What You'll Get
Wills help people pass on prized possessions to trusted confidants so that their motorcycle doesn't end up in the junkyard and their diary doesn't end up projected onto the moon. Ensure your belongings end up where they should with this Groupon.
$26 for a Create-Your-Own Custom Will Package ($64.41 Value)
The Will-O-Matic Wizard is an online platform that guides users through the process of customizing their last will and testament, aided by a video tutorial and two written guides. After looking at the downfalls of other available will kits, lawyer Michael Carabash specifically designed the Will-O-Matic software to adapt to the nuances of provincial laws and leverage precise language. As clients click through, the program offers helpful information on each option, giving them the chance to name legal representatives for any minor children, add their own clauses, and otherwise custom-tailor the document.
Once finished, the will is available in PDF format on Dynamic Legal Forms's website, and users can go back and edit it for free during the following year. Users don't have to finish in one sitting. Wills are often recommended for anyone with financial assets, but can be especially useful for newlyweds, new families, those traveling abroad, and those who have experienced changes in their financial or family situation.

Promotional value expires 180 days after purchase. Amount paid never expires. Limit 10 per person, may buy 5 additional as gifts. Limit 1 per visit. Online only.

About Dynamic Legal Forms
According to the Globe and Mail, lawyer Michael Carabash was doing his taxes with online software when his cousin gave him an innovative idea: to develop a program that would guide users through creating their own will. Carabash seized on the concept and ran with it. Drawing on his experience in estate planning for his dentist clients, he soon created the Will-O-Matic Wizard, an online program that helps users complete their wills quickly on the computer. The new concept of software that helps clients create their own legal documents generated a blitz of media attention. Following close on the Will-O-Matic software's heels, Dynamic Legal Forms' Lease-O-Matic software and other online platforms began enabling Canadians to generate legal documents including residential, family-law, and employment agreements. Each software package comes with helpful information––though not legal advice––in the form of e-books and prompts.

Posted by jessica on
Minimal time, maximum impact: drop-in volunteer programs in our national parks
There are a number of things I find myself feeling grateful for this morning: my body's unprecedented cooperation with actually getting out of bed when the alarm went off, despite the heavy darkness outside my bedroom window; the clear passage to the counter at my favorite coffee shop, free from its usual crowds in the still-fuzzy first light of day; and the perfectly timed arrival of the 49 bus, which takes me from the Mission, the San Francisco neighborhood I call home, to Fort Mason, the little national park that calls this city home. But most of all, I realize as I stand draining the caffeine from a paper cup in front of Fort Mason's building 201, I'm grateful for this moment.
The sky's starting to glow blue as the sun creeps higher; the sounds of traffic have already been erased from my memory by the soft pounding of joggers' footsteps as they sail past me and the squawking of parakeets in the Monterey Cypress trees. It's 9:00 a.m. on a Tuesday, and instead of sitting inside my apartment or the bus or the office, I'm here, breathing in Bay-cooled air, squinting against the sunshine, and mentally thanking the National Park Service (NPS) for preserving open spaces like this one.
Which is why, today, I'm here to give back. Like many others, I started 2014 last week with the hope that my coming year would involve more adventure, community service, and environmental consciousness. And as it turns out, it's incredibly easy to work towards all of those goals in the span of a just few hours here in Northern California. The NPS has a constant need for casual, drop-in, short-term volunteers in all of its local parks. Which means that, on your next visit to one of HI's Norcal hostels, you can get outdoors, get your hands dirty, and leave your destination a little better than the way you found it – all without a lot of paperwork, training, or even time.
It's the NPS's Fort Mason Maintenance Program that's brought me, and a few others, out on this January morning. In addition to me, there's a German tourist with a love of the outdoors, a retired MUNI mechanic with a deft hand at tree pruning, and docent from the California Academy of Sciences. Our project leader, Susan, cruises up to us in a little ranger-green parks vehicle, and practically claps her hands as we all confirm we're here to volunteer. She immediately hands us each a little commemorative pin, thanks us ceremoniously for our dedication to the parks, and tells us we're about to have some fun.
Susan outfits us with gardening gloves, kneeling pads, serious-looking tools, and neon-yellow vests proudly announcing our Parks Service Volunteer status. "We're going to spend about an hour making this park more beautiful for all of its visitors, helping the park staff, and helping each other," she says, grinning. "And then we're going to take a break. We're going to have snacks and water, and we're going to take a few minutes to stretch and breathe the fresh air and just think to ourselves, 'My goodness, I can't believe this is my life – I'm so happy to be here!'"
I momentarily suspect hyperbole on Susan's part, but decide to go along with it, grabbing my rake and starting to clear leaves from a nearby plant bed. A few minutes in, I'm inhaling the scent of dirt and mulch and realizing, with genuine shock, that it might be a better wake-up call than even the smell of percolating early-morning coffee. I'm chatting with the German tourist about the best breweries in San Francisco. Before I know it, an hour has gone by. "My goodness," I find myself thinking, involuntarily, "I'm so happy to be here!" That Susan's a pretty smart lady.
Susan leads us all into Fort Mason's immensely popular community garden, where San Franciscans plant plots of Meyer lemon bushes and rainbow chard after spending several years on a wait list. I've never been in here before, even though it's within eye-shot of HI-Fisherman's Wharf and even though it's a lovely spot to relax. We spend a few minutes stretching out our arms and legs and backs, soothing our muscles after the unfamiliar stooping and kneeling and shoveling.
"We're going to play a game now called 'best and worst,'" Susan tells us a few minutes later as she hands out granola bars. "We'll go around the circle and everyone will say what the worst thing is that's happened to them this morning. And then they'll say what the best thing is."
And now, a few hours later, I can't seem to remember what anyone's "worst" was. But I do remember the unanimous chorus of "bests": "This. Being here right now." It was enough to bolster us all for another two hours of work. And it was enough to send each of us off with a new outlook on our parks, and on the day ahead.
Get Your Hands Dirty
Ready to get involved and change your own perspective? From the Point Reyes seashore, to the Marin Headlands, to several parks in San Francisco, there are tons of ways to help out without making a long-term commitment. All of the programs below accept drop-in or one-time volunteers, ask only a few hours of their time, and offer participants an easy way to make a positive change on the Northern California landscape.
Keep in mind: while most of these programs operate on a regular schedule, in some cases work days are canceled due to weather, holidays, or other factors. So always be sure to check out the web page of the project you're interested in ahead of time. While many programs encourage volunteers to just show up on appointed days, some do require advanced registration and a signed volunteer release form. Again, be sure to read up on the program you're interested in to find out what kind of registration, if any, is needed.
San Francisco
Volunteering with the Fort Mason Maintenance Project, held on Tuesdays from 9:00 a.m. to noon, is "roll out of bed and get there five minutes later"-convenient if you're staying at HI-Fisherman's Wharf. But the city's offerings hardly stop there. The Golden Gate National Reserve Area's Park Stewardship Program has casual opportunities to volunteer twice a week. Thursdays at the Presidio Coastal Bluffs and Saturdays at Lands End, drop in to help preserve the vibrant coastal ecosystem right in San Francisco's backyard. Since 1996, program volunteers have planted over 100,000 plants, but there's still much more to be done!
On Wednesday mornings, you can also stop by Sutro Heights Park and get involved helping to keep the San Francisco coastline beautiful.
Marin Headlands
The Parks Conservancy hosts Habitat Restoration Projects most Tuesdays and Sundays, with projects occasionally taking place not far from HI-Marin Headlands. Check out the project's schedule of upcoming volunteer opportunities to see what's on when. Wednesdays and Saturdays, you can also visit the Marin Headlands Nursery to help care for 35,000 plants that will be used in restoration projects throughout the area.
Point Reyes
Kule Loklo work days give drop-in volunteers a chance to help park staff maintain Point Reyes National Seashore's Kule Loklo cultural exhibit. Kule Loklo is a re-creation of a traditional Coastal Miwok village, giving visitors a look into the lifestyle of the people who lived in the area for thousands of years before the Europeans came to California. Work days take place the second Saturday of each month from 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. Drop-in volunteers can also help park staff with monitoring coho salmon and steelhead trout, collecting data on numbers of fish, observing changes in habitat, and more.
Point Reyes National Seashore is home to thousands of known species, including over 100 that are endangered, rare, or threatened. With so much to protect, the park is always in need of volunteers. The Habitat Restoration Program takes place one Sunday each month and focuses on everything from native plant to stream rehabilitation. From May through September, drop-in volunteers can also help out with gathering native plant seeds, gaining knowledge about plant identification and seed collection along the way. And from November through March, you can spend a few hours with the Range Watershed Restoration project, planting native grasses, weeding, and even helping out with construction projects.
To learn more about all the Parks Conservancy is doing in Northern California, and how you can help out, take a look around their volunteer page.
Stay at HI-Point Reyes, HI-Marin Headlands, or one of HI's three San Francisco hostels.

Yet another appeal to useless action by the home of ALL useless actions. How about pulling that statue off of your dashboard, powering off your cell phone, and putting 100% of your attention on the task at hand: DRIVING!
I always like the routine done by George Carlin about the plastic Jesus on the dashboard. If you ever noticed, Jesus is always facing the driver, and not looking out at the road or other drivers. "Hey Jesus, watch me make this left turn." CRASH!

Tiger Hunting down Hunn for Melges 32 Australian Title
15 March 2014
Andrew Hunn on Voodoo Chile leads the Melges 32 Australian Championships at the conclusion of day two's racing on Sydney Harbour. Chris Way's Easy Tiger III fought hard to remain within three points of Hunn followed closely by defending National Champion Greg Prescott 2 Unlimited a further two points behind.
The Middle Harbour Yacht Club PRO Phil Yoemans set the race course in a Light 10- 13 knot N-NE breeze, tacticians were working hard dealing with typical Saturday traffic on Sydney harbour , dodging ferries in addition to picking the wind shifts near North Head.
Today's big movers in the Corinthian division were the Panther crew, the seventy-five years young skipper Stephen O'Rourke showed the young guys how to do it, finding their form with a solid third place result in race six. The crew work on Panther is a family effort, including son-in-law Burke, and grandson Justin. Steve commented "I was very happy with the results, I'm racing without my good mate and tactician, Moth National Champion of 1969 Dave McKay (still celebrating that 1969 win)". The Panther team are learning and building on their achievements, looking to peak at Hamilton Island race week later this year.
Queensland boat Barry Cuneo on Envy Scooters have performed consistently during the regatta. Barry is a strong supporter of the Royal Queensland Young Guns youth Program. The Envy Scooters Melges 32 team includes program members, 29er sailor Charlie Wyatt and Laser sailor Will Bates, along with Club Coach and mentor Adrian Finglas as tactician.
The fleet sponsored by Gottifredi Maffioli Ropes, Quantum Sails and Magic Marine will need to be on the ball for day three. The forecast is a light and fluky breeze swinging from the north to the south, south west. The fleet is compact after seven heats so it looks like the result drop will be key at the end of the day.

Tuesday, 05 November 2013 05:54 PM
House of Representatives oversight panel subpoenaed the Obama administration on Tuesday for internal reports showing the number of people who have enrolled in health coverage through new online insurance marketplaces in all 50 states.
House Ways and Means Chairman Dave Camp said the subpoena was necessary to learn how many people must enroll by the end of December to ensure that those who want benefits are able to obtain them by Jan. 1. That is when coverage is scheduled to begin under the healthcare reform law known as Obamacare.
"Actual enrollment could lag projections by over 1 million people," Camp said in the letter to Marilyn Tavenner, administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. "There is no evidence this system is capable of handling this type of volume."
Camp said status reports on enrollment had been made available to top officials including Tavenner and U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius. But he complained the administration had refused to share them with congressional investigators. Tavenner told a Senate oversight panel earlier on Tuesday that the administration would release enrollment figures for October next week.
The administration and 14 states have built online marketplaces or exchanges that offer private coverage to millions of uninsured people, often at federally subsidized prices. Some exchanges have had a rocky start, particularly the federal web portal, HealthCare.gov, which administration officials acknowledge has been able to enroll only a small number of people since Oct. 1 because of technical problems.
Camp said internal administration memos projected 494,620 enrollees for the month of October and 706,600 for November, but that the actual number could be lower than 100,000 for last month. Tavenner told the Senate Health Education Labor and Pensions Committee that the administration had expected 800,000 enrollees in the federal exchange alone by the end of November.

Adobe AIR
Adobe Integrated Runtime (AIR) is a cross-platform runtime environment developed by Adobe Systems for building rich Internet applications using Adobe Flash, Adobe Flex, HTML, or Ajax, that can be deployed as desktop applications.
Installing Adobe AIR
Install adobe-air-sdk from the AUR.
Installing an AIR Application
Download the application, and unzip it to Template:Filename. To run it you can use the command
$ /opt/adobe-air-sdk/bin/adl -nodebug /opt/airapps/<Application name>/META-INF/AIR/application.xml /opt/airapps/<Application name>/
Making it executable
You can also make an executable by creating a file in Template:Filename:
#! /bin/sh /opt/adobe-air-sdk/bin/adl -nodebug /opt/airapps/wimp/META-INF/AIR/application.xml /opt/airapps/wimp/
The app might need parameters (voddler) so then the script can look like:
#! /bin/sh /opt/adobe-air-sdk/bin/adl -nodebug /opt/airapps/wimp/META-INF/AIR/application.xml /opt/airapps/wimp/ -- $1 $2 $3 $4
Then chmod the file so that it can execute:
$ chmod +x filename
Now you have installed an application in AIR. Yes it is this silly :P
Removing the application
Delete the application folder in Template:Filename. Also delete the executable if you created one.

NC man charged with shooting, killing pet snake
NC man charged with shooting, killing pet snake
A Lincoln County man has been arrested after authorities say he shot and killed a pet snake.
The Gaston Gazette reports that deputies responded to a call of a shooting at a home at around 9:30 p.m. Sunday.
There they found Gary Wayne Ericcson sitting on the front porch. Authorities also found a 20-gauge shotgun in a bedroom and a pistol on a nightstand. There were also several holes in the walls from shotgun blasts and a dead snake behind the house.
Ericcson told deputies he shot the pet snake. He faces several charges including felony cruelty to animals and was jailed on a $20,000 bond. It wasn't known if Ericcson had an attorney.

Jake Owen Shares How He Helps His Brother With the Ladies on 'Chelsea Lately'
Jake Owen joined the most irreverent host on late-night television on Thursday night. Seated in the co-pilot chair, he shared the many ways he helps his brother Jarrod with the women. He also talked about his girlfriend, his love of Steel Panther and even defended his home state of Florida on Chelsea Handler's 'Chelsea Lately' on E!
The conversation about his brother began when Handler asked him if he picked up a lot of women on tour. "I have a super hot girlfriend," Owen said after a few uncomfortable seconds.
"Is she gonna go on the road with you, because she should," Handler prodded. Owen admits that this year he'll have his own tour bus, so he and Lacey can have some privacy while on tour. Previously, he'd been sharing a bus with 11 other guys.
Jarrod — Jake's twin brother — sells insurance in Vero Beach, Fla., their hometown. The singer says he's gotten more than one late night phone call asking him to talk to a girl he'd just met. "Sounds like Jarrod has a lot going for him," Handler cracks. Last week, Owen was on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!'

What people say about Blak & Blu?
This Album is the Truth
I am a bit surprised by all of the ambivalent reviewers on Amazon. This album is remarkable from start to finish and I'm not finding any dull tracks whatsoever.
First, let's get something clear. Gary Clark Jr. is not a newcomer as some people are suggesting. He has several self-released albums which for some reason are not available on Amazon but I have in my iTunes library: Worry No More, 110, Gary Clark Jr. and the commercially released Bright Lights EP. Those releases sound like demos compared to 'Blak and Blu' – which offers rich instrumental arrangements and seamlessly unites the classic with the modern.
The production is diverse and provides a fusion of so many different influences and genres: a creature that's part Jimi Hendrix, part Gov't Mule, part Amorica/Three Snakes-era Black Crowes, and a tablespoon of Ben Harper, while interstitially placing songs resonating classic Muddy Waters and even Marvin Gaye ("Please Come Home" is the modern-day "Distant…

Malcolm Gladwell's latest pop sociology book, Outliers, did not live up to the promise of its subhead: "The Story of Success." As always with Gladwell, the tidbits of little publicized studies (e.g. the cultural reason for the excessive Korean Air plane crashes) and psychological tests (e.g. the impact of calling a Southern guy vs. New Englander an "asshole" on his way into a classroom study) were fascinating in their own right, the perfect fodder for cocktail chat. But, as has been the worsening trend with his trio of books, Gladwell simply doesn't connect the social observations in a convincing – or useful – thesis.
While I still stand by The Tipping Point as an essentiel read for anyone in PR or marketing, Outliers felt like a lazy attempt. It was formulaic (and as a result will likely become a bestseller on the merit of the author's past success), oftentimes condescending and surprisingly simplistic, especially in its generalizations on wealth and race.
For now, I'm sticking to my new favorite columnists, Chip and Dan Heath, whose book Made to Stick: Why Some Ideas Survive and Others Die is on my short list. For a taste of their insight, check out their column in Fast Company.

18-20 July 2012, New York, USA—The New York Office, in collaboration with the World Trade Organization (WTO), organized a Seminar on International Trade Law and Policy.The Seminar, held at the Permanent Mission of Malaysia to the United Nations, gathered participants from the diplomatic community, the United Nations and other Governmental Organizations.
Mr. Maarten Smeets (Chief of Section, Institute for Training and Technical Cooperation, WTO), who provided a comprehensive review of the functioning of the International Trading System, highlighted WTO's main objective: trade liberalization – one of the strongest components for economic growth.
To this end, Professor Thomas Prusa (Department of Economics, Rutgers University) remarked on the significance of the multilateral trade system, through which the WTO system facilitates negotiations and oversees complex and legally binding rules.
The benchmarks of the WTO system include: the principles of non-discrimination and reciprocity, transparency and predictability/stability. Further, States convene in the WTO negotiating Rounds to discuss how to decrease global protectionism and tariffs. The last Round, known as the Doha Development Agenda –DDA-, however, did not achieve the progress anticipated, as States barely agreed on the critical agenda topics, e.g. agriculture, trade facilitation and dispute settlement issues.
During tough economic times, states sometimes opt for more protectionist measures which paradoxically constrict economic growth. Professor Prusa underscored that in contrast to the Great Depression (1930), States in response to the Great Recession (2008) did not increase protectionist policies, enabling for international trade to spawn growth. Nonetheless, as Mr. Smeets pointed out, 3% of the global trade takes place under protectionist measures (mainly using Non-Tariff Measures -NTMs), and he predicted that an increase in this trend can slow down the international trade flow and affect economic growth. Along with NTMs, other commonly used mechanisms are the Temporary Trade Barriers (gathering mainly anti-dumping measures, together with countervailing duty, global safeguards).
Incomparison to multilateral trade, Professor J.H.H. Weiler (Director, Jean Monnet Center for International and Regional Economic Law and Justice, New York University School of Law) discussed Regional Trade Agreements (RTA) and the implications for WTO's principle of most-favored nation. He pointed out that RTAs offer benefits in fostering international trade principles, while also positively influencing inter alia regional political stability and social integration. Mr. Smeets further added that, because of a current lack of agreement in the multilateral negotiation Rounds (as the DDA); States are moving into regional/bilateral trade agreements, which promote the ideals of trade liberalization.
Ms. Tacko Ndiaye (Policy Adviser on Economic Empowerment, UN Women) instructed on implications for gender in the international trade policy. Last April 2012, UNCTAD XIII Conference, for the first time, dedicated a panel to trade and gender. Despite this progress, WTO agreements barely use gender impact assessments. Also, Informal Cross Border Trade (ICBT), in which women are often involved, is widely neglected in WTO negotiations. In this sense, aid for trade should target informal trade and positively impact women.
According to Luciana Mermet (Policy Specialist, Trade and Human Development at the Poverty Group, Bureau for Development Policy, UNDP), the current state of the Least Developed Countries (LDCs) within the international trade sphere remains weak. Since 2008, the total share of LDCs in world's exports represents 1%, affecting their bargaining power in trade negotiations. Unfortunately, the 2011 WTO Ministerial Conference didn't include an expected LDCs package.
Mr. Kevin Cassidy (Communications and External Relations Officer, ILO New York) discussed the relation of employment and international trade. He emphasized that trade negotiations need to include employment and social policies (including environment); social inequalities are not addressed through only economic growth. Further, trade unions have been losing their bargaining power, because trade liberalization, per se, does not foster greater employment and social justice.
Finally, Dr. Wei Liu (Economic Affairs Officer, Policy Analysis and Network Branch. Division for Sustainable Development, UN-DESA) pointed out how the international community needs more signals and clarity from the WTO regarding trade and sustainable development goals. Further, in terms green economy and trade - "there is a need to rebalance WTO rules to ease the transition for developing countries to obtain a greener economy".

The CBA Marsh Archaeology Award for Community Archaeology
The deadline for this award for 2007 has now passed
See the winning entries, click here.
To see the shortlisted and highly commended entries, see the Results page.
The Award will be given to a community archaeology group, in order to recognise and promote high quality archaeological work being carried out by the community archaeology sector to sustain and transmit knowledge and our cultural heritage to future generations.
There will be one award, the Marsh Archaeology Award for Community Archaeology. The Award winner will receive £1,000GBP to be used as they see fit. Other entries may be deemed highly commended by the judges if appropriate, but will receive no financial reward.
Both long-standing archaeology or other heritage groups, and short-term groupings of volunteers on specific projects are eligible for the Award. Groups must be nominated for their archaeological research/fieldwork, largely carried out or published during the previous 2 years. Archaeology is here defined as any investigation of the material remains of the past, from any period, and potentially above and/or below ground. It can also include field conservation work to broaden access to archaeological sites and landscapes. The work must have been carried out within the United Kingdom, including its coastal and offshore waters. It must also have been initiated and led by the community themselves, although the Group may have received support and encouragement from appropriate professionals.
Judging will be made by Brian Marsh OBE, the sponsor of the award, from a short list drawn up by the CBA. This short list will be selected from nominations sent in by, or on behalf of, the group. The selection panel will consist of the CBA's Director, Head of Education and Outreach, and an appointed CBA Trustee. The selection panel shall have no connection with any of the nominated groups. Members of the panel must declare any such connection, and be replaced by another officer or trustee.
The Award will be made on the basis of two main criteria:
- the contribution the group has made to archaeological knowledge and understanding;
- the activities of the group within their local community, and the level of engagement of that community in the activities.
The group should have advanced the knowledge of the archaeology of their area by making new discoveries, or new interpretations of existing evidence. They should also be a lively and open social grouping that gives back to the wider community the results of their work.
The group must have worked to the highest archaeological standards, and made due provision for appropriate conservation, archiving and publication of their work.
Entry Procedure
Nominations can be sent in by the group themselves, or by others (with the consent of the group). Entries must be submitted using the standard entry form, with supporting evidence in whatever format is most suitable (e.g. written documentation, publications, CD-ROMs or DVDs, website addresses). Supporting testimonials can be used to augment a nomination, but are not essential.
Nominations must be submitted in writing to the Council for British Archaeology by midday on the 5 December 2007. Address for nominations: The Director, Council for British Archaeology, St Mary's House, 66 Bootham, York YO30 7BZ, email firstname.lastname@example.com∞.
The CBA recommend that any unpublished reports arising from your work are entered into the OASIS system∞.
| CBA, St Mary's House, 66 Bootham, York YO30 7BZ.

Brother Robert Ziobro, S.C., was driving to St. David the King parish when an oncologist called and told him to stop on the side of the road.
"All I could think was: 'I'm ridden with cancer,'" Brother Robert, 68, recounted. "That's the first thing that came to my mind."
But as quickly as he filled with fear, the Brother of the Sacred Heart emptied his soul of despair.
"I have to have faith," he reminded himself, and then told God, "I put myself in your hands."
Seconds later, Brother Robert's act of faith was rewarded by the doctor's pronouncement that tests showed his lungs were cancer-free. "I can't find those three nodules," the doctor said. "You are healed."
"Can I say 'miracle?'" Brother Robert asked.
"No, I'm not Catholic," the doctor joked. "You may use the word 'healed.'"
The director of religious education in Princetown Junction, N.J., is certain his cures are miraculous and due to his intercessor in heaven, Pope John Paul II.
Throughout his recovery, Brother Robert was blessed twice with the relics of Pope John Paul II — once with a piece of his bone and another time with a piece of his hair. He carries a precious gift — a rosary that had been touched to the casket of the beatified pope during his second burial. Not only is Brother Robert himself Polish, but "the kids (I teach) say I look like him," he said.
He recalled the time he attended a prayer service for religious at St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York City during a papal visit. Because Brother Robert knows a little Polish, he attempted to address the Holy Father in their native tongue as he walked down the aisle.
"I was trying to say 'We welcome you' in Polish," Brother Robert chuckled, "And what I said was, 'Merry Christmas.'" Pope John Paul II responded with his typical good humor and blessed Brother Robert. Now, after Brother Robert's cures, he considers his fellow Pole "a close friend" in heaven.
In fact, Brother Robert's story was considered during deliberations for Pope John Paul II's sainthood cause. However, at a special memorial Mass for the pope attended by a Polish priest in charge of investigating the healings for Rome, the case chosen was a man who had been cured of pancreatic cancer. That case was never verified.
Much to Brother Robert's dismay, the news of his healing has led some zealous faithful to contact him, requesting his own hair or his own pieces of clothing. "The credit has nothing to do with me," he insists firmly. "It has everything to do with God and John Paul II."
Parishioners at St. David told Brother Robert that he looked ashen. Not wanting to bother anyone, it took some convincing to get him to a doctor. Dr. Anthony Chiaramida, his attending physician and a cardiologist, met the reluctant Brother Robert in the emergency room of a New Jersey hospital.
Not only had the patient suffered a heart attack, Chiaramida said, he was severely anemic and losing blood from his gastrointestinal tract.
"This gravely affected his prognosis, since it prevented the use of important therapies for treating a heart attack, which in themselves can cause bleeding," Chiaramida explained.
Even more horrifically, stage 4 cancer, the cause of the bleeding, was discovered in Brother Robert's colon.
Dr. Michael J. Nissenblatt, the associate director of oncology at Robert Wood Johnson University oversaw removal of nearly a foot of Brother Robert's colon on March 25, 2010 — the feast of the Annunciation.
"When I met him after surgery, the cancer had spread to lymph nodes, and so he needed chemotherapy to try and prevent that from coming back," Nissenblatt said. Brother Robert "went through the chemo with great difficulty" because of heart disease, weight issues, diabetes and infections.
Yet, "We treated each of these problems successfully and we were able to complete his chemotherapy (albeit) a few months later than we would've liked," Nissenblatt said.
A few years passed, and Brother Robert seemed on the mend. But complications of a leg infection and three blood clots revealed that the colon cancer had traveled to his lung.
Accompanied by his pastor, Brother Robert decided to attend a healing service at a nearby parish. A relic of Blessed Pope John Paul II was placed on his chest with prayers of intercession.
Nissenblatt referred his patient to the Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York City. During the biopsy, Brother Robert described himself as "in the twilight zone" and "in la-la land." But through the haze, Brother Robert heard a very puzzled doctor exclaim: "Where the hell are they?" He couldn't find the three nodules. They were gone.
"I just smiled and I knew it was John Paul II and the Lord that was helping me through this," Brother Robert said. Four days later, Brother Robert would pull over to the side of the road to hear the words, "You are healed."
More nodules appeared in his lungs, but after a special procedure and a surgery, Brother Robert made incredible progress. Approximately six weeks ago, he was declared cancer-free.
"He has returned to good health," Nissenblatt said. "All of his tests are clear, all of his blood tests are clear, all of his CAT scans are normal."
Is it a miracle?
"I personally think it is," Nissenblatt said. "This man could easily have died before we would've had any shot at his cancer — a good half of those people die before you have a chance to treat them."
"I believe there was divine intervention," Chiaramida agrees.
In addition to his heavenly friend, countless earthly friends have surrounded Brother Robert. Nearly everywhere he turned, he crossed paths with doctors, nurses, fellow patients and many others who had either been taught or knew someone taught by him in high school.
Nissenblatt has been by Brother Robert's side from the beginning, and they have become close friends, swapping the Polish pierogi for the oncologist's challah bread.
"He is very dear. Everyone who meets him loves him," Nissenblatt said. "He brings an enormous smile, great insight, great personal wisdom and lots of people of all faiths, all creeds, of all races."
Brother Robert also attributes the prayers of 700 young children at St. David for his healing. He chuckled as he recounted some of the get-well wishes he received during his recovery. One rendition depicted him crucified on a cross. "I'm not sure she quite understood what was happening to me," he said.
Another frankly asked, "When are you coming back? No one else gives us lollipops."
"He's very much like a large, big bald Santa Claus," Nissenblatt said. "He's just a lovely human being."
Brother Robert believes he is still here for a reason and that by sharing his story he can give hope to others suffering from cancer. He prays every day for his doctors, that God blesses their gifts of healing.
"In this whole plan, God is at work," he reflected. "Whatever I was sent here to do hasn't been accomplished yet."

Two Canadian winter traditions – hockey and skiing – will be combined in a fundraiser for the Shaare Zedek Medical Center in Jerusalem.
Slice the Ice for a Cause, organized by the Canadian Shaare Zedek Hospital Foundation, includes two events, On the Slopes for Candy and the inaugural Hockey Night in Toronto.
NHL alumnus Darryl Sittler will play in a special daytime exhibition hockey game on Jan. 27 with the top 20 Hockey Night in Toronto online fundraisers. Afterward, Sittler will party with guests at the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto. To play, fundraisers must bring in at least $2,500 individually or $25,000 as a team of 10.
"Having the chance to play hockey with Darryl Sittler is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity," said event co-chair Lawrence Mandel. "Both my co-chair, Jordan Black, and I are very excited about this new event."
Guests at Hockey Night in Toronto will enjoy kosher appetizers and desserts with an open bar. There will be prizes, a silent auction and gifts, together with entertainment and interactive games.
Online fundraisers who bring in a minimum of $1,000 will receive a free ticket to party at Hockey Night in Toronto and a free ticket to ski at On the Slopes for Candy on Jan. 31 at the Alpine Ski Club in Collingwood, Ont. Those who raise at least $500 will get a free ticket to one of the events. Other fundraising incentives include a team photo, personalized autographs and photos with Sittler.
On the Slopes for Candy is a fun-filled day of skiing, snowboarding and snowshoeing, with spa services available for non-skiers. Guests will be driven on a luxury coach to Collingwood, and there will be Scotch tasting and a frozen vodka bar.
On the Slopes was renamed in memory of Candy Schaffel Black, who died after a long battle with cancer. On the Slopes for Candy has raised more than $500,000 since its inception. In 2012, over $75,000 was raised, with proceeds going toward the purchase of an incubator and cardiac monitor to support high-risk infants in the neonatal intensive care unit at Shaare Zedek.
Proceeds from Slice the Ice for a Cause will be used for critically needed medical equipment for the neonatal unit at Shaare Zedek. Approximately five per cent of the 15,000 babies born at Shaare Zedek need intensive medical supervision and treatment provided by the neonatal unit.
Shaare Zedek is in the final stage of a $60-million campaign to complete the construction of the New Generation Building. The building will house a world-class facility to serve the health-care needs of women and children.
Known as the Hospital with a Heart, Shaare Zedek relies on donors around the world, as it does not receive government support for education, equipment or research.

1. Re: Company logo is it ok or not?John Danek May 31, 2012 9:39 AM (in response to truebloodxs)
I had trouble with the "G" in the tile. Took me a minute to realize it was a "G". In my opinion, there is too much emphasis on the "F" and not enough on the "G". Perhaps integrate the tilie or a tiling effect into the "G" instead of having the "G" inside the tile. Is this the first design you've come up with or is it what you would consider the best out of a series of comps? Get creative with the typography, but keep it simple.
2. Re: Company logo is it ok or not?truebloodxs May 31, 2012 9:42 AM (in response to John Danek)
No it isn't the best design i've come up with so fare but it was more of an attempt in creating a logo that i will edit later on in the color scheme and let it fit into th website/layout of the products and the company.
3. Re: Company logo is it ok or not?c_ride Jun 8, 2012 6:50 AM (in response to John Danek)
+1 on this - need more emphasis on the G
4. Re: Company logo is it ok or not?printisnotdead Jul 8, 2012 6:35 PM (in response to truebloodxs)
The logo works well for me. But it's not very impressive though. Maybe it would be great to add "loors" to it.
5. Re: Company logo is it ok or not?terrypasencio Jul 30, 2012 4:25 AM (in response to printisnotdead)
Well logo should definitely be simple one..but yours... its too simple...
Also make it somewhat colorful...this logo is no doubt creating an recognition about the company (by the viewer).
But make it somewhat attractive and impressive.
6. Re: Company logo is it ok or not?Ash Sailab Aug 1, 2012 2:57 PM (in response to truebloodxs)
If i were you I would created big G and added P in side G with color red and black or red and white. See this logo http://www.facejar.com

Ash Sailab,
Did you obtained the permission to contact the website owner to use their logo file on Adobe forum? Be certain to do so in the future, always a good idea to obtain a permission IN WRITING before proceeding to do so.
The web link you provided is suffice. And you can explain a bit more details about logo on that site, instead of the latter one you did.
Just two cent advice.
Best, Brian

Wyoming Cowboys Start 0-3, Lose to Cal Poly 24-22
The University of Wyoming football team is off to an 0-3 start in 2012 after losing to Cal Poly 24-22 on Saturday in Laramie. It is UW's first loss to a Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) team.
The Cowboys played without sophomore quarterback Brett Smith, who suffered a concussion in last week's loss to Toledo. Junior Colby Kirkegaard started behind center, finishing the day 15-of-23 with one very costly interception late in the fourth quarter which sealed the game for Cal Poly. UW was only able to convert 2 of the 12 times they faced a third down.
Wyoming's defense struggled early against Cal Poly's triple option. The Mustang's scored on their fourth play of the game when Deonte Williams ran 65 yards to the end zone. After a Wyoming three-and-out, a 74-yard scamper from Williams set up another Cal Poly touchdown and Wyoming was down 14-0 five minutes into the game.
Wyoming Head Coach Dave Christensen said, "Anytime you play somebody, and they're a so-called underdog, and you give them momentum, it's huge for them. Their confidence level goes up, and then we're put in a position to play from behind. We took care of that in the first half, but we didn't get it done the second half."
UW found some life in the second quarter, sparked by a big punt return. A Jalen Claiborne punt return allowed Wyoming to start a drive on the Cal Poly 25 and the Pokes capitalized on the good field position, with Shaun Wick scoring his first career touchdown on a 1-yd run. A pass from Chris McNeill to Sonny Puletasi gave the Pokes the 2-pt conversion. On their next possession, the Kirkegaard hit Dominic Rufran with a 26-yd pass that led to another 1-yd touchdown run by Wick allowing UW to take a 15-14 lead that would last to halftime.
Halfway through the third quarter, Cal Poly grabbed the lead back on an 8 play, 40-yd drive capped off by a 5-yd touchdown pass. The defense for both teams smothered their opposites offense and the Pokes went into the fourth quarter down 21-15.
Facing fourth and four on the Wyoming 34, Cal Poly went for and made a 51-yd field goal to give the Mustangs a 24-15 lead with 9:49 left in the game. The long kick by Booby Zalud made the margin too wide for UW to overcome. Head Coach Tim Walsh said punting never crossed his mind on the play.
"We were either going to go for it or kick it," commented Coach Walsh. "I just know he (Zalud) is that good. We practiced in Cheyenne and he was kicking 64-65 yard field goals."
The Cowboy defense kept the Mustangs from adding to the scoreboard the rest of the game, but after UW scored on a Wick's third touchdown (14 yards) of the game with 7:34 remaining, the Pokes couldn't add anymore either. Wyoming got the ball with 1:37 left, but on the first play of the drive Kirkegaard was intercepted by Nico Molino at the Wyoming 40. Cal Poly took a knee three times and ran out the game clock.
Sophomore cornerback Blair Burns, who finished with two tackles and two pass break-ups said, "It's always tough when you get one of those close games, and you just can't figure out or pull it out in the end. You just go back to the drawing board tomorrow, make corrections and get ready for Idaho."
Wyoming (0-3) had 137 rushing yards and 123 passing yards for 260 total yards. Wick led the team with 67 yards on the ground and 3 touchdowns. Cal Poly rushed for 325 yards and passed for 34 yards for 359 yards of total offense.
Wyoming will hit the road to take on Idaho on Saturday, September 22. The game will kick off at 3 p.m. with coverage beginning on KOWB at 2 p.m. Smith's status is still uncertain.

y concern in the endocrinology world is the pseudo doctors who work at the "private clinics" offering "anti-aging" therapies. I frequent bodybuilding forums and there are several squatters there who represent these docs and encourage users who have OD'd on roids to go visit the doctor for testosterone injections, etc. These places of course take no insurance, want cash only, and charge insane amounts for office visits and products. Pure profit operations. Everyone they see "has a testosterone problem" and as long as you pay the big bucks, you can get as much injected as you like. Want to hit a level of 1,000 for the next 10 years? No problem.

Because I have been testing my Testosterone periodically for 8 years.
My normal was around 900.
Then I took Propecia for 3 years, and I ended up hovering around 400 with extreme loss of libido even after I stopped taking it.
470 has been extremely low for me with total lack of interest for a long, long time.
Since BFS started I skydove to 240 ....
When evaluating Testosterone levels, "normal" is based on what is normal for the age group. Not based on the individual.
At some point your body begins to suffer due to the lack of Testosterone. Bone density issues. Increased risk of heart problems. The list is long.
240 is too low. For everyone.

TNFα compromises the inner ear microcirculation in a sphingosine kinase 1/sphingosine-1-phosphate dependent manner – a novel mechanism for sudden hearing loss (SHL)
Search Medline for
|April 22, 2010
This study establishes a link between inflammation and inner ear vascular dysfunction. Recovery of auditory function in sudden hearing loss (SHL) patients treated with a TNFα inhibitor were consistent with a vascular origin. We investigated the inner ear microcirculation using (1) an in vitro model of the spiral modiolar artery (SMA), the end artery feeding the inner ear, (2) intra vital microscopy of stria vascularis perfusion, and (3) in vitro measurement of cochlear lateral wall capillary constriction. We demonstrate that in all parts of the cochlear microcirculation (SMA, stria vascularis and cochlear lateral wall capillaries), TNFα induces a proconstrictive state via activation of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P). Analysis of the molecular signalling pathway identified the phosphorylation of sphingosine kinase 1 (the S1P generating enzyme activated by TNFα) as a new therapeutic target for SHL. We conclude that any pathology linked to the release of TNFα has the potential to reduce cochlear blood flow and cause SHL. The present study integrates SHL into the family of cardiovascular pathologies, with immediate implications related to risk stratification, diagnosis and treatment.

In the last few posts, we've been looking at combinatorial Hopf algebras, specifically:
- SSym, a Hopf algebra with a basis of (indexed by) permutations
- YSym, with a basis of binary trees
- QSym, with a basis of compositions
It turns out that these three Hopf algebras are quite closely related (and indeed, there are a few others in the same "family"). Let's start with SSym and YSym.
Given a permutation p of [1..n], we can construct a binary tree called the descending tree as follows:
- Split the permutation as p = ls ++ [n] ++ rs
- Place n at the root of the tree, and recursively place the descending trees of ls and rs as the left and right children of the root
- To bottom out the recursion, the descending tree of the empty permutation is of course the empty tree
For example, the following diagram shows the descending tree of [3,5,1,4,2].
Here's the Haskell code:
descendingTree [] = E descendingTree [x] = T E x E descendingTree xs = T l x r where x = maximum xs (ls,_:rs) = L.break (== x) xs l = descendingTree ls r = descendingTree rs > :m Math.Algebras.Structures Math.Combinatorics.CombinatorialHopfAlgebra > descendingTree [3,5,1,4,2] T (T E 3 E) 5 (T (T E 1 E) 4 (T E 2 E))
Now you'll recall that for the Hopf algebra YSym, although we sometimes carry around the node labels to help us see what is going on, we're really only interested in the shapes of the trees. So here's a function to erase the labels:
shape :: PBT a -> PBT () shape t = fmap (\_ -> ()) t > shape $ T (T E 3 E) 5 (T (T E 1 E) 4 (T E 2 E)) T (T E () E) () (T (T E () E) () (T E () E))
(shape . descendingTree) is a function from permutations to unlabelled trees. We can consider this as a map between the fundamental bases of SSym and YSym, which therefore induces a linear map between the corresponding Hopf algebras:
descendingTreeMap :: (Eq k, Num k) => Vect k SSymF -> Vect k (YSymF ()) descendingTreeMap = nf . fmap (\(SSymF xs) -> (YSymF . shape . descendingTree) xs)
Now it turns out that this map is in fact a Hopf algebra morphism. What does that mean? Basically it means that descendingTreeMap plays nicely ("commutes") with the unit, mult, counit, comult, and antipode maps in the two Hopf algebras.
For example, for an algebra morphism, we require:
f (x1*x2) = f x1 * f x2
f . unit = unit
It's not immediately clear why descendingTreeMap should have these properties. The unit property is clear:
> descendingTreeMap 1 == 1
Trueor put another way
> descendingTreeMap (ssymF []) == ysymF E
But what about the mult property?
Recall that in SSymF, we multiply permutations by shifting the right operand, and then summing all possible shuffles of the two lists:
> ssymF [3,2,1] * ssymF [1,2] F [3,2,1,4,5]+F [3,2,4,1,5]+F [3,2,4,5,1]+F [3,4,2,1,5]+F [3,4,2,5,1]+F [3,4,5,2,1]+F [4,3,2,1,5]+F [4,3,2,5,1]+F [4,3,5,2,1]+F [4,5,3,2,1]
On the other hand, in YSymF, we multiply by multi-splitting the left operand, and then grafting the parts onto the leafs of the right operand, in all possible ways. The following diagram shows one possible multi-split-grafting, corresponding to one of the summands in [3,5,1,4,2] * [1,2]:
The numbers along the tops of the trees are the node labels generated by the descending tree construction. We can see from these that there is an exact correspondence between a shifted shuffle in SSymF and a multi-split grafting in YSymF. The asymmetry in the mult for YSymF, where we graft multi-splits of the left operand onto the right operand, corresponds to the asymmetry in the mult for SSymF, where we shift the right operand. This shifting in SSymF ensures that the nodes for the right operand end up at the root of the descending tree, as required by the grafting in YSymF. When we defined shuffling, we gave a recursive definition, but it's fairly clear that the grafting of the parts of the multi-split onto the right tree is accomplishing the same thing.
Similarly, a coalgebra morphism is a linear map which commutes with counit and comult:
In SSymF, counit is 1 on the empty permutation, 0 on anything else. In YSymF, counit is 1 on the empty tree, 0 on anything else. The descendingTreeMap sends the empty permutation to the empty tree, so it's clear that it commutes with counit in the required way.
What about comult? In SSymF, the comult of a permutation is the sum of its two-part deconcatenations (with each part flattened back to a permutation).
> comult $ ssymF [3,5,1,4,2] (F [],F [3,5,1,4,2])+(F [1],F [4,1,3,2])+(F [1,2],F [1,3,2])+(F [2,3,1],F [2,1])+(F [2,4,1,3],F [1])+(F [3,5,1,4,2],F [])
In YSymF, the comult of a tree is the sum of its two-part splits. Now it's clear that flattening makes no difference to the descending tree. Then, it's also clear that if you take descending trees of the two parts of a deconcatenation, this corresponds to a split of the descending tree of the whole.
Finally, a Hopf algebra morphism is a bialgebra morphism which in addition commutes with antipode.
In SSymF and YSymF, we didn't give an explicit expression for the antipode, but instead derived it from mult and comult using the fact that they are both graded connected bialgebras. So it's actually kind of obvious that descendingTreeMap will be a Hopf algebra morphism, but just to check:
prop_HopfAlgebraMorphism f x = (f . antipode) x == (antipode . f) x > quickCheck (prop_HopfAlgebraMorphism descendingTreeMap) +++ OK, passed 100 tests.
Given any tree, there are many ways to label the nodes so that the tree is descending (ie such that the label on each child node is less than the label on its parent). For example, we could first label all the leaf nodes [1..k], and then all their immediate parents [k+1..], and so on. (For our example tree, this would lead to the alternative labelling [1,5,2,4,3].)
This shows that the descending tree map is surjective, but not injective. Hence YSym is a quotient of SSym.

CRESTVIEW � This fall, area residents might celebrate Veterans Day on the holiday's Nov. 11 date, rather than the Saturday before, if a request before the city council is approved.
CRESTVIEW � This fall, area residents might celebrate Veterans Day on the holiday's Nov. 11 date, rather than the Saturday before, if a request before the city council is approved.
City leaders are expected to discuss the issue during their next meeting, 6 p.m. May 13 at city hall.
Events organizer Deborah "Pinky" Jimison, of the Crestview Veterans of Foreign Wars post, said she brought the matter before the council at other veterans� request.
In past years, the city's downtown parade has occurred the Saturday before Veterans Day while a "Wall Ceremony" honoring veterans' sacrifices occurs on Veterans Day itself.
However, organizers envision a daylong observation of downtown Veterans Day events, beginning with the 9 a.m. parade on Main Street, followed by the "11-11-11" Wall Ceremony at the Okaloosa County Veterans Memorial, Jimison said. Other events could include a downtown festival with vendors, food and exhibits honoring local veterans, for which organizers would like to collaborate with the Main Street Crestview Association.
Public Works Director Wayne Steele said his crews would need two hours before the 9 a.m. parade to set up barricades on Main Street.
Police Chief Tony Taylor said his officers could readily handle rerouting downtown traffic, along with setting up and taking down parade barricades.
Councilman Tom Gordon noted that some downtown businesses will be closed for the holiday and would be unaffected by the morning street closure.
Council President Robyn Helt suggested researching the proposal before taking action on it.
Want to go?
The Crestview City Council will discuss whether to allow a daylong downtown Veterans Day observance on Nov. 11. The meeting begins at 6 p.m. May 13 at the City Council chamber in City Hall.

There are nearly 200 of them in Lorain County, with the number growing all the time. Yet you couldn't identify one on the street, unless you happened to be one of a select few to be notified. These mysterious individuals are persons who have been convicted of or pleaded guilty to sexually- oriented criminal offenses and have been labeled by the courts as sexual offenders.

They have two perfectly normal sounding names, but if you are a parent, the Crimea these men are accused of can send shivers down your spine. Both of these men are accused sex-offenders awaiting criminal trials. Both men have been indicted on charges of allegedly raping children, among other indictments. Armstrong, whose home is at 408 Oaknoll Drive in Amherst Township, awaits his pre-trial to be held on Mon day, Aug. 3. He is charged with 11 counts of rape, two counts of illegal use of a minor in nudity oriented material of performance, two counts of pandering obscenity involving a minor and one count each of gross sexual imposition and attempted rape. Armstrong allegedly invited girls into his home where he allegedly videotaped and photographed them taking their clothes off or performing sex acts. In one instance, Armstrong allegedly took a girl into his bedroom. Prior to being arrested, Armstrong was part-owner of North Coast Multi Media Advertising Group, in Elyria.

The address of 921 N. Lake SL is the future site of the Amherst post's new building. According to Post Commander Tom Hauck, the legion hopes for construction on the new building to begin in late August and be complete by October. "A dream that a lot of people thought would never happen is finally coming true," Hauck said. The Amherst post was forced to sell their old building after their operating costs became too high. This came after the suspension of their liquor license by the state for gambling several years ago. Hauck said that the post now wishes to put the past behind them. "We want everyone to know that the post is active," Hauck said. They currently hold meetings every Wednesday evening at 8 pjn. at the Amherst Veterans of Foreign Wars post Hauck said that the VFW was very nice to allow the American Legion to share their space. According to Hauck, Post #118 had been looking for a new construction site for some time. The new building will be paid for by proceeds left over from the sale of the old building and donations. Upon completion of the new building, one of the two cannons that used to sit outside Amherst City Hall will be moved to the American Legion post The other cannon now sits at a newly built war memorial near State Route 2. The Amherst post, which has 418 members according to finance officer Steve Ference, will also establish the Sons of the American Legion. This group will \x open to the families of those in the service. Groundbreaking for the new building should take place in August, Hauck said. After the building has been completed, there will be a grand opening. Until then, current members are encouraged to attend horseshoe pitching sessions every Thursday at the site of the new building.
