Raiders graded out in Sunday's 37-6 loss to the Denver Broncos, according to beat writer Jerry McDonald:
Pass offense
Carson Palmer (19 of 34, 204 yards) did some good things early on but found himself increasingly under pressure as the Broncos expanded their lead and couldn't convert in the red zone. Threw his best deep ball of the season — a 37-yard sideline strike to Denarius Moore and a couple of nice screens. Grade: C-plus
Rush offense
Darren McFadden gained 15 yards on his first three carries, a promising start that went nowhere. He finished with 34 yards on 13 carries. The longest gain went to Mike Goodson on a 13-yard run. The Raiders needed to run to keep Denver' s pass rush at bay and failed. Grade: F
Pass defense
Target practice, fish in a barrel, pitch-and-catch, use any descriptive clichés you want and that's what Peyton Manning did to the Raiders defense. He completed 30 of 38 passes to eight different receivers for 338 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions, had zero pressure. It all looked so easy. Grade: F
Run defense
Denver's no-huddle offense set a tempo the Raiders simply couldn't match, and it showed up in the Broncos running game, which got progressively better as the game went on. Willis McGahee gained 119 yards on 19 carries and Ronnie Hillman, who had just eight yards on three touches coming in, had 31 yards on 10 attempts. Grade: D-minus
Special teams
A deflected punt by David Bruton, who got far enough inside Brandon Myers and made a perfectly timed leap, led to a short field Denver touchdown. Taiwan Jones had two nice stops on punt returns of Jim Leonhard but later got a face mask penalty. Punt returns? That would mean the Broncos actually punted. They didn't. Grade C-minus
The Raiders had all the reason in the world to come out in the second half ready to play, trailing just 10-6 when it could have been 20-3 and unraveled. Three-and-outs followed by Denver touchdowns. Sorry, but can't agree with Dennis Allen's "compete until the end" stance with Carson Palmer. He needed the hook for his health. Grade: F

Here is the second Gravity Falls character that I said I was going to upload. Here is "how to draw Pacifica Northwest", step by step. As you can imagine Pacifica has a very demanding and ultra conceded personality. She thinks she is the boss of everything and everyone because of her cockiness which is due to the fact that she is the great-great grand daughter to Nathaniel Northwest, the founder of Gravity Falls. All that is well and good but the veil is exposed when people realize that she is a blown out fraud. Anyways, Mabel is her enemy and so id Dipper and Uncle Grunkle Stan. Drawing Pacifica will be easy, and fun so have a go at it, and see if you can recreate her. Peace out mi amigos.

Ex-MI6 officer admits attempt to sell secrets
Dodges theft rap, but faces jail
Updated A former MI6 officer faces jail after he pleaded guilty this morning to two breaches of the Official Secrets Act.
Mr Justice Bean told Daniel Houghton, of Hoxton, that a prison sentence was inevitable, PA reports.
In an apparent plea deal, Houghton denied a third charge, of theft, which was accepted by the prosecution.
The 25-year-old, who holds joint British-Dutch nationality and a computer science degree, was arrested leaving a central London hotel in March, carrying a briefcase that contained £900,000 cash. He had just met undercover MI5 officers, who he believed had bought British secrets on behalf of a foreign government.
Prosecutors disclosed in a previous hearing that MI5 counter-espionage investigators acted on a tip-off from Dutch authorities, who he had approached asking for £2m.
He had left MI6 after less than two years, apparently with Top Secret papers, and a laptop hard drive and memory sticks stuffed with highly classified information. It was ten months between his departure from the service and the climax of the operation to catch him.
Houghton pleaded guilty today to disclosing details of intelligence-gathering techniques, and disclosing two lists of British intelligence personnel. The theft charge, effectively abandoned today, accused him of stealing files from MI5.
The apparent bargain means details of how Houghton was able to leave MI6 with a cache of printed and electronic Top Secret material - which remained undetected until Dutch authorities alerted MI5 - will remain a worrying mystery. He will be sentenced on 3 September. ®
According to The Guardian, Houghton had taken many of the files home on CDs and DVDs he was able to burn at the office. Which is reassuring.
It also reports his lawyers submitted psychiatric reports in mitigation claiming he had been "directed by voices".

Play Attention Boosts Concentration
Because children are constantly exposed to fast paced technology like cell phones, text messaging, email, and video games, many find it difficult to stay focused and pay attention in today's slower paced classrooms.
Teachers and parents are often challenged to keep kids focused and on-task. Learning is more difficult with a short attention span. "Short attention spans seem to pervade today's classrooms," says veteran classroom teacher, Peter Freer, MEd. Freer spent two decades researching and developing attention training technology to counter today's distracted, short-memory students. He found that NASA had used feedback technology to teach pilots and astronauts to pay attention in the cockpit.
NASA's research inspired him to create Play Attention, a helmet lined with sensors that allows students to control computer exercises by mind alone. The comprehensive learning system not only empowers students to move objects on screen by concentration, but also teaches them to finish homework and filter out distractions. "Educators are being forced to teach differently because kids are exposed to so much. But education does not equate to entertainment. We should expect students to attend to all levels of stimulation.�
Play Attention is easy-to-use and highly motivating. It also includes methods that help reduce self-distracting behaviors like calling out or fidgeting. The unique system monitors brain activity through the sensor lined helmet. The fun exercises teach skills necessary to be successful in the classroom. Improving attention is important for a variety of fields, so Play Attention is used world wide by parents, teachers, psychologists, hospitals, learning centers, and even the US Olympic Women's Bobsled Team.
"Training people to pay better attention is what we're focused on,� says Freer whose Play Attention learning system is used in over 450 school systems in the US alone. "60% to 70% of children will carry their attention problems into adulthood – so poor attention is a problem for corporate America, not just America's schools.�
