Diaboli Kill has strives to maintain high standards in design, materials and fine craftsmanship. Fine jewelry should be treated with love and care. There are some important things to keep in mind to treasure your jewelry for generations to come. By following these basic jewelry care tips, you can help preserve your jewelry for years to come.
- Jewelry should be carefully stored your jewelry in a soft lined box when not being worn. Please use the jewelry box provided and keep your pieces separate from other jewels so they do not scratch each other and cause damage. Take off and store your jewelry before you go to bed.
- Even though fine jewelry is made of metal, all precious metals are delicate. Yes, even our fiercest pieces should be worn with care. Do not bend or drop them.
- Over time the surface of silver, gold and platinum jewelry may become dull, this is normal. We do not recommend professionally polishing your jewelry more than once a year as this removes a thin layer of metal each time.
- Avoid wearing jewelry while cleaning, gardening, performing sports activities such as hitting the gym, lifting weights, doing yoga, swimming, rock climbing, etc...
- Our jewelry is meant to be worn, flaunted and enjoyed - just please do so with care.
- Professional cleaning is recommended at least once a year. In between professional servicing, you can also maintain your gold and platinum jewelry at home by using a gold, platinum, and gemstone safe non-abrasive cleaner.
- Carefully examine your jewelry regularly to make sure the prongs are intact and the clasps are working properly. Weakness in timeworn prongs and clasps can result in the loss of a gemstone or the entire piece of jewelry.
- Avoid exposing gold and platinum jewelry to any household cleaners especially bleach. Bleach will cause discoloration and damage to the metal.
- Tarnish is a natural occurrence that happens to all silver metals as a result of oxidation caused by the exposure of silver with certain elements such as oxygen, sulfur, salt, certain acids, and chlorine. Wearing your silver jewelry actually helps prevent oxidation, so we recommend wearing your silver jewelry every day. Keep your silver jewelry stored in an airtight ziplock bag jewelry box. If you wish to have your Diaboli Kill silver jewelry polished, please contact us at email@example.com
- Plated jewelry is not waterproof. Take care to keep your jewelry away from water and moisture. Lotions, oils, perfumes, alcohol, and chemical cleaners can weaken, damage, or remove the plating.
- Plated jewelry may wear and tarnish over time- this is normal. You can help prevent tarnishing by storing your jewelry in an airtight ziplock bag.
- We do not advise polishing your plated jewelry as this will remove the plating.
- Simply wipe clean with a soft dry cloth to clean.

Milt Kort is a legend of sorts: a magician who has seldom traveled outside the Detroit area, who rarely performs at magician's conventions or lectures, yet a man whom the professionals and greats in magic came to see; men like Paul Rosini, Dr. Daley, J.B. Bobo, Charlie Miller, Cardini, Dai Vernon, and many more sought out Milt Kort and shared secrets with him.But why? Becuase Milt fooled them with devishly clever tricks of his own invention. These tricks are in great part what Kort is about. They all fall within the realm of close-up magic, Milt's main love, and they use such mundane items as playing cards, coins, dice, balls, razor blades, eggs, handkerchiefs, pens and toy elephants. What happens with those items, though, is anything but mundane. Using skills and techniques mainly in the range of the average close-up enthusiast, Milt Kort offers 46 of his most baffling and entertaining tricks and routines to his fellow hobbyists and lovers of magic.

FARMINGTON — A community "roadside clean up" will be held this Saturday morning to afternoon, with dozens of participants expected to aid in the beautification of Farmington.
Dave Connolly, chairman of the Farmington Conservation Commission, said the idea was presented to his group during the summer, when resident Abby Pagan-Allis said she took matters into her own hands this past August. She and her husband Don voluntarily picked up several bags of trash, from waste cluttering the shoulders of Bay Road, Connolly said. With assistance from the Department of Public Works, the small group worked to clear the area of the water tower and community garden down to the town forest parking lot at that time.
Connolly said he is now looking forward to this weekend's organized effort, approved by both the commission and the Board of Selectmen. The event is coordinated by Pagan-Allis as well, who continues to lend her efforts to the cause.
"What comes to your mind when driving down the road (is) you see coffee cups, food bags, alcohol bottles, soda bottles, appliances (and) tires," Connolly told Foster's. "Disgusting, isn't it? Any town which is trying to attract new business or residents wants to present itself as a clean community. As residents of Farmington, it is the least we can do to help our community look attractive."
Helpers are invited to gather at the Town Hall between 7:45 and 8:20 a.m. to sign-up, and work into the early afternoon at their assigned road. Connolly said coffee and doughnuts will be provided in the morning, with a break at 11 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. back at Town Hall for more refreshments. Safety vests, trash bags and gloves will be provided, and residents can leave filled trash bags roadside to be picked up later in the day.
He added 25 to 30 people have already indicated they will show up to help.
"The roads that I have selected are River Road, from Hornetown Rd to Route 11, Bay Rd, from the water tower to the New Durham line, Meetinghouse Hill Road, from Route 11 to Ten Rod Rd, Cocheco Rd from Main Street to Chestnut Hill Road, and Hornetown Rd, from Ridge Road to River Road," Connolly said. "This is a total of 12 miles, round trip."
Volunteers will include various town officials and members of the Board of Selectmen along with Police Chief Kevin Willey.
Farmington bands together to beautify roadside Sat.
FARMINGTON — A community "roadside clean up" will be held this Saturday morning to afternoon, with dozens of participants expected to aid in the beautification of Farmington.

LAKEWOOD RANCH — Christmastime couldn't have been much more bittersweet for Dave Sturkey, founding pastor of Cornerstone Church of Lakewood Ranch.
After more than 18 years leading the church — bringing it from its beginnings in a movie theater to recently celebrating the opening of a multi-million dollar expansion — Sturkey has retired.
He preached his sermon on Christmas Eve.
"I'm mourning," Sturkey said. "I love ministry. For years, I've gotten offers from other churches, but I've never felt like it could walk into a team (like we have here). We have a great group of leaders and a great congregation."
Interim Pastor Daryl Davis will lead the church into the new year, taking over preaching and other responsibilities as a committee searches for a new senior pastor. The search likely will take about one year.
"He's very knowledgeable of our church and its culture," Sturkey said, noting he worked alongside Davis during Cornerstone's beginnings.
The first time Sturkey visited the East County, members of Covenant Life Presbyterian Church, the Sarasota church responsible for planting Cornerstone, picked up Sturkey and his wife, Kelly, from the airport and drove them to a patch of land east of Interstate 75.
"There was a locked gate and a dirt road," Sturkey said. "I was 29."
The property eventually would become Cornerstone's current location off Covenant Way, but not for many years. Covenant hired Sturkey and began preparations for its pending church plant.
After gathering about 50 people, Sturkey and his new congregation began meeting at the Parkway 8 Cinemas, where they continued to hold services for seven years, until construction began on their permanent church home. The congregation then met on Saturday nights at Hope Presbyterian until Cornerstone's building opened in late 2001, Sturkey said.
But throughout the church's history, Sturkey said he, other church leaders and members have worked hard to cultivate a spirit of grace and openness and to stick to their mission.
"We believe here you can belong before you believe," Sturkey said. "Our aim is to introduce Christianity to people who have never encountered that. We try to break the stereotypes. We want non-Christians to come among us and not have to pretend to be Christians."
Over the years, the church has hosted community events, such as discussions with religion professors, experts and others about films such as "The Passion of the Christ" and its alleged anti-Semitic themes, and other culturally relevant topics as conversation pieces, of sorts.
"I think we attract families and individuals who have no Christian background and we introduce them to the Gospel and Christ so their families are transformed," Sturkey said. "We see that over and over."
Although Sturkey loves being a pastor, he says the job has taken a toll on him and his family.
"I'm not in a place in my own family's health to help people with their marriages," Sturkey said.
He announced his pending retirement to the congregation in July, and the church has been preparing for the transition since.
As for Sturkey, he's still unsure what the future holds. The East County resident is working on his doctoral degree in organizational leadership and is planning a career change, possibly becoming a professor in the academic realm or helping large organizations develop their culture.
"I love that kind of stuff," Sturkey said. "I love helping people find their place in an organization."
Sturkey said he also hopes to stay involved in ministry, as well, by mentoring pastors leading church plants, assessing church plant candidates with the Presbyterian Churches of America's Church Planting Assessment Center and mentoring young Christians.
Contact Pam Eubanks at [email protected].
Study in Sustainability
In 2006, Sturkey and his wife participated in a study by Covenant Theological Seminary in St. Louis called "Sustaining Pastoral Excellence." Because studies show that about 92% of individuals who graduated from seminary eventually drop out of ministry and did not retire in the field, Covenant wanted to learn how to better prepare its students for the challenges ahead, Sturkey said.
Funded by the Indianapolis-based Lilly Endowment Inc., the study observed 30 pastors nationwide in each of three two-year periods to help determine what makes pastors drop out of ministry.
Less than two years after the study concluded, Dave and Kelly decided it was time to make a change.
"Pastors are people who are in highly stressful jobs like police officers and paramedics," Sturkey said. "When something goes wrong, we're called into that area. The stresses on the family are big. We've really experienced that."
Sturkey, who in the study was considered a pastor who was "doing well" (compared to near retirement or struggling pastors), now is the third pastor out of 10 from his smaller group of 10 "doing well" pastors to retire prematurely, he said.

Home > Lawyers Helping Lawyers
The Association's Lawyers Helping Lawyers (LHL) Committee was established in 1978 to provide a confidential channel of communication for attorneys and judges experiencing alcohol or drug-related difficulties. The LHL is a committee of volunteers. We're lawyers just like you. Our only qualification for helping is that we have been there. We have stopped our dependency on alcohol and drugs and we know how to help. It's your career. It's your call.
One in five attorneys suffer from alcohol or drug addiction.
That's nearly two times more than the general population. Despite the fact that addiction does not discriminate, legal professionals have a higher predisposition to the illness. Why? It's the nature of the profession; lawyers tend to be overachievers, carry an enormous workload and often work in emotionally charged, high-pressure environments.
Dependency is a treatable health problem.
It is a physical and emotional disease with absolutely nothing to do with morals or will power. It is an addiction to alcohol and/or drugs. It is a progressive illness that will only get worse without help.
How are drugs or alcohol affecting your life?
Just like any disease, symptoms vary from person to person. Some people exhibit out-of-control behavior while others slowly progress over decades. Some are daily drinkers/users where others abstain for long periods of time and then binge.
Do you....
- Lie about alcohol or drug use?
- Get jumpy, shaky, cranky, nervous or have cravings because you need alcohol or drugs?
- Use alcohol or drugs in the morning?
- Miss work or perform poorly due to alcohol or drug use?
- Avoid family and friends in favor of using alcohol or drugs?
- Suffer from depression?
- Make poor decisions including sexual risks or drive under the influence?
Maybe you have a problem. Maybe you don't. If, however, you drink or use more than you want to...if you get into trouble or if you simply find your addiction getting in the way of family, friends, and work....please call us.
Take control of your problem before someone else does. If you or someone you know is impaired by alcohol or substance dependency, Lawyers Helping Lawyers can help - discreetly and confidentially.

I finished Blackbird Designs Moonlit Garden. It is so pretty. I really want to frame this for October. This was a fairly quick stitch. Once the house and moon were completed, everything else came together pretty quickly. A friend told me that the pattern would sell on eBay for a nice price. I checked out current auctions and was surprised at some of the prices. Of course, since Tucker (my 4 year old nephew) sat on the pattern, I can't advertise it as mint condition.
I am also working on Halloween Line Up. This is a lot of fun. I really like the spiders. I have two more lines (pumpkins and owls) at the top and then the row of trick-or-treaters at the bottom. This should be finished soon.
Well, I don't have any other photos to share, but I am working on a few other projects. I have Nicholas's stocking. The stitching is slow, but I am oh so close to finishing the leaves. I really believe that once I finish the leaves, the rest will move at a much quicker pace.
I also started a Tournicoton pattern. It is a Halloween pattern that is really cute. It is all DMC floss, so I am making great progress with it. I will try to post a picture later this week.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great week.

Happy Labor Day!!
I know, I know, I have been very bad about updating my blog. But, I have been very busy, really. Of course, the boys went back to school at the beginning of August and my classes started in the middle of August. Even though I am only teaching 3 classes I have over 300 students to deal with. To top that off, I had to fly to Dubuque last week for a meeting about the textbook. AND I have been sick most of the last two weeks. So, there are my excuses.
But, I do have some stitching to share. I finished the LK Boo Club. Isn't is adorable? This was a very quick and fun stitch. Can't wait to get it framed.
After finishing this, I have been bitten by the Halloween/Autumn bug and have picked several appropriate projects. I am so very close to finishing the Moonlit Garden piece from Blackbird Design. I have just a few more stars, leaves, and a pumpkin to stitch and then the verse. This is my project for the rest of the night.
I have several other fall themed patterns kitted and will show some pictures of those when I have enough stitched to be recognizable.
One last picture to leave you with. This is Josey, our wild cat. She is almost a year old. It is amazing how big she has gotten. When I first brought her home she could fit under a ball cap.
Have a great week.

Firefight Lyrics
Oh how is it we are cursed so, and reduced to this pandemonium?
Screams of the beings through the ash that I see
Now do I beg the question, question the aggression, of the suffering to be
Why the single spark, that made the flame, that set this blaze.
A blaze to quell our light and ignite the sky.
The flames that hold us
Are the same that hold the night
This was meant to choke the light
'Cause this is a fire, this is a fire fight!
No remorse or regret
Ravenous contempt for the lives now spent
Now kiss the blaze and cry
This is a fire, this is a fire fight!
The plume of black ash so gently caresses the sky
To the world I knew I say goodbye, there are no more questions now
The lashes of flickering pain, incandescent luminescent as the brightest day
I feel my spirit slipping away!
No mercy shown or debt was owed, for what I cannot dream
The reason for this wrath bestowed by flame beyond the sea
Tonight I've heard the cry and swear by all I've seen
That vengeance will one day be mine, satisfaction will I breathe.
Have you ever see your whole world build from ash, to ashes return!

Netflix rates broadband providers in US and Canada by bandwidth performance
Posted by Patrick Lambert Categories: Broadband, Home Entertainment, Internet
Netflix published a very interesting set of charts showing the performance of various networks in Canada and the US. Taking only HD content, they rate each network based on how much throughput they can achieve, or how much bandwidth they can provide to their customers over the length of a streamed movie. While the Canadian Internet providers are very close to each other, there are major differences for the US. If you're streaming video or high demand data online regularily, Netflix or otherwise, this may give you a good indication on which carrier fares better. Hit the break for a look at the numbers.

Navy Sub Goes Bump in the Night and Loses Its Periscope
The U. S. Navy's nuclear submarine USS Jacksonville was damaged early Thursday in the Persian Gulf when one of its two periscopes was struck by an unidentified vessel.
No one was hurt in the early morning incident and the submarine's nuclear reactor did not suffer any damage.
According to a statement from U.S. Naval Forces Central Command, the Los Angeles-class submarine "struck a vessel while operating in the Persian Gulf Jan. 10 at approximately 5 a.m. local time."
The submarine "then surfaced from periscope depth to ascertain if there was any damage to the unidentified vessel. The vessel continued on a consistent course and speed offering no indication of distress or acknowledgement of a collision."
A Navy official told ABC News that it is believed that the submarine had struck a fishing trawler. He said the crew was conducting normal operations "when they felt a shudder, they felt the ship vibrate."
The crew then tried to put up their periscope to determine what had happened, but found it was not working. When they put up the submarine's other periscope they discovered the first periscope "had been sheared off, cut right off," said the official.
Using radar tracks and their periscope observations, the crew determined that a fishing trawler traveling in the opposite direction from the sub was likely responsible for the periscope having been sheared off.
The submarine then traveled by surface to the U.S. naval base in Bahrain, where a damage assessment is underway.
According to the statement, "The reactor remains in a safe condition, there was no damage to the propulsion plant systems and there is no concern regarding watertight integrity."
A P-3 Orion aircraft later conducted an aerial search of the area and saw no debris in the water or an vessels in distress.
The incident is under investigation.

Economic Views
Schroders Quickview: Indian concerns remain despite good growth
Momentum is improving and we expect better performance this year compared to 2015, but reform efforts must continue.
Contributes to
Unstructured Learning Time
The first quarter of 2016 saw Indian GDP growth accelerate to 7.9% year-on-year, from 7.3% in the previous quarter, beating consensus expectations of 7.5% growth. The government's preferred measure, GVA1, expanded 7.4% compared to 7.1% previously.
Momentum improving
The improvement is roughly in line with that seen in higher frequency data, though we still have our doubts over the level of growth. Industrial production, for example, was barely positive in Q1.
In general, the rest of the economic data looks more consistent with a 6% growth rate than one approaching 8%.
Concerns over measurement aside, momentum does seem to be improving and combined with recent legislative gains, this should provide reassurance that the economy is headed in the right direction.
With regards to legislation, the latest session of parliament has seen the passing of the Aadhar Bill (which will greatly increase the efficiency of government transfers) and the Bankruptcy Code (which addresses the ease of doing business and should also help in resolving India's bad debt problem), among others.
Again, the trend of gradual improvements continues, even if huge leaps forward are proving elusive.
Upside risks
One other risk for India, although on the upside, lies in the monsoon rains. The past two years have seen below-normal monsoons, hurting harvests and resulting in lower growth and higher inflation than would otherwise be the case.
This year, with the El Niño weather phenomenon switching to La Niña, monsoon conditions are much more favourable, and so we should see a better harvest. On the growth side, this can compensate for weaker manufacturing output.
On inflation, given that food is around 46% of the consumer price index (CPI) inflation basket, the benefits are obvious.
Overall, we expect India to deliver a better growth performance this year than in 2015, though we might quibble over the level that is actually being achieved.
The issue of measurement should not be trivialised; reform efforts should not falter on the back of complacency linked to delusions of a supercharged economy.

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death in the U.S. and worldwide. Most patients who develop lung cancer have a history of smoking cigarettes. However, about 1 in 10 lung cancer patients has no history of direct tobacco exposure. A majority of these patients are women and have a subtype of lung cancer with adenocarcinoma histology. It is believed that that these "never smokers" may have genes that predispose them to lung cancer. No such genes have yet been identified.
The purpose of this study is to determine if collecting information and blood from a group of people who never smoked but who have lung cancer is possible across the U.S.
Researchers will collect information on each patient's diagnosis and treatments. If the collection is successful, blood samples will be used for so-called "whole genome association studies" to look for differences between the genomes of never smokers with and without lung cancer. This may help to identify new genes, which may explain and predict why certain patients develop lung cancer without having smoked tobacco. This is the first step to establish strategies to prevent lung cancer or find people who are at high risk for this disease.

BERLIN — Merial Select confirmed this week it will be closing its Berlin doors effective next year.
Though the majority of Merial's approximately 45 employees are expected to lose their positions, town officials are optimistic that the facilities closing will not adversely affect Berlin.
Mayor Gee Williams compared Merial's shutting down to when the Tyson plant likewise left Berlin in 2003. That departure meant the termination of about 600 jobs. However, the town was able to weather the event relatively well, according to Williams, and the expectation is the same with Merial.
"It all depends on where the employees live," he said. "Years ago, when Tyson closed down, people were really concerned about what impact that would have. And out of all of the employees, and they had a lot of employees, almost all of them lived in southern Delaware and Virginia and other counties other than Worcester."
Williams expressed sympathy for the roughly 45 current employees who will be out of work next year but was certain that the closing will not be felt much in Berlin.
"Fortunately, for the town, I don't think it will have any significant impact on the town in any economic terms," he said.
One area where Merial staying open could have helped Berlin would be as a customer for town water and sewer service. Berlin's coverage doesn't currently extend that far, though Williams confirmed that the town had developed a plan to offer water and sewer to properties on the other side of Route 50. However, he explained that there's more than one plan on the board and Merial's departure does not throw a wrench into any gears.
"One plan was to go to Route 50 and stop, and the other plan was depending on if we had a commitment from one of the property owners on the other side," the mayor said.
Merial could have been one of those properties, Williams admitted, but is not the only potential customer on the northern side of Route 50. Town Administrator Tony Carson confirmed that there are properties in that area that have expressed in interest in receiving town water and sewer in the near future.
Williams added that Merial has been "on the fence" about leaving Berlin for at least a few months so that the facility closing has not caught the town by surprise.
Natasha Mahanes, director of North American Communications for Merial, released a statement about the Berlin branch's closing. Like Williams, she said that it was difficult to phase out the positions at the facility, but that Merial encourages any Berlin employees to apply for new positions within the company.
"The Berlin site currently employees approximately 45 people," she said. "While Merial regrets that a majority of those positions will be eliminated, we are making every effort to support employees through this transition. We will also welcome employees to apply for open positions at the Athens and Gainesville, Ga. sites."
According to a release from Merial, the "strategic decision" to close the Berlin facility is being made to reduce "manufacturing site network complexity and [to] utilize the capabilities of the existing plants more efficiently."
Merial specializes in animal health care, including domestic treatment for dogs and cats as well as vaccinations for cows, pigs and horses, among others. While doors are set to be closed in mid-2014, Merial plans on gradually transferring vaccine production actives over the next year-and-a-half away from the Berlin location. Merial employs roughly 5,600 people in more than 150 countries.

INDIANAPOLIS -- The Indianapolis Colts got an inspirational visit from ailing coach Chuck Pagano on Friday, two days before a game at New England.
Pagano "broke his team down" during practice, interim coach Bruce Arians said.
"It was a beautiful moment ... He came and enjoyed a good bunch of sunshine and talked to the guys and it was another beautiful day," Arians said.
Dozens of Indianapolis players have shaved their heads in a show of support for Pagano, who is undergoing treatment for a form of leukemia. Orange, a color used to raise awareness of the disease, is everywhere at the Colts' complex, and Chuckstrong has become a common catchphrase.
Earlier this month, Pagano's physician said the coach was in "complete remission," but still faced two more rounds of chemotherapy. The Colts hope to have Pagano back on the sideline Dec. 30, Indy's regular-season finale against Houston.
"That's the date," Arians said Friday. "The way he's going right now, it's going good."
Wide receiver Reggie Wayne said the visit from Pagano was welcome.
"It caught everybody by surprise," he said. "That was a great finishing to a great day of practice. Like I said, whenever he is able to address the team, give us a little words of wisdom, it's always a great feeling."
The Colts (6-3) have been one of the big surprises this season, with rookie quarterback Andrew Luck making the transition with relative ease so far. The team has rallied around Pagano, and Arians was asked if the Colts can get through the season running on emotion.
"No, I don't think emotion but I think they can with purpose, purpose being that they're not going to let each other down for one common goal," he said. " I've seen it so many times where a group of guys band together, and different slogans, 'Won't be denied,' this or that or whatever, they all come up with something, this is just, '1-2-3-Chuck."
Arians noted that Pagano passed out links of a chain to every player in the first week of the season and the message has taken hold: "Don't be the weak link. It's kind of a common thread throughout everything."
Also Friday, the Colts elevated cornerback Teddy Williams from the practice squad to the active roster, waiving cornerback Marshay Green in favor of a guy who didn't play college football.
Williams was a track and field standout at Texas-San Antonio and an undrafted free agent in 2010. He spent last season on the Cowboys' practice squad before he was waived in August. Williams, who ran the 100 meters in 9.9 seconds in college, was signed to the Colts' practice squad on Oct. 30.
Tight end Coby Fleener and cornerback Vontae Davis will not play against the Patriots (6-3) on Sunday.

Caught On Tape: Cop Beats On Man For Filming Him!
"A Las Vegas police officer under investigation for a videotaped beating of a man has been suspended with pay pending completion of an internal investigation, police said Saturday. On the night of March 20, Crooks, 36, was standing in his driveway while videotaping police as they investigated a reported burglary across the street. When Crooks refused to stop filming, Colling allegedly attacked him -- with much of the altercation recorded by the camera. Crooks' attorney, David Otto, on Thursday sent police a statement from Crooks, along with a demand for $500,000 to cover Crooks' medial care, pain and suffering. A planned lawsuit has not yet been filed." - LAS VEGA REVIEW

Singer Tulisa Contostavlos will return to court today as her trial over claims she assaulted a celebrity blogger resumes.
Writer Savvas Morgan alleges he suffered swelling to his eye after an alleged incident involving the 25-year-old at the V-Festival in Chelmsford, Essex, last year.
But the ex-N-Dubz star and former 'X Factor' judge has claimed she did not attack him and has been the victim of a vendetta, saying Mr Morgan had a "strange obsession" with her.
Contostavlos denies an assault charge linked to the alleged altercation last August.
The star attended the first two days of her trial at Chelmsford Magistrates' Court last month with her assistant, Gareth Varey, who is accused of threatening behaviour, which he also denies.
But district judge Angus Hamilton adjourned the case so that further witnesses can be called.
One of the outstanding issues surrounds the existence of a "lost" photograph of Mr Morgan's injuries.
During the trial, Contostavlos said she was disappointed "a playground slanging match" had reached court and was keen for it to be resolved adding: "This is my life on the line."
Other celebrities, including singer and rapper Misha B, Sugababes singer Mutya Buena, singer Alexandra Burke and rapper Wretch 32, all witnessed the incident but have not given evidence.
Contostavlos told the court that Mr Morgan had conducted a "vendetta" against her since an incident in which she asked security to remove him from a VIP area at the Whisky Mist nightclub in London's Mayfair.
She also outlined her suspicions that Mr Morgan was involved in the release of a sex tape of her online.
But she claimed she had no grudge against him, saying: "He was one of many."
Mr Morgan told the court that Contostavlos raised her fists in the air and was swinging her arms in a backstage area at the festival.
"Everyone was jumping around trying to get at me, there was a lot going on," he said.
Prosecutor Matthew McNiff said the incident happened at 12.30am on August 18 as Mr Morgan was about to leave. He said Contostavlos accused Mr Morgan of stalking her, and swore at him.
Contostavlos and Varey, 28, both of Royal Drive, Friern Barnet, north London, are both on unconditional bail.

Missing data modeling with MLR
Mplus Discussion
Latent Variable Mixture Modeling
posted on Tuesday, May 18, 2004 - 8:47 am
I recently asked you about missing data modeling with WLSMV, and you told me that modeling is conducted with a pairwise deletion based model. In factor mixture modeling with MLR, is the missing data method the same?
Linda K. Muthen
posted on Tuesday, May 18, 2004 - 9:56 am
No, for maxiumum likelihood, the more optimal method of MAR is used.
Katharina Schmid
posted on Thursday, March 09, 2006 - 4:26 am
My question is in relation to missing data modelling in Mplus.
I am aiming to estimate a SEMM model, with one categorical latent variable and 4 continuous latent variables. My data consists of 2000 observations, with no missing data on any of the binary indicators for the latent class variable, yet i have missing data on 2 of the continuous latent variables.
Hereby, there are a number of cases (approx. 200) who have missing data on every item on a scale (the items indicating a factor), given that respondents had to identify their nationality in order to be routed into a set of questions.
In other words, respondents who refused to indicate their nationality did not complete any of the items on the scale, yet there is data available for these respondents on the other continuous latents and the latent class variable of course.
WOuld appreciate any help on how Mplus can deal with this issue to help with model estimation.
many thanks
Bengt O. Muthen
posted on Thursday, March 09, 2006 - 6:49 am
Mplus would use all available data in line with handling missing data under the ML-MAR approach (see Little & Rubin's book). The question is if those refusing to give nationality are significantly different on other variables than those who agreed. If those differences can be predicted by variables that are not missing, MAR is motivated. If the reasons for refusing are related to what they would have answered on that set of questions, then you have non-ignorable missingness and MAR is not enough. Then, alternatives are hard to find, although "pattern-mixture" analysis is possible. See the Little-Rubin book again.

Last week, during the Street Car Super Nationals in Las Vegas, Drag Radial racer Eric Peterson's '69 Firebird went off line, hit the opposite wall, bounced back across the strip and caught fire. And then, The Burnout.
According to those on the scene, Peterson had been knocked out in the crash, the brakes locked up and the throttle was stuck open — the recipe for a helpless, smoky and ultimately fiery burnout. Drag racing in a seven-second Firebird? Not for the faint of heart. Thankfully, Peterson was not badly injured. (Thanks to Jimal for the tip!)

Martjintgen Aelmeers (d. 1562)
Martijntgen (van) Aelmeers, an Anabaptist martyr, known under different names: Martijne Amare, Martijntgen (van) Aelmeers, Martincke Aelmaers. She was a young unmarried woman, who was executed with six others at Hondschoote in Flanders, Belgium. Particulars of the execution are lacking, but it probably occurred on 20 April 1563. This martyr is listed twice by van Braght's Martyrs' Mirror: (a) D 297, E 655, where she is called Martijntgen Aelmeers; and (b) D 298, E 655, where her name is Martijne (Martijntgen) Amare. Bibliographie II, No. 16, wrongly identifies her with Marijn Amare (Marijn Euwouts), but this martyr died at Bruges in 1561. Martijntgen Aelmeers was the sister of the martyr Nicasen van Aelmeers. Until recently no particulars were known, the date of the execution usually being assumed to have been 20 April 1563. The records published in the Jaarboek show that her name was Martijnken Alcmaers, and that she was a daughter of Loys Alcmaers. She was a native of Steenwercke in Flanders, and the execution took place on 23 March 1562.

|The subject of this article was removed from World of Warcraft in patch 3.0.2.
As of patch 3.0, this bug has been removed from the game.
Caster stats was a term for tameable beasts which had higher than normal intellect and spirit when tamed, but lower than normal health, attack power, and armor. At earlier levels, the difference between a caster pet and a non-caster pet were not as pronounced as they were at high levels. As a result, the pet's attacks would become progressively less effective and its overall survivability progressively lower in relation to level; therefore, beasts with caster stats were generally avoided for taming.
Former caster pets:
- Carrion birds: Fire Roc
- Crocolisks: Mottled Drywallow Crocolisk
- Spiders: Krethis Shadowspinner, Lady Sathrah
- Wind serpents: Azzere the Skyblade, Cloud Serpent, Elder Cloud Serpent, Greater Thunderhawk, Hakkari Frostwing, Hakkari Sapper, Thunderhawk Cloudscraper, Thunderhawk Hatchling, Cobalt Serpent
- Warp stalkers: Warp Stalker (the level 63-64 variety in Terokkar Forest)

Duff man juice also adding to chronic shortage
Sweden's fertility clinics are racking up a serious backlog of people waiting for artificial insemination, due in part to a "spike" in demand from lesbian couples for vital supplies of man juice.
So bad have things got that prospective customers at Sahlgrenska University Hospital in Gothenburg are now forced to wait 18 months for treatment.
The problem, the Göteborgs-Posten explains, is that a 2005 law change granted "female same-sex couples" the right to fertility treatment at Swedish hospitals. Previously, this privilege extended only to married women or those who were "registered heterosexual partners".
Inger Bryman, Sahlgrenska's head of gynaecology and reproductive medicine, told the paper: "We had estimated an increase of around 25 couples per year after the law change. Now there are 90 couples in line."
Sweden's lesbians are not the sole cause of the sperm drought. Swedish law allows kids to learn their biological father's identity once they turn 18. This hasn't done much to encourage donors.
The main reason, though, is apparently duff sperm - "either related to deterioration while being frozen or to medical conditions".
The upshot of the Swedish sperm crisis is that couples are increasingly looking abroad for their impregnations, principally to Denmark and Finland. ®
Before you lot start demanding some form of hot Playmobil action to accompany this story, please note that we've already covered lesbian artificial insemination.

For a show that touts "the noble art of humbug," the musical "Barnum," now at the Mercury Theater, is remarkably free of humbug. Refreshingly straightforward, it seeks simply to entertain. As the show's namesake, the 19th century impresario P.T. Barnum, once said, "I don't believe in duping the public, but I believe in first attracting them and pleasing them." "Barnum" accomplishes that quite nicely, thanks to the tuneful music of Cy Coleman and lyrics by Michael Stewart, with the likable Gene Weygandt in the starring role and Cory Goodrich well cast as Barnum's wife, Charity.
The circus begins in the lobby as the costumed performers kibitz in the crowd of theatergoers lined up for free bags of tasty popcorn. Before those performers make their way to the stage, one may even take a seat next to you in the Mercury Theater's intimate 290-seat house. One of the strengths of this production, directed by L. Walter Stearns with musical direction by Eugene Dizon, is that it uses the Mercury's small space to its advantage, playing with scale in creative ways.
After all, "Barnum" premiered as a big Broadway show in 1980. And P.T. Barnum's name will forever be associated with over-the-top three-ring circuses — even though most of the musical takes place in the years that led up to those extravaganzas, a time when Barnum developed small variety troupes and museums of curiosities. So how to fit Jumbo the elephant onto the Mercury's modest stage or to showcase tiny Tom Thumb?
The production, with clever scenic design by Jacqueline and Richard Penrod, addresses the issue of scale effectively by keeping things relative. Tom Thumb first appears as a gracefully manipulated marionette before being embodied by Christian Libonati, whose stature is dwarfed by flanking performers on stilts. On the opposite end of the scale, Jumbo's enormous head unfurls as a swath of gray silk, suggesting a body larger than the theater itself.
All the performers, many of them Equity players, do their jobs capably, singing, dancing and often juggling, with some impressive acrobatics at the finale. Standing out are Weygandt and Goodrich, both with wonderful voices, as well as Donica Lynn as The Oldest Woman Alive and Summer Naomi Smart in the key role of Jenny Lind.
In 1850 the real P.T. Barnum paid Lind, a.k.a. the Swedish Nightingale, the then unheard of sum of $1,000 a night to perform throughout America. Lind, famous for her clear soprano voice and her devout character, used the money to endow Swedish charities. But in the musical version, Lind becomes something of a manipulative vixen, luring Barnum away from his loyal wife. This cooked-up conflict was a miscalculation on the part of book writer Mark Bramble, and it becomes even less believable when the conflict abruptly disappears after intermission. It is the show's major weakness. Other attempts to inject story — or at least history — into the show are more successful. The real P.T. Barnum was a complex character: not only an entertainer, Barnum was an abolitionist, a temperance speaker and the mayor of Bridgeport, Conn.
But in a musical like Barnum, it's okay for story to take a backseat to songs like "The Colors of My Life" and "Come Follow the Band," well sung and backed up by a sextet of sprightly instrumentalists led by Dizon. After all, the audience is there to see the circus.

Hi all,
I haven't been on in a while...
I found a iGesture Numpad w/black keyboard PS2(stock) in storage while cleaning out a PC part foot locker. Not the same one I have taken apart in some posts on fingerfans.
Working as far as I can tell. I plan on testing before I post this on eBay when I have some free time.
Keyboard is cracked on the side opposite the iGesture Numpad.
There is dust, but it will be cleaned with compressed air & alcohol swabs.
It even still has the original fingerworks sticker with serial number on the back of the keyboard.
Just providing a heads up before it goes up.
Still using my original iGesture Numpad, one I re-soldered.

Mo. AG Sues KC Hospice Over Honor Flight Funds
KANSAS CITY (AP) - Missouri's attorney general is suing a Kansas City hospice company for refusing to return nearly $40,000 that was intended to send elderly veterans to Washington, D.C.
Attorney General Chris Koster announced Thursday he had filed a lawsuit against Kendallwood Hospice Co. and had obtained a temporary restraining order freezing Honor Flight donations being held by the company.
Koster says Kendallwood agreed to hold the donations in a separate bank account, from which an Honor Flight official could withdraw funds to pay for veterans to travel to see memorials in Washington.
In February the hospice removed an Honor Flight official from the account's signature card, preventing the charity from accessing its funds. Koster says Kendallwood has refused repeated requests to return the money.
Kendallwood officials were not immediately available for comment.

Regular readers will know I LOVE the concept of Shellac (quick drying, long lasting) but quite frankly, I've tried it 3 times and now it just didn't last on me. Plus it dried my nails out so I won't be doing it again, especially since I've paid anything from £20-£50 for the treatment….
This kit sold out in the US when it was launched and arrived in the UK on the 7th March in Boots stores. May sees the launch of 12 new individual colours too.
This kit contains a PRO3060 LED Lamp, Colour Gel Polish, Primer, Buffer, Gel Cleanser, Wipe, Gel Base, Top Coat and Manicure Stick and costs £85.
You get a high shine nail polish finish which lasts up to 14 days without chipping. AND – it comes off with acetone nail polish remover which is amazing and pretty fuss free!
One of my big reasons for not painting my nails is that I always end up smudging it as it dries so I would SO invest £85 in this kit, and make sure my nails were chip free for 2 weeks! It's far cheaper than going to the salon anyway.
I'll see if I can get my paws on one of these to test.
What do you think of this home gel manicure system?

First call received about a week ago, asking for family member who had passed away about 5 weeks previous. Caller stated they were following up with regard to a vacation time share the family member had purchased. I did not mention my relative's demise and on that occasion, I merely announced they had made no such purchase (I knew he had not) and hung up. Today they called again asking for the same family member and once more referred to the unused-but-purchased-vacation. Once more I explained that I would know if they had made such a purchase. This caller said "Well he did and just forgot about it." I went on to explain that the individual could not have purchased such a vacation as they were well aware they did not hold a passport. With that the caller ended the call. I am considering calling the police to report what sounds like a scam -- especially as they do not identify the company they are with.

Carpet Cleaning Carwoola – We are a leading name in the carpet cleaning industry. With years of experience and expertise, Carpet Cleanings Melbourne is a company which believes in excellence. Moreover, we have an expert staff that is always available to cater to your needs.
If your dirty carpets are giving you a hard time and you want to get them cleaned, look no further because we are here to help you with our 100% satisfactory services. According to a study on indoor pollution, it was revealed that dirty carpets are the main source of polluting the air inside your house.
Because your carpets are prone to attract a number of dust particles, germs and other pollutants every day! After some time, dirt, debris, and bacteria get deep inside your carpets. Also, once the bacteria enter there, it starts breeding. This results in millions of bacteria on your carpet within no time.
You sit on those carpets and your children also play on the same dirty carpets, which undoubtedly leads to a number of diseases and infections. These dirt particles also release into the air, degrading the quality of the air in your house and obstructing the airflow. To get rid of all of these problems and to make your house a safe and healthy environment, you need to get your carpets cleaned professionally.
Carpet Cleanings Melbourne offers 100% reliable and efficient cleaning services for your carpets and rugs. We know that your carpet is one of the most expensive investments in your house. And so we take extra care to clean it and make it look as good as new.
If you think that vacuuming the carpet is enough, after all why take up the burden of getting a professional cleaning when you can do it yourself, you need to think again. Vacuuming will definitely remove all the dust and particles from the top layer of your carpet. But what about the dirt and debris that are inside the carpet? Furthermore, what about the millions of different microorganisms that have now made a permanent home in your carpet? Would you let your children play on a carpet that hosts so many germs? Of course no! We all care about our family's safety first. And when it comes to children, we need to be extra careful.
But if you are still not sure about why a professional carpet cleaning is necessary, read on.
A dirty carpet will definitely be a dull spot in your house. A clean carpet, on the other hand, will make your house look better and give it a healthier look.
When there is a lot of dirt on your carpet, it starts to look dull and flat. If you don't get it cleaned for quite some time, the dirt may even cause the carpet fibres to split and break. And ultimately you will have to buy a new carpet. But professional cleaning will save you tons of money by preventing this from happening and making your carpet look brand new once again. Also, while we are cleaning your carpets, you will have a lot of spare time on hand which would have otherwise gone wasted on hours of carpet shopping.
Getting your carpet cleaned will help increase its lifespan which is reduced by the continuous build-up of dirt and debris.
And the most important thing- You will save yourself from getting infections and illnesses the reason of which is dust, countless particle pollutants, and allergens that get deep inside a dirty carpet. The healthy air flow will help in better ventilation and improved breathing.
Well, the number one thing to do is to call us and book an appointment. You can call us on the phone numbers provided below. If you prefer online booking, we provide that option as well. Just click on the link that says 'book here' on our website. It will take you through a series of simple steps. When you complete them, your appointment will be fixed.
After your appointment is fixed, you will get a confirmation call and email by our team who will then reach your place at the appointed time and date. This inspection will involve taking a thorough look at your carpet and noting down its type, material, colour, fabric, elasticity, length etc. So that we can devise a perfect cleaning procedure for your carpet.
During this inspection, you can ask us whatever questions you may have. Our team at carpet cleaning Carwoola will have a discussion with you about the cleaning process and only after your approval, we will move onto the next step.
To prepare the area for cleaning, we will safely shift all the furniture.
Next, we will vacuum your carpet thoroughly and get rid of all the loose dirt and debris.
After vacuuming, we will apply a non-toxic stain removing agent on your carpet to remove whatever stains there might be. So don't worry if you have pee, blood, vomit or any other stains that are difficult to remove through normal cleaning. We will take care of it.
Once the stains are no more there, it's time for some deep cleaning. For this, we offer you a few methods including hot water extraction, carpet shampooing, dry cleaning, and others. The choice we make will be based on the type of your carpet and your personal preference.
In hot water extraction, we clean the carpet by injecting hot water and some cleaning agents into the carpet fibres at high pressure. This loosens up the deeply embedded debris and germs. Hot water extraction (also popular as steam cleaning) is followed by a powerful vacuum which completely removes all the dirt, dust and germs.
Once your carpet is completely dry, we will apply a biodegradable stain repellent on your carpet to make it resistant to stains. So no more worries. Even if your cat decides to pee on the carpet as soon as we leave, it won't cause any permanent stain. Just wiping it off will be enough.
After the cleaning process, we will also use an eco-friendly deodorizer on your carpet to keep it smelling fresh for the next 6 months.
We hope you learned a great deal about your carpets today. So if you want to get an efficient carpet cleaning Carwoola service, call us right now and make your house a healthier place to live in. Book an appointment now by giving us a call on 1300 309 913 to avail of our special services. Moreover, our experts are available 24*7 to assist you anytime.

Guerrero brings even keel, dedication to Dodgers
Cuban signee hopes to be Los Angeles' Opening Day second baseman
LOS ANGELES -- Yasiel Puig and Alexander Guerrero are Cuban and Dodgers, and that's about where the similarities end.
We've all seen the 23-year-old Puig's unique act, from his reckless enthusiasm and production that took MLB by storm last year, to the immaturity that resulted in benching and arrests.
Guerrero is the anti-Puig. He's 27, soft spoken, respectful of the media. He's married and a father of two, hopeful his family will soon be able to leave his homeland and, if his game is ready, watch him play second base for the Dodgers.
Signed to a four-year, $28 million contract, Guerrero was initially expected to be the starting second baseman Opening Day. He said that's still his goal, although he admits the conversion from his natural position of shortstop hasn't been easy.
"The positioning, the ball off the bat, the movement -- it's all reversed," Guerrero said Friday while participating in the club's annual community caravan with Puig and 16 other Dodgers. "But anybody that plays shortstop can play any position in the infield."
Maybe so, but the Dodgers signed reclamation project Chone Figgins last week, pursued Michael Young until he retired this week and have kicked around the idea of defensive whiz Miguel Rojas, along with Justin Sellers and Dee Gordon, just in case Guerrero isn't ready.
"I think so," Guerrero said about starting Opening Day in Australia. "Ultimately, it's a team decision. On my side, I'm working as hard as I can."
Introducing No. 7, Alexander Guerrero. pic.twitter.com/NL9GgKBwzm- Los Angeles Dodgers (@Dodgers) January 31, 2014
Playing second base can't be harder than leaving his country and his family behind, making three attempts to escape the island nation, eventually succeeding by boat with his brother and two friends.
They landed in Haiti, where he established residency to be allowed into the United States. The Dodgers were hoping a stint in the Dominican Winter League would prime Guerrero for the big leagues, only for left hamstring injuries to derail the plan. He said he's been working out for five weeks with no further hamstring issues.
He said it required talking to family and friends, as well as sitting out the 2013 season. The scouting reports label Guerrero as an offensive player. He's a three-time All-Star in Cuba with a .308 career average, 102 home runs and 392 RBIs.
"I saw my future would be here," he said of his decision to leave Cuba. "I was thinking about it for four years. There are a lot of Cuban stars here."
And, as he points out, he's not like Puig.
"He has a different style," Guerrero said. "I'm more calm in the game. Puig is aggressive with a lot of energy. I've even keel."
So, are there other players in Cuba more like Puig?
"He's a little different," Guerrero said in Spanish, although he has begun English lessons.

Major League Baseball's enduring fascination with bobbleheads is, by and large, played out by now, but we'll grant an exception for this August 30, when the Dodgers hold their first-ever Vin Scully Bobblehead Night and give away this reasonable likeness of the Hall of Fame announcer, now in his 63rd year of calling Dodger games. In fact, you won't be able to buy single-game tickets for that night. You can only get a ticket by purchasing it as part of a special 10-game ticket plan. (After that, it's up to you how much you want to hawk it for on StubHub.)
OK, but after this one, there are no more bobblehead promotions worth dignifying. (Probably.)

A health alert has been issued in parts of the U.K. warning parents over an outbreak of a polio-type virus that can easily be spread through coughs and sneezes.
Cases of enterovirus D68 (EV-D68), which has no known cure or vaccine, have more than doubled in the last year.
Linked to cases of very young children being left unable to walk, the virus can leave kids fighting to breathe or swallow.
Although no cases have been confirmed in Northern Ireland, the public are advised to take good hygiene precautions when sneezing and coughing, wash their hands and avoid close contact with people with colds and flu-like illnesses.
"The Public Health Agency is not aware of any cases of neurological illness due to enterovirus d68 in Northern Ireland at present. We will continue to monitor the situation," said a Public Health Agency spokesperson.
It is understood four young victims have been hospitalised in the UK, with a boy and primary-aged girl in the Edinburgh area in intensive care for more than a month.
The outbreak follows one in Wales during the winter of 2014-15.
Public Health England has now published a risk assessment stating the virus is associated with 'polio-like' neurological symptoms.
Last year only 14 cases of EV-D68 were detected in the UK, but this year has already seen 38 lab-confirmed infections.
Most young patients have been admitted to hospital with respiratory problems, with some suffering neurological issues.
While doctors have been notified, affected families fear too little has been done to alert the public.
One source, said: "There's a real concern the spread of this virus isn't being made public.
"GPs need to know this virus is out there so they can recognise symptoms and make quick referrals. Symptoms seem to start with a sore throat but, within a day or so, they are left unable to breathe as their muscles stop working and they become floppy.
"It's a terrifying disease that leaves a lot of the children permanently paralysed. Health officials seem to be really keen this is kept secret but parents and doctors need to know."
NHS Lothian incident management team chair Dr Kate Templeton confirmed: "We have been investigating a possible cluster of patients infected with enterovirus D68. The patients are all now testing negative for the virus."
EV-D68 is linked to a phenomenon called acute flaccid paralysis that causes patients' muscles to rapidly weaken.
If the muscles needed to breathe fail, patients can die.
Children are more vulnerable because they have not built up immunity to such viruses.
An outbreak of EV-D68 in the US killed 14 people and infected 1,153 between August 2014 and January last year. Public Health England has confirmed the virus is circulating but said cases are in line with expected numbers.
Many people who contract the virus only ever have mild cold-like symptoms and do not suffer paralysis.
The public are advised to take good hygiene precautions to minimise the risk of infection.

Kecksburg UFO Crash, Tim Printy and Steven Paquette
6 comments:
"And it seems that the spelling of his first name was screwed up by the reporter as well (at least that seems to be the most logical assumption here)."
There is one BB page referring to him as 'Steven'. The others are 'Stephen'.
The BB documents referring to Paquette are from Pittsburgh, Eastmont, and Presto, PA. Kecksburg is a short drive SE of them.
There was a 1963 incident in New Hampton, NH in BB.
Things I learned: there are way fewer New Hamptons in New England than I'd have guessed.
- September 24, 2011 at 6:36 PM
- Tim Printy said...
Actually, the document reads North Hampton and not New Hampton. Apparently, Kevin misquoted the teletype in his books. There is a Northampton, MA.

Good God All -
It is North Hampton... one of these days I'm going to learn to read. I could have sworn that it said New Hampton, and I looked at this thing a dozen times over the last few days.
- September 24, 2011 at 7:25 PM
There is a Northampton, MA.
- September 24, 2011 at 7:34 PM
A google search, like so:
"stephen paquette" "northampton"
The first hit is this page. The second hit is to a University of Massachusetts Amherst class of 1962 yearbook, listing STEPHEN R. PAQUETTE 485 Bridge Road, Northampton, Massachusetts. Looks as if Paquette is the blond guy, 3rd from the left, bottom of page.
(I can't help it. I'm flawed)
- September 26, 2011 at 1:35 PM
- Lord Balto said...
I should point out that Stephen R Paquette was in the Granville Air Society in his junior and senior years after being in the Air Cadet Squadron in his freshman and sophomore years, in case there's any question about whether he had an interest in the air force, though he majored in chemical engineering.

THE DEADBOLT: Jim, we haven't seen you in a while. How's life been?
Carrey: "Great, man. I am having so much fun right now. I am really in a good place in my life. I still have this childlike joy in doing my job, and that's really the greatest gift for me."
THE DEADBOLT: What do and what don't you eat then?
Carrey: "Generally, no wheat, no dairy for me, for the most part. I do go crazy once in a while and have a pizza. I am not religious about it, but I do believe that the best fuel for humans are veggies and protein. It makes you feel great."
