House, kindly give ur advice, can a man who is impotent ever get a permanent cure?
Happiness is all i see now I never thought that I will live on earth before the year runs out. I have been suffering from a deadly disease (HIV) for the past 3 years now; I had spent a lot of money going from one places to another, from churches to churches, hospitals have been my home every day residence. Constant checks up have been my hobby not until this blessed day, I was searching through the internet, I saw a testimony on how DR Camala helped someone in curing his HIV disease, quickly I copied his email which is email@example.com just to give him a test I spoke to him, he asked me to do some certain things which I did, he told me that he is going to provide the herbal cure to me, which he did, then he asked me to go for medical checkup after some days after using the herbal cure, I was free from the deadly disease, he only asked me to post the testimony through the whole world, faithfully am doing it now, please brothers and sisters, he is great, I owe him in return. if you are having a similar problem just email him on ( firstname.lastname@example.com ) PHONE/WHATS APP : +2349055637784

Sorry, I'm not following this thread but I guess you are talking about giving meaning to literals. I mean use data types for literals, so, instead of having... John is 23 I would have John is age1234 age1234 type integer age1234 value 23 Is that right? That suposes that we will have an instance of RDF with the triple of sentences for each literal we had in the original one. When you have a really big model this is not posible, I think that this is ok, if you need it but using a new extension, name it DataTypedRDF DTRDF or something like this but if you want to use the model without typing, why not???? It's a model that doesn't know anything about semantics 010 is different that 10, two literals 10 and 10 are diferent, you must compare them in your application, maybe you will never need this comparation, so, why add them to the RDF Core? RDF Core must be as easy as possible, RDF Schema should be, too, an each extension over a basic model will be more complex, but you will use it, only if you need it.

Wausau FD Shares Holiday Spirit with Code-3 Light Show
Date: 2015-12-11
From a story by Courtney Terlecki, Multimedia Journalist posted at WAOW/Wausau
In a unique holiday light show display, the Wausau, Wisconsin, Fire Department helped create a unique light show using fire trucks and ambulances.
The idea came from Wausau West High School student Hunter Stark, who suggested the project to WFD officials. Stark also edited the 3-minute video of the light show, synced to the song "Wizards in Winter" by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra.
"We like to have a little bit of fun too, and be involved in stuff that brightens peoples days," Wausau Battalion chief Paul Czarapata told WAOW journalist Courtney Terlecki. Chief Czarapata told WAOW that it took 30 minutes to line up the trucks and the flashing lights, operated by crew members in time to the music.

Maj. Robert Catullo, the commander of the troop overseeing northern New Jersey, was among those reassigned late Friday, The Star-Ledger of Newark reported Sunday (http://bit.ly/IkIyAC), citing three unidentified people with knowledge of the moves. Also moved were Catullo's deputy commander, Capt. Michael Cerisano, and a region commander, Capt. Warren Moore.
It wasn't clear what role, if any, the transferred troopers might have played in the escorts or where they will now be stationed.
State Police Lt. Stephen Jones said 10 commanders were transferred overall Friday in "a re-alignment aimed at the Operations Branch." Jones said the transfers came in light of recent ongoing internal investigations, but did not say how many of the transfers related to the high-speed escorts. He also declined to identify the troopers involved.
Two troopers were suspended without pay last Monday after news reports recounted witnesses who said they saw the caravan of a few dozen high-performance luxury cars speeding down the Garden State Parkway at 100 mph on March 30, escorted by two state police cars. A station commander also was reportedly reassigned Monday.
The 54-year-old Catullo, a 30-year veteran of the force, must retire by year's end because he will reach the state police's mandatory retirement age. The 53-year-old Cerisano has been a trooper for about 27 years while Moore, 51, has been a trooper for about 24 years.
Catullo is one of 16 majors in Fuentes' command staff, according to the state police website. The majors are overseen by four lieutenant colonels who report directly to Fuentes.
Catullo led Totowa-based Troop B, which covers 2,807 square miles and about 5 million people in northern Jersey. The job of commander there is one of the most powerful and coveted jobs within the state police and includes overseeing the Meadowlands Sports Complex.
The troop is also responsible for working closely with the U.S. Secret Service to escort and protect dignitaries, including presidents, cabinet members and military generals, according to the agency's website. _

Human trafficking victims need many services
Updated 5:03 pm, Thursday, October 10, 2013
In the calm before the campaign season storm, let's take one last look back at the 2013 Texas Legislature. While most Texans will remember 2013 for its acrimonious special sessions, bipartisan cooperation was the norm in the Legislature's regular session. The "Purple Thursdays" of May sound almost quaint four months later.
Our state's leaders quietly worked to address the state's biggest challenges. Legislators worked together to restore some of 2011's devastating cuts to public schools and to give Texas voters the chance to determine the fate of big-ticket infrastructure projects. Members from both parties worked together to expand school breakfast programs and provide home visiting services to more struggling families. It was a good and productive session for the people of Texas.
Perhaps none of the bipartisan measures passed in 2013 is more important than new efforts to protect and support victims of human trafficking. Texans should be proud to know that countless Democrats and Republicans — even likely gubernatorial candidates Attorney General Greg Abbott and Texas Sen. Wendy Davis — came together to fight this horrible crime.
Now, the time comes to make sure that last session's good intentions and new laws are implemented effectively and well. One of this session's most important human trafficking bills could very well set the national standard for victim services. In 2013, Texas became the first state in the country to pass legislation requiring standards for safe houses for victims of human trafficking.
Human trafficking safe houses are residential facilities that provide comprehensive services to victims. Victims of human trafficking often need mental, physical, social, educational and other services beyond the capacity of existing facilities for youth. Without these higher level wrap-around services, many victims return to the pimps who have profited from their prostitution.
Because Texas will be the first state to create standards for safe houses, it is critical that we get it right, as other states will follow our lead. The Texas Legislature has tasked the Texas Health and Human Services Commission with writing these new rules. Children At Risk believes the Legislature must keep careful watch on the creation of the standards to ensure its intent to provide comprehensive services is maintained.
Children At Risk recently partnered with Shared Hope International and other victims' advocates to examine national best practices for human trafficking safe houses. The Texas Senate and House of Representatives should partner with Children At Risk, state agencies and others during the critical legislative interim.
Our research about what victims of human trafficking need and deserve to begin their recovery from this most heinous of crimes, is very clear. We urge Texas Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst and House Speaker Joe Straus to implore the committees of the Legislature to closely monitor the creation of safe house standards, and also implement research-based best practices, including:
Trauma-informed care with continued training for staff;
Qualifications of staff and lower caregiver-to-child ratios;
Comprehensive transitional and aftercare services.
In the weeks and months to come, the Legislature will release its "interim charges," and committees will begin studying the issues that will become the basis for legislative debate in 2015. This is the ideal time to build upon the bipartisan cooperation and support that have become the hallmark of efforts to fight human trafficking in Texas.

Instant Happy: Symptoms / Skeletons / Morells Stor
- Artist: The Morells
- Genre: Rock
- Release Date: 9/18/2007
Tom Taber of ALMERON RECORDS says: 'I never thought I'd release another CD after The Morells Anthology 4 CD set - wouldn't do any more unless they could be as entertaining to me as that set was. (As Rick Nelson so wisely said, 'You can't please everyone, so you've got to please yourself.') Then I acquired some more tapes, and began to see the possibilities. My major regret is that I can never hear these great songs fresh, like Joe Public can, because I spent so much time with them for the past many months! 'Taken from around 16 shows from 1978-2002, sound quality varies from a few very good to (the vast majority) excellent. I managed to come up with around 75 tunes that weren't on the Anthology, and crammed about 5 hours and 15 minutes on the 4 discs. Nobody yet has told me the other releases suck, and I don't expect to hear many say this one does either! It warms my heart to have word get back to me of someone believing that the Anthology is their favorite CD set of all time! Hope some of you can put this at least in your top 30... 'If you purchase it, PLEASE come back here to post a review.' September 21, 2007 - I received an email from a customer in Spain - 'Wowwww!!!! Just amazing, Tom. Everything I expected and more!!!!' I take it he liked it! Two comments received 9/27 - 'Wow!!! Amazing stuff!!!' and 'Got the boxset - listening to it now, and it is grrreeaaattt!!!' I take it that people like it.

Will the cost of implementing virtual reality programs pose financial hardship on schools?
- print Print
- list Cite
Any technological upgrade at a school, including a medical school, involves costs, sometimes substantial. Introducing the computer into mass education involved considerable initial expenditures for the equipment, its maintenance and repair, and the obligatory periodic updates needed to remain current. The purchase by hospitals and clinics of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) equipment posed such a cost on the facilities investing in them.
Introducing virtual reality programs into medical education will similarly involve costs. How much of a burden on the school's budget that represents is dependent on several factors, for example, whether the state or federal government is providing funding for the purchase of the equipment, whether a wealthy donor is providing funding, or whether the cost of the purchase will simply be passed along to the students in the way of increased tuition. The use of virtual reality programs in the education of medical students will almost certainly prove beneficial to the public, and the costs associated with that education will consequently be passed on to the public in the form of higher taxes, higher tuitions, and/or higher medical bills.

The rules for dropping palette objects are simple; they are enforced by error messages when they are violated.
Windows (main window, custom dialog, file selection dialog) are dropped on the workspace.
Panes (control, draw area, text, and term) are dropped on windows or on other panes.
Controls (buttons, boxes, choice objects, and others) are dropped on a control pane. The menu bar, which is on the Controls palette, is not strictly a control; it is dropped on a main window only.
Drag a main window, custom dialog, or a file selection dialog box from the Windows palette and drop it on the workspace.
If you haven't previously named the module, the Module Name dialog box will be displayed. Move the cursor to the Module Name dialog box, type a name, and click Apply.
The module name will be displayed in the status area at the bottom of the window.
Edit the properties of the window object, if necessary.
This can be done now or later. See "To Edit Properties of an Object" for general instructions. See "Example: Editing Main Window Properties" for specific instructions for a main window or a primary main window.
Often you will want a control pane to fill the entire blank pane area of a main window or custom dialog. You can then drop controls or other panes on the control pane to create a complex window such as the App Builder primary window. Do the following once you have dropped a main window or custom dialog on the workspace.
Drag a control pane from the Panes palette and drop it on the top-left corner of the main window or custom dialog.
Drag the bottom-right corner of the control pane (an arrow pointing towards a corner will be displayed) beyond the bottom-right corner of the window and release mouse button 1.
The control pane will be attached to the four sides of the window. If you resize the window, the control pane will be resized with it.
See "To Attach Objects in an Interface" for details about attachments.

America certainly has some problems. But worse than Cyprus?
In one way, yes. A new report published by the nonprofit Milken Institute ranks 98 countries in terms of their ability to attract foreign capital. Cyprus ranks 19th. The United States ranks 23rd. If you believe those results, a tiny nation whose financial system is about to collapse is more appealing to investors than the world's largest and most diverse economy.
There's logic to those startling rankings. The Milken "global opportunity index" tends to emphasize low regulatory barriers, which is why Hong Kong and Singapore are typically at the top of the list. Cyprus, known as "the Cayman Islands of the Mediterranean," is notorious for low taxes and loose rules that, among other things, attract a lot of money from Russian oligarchs. Much of the money that fuels the Cypriot economy does, in fact, come from elsewhere.
[READ: Cyprus Continues to Threaten U.S. Investors]
It's worth noting, however, that Milken conducted the research in 2012, before it was apparent the banking system in tiny Cyprus was headed toward insolvency. That situation has become acute in recent weeks, with Cyprus declaring a bank holiday to prevent a full-blown run on its financial system. If Cypriot leaders and their counterparts in Europe don't agree on a rescue package soon, Cyprus could be the first nation to leave the euro zone, triggering who-knows-what kind of panic elsewhere in Europe.
America is obviously in better shape than that, yet the Milken rankings echo other findings that highlight the deteriorating business climate in the United States. Five years ago, the United States ranked 16th in the Milken index, and the change in America's score since then is worse than all but nine other countries. That's similar to the U.S. performance in the World Economic Forum's annual survey of business conditions, in which the United States has fallen from 1st to 7th since 2008.
The global financial meltdown, which spread outward from the U.S. housing bubble and the Wall Street cowboys who fueled it, obviously degraded America's reputation as a top place to do business. Other nations affected by the financial meltdown, including Ireland, Iceland and Germany, have also faltered in the Milken rankings. In general, much of the developed world earned a well-deserved black eye for the antics that led to the Great Recession.
[READ: How Cyprus (and Russian Gangsters) Could Harm Your 401k]
But negative developments since then have largely overshadowed the strengths of the U.S. economy, such as a transparent legal system and the world's most resilient consumers. Washington, for one thing, has become a global embarrassment, due to the self-inflicted crises that members of Congress keep flapping their arms over. The U.S. tax code is a complicated mess, and different levels of government often pile overlapping layers of regulation onto businesses. Plus, it can be difficult just gaining entry to the United States.
"For a business considering coming to the United States, there are all kinds of attractions," says Keith Savard, a co-author of the Milken study. "But look at how many hoops you have to jump through to start a business here."
If there's any good news, it's that the United States will probably outrank Cyprus when the next version of the Milken index comes out, since the fundamentals of the Cypriot economy are sure to deteriorate. The U.S. economy, meanwhile, does appear to be improving faster than in other parts of the developed world. We're not irrelevant yet.

Some guns you don't see every day
April 11, 2009 by
airgun forum
These are three offerings from FEG in Hungary, sometimes known as Relum, Telly, Grothaus, Neckermann, Precise Minuteman, just to name a few. All three of mine are .177.
The little blonde on the left has no markings whatsoever, other than "Made in Hungary" and the number stamp "8 1946," which may or may not be a date stamp. It has the customary Relum longitudinal grooves on either side of the forestock, the rounded front forks, and the unique concentric screws at the front of the trigger guard. The outer hollow screw mounts the action to the stock, and the inner screw adjusts engagement of the direct-sear trigger, all hallmarks of Relum Breakbarrels. I added the scope rail, and it's currently wearing a Leapers 4X32 crossbow scope. I find the crossbow reticle very handy for this gun.
In the middle is my most recent acquisition, a very unique little sidelever. This one is stamped Neckermann, which I have learned is a German mailorder house that used to sell air rifles. It has the traditional Telly emblem on the stock. The powerplant is a very unique design that involves a sliding transfer port and a very light piston with what appears to be a nylon piston ring. I posted pictures of the innards on the vintage forum.
On the right is what is known as the Relum Supertornado. This one is stamped "Precise Minuteman." It's an underlever taploader with two concentric counterwound springs. I have added a QB79 front sight assembly with a clear disk aperture, and a Crosman 411 peep. It is quite heavy, and while it is a tad buzzy, it has a very stable shot cycle.
There's all sorts of strange stuff out there, and most of it winds up passing through my hands.
I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

Having a single subarch would make compilation easier, but as I said, that isn't really the problem. Most kernel vulnerabilities are not architecture-specific. We are capable of supporting a limited number of versions of the kernel source. Supporting many architectures is not a huge problem if they can all build from the same small set of kernel-source versions. -- - mdz

Chaperonin GroEL Reassembly: An Effect of Protein Ligands and Solvent Composition
AbstractChaperonin GroEL is a complex oligomeric heat shock protein (Hsp60) assisting the correct folding and assembly of other proteins in the cell. An intriguing question is how GroEL folds itself. According to the literature, GroEL reassembly is dependent on chaperonin ligands and solvent composition. Here we demonstrate dependence of GroEL reassembly efficiency on concentrations of the essential factors (Mg2+, ADP, ATP, GroES, ammonium sulfate, NaCl and glycerol). Besides, kinetics of GroEL oligomerization in various conditions was monitored by the light scattering technique and proved to be two-exponential, which suggested accumulation of a certain oligomeric intermediate. This intermediate was resolved as a heptamer by nondenaturing blue electrophoresis of GroEL monomers during their assembly in the presence of both Mg-ATP and co-chaperonin GroES. Presumably, this intermediate heptamer plays a key role in formation of the GroEL tetradecameric particle. The role of co-chaperonin GroES (Hsp10) in GroEL assembly is also discussed. View Full-Text

Not sure if Redcat is *always* free, but today at the Grand Avenue Festival they opened their doors for free. They had a sort of urban exhibition going on today that was pretty cool. People were creating chalk murals outside the property on the sidewalk, and inside there was some very contemporary art complete with graffiti, dumpsters and a vandalized car. See for yourself! =)
All in all, I think Redcat has some pretty interesting rotating exhibitions all the time, perhaps where the downtown young artist scene tends to go.

Sat Nav Technology Tracks Turtles Across Atlantic
Thanks to satellite navigation technology, researchers at a British university have managed to track a female giant leatherback turtle as she migrated from an African breeding colony to feeding grounds in the South America--a dangerous 4,700 mile trek that took her across the Atlantic Ocean.
Scientists from the Center for Ecology and Conservation at the University of Exeter used sat-nav technology to study the travel patterns of these animals, following 25 females along three different migratory routes starting at the world's largest breeding colony in Gabon, Central Africa, they said in a press release.According to the AFP news agency, "One route led to a circular zone in the mid-Atlantic between central Africa and Brazil, and another route went far south, beyond the Cape of Good Hope. A third went straight as an arrow across the Atlantic to the coast of South America," a journey that takes the turtles through waters patrolled by fishermen who could unwittingly snare the creatures.
"Despite extensive research carried out on leatherbacks, no-one has really been sure about the journeys they take in the South Atlantic until now," Dr. Matthew Witt, a marine biologist who participated in the study, said in a statement Tuesday.
"What we've shown is that there are three clear migration routes as they head back to feeding grounds after breeding in Gabon, although the numbers adopting each strategy varied each year," he added. "We don't know what influences that choice yet, but we do know these are truly remarkable journeys."
The study was published in Wednesday's edition of the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B, and according to researcher Dr. Brendan Godley, the results of their work can provide invaluable information for marine conservationists seeking to protect ancient and massive reptiles.
"All of the routes we've identified take the leatherbacks through areas of high risk from fisheries, so there's a very real danger to the Atlantic population," Godley said. "Knowing the routes has also helped us identify at least 11 nations who should be involved in conservation efforts, as well as those with long-distance fishing fleets."
"There's a concern that the turtles we tracked spent a long time on the High Seas, where it's very difficult to implement and manage conservation efforts, but hopefully this research will help inform future efforts to safeguard these fantastic creatures," he added.

Very sexy picture. I hope to get a similar one this expansion.
Very sexy picture. I hope to get a similar one this expansion.
I've been slowly working on this. I gave up until 5.1 when revered gets a boost to rep gained lol
I can tell you miss Shen'dralar and Nat Pagle, but Nat doesn't count as a reputation for the achievement.
Gratz anyways!
I am way too lazy to do dailies
And that is the last few reps i require. Exact amount of reps i need
65 exalteds(66 if reps were account-wide. Got bloodsail exalted on a alt) <3
If i didnt do Relic Hunter. I probably wouldve spent hours doing dailies and dodging gankers
Grats tho(^^_)

Gratz man. Now go and buy all the reputation commendations just to spite people :P
Seriously though gratz, hope they give you a cool title someday like <Name>, The Hero of Many Names
Does Nat pagle and the little panda cook count as rep towards the 70? If I have an alt with exalted with Scryers and main exalted with Aldor will those both count?
Very well done. I'm at 69, but unfortunately I'm stuck. The only few factions left will take an insane amount of time. IE a PvP ones. Not worth it seeing as in the new patch this goes down to a silly 60.
Torque, Guardian of Cenarius
hm im at 65

If they would give acc wide achis I'd have 60++ i think... being a altwhore I got all the cata/vanilla ones exalted on my rogue (with the insane creteria on my warlock)
TBC ones on rogue, WOLK ones on hunter, cata ones on rogue and mop ones on warlock.
Edit: Is it abnormal to have justicar done on 2 characters? Got it halfway done on my lock and hunter too ^^
impressive & gz! quick question, how do you get the tillers friends to fully 1000 exalted? I cant seem to get there, i have them on half or so, and cant turn more items or food in?
Hated with Bloodsail Buccaneers and neutral with Shen'dralar, I'm disappoint.
What about Syndicate?!

New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg has transformed from an elected official into Superman. He limited commercial sale of soda and now he's attempting to prevent out-of-wedlock pregnancies. Bloomberg enlisted the state's Human Resources Administration to plaster advertisements in bus shelters and subway stations. The provocative ads, which feature distressed children speaking about their plight to their parent, are raising alarm among feminists and family advocates.
We know the statistics. More than 54,000 children were born out-of-wedlock in New York City in 2010 and this number continues to increase.
We also realize children raised in single-parents are considered "disadvantaged" based on studies and statistics. Bloomberg even refused to participate in a similar campaign two years ago, based on the racial implications of launching such a campaign.
He should've followed his first mind. Targeting single mothers without considering external factors such as what constitutes wedlock, the non-traditional families excluded from this definition, and the concept of villages raising children instead of two parents is both problematic and a method of shaming. Single mothers face enough societal stigmas about their parenting abilities without the government intervening.
The advertisements aren't the worst of it though. Miriam Perez, a writer at RH Reality Check followed the instructions listed at the bottom of the advertisement. She texted "NOTNOW" to 877877 and was prompted to select a character (Louis or Anaya). It was downhill from there. The text messages sent unrealistic scenarios, designed to purport the unsuspected consequences of unwed pregnancies. All Bloomberg and his troop have accomplished is forcing heteronormative family values on women without offering solutions for preventing unexpected pregnancies.
Shame is not a prevention tactic. Education is. Economic mobility is. Community resources, like Planned Parenthood, are helpful in educating future mothers and fathers about the potential consequences of teenage pregnancy. Instead of shaming women, Bloomberg should offer jobs and community programs instead of backward advertisements.

U.S. Senator Roy Blunt (Mo.) issued the following statement today regarding the ongoing questions surrounding the Obama Administration's use of drone strikes against U.S. citizens, as well as his opposition to John Brennan as the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA):
"Senator Paul is right: the Obama Administration should answer these very legitimate questions about the use of drones against American citizens. Two years ago as a member of the Intelligence Committee, I raised my concerns about the use of drones, and I applaud Senator Paul for highlighting this important issue on the floor yesterday. I still have very serious concerns about the Obama Administration's use of drones against U.S. citizens, and I will not support John Brennan's nomination for CIA Director."

Terri was in touch with me all the way through the process, asking for my preferences, desires and visions. We shared pinterest boards, and Terri made so many unique recommendations for our choices that really personalized everything about our ceremony flowers. I didn't even have to wear perfume…my bouquet showered me in the most lovely fragrances imaginable. Terri thought of everything. She was so good about making sure every single person who played a role in the wedding was recognized with a floral creation. She created floral jewelry our of pearls for our mothers and it just took their corsages to another level. Everyone was raving about the special touches.

Jimmy Salter was thrust into an unthinkable situation last season, taking over as West Orange-Stark's quarterback after the death of Reggie Garrett.
But he responded by earning the District 21-3A co-Newcomer of the Year award and helping WO-S reach the area round of the Class 3A Division II playoffs.
Now with an offseason to prepare to be the starter, WO-S coach Cornel Thompson expects even more out of the junior quarterback.
Thompson believes the experience of last season and the Mustangs' switch from the spread offense to the multiple I formation will allow the Salter to "flourish."
"He can really show his talents more in this offense than maybe the other offense," Thompson said. "We've designed some things for him."
One of those talents is Salter's running ability, which is what he said he likes best about the change to the multiple I.
"I get to sit back and relax more in the I formation, and that helps open up stuff for me," he said. "Basically, we're pouding, pounding, pounding, and then it opens up plays."
Thompson also said he's been impressed with the way Salter has improved his work habits and his leadership skills during the offseason.
"He's a quiet leader," Thompson said. "He's not a real vocal guy, but when he steps in the huddle and says, 'Now!' they listen. They've got confidence in Jimmy, as I do and all the coaches do. He'll be fine."

The New York State Police has tentatively identified the woman found in James Baird State Park as 22-year-old Jasmine Maxine Nunez.
The body was found in the woods.
A motorist driving by saw something burning and called 911 to report a brush fire, but it wasn't.
Police believe the suspect's intention was to burn the body beyond recognition, but a tattoo remained on the victim's back, helping investigators tentatively identify her.
Though Baird State Park is a sprawling 490 acres, police say the suspect acted hastily and dumped the body on the main access road less than a mile from the Taconic State Parkway.
Nunez's family reported her missing to the NYPD this weekend.
Investigators are now working to piece together what happened in the hours before her death.
Nunez was last seen with her live-in boyfriend, 26-year-old Andres Ceballos.
Virginia police say they attempted to stop a car matching Ceballos' vehicle on Route 58 heading west towards Emporia, VA on Monday, June 20.
A chase ensued, and a man tentatively identified as Ceballos fled the vehicle on foot and then shot and killed himself.
Police are working to positively identify both bodies.


text: Home > Lifestyle Zodiac signs linked to illnesses: astrologer ABS-CBN News Posted at Oct 28 2012 08:23 PM | Updated as of Oct 29 2012 07:38 PM Share Save Facebook Twitter GPlus LinkedIn MANILA, Philippines – Did you know that one's zodiac sign may be linked to a disease which one is prone to have? This is according to veteran astrologer Zenaida Seva. In an interview with radio dzMM on Sunday, Seva said that based on one's astrological sign, there are diseases which a person may be more vulnerable to. "Bawat birthday ay may kanya-kanyang characteristic, quality. Mayroong part ng body na associated with their zodiac sign," Seva explained, saying astrological signs should at least make a person more vigilant on what to avoid. Here are the illnesses supposedly related to Zodiac signs according to Seva: Aries The Aries sign is associated with parts of the body above the neck. Thus, Seva said Arians are more prone to suffering headaches, head injuries or even toothaches. Seva added that Arians are quick in losing their temper. Gemini Gemini is associated with a person's lungs, fingers and anything related to hearing. As such Seva said those born under this sign should not smoke or should avoid second-hand smoke or pollution. Taurus Like Aries, Seva said the Taurus sign is also associated with a person's neck. Thus Taureans should be cautious against diseases which normally occur in one's neck or throat. Seva added that Taureans are most likely to experience choking. Cancer Seva said this sign is associated with the upper part of the body. "Sila ang mas prone sa breast cancer. Kaya Cancerians, basically nanay, how do you nurture babies? Basically by breastfeeding. Puwedeng mas sensitive sila and mas prone to breast cancer. So 'yung mga sinasabi ng doktor about breast cancer, kailangan mag-ingat sila," Seva explained. Leo People born under the Leo sign are more vulnerable to heart illnesses or anything related to the circulatory system. "For Leo, pangalagaan ang kanilang puso. Mas sensitive sila sa mga sinasabing bad for the heart like cholesterol, fatty food. Mas maingat sila dapat sa mga bagay na ganyan," Seva said. Virgo Virgo rules a person's stomach. Thus people under this sign must be more cautious in avoiding diseases like ulcer. Libra Librans should avoid eating salty food since the sign rules a person's kidney. Seva said Librans also have a sweet tooth, making them prone to developing diabetes. Scorpio The Scorpio sign rules a person's reproductive organs. "They have to be careful of indiscriminate relationships but also hindi rin nila dapat itago ang kanilang galit. Kapag nagalit, nagtatanim eh usually malalim na malalim ang kanilang feelings. Puwedeng mayroon siyang nararamdaman pero hindi niya ipapakita," Seva said. Sagittarius The Sagittarius sign is associated with a person's liver, hips and thighs. Seva said Sagittarians should be constantly reminded about drinking moderately. Capricorn The Capricorn sign is associated with a person's knees and bones. Those born under this sign are prone to injuries involving these body parts. Aquarius While Aquarians are also linked to illnesses involving blood circulation, Seva said those born under this this sign are also likely to have weak ankles. Pisces Lastly, Pisceans need to be more alert against possible foot injuries. "Lahat ng klaseng injuries sa paa. Kaya kapag 'yung moon nasa Pisces, sabi ko sa kliyente ko huwag papa-pedicure kasi baka ma-injure," Seva said.

Truth be told, I am very wary when a game provides companions. If the writing for that NPC is not up to par, I turn off very quickly. I know that the gameplay role of these guys is to hit things and carry excess items - but I don't like being reminded of that by poor writing and immersion. Then there are the NPCs that just turn out to be very irritating, be it their immersion breaking whining/personality disorder or ridiculous appearance - see Dragon Age 2, that utter, irredeemable abomination.
Now I do not claim to be any kind of guru on the subject. I simply enjoy making modules that I would want to play and then hope others enjoy the experience too. If it's not Adam's cup of tea, there's plenty more free gaming to be had out there. I find my tastes to be rather straightforward. I want companions to perform a valued role - they can do something that someone else can't, or at least not nearly as well. That their personality, whilst displaying differences, does not grossly contradict others in the party to the point that they are standing in the way of things and taking over. I like a party to actually be a team and work as such when needed. Even if it is simply chiming in with warnings, advice and subtle hints. The time spent together can also be a good factor in just how helpful companions become.
Indanthrine Prince (NWN2) dipped it's toes in some of these topics, but not very far. I suppose my thoughts and opinions have matured over time, so much still remains to be seen. The companions in IP certainly had moments were they offered insight, the opportunity to explore alternative tactics and on some occasions, choices, should the player be inclined to trust them. But admittedly, these features were generally limited. With the upcoming campaign, plans are already afoot to ramp this up.
First off, the party restrictions are going to become more relaxed. Meaning, at certain points (do not read as rarely, this will assume a large part of the campaign) you will be able to choose which Companions accompany you. Assuming of course that you have met them and that they are not unavailable for any reason. Couple this with some new companions in classes we haven't covered yet and you will be able to gather a party suitable for anything. The new companions will include other races. At this time, Act 1 of the new campaign will continue with the restricted party make-up of IP, whilst Acts 2 and 3 will be (mostly) fully down to the players selections.
In a further relaxing of restrictions, it will be possible to multi-class your companions from amongst a prescribed range of classes. It should add a nice personal touch to your companions and strengthen their specific roles in the party or allow a weakness in the party to be plugged. With the upper level estimate of the campaign to be around level 20, there is plenty of room for building your companions into exactly what you want them to be.
|Crispin can branch out into a Weapon Master
|Jamot can specialise further as an Assassin, making him extremely useful on one particular level.
One final thing that is helping to make your party feel more like a team of comrades than ill-fitting merchandise mannequins is another relatively simple step. An influence system is being worked up. Rather than using it to engineer pixelated titillation through "romances", it will be used to influence decision-making, certain outcomes and the level of spoken insight (and possibly bonuses) provided by a companion. Jamot will be using this system in Act 1, so he is currently the test subject before I decide whether or not this is worth continuing with. We also have some companion personal quests planned to aid in player-to-companion immersion. We don't intend to turn these into major quests, nor do we wish to make them into the sort of quests that can make or break your primary quest, ala Mass Effect 2. These quests will also come coupled with increased general conversation that you can have with your companions when compared with IP.
I think that'll do for this entry. I'm sure I'll have more stuff to say later. To sum it all up, the party for me, in this series, should have some real camaraderie about it. It should make you smile, think differently, laugh and perhaps most importantly, remember!
|One last shot. The party gathers in a sewer area during the events of Act 1.

September 2007
A warm welcome to all of you.
Participate to win $500.00
New Jersey municipalities, treatment facilities and community groups compete for $500 in the Battle of the Banners, reflecting the 2007 Recovery Month theme: Saving Lives, Saving Dollars.
Other Activities:
Live Music* Spoken-Word Performance* Interactive Drumming* Free T-Shirts to the first 2007 attendees* Battle of the Banners*
Addiction, it is often said, knows no boundaries. It follows then, that recovery, too, is borderless. That will be the case with the upcoming Rally for Recovery , slated for September 15, in Jersey City's Liberty State Park, which will not only reach across the Hudson River to New York but extend across the country. The rally is anticipated to be the national hub of approximately 50 recovery celebrations taking place nationwide on the same day, with more than 200 scheduled throughout September. The day long rally is the fruit of a partnership of organizations including Friends of Addiction Recovery-New Jersey, Faces and Voices of Recovery, and several New York groups, among others.
The theme for the Rally is "Join the Voices of Recovery: Saving Lives, Saving Dollars," which is the focus of September's Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Adminstration-sponsored Alcohol and Drug Addiction Recovery Month.
The expanded scope of the event is not only a matter of geography. The Rally will celebrate people in recovery, but it will also provide an advocacy platform to end the various forms of discrimination facing addicted and recovering individuals. This year, advocacy will, among other things, focus on helping more people gain access to appropriate treatment for a drug or alcohol problem.
Among the featured speakers will be actor Tommy Ford and David Wellstone, son of the late Senator Paul Wellstone. The keynote will be given by Ford, an actor, playwright and director, best known for playing "Tommy" on the show "Martin" and for portraying Lieutenant Malcolm Barker on the drama, "New York Undercover."
Wellstone, whose father is the namesake of federal health insurance party legislation, is the founder of Wellstone Action. The organization advocates for just treatment of addicted and mentally ill people, which has become the late senator's legislative legacy.
Ford said he considers the shared experience of the "Rally to be of paramount importance! It celebrates healing; closure; and accomplishment. You'd be surprised how seldom people go through life without hearing the words, "You're doing an awesome job!" "I've got your back;" or "I'm so very proud of you!"
This rally represents those encouraging and comforting sentiments. The recovery process is often a cold, lonely and humbling transition. It's a comfort to be in a room filled with people who share a common experience. I believe this assembly is confirmation to every one in attendance that our efforts are worthwhile!"
Of his joining in the celebration at Liberty State Park, Wellstone said,"I'm proud to participate in Rally for Recovery because Congress needs to act this year to pass the Paul Wellstone Mental Health and Addiction Equity Act, named after my father. He believed and I believe that people must organize and speak out to end insurance discrimination." The Rally will give individuals in recovery the opportunity to present a unified front on the issue of equity in health insurance coverage for addicted and mentally ill citizens, as well as other discriminatory practices confronting them.
The Rally will aim to galvanize people in treatment and recovery,
making them aware of the laws that exist to prevent discrimination toward addiction. The American Disabilities and New Jersey's Law against discrimination both contain provisions protecting addicted and recovering individuals. The National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence -New Jersey recently issued a "Know Your Rights' primer on the ADA and the LAD that will be distributed at the Rally. The push for civic engagement at the Rally will include voter registration.
I would like to encourage all of you living in the area to take the time and join in the Rally. Celebrate Recovery!

NCADD-NJ Issues Guide on Rights and Addiction
The National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence -New Jersey has released a guide outlining the rights of individuals who are in recovery from addiction. The document is designed to help people in recovery gain access to housing, employment,education and health care. It reviews provisions regarding alcohol and drug use in the Americans with Disabilities Act and the New Jersey's Law Against Discrimination. The rights brochure was among the recommendations made by a state panel of legal and civil rights experts that NCADD-NJ convened to help overcome stigma toward addicted and recovering citizens.
The brochure provides an overview of the rights, responsibilities and remedies for people in recovery from addiction and their loved ones. It seeks to overcome the discrimination and stigma that confronts many residents who have had a problem with alcohol or drugs and in recovery after ending their alcohol or drug use find themselves denied opportunities for employment, housing, education, among other areas. The document can be viewed online at: http://www.ncaddnj.org/pdf/KnowRightsFINAL.pdf hardcopies can be ordered by calling 609-477-7015.
In its discussion of the legal protections afforded people in recovery, the document notes that New Jersey's Law Against Discrimination offers the first, and in many cases the best, recourse. In recognizing addiction as a disability, it covers discrimination in employment, housing, public accomodations and some business transactions. The guide also covers the conditions and restrictions that pertain to the protection for citizens addicted to alcohol or drugs.

Why is it always so complicated? Attention
Maryland Residents!!! Check out what is happening with Suboxone?
Red Tape, Doctors Say, Cuts Buprenorphine Prescriptions
Faced with Medicaid's low payments and bureaucratic red tape, some Maryland doctors are reluctant to prescribe buprenorphine for heroin addicts, even though the drug has been promoted as a potential magic bullet in the war against addiction, according to a survey set for release today.
The survey, commissioned by the Center for a Healthy Maryland Incorporated, found that doctors were not always sufficiently reimbursed for their time and services and that there were other "hassles," including medication preauthorization, a process that in some cases can take 48 hours, and varying and confusing protocols among Medicaid providers.
The report comes as state officials are deciding how to spend an extra $3 million earmarked for buprenorphine treatment in the budget year that starts July 1.
Medicaid is a state-run program that uses federal and state money to pay medical bills for the poor and disabled. In Maryland, the program is run through seven managed-care organizations that contract with a network of health care providers.
Buprenorphine advocates want Medicaid officials to quickly fix the red tape and payment problems so the $3 million can be used to help uninsured addicts and others who want treatment but do not qualify for Medicaid.
"One of the biggest barriers to prescribing buprenorphine is dealing with the insurance companies," said Dr. Christopher Welsh, a psychiatrist and assistant professor at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in Baltimore. Welsh uses the drug to treat patients at the university's hospital. Some come from hundreds of miles away to get a prescription, only to have their treatment thwarted by red tape.
"A few hours later, you'll get a call, and the patient will tell you that the pharmacy said the prescription wasn't authorized," said Welsh, who participated in the survey.
He added that a physician who intervenes to help the patient is often "passed from voice mail to voice mail" by the health care provider, and the experience "can be very time - and labor -intensive."
Of the seventeen doctors from across the state who participated in the survey, some said they have been so frustrated by the system that they have paid for the drug themselves.
Only 25 percent of those surveyed said they were willing to prescribe buprenorphine for a variety of reasons. Some of the reasons given for not prescribing the drug included negative attitudes about drug addiction and a lack of experience regarding care of addicted patients. Some managed-care organizations don't view drug addiction as a long-term disease, according to doctors.
"It is a disorganized and chaotic system according to physicians," said Dr. Robert Schwartz, director of drug addiction treatment programs at the Open Society Institute - Baltimore, which provided grant money to pay for the survey.
As a result of the study, doctors and representatives of managed-care organizations have agreed to work together to improve addiction treatment opportunities for residents, including those in rural parts of the state where few doctors have the necessary certification to prescribe buprenorphine. State officials, who only recently received the survey, have also said they will cooperate.
"We have a real chance here to work together to deal with the concerns doctors have and the barriers they have told us about," said Dr. Meena R. Abraham, executive director of the Center for a Healthy Maryland, an affiliate of the Maryland State Medical Society.
Susan Tucker, executive director of the Office of Health Services for the Maryland Medicaid Program, said she plans to discuss the survey's findings tonight at a forum scheduled by the medical society. She said some doctors are hampered by federal rules regulating the use of buprenorphine and a lack of education about drug treatment.
"It is clear that it is more than insurance," said Tucker. "Some doctors don't feel comfortable providing counseling for patients; some don't feel they have the background."
The pill form of buprenorphine was approved by the Federal Drug Administration for use in the treatment of opioid addictions in 2002. Before that, it was used in a liquid form in the operating room to help with pain. Doctors must go through a certification program to prescribe the drug and initially are allowed to give it to only 30 patients. After a year, they can treat up to 100 patients.
Recently, Baltimore health officials have advocated the use of buprenorphine, which helps relieve withdrawal symptoms, as an alternative to methadone, a synthetic opiate that is addictive and requires close supervision.
Doctors must take a short class to receive a certificate to prescribe buprenorphine, and the city has launched a program recently to help cover the costs of such coursework. Ninety-one doctors have signed up for the training, and nearly 50 have completed it, according to Dr. Joshua M. Sharfstein, the city health commissioner.
Sharfstein said that he has not heard complaints from doctors who work with the city to treat drug addicts, in large part because the city runs interference between physicians and managed-care organizations. Sharfstein said it also helps that most buprenorphine patients start off in buprenorphine-oriented treatment programs. By the time they phase out to care with a private doctor, their treatment has been approved by Medicaid providers.
"We are not expecting doctors to go out on their own," said Sharfstein, who added, however, that the system should work for every doctor, not just those dealing with patients in the public health sector. "It is not an either/or situation. It needs to work for everyone."

Levin Amendment Expands Access to 'Miracle Drug' to Treat Heroin Addiction
WASHINGTON, Dec. 29 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Today, the President signed into law legislation authored by Senators Carl Levin, D-Mich. and Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, that more than triples the number of patients that qualified physicians are permitted to treat with buprenorphine, a medication that has proven successful in combating heroin addiction.
"The Drug Addiction Treatment Act (DATA) of 2000 made a dramatic change in the way America fights heroin addiction. Blocking the craving for heroin has now been accomplished for tens of thousands of patients who likely never would have sought treatment in highly restricted, centralized methadone programs," Levin said. "Due to the great success of buprenorphine treatment, however, many patients have not been able to begin treatment because of the current limit of 30 patients that each physician can treat.
With the signing of this bill, physicians will be permitted to treat up to 100 patients with buprenorphine, reducing the current waiting lists for treatment." DATA, which was also sponsored by Levin and Hatch, made it legal for physicians to prescribe and dispense buprenorphine in their private offices pending FDA approval, which came in 2002.
This law created an entirely new treatment modality for millions of Americans who suffer from dependence on opioids, which include heroin, morphine, and some prescription painkillers. Prior to passage of this law, medical treatment for opioid addiction and dependence was restricted to centralized clinics.
"Bup has been hailed as a 'miracle drug' by medical professionals and addicts alike, and it has been successful in helping thousands of addicts get off -- and stay off -- heroin," Levin continued. "This common-sense fix allows many more Americans to rehabilitate their lives with bup."
At a Senate symposium hosted by Levin and Hatch in August 2006, patients testified to the lifesaving potential of bup. A college student from Boston, who had been addicted to heroin and in and out of methadone treatment unsuccessfully ten times, said that bup helped her to feel "normal for the first time in three and a half years." A Korean War veteran testified that bup "changed my life like night and day."
Experts and patients at the symposium also described how the patient restrictions have limited access to buprenorphine. The Levin amendment increases the patient limit to 100, correcting that unintended restriction.

Sorrentino said that Glass-Steagall "has no merit in our current financial environment," and that reinstating the law could put the U.S. at a competitive disadvantage, forcing the largest American companies to seek financial services from larger, foreign banks that would be better positioned to meet their needs. He added that lawmakers should instead reshape the current regulatory environment to be workable for banks of all sizes.
He wrote:
At this time, our focus should not be on resurrecting another bill from the annals of history, but on analyzing the costs and benefits of our current regulations and figuring out what kind of modern financial system we want to have relative to other global institutions.
Sorrentino further pointed out that banks today are holding more capital and liquidity than ever before, and that many of the largest banks have already scaled down to meet regulatory requirements under Dodd-Frank and Basel III. With this in mind, Congress should be looking ahead to enact measures to support economic growth, not back to antiquated legislation, he concluded. "At the end of the day, banks are here to support the U.S. economy, not to serve as its punching bag. People often want to divorce banking from the economic progress that's going on, when in reality, they are very much related. Banks provide enormous tailwinds to the economy when they are able to do what they do best."

The New York Assembly has passed a bill that would create a pathway for the Montaukett Indian Nation to become a state-recognized tribe.
Newsday says versions of the bill have been introduced in the state Legislature for years. It passed the Assembly by a 98-5 vote on Thursday.
If the bill also passes in the Senate, it would still require Gov. Andrew Cuomo's signature.
Chief Robert Pharaoh says the tribe has about 1,500 members, many of them on Long Island.
If successful, the Montauketts would join Long Island tribes such as the Unkechaug and Shinnecock nations in getting state recognition.
Pharaoh says the Montauketts hope to re-establish themselves, preserve their culture and build a museum with their own funding.

WASHINGTON — The FBI arrested a suburban Chicago man Wednesday and charged him with secretly collecting information on individuals in the United States who opposed Saddam Hussein's Iraqi government.
The man, Khaled Abdel-Latif Dumeisi, illegally acted as an unregistered agent for the former government of Iraq, the government contends. He allegedly produced fake press identification cards for Iraqi officials, covertly obtained telephone records of a former Iraqi opposition leader and received training in Iraq from the Iraqi Intelligence Service.

L et me start by saying I do not condone human trafficking.
If, however, you decide to get involved in that seedy underworld in the near future - the economy does stink right now, after all - I offer you this advice: If you kidnap a young lady, and speak to her oddly calm father on the phone moments after you have "Taken" her ... and if he tells you over the phone that he's had a "long career" that has honed certain "skills" that make him a nightmare for people like you, that he "will find you," and that he "will kill you," take him at his word.
A lot of ifs, I know. And of course the whole idea is ridiculous ,as it hypothetically puts you in the shoes of a ruthless Albanian, at least if you're going with the script by Luc Besson and Robert Mark Kamen. The ifs, as well as the word "ridiculous," are appropriate when talking about "Taken," though. The film is packed with convenient ifs that work out nicely for our hero, Bryan Mills (Liam Neeson). In between the ifs working our perfectly for Bryan, we see him sprinting through the streets of Paris with speed sufficient enough to keep up with souped-up sports cars, maiming or killing human beings at a breakneck pace, and avoiding capture by either the bad guys or the police.
Yet, if you allow him to, Liam Neeson will take you on quite the 90-minute ride. Make no mistake about it: Neeson is the only reason "Taken" works at all. The character of Bryan Mills is not someone we haven't seen countless times before. Mills is a retired CIA operative trying like hell to rekindle some sort of relationship with his teenage daughter, Kim (Maggie Grace). His marriage to Kim's mom (Famke Janssen) long ago failed, thanks to the time-consuming career. He is a man, as we see early on and then in just about every frame to the end, that hardly needs a weapon to take down bad guys in mere seconds. Bryan Mills is not all that interesting, truth be told. Somehow, though, Neeson makes him seem that way.
Neeson turns Bryan into a forgetful but good-natured-enough friend when he's barbequing with his CIA pals, a short-fused ex-husband when he is around Janssen, a loving but completely clueless father, and of course a lethal killing machine once his daughter is taken. Neeson is effective enough that all of the fluff director Pierre Morel asks us to swallow starts to seem less silly. Bryan sprinting around Paris at nighttime, keeping up with a speeding Audi? Sure, why not. Bryan escaping handcuffs and strangulation thanks to a loose pipe the bad guys have hooked him to? Makes sense.
I knew for sure how good Neeson was when Bryan shot an innocent lady in the arm - a friend, no less - without blinking in order to intimidate her husband. His reasons are valid enough for him to shoot innocent acquaintances: Time running out, evil Albanians selling his virgin daughter to fat sheiks, etc. Still, it'd be like if you stabbed the checkout clerk at the grocery store because his boss wouldn't tell you when the next shipment of your favorite apples was coming in. It's a bit much. Yet, when Bryan does it in "Taken," I only had a brief "What the hell?" moment.
Then I was right back on board.
Yes, Neeson is excellent. And without him, "Taken" would be a bad piece of fluff.
With him, it is a very enjoyable piece of fantastic fluff.

From Bob
Megan and Avery's two-year-old birthday party was a great success. I may be biased, but these are the two cutest two-year-olds I know. Sharon and Jenny did a great job preparing for the party, and it was good to see so many family members. The girls had all of their grandparents there. That means a lot to me because I don't remember any of my grandparents. I find great comfort in knowing all of my grandchildren have loving grandparents who will always love and support them. Megan and Avery were also surrounded by brothers, cousins, uncles, aunts, and friends.
Unfortunately, while sitting in my wheelchair at the party, I twisted my back and it went into spasm. Monday, at the conclusion of dialysis, I was unable to get into my wheelchair due to the pain in my back. The nurses had me wait several minutes before I finally made it to the wheelchair. When they pushed me into the reception room, Patra said I looked terrible - no color in my face and my shirt was wet from sweat. We eventually were able to get me loaded in the car.
I had an x-ray yesterday of my low back and we are making an appointment with a pain management doctor.
This is the 150th post for this blog since January, 2010. I can't believe it. Moffitt Cancer Center recommended its bone marrow transplant patients keep a blog to update family and friends. I had never done anything like it before. I figured I would write a few blog posts while in the hospital. I honestly thought my "nasty little disease" would be in remission once I finished the bone marrow transplant and there would be nothing further to write about.
Boy was I wrong on the whole "remission" thing.
I would have never believed what has occurred during the past two years. Patra and I often talk about our "journey" and the twists and turns it has taken. This was not our plan for these years. I could not have made it without her. While we would not have chosen to walk through these "tall weeds," we know that God is in control and that He will never leave nor forsake us. It is in some of the darkest moments that I most feel God's love and mercy.
The blog has worked in keeping people informed. Surprisingly, writing the blog has been therapeutic for me. I think about the events from a different perspective. It turned into a "family affair" where Jenny, Emily, Adam and Patra have all been called upon to assist. I am especially appreciative of them taking charge during those times I was unable.
I hope my grandchildren will read the blog someday and feel like they know their grandfather a little better. I have tried to be honest and transparent in my writings so they will know the "real me."
One of the greatest blessings of the blog is the number of people in my life that it has allowed me to re-connect with. Friends from childhood in Miami, friends from Elementary school, Junior High School, High School, College and Law School, friends from Youth Group at church, lawyers and staff I have worked with over the years, friends from church and the children's schools.
Dear God: Thank you for always being there. You have never let me down. Help me to always be faithful to you. Father, help me to be the husband, father, grandfather and friend that I should be. In Jesus' name, Amen.
Until next Friday. God willing.

The Top Header of each section shows the search engine in which your rankings are appearing (Google, Yahoo, Bing, Alta Vista, AOL, ASK etc.)
The column on the left titled: "Search Phrase," shows the phrases used for this ranking. These are phrases online searchers will type into a search engine when looking for the solutions and answers your business or Practice offers.
Don't let the geo-targeted "extensions" confuse you. These are modifiers to the basic keyword phrase and are variations of the city, state and zip code we are targeting for you. Even though it makes the phrase seem odd, every single word in the overall phrase works independently of the rest of the phrase - and collectively as well. In other words, they do not detract from the basic keyword or keyword phrase - they enhance the keyword or keyword phrase and give the overall phrase more power to attract the best, most targeted prospects.
The next column is titled "Position." This shows the position of the ranking on the search engine results page, in the geo-targeted area where the phrase is targeted. For example, if the number in that column is "1", that means that ranking is the FIRST listing shown on that search engine results page if someone were to enter that "search phrase" into a search engine in that geo-targeted area.
If the number in that column is "3", that means that ranking is the THIRD listing shown on that search engine results page if someone were to enter that "search phrase" into a search engine in that geo-targeted area.
The third column titled "URL" shows the actual website "address" to which searchers will be sent if they were to click on the ranked position shown in the search engine results.NOTE: Sometimes the third column will show "Full Page Advertising" instead of your actual URL (website address). This is a VERY IMPORTANT part of our proprietary system that creates ADDITIONAL sites that will direct the visitor to YOUR website from many different "portals" in our vast network. This system helps to improve ALL your ranked positions through the use of a unique linking strategy. The end result – potentially MORE traffic (prospective clients, patients or customers) to your website!
Here is a list of the order in which phrases normally get ranked in the search engines.
1. Long tail phrases get ranked first in the geo-targeted areas they are created for. (Long tail phrases are phrases with 4 or more words in them)
2. As your site and the network we build around it becomes more of an authority site, then the long tail phrases get ranked with every single word in the overall phrase working independently of the rest of the phrase. This will cause the phrase to show up in the geo-targeted area with and without the city, state, or zip listed in the phrase. And over time, the phrase will start getting top rankings in more and more geo-targeted areas.
3. Once the search engines recognize your site to be stronger then your competitors, then the short tail phrases will start getting the rankings.
All these things happen with time.
The easiest way to know how to read this report is to know how this report is generated in the first place.
When we gather information from the search engines to see if a phrase is on page one of the search engines, what we do is search from the geo-targeted area where that phrase is supposed to be ranked. We do this from what are called IP addresses throughout the world.
If a phrase shows up on page one in the search engines in the geo-targeted area where it is supposed to show up, then it displays on your report.
So if a phrase shows up in the #8 position on your report and when you look in the search engines, you see it in the #3 position, that doesn't mean there is anything wrong. It simply means in your area, the phrase is currently in the #3 position, and in the geo-targeted area, it was in the #8 position when this report was generated.
And if a phrase was just recognized by the search engines in the geo-targeted area it was intended for, it may not even show up in your geo-targeted area at the time this report was generated. This is simply a temporary situation that resolves itself in time.
Again, to repeat, over time all the rankings become more and more consistent in the geo-targeted areas you requested when you first started your campaign.
We hope this information helps you have a clear understanding on how to read this report.
And always keep in mind that if anything is a little confusing for you and you don't understand the material we are covering here, please feel free to contact us at any time. As you know, we're always here for you to make sure all your questions are answered, and that you are taken care of properly.

It might seem like Mark Whitman is trying to bury a ghost.
What he's really doing is finding a way to make peace.
Whitman's fascination with Juneau pioneer Chew Chung Thui, also known as China Joe, started in a bar.
Well, really it started back in childhood, with a jar his mother took to be made into an electric lamp.
It was a clay jar that belonged to a Chinese woman who worked as a cook for Whitman's great-aunt in California in the late 1800s. It was sealed and made of clay. His mother wanted to make a lamp base out of it, so she took it and had it drilled. But on their way out of the shop, Whitman remembers that a man ran after his mother to tell her it was a funerary jar.
"I grew up knowing the lamp in the study had a dead Chinese man inside," Whitman said. "I always imagined talking with him, imagined he would say, 'Just send me home. Send me back.'"
Years later, sitting in the former Billiken bar on Douglas Island in 1979, Whitman made a connection between his childhood memory and a photograph on the wall. China Joe, the man in the picture, was grinning at him.
"Maybe I'd had a drink or two and saw that expression on his face," Whitman said. "Something clicked in my mind; I remembered the man in the jar."
And so began a long study of China Joe's life. He became the only Chinese left in Juneau in 1887, after a group of miners rounded up every other person from China in the area and sent them down the channel in two boats.
How Joe remained - and why - will be the focus of a presentation by Whitman at 10 a.m. Saturday at the downtown Juneau-Douglas City Museum.
Many locals already know that China Joe was the city's first baker. He is said to have been generous and kind in the way that has an old man passing out sweets to children.
But for Whitman, China Joe is not just a historic figure. He has come to be a mentor that describes to Whitman how to live well in a small, remote community.
China Joe lived in Juneau for 36 years. He never left the city, and in fact, hardly ever left a few-block radius downtown where he owned a log cabin and ran the bakery.
"To find the ability to live within such a tight circle and do it with such dignity and balance and with such generosity is remarkable," Whitman said. "Imagine not getting out in 36 years."
China Joe never got out. He is buried in the Evergreen Cemetery, and while Whitman visits his grave once a year, the fact he's still here could be an issue. That's where Whitman is making his peace, and it involves Saturday's presentation.
Traditional Chinese beliefs say that if one is not properly buried and honored at death, there's a risk of hauntings by a restless ghost. Whitman believes that Joe wished to be interred in China. He found papers indicating that Joe made arrangements for that.
Through his research and sharing Joe's story - something he calls a "lifting up of the light" - Whitman thinks perhaps he can provide a kind of veneration for one of the city's pioneers.
"Sometimes I feel like living in Juneau is like being in Italy," Whitman said. "Three stories down, below the Catholic Church is an Etruscan temple. Right where the city museum stands now, people I talk about Saturday died on that property. Layer over layer, like sedimentary rock, history has happened.
"But unless someone remembers, it will be buried and it will be forgotten," he said.
Saturday's free event at the museum is a fundraiser for the Southeast Alaska Food Bank. Since China Joe was known for providing food during tough times in Juneau, event organizers thought the nonprofit a fitting recipient, museum volunteer Connie Munro said.
Munro said people of Chinese descent are expected to attend Saturday's presentation. Tea and Chinese pastries will be served, and guests will be entertained by a quartet of high school-aged musicians from the Juneau String Ensembles. Musicians Lindsay Clark, Pauline Zheng, Denali Wentz and Daniel Piorkowski have all visited China to perform.

In Calculus class, it was often hard to resist distractions. I'd taught those kids for four years, and there was too much fondness built up between us. We swapped movie suggestions, debated Beatles albums. I'm surprised we got anything done.
But one day's digression stayed surprisingly on-topic. (Well, at least it had to do with math.) The students got curious about repeating decimals.
Adrian led a pack of disbelievers in the claim that 0.999… = 1. (By 0.999…, I mean the decimal number in which the 9's go on forever and ever.) "You're crazy," Adrian said. "You've lost your grip on reality, Orlin. Snap out of it."
With my sanity under challenge (for neither the first nor the last time), I pushed back by offering the standard proof of the fact: Continue reading

Mr. Dorsey had some fun last week. With the record-setting heat and beautiful blue skies experiences here in the Seattle area, he found himself a change of venue. He sent a brief message with the following pictures:
It is too beautiful a day to be in the office so I am WFO today. (Working from Outside)
If you need to reach me you can call me on my cell at 425-749-1086 or just "step out" to my office.
Anyone is welcome to join me for a fun work environment.
Gotta go. The sunshine and breeze are calling me.
A few minutes later, Jason found himself with a friend (albeit less productive than Mr. Dorsey, who was actually working).
