For Second Consecutive Year, Two Sapiens Customers Receive the CELENT Model Insurer Award
Sapiens IDIT Software Suite users, Oranta Insurance Company and L&T General Insurance Company, recognized for demonstrating the year's top insurance software initiatives
New Jersey – March 7th, 2013 – Sapiens International Corporation, (NASDAQ and TASE: SPNS), a global provider of innovative software solutions for the financial services, announced today that its clients Oranta Insurance Company and L&T General Insurance Company Limited have received recognition as a 2013 Model Insurers by leading research and advisory firm Celent. Now in its seventh year, the Celent Model Insurer Awards Program is designed to recognize organizations which demonstrate the year's top technology initiatives. This is the second consecutive year that multiple Sapiens clients have received this prestigious recognition from Celent.
Oranta was recognized in the Policy Administration category and received the Model Insurer recognition based on its work with Sapiens and the implementation of the Sapiens IDIT Software Suite. The project focused on the modernization and centralization of policy administration as a key component of Oranta's comprehensive business process re-engineering initiative.
Receiving the award in the Underwriting category, L&T Insurance was recognized for its implementation of the Sapiens IDIT Software Suite. The company implemented a web-based policy administration system with detailed structure and reporting capabilities, allowing L&T Insurance to take the lead in the Indian motor insurance market with regards to pricing and underwriting.
"Celent is pleased to present this award to both Oranta Insurance and L&T Insurance. Among the many excellent nominations this year, these two companies exemplified best practices of automation of processes, improved channel management, and positioning technology for reuse," says Karen Monks, Analyst with Celent's Insurance Group. "Economic challenges have placed a growing focus on operational effectiveness and differentiation to achieve sustainable profitability and growth. Having an effective vision, technology, business practices and business partner is more important than ever."
"We couldn't be more pleased with this year's Celent Model Insurer results. For the second year in a row we have the opportunity to congratulate two Sapiens clients on their wins. We are extremely proud that the Oranta Insurance's and L&T Insurance's recognition comes as a direct result of our work with their respective organizations," commented Roni Al-Dor, Sapiens President and CEO. "We look forward to continuing our work with both insurers and hope to have the opportunity to congratulate even more Sapiens clients next year — making it three in a row."

History and Old Stuff...
A century ago, the White House Cookbook by Mrs. F.L. Gillette and Hugo Ziemann could be ordered by mail from the Sears and Roebuck Catalog. Many homemakers relied on it for trustworthy home remedies, as well as good recipes. The following health tips are from the 1899 edition.
Don't sleep in a draught.
Don't go to bed with cold feet.
Don't stand over hot air registers.
Don't eat what you do not need, just to save it.
Don't sleep in a room without ventilation of some kind.
Don't stuff a cold lest you should be next obliged to starve a fever.
Don't sit in a damp or chilly room without a fire.
Don't try to get along without flannel underclothing in winter.
Sufferers from asthma should get a muskrat skin & wear it over their lungs with the fur side next to the body. It will bring certain relief.
Take common rock salt, as used for salting down pork or beef, dry in an oven, then pound it fine & mix with spirits of turpentine in equal parts; put it in a rag, wrap it around the parts affected; as it gets dry put on more, and in twenty four hours you are cured. The felon will be dead.
* According to Webster's Dictionary, a felon is an "acute and painful inflamation of the tissues of a finger or toe, usually near the nail."
Wash with water staurated with common washing soda, and let it dry without wiping; repeat frequently until they disappear, or pass a pin through the wart and hold one end of it over the flame of a candle or lamp until the wart fires by the heat, and it will disappear.
Take a half pound of dry hoarhound herbs, one pod of red pepper, four tablespoons of ginger, boil all in three quarts of water, then strain, add one teaspoon of good, fresh tar and a pound of sugar. Boil slowly and stir often, until it is reduced to one quart of syrup. When cool, bottle for use. Take one or two teaspoons 4 to 6 times a day.
The 1887 version of the White House Cookbook is available as a free download on Project Gutenberg. This version, the first edition by Mrs. Gillette, contained some photographs and illustrations of First Ladies, but in later editions, the cookbook was co-authored by Hugo Ziemann who had been the White House steward under Grover Cleveland.

HBO ending 'Enlightened' after 2 seasons
March 20, 2013
LOS ANGELES (AP) — HBO says the Laura Dern series "Enlightened" isn't coming back for a third season.
In a statement Tuesday, the premium cable channel said it was proud of the show, and called canceling it a "very difficult decision."
"Enlightened," created by Dern and her co-star Mike White, was critically acclaimed but low-rated.
Last year, Dern won a Golden Globe for best TV comedy actress for her role as a manic-depressive who becomes an activist. The "Enlightened" cast also included Diane Ladd and Luke Wilson

Defending Free Speech
Letter from the president
Ten years ago, we achieved a major First-Amendment legal victory over the Michigan Education Association.
In 2001, the MEA's then-president Luigi Battaglieri told reporters, "Frankly, I admire what they [the Mackinac Center] have done," referring to our ability to put our research into lawmakers' hands. Then he sued us after we quoted him in news and fundraising letters. He demanded that we give the union our mailing lists and stop repeating his news conference remarks.
Stay Engaged
The MEA's tack mimicked that of southern segregationists in the 1950s, who demanded that the NAACP reveal its membership lists so that members could more easily be identified, harassed and intimidated. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled this would be a bad idea, and that the NAACP's members had a right to privacy.
In 2004, a three-judge panel of the Michigan Court of Appeals supported this reasoning by unanimous rule: The union was not entitled to our mailing lists, nor could it prevent us from repeating its president's public pronouncements.
Those rulings stand, but our opponents are trying new ways to silence us.
- Michigan Congressman Sander Levin formally asked the IRS to investigate the Mackinac Center for imagined lobbying misdeeds. Later, we learned that government officials had used the IRS at the same time to obstruct groups devoted to free markets. No journalist covering Rep. Levin's request asked if he routinely requests IRS investigations, or if he singled us out.
- The Left recently popularized the term "dark money" to refer to private, voluntary contributions to "social welfare" and charitable groups that promote ideas they believe will improve society. Multiple news outlets reliably repeated the phrase, making noble citizen generosity sound sinister.
- New IRS rules would redefine as "political" certain nonpartisan speech and activities routinely pursued by 501(c)(4) tax-designated groups. The change would likely reduce support for citizen engagement and education. While the Mackinac Center isn't one of those groups, I believe our kind of organization may be the next target.
- Baseless accusations are now chronic. Charges of "tax fraud" and illegal lobbying too often need no substantiation, but are repeated by professional journalists.
- Government officials undertook secret investigations against citizens engaged in routine political activity in favor of important labor and fiscal reforms in Wisconsin. (Our friend Eric O'Keefe, a man who has aided good reforms in Michigan and elsewhere, risks retaliation by fighting back, as The Wall Street Journal recently reported.)
- New progressive groups launched simultaneous, multi-state attacks on think tanks, including the Mackinac Center. Their purpose? To delegitimize activities such as presenting economic research to policymakers. They issued sloppy, plagiarism-ridden attacks on us. Yet outlet after outlet credulously republished the stolen words and ideas as original.
All of this has one, simple purpose: Silence us by scaring away supporters and making people doubt our credibility.
They try to squelch our voice while their friends compel millions of workers to fund unions' political speech. (Our labor policy work helps to correct that injustice.)
Defending free speech wasn't one of the original main purposes of the Mackinac Center, but it's become a cost of doing business.

To those who belong to the Joss Whedon cult, "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." is enough to cause some major anxiety right now.
ABC's new comics-inspired spy caper got off to a fine start during premiere week, but on Tuesday night, despite a hinted-at cameo from Samuel L. Jackson, it lost more than a third of its audience of adults ages 18 to 49 compared with the debut, according to Nielsen.
That's enough to make fans wonder if writer-producer Whedon's TV curse will remain intact.
Whedon made his name with "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Angel," shows that established his ability to bend and mix genres in wry, pop-savvy...

NEW YORK — Playing dress-up or running around the park, kids can be so darn cute. Until it's 3 a.m. and they won't go the (bleep) to sleep.
NEW YORK — Playing dress-up or running around the park, kids can be so darn cute. Until it's 3 a.m. and they won't go the (bleep) to sleep.
The F-bomb plea on the minds of every parent at one point or another is the title of a buzz magnet of a book parody written in kid-friendly rhyme. Beware, parents, it's decidedly unworthy of a bedtime read aloud.
Not yet out, the 32-pager from a tiny Brooklyn publisher has hit No. 1 on Amazon.com and has sold more than 100,000 copies in pre-orders since it surfaced less than a month ago. After bootleg copies leaked, Akashic Books moved up publication from October to June 14, for Father's Day.
Film rights have already been sold, though adaptations should be intriguing. A British publisher, Canongate, is putting out the book simultaneously with U.S. release, including the former commonwealth countries of Australia, India and South Africa. Publishers in China are interested. How does the F-bomb translate, anyway?
All this for what amounts to a lament put to picture book illustrations (by Ricardo Cortes) at a suggested retail price of $14.95. Here's a sample: "All the kids in day care are in dreamland. The froggie has made its last leap. Hell no, you can't go to the bathroom. You know where you can go? The (bleep) to sleep."
Only the book uses the real word in full. A lot. On just about every page, in fact, with other bad words thrown in for good measure.
The spoof was written by novelist and poet Adam Mansbach, whose 3-year-old, Vivien, used to be a night owl but has turned the corner on the sleep thing.
Mansbach, who just completed two years as a visiting professor at Rutgers, is as stunned as anyone at the raw nerve he has touched with humor among parents and people who buy gifts for parents — and for petrified parents-in-waiting.
"Initially the audience was me and my wife," he said. "It captures the frustration of being in a room with a kid and feeling like you may actually never leave that room again, that you may spend the rest of your life in that dark room, trying to get your kid to go to sleep."
Mansbach had John Murphy at hello. The computer engineer in Lebanon, N.H., plans to give the book to a friend who's about to become a dad.
"Yup, the buzz got me," Murphy said. "I actually don't have any kids myself, so maybe it's cruel of me, but I hear him getting some rather gleeful warnings from people who already have kids about how he can kiss goodbye his sleep and free time. I thought a little levity might be appreciated."
Mansbach admits that when it comes to bedtime, he's not exactly on par with his partner, Victoria. "I probably only put my daughter to sleep 25 percent of the time. I should come clean about that," he said.
But he still knows of what he writes. Like so many kids, Vivien's brain "couldn't spin down, so she would lie there and all this stuff she heard during the day or the week, or in the last six months, would sort of bubble up," he said.
"There were those moments, when she's not rolling around, sitting up," Mansbach continued. "Her breathing got slow and I'd convince myself, this is it. Then I'd make that fatal mistake, trying to sneak out early. You know you shouldn't, but you really want to get out of there. And she'd wake up."
Is he a parenting manual person? What about sleep training? Crying it out? Modified crying it out?
Not for Vivien, Mansbach said. "We were certainly aware of that but we could never really bring ourselves to do it." Turns out the sleep thing cleared when his toddler dropped her nap.
Brad Wilkening in Chicago is about to become a dad for the first time. Surrounded by people delivering horror stories, he ordered the book for a laugh. "It almost seems like there's some gang initiation phase to parenthood," he said. "I like things that are over-the-top funny."
Vivien may be sleeping just fine, but Mansbach said he's still not getting enough shut-eye. "At this point it's this crazy book keeping me awake."
Open Road Integrated Media, a digital publisher, will release the electronic version of "Go the (Bleep) to Sleep" on June 14, the same day at the print version.

Alfred Sanzari Enterprises, owner and manager of Heights Plaza in Hasbrouck Heights, announced Monday that the Leanza & Agrapidis P.C. law firm has renewed its lease and expanded its space at the office building.
The law firm will now occupy nearly 4,000 square feet at the 777 Terrace Ave. site, Hackensack-based Sanzari said in a news release. The transaction was negotiated in-house by Sanzari, while Graham "Chip" Conklin of Savills Studley represented the law firm.
"We have been a tenant at Heights Plaza for 10 years, and the building's excellent location and proximity to major highways have proven advantageous to both our clients and staff members," Evans Agrapidis, one of Leanza & Agrapidis' founding partners, said in the release. "Our firm is experiencing steady, sustainable growth and this expansion allows us to continue that growth in an environment conducive to providing first-rate legal services to our clients."
Heights Plaza is a 200,000-square-foot, six-story Class A office building.
"Having a leading law firm renew and expand its commitment at Heights Plaza reaffirms the property's attractiveness as a premier Bergen County office address," Jerry L. Barta, Alfred Sanzari Enterprises' vice-president/director of leasing and marketing, said in a statement. "By virtue of its location, design and amenities, Heights Plaza is an excellent choice for small and mid-sized office tenants in a wide range of industries. We look forward to continuing our relationship with Leanza & Agrapidis for many years to come."

Walker leads late rally but No. 10 Texas A&M women fall short in 70-66 loss to No. 8 Kentucky
- Image 1 of 2
- Image 2 of 2
COLLEGE STATION, Texas – Texas A&M was struggling offensively late in the game, so coach Gary Blair told freshman Courtney Walker she had to make something happen.
Walker scored 20 points, six in the final 2 minutes, but it wasn't enough for the 10th-ranked Aggies in a 70-66 loss to No. 8 Kentucky on Monday night.
"None of our offense was working," Blair said. "(Kelsey) Bone was getting double-teamed and turning the ball over. I just told (Walker) to do her best Michael Jordan act, and she was doing it. She gave us a chance at the end."
DeNesha Stallworth had 12 points, 12 rebounds and a school-record seven blocks to lead the Wildcats.
Walker scored four quick points, the last two when she drove hard to the basket for a layup, to trim Texas A&M's deficit to 66-64 with about a minute remaining.
"I was trying to be aggressive," the soft-spoken Walker said.
Kentucky (23-3, 11-2 SEC) missed a 3-pointer as the shot clock expired, but it bounced off the rim and Stallworth batted the rebound to Bria Goss for an easy layup that made it 68-64.
Kentucky coach Matthew Mitchell was relieved to get a little cushion with that play.
"I didn't know if we could stop Courtney Walker again," he said. "It was a really impressive stretch she had there."
Walker was fouled on a made jump shot with 4 seconds left and purposely missed the ensuing free throw. But Goss grabbed the rebound and hit two free throws to seal it.
Texas A&M (20-6, 10-2) lost for the first time since a 65-62 defeat Jan. 10 at Kentucky in the first-ever meeting between the teams.
The Aggies reeled off eight straight wins after that, before Kentucky extended its winning streak to four games with Monday's win.
"It was just a tough loss," Texas A&M's Kristi Bellock said. "We're very upset with ourselves and how much harder we could have played from tip-off. It's a learning experience and something to look at film and get better from. We're a work in progress and we're still working and we're not done yet."
Kentucky had just finished a big run when the Aggies went on one of their own, using a 16-6 spurt to cut the lead to 64-60 with about 4½ minutes remaining. Kentucky's offense went cold during that stretch and the Wildcats didn't score for 3 minutes.
Walker had six points to power the run for the Aggies.
Texas A&M got within two early in the second half before Kentucky went on a 16-4 run to push the lead to 58-44 midway through the period. The Aggies went without scoring for more than 5 minutes and had four turnovers to help the Wildcats build the lead.
Bone, who won Southeastern Conference player of the week honors after scoring 31 points in the Aggies' last game, was held to nine points with 10 rebounds on Monday.
"We just tried to swarm her and get as many help defenders as we could," Kentucky's A'dia Mathies said.
Mathies added 13 points, all in the second half, for the Wildcats. Kastine Evans scored 12 and Samarie Walker had nine points and 11 rebounds.
The Aggies committed 18 turnovers that led to 29 points for Kentucky.
Bellock had 12 points and 15 rebounds for A&M, and Adrienne Pratcher scored 12.
Texas A&M jumped out to a 9-2 lead and was up by six points with about 14 minutes left in the first half. The Wildcats used a 19-6 run to overcome the deficit and take a 28-21 advantage with 6 minutes left before halftime. Walker and Janee Thompson scored six points apiece during that span, and the Aggies had three turnovers.
Kentucky led 40-34 at halftime.

Microsoft paves the way for more connections between PCs and the Web
A week after Microsoft took the wraps off Windows Longhorn, software developers are cogitating on one key question: What's the killer app?
At its Professional Developers Conference in Los Angeles last week, Microsoft released to 7,000 developers a technical preview version of Longhorn, the code name for a new version of the Windows desktop operating system that's due in three years. It's a long lead time for testing a product, but then, there's a lot of new technology in Longhorn.
"We're trying to acclimate developers to our concepts, so by the time we're ready to ship beta-quality bits, they're in the swing of things," says Microsoft chief technical officer Craig Mundie. A beta is due next year. Assuming it takes a couple of years to develop apps on Longhorn's programming model, releasing an early version "increases the probability that lots of interesting apps will be ready to ship with Longhorn," he says.
Longhorn is a "platform shift" on the order of the move from early versions of Windows to Windows 95, or the advent of the Web browser, Mundie says. Microsoft is introducing the first new Windows application programming interface in a decade, called WinFX, which will be used to program everything in the Longhorn operating system, including three technologies called Avalon, Indigo, and WinFS. "We only get a new platform in this industry every 15 to 20 years," Mundie says. "We're not just showing the next instance of our operating system but signaling a move in programming. New platforms are driven from the grassroots level by a couple of killer apps."
What those will be is a big, open question. Microsoft needs Longhorn to succeed to improve PC sales, which are forecast to grow just 8% this year, according to market researcher Gartner. That's hurting growth at Microsoft, which gets about two-thirds of its revenue from desktop versions of Windows and sales of its Office suite. Windows revenue didn't budge from a year ago in Microsoft's first quarter ended Sept. 30, and Office sales inched up just 1%. With the delivery of Longhorn's three subsystems--Avalon, a slick new presentation graphics layer; Indigo, built-in Windows technology for writing secure, reliable Web services; and WinFS, a relational database file system that's supposed to make searching for and grouping documents more natural--Microsoft is trying to persuade its vast developer market to come up with fast, interactive client apps that interact more seamlessly with data from the Net.
"Most people are seeing servers doing all the processing and the browser being a dumb terminal," says Kevin Lynch, chief technology officer at Macromedia Inc. The Web is "great for viewing documents, but it doesn't take advantage of your personal computer as well as it could." By year's end, Macromedia plans to release Central, an application development environment for building smart-client PC apps that consume online data. Longhorn could make writing those apps easier, Lynch says.
Using WinFX, developers could use just a few commands to call search features in WinFS, vector graphics capabilities in Avalon, or Web services in Indigo. Amazon.com Inc. last week demonstrated a prototype application built using the new APIs that downloads catalog data about digital cameras to a user's hard drive for graphical searching and grouping of products, then sends orders back to Amazon's site. Longhorn could provide new capabilities for developers whose sites connect with Amazon's store, says Amazon chief technology officer Allan Vermeulen. Amazon collects a finder's fee on sales through those sites and may charge developers to license its software in the future.

EE, the only UK carrier to launch 4G LTE services thus far, has unleashed its SIM-only plans. Pricing starts at £21 a month with a 500MB data allowance, and tops at £36 for a 5GB upgrade to further increase the capabilities of the 4G speeds. So are these prices any better than what's already available at the carrier?
SIM-only plans with EE are available as 12-month contracts, and each plan includes unlimited calls and texts (much like the more expensive phone-inclusive options available). Unfortunately, you'll be required to pick up a 4G capable handset, but at least it's an ption for those who may have already made the purchase with an unlocked HTC 8X or Lumia 920.
We covered EE's SIM-only plans when the network was officially launched earlier this year. The company has since experienced issues with launching its cheaper plans due to apparent network testing requirements. It'll be interesting to see how consumers respond to the new plans, especially with the negative reception EE has experienced so far.

Stockman---who I think the world of- said this:
The policy that they're talking about right now is the same thing we heard in 2001, 2002, and 2003. And he needs to clearly say that we're not going to attack Iran. We're not going to permit Israel to attack Iran. They are not part of the axis of evil. They're part of the axis of medieval.
Clip here and I thought a nice companion to jdargis's link above.
Of course, here is what our politicans have to say...
Barack Obama would supply Israel with bunker-busters and refueling planes if Bibi promised to delay an Iran attack until after the presidential election.

BRISTOL, Tenn. – With the outdoor track and field season nearly complete, seven King University athletes have earned USTFCCCA All-Southeast Region honors. Three Tornado women's athletes garnered recognition while four men earned the distinction that was headlined by Justin Newring, Brent Swiney and Maegan Henry.
Newring earned All-Region in both the 200 and 400 meters. The Knoxville, Tenn., native's 200 meter time of 21.40 is the best time in Conference Carolinas this season and is also an NCAA provisional qualifying time. He also holds the fastest 400 meter time of 48.48 in Conference Carolinas this season. The junior earned All-Region honors in the 200 and 4x400 meter relay in 2013 as well as earned recognition in the 200, 400 and 4x400 meter relay during the indoor season.
Swiney, native of Bristol, Va., has set both the 800 and 1500 meter school records en route to garnering All-Region accolades in both events. His 800 meter time of 1:55.57 is third in Conference Carolinas and his 1500 meter time of 3:52.25 is second in the league this season. The sophomore's 1500 meter time is also an NCAA provisional qualifying mark. Swiney earned All-Region honors during the indoor season in the mile.
A native of Bluefield, Va., Henry earned All-Region honors in both the hammer throw and shot put after she repeated as Conference Carolinas champion in both this year. Her conference champion shot put of 14.04 meters gave her an NCAA provision qualifying mark and set a new school record in the process, becoming the first Tornado to eclipse 14 meters. The junior was also victorious in the hammer throw with a school record toss of 44.43 meters, another school record. She has the top marks in Conference Carolinas in both events as well. This marks the second straight year Henry earned All-Region honors in both events. She also earned All-Region honors in both the shot put and the weight throw during the indoor season.
On the men's side, Reggie Warren and Jeremy Stamper also earned All-Region honors. Warren, a junior from Knoxville, Tenn., earned All-Region honors in the 200 meters, posting a time of 21.84, which is the fifth fastest in the conference. During the indoor season, he earned All-Region honors in the 60, 200 and 4x400 meter relay. A native of Marion, Va., Stamper won the Conference Carolinas outdoor title with a school record toss of 14.42 meters. The sophomore also earned All-Region honors in shot put during the indoor season.
On the women's side, Shelbie Burchfield and Eliza Parker both earned All-Region accolades. Burchfield, a junior from Morristown, Tenn., earned honors in the high jump with a mark of 1.63 meters. That mark also is the best mark in Conference Carolinas this season. She finished second at the conference meet and after earning All-Region honors during the indoor season in the high jump. Parker earned recognition in the 5000 meter run during the outdoor season after earning the same distinction during the indoor season. The senor from Oswego, N.Y., took second at the conference meet and owns the league's fastest time of the season, 18:17.50 set at the year's first meet, the Charlotte 49er Classic.


text: Q: Can you get any updated information regarding the bridge replacement on Spring Creek Road in Lower Macungie? I was wondering if they have modified the anticipated completion date. Also, after walking over and looking at the site, I am curious about all the extra work they seem to be doing.

Scouting Report: Most familiar with the perimeter game in the Yellowjacket offense, so scouts will be on the lookout to see how he reads defenses and seams between the tackles, as well as how well he can catch the ball. Hard-nosed player who falls forward on contact and who might be better than expected in the passing game. Will need to be tested on his pass protection skills as well as his agility/quickness to know how effective he could be in pros.
Notes: While he might not have gotten the opportunity to be a feature back due to playing in a triple-option offense, Georgia Tech's Orwin Smith got a chance to prove how he projects to the pros with an eight carry 42 yard performance during much of the second half in the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl. ESPN's Kevin Weidl was impressed with his play and thought his game Saturday was quicker and more decisive than during his week of practice. Smith showed some promise from his play in the Collegiate Bowl but will need more time with teams for them to determine his projection in the pros.

just want to show off ( youhou ) my first board using vac pump.
it's a mutant, around 150x48 or so, so light wind ( there is no fucking wind here in quebec ).
used 3 times 1/8 inch ply ( baltic birch ) glued and screwed on the rocker table.
used 3 plys cause my inserts are .375 inch and i dont wanted to cut them.
epoxy rail all around.
rails / channels front and back ( real pain in the .....to do, but with a dremel tool ( well, the 14 dollars one from wallmart) ) works good.
one layer of 6 oz glass on the bottom, colored one ( red pigment and grphite powder) plus paste ( epoxy and coloidal silica ) in the rails / channels to seal them cause they delaminated a littlte the plys off wood !
put on vac under 22 inch, hoping to unbag tonight hope the rails are nicely wraped.
BIG mistake : using polyethelene plastic from hardware store instead of special one ( no way to get a slick wrap, i'm going to hav eto sand it after ! ) no way to get it nicely into the channels...
planning on just painting the to side not to ad to mutch stifness ! with my special salt grip.. and colored resin.

QB Mariota seeks to lead Ducks
Marcus Mariota simply isn't the type to bark orders, perhaps because of his mellow Hawaiian upbringing. But the sophomore quarterback for Oregon is vowing to be more vocal in his second season guiding the Ducks.
Last year at this time, Mariota was a redshirt freshman and an unknown commodity, having played only on the practice squad. He emerged during the spring game and eventually supplanted supposed starter Bryan Bennett in fall camp.
Throughout his rookie season, he mostly left the leadership to the seniors. He said it's his turn now.
"It's a little different. I think last year my mentality was to show what I could do," he said. "This season I need to show I can get better."
Oregon's preparation for the coming season started earlier this month with spring practice. The annual spring game will be held Saturday at Autzen Stadium.
Oregon finished last season 12-1 with a 35-17 victory over No. 7 Kansas State in the Fiesta Bowl. It was the Ducks' fourth straight trip to a BCS bowl game and second straight victory. Oregon ended up ranked No. 2 in the season's final AP Top 25.
Mariota set the team's single-season record with 38 touchdowns (32 passing, 5 rushing, 1 receiving), surpassing the previous mark of 36 held by Darron Thomas (2011) and Akili Smith (1998).
The first freshman named to the Pac-12's all-conference first team in 23 years, Mariota passed for 2,739 yards while completing a school-record 68.5 percent of his passes. He had 3,429 yards of total offense, second only to Smith's 3,947 in 1998.
Following the season, head coach Chip Kelly, the no-nonsense architect of the Ducks' speedy spread offense, left Oregon to become head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles. The school promoted offensive coordinator Mark Helfrich.
Mariota said not much has changed under the amiable Helfrich, except there's "less yelling." Kelly set the offensive foundation that the Ducks will continue to follow this season, with Mariota and running back De'Anthony Thomas setting the pace.
Mariota is the product of St. Louis High School in Honolulu. He threw for 32 touchdowns and only five interceptions in leading the Crusaders to an 11-1 record and the state title as a senior. He was widely considered one of the state's best quarterback prospects since Tommy Chang.
He was on the practice squad in 2011 when the Ducks finished the season with a Rose Bowl victory over Wisconsin and Darron Thomas was at quarterback. Thomas declared early for the NFL draft and many assumed the starter's job would be passed on to Bennett, his backup.
But Mariota piqued the interest of fans during Oregon's annual spring game when he threw for 202 yards and a touchdown, and rushed for two additional scores. Because Kelly closed practices, it was uncertain until late last fall who would be Oregon's new starter.
Mariota won. Bennett transferred.
While Mariota wasn't the loudest player on the team, that didn't mean he wasn't assertive. Last season when there was some trash talking with the Northwest rival Huskies, he jumped right into the fray.
"I'm never the kind of guy that, if you disrespect me or disrespect my teammates, I'm not going to just let that go," he said at the time. "There's situations when you can keep your head, there's situations where you need to say something."
This season, Mariota accepts that most everyone will be looking toward him for leadership.
"Especially with a lot of the veteran guys last season, like Kenjon Barner and Michael Clay, those guys left. Those were vocal guys," Mariota said. "I'm more of a low-key guy, so that's something I've got to work on, especially at my position. They always ask the quarterback to be a little more vocal."

Dr. Dave Pilloni has been an athlete his whole life and knows firsthand the stress of years of physical activity on the human body. As a high school football and lacrosse player, his body endured many a jarring tackle whose after-affects can linger for years ahead. This penchant for testing the limits of his body led Dr. Pilloni to the study of chiropractic. Dr. Pilloni attended the Palmer College of Chiropractic in Florida, and after completing his internship, returned to Rhode Island to join the Warren Chiropractic Family Center with Dr. Timothy Warren. One of the things Dr. Pilloni observed at Palmer College was the experience of fellow classmates who were second and third generation chiropractors. He remarks, "I realized that there were so many things, such as my chronic ear infections, that could have been mitigated had I had chiropractic adjustments from my youth". This realization increased his resolve to dedicate a career to the practice of chiropractic, and he made good on that resolve two years ago when he joined this Warwick practice.
Dr. Warren, owner of Warren Chiropractic Family Center, has been a practitioner for the past 25 years. The combination of Dr. Pilloni's current and advanced training and Dr. Warren's years of experience make this a formidable and highly-skilled team, committed to bringing their patients the latest in relief from the stresses and strains of everyday living.
Chiropractic intervention has long been known to provide relief from headaches, neck and back pain, sinus and allergy problems, fatigue, irritability, and other stress-related conditions. As a family practice, Drs. Warren and Pilloni see patients of all ages with a multitude of symptoms, including young children suffering from such ailments as ear infections to young adults with sports-related injuries to older adults with arthritis. Skilled chiropractic care unleashes the body's healing mechanisms to overcome the pain that comes from stress-related damage, irrespective of one's age.
The team of doctors here remains committed to a philosophy of consistency, computerization and comfort. As evidence of this commitment, this office employs the state-of-the-art ProAdjuster System. This system is a computerized analysis and treatment instrument that provides safe, gentle, and precise chiropractic care. Patients who are uneasy lying down or disrobing will find this advanced system to offer both relief and comfort. This office has three of the ten ProAdjuster Systems in the entire state. Come in for a free consultation and let Drs. Warren and Pilloni explain the benefits of their office's comprehensive approach to your care.
Warren Family Chiropractic care is open Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 10:00 to noon and 2:30 - 6:00; and Tuesday and Thursday from 2:30-6:00pm. It is located at 2797 Post Rd. in the Greenwood section of Warwick. Call them today at 738-6477 or visit their website at www.warrenchiropractic.com.

Beyond Google: Magazines, Databases & the Deep Web at Nanuet: The Deep Web
What is the Deep Web?
What is the Deep Web?
The term "deep web" (also known as the "invisible web" or "hidden web") refers to the vast repository of information that search engines often don't have direct access to, like magazine/journal article databases, other document repositories, and sites with instructional content. Unlike pages on the "surface" web (that is, the web that you can access from search engines), information within these sites is inaccessible to the software spiders and crawlers that create search engine indexes.
How big is the Deep Web?
The Deep Web is estimated to be literally thousands of times larger than the web content found with general search engine queries. The major search engines - Google, Yahoo, Bing - don't bring back all the "hidden" content in a typical search, simply because they can't see that content at all; or can't access it without specialized search parameters and/or search expertise.
Key to the Icons Used in this Guide
Open Access -- Access to the site is free to anyone, wherever they are. No library card needed.
In-Library Access only -- can only be accessed on computers on the library building's network. No library card needed.
Access requires you to enter your library card number (which must be issued by the library offering the resource)
Access to library cardholders is free, but registration is required (often used by instructional sites that track your learning progress)
Access to library cardholders is free, but registration is required to take advantage of some optional features
Your Library and the Deep Web
Your Library and the Deep Web
Your public library offers tools that can find content in the "Deep Web" -- content that you can not find using popular web search engines. Some of this "hidden" content is freely accessible--if you know where to look. But other content is not made available for free; and only allows access by authorized users.
Your public library, along with New York State, the Ramapo Catskill Library System (RCLS), and the RCLS Central Library (Newburgh), have paid to license access to much of this content so that you, as a library cardholder, can benefit from the information it provides. Within the library building, that licensed access often appears seamless, because the content providers recognize that access is coming from registered library computers.
Outside the library building (known as "remote access"), users may be prompted to enter their library card number in order to be authorized to access this content.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - Ohio health officials are encouraging Ohioans to get up to date on booster shot vaccinations against whooping cough amid outbreaks around the state.
The Ohio Department of Health says the highly contagious disease is one of the most commonly occurring vaccine-preventable ones in the United States. The disease also known as pertussis is usually spread it by coughing or sneezing.
Health officials say it affects all ages but is most severe for babies. More than half of infants less than 1 year of age with pertussis must be hospitalized. It can be deadly in rare cases.
Officials say 901 Ohio cases were reported as of Nov. 2, compared with 742 by that date last year.
Pertussis usually starts with cold-like symptoms before it progresses to a persistent cough with spasms.

Final regular season game of 2011. Steelers at Browns, 4:15pm EST.
Cleveland Browns Stadium
Cleveland, Ohio
The Steelers are already guaranteed a spot in the playoffs but still have much to play for in the final game. They could still, although a bit of a remote chance, win the AFC North and take over the #2 seed. The Patiots and Ravens would both have to lose and the Steelers would have to win for that scenario to unfold.
More realistically though, the Ravens could fall to the Bengals and allow the Steelers to leap frog them and take over 1st place in the AFC North. If that doesn't happen, Pittsburgh will be going on the road.
There is still one game left and the Browns will be out to play the spoiler and the Steelers chances of finishing out with a win.
Roethlisberger, Woodley, and Sanders are all questionable as of Wednesday. Tomlin said they are all have a chance to play but we'll see how it goes as the week goes on.
**Update** Roethlisberger, Pouncey, Gilbert, and Sanders will all play today. Woodley still is not ready to come back but look for him to return for the post season.

Take notice that on May 13, 2004, Governor James E. McGreevey signed the Contractors' Registration Act (the "Act"), P.L. 2004, c.16 (N.J.S.A. 56:8- 136 et seq.), into law amending the Consumer Fraud Act, among other things, to establish a new registration program for home improvement contractors who engage in the business of selling or making home improvements in the State of New Jersey. The Act prohibits municipalities from issuing construction permits for home improvements to any contractor not registered under the Act. The Division of Consumer Affairs published in the New Jersey Register (36 N.J.R. 4984(a)) regulations (the "Regulations") adopted to implement the provisions of the Consumer Fraud Act, as amended by P.L. 2004, c.16 (N.J.S.A. 56:8-136 et seq.) by providing procedures for the regulation of home improvement contractors and establishing standards to facilitate enforcement of the requirements of that Act, including the registration procedures for those persons who fall under the requirements of this law.
The effective date of the Act, which would have been November 9, 2004, was changed to December 31, 2005 by legislation (P.L. 2004, c.155) signed by Governor McGreevey on November 8, 2004. The regulations were effective on November 1, 2004, and were to become operative on November 9, 2004. As a result of the enactment of P.L. 2004, c.155, the operative date of the regulations has been changed to December 31, 2005.
The notice published in the Register on November 1, 2004 (36 N.J.R. 4991(a)) is rescinded and replaced by this notice. There will be no phased implementation when the Act becomes effective and the regulations become operative on December 31, 2005. Contractors are urged to submit applications for registration as provided in the regulations immediately.
The Division of Consumer Affairs will continue to register home improvement contractors prior to December 31, 2005 and contractors are encouraged to apply. Registrations will be effective until December 31, 2006. Upon receiving a registration number, a contractor may display it in advertisements, on documents and on its vehicles.
The Division estimates that there are at least 25,000 contractors who would be required to be registered. Applications will be processed in the order in which they are received. Depending upon the volume of applications received after September 1, 2005, an application may not be processed by the deadline. Only registered contractors may obtain permits and continue to work when the Act does become effective on December 31, 2005.

What a team! What a purpose! Just when we are saturated by the bad news of the day about our country coming apart, about the loss of high values among the youth, about sand-box level fighting among our politicians—in other words all the stuff that makes headlines among the competing news media—along comes a fresh reminder that we have the next generation of great kids working hard to assure brighter futures and high civic responsibilities.

This is a response to the Feb. 16 story "Sand in demand." The article neglected many legitimate concerns associated with sand mining.
… One reason for the sudden increase of mining permits with the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources … is that the federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration and the Environmental Protection Agency may soon issue more stringent regulations regarding the sand mining industry.
… Prolonged exposure to sand dust is proven to cause life threatening respiratory diseases, including silicosis, bronchitis, cancers and autoimmune diseases. Sand particulates can negatively affect workers and residences in locations close to sand excavation. They are industrial in nature, pose public health and safety risks, and bring permanent ecological impact.
Mining sites require highway-grade infrastructure to accommodate heavy trucks. Special-use permits frequently remain in perpetuity with the corresponding property, allowing continued industrial-type development for years to come.
Silica sand is used for hydraulic fracturing, electronic devices and abrasive products. …
The dewatering process of any sand mine can lower the water table and contaminate groundwater.
Mining sites often share boundaries with the economically disadvantaged – those who cannot adequately argue their loss of security and welfare.
Mining permits are long-term zoning, and land-management issues that should not be rushed into place without adequate public input, research and review.

I wonder, is Woody White so insecure in his campaign that all he can do is lash out at his opponent with personal attacks?
What is his platform? What is his experience?
David Rouzer has fought for small businesses and our tobacco farmers. He has fought for welfare reform that included drug testing.
He also fought against the annexation of Monkey Junction. He has been endorsed by the NRA, the National Federation of Independent Businesses, and N.C. Right to Life.
We do not need another lawyer in Washington to find loopholes in the laws, in order to suit their egos.
Charles Besecker, Wilmington
The big problems in Washington continue to be overspending and the economy (jobs).
What we get from our leader is immigration, gun control, Syria, the minimum wage, climate change, and now the disparity of income.
We need new focus in Washington.

Incisive, beautifully crafted stories about family relationships, focused especially on the dynamic between fathers and daughters.
Pollack (Paradise, New York, 1998, etc.) looks lovingly and longingly at the way families work, particularly when death is impending. It's hard to choose favorites here, for all are worthy. "The Bris" examines the life of James Sloan, who has been living a lie, and now, on the point of death, charges his son Marcus with the task of finding a mohel who will perform a bris so he can be buried next to his wife in an Orthodox cemetery. As James's health declines, Marcus's anxiety and desperation increase, for the rabbi refuses to countenance the bris for both religious and personal reasons. (A competitive player, the rabbi won't even consider the request until Marcus wins at least two games in a set of tennis.) Marcus is finally led to take matters into his own hands, as it were. "Uno" introduces us to Heloise and Mitch, who on holiday at the Sunshine Lodge (where the food is so pure "you needed a spiritual license to be allowed to eat") meet a family that includes Sarah and Meribeth, Siamese twins who help call into question Heloise's tidy world. The longest piece is "Beached in Boca," a nuanced story that weaves together three narrative lines with great delicacy. Wendy has come to visit her father in Boca Raton only to find out that he has AIDS. Dealing with the jolt of this revelation, she examines her own sexual history and her inability to commit to her current lover, a 60-year-old professor from Montana. At her father's condominium complex she meets (and is strongly attracted to) Adam Haber, whose father recently committed suicide because the body of a former lover was found in a barrel in the basement of his house.
Delicate but dazzling.

Another Cruisin' 92.1, WVLT Jigsaw Puzzle
Below is what the photo in the Jigsaw Puzzle should look like when completed!
It's Lou Costello, heard daily from 10 am to 1 pm on Cruisin' 92.1, WVLT
The puzzle has 49 pieces all together. That's 7 puzzle pieces on each of the four sides. Keep in mind that the picture is smaller than your work area. The photo in the puzzle is a larger size than you see above!
Here's the Cruisin' 92.1, WVLT suggestion on how to proceed. Look for the four corners. Place them in each of the four corners. Then look for straight edges. Place them along the correct wall of the puzzle. Remember, all puzzle pieces are right side up so you don't have to turn them around to figure out where they go. When you match two puzzle pieces together, the deviding line between the two pieces will disappear. That's a hint on how to proceed. When the puzzle is completed, you'll see fireworks.

Dog training fundamentals can be summarized by three things – your dog's attention span, understanding of your dog and consistency in its training.
For best training results, the first tip is to be consistent. Set a list of ground rules for your dog. Your dog needs to follow every one of these rules, and if he or she is doing a good job, show positive reinforcement, and negative reinforcement should he or she disobey. Dogs know if their owners are consistent or not and treat them accordingly. Dog training can be made easier if you are a person that the dog can follow and show respect to.
The bulk of good dog training depends on how you can sustain your dog's attention and make it maintain its focus. Dogs may respect consistent leaders, but what good is it if they don't understand simple instructions? Your dog can pay better attention and retain it through these quick and easy exercises. Shout out the word "Watch" as your dog looks at you after you call him or her over by name. By doing this, you are reinforcing your dog's attention as you aim for him or her to associate the word "Watch" to looking at you. A dog's attention span can be improved, but first, drill him or her on the "Watch" technique – with success. Dog treats are for dogs and not owners, but you may want to pretend to eat one, then give the "Watch" command to your dog afterward. After you stay at the same place for a few seconds, give your dog some much-needed praise. Repeat this exercise as needed, preferably until your dog can pay attention to you for a minute. Your dog's attention span can determine how good a student it will be.
Effective dog obedience training can truly be achieved if you know how your dog thinks. A dog's focus is usually limited to a short period of time. This attention span usually lasts no more than twenty minutes, and once the twenty minutes is up, dogs usually become listless and unfocused. A fun training session could lead to your dog developing a better attention span. Your dog needs to appreciate training and why you are doing it for him or her. You can never have enough treats as a prize for successfully obeyed commands – and you should also sound like you mean it when you give praise. Dogs train better when they actually look forward to training.
Let this serve as a beginner's guide – the shortest possible way to get you started on effectively training your dog for obedience. Once you've mastered everything there is to know about obedience training (including all of this article), you should have the rewarding feeling of being a good owner and a good obedience trainer to your dog.

Maikel Nabil Sanad is under investigation for blasphemy. His friend Alber Saber has already been charged and is in jail awaiting a trial. Sanad is bravely speaking out publicly against the barbarism of such laws in a column on the Foreign Policy website.
On October 7, 2012, the office of the Egyptian General Prosecutor decided to start an official investigation accusing me of "blasphemy" — or, as they call it, "insulting Islam." My crime was expressing my atheist beliefs on my Twitter account. The Egyptian authorities also arrested my friend Alber Saber on similar charges. He remains in jail to this day.
Egypt has signed many international treaties that ensure freedom of expression, but the Egyptian penal code still has approximately 20 laws that make certain opinions a crime.
The specified offenses include criticizing the president, the parliament, the military, or the judiciary. Criticizing a foreign president, such as Mahmoud Ahmadinejad or Bashar Al-Assad, is also a crime, punishable with a three-year term in prison.
And he points out that a conviction is just the beginning. Once in prison, the real punishment begins:
Sanad has already spent time in prison for the "crime" of insulting the Egyptian military. And here's how such laws operate:
When I learned of the charges against me and Saber, I remembered my friend Kareem Amer, a famous Egyptian blogger who was sentenced to four years in prison in 2007 for insulting both Islam and then-President Mubarak. Kareem suffered a great deal in prison. He was tortured several times, and spent a long time in solitary confinement under horrible conditions.
Ayman's case was followed in January 2012 by the case of Gamal Abdou Masoud, 17, a Christian from Asyut in Upper Egypt. Gamal was tagged on Facebook in a picture that criticized Islam. Angry mobs surrounded his house because of this picture, burned his house and the houses of other Christians in the village, and forced his family to leave. The police didn't arrest anyone from the mobs. Instead, Gamal was sentenced to three years in prison for "insulting Islam."
And the bottom line:
Religions are just collections of beliefs which can't be proved. I still can't imagine that in the twenty-first century there are people going to prison because they don't believe that someone walked on water, a virgin gave birth to a child, or a man flew to heaven on a donkey. Tolerating this new Inquisition moves our world back to the Middle Ages, and this could have devastating consequences for our lives.
This is barbarism, pure and simple. I'm going to be writing a column for Secular World magazine starting with the next issue about free speech issues around the world. We need to take a stand on this principle. As Salman Rushdie says, "Free speech is the whole thing, the whole ball game. Free speech is life itself."

PowerColor HD 4890 Review
Over the past year the video card wars have been about performance as well as who is going to sell their card for less money. The constant rehashing of video cards and the ever constant price cutting, has really made this a buyer's market for video cards. If you want something better, just wait a month or two and your prayers will be answered. After seeing almost all the possible configurations on the HD4850 and HD 4870, models ATI has updated the lineup with the HD 4890 to compete with the GTX 2XX series cards from NVIDIA.
The PowerColor HD 4890 features the RV790XT core and is built on a 55nm process and contains close to 1 billion transistors, 800 processor cores, 1 GB of GDDR5 memory running through a 256bit bus. Clock speeds come in at 850MHz on the GPU core and 975 on the GDDR5 memory. For all intents and purposes this looks much like a well binned HD 4870 1GB video card. The question, is just how well will it perform and will it be the card to pull ATI back on top of the single GPU performance pile? Let's find out if it is the card.
Closer Look:
The packaging of the PowerColor HD 4890 is smaller than many manufacturers packages. That is a plus when it comes to managing costs and competing in a price conscious environment. The front panel shows a warrior princess, the fact that the HD 4890 has 1GB of GDDR5 memory and Dual DVI and HDMI connectivity. The slogan at the bottom is "Mesmerizing 3D Graphics for True Gamers". The rear panel illustrates some of the technologies associated with the HD 4890 such as built-in HDMI sound, DX 10.1 support and CrossfireX.
Pulling the inner container out you can see that the card is tightly held in place by the packaging. Under the HD 4890 there is a divider that needs to be lifted to access the accessories.
The bundle of accessories that PowerColor includes contains the manual, DVI to D-Sub adapter, DVI to HDMI adapter HDTV to RCA and an HDTV to composite dongle. More than enough to get you connected to the display of your choosing. If you feel the need to join the ranks of people running a multi GPU graphics solution, there is a Crossfire Bridge connector included.
Let's see what the HD 4890 from PowerColor has to offer.
