Having problems with your Fuji FinePix S7000 Digital Camera ?
I put a SanDisk ExtremeIII 4GB card in my FinePix S7000. The screen says "card not initialized". I went to format in menu, and said OK. Still reads the same. What else can I do?
Answers :
This camera will not recognize any card over 2 gig. Go to Fuji USA website and download the firmware upgrade for this camera. You will also need the program that came with the camera and the cable. You are going to "flash" the firmware in the camera just as you would a computer BIOS. then it will take up to 4 gig cards. Intructions are on the Fuji website. Please rate this if it was helpful.

I just got back from my first cruise and took so many pictures. I don't have a USB so I went to go place the memory card into my computer but it won't read the card. So when I put the memory card back into the camera it said Memory Card Format "Power Off" or "Format" but I know that if I format it all my pictures will be erased. Is there any other way of uploading my pictures without erasing them?

Commonwealth of Kentucky
Court of Appeals
** ** ** ** **
VANMETER, JUDGE: Cooper Tire and Rubber Company petitions for the review of a Workers' Compensation Board opinion affirming in part, and reversing and remanding in part, an Administrative Law Judge's (ALJ's) opinion awarding Jessica Deaton occupational disability benefits based upon a 17% impairment rating. Cooper Tire argues on appeal that the ALJ erred by finding that Deaton provided timely notice of her injury and timely filed her claim. Cooper Tire also argues that the evidence was insufficient to sustain the ALJ's award. For the following reasons, we affirm.
I. Facts
While working as a Cooper Tire assembler on August 1, 2003, Deaton lifted some boxes and experienced low back pain ("back injury"). She went to the hospital after work, where she was told that the back pain was related to her pregnancy. Deaton's pain continued, and a doctor eventually told her in August 2004 that her pain was work related. Within a week, she notified her employer of the work-related injury.
In February 2006 Deaton filed an application for resolution of injury claim. That claim also addressed a second injury, which she alleged she sustained on April 22, 2005, while pulling rubber hoses out of a basket at work. Deaton alleged that this injury caused pain in her neck and shoulder ("neck injury").
Evidence was submitted from the parties on both of these claims, including medical evidence from several doctors, which we now summarize, quoting on occasion from the ALJ's opinion and award.
Dr. Richard A. Lingreen initially treated Deaton on August 31, 2004, and ultimately diagnosed "lumbago, lumbar herniated nucleus pulposus, lumbar degenerative disc disease, cervicalgia, cervical radiculopathy and tension headache." An MRI "revealed a L5-S1 tear with herniated nucleus pulposus." After reviewing a second MRI, Dr. Lingreen "opined there was very mild degenerative disc disease at C2-C3, C3-C4, and C4-C5 and C5-C6." Dr. Lingreen instructed Deaton in home exercises and discussed the possible use of injective therapy. He prescribed Ultracet and Zanaflex.
After performing an independent medical evaluation (IME) on Deaton, Dr. Robert C. Hoskins diagnosed "L5-6 disc herniation, L3-4, L4-5, and L5-6 disc bulging, lumbar instability at L5-S1, lumbosacral sprain/strain, bilateral lumbosacral radiculitis, cervical spondylosis, degenerative disc disease at C2-3 through C5-6, cervical sprain/strain, cephalgia, and left shoulder girdle strain/myofascial pain." Dr. Hoskins opined that Deaton's complaints "'were caused by the cumulative trauma and repetitive strain associated with the physical job demands she encountered through her employment at Cooper Tire.'" Dr. Hoskins assigned a 17% permanent whole body impairment and placed upon her several work restrictions.
Dr. John M. Kelly performed an IME on Deaton and opined that her exam revealed no objective findings. Rather, her exam revealed "'inconsistencies that are incompatible with normal anatomical functioning.'" Dr. Kelly concluded that Deaton's longstanding history of anxiety played a major role in her symptomatology, and he assigned zero permanent partial impairment to the body as a whole.
The parties also submitted several doctors' notes regarding treatment Deaton received prior to being informed that her injuries were work-related. More specifically, the parties submitted the medical records from Dr. Mary L. Eastham, Deaton's treating obstetrician. Dr. Eastham noted that Deaton was experiencing "lower quadrant discomfort" in late May 2003, low backache in late June 2003, and right hip pain in July 2003, for which she was taken off work. Deaton returned to work although she was still experiencing some discomfort, but she was ultimately ordered to discontinue work on August 4, 2003.1 Next, Dr. John L. Doyle's notes indicated that he saw Deaton in April 2004, when she complained of numbness of her back and leg. Dr. Doyle diagnosed sciatica of the left SI joint. Finally, Dr. Usha S. Polisetty evaluated Deaton in April 2004 and issued a report that the "EMG/NCV was within normal limits revealing no evidence of lumbosacral or cervical radiculopathy." He diagnosed lumbar and cervical sprains, recommended physical therapy, and prescribed Skelaxin and Naproxen.
Having reviewed all of the evidence, the ALJ found credible the opinions of Dr. Hoskins and Dr. Kelly. However, he ultimately was persuaded by Dr. Hoskins' opinions that Deaton sustained a work-related injury caused by cumulative trauma, had a 17% impairment rating, and was able to return to work with restrictions. The ALJ further held that Deaton was not aware that her back injury was work related until August 2004, that she "provided notice thereafter as soon as practicable[,]" and that her claim was brought within the two-year statute of limitations. The ALJ awarded Deaton benefits accordingly. The Board affirmed the ALJ's decision on the issues pertinent to the petition for review now before us.2
II. Standard of Review
First, we note that a workers' compensation claimant has the burden of proving his claim. Wolf Creek Collieries v. Crum, 673 S.W.2d 735, 736 (Ky.App. 1984). Because Deaton met her burden below, the issue on appeal is whether the ALJ's decision was supported by substantial evidence.3 Id. Substantial evidence is "evidence of substance and relevant consequence having the fitness to induce conviction in the minds of reasonable men." Smyzer v. B.F. Goodrich Chemical Co., 474 S.W.2d 367, 369 (Ky. 1971).
Further, an ALJ has the sole authority to judge the weight, credibility, and inferences to be drawn from the evidence. Miller v. East Ky. Beverage/Pepsico, Inc., 951 S.W.2d 329, 331 (Ky. 1997). He also has the sole discretion to determine the quality, character, and substance of the evidence. Square D Co. v. Tipton, 862 S.W.2d 308, 309 (Ky. 1993). And he is free to reject any testimony, and to believe or disbelieve various parts of the evidence, regardless of whether it comes from the same witness or the same party's proof. Magic Coal Co. v. Fox, 19 S.W.3d 88, 96 (Ky. 2000).
III. Back Injury
Cooper Tire argues that substantial evidence did not support the ALJ's decision that Deaton's back injury was caused by cumulative trauma. We disagree.
An "injury" is "any work-related traumatic event or series of traumatic events, including cumulative trauma, arising out of and in the course of employment which is the proximate cause producing a harmful change in the human organism evidenced by objective medical findings." KRS4 342.0011(1). Here, the ALJ held that Deaton suffered an injury caused by cumulative trauma. This decision was supported by Dr. Hoskins' explicit opinion that Deaton's complaints were caused by cumulative trauma and repetitive strain. As medical causation is a matter for the medical experts, Hill v. Sextet Mining Corp., 65 S.W.3d 503, 507 (Ky. 2001), the ALJ's decision was supported by substantial evidence. Further, as the Board noted in its opinion, this decision was supported by Deaton's testimony that her job at Cooper Tire required repetitive motion.
Next, Cooper Tire argues that the ALJ erred by holding that Deaton gave timely notice of her back injury. We disagree.
Typically, KRS 342.185(1) requires a claimant to give "notice of the accident . . . to the employer as soon as practicable after the happening thereof[.]" However, the notice requirement in a cumulative trauma claim is triggered by a different event than in typical "traumatic event" workers' compensation claims. Indeed, the notice requirement in a cumulative trauma claim is not triggered until a physician informs the claimant that the cause of his condition is work-related. Hill, 65 S.W.3d at 507. The rationale is that medical causation is a matter for medical experts and claimants are not expected to self-diagnose the causes of their harmful changes. Id.
Here, Deaton lifted some boxes at work on August 1, 2003, and experienced low back pain. She sought treatment at the hospital after work and, based on medical advice, believed that her back pain was related to her recent pregnancy until August 2004, when a doctor told her that her pain was work related. Within a week of being so informed, Deaton notified her employer of the work-related injury. As such, substantial evidence supported the ALJ's finding that Deaton notified her employer of her injury, caused by cumulative trauma, as soon as practicable after being informed that her injury was work related.
Next, Cooper Tire argues that the ALJ erred by holding that Deaton timely filed her back injury claim. We disagree.
KRS 342.185(1), in addition to establishing the notice requirement as set forth above, provides the following statute of limitations: "no proceeding under this chapter for compensation for an injury or death shall be maintained . . . unless an application for adjustment of claim for compensation with respect to the injury shall have been made with the office within two (2) years after the date of the accident[.]" Like the notice requirement, the statute of limitations in a cumulative trauma claim is not triggered until a physician informs the claimant that the cause of his condition is work-related. Brown-Forman Corp. v. Upchurch, 127 S.W.3d 615, 620 (Ky. 2004) (claimant's gradual injury claim was timely when filed within two years of the date physician informed her that her problems were work related). Accordingly, Deaton's claim was timely when it was filed in February 2006, which was within two years after her doctor informed her in August 2004 that her back pain was work related.
IV. Neck Injury
Cooper Tire also argues that substantial evidence did not support the ALJ's finding that Deaton suffered a neck injury. We disagree.
Again, in determining that Deaton had suffered a 17% impairment rating, the ALJ relied upon Dr. Hoskins' diagnosis that Deaton suffered "L5-6 disc herniation, L3-4, L4-5, and L5-6 disc bulging, lumbar instability at L5-S1, lumbosacral sprain/strain, bilateral lumbosacral radiculitis, cervical spondylosis, degenerative disc disease at C2-3 through C5-6, cervical sprain/strain, cephalgia, and left shoulder girdle strain/myofascial pain." The ALJ further relied upon Dr. Hoskins' opinion that Deaton's "'complaints were caused by the cumulative trauma and repetitive strain associated with the physical job demands she encountered through her employment at Cooper Tire.'" Simply put, these opinions constitute substantial evidence supporting the ALJ's finding that Deaton suffered a neck injury.
Finally, Cooper Tire argues that the ALJ erred by failing to "carve out" a pre-existing active impairment for Deaton's neck injury. We note that since the employer has the burden of proving a pre-existing active impairment, Finley v. DBM Techs., 217 S.W.3d 261, 265 (Ky.App. 2007), and the ALJ held that Cooper Tire did not meet that burden below, the standard on review is whether the evidence was so overwhelming as to compel a finding in Cooper Tire's favor, Wolf Creek Collieries, 673 S.W.2d at 736.
Cooper Tire raised this issue in its petition for reconsideration of the ALJ's opinion and award, to which the ALJ responded as follows:
Defendant next asserts that a patent error was committed by the failure to carve out a prior active impairment. This Administrative Law Judge has reviewed the record once more in order to correct this problem. I note that Dr. Hoskins had assigned a 17% permanent impairment pursuant to the AMA Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment, 5th Edition. I have found no previous judicial determination of permanent impairment and Dr. Hoskins was of the opinion that the plaintiff had no prior active impairment. I found his opinions more persuasive on this issue. Accordingly, on this issue, [Cooper Tire's] petition for reconsideration is OVERRULED.
We agree with the ALJ's reasoning. Ultimately, because it was within the ALJ's purview to rely upon Dr. Hoskins' opinion that Deaton had no prior active impairment, the evidence did not compel a finding in Cooper Tire's favor on this issue.
The Board's opinion is affirmed.

1 Deaton returned to work six weeks after she gave birth to her son on September 17, 2003.
2 The ALJ also addressed an issue regarding the payment of temporary total disability (TTD) benefits. The Board reversed the ALJ's decision in this regard. However, we need not address the TTD issue as the parties have not raised it in the matter now before us.
3 Cooper Tire incorrectly argues that the standard applicable here is whether the evidence was so overwhelming as to compel a finding in its favor. However, that standard is applicable when an unsuccessful claimant appeals the ALJ's decision, Wolf Creek Collieries, 673 S.W.2d at 736, which did not occur here.

Peace & quiet!!!!!
Scenes from around the park
Show all 9 photos
We arose early today and were on the road at 8:15 central time. We would have made it by 8 except Doug had to air the tires and that took a while.
We had an uneventful trip and stayed on secondary roads most of the day. Sometimes it was slow and beautiful and at other times it was quick and rural. We enjoyed the ride. We have become accustomed to pulling over at a rest stop or even along the side of the road for breaks and then JoAnn will serve sandwiches that she prepared the night before and we munch away as we drive away. Fillmore also gets a break and a bowl of water at the lunch stop.
We are all alone in a large field. We have 50 amp hookup and water. We are at the Al Sihah Shrine Park in Macon GA. It is a no frills Passport America park that costs $14. It is nothing more than a well mowed field with electrical connections around the edge. Yet there is a large meeting room and room for a great many rigs. This is an ideal place for a rally.
We have about a 4 1/2 hour ride tomorrow to Asheville NC. We will settle in at one park for the weekend and then on Monday move to a posher park. Doug has another oncologist appointment on Wed. This will be an initial appointment to get some labs and to get set up for a CT scan. We will stay in the area indefinitely where we hope we will be cool at least at night. The best case scenario will be that no further treatment is necessary at this time and we will probably head west or northeast. If Doug does have to have another series of treatments, he will exercise options as to where to have them.

These women declined to climb the ladder in favor of staying at home with their kids, relying on their spouses' high salaries to pay the bills.
Ten years later, the Times returned to question whether these women had found their work-life happy endings, and found many struggling to re-enter the workforce.

Get started with a free financial assessment.
At the time of the original Times article, Sheilah O'Donnel had just quit her job as a senior executive with a $500,000 annual salary. She felt pushed to the perimeters and less challenged by her work after switching to part-time, and her relationship with her husband was suffering.
RELATED: Does Flex Time Stifle Women?
Quitting didn't solve her marital problems, and not working took a major toll on her sense of self-worth, she told the Times. Following her divorce, O'Donnel needed a means to support herself. She found a job, far lower on the ladder than the one she'd had before, that paid 5 times less, and she had to withdraw money from her old 401(k) and borrow money from her sister to survive before receiving her first paycheck.
Economist and founding president of the Center for Talent Innovation in New York, Sylvia Ann Hewlett, conducted a survey of thousands of women with graduate or bachelor's degrees with honors in 2004 and again in 2009. Of those who took a significant amount of time off—about a third—the majority said they would have wanted to return to work sooner, and 89% of the subjects were looking to rejoin the workforce. Only 73% of them did find a job, 40% at full-time, with about 25% taking a lower-level position and a 16% average pay cut from their previous jobs.
RELATED: This Helps Women Earn More
According to the Times, the most highly educated, wealthy and elite class of women who opted out were readily able to find jobs, though they earned less. Still, these women said they found the jobs more fulfilling and suited to better work-life balance than the high-powered jobs they had before they left to raise a family.
Lisa Belkin, who authored the 2003 Times piece, reconnected with some of the women she had interviewed. For at least one, "The world had changed in her favor; the part-time work they wouldn't give her is now what they were willing to give," she told the Times.
At the same time, most women who returned to the workforce took jobs in more female-dominated, less competitive environments, though many had previously pursued careers in more traditionally male fields, according to a prolonged study by sociologist Pamela Stone.

And for those "who didn't have the highest academic credentials or highest-powered social networks or who hadn't been sufficiently 'strategic' in their volunteering," finding a job was much more difficult, the Times reported. Divorce also proved an obstacle in the job hunt.
In Stone's study, husbands went from indifference to their wives' working status to preferring that their wives stay at home. At the same time, wives felt more pressured into more traditional—and less egalitarian—gender roles.
For Brown University and John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard grad Carrie Chimerine Irvin, it was the expectations for housekeeping, not childrearing, that made her feel underappreciated at home. She decided to resume her career, finding work she loved as the co-founder of a non-profit start-up. But like many other women, it was her marriage that suffered as a result of her attempt to balance the demands of work and motherhood.
RELATED: Is Your Husband Really Pulling His Weight?
Women "opting out" may have given employers an excuse not to become more accommodating to working parents, the Times reported. Women choosing not to battle to the top has also left certain fields with their gender balance out of whack—just 4% of Fortune 500 chief executives, 17% of corporate board members, 20% of law partners and 19% of Congress members are female.
However, for the majority of former stay-at-home moms, it's no longer about striving for high-powered professions, the Times reported. Their interest is in intellectually engaging, part-time jobs that leave them some flexibility. But after years out of the workforce, even that may be out of reach.

"Fight on, Drexel!" "Stand Strong Drexel!"
Those were representative of the comments that flowed from some financial aid officers [1] and other college officials last month when New York Attorney General Andrew M. Cuomo threatened to sue Drexel University and the Pennsylvania private institution vowed in strong terms to go to court to defend the revenue sharing arrangement it had with a lender. Some campus officials felt that Cuomo and other critics were painting their industry with an overly broad brush and overreaching in implying that laws had been broken. Someone needed to stand up to him, they suggested, and Drexel took up the mantle.
"Drexel will vigorously defend its position in this matter and will fully respond to any lawsuit in due course. We believe the allegations are without foundation in law or in fact," President Constantine Papadakis said in an April 19 prepared statement. He didn't stop there, lashing out at the attorney general. "The timing and public release of the attorney general's notice of intent to sue raises troubling questions as to his motivations and to his tactics. Indeed, his conduct violates fundamental principles of fair play to which Drexel and its students are entitled, and therefore we will move forcefully to protect our position in this matter."
But Tuesday, Cuomo's office sent out the latest in its steady stream of news releases [2] about colleges or lenders settling the attorney general's accusations against them, and this time, Drexel (as well as Capella University) was featured.
Under the terms of the accord, Drexel agreed to redistribute to student borrowers about $250,000 that it had received from Education Finance Partners as part of revenue sharing agreements in which the lender paid the university a portion of the private loans its students took out. Drexel also agreed to abide by the code of conduct that Cuomo's office has promulgated, and that two dozen colleges and a half-dozen lenders have endorsed.
Drexel officials did not return telephone calls seeking an explanation for their drastic about-face. In a brief written statement, which was not available online as of Tuesday evening, the university said that it had settled as a way of "avoiding the expense and distraction of protracted litigation." The statement said that the university's "revenue reinvestment" arrangement with the lender had not influenced Drexel's decision to put Education Finance on its list of preferred lenders, as Cuomo had charged, and that the university had given $115,000 of the $124,000 it had received from the company so far to students "who faced sudden emergency situations."
With Drexel declining to discuss its change of heart, college officials who have been following the cascading and overlapping student loan inquiries were left to speculate. Some noted that Cuomo's announcement about Drexel and Capella (see below) had come a day after the University of Texas System released the results of its investigation into charges that Cuomo had made against the financial aid chief at the university's Austin campus, which uncovered a series of troubling practices that seemed to take university officials by surprise.
The Texas situation, which resulted in the firing Monday of Lawrence J. Burt, drove home for many observers just how little some top university administrators may know about the practices taking place in their financial aid offices. After reacting belligerently to Cuomo's planned lawsuit on the night it was announced, Drexel officials may have encountered a similar feeling when they examined their own practices more closely in the light of day, people familiar with the university's situation said Tuesday.
"They had a sense that they wanted to fight at first, but after thinking it over, they decided" otherwise, said one source who requested anonymity.
The other settlement Cuomo announced Tuesday was with Capella, which at the same time struck a deal [3] with Lori Swanson, the attorney general in the university's home state of Minnesota. The New York attorney general had revealed last month [4] that Tim Lehmann, director of financial aid at Capella, had received $12,400 from another lender, Student Loan Xpress, in 2006 for consulting work, helping the company find better ways of working with online students. Capella had included Student Loan Xpress on its list of recommended lenders to students before Lehmann arrived at the university in 2001.
In his announcement Tuesday, Cuomo fleshed out details. "Between 2003 and 2007, Lehmann served on the advisory boards of several banks and lenders for varying periods of time, including Wells Fargo, Nelnet, Chase, Student Loan Xpress, Citibank, T.H.E. Northstar, Wachovia, College Loan Corporation, EdFinancial, and TERI/First Marblehead," the attorney general's office said. "In addition to travel, lodging, meals, and gifts, the loan companies treated Lehmann to approximately one or two rounds of golf at most advisory board meetings. Furthermore, Lehmann received travel, lodging, meals, entertainment, and gifts – such as wine, golf accessories, and clothing – as part of the sales and marketing initiatives of those lenders. Lehmann also received thousands of dollars in honoraria from some of the lenders."
Cuomo's announcement Tuesday (and Capella's own [5]) said that university officials had not known about or approved of Lehmann's consulting arrangement, which violated university policy. Capella said that Lehmann remains on administrative leave.

Influence Between Compliance to Therapy and Psychological Burden of Diabetes Mellitus among Patients
Behavioural changes and adherence to therapeutic regimes are essential for improving the prognosis of chronic illness. Generally, chronic conditions can be defined as illness or diseases that have a prolonged course that do not resolve spontaneously, and for which complete cures are rare. (Makenna, Taylor, Marks, 1998). The specific condition may be as a result of illness, genetic factors, or injury. It may be a consequence of conditions or unhealthy behaviours that began during childhood or young adulthood. [Read more…]

BBC newsreader Alice Arnold has been called a "national heroine" after confronting litterbugs who threw a plastic bottle from their car in Hampton Court in Surrey on Monday. Arnold took matters into her own hands by getting out of her car, picking the bottle up and hurling it back through the window.
Speaking to the Evening Standard, Arnold said: "I saw this car in front of mine with the windows wide open and out came this purple plastic bottle. Because we were sitting in stationary traffic we weren't going anywhere. So I just got out and picked it up and threw it back in."
Have you ever committed an act of public service to rival Arnold's? Ever stopped a mugger? Prevented antisocial behaviour? Broken up a fight? Or have you witnessed something illegal and been too afraid to get involved? Tell us all about your small acts of heroism.

Excellent form, content and execution!
Glad to see someone else uses a 500 year old poetic form - correctly! (I'm guilty of writing...a few...sonnets.) Gotta hand it to anyone who not only gets all the parts right, but does it with style.
Try a Wyatt-style poem: ABBA CDDC EFFE GG, (which is a variant of the Italian form) an Ottava Rima or if you're VERY daring try a sestina.
"Golden Prison" indeed!

Breaking the Mold
Are we becoming allergic to the 21st century?
CBC Newsworld aired Allergy Planet on The Passionate Eye (Mar. 16/09).
The doc, produced and directed by Naomi Austin, takes you from the most remote inhabited island, where 50% of its 400 residents are affected by asthma, to the impact of industrialization and pollution in L.A.
Narrated by Steven Mackintosh, Allergy Planet's examination of current research demonstrates one clear conclusion of immunologists: allergies are still a mystery.
The CBC doesn't have the episode available online, but I found the BBC airing on YouTube - sorry, it's in 6 segments.

Notre Dame Football: Over/Under 2013 Win Total Predictions for the IrishJune 3, 2013
Let the traditional offseason musings commence.
With college football at its driest point from a news perspective, the arenas of debate in all categories have been intensified, particularly in the realm of win totals for programs around the country.
After reaching the national championship for the first time in 24 seasons, the expectations for Notre Dame's 2013 season were astronomical prior to the news of incumbent starting quarterback Everett Golson's dismissal from the school due to "poor academic judgment."
Regardless, the Irish must trudge forward with the quarterbacks remaining on the roster—Tommy Rees, Andrew Hendrix and Malik Zaire.
No matter which of the trio head coach Brian Kelly tabs as his starter, expectations in the win column have certainly been scaled back, particularly considering the Irish's dismal final record of 8-5 to finish the 2011 season with Rees—himself a turnover waiting to happen—leading the offense.
Peering at Notre Dame's 2013 schedule, it seems a barrage of challenges await.
There are no "gimmes" on this slate.
However, if I were a betting man, I'd put my money on Irish victories in four contests—vs. Temple, at Purdue, at Air Force and vs. Navy.
Temple is an up-and-coming program led by first-year head coach Matt Rhule, though the Owls don't pose a serious threat to the Irish, especially in the season opener at Notre Dame Stadium. The same can be said for Purdue, which is also under the direction of a first-year head coach in Darrell Hazell, though Kelly and Co. will travel to Ross-Ade Stadium for that contest.
As for the service academies, the Irish defense has displayed a mastery of containing the triple-option offense, limiting Navy and Air Force to a combined 57 points in three contests since 2011, each of which ended with a Notre Dame victory.
The remaining eight games of the schedule are where predicting becomes an unenviable task.
Matchups with Michigan, Michigan State, Oklahoma, Arizona State, USC, Pittsburgh, BYU and Stanford have each become questionable at best.
Notre Dame's defense will allow the Irish opportunities to earn victories against those opponents, but meetings with strong defensive teams—Michigan State, BYU and Stanford—loom large because of the offense's now-perceived difficulty of putting points on the board.
However, Notre Dame gets both Michigan State and BYU at home, giving me the inclination to peg each game as an Irish victory, though Stanford should be considered a surefire loss at present.
Next, we have what I'm considering tossup games—Michigan, Oklahoma, Arizona State and USC.
Because Michigan has yet to lose a game at Michigan Stadium during the Brady Hoke era, the Wolverines should be the popular choice to defeat Notre Dame for the fourth time in five seasons.
The Sooners of Oklahoma will arrive at Notre Dame during the final weekend in September having suffered a defeat at the hands of the Irish in Norman, Okla., last season, and revenge will certainly be a storyline leading up to the game. Yet the ability of Notre Dame's defense to stifle the Sooners' high-octane offensive attack leads me to believe a similar outcome will ensue this season, and it helps that the Irish get this one at home.
Finally, we have two Pac-12 opponents—Arizona State and USC.
Notre Dame will meet Todd Graham and his Sun Devils at Cowboys Stadium in Dallas Oct. 5 for the annual Shamrock Series game. Graham has given Notre Dame fits two out of the last three seasons, as his Tulsa squad upset the Irish, 28-27, at Notre Dame Stadium in 2010. The following season, Graham's Pittsburgh team narrowly lost to Kelly and Co., 15-12 at Heinz Field.
Because Graham has been so ultra-competitive against Notre Dame in recent seasons, I'd typically be inclined to peg the Arizona State game as an upset, but the Irish are 4-0 in Shamrock Series games. I'm taking Notre Dame here.
USC will be quite a compelling matchup, as the Trojans' incumbent starting quarterback, Max Wittek, had the first start of his career against Notre Dame last season, which the Irish won, 22-13.
Wittek will likely be the starter once again this season and will be gunning for an upset. If he can guide the Trojans offense to enough scores, USC could walk away with its sixth consecutive victory at Notre Dame Stadium, which dates back to 2003.
My gut feeling is that the Trojans walk away with a notch in the win column following that contest, which brings Notre Dame's over/under for total victories to nine.
Of course, many occurrences will transpire between now and the beginning of the 2013 season, possibly altering this prediction, but as of now, my number stands at nine.
And may the debate commence.

"Ask Jenascia...
I get really effin bored (waitin' for my car to get fixed) and since I am addicted to Myspace, I decided it might be fun to start a blog called "Ask Jenascia" where you can ask me whatever you want (within reason of course) and I'll answer it.
Why do I want to do this? you ask...Well, I get a lot of mail asking a lot of the same questions and I figured I could save everyone some time by making my responses public.
Also, if you need advice or an opinion (which I have plenty of), feel free to ask and I shall respond. All you gotta do is go to my page, click on my blog "Ask Jenascia" and VIOLA! If you'd like to keep your question private, then it's okay to send me a message as well.
If you don't want to "Ask Jenascia"... then don't! LOL

Introduction, 1990-1996
The European Commission has
sponsored research into Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies
(TSEs) since 1990. This research effort was rapidly and
substantially increased following the announcement by the UK
Government (20/03/1996) that the appearance of 10 cases of a new
variant of Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (vCJD) could be linked to
exposure to Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE).
Action Plan on TSEs and Fourth
Framework Programme, 1994-1998
In April 1996, the Commission
invited Professor Charles Weissmann to Chair a group with the
objectives of producing an inventory of the state of knowledge on
BSE, and proposing future research priorities. Professor Weissmanns
report was published in October 1996 and formed the basis of a
communication from the Commission to the Council (COM (96) 582)
proposing an Action Plan on TSEs. The Action Plan also took into
account the recommendations of the Multidisciplinary Scientific
Committee as well as ongoing national and Community research
activities. Based on the Council recommendations, the action plan
comprised two levels:
The co-ordination of activities between Member
States, aimed at harmonization of data collection and diagnostic
A specific call for RTD actions, intended to
stimulate research efforts at a Community level and to mobilise
new and complementary expertise in order to attain European
critical mass in the area.
The first of three calls for
research proposals under this initiative was made in December 1996,
the last in March 1998. A total of 54 projects were commissioned
under this Action Plan, with support totalling 50.7m. This
support derived from the BIOMED,
BIOTECH and FAIR
programmes. The Action Plan resulted in an excellent mobilisation of
expertise in a wide range of scientific disciplines, from more than
120 laboratories throughout the Member States and associated
The Fifth Framework Programme, 1998-2002
The Fifth
Framework Programme (1998-2002) builds on the foundations of the
Fourth FP, and has seen 26 TSE projects (~30m) supported both
from general calls for research projects (11), as well as from 2001s
specific call for TSE research (15).
Specific Call for TSE Research and
the Inventories of TSE Research Activities in Europe, 2001
In November 2000, the Research
Council requested the Commission to establish a TSE Expert Group
with a mandate to:
examine the state of TSE research;
encourage the exchange of
scientific information between research teams;
identify ongoing research
activities which need to be strengthened, as well as new research
activities which need to be launched.
The Group is composed of
representatives nominated from the Member States, Associated
Countries, some members of the TSE/BSE ad hoc group of the
Scientific Steering Committee and some co-ordinators of EU research
projects. In April 2002 it was expanded to include members from
Central and Eastern European States.
Included in the aims of the Action
Plan was the objective to expand and regularly update the inventory
of TSE research activities in Member States, originally drafted by
Professor Weismann. An analysis of the most recent version of this
document (April 2001) by the TSE Expert Group and the Commission
Services resulted in the launch of a specific call for TSE proposals, intended to fill the gaps in the European TSE
research effort, and a communication from the Commission to the
Council and the European Parliament (COM (2001) 323). A total of 15
new TSE projects were commissioned from this call with support
totalling 21m, all of which, subject to the successful conclusion
of contract negotiation, will commence in 2002.
The Sixth Framework Programme and
Future Actions, 2002-2006
2002 also sees the launch of the Sixth Framework
Programme for Research and Technological Development. The most up to
date details of this can be found at http://ec.europa.eu/research/fp6/p5/
In September 2000, a catalogue of the 54 projects
funded under the Action Plan was produced, and remains available
from the Commission's Research DG (see list of contacts);
this is currently being updated to include results and outcomes from
these projects and abstracts of more recently funded projects.
The purpose of this web site is fourfold and

Westport cops are Santa's helpers starting Saturday
Published 5:56 pm, Friday, December 7, 2012
The annual toy drive for underprivileged children organized by Westport police officers gets under way in earnest Saturday, with a plea that the need is acute this year in the wake of Hurricane Sandy.
Officers will collect toys and cash donations in the Athletic Shoe Factory parking lot, 1560 Post Road East, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays, Dec. 8 and 9, 15 and 16.
New and unwrapped toys, plus cash donations, are also being accepted through Dec. 16 at Police Department headquarters, 50 Jesup Road.
The drive is sponsored by the Westport Police Union Local 2080 and Police Benevolent Association.
Drive organizers said they anticipate greater need than in past years because families are struggling to recover from destruction caused by Sandy.

BEIJING: China's top official for ethnic affairs indicated yesterday that there will be no softening of the Communist Party's struggle against the Dalai Lama by the country's new leadership.
The Dalai Lama has deviated from Tibetan Buddhist tradition and remains intent on splitting Tibet from China, the party's fourth-ranking official, Yu Zhengsheng, said on a visit to a Tibetan area of the western province of Gansu.
Yu said the exiled Tibetan Buddhist leader's proposal for a "middle way" of meaningful autonomy for all traditionally Tibetan areas is in opposition to China's constitution and policies on self-governance by ethnic minorities.
"In order to safeguard national unity and the development and stability of Tibetan regions, we must open a clear and profound struggle against the Dalai clique," Yu said, employing Beijing's standard term for the Dalai Lama and his followers.
Tibetan Buddhists must draw a clear political line between themselves and the Dalai Lama, oppose all forms of separatism, and actions harmful to the party's leadership and the socialist system, he said.
China says it has made vast investments to boost the region's economy and improve the quality of life for the country's 5.4 million Tibetans. Much of Yu's speech focused on those measures, while he also pledged to expand the use of Mandarin Chinese alongside Tibetan in education to improve job prospects.
Recent years have seen the self-immolation of a reported 119 Tibetans in protest at Chinese rule and repeated clashes at Buddhist monasteries and Tibetan town.
Reports say Chinese paramilitary police fired on Tibetans seeking to commemorate the Dalai Lama's 78th birthday on Saturday, injuring at least six people.
The Dalai Lama says he wants only meaningful autonomy for Tibet rather than independence. China says Tibet has been part of its territory for centuries, although many Tibetans say they were largely independent prior to the 1950 occupation by communist troops.

I keep seeing threads from DPS who want to "fix the lack of tanks in LFR". I thought it'd be more useful to see why people don't tank LFR at the moment. Poll inc ...
For myself, I currently tank LFR on my monk but will stop soon since he doesn't need the gear. He's also the guild's MT and we're running Flex.
I've tanked a couple of times on my DK but often don't have the free time to do another set of LFR raids.
I would tank on my warr occasionally but he's still carrying a blue shield (not had one drop in any raid, and he's done MSV, HoF, ToES, ToT). I already know the abuse he'd get in LFR with a blue shield.
I might start tanking on the druid again, but I've not really played him this expansion. At the moment he's in mostly Timeless pieces, but should be fine once I've done a heroic dungeon to see how the bear's changed.
[edit] Aaaaand I forgot the obvious poll option - I *do* tank LFR. Ah well, put that as "other"


text: The best thing is, some sites have the one binary, some the other, so depending on your pkgsrc configuration (MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE, etc.) and connectivity, you may still get one or the other. In Japan, I seem to pretty consistently get the old one, not the new one (in terms of when the checksums were committed). I wonder, do we want a way to deal with multiple checksums? Or do we perhaps want to try to chase down all the holders of one and get them to switch to the other? Or just rename the source tarball, put it on the NetBSD servers, and make everyone get it from there? At the very least, we could chase down the Japanese copies and get them to match.

from The Century Dictionary and Cyclopedia
- n. The state of being a cripple; crippleness.
- n. Cripples collectively.
Sorry, no etymologies found.
To one producer he wrote, "I want to highlight the creativity within the brain of a cripple, and while not attempting to hide the crippledom I want instead to filter all sob-storied sentiment from his portrait and dwell upon his life, his laughter, his vision, and his nervous normality."
If they want to stay in the game they make $30-$50k a year in the euro leagues, the arena leagues, the CFL, or the Asian leagues; beating themselves into early crippledom before they hit 30, for a lot less than an auto mechanic makes.
Kedzie was too excited to note the ghoulish joy with which he planned to put her into the most perilous plights that had ever threatened even a movie star with death or crippledom.
A few weeks earlier she would have been heartbroken at the prospect of a spell of crippledom, but the greater troubles eclipse the less, and compared with that other paralysing dread, it was a passing inconvenience at which she could afford to smile.
'I'll tie myself in a knot, and shalt wheel me through; and what with my crippledom and thy piety, a-wheeling of thy poor old dad, we'll bleed the bumpkins of a dacha-saltee.'
Several narratives intertwine as Lovric charts Marcella's tortuous, Minguillo-instigated progress through crippledom, a lunatic asylum and eventually a convent, including that of the fanatical nun Sor Loreta, who mortifies her body and starves herself to attain holiness while being as vile as possible to the less saintly nuns around her.
Will the disabled still have access to / benefit from these new inspirations or will we be further isolated not, this time, by the way society responds to impairment, but by the designers themselves, the designers who want their ideas and products to succeed in a world that is repulsed by crippledom?
The remainder of my life at Oxford was of necessity lived at half-speed; and in this place I must commemorate, with a gratitude which the lapse of years has never chilled, the extraordinary kindness and tenderness with which my undergraduate friends tended and nursed me in that time of crippledom.

Atletico puts price on Radamel Falcao
Despite reports that Atletico Madrid is trying to hold on to Radamel Falcao, GM Miguel Angel Gil Marin put a price on him Tuesday, saying that if Atletico doesn't get into the Champions League, the team can't afford Falcao.
"Falcao's €60 million ($77.2 million) would solve a lot of our economic problems," Gil Marin said on Spanish radio station COPE, while insisting that Falcao will finish the season with his team. "With security (he will). Him and all the players the coach wants will stay."
"If Atletico doesn't get into Champions and can't pay what Falcao is asking, I don't think that Madrid can cover it."
Meanwhile, Falcao said he doesn't think Atletico has a chance to win La Liga, despite the fact that they are even with Barcelona at the top of the standings after Sunday's 2-1 win over Malaga. Falcao said he is shooting for Champions.
"No, Champions is our goal," Falcao told El Tiempo newspaper in Colombia this week as he prepares for his home country's World Cup qualifier vs. Paraguay. "We have the capacity to do it. Now in the league we are battling teams with greater budgets that are very superior to the rest of La Liga and who have the best players in the world. You have to be very consistent all year to fight against them. We worry about beating the rival we have each Sunday and then we are closer to the end of the season."
Atletico's financial struggles reflect those of Spain in general, and the club owes an estimated $441 million to the Spanish tax authorities and prize money withheld by UEFA because of a failure to make repayments. Falcao has been linked to Real Madrid and Chelsea in transfer rumors for the upcoming window.
Falcao signed for Atletico for €40 million ($50.7 million) from Porto in the summer of 2011. Gil Marin suggested earlier this summer that he would be sold at some point given the club's precarious financial situation.

A Call to Action from Southeast Asian American Community Groups Regarding Unjust Deportation and Detention Laws
Apr 25 A Call to Action from Southeast Asian American Community Groups Regarding Unjust Deportation and Detention Laws
One Love Movement, Pennsylvania
Below is a snippet of a Call to Action from SEARAC and our fellow Southeast Asian American Community Groups. To view the full statement click here.
We call on our brothers and sisters all over the country to speak out to the White House, WHIAAPI, and members of the US Congress in solidarity against deportation of those who fall under the misused and politically exploited category of "Criminal Alien", and advocate for Southeast Asian American families. We need to fight against the racist, classist, anti-immigrant, and anti-refugee sentiment that affects all of us. We cannot allow politics to deter us from our unity as human beings and make us sacrifice one community over another.
We call on communities who are faced with school-to-prison pipeline, juvenile and criminal justice, racial profiling and re-entry issues to stand with us in this fight, because these are our experiences too. We call on communities fighting for immigrant rights to stop using "criminal" vs. "non-criminal" language in the immigration debate, as it plays into a system of language that oppresses and simplifies our stories, and divides immigrant communities.
Cambodian Americans who pledged allegiance to the flag, and are then retroactively torn away from the arms of their families for crimes they have already been punished for – is a reality for us EVERYDAY. We call on our communities to stand up and fight for what is ours – our rights, our homes, our families, our dignity – and march with love in our hearts and our fists in the air! We will not be silenced!
Here are steps you can take to get involved:
- Organize a community screening of Studio Revolt's My Asian Americana and Return to Sender in your home or other space. Discuss the issue and brainstorm how you can organize your community together. And continue to follow the work of Studio Revolt.
- Write a statement against unjust and retroactive deportation for past criminal convictions, the silencing of this issue, and ICE and DHS's destructive policies that rip families apart. Send it to the White House, WHIAAPI, and your US Congressional members. You can find out who they are at www.house.gov and www.senate.gov. Send us a copy and we'll post your letters on One Love Movement's website: firstname.lastname@example.com
- Become more educated on this issue and spread the tools to others. See Deported Diaspora's Resources and Links, One Love's Know The Issue, and Families For Freedom, Immigrant Defense Project, National Immigration Project and Detention Watch Network's Community Organizing Manual Deportation 101.
- Join the SEARAC's legislative visit database – commit to visiting your local and federal elected officials to engage them on this issue. For more info, email firstname.lastname@example.com.
- Read and share One Love's Statement against the government's use of the word "Criminal" to target our loved ones, and join our Mailing List to stay informed. And see PrYSM's End Racial Profiling Campaign to learn how to organize against institutionalized oppression of law enforcement in your community.
