Ometepe Island is a volcanic formed island on Lake Nicaragua. It's formed by two volcanoes; Concepcion, still active and Maderas, dormant. The people of Ometepe have an "evacuation plan" set up in case Concepcion chooses to erupt one day… this evacuation plan consists of moving over to the other side of the island and taking […]

text: So with the extension of the PCE, I've decided to go ahead and get something for myself. Perhaps the last thing for awhile since I am going on a self-imposed ban so I can save $$ for an Asian Ball Jointed Doll I've been wanting (these girls are exspensive -- why can't I ever have a CHEAP hobby?). I've narrowed it down to a few things: Carly in khaki/black (was originally going to do the large one but tried them both on today and decided I can do the smaller one). Carly in brown. Now keep in mind I'm a matchy/matchy sort of girl, so I have my khaki/ebony Legacy accessories that would work with the khaki/black Carly. I also have the khaki/ebony Legacy shoulder bag so I have a bag in this colorway already. If I did brown, I would have to get new accessories. Or I could be conservative, buy something else for my RAOK buddy (which I will probably do anyway) as well as the new Chelsea wristlet in mineral as well as the matching Mini Skinny. LOVE this color!! And do I really need another bag, seriously. I have so many. I rotate frequently, but you really only can carry one thing at a time. At least with the leather accessories I can switch from bag to bag (even to my LVs). And this is the doll I want: http://www.souldoll.com/shop/step1.php?number=1065

What is love.. Barbaric kind of love
What is love?
No words can define it,
It's something so great
Only God could design it,
Wonders of Wonders ....
Beyond man's conception,
Is the human love a divine love or is it
the weakness of of the flesh, some form of sexual adversity
the power of love defies all odd, when it turn deadly,
savage, barbarous kind of love,
despite all the pain, this young woman is ready to forgive her lover,
who almost killed her because of jealousy these scars will remain for ever.
so, how can she forgive him?
There is always two sides of a stories. however, this photo can speak for itself
For love means much more than small words can express, a picture tell a story
for what man called love is so very much less than the beauty and depth
graphic as this may seem, heartless, and uncalled for.
this is the song of so many battered women.
I love him so, "he didn't meant to do it.
with all his faults, he is a good father and a good man
"set him free! set him free,
and it goes on every single day around the world.
so, if you desire to be happy, get rid of the "Misery of Dread
so, once again is the human love a divine love?
Stop allowing barbaric love in your homes..
Silent the beast within those walls.
Can love find true perfection.
And when you're facing, will seem much less
when you go to God, and confide and confess
for the burden that seems too heavy to bear,
God lifts away on the wings of prayer.
True love is not meant to hate, stab, injure or even kill. When love turns sour better walk out a living being than a dead soul. Thanks
Very true, this is not love at all when a partner does this to the one they say they "love". This poems speaks the truth and is well written. Voted up.
Very powerful hub. Love can make you do some strange things.
OMG. I felt odd seeing that battered woman.
That is not love anymore. It's domestic abuse and the perpetrator should be punished.
Bad things happened when a relationship went sour. Women should be brave enough to reliate, especially to abusive husbands or partners.
This is a terrible sight to see and your poem is well crafted and balanced, I abhord [sorry for spelling ] such things as hearing stories of innocent women being battered and I have seen the other side of this too where some women make their mens lives hell by taunting them and trying to make them jealious. I stood up for a woman being beaten in a pub one night and wound up fighting a small football team and the injured female party joining in kicking me on the ground.
WOW!! Imagine that, thats very deep and so real. awesome...and some.
I Was on my way to check on hubpage that I post yesterday and this show up as my page was ccoming up,the picture stop me in tracks,but them I went on to read your hub,one is born to do great things,you are born to write,you must do what god has put you here to do and that is to write..

Why Governments Need to Ramp Up Succession Planning
by Patrick Ibarra
As a result of the rapidly aging workforce, government organizations are experiencing a brain drain that is placing their organizations at a critical juncture: the need for experienced and seasoned employees has never been greater, while those are the very workers who are most likely to be departing in the very near future. It's clear that governments need to get serious about succession planning.
Knowledge Management: Transfer It Before It's Too Late!
by Patrick Ibarra
As organizations prepare for the potential departure of valuable staff, a major concern is how to preserve the knowledge that these seasoned employees have amassed.
Next Generation Professionals: An Inside Look at What Matters to Them
by Patrick Ibarra, Cheryl Hilvert, David Swindell and Karen Thoreson
The Mejorando Group, ICMA, the Alliance for Innovation and Arizona State University joined together to conduct research of young government professionals to discover their preferences about today's workplace. This article shares the research and provides a series of specific recommendations to make the transition from the workforce you have to the workforce you need.
Governmental Succession Planning: An Idea Whose Time Has Come
by Patrick Ibarra
Today, governmental succession planning requires more than just an organization chart that shows who holds what job within the government organization. Best practice organizations use succession planning to develop and maintain strong leadership and to ensure that they address all the competencies required for today's and tomorrow's work environment.

Succession Planning: The Essentials
by Patrick Ibarra
You've attend the conferences where a presenter spoke about it. You've read the articles which focused on the impacts from it. You've scanned a number of Web sites to learn more about what your agency can do to address it. You've discussed it at staff meetings.The topic at the center of all this is the unprecedented number of retirements currently happening within public sector organizations. Retirement parties used to be an occasional office event; nowadays, they occur almost weekly, or so it seems. I have dubbed this phenomenon the "(baby) boomerang" effect: the impacts resulting from the exodus by baby boomers from government agencies. As these seasoned employees depart and take with them their judgment and problem solving capabilities, (two areas essential to continued effectiveness for an organization), the question arises about what you can do to replace them and their talent? In two words: succession planning..
Succession Planning: The Sequel
by Patrick Ibarra
Flash forward to this year, 2011. Significant budget limitations are the "new normal." Contrary to forecasts, public sector employees continue to retire. With public pension reform gaining traction, the retirement trend will continue since pensioners want to be "grandfathered in" under the current system and not be adversely impacted by any changes to the system. Additionally, young employees remain quite mobile since talented people always have options, regardless of the state of the economy. The departure of seasoned, knowledgeable employees places your organization at a critical juncture: the need for experienced and seasoned professional staff members has never been greater and the trend shows these organizational members as the most likely to be leaving the organization in the very near future. As a result of the "brain drain" underway and constrained budgets, the public sector is facing a number of specific challenges, including..
The Myths & Realities of Succession Planning
by Patrick Ibarra
"One only has to pick up a magazine or newspaper, glance at a TV, pull up a favorite web site or attend another in a seemingly endless series of retirement parties at work,to realize the workforce is agingand as a result, new challenges are presented. We have all heard about the "baby boomer" generation and the staggering numbers with which members of this group will be hitting the retirement rolls starting now and continuing for the next several years."
IPMA-HR News, August 2006
An Essential Building Block for the Public Workforce
by Patrick Ibarra
Career management is not simply about employees accumulating years of service or improving their technical proficiency. The whole concept of a career in government is transitioning from the traditional ladder of upward mobility to more of a lattice in which employees move in different dimensions.
Government's Crucial Employer Brand
by Patrick Ibarra
When it comes to building a top-flight workforce, getting branding right is just as important in the public sector as it is in business.
How Governments Can Hold on To Their Top Performers
by Patrick Ibarra
Conventional wisdom says that employees will leave if they are dissatisfied but that money will make them stay. That greatly oversimplifies the issue. People stay in a job or leave it for a range of reasons. Top performers want to be well compensated, of course, but they are seeking other kinds of satisfaction, primarily related to their learning, growth and opportunities to make a positive difference. Read Patricks' recent article he authored for Governing entitled "How Governments Can Hold on to Their Top Performers."
How to Get Better All The Time through Training and Development
by Patrick Ibarra
"Do you find yourself riding the ebb and flow of budgets dedicated to employee growth and development? Are the retirement parties you're attending almost weekly, foreshadowing an uncertain future with regard to employee performance? If you answered yes to any of these questions, read on and you'll discover a strategy and series of techniques to help your employees get better all the time through targeted training and development activities."

The Next Government Workforce
by Patrick Ibarra
Historically, government at all levels has relied on decent pay, generous benefits and stable employment to attract workers. As a result of the economic downturn, each of these attractions has been significantly diminished, leaving public leaders scrambling.
Talent Management: The Next Phase of Succession Planning
by Patrick Ibarra
The adoption and implementation of a talent management program provides the opportunity for organizational leaders to improve organizational performance despite not adding to their workforce.
Turning Your Organization into a Talent Magnet
by Patrick Ibarra
The public sector's traditional ways of attracting and retaining top-flight talent are not always effective. As a result, jurisdictions are increasingly pursuing a more focused approach to strengthening their employer brand, working to entice and retain talent.
Create Your Own Leadership Playbook: Pointers for a Successful Leader's Game-Changing Practices.
by Patrick Ibarra
Effective leaders strike a healthy balance between securing compliance and enlisting commitment from organizational members in their collective efforts to build a high-performing organization, and ultimately, a stronger community. Using football as a backdrop, here are 10 practices used by successful leaders.
Government: Factory, Enterprise or Both
by Patrick Ibarra
At its best, government serves as the protagonist for a better quality of life, and the antagonist is not shifting political winds or volatile budgets. It's what those trends signify: change, often disruptive yet incalculably valuable. These "headwinds" provide public leaders with the opportunity to be swift and nimble in their pursuit of better government, but that's where the "we've-always-done-it-that-way" mindset that emanates from guaranteed-outcome approach zaps hope for innovation and progress.
Improve Your Organization's Performance Right Now!
by Patrick Ibarra
The results your organization is currently realizing are not by chance. And although influenced by factors outside your control (not the least of which is the current economic crisis) they also have a great deal to do with factors within your control—most notably your business strategy and how you have designed your organization. Organizations looking to emerge from the current economic crisis stronger and better positioned for success will be forced to embrace new ways of thinking.
Leading Change isn't a Spectator Sport
by Patrick Ibarra
In today's ever-changing world the forces for change among public sector organizations—declining revenues, contentious political pressures, and increasing demands for services—have been fairly constant. When change becomes necessary is when those forces gather momentum by meeting up with newer issues such as shifting workforce demographics and expanding technologies. In public sector organizations large and small, change is ubiquitous and often overwhelming, especially to those who perceive themselves to be on the receiving end. For organizational leaders, the struggles in managing change and achieving good outcomes lie in both corralling the forces for change and shepherding their organization and its members though the process.
What Can Government Learn From Apple
by Patrick Ibarra
Flame Starters are catalysts for change and have an insatiable appetite for growth. You've worked your entire career to be at this point right now to conquer the challenges in front of you! Public service is a noble profession and pressure is a privilege. I have prepared a list of incredible resources to accelerate your journey, in the spirit of Mejorando, "get better all the time."
What is Successful Government
It's not easy to determine what constitutes quality public-sector performance. Finding the answers to some crucial questions is the most important step toward a disciplined approach to high-performance government.
Best Practices are the Enemy of Innovation
by Patrick Ibarra
The problem with best practices is that they often merely masquerade as innovation. In the wrong hands, they become a shield to deflect critics, as though one can expect to be granted management immunity by proclaiming the use of supposedly tried-and-proven solutions.
Digital Government: Creating the Social Media Game Plan
by Patrick Ibarra
Simply posting undifferentiated information to your agency's Facebook and Twitter accounts is becoming outdated. Governments at all levels need to move past this stage and use social media as a way to interact with the community. One way to start is by posting a question to residents and employees on your Facebook page asking what type of information would they like to see provided there. This acts as a 21st century focus group providing real-time input. This input needs to be balanced with additional research, however, because some users hide behind anonymity to make controversial comments or voice inflammatory opinions.
Elected Official as Chief Innovation Officer
by Patrick Ibarra
Playing it safe is no longer playing it smart. Elected officials are under intense pressure to innovate: to purposefully generate and implement fresh solutions, adopt continuous improvement and pursue planned change. Forward-thinking elected officials understand that innovation and progress are inextricably linked. Read the article to learn effective ways to Be Curious, Challenge Perspectives and Create Freedom in fostering a culture focus on innovation.
Planting the Seeds to Harvest Innovation
by Patrick Ibarra
More and more, government leaders are under extraordinary pressure to innovate — to purposefully create and execute solutions while implementing continuous improvement and managing planned change. But simply waiting for innovation to happen is perilous, especially in today's political and fiscal climate. Successful farmers are discipline, and they rely on a set of sequenced steps to achieve their desired results. Read to learn the four steps of the agricultural cyclee that apply to being a successful innovator.
Running Government Like a Startup
by Patrick Ibarra
Public leaders who want to create high-performing organizations can learn a lot from the way successful businesses are launched.
The Amazon-ification of Government, and Why We Need More Of It
by Patrick Ibarra
Design thinking is a "next practice," a methodology that infuses innovation activities with a human-centered design principle powered by a thorough understanding of what people want and need and what they like or dislike about the way a particular service is provided.
There is No Box: Uncertain Times Demand RAPID Innovation
by Patrick Ibarra
After rejecting the conventional wisdom which offered comfortable solution and accepting that ambiguity prevails, what should government leaders pursue to leverage the forces for change? The optimal solution is RAPID Innovation. RAPID is a bold, forward-thinking, powerful, practical and productive mechanism designed to generate, identify, select, implement, and evaluate contemporary innovation solutions.
This Government Brought to You by
by Patrick Ibarra
"Public leaders in search of new revenue increasingly are looking to the private sector, offering up naming rights for public facilities, selling advertising or seeking sponsors for public events. The Internet has complicated the search for customers exponentially, so businesses are craving outlets that maximize the number of eyeballs per dollar invested. That's where government comes in."
Career Management in the 21st Century
by Patrick Ibarra
The convergence of workforce trends impacting the landscape for public sector employment is unprecedented. What do these trends mean for leaders of cities and towns who want to build their 21st-century workforce? Old models must be discarded in favor of progressive and practical strategies and tools to attract, retain, and optimize talent — especially as it relates to establishing a robust career management program for employees. The concept of a career is transitioning from the traditional ladder of upward mobility, to more of a lattice where employees move in different directions. Today's employees might move up, sideways, or both — gaining essential skills and experiences to keep pace in our quickly changing workplace.
Future of Government: Me and My Career
by Patrick Ibarra
The convergence of the forces for change, present the public sector professional another in a series of opportunities to redefine him/herself. The question is what are the capabilities and competencies that comprise this redefinition? Here is a recommended blueprint for designing and building a recession-proof future.
How Fit Are You To Advance? Accelerate your capabilities
by Patrick Ibarra
Ambition is a mindset, and it requires sustenance to catalyze your career. The first step is to decide what a "good career" means to you and plan for it.
Mission Critical Mentoring: Key considerations for positive outcomes
by Patrick Ibarra
Mentoring programs have become extremely popular primarily because so many organizations are facing the retirement of a significant number of their workforce.

The major principle underlying the reinvented role for the finance professional is CIP: change, innovation, and progress. Following is a recommended blueprint for the evolution of the finance professional.
Getting More Value Out of the Government HR Department
by Patrick Ibarra HR is at a critical juncture: Should it try to hang on to the past and risk becoming marginalized, or should it embrace a new and different future that requires different competencies? Either way, there is a clear and unambiguous imperative confronting the HR professional to rethink the HR function's structure, services and programs and address how it can add value to today's organizations.
Get Up, Get Out, Get On It: How HR can Become a Strategic Business Partner
by Patrick Ibarra
"…the future of HR is at a critical juncture: try to hang on to the past and risk becoming marginalized, or embrace a new and different future that requires different competencies. There is a clear and unambiguous imperative confronting the future of the HR professional: rethink the HR function's structure, services, and programs to address how it can add value to today's organizations or suffer the consequences."

For starters, in Farmingdale, the annual Chamber of Commerce Holiday Parade will start at noon at the Northside School tomorrow. This year's procession will feature the Daler Kickline, the Hardscrabble Girl Scouts, and the Farmingdale Public School marching band.
After the parade down Main Street, Santa will visit with kids on the Village Green. St. Nick will be distributing candy and posing for photos.
The Marines Toys for Tots Foundation will be collecting new unwrapped toys for children this holiday season. Collection boxes will be located at Ellsworth W. Allen Town Park, as well as other facilities in the town of Oyster Bay.
Also tomorrow, from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm, will be the 25th Annual Christmas Craft Fair organized by the Daughters of Mary at the Hicksville Veterans of Foreign Wars Hall at 350 South Broadway in Hicksville. For those who do not have anyone to buy for this holiday season, this is a chance to share the holiday spirit.
Available items include homemade sweets by the sisters, such as fudge, jellies, and cinnamon rolls. Other booths will offer crafts, wreaths, ornaments, wood items, crocheted items, books, clothing, and recordings by the sisters.
Santa is in for a busy day and will be available again to talk to the children and pose for photos. There will also be games, a snack bar, and hourly raffles.
All proceeds will benefit the Saint Pius V School in Melville. Flyer printing and postcard printing are just two of the ways many nonprofits get the word out about local events to residents and donors.

Copyright around the world is in a race to keep up. Technology has the fast track, while legislators, lobbyists, and the public are going to the inside and looking to make their move.
In the digital age, this race is going to be not a sprint, but a marathon. And because digital is always global, developments in one region may potentially affect others.
As legal counsel and deputy head of the legal department at the German Publishers and Booksellers Association, Dr. Jessica Sanger watches closely the German courts and has a front-row seat on legislation across the European Union. At the London Book Fair in April, she told CCC's Chris Kenneally that any European calculation on possible antitrust business activities differs from the American.
"Very generally speaking, I would say that in Europe the focus has shifted from pure protection of competition as a concept far more towards the protection of competition in the consumer interest. European antitrust policy is looking very much at the effects that any restrictive practice or any abuse may have on consumers' interests," she explained.
Dr. Jessica Sänger is Legal Counsel and Deputy Head of the Legal Department at Börsenverein des Deutschen Buchhandels, the German Publishers and Booksellers Association. She studied Law at Exeter (U.K.) and Mainz (Germany) and has served as a visiting lecturer at Louisville (USA) and Bristol (U.K.) law schools, lecturing on Constitutional Law, Free Speech, Law of Broadcasting and the Press, and Copyright.

These Famous Logos Went On A Diet And Look Very Different
Recognizable brand logos were put on a diet.
Huh? Well, how else could the golden arches end up looking so slimming?
With no trail blazing agenda for motivation other than to modernize the aesthetics of logos, artist Tolga Gündoğdu tinkered with graphics such as McDonald's, VW, and Wilson, to make them "lose weight." Basically, he trimmed the font weight for a sleeker look.
Micky D's, you're up first. Get on that scale.
If the slimmer logo symbolized the fast food franchise adding healthy options to their menu, the alteration is justifiable. But there's no profound statement to be made here.
In fact, the artist himself, explained:
I designed this series to show the importance of line thickness. The project is still work in progress.
Are you loving it? Can you even see it?
Up next is Wilson, ready to serve.
CREDIT: boredpanda
That's not a "W." It looks like an outline for firm glutes. Play more tennis everyone!
CREDIT: boredpanda
Up next is VW.
CREDIT: boredpanda
Don't bother tailgating to get a closer look at identifying this vehicle's make.
The concept of minimalist logos is still in development. While the companies won't be adopting the new fonts any time soon, it will be interesting to see how much further Gündoğdu will progress with his experiment.

text: Once I at at San Angel Inn in Mexico City and found out what Mex-Mex is. It was a true eye-opener after spending my youth in Dallas eating Tex-Mex and thinking that I knew all about Mexican cuisine. Now, after living away from Texas for a few decades, I am returning for a visit and hope to find a restaurant that serves true gourmet Mexican food. I have read over several threads and have seen some Mex-Mex listed (Mias, Litos, Cafe San Miguel...). If you have had a really fine Mexican meal recently, could you share your experience? And, if you have a view on the three I have listed, could you provide any details? BTW, money is not an issue, nor do I think that high price necessarily correlates with good quality (tho' it often does!).


text: Blantyre - Malawi's police stepped up street patrols on Friday after a leading rights group called for the resignation of President Bingu wa Mutharika whose government has vowed to act against "anarchy"."We have intensified police visibility and patrols," police national spokesperson Davie Chingwalu told AFP, who said police were on alert for protests.The Public Affairs Committee, a group of religious leaders and activists, has threatened "civil disobedience" if Mutharika did not step down within 60 days or call for a referendum on his leadership within three months.But Information Minister Patricia Kaliati warned that the government will not "stay idle while people drag this country into chaos and anarchy"."We have an elected government in this country. Inciting people to rise against government is against principles of democracy," she reacted at a press conference late on Thursday in Lilongwe.The group issued the ultimatum after sidestepping a government ban by holding the two-day meeting at a Catholic church outside Blantyre where police searched delegates, including bishops and opposition leaders, as they entered."In the event that these demands are not met, we will call on Malawians from all walks of life to go for civil disobedience," said the PAC in a resolution at the end of the meeting.Mutharika's second term in office has seen growing discontent with his rule. Political tensions erupted into rioting in July, when police shot 19 people dead.Several major donors cut their aid last year over concerns about the infringement of democratic freedoms, economic management and governance.

How long does it take for alcohol to get out of your urine?

Hey sexyvioletkat,
It really depends on how much you drank. Up to 24 oz will take 24 hours to clear the system of a normal healthy adult. There are many factors that can effect the testing of alcohol though such as not only the quantity but also if any other drugs were consumed along with the alcohol. It also depends on the type of test performed. So my answer is a generalization.
Hope this helps,

CodePlexProject Hosting for Open Source Software
This is an awesome plotting control. Unfortunately, the lack of documentation makes it a challenge to use.
I am plotting lines with data points in the range of 1.5E-8 to 1.9E-14. The "larger" values (around 1.5E-8) plot beautifully. However, the plots with values around 1.9E-14 are a straight line. I can zoom the axis down to 5E-12, but no further.
Is there a limit on the scale the plots can zoom down to? Is there a way to overcome this restriction?
Since there has been no response, I've started looking at the code. With a lot of digging, I stumbled upon a RestrictionCollection object on the Viewport (Viewport2D.cs) that sets what appears to be a MinimalSizeRestriction of 1E-11. (Close to what I'm seeing.
:) ) Since I am very new to this and really want to be a user not a developer, does anyone know why the restriction? It doesn't really seem necessary. Also, when the restriction is hit, the scaling/zooming gets all screwed up, especially with the FitToView
method. Without changing the code and creating a new assembly, can I overwrite or modify this minimal restricition, assuming this is the culprit? Is there a property on the Viewport that I have not been able to find or named in a way that I don't understand
that is what it does? Or, do I have access to the RestrictionCollection of the Viewport and can delete that minimal restrictrion? I feel I am on the right track, but if someone with more experience and can shead some light for me. I'd appreciate it. Just hoping
to get some quick insights and to try to keep this thread visible until it is solved.
Here to report success! As reported previously, my huntch that the RestrictionCollection contained a item that limited the zoom was correct. And that RestrictionCollection is exposed in the Viewport. When removed, I can zoom very deep down. So, my problem
is solved! The following is the code to remove it:
foreach (var item in plotter.Viewport.Restrictions)
if (item.GetType().Name == "MinimalSizeRestriction")
Finally, the reason for the restriction (the only one applied by default) is that the scale on the axis is not defined at that fine a granularity (beyond the 1E-11). So, the scale just disappears.

It says a lot about the reputation of your transit system when a guy fleeing the scene of a crime uses it during his escape.
That's exactly what one man accused of stealing $500 from a Wells Fargo in Northeast Philadelphia apparently did earlier today, according to police.
About 4:45 p.m., the man walked into the bank, on Roosevelt Boulevard near Welsh Road, and used a demand note to grab the cash, said police spokeswoman Officer Christine O'Brien.
He then fled the scene, and boarded a nearby Route 1 bus heading south, according to SEPTA spokesman Andrew Busch.
Police flagged down that bus minutes later at Roosevelt Boulevard near Cottman Avenue after someone onboard tipped them off that a man matching the suspect's description had hitched a ride, Busch said.
The man was taken into custody without incident, and officers were able to recover the stolen money, police said.
None of the other passengers on the bus were injured during the arrest.

Leeds United manager Brian McDermott expects Davide Somma to continue his career with another club next season, despite Leeds offering to see through the striker's latest bout of rehabilitation.
McDermott admitted that the renewal of Somma's contract at Elland Road was "realistically not going to happen" with the injury-prone South African recovering from a third knee operation.
Somma underwent surgery on damaged cartilage two weeks before the end of the Championship season, consigning him to a further spell of treatment at a delicate stage of his career with Leeds.
The 28-year-old is rapidly approaching the end of his three-year deal at Elland Road and was told in May that Leeds would not be immediately extending his contract.
The club did invite him to continue training at Thorp Arch, however, and McDermott is likely to give him the chance to feature in Leeds' pre-season programme in an attempt to resolve the fitness problems which have sidelined Somma for most of the past two years.
McDermott said: "He's a great guy who's been really unlucky. I spoke to Harvey (Sharman, United's head physiotherapist) and we agreed that we wanted to do the right thing by him.
"We'll look after him, try to get him fit and if something comes up for him elsewhere, we'll try to make sure that nothing stops him taking up the opportunity."
Leeds named Somma on a 10-man released list announced 24 hours before their last game of the season at Watford but United added that "the South African international will have the opportunity to join in pre-season training with a view to assessing his fitness".
The remark indicated that he might yet have the chance to win another deal but McDermott said: "I think realistically that's not going to happen. You never say never in football but that's not necessarily how we were thinking.
"At the moment he just needs to concentrate on getting fit and over all the injuries. You feel for him."
Somma made fleeting appearances last season having missed the whole of the 2011-12 term through knee ligament damage but his belief that the worst of his problems were behind him was wrecked by his latest bout of surgery.
Leeds will supplement their choice of forwards with new signings before August, and Noel Hunt and Kevin Doyle have both attracted McDermott's attention. Click here to register and have your say on the Leeds United stories and issues that matter to you

FORT LAUDERDALE, FLA. (WSVN) - A South Florida recovery center is getting help from a local rapper to spread awareness about the foundation's mission.
Rapper Flo Rida took the stage at Recovery Unplugged Treatment Center in hopes of inspiring others.
The center uses music therapy to help patients heal from drugs and alcohol addictions.
Richie Supa, who is a songwriter, who worked with Aerosmith among others, is also the director of Recovery Unplugged. "I was an addict in the '70s and '80s," Supa said. "I know them, I know how they feel, I know their pain. We're saving lives, man, and it's better than any Prism Award, Grammy that I was ever involved with."
He uses lyrics that resonate with the patients and the healing power of song. "I go in, we play songs. We talk about the lyrics," Supa said. "Some of the clients cry, and we touch their souls."
Flo Rida, born Tramar Dillard, spoke with the crowd about his humble beginnings. "A struggling artist, it was so many things that I went through," he said.
"I'm a guy who's here today because of the fact that I feel obligated that I was a struggling artist, but I never gave up," said Flo Rida, "No matter how much money I had in my pocket, how much food on the table, I never gave up. I hope that's what they get from me coming out here, speaking to them."
Patients are being mentored through words and the language of music.
Recovery Unplugged treats about 70 patients.

I hope not because I have my go-to pumpkin recipe to share with you today!
Fall at our house means lots of apple crisp, pumpkin cookies, and pumpkin muffins. Since I have given up cookies (story to come one of these days), I only made them once this year.
Selfish, anyone?
Apple crisp and these muffins have shown up several times. And I'm making them again today to have on hand for a quick breakfast treat this weekend when we will have a houseful of company.
I love recipes with a story and that is one of the reasons I love this one…that and they are hands down the best pumpkin muffins I have found. When I was in high school, one of my friends baked this in tin cans and gave it as Christmas gifts. I loved the whole idea of it-and thought she was so Martha Stewart-y, even though no one had ever heard of Martha Stewart yet. Lynne gave me the recipe and I have made it over and over since then. The recipe card is faded and smudgy with a faint coating of flour. I have totally lost touch with Lynn, but I still think of her whenever I make this recipe.
I think you will love it, too. So, in honor of my high school chemistry buddy, Lynne, may I present:

Senate Republicans voted to silence Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) Tuesday night after she read a letter Coretta Scott King wrote in 1986 disavowing U.S. attorney general nominee Jeff Sessions, who, at the time, was being considered for a federal judge position.
Warren read the letter on the Senate floor during debates over President Donald Trump's nomination of Sessions for attorney general, reading aloud, "Mr. Sessions has used the awesome power of his office to chill the free exercise of the vote by black citizens in the district he now seeks to serve as a federal judge."
According to CNN, Sen. Mitch McConnell charged Warren with violating the Senate's little-known Rule 19, which says senators cannot impugn each other.
"She was warned," McConnell said Tuesday night. "She was given an explanation. Nevertheless, she persisted."
The second McConnell's words left his mouth, they were no longer his own — Twitter users immediately seized the statement McConnell had wielded to silence Warren and turned it into a feminist mantra, using it to tell the stories of women whose persistence has changed the course of history.

In the age of President Donald Trump, feminists have become adept at turning GOP politicians' most misogynist, condescending and dismissive comments about women into messages of empowerment.
In the final presidential debate, Trump couldn't help but interrupt opponent Hillary Clinton to call her a "nasty woman." It backfired spectacularly: Instead of tearing down Clinton, the cruel dig only incited her supporters to plaster the message on t-shirts, pins and the protest signs they would later march down the National Mall.
If Republicans aren't more careful with their words, they might just start an entire movement.

Mystic hot springs is a historic site that was purchased by the current land owner back in 1996. He turned the land into the hot spring resort that it is today. The resort is unique in a laid-back and relaxing way. The campground has basic amenities including showers, bathrooms and full hook-ups if desired. If you're looking for friendly people, basic camping and the opportunity to soak in hot mineral water this is the place for you. If you're looking for high-class camping and a fancy up-scale resort you might be disappointed.
The resort offers two large swimming pools and eight bathtubs. The resort owner said that the temps of the water range from 98 to 110 degrees Fahrenheit. I felt like some of the pools were a bit cooler than the 98 degrees Fahrenheit. My two-year-old enjoyed many of the pools and felt comfortable with the temperatures.
We camped here at the resort in late August and at times it felt as if we had the whole place to ourselves. There were a few other campers but they would come and go in the pools at various times throughout the day. I never felt as if it was over-crowded.
Overall, I would rate this place as 5 out of 5 stars. Mainly for the friendly people we met, the relaxing atmosphere and the fact that we often had the pools all to ourselves. I'm sure they have a busy season but this time of year was perfect. It was the perfect place to find some quiet tranquility in the desert. I highly recommend waking up in the early hours of the morning and soaking in the tubs as the sun rises. There's a beautiful view of the mountains as you sit in the tubs and look out over the valley.

17. There are some who have put forth an account, stating, that when in the territory of Beneventum, near the river Calor, having gone out from his camp with his lictors and three servants, for the [2??] purpose of bathing, he was slain while naked and unarmed, and endeavouring to defend himself with the stones which the river brought down, by a party of the enemy which happened to be concealed among the osiers which grew upon the banks. [3] Others state, that having gone out five hundred paces from the camp, at the instance of the aruspices, in order to expiate the prodigies before mentioned on unpolluted ground, he was cut off by two troops of Numidians who happened to be lying in ambush there. So different are the accounts respecting the place and manner of the death of so illustrious and distinguished a man. [4] Various also are the accounts of the funeral of Gracchus. Some say that he was buried by his own friends in the Roman camp; others relate, and this is the more generally received account, that a funeral pile was erected by Hannibal, in the entrance of the Carthaginian camp; [5] that the troops under arms performed evolutions, with the dances of the Spaniards, and motions of the arms and body, which were customary with the several nations; while Hannibal himself celebrated his obsequies with every mark of respect, both in word and deed. [6] Such is the account of those who assert that the affair occurred in Lucania. [7] If you are disposed to credit the statement of those who re- [p. 983]late that he was slain at the river Calor, the enemy got possession only of the head of Gracchus; which being brought to Hannibal, he immediately despatched Carthalo to convey it into the Roman camp to Cneius Cornelius, the quaestor, who buried the general in the camp, the Beneventans joining the army in the celebration.

To those who say he's not a jungler, I'll be explaining a great deal about how to play a viable jungler build, but also discussing some 3v3 and how to implement yourself well in team fights. This is primarily a jungling build and I will be addressing everything as though it were meant for a jungler first. But don't stop reading if you just want general information. Its there.
Pros / Cons
The Pros:
- This build focuses on improving the swiftness of your auto attacks which is both a pro and a con. As a result it requires you to be in the fray auto attacking. If you're not comfortable knowing when to run this will only be a Con. Don't uninstall the game, just play Caitlyn :)
- You're going to have no trouble fighting enemies in the jungle.
- If you're focusing on offense you'll be doing a lot of damage (pro), but you can at times be squishier than necessary (con). Don't be tempted into being a dedicated tank as Skarner. There are more obvious choices.
The Cons:
- The staying power you'll receive from the runes will not lend itself well to early game ganking. You're not a Warwick or a Nunu, so don't pretend to be. You're going to have difficulty ganking anyone if you're below level 6, and as a result you have to be very choosy about when you reveal yourself and attempt to gank.
- Skarner in general requires strategic placement. His Impale is an awesome ability and should always be used as a drag, and not simply a suppression, but REQUIRES you to be on top of where you're standing. You can't sit on the sidelines with Skarner.
Instead we want to be in their face, and for that we're going to need Greater Seals of Resilience and Greater Glyphs of Warding Now, not only are you a pain in the *** to kill, but as a result of ignoring you in favor of squishier targets, your opponents are actually hurting themselves in the long term if they need to run away. Nothing escapes Skarner.
I choose Greater Marks of Desolation Greater Mark of Desolation because Armor Pen would be a pain in the *** to receive from most other sources. A few of the Quintessences you may consider are Attack Speed, Attack Damage, or Swiftness. However - while all of these may look good on paper - in reality, if you're closely following my guide they are NOT worth taking. You'll receive more than enough of these from other sources. Instead I would strongly advise you to focus on Armor Pen to really maximize its capability.
Lastly, if you're thinking to yourself, "Skarner's strength comes from CD reductions, maybe I should maximize those..." Don't waste your time. Your passive lends itself well to this, and you will just be wasting your runes.
Don't expect to be the mvp for your team every game as Skarner. Likely you won't be. Your assists and kills will likely be close to even, but if you're playing him correctly your deaths should be close to 0. Stay at the front line of battle, but know when to retreat. If you see an opportunity to take a death for the greater good of killing the enemy team, do so. Don't be afraid of dying with Skarner if you've slowed their entire team on their retreat. This can easily lead to a victory.
Easy reference
- For a Jungler:
Berserker's Greaves
Madred's Razors (*I know its one too many)
Wit's End
Sheen/Trinity Force
The Black Cleaver
Guinsoo's Rageblade
Hextech Gunblade
- Non-Jungler
Berserker's Greaves
Wit's End
Sheen/Trinity Force
Force of Nature
Hextech Gunblade
Madred's Razor is an important second item because its going to boost your damage capability against minions by quite a bit. However, after you get Wit's End, feel free to sell it back. Further boost your attack speed with Berserker Greaves and take Sheen. There's a reason this is on your recommended list. The next item is going to depend a lot on if you're playing a 3v3 or a 5v5. If you're playing Skarner as a jungler (which I highly recommend for a 5v5) then you should constantly have the blue buff, and you won't be hurting for mana. In this case you can choose to either take The Black Cleaver or Tiamat as your next item. Either one is awesome for Skarner. However, in a 3v3 you're going to want to get Manamune. This is important so remember it.
If you're fighting a heavy magic oriented team, and you find Wit's End just isn't giving you the staying power you need, go for Force of Nature next. Remember: We want to frustrate the enemy team into not attacking us. If the other team doesn't have much magic, its better to go for Trinity Force at this point. Either Guinsoo's Rageblade or Hextech Gunblade make for a nice last item. I would lean more towards Guinsoo's Rageblade personally if you don't have much gold.
Skill Sequence
Summoner Spells
Flash is one of the more effective Summoner Spells for Skarner because you're better able to chase or escape, you can flash to a surprise Impale and pull your enemies into your turret or allies, or flash your way out of a dragon kill if the enemy team tries to gank you while you're jungling.
Smite is imperative for any jungling build. Always take this and the mastery provided for it and don't be afraid to use it any time its not on CD. That will maximize your gold intake.
If you decide not to jungle, (I personally do not like to jungle in a 3v3 situation), go for Exhaust as your second Summoner Spell, and take the 1 talent point from Smite and place it in Exhaust. Simple.
Finally, the only other Summoner Spell I really recommend is Clarity. I know many people consider it worthless, but its one of my favorites for staying in the jungle when I'm jungling. After about level five its not really worth it for you anymore because you have the blue buff, however its still an important ability for team fights. I recommend using it as a jungler.
Creeping / Jungling
Finally, the moment we've all been waiting for. (Or at least I was waiting for.) People say Skarner isn't a jungler, and many may question what you're doing in the jungle. They'll likely curse you when you lose an early tower, and if you haven't ganked someone by 8:00 minutes, you've lost all their respect. Take a breath, because you've been doing the right thing all along and now they're going to notice.
Here's a few helpful hints to be an effective jungler.
1) Take Clarity and Smite.
2) Fight the golems first and begin by Fracturing both, and Smiting one of your choice. Focus him down, use a health potion, and finish the other.
3) Move on to the wolves. They are easy and require next to no effort. Focus the biggest wolf down first. Then move on to the "wraiths". By now Smite is off CD and you can easily Smite one-shot-kill the biggest wraith. Finish the rest off and now look at your mini-map for an opportunity to gank.
4) For the teammate who is soloing, if he's a fail he will likely be losing and you may be tempted to assist him. This is not always the best idea. Any offensive action you take towards an enemy lane will likely cause the enemy team to re-adjust their strategy. For instance, if you have two Champions at the bottom, they may have already got the opposing champions close to death. This is the perfect opportunity to finish them off and thus the enemy team has to rethink their strategy.
Repeat these conditions until level 5, and now you're ready to kill the giant golem for the blue buff. With that you're never going to need to leave the jungle unless you want to gank or pick up an item. In a 5v5 you should always have this buff. Period.
Team Work
Your main focus as Skarner should be to harass the enemy team. They'll be forced to attack you, and as long as your team is paying attention, you'll do fine. Better yet, if they don't attack you, they'll be in for a surprise when they try to escape.
Thank you for reading my guide. I hope its helpful for you. Please let me know if you have any suggestions on how I could improve this build, or my guide.

Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Spain, United Kingdom, US
2014 Employment:
5 German Reservists: JWC, JFTC (x2), NATO School, and COE (Medical)
2015 Goals:

- Add more NATO/Partner nations to the NMRN
- Expand knowledge/understanding of Network throughout NATO
- Emphasis on MARCOM support (TRIDENT JEWEL)
Multi-National Reserve Network SOP
1. Operational Concept:
It is intended that this NMRN would be comprised of reservists from NATO and Partnership nations, on a voluntary basis, to provide reservists to support specific NATO requirements.
Requirements will originate at NATO ACT, NATO subordinate Commands (e.g. JWC, JALLC, JFTC), or NATO Centres of Excellence (COEs). These requirements will be collected and identified as Reserve applicable via the NATO ACT Operational Support Officer or the NATO Multinational unit (NMRU). Once identified, these requirements will be distributed to all participating nations in the NMRN via the NPOCs.
Whenever possible NPOCs are encouraged to identify and provide Reserve manning resources to the NMRN for future requirement matching and/or coordination.
General Guidelines:
- To be a participating nation within the NMRN, each nation must agree to support this operational construct and provide a national point of contact (NPOC).
- It is emphasized that each participating nation is providing Reserve support on a voluntary basis and there is no associated NATO/ACT budget in direct support of the NMRN.
- The NMRU, a NATO ACT Reserve Unit (U.S.), will be the primary coordinating component responsible for matching NATO requirements to NMRN Reserve capabilities.
2. Participating Nations' Responsibilities:
- Identify a NPOC who has the authority to match national reserve support to the identified NMRN requirements;
- Provide Military Member Information form (see Appendix B) for each participating Reservist to compile a database of skills and contact information;
- Adhere to the nation's reserve policies with respect to reserve affairs;
- Ensure follow-through coordination is completed with the NATO command requesting support; and
- Provide feedback information to the NMRU on requirement status, lessons-learned to improve the NMRN process, and the experiences of the participating Reservists supporting NMRN requirements.
3. NMRU Responsibilities:
The NMRU is a group of U.S. reservists assigned to ACT Headquarters who are familiar with the NATO organization and the support requirements for which reserve support is desired.
- Identify those NATO requirements which can be met with reserve resources;
- Disseminate identified reserve requirements to each NPOC;
- Transparently coordinate all NPOC responses to fill identified requirements;
- Ensure offered Reserve resources identified by NPOCs are distributed to the applicable NATO Commands; and
- Periodically report on NMRN activities to stakeholders (e.g. NRFC, NATO ACT)
4. Process Overview:
The decision of each NATO nation to participate, or to not participate, in the NMRN is strictly voluntary. Furthermore, the amount and type of reserve participation within the NMRN is solely at the discretion of each participating nation. To be clear, each nation will make its own decisions if it participates, and on how/when it participates. Additionally, there is no NATO or ACT funding to support any nation's NMRN activities – each nation must fund all of its NMRN activities.
The only pre-requisite for a nation to join the NMRN is to provide ACT with a NPOC. Within ACT, the NMRU serves as the ACT point of contact to coordinate and match NMRN activities.
The NMRU provides all NPOCs with a summary report of suitable NATO requirements as required. This report is called the "NMRN Reserve Requirement Update" (NRRU). The intention is to provide as much information as possible for each Reserve Requirement so NPOCs are able to determine if their nation's reservists may be able to provide the requested support. For example, the update will contain:
- NATO organization requesting support;
- Rank of reservist requested;
- Dates of support;
- Location of event;
- Job description; and
- Other relevant information.
Additionally, the NMRU will identify NATO requirements suitable for Reserve support as far in advance as possible. It should be understood that some of these NATO requirements may be provided without complete information and/or on short notice.
The NPOC (see Appendix C) will review the NRRU and determine if any of their nation's reservists are candidates for providing the requested support. If the NPOC determines that their nation desires to provide reservists for a NATO requirement listed on the NRRU, then the NPOC will contact the NMRU and make an official offer of support. The NMRU will review the official offers of support received from the NPOCs and determine which reserve resource offered best meets the specific NATO requirement.
Resource selection will be a transparent process with the result(s) provided to all NPOCs. As stated previously, the NPOCs can submit Reserve availability to the NMRN for coordination. However, this does not guarantee that this resource will have a matched requirement.
The selected NPOC is responsible to fulfill the NATO requirement and manage their reserve resources with the originating NATO organization. The NPOC will also provide feedback information to the NMRU, including the status of the NMRN Reserve Requirement, lessons-learned to improve the NMRN process, the experiences of the participating Reservists supporting, and any other relevant information.

10WaystoAvoidBeingtheVictimofIdentityTheftPosted on October 26, 2006, in Uncategorized, with 0 Comments
Identity theft is one of the fastest growing areas of crime in the online/information world. The FTC's January 2006 report said that 37% of their 685,000 consumer fraud complaints received in 2005 involved identity theft. Many think the number for identity theft is even bigger, much bigger. With that said, here is a list of 10 things you can do to help protect yourself.
- Shop online only on secure websites.
- Protect all of your personal information.
- Protect your computer. A lot of sensitive data is stored on your PC, make sure it is locked down.
- When web surfing, use another identity. Be stealth.
- Watch out for phishing scams. Carefully review your email for hints of fraud.
- Pay by cash, but if you can't, pay by credit card. There is more protection for you if you use your credit card online.
- Get off of mailing lists, especially those for preapproved credit cards. And if you don't take them up on their offer, shred the information.
- Regularly check your credit reports on all three of the big credit agencies. Make it part of your end of year or beginning of year financial review.
- If you think someone is attempting to steal your identity, report it right away. If you are wrong, at least you took some action to protect yourself.
- Protect PINs, passwords, anything that gets you access to personal or financial information.

Ashwagandha In The Fight Against Alzheimer's?
With all the doom and gloom doing the rounds lately, I thought it might be a good idea to begin this week on a positive note: Researchers recently concluded a breakthrough study which found that a simple desert berry could potentially clear away the plaques that cause Alzheimer's.
What's more is that this berry is something you can only find in some distant country that no one has ever heard of… In fact, here at the Daily Health we've written about its healing properties a few times.
I'm talking about ashwagandha or Indian ginseng, which is well-known for its immune-boosting properties, thyroid function support and its ability to fight fatigue. In addition, early studies have also shown it has potential cancer-protective properties and could offer relief to those suffering with joint pain.
Berry, berry good memory
In this most recent study, researchers from the National Brain Research Center in Haryana, India, spent 30 days feeding lab mice who showed early signs of Alzheimer's disease a daily doses of ashwagandha extract. The results were spectacular!
The brain-boosting berry swept away the ß-amyloid peptides that form deadly plaques, which eat away at cherished memories. It even reversed some of the common behavioural problems linked to Alzheimer's.
This study comes right on the heels of another fascinating piece of research showing that ashwagandha may reduce oxidative damage to your brain.
Ashwagandha means "strong as a horse" and it was first discovered by one of the fathers of Ayurvedic medicine, Punarvasu Atreya, who devoted his life to uncovering natural breakthroughs that have brought relief to many over the centuries.
Punarvasu Atreya was heralded by those in the know as a legend of his craft. He first wrote about healing powers of ashwagandha more than 3,000 years ago, and it's been used ever since to treat everything from tumours to impotence. Now, many centuries later, this miraculous little berry is still making waves in alternative medicine.
If you ask me, it looks like the researchers are onto something and a potential solution to Alzheimer's may be blossoming right now in the Indian desert.
