Gwen Stefani asks her husband to join her on The Voice
GWEN STEFANI has recruited her husband, BUSH frontman GAVIN ROSSDALE, as her top adviser on U.S. talent show THE VOICE.
The No Doubt star will be standing in for pregnant Christina Aguilera when the U.S. TV talent show returns later this year (22Sep14) and she has asked her man to help her make stars out of her group of wannabes.
Confirming the news in a tweet on Monday (14Jul14), Rossdale wrote, "This fall (autumn), honored to be part of #TheVoice w/ (with) the lovely & talented @gwenstefani."
Stefani will join old pal Pharrell Williams as the new judges on the show. Blake Shelton and Adam Levine will return.

jabba1 avait besoin d'un nouveau design de logo et a lancé un concours sur 99designs.
Un gagnant a été sélectionné de 111 designs proposés par 14 designers freelance.
I need a logo design that says: "I'm hipper than you!"
Manhattan moms will go to almost any length to spoil their children and out-do other moms in their circles. This is particularly so among those who have just had, or are about to have, their first child.
Big City Babe Interiors
I envision Big City Babe Interiors to be a high-end, custom design nursery/bedroom company that partners with moms/dads to create a unique living space for their kids. The logo of the company is "unique living for hip kids."
Specifically, the company makes infant/children's bedding made to order, and also offers consultation on everything from fabric, paint and furniture selection to smart ways of maximizing small spaces (a la Manhattan or other city dwelling where space is at a premium).
The service will cater in particular to first-time-moms of newborns, since these are the women who go completely bonkers overboard in prepping for their babies and indulging their self-image as the hip, "evolved" and expensive living big city mom-- "no canned baby designs a la Babies R Us for me!" they shout.
The kind of person interested in this type of service has a decent amount of disposable income and believes that they and their children deserve the best. Their apartments tend to be meticulously decorated with top brands. They have 1-3 kids max, and fancy themselves hip urban dwellers with a budget to show off.
- Item 1... One thing I would prefer is that not too many colors be used. Simple, smart and saturated-- maybe even monochromatic (black and white outline even) with just one or two elements highlighted in rich color . . . this is the kind of interesting contrast and simplicity I'd like to see.
Also, I need to be sure that the logo will be available to me in a format that I can copy and use for my business cards, website, letterhead, etc. etc.
Please provide image in a vector format like that produced by Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator.
Tx and happy designing!
- Item 1... Oh yes, for god's sake . . . please no rainbows!! ;)

Difference between revisions of "Aleksander Aleksyeyev"
(Added Aleksander Aleksyeyev)
(No difference)
Revision as of 03:29, April 7, 2011
Aleksander Aleksyeyev (called Wolf Nachlass), born in 1820, at Nazarevietz, government of Podolsk, of poor Jewish parents. At the age of ten he was impressed into military service by the press-gang (poimshchiki) of Nicolas I., and sent away to the distant city of Volsks, government of Saratov. It was the political and missionary policy of Nicolas I. to take young boys from their parents and to train them in military schools, so that after they had completed their service of twenty-five years, they might return home and act as missionaries to their parents. Aleksyeyev for a long time resisted Christian teaching, and the officials considered him a most stubborn subject. However, about 1845, he changed his views entirely, and not only became a member of the Orthodox Russian Church, but managed to convert about five hundred Jewish Cantonists, for which he was promoted in 1848 to the rank of a non-commissioned officer, and was honoured by the Emperor's thanks. About 1855, Aleksander was so unfortunate as to lose the use of his legs. He then settled in Novogorod, and during his long illness wrote the following works on ethnographic and missionary topics:—English titles: I. "The Triumph of Christian Teaching over the Talmudic Teaching, or a Soul-saving Conversation of a Christian and a Jew on the Coming of the Messiah" (St. Petersburg, 1859); 2. "Religious Service, Holy Day and Religious Rites of the Jews To-day" (Novogorod, 1861); 3. "The Public Life of the Jews, their Habits, Customs and Prejudices" (ib. 1868); 4. "Colloquies of an Orthodox Christian with a Newly-Converted Jew" (St. Petersburg, 1872); 5. "A Former Jew for Monastries and Monasticism" (Novogorod, 1875); 6. "The Conversion to Christianity of an Observer of the Jewish Law" (ib. 1882); 7. "Do the Jews use Christian Blood?" (ib. 1886), and several others. His works are interesting, as he was the first Jew in Russia to give a description of the life and customs of his Jewish brethren. He refuted the absurd and criminal blood accusation.

Can you explain why people assume that it's good to be sex-positive? Why be sex-positive instead of sex-skeptical and/or sex-ambivalent? Isn't sex-positivity a form of primitivism and bio-Luddism? What experimental-psychological evidence do sex-positives have to back their claims, if any? And if sex-positivity is not OK, then why is it that a majority of atheists are sex-positive? Or are they not?
Views: 1397
Are you talking about sex in the most broad sense,
Yes, but not just about sex, but also about sexuality and sexual things in general, such as sexual attraction, sexual feelings, sexual emotions, sexual attitudes, lust, infatuation, sexual jealousy, gynophobia.
from baby-making to casual sex to complete and total promiscuity,
Yes. All of that. But not only. Not just intercourse, tribadism, masturbation, sex, but all of sexuality. All which is sexual.
or do you want to limit the scope to sex somewhere on that continuum?
No. I'm not limiting it.
When I say "sex-positive," I mean it the way sex-positives mean it. Like this, for example:
I'm sex-positive (generally speaking) because it is fat-free, sugar-free, tax-free, cholesterol-free, pleasurable cardio-vascular activity. For what more could a person possibly ask?
Yup! You nailed it.
Yes she did and I'd like to nail her....lol
Hi Heather
Exactly! LOL
We eat and drink to keep the individual alive
We fuck to keep the species alive.
It is too fundamental to be affected by opinion.
By that logic you should drink some sort of protein shake that contains all nutrition and fluids that you need for the day, and you should have sex only for the purpose of reproduction.
You are right that in itself food and sex are not really up for debate, but nutrition and reproduction are not their only purposes. Both are involved in socializing, and both can provide a fair amount of pleasure (although too much can quickly cause problems).
I view sex (in the broad sense) in a positive light, both for reproduction and for pleasure purposes.
Homo sapiens is also known as "man the toolmaker." Taking the concept of a tool and extending it a bit, just as mankind can use sticks to hit stones for recreation, we also put sex to a use other than reproduction. Sex is apparently pleasurable for all of the higher animals, but most (all?) of the non-primates are disinterested in sex when they are not "in season" (rutting or whatever it is called for the particular species). We and other primates, most notably bonobos (resembling chimps but smaller), are ready to go a few rounds just about anytime.
I agree with you, of course sex and food are more than procreation and nutrition. I always talk in general fundamentals, for me they are the best starting point.
Let's take it a step into specifics. And let's say sex had nothing to do with procreation like for example, anal-sex (man on man, man on woman, whichever). I think we can agree that it still comes under your definition of sex, so how positive are you about anal sex?

Taylor Swift brings spice to British themed Victoria's Secret show
TAYLOR SWIFT took inspiration from former SPICE GIRLS star GERI HALLIWELL by donning a Union Jack mini-dress during her performance at the annual Victoria's Secret fashion show in New York City on Wednesday (13Nov13).
The Love Story hitmaker took to the runway with a bevvy of beauties strutting their stuff in the lingerie brand's extravagant wares, and she went all out when it came to the 'British Invasion' segment of the show.
Swift sported a sexy dress fashioned out of the flag, with a matching red, white and blue train, shoes and miniature top hat. The look was similar to the iconic Union Jack frock worn by Halliwell during a Spice Girls performance at the 1997 Brit Awards in London.
The section also featured models Cara Delevingne and Jourdan Dunn, who gave nods to their homeland by wearing a sexed-up football kit and fox hunting gear respectively. Adriana Lima dressed as a Cockney 'Pearly Queen', Kasia Struss as a British police officer, while Cindy Bruna gave a nod to the rainy U.K. weather in a see-through mac.
Swift then changed into a sparkly, crystal-covered gown to sing her hit tracks including I Knew You Were Trouble while on the catwalk with the scantily-clad models.
Fall Out Boy, A Great Big World and Neon Jungle also performed at the Lexington Avenue Armory bash, where rocker Adam Levine was in the audience to watch his fiancee Behati Prinsloo walk the runway wearing huge white, feathered wings.

Wow, it's been awhile since my last recipe post! I had to dust off my camera bag (literally), and I realized that I forgot everything (what little I know) about how to use one! Nonetheless, here is my attempt to get another recipe post to you. This time it was super easy, because I didn't do the cooking and shooting. My hubby loves making chili, so I just watched (through the camera lens). It's so much easier that way! Wonder if he'll be open to the idea of making that a habit…
Here's a plus: this chili con carne is totally guilt-free! Depending on the meats you use (I used extra lean meats), you got yourself a low-carb (no beans), low-fat chili without compromising taste at all. And it's easy!
- variety of chili peppers of your choice (jalapeños, serrano peppers, Anaheim peppers, habanero if you dare, etc…)
- 1-1 1/2 lb. 95% lean ground beef
- 1-1 1/2 lb. extra lean sirloin chunks for stew
- 15 cloves of garlic
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- salt and pepper
- 4 tbsp chili powder
- 3 tbsp paprika
- 3 tbsp cayenne
- 3 tbsp cumin
- 3 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1 bottle or can dark beer
- 1 big can crushed tomatoes
- 1 small can tomato paste
- shredded low-fat cheddar cheese
- diced red or white onion
- fresh basil leaves torn (optional)
Chop chili peppers into bite-size pieces. Heat olive oil in a dutch oven or pot. Brown the beef chunks and ground beef. Season with salt and pepper. Toss in whole garlic cloves. Stir and cook for about 3 minutes. Add chopped peppers, and stir to mix. Add dry spices and beer. Stir to mix evenly. Add crushed tomatoes and tomato paste, and continue to stir. Let chili cook on very low heat for at least four hours before serving. Upon serving, top with shredded cheese and diced onions. Garnish with fresh torn basil leaves.
Pick and choose whatever peppers you fancy. We usually just buy a variety of whatever is on sale at the moment.
Chop them into pieces, not too big, not too small. No need to be pretty here.
Heat some olive oil, and brown the beef chunks. Don't forget to season with salt and pepper.
Toss in as many garlic cloves your heart desires. And my heart desires a lot. I think my hubby added more after this photo was taken.
Then add the ground beef, and cook until almost fully cooked.
Add all of your chopped peppers…
And stir everything together.
These are all the spices my hubby uses. Feel free to experiment with whatever you have. But don't blame me, if it turns out bad.
Add all your spices…
And mix, mix, mix.
Pour in any dark beer you have on hand. Please refrain from drinking it.
We initially thought that we would be using all of these. Wrong. We only used one big can of crushed tomatoes and one small can of tomato paste.
Here's the big can…
And here's the small can.
Stir, stir, stir.
Set it and forget it! For at least four hours on very low heat. The longer, the better!
Say hi to Kuma and Sibi! Play with your dogs, if you have some at home. I just realized this is Sibi's debut on the blog!
Top with shredded cheddar cheese, diced onions, and some basil garnish, if you're fancy. We only had Kraft singles, so I crumbled some. I think that gives it more of a rustic look. Serve with crackers, bread, whatever. Or go carb-free. My hubby is obsessed with this rosemary sourdough bread, so he had some of that.
*Hint: Chili always tastes better the day after when the flavors have had time to marry!
Thank you, hubby!

Ever UpHe opened the door wide on creaking hinges, letting the orange light of evening spill across the floor of the hut. The windows followed, shutters flapping open in the breeze that was just now rising over the empty prairies from the north. It blew gently through the hut as he busied himself with other matters, shuffling about on aching knees.First, he swept. A slow task with the thatch-broom that he always kept in the corner. Dust rose in little clouds as he worked, glinting in the sunlight before the wind snatched it up and away.When that was finished, he turned to the furniture. Not much: only a wooden table and chair. These he dusted, straightening the small collection of books on the tabletop, and put away the pewter dishes that lay scattered about. They would be useless to him on the journey. He smiled faintly, though, as he touched the books. They were dear to him. He would miss them.Next, he hobbled outside, leaning on a stick that he had used for many years. Rounding the hut, he made his way up the hillside behind. There, he looked upon the pens of sheep and goats that he had tended for so long. A hermit must keep himself busy, after all, and what else was there to do on the open prairie but tend the animals and read and think? What more indeed?He wheezed a bit as he stooped to lift the latch of the main pen. The gate swung open, and he tied it to a stake so it would not shut. Within, the livestock shuffled around but did not leave the safety of the pen. They held together, looking back at him with dark eyes. Sad eyes. He smiled at them, always grateful for their simple, silent company.The descent from the hill was harder in the twilight. The hut seemed grey now, thatched with colorless reeds, fluttering in the wind. He stopped when he reached the door again, looking out into the distance.South, he looked, and then west. The wind stung his eyes as he turned to the north, and he shielded them with one trembling arm. Soon, now. Soon he would go. The thought sent a shiver through his aged body, and suddenly he wept, for he was lonely. Here in the desolation of the prairie, with only the sheep and goats to keep company, he was lonely at last.He had chosen this solitary life for himself, but now…now he longed for something else. He longed for speech and company…warmth on a cold night.Soon he would go. Yes, very soon, and he was ready.His hand gripped the wooden stick tightly as he turned from the door, leaving it thrown open to the prairie and the fading sun. With faltering steps he moved towards the chair, wheezing as he lowered himself into it. He wore a weathered cloak, and on his feet were traveling boots.Now all was prepared. Yes, now was the time.The hermit lay back as the sunlight fell away, and night crept up from the west. His eyes closed……and abruptly he went out…out from the sheltered place into that greater night where there are no stars. A dry land, with dark hills rising to a darker sky…But above those hills, fitful and half-lost in the darkness, it seemed that a pale light flickered faintly.Now suddenly he started forward on strengthening limbs, casting aside the walking stick, for he may now climb those deathly hills without weariness…climbing…climbing ever up.Ever up, toward the light.
End------------Hi folks. Officially, this is an entry for the Flash Fiction Marathon, following the theme "Preparation." Unofficially, this is the first COT short story I've posted on BZP. Funny how that works. It's a sad kind of story, but not, I think, too dark in the end. I hope you enjoy. Leave a comment or critique if the desire moves you. All such things are appreciated.JRRT

Michael McDermott
Software engineer Michael "Mucko" McDermott was a strange looking man: tall, overweight with a long bushy beard and shoulder length hair. On December 26, 2000 he went into work at Edgewater Technology in Wakefield, Massachusetts, armed with an AK-47, 12 gauge shot gun and a .32 caliber pistol. There he brutally murdered seven colleagues.
When the police arrived McDermott was sitting down calmly and oddly informed them that he didn't speak German. When he came to trial in April 2002 McDermott announced that he had been born without a soul and that God had told him that he could earn one by going back in time to kill Nazi. He said he believed he was killing Adolf Hitler and six other Nazi generals when he killed his colleagues. Prosecutors produced evidence from McDermott's computer that showed he had researched how to fake mental illness. They stated that the real reason for the shooting was that McDermott was furious that the company was intending to dock his wages to back income taxes. On April 24, 2002, McDermott was convicted on seven charges of first degree murder and sentenced to seven consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole.

Not sure how I feel about this as a Kings fan. Although Richardson hasn't done much so maybe a little shake up will be good.
Originally Posted by vegasdennis: Think 2 reasons LRR Richardson has done nothing. Believe I read Gagne had played one game short of requirement to get name on cup
I think it's a 1 game thing for this reason. I think no matter how many games you play, if you play in a SC Finals game you get your name on the Cup (not 100% sure though).
And in comparison to the end of the reg season and rest of the playoffs the 4th line has been pretty quiet. Gagne has a lot of experience against the Devils and Brodeur having played in Philly and Tampa and scored his first goal as a King against the Devils in October 2011. May just be looking for more production from that line and possibly the PP.
Ya there is definately a requirement because it happened to Brian Bickell of the Hawks a couple of years ago. He is the cousin of someone I work with. I did find out that if a player doesn't meet the proper requirements the management has the last say whether the player gets his name on the cup. Bickell never met either requirement but Quenville and Bowman thought he helped the team enough that he deserved his name on it.
Originally Posted by Polar_Bear: I am a big fan of my man Gagne but I have to question the move. Tinkering with a lineup that is 14-2 is just begging for trouble. Gagne will not be in game shape and if his lack of dash allows a devils player to get a jump on him up ice for an odd man rush that leads to a winning goal, it will be this move that will have given the devils a new life and made this a series again. His timing will be off which will also open the possibility of errant passes and in general throw off the timing of his linemates. Both games so far were just one shot, give away or deflection away from going the other way. This move could create a negative of one of these as much as it could create a positive. I don't know if it's a necessary gamble. We shall see how it plays out.If it's just to get the name on the cup then why not wait until you have won 3 games? Maybe Richardson was not doing a lot but was he doing anything negative or making any mistakes/giveaways? Sometimes just not making any mistakes is a big positive itself this time of year.
Agreed. Although Gagne has been on the ice and travelling with the team since end of round 1/start of round 2. So I'm not too worried about his conditioning.
There are rumors that Richardson may be hurt/too banged up though. Who knows.

Introduction to Imagemaking
Get it free!
About this Course During this course, we'll be making exploratory images to expand your visual vocabulary. We'll create pieces that are expressive, meditative, or 'design-y' to instigate, evoke, experiment, record, explain, or to try out a media. The first two weeks are experimental and exploratory; we won't be concerned with meaning or communication (although, to be honest, every image does exist in a context, and therefore communicates—or can convey—meaning, connotation, associations, and expressiveness). In the second two weeks, we'll invite the images to deliberately and intentionally carry meaning and communication through relational moves like juxtaposition, composition, and context. Everyone has a natural, intuitive way of putting things together. We'll look at developing and expanding the range of approaches for putting things together, composing page spreads with your images. Since nothing exists without context, we look at how to intentionally drive the image's connotations, meanings and associations generated through elements of composition and "visual contrasts." through style, juxtaposition, closure and figures of speech. Ultimately, we will take the images that you create and make a book from them. Subtitles available in English 4 weeks of study, 2-4 hours/week

LilBallerx30 wrote:someone needs to tell me how to put the best possible starters on your team, as well as the whole free agent bs
You pick who you think the best starters are, but look at it, only three players on your roster will be on the bench and thus not contributing any stats on any given day. So basically all but three players on your roster will be active and getting you stats, makes it much easier.
If you see a player in free agency that you want and that you think is better than a player on your roster, you just select to add him and then a player on your roster to drop that the free agent will replace. Take into account how many players you have at each position, that is, how many Centers you have (as an example). You don't want to have too few players at any given position, as then you might get in the situation where you may not be able to fill an active roster position on a given day

While I appreciate the shout out, I'm not certain my approach is applicable to a brand new brewer.To the OP....I'm not familiar with any of the beverages you mention. If you could describe them a bit more, maybe we could figure out what you're after and how to help you.
Ciders, Fruit Ciders, Perry's and Fruit Beers are all styles of some interest here on the AHA forum. You can find some discussion on this here: https://www.homebrewersassociation.org/forum/index.php?board=31.0Welcome to the AHA Forum!
I know this isn't serious brewing, making a dark flavorful lager or anything.
It's amazing how people who "don't like dark lagers" and craft beer start to change that opinion when they start home brewing. Education is a wonderful thing.Unfortunately we live in a white bread and American cheese society. But these are all learned tastes. The good news is, you can learn how to appreciate flavor. Just gotta step out if the box a bit.


text: Hi there I've bought a cheap VPS with a single IP to test out ISP Config 3. I've installed it using http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-s...n-6.0-with-bind-dovecot-and-nginx-ispconfig-3 and I've managed to get it up and running. Is it now possible for me to have the web server, mail server and 2 name servers run off this single IP box? Also, I'm a little confused as to how the extra servers work. What I'm trying to do is have an install running off a single domain, that has ns1 and ns2 registered to it. Then I'd like to add sites to the VPS using those nameservers. Is this also possible? I think I'm a little unclear with the concept of ISPConfig 3, coming from a background of using cPanel where everything is all in one. In my defense, I'd prefer to use ISPConfig 3 for the out of the box support for nginx and php-fpm, which is fantastic! Thank you!

Is this dress black and blue or white and gold?
Since the image hit Tumblr, debate has raged throughout the Internet. Celebrities weighed in on Twitter, and articles popped up explaining the science behind what we see.
According to an Associated Press report, optometry experts are calling the photo a one-in-a-million shot that perfectly captures how people's brains perceive color and contrast in dramatically different ways.
Those who subconsciously seek detail in the dress' many horizontal black lines convert them to a golden hue, while the blue disappears into a blown-out white. Experts say the photo's exceptionally warm yellow backlighting triggers this alternative...

What does the Supporting People Programme do?
Updated: 22 Mar 2019
Share |
Supporting People funds housing related support services that a landlord (such as a housing association for example) or other provider such as a voluntary organisation can provide. Support means advice and help to make it easier for vulnerable people to maintain their independence in their home. People can receive support in a hostel or in sheltered housing or other type of supported living. Support can also be provided to people in their own homes through floating support services. This can include:
- someone to support people to manage their money and pay their bills
- a warden or scheme manager who is there in case people need help
- someone who helps people to live independently
- someone who helps people learn how to follow the rules in their tenancy agreement
- someone who provides advice or assistance on a range of housing related matters.
You can find out more:
- in our Supporting People Strategy
- information on available services, who provides them and where they are in the Public Services Directory

Within minutes of their arrival at Pimlico Race Course, Kentucky Derby winner Justify and his trainer circled the stakes barn at a rapid clip.
"He's going to wear me out!" said Bob Baffert, straining to keep a grip on the strap that kept Justify in check.
Baffert then led Justify to Stall 28, where the chestnut colt finally settled down on a rainy Wednesday afternoon.
Stall 40, located in the front corner of the stakes barn, is usually reserved for the Kentucky Derby winner. It was there for Baffert if he wanted it, but the white-haired Hall of Fame trainer opted for a cubicle that was far less obtrusive.
"We took it a few" times before, Baffert said. "But it seems to be that the horse isn't able to relax because it's right on the corner and you have lookie-loos all day long and they're snapping the click of the cameras."
Thus, Stall 28, located midway down shed row.
"It's quieter, and we want it as quiet as it can be," Baffert said.
Being at the Preakness is like coming home to Baffert, who won't shy away from the attention at Churchill Downs but really prefers less of a circus.
"I love this place. It's my favorite leg of the Triple Crown because it's a relaxed atmosphere," Baffert said. "We're all in here together in the same barn so we get to hang out together. The tension of the Derby is over. We have a Derby winner. It's a way to celebrate the Derby winner and see who gets the next leg."
Undefeated in four races, Justify may not have a lot of experience. But he's got the most important element of a great horse.
"Like that guy we heard on the newsreel about Man o' War, the essential of a good horse is speed," Baffert said. "And the main ingredient is more speed, and that's what he has. We saw that."
After spending a relaxing week-and-a-half in Louisville following his 2 ½-length win over Good Magic in the Derby, Justify was accompanied by Preakness contenders Lone Sailor and Quip on the flight to Baltimore-Washington International Airport.
Baffert and the horses then traveled to Pimlico by van with a police escort.
"He shipped really well," Baffert said. "We just walked the shed row this morning because I didn't want to do too much with him. It looks like he came off the van in great shape and he's really full of himself. So I could tell, by the way he was dragging me around there, he's on his game. That's what you want to see a few days out."
Justify will face seven challengers in his bid to win the second jewel of the Triple Crown.
Hall of Fame trainer D. Wayne Lukas has two entrants, Sporting Chance and Bravazo. He knows Baffert has the horse to beat, but he also knows that doesn't necessary guarantee victory.
"Bob Baffert and I are very close friends, but I'm going to try every way I can to beat him," Lukas said. "The only thing that worries me is he's got the best horse."Copyright 2018 The Associated Press. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed.

Modified Mustangs & FordsEvents
eBay and West Coast Customs Team Up to Honor Veterans
"The Road Home" Program Features Four Custom-Built Cars
The larger than life online auction company eBay just announced a new program called "The Road Home" in collaboration with West Coast Customs and the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA) to honor US service members ahead of Veteran's Day.
Four veterans that have overcome obstacles in their lives will be surprised with custom-built vehicles brought to life by West Coast Customs built to fit the personality and interests of each individual veteran. The base vehicles and majority of parts were sourced out through eBay, mostly using the eBay Motors mobile app. This program will also raise funds for the IAVA.
One of the four cars built for the veterans included a 1969 Ford Mustang Convertible. This special classic Mustang was influenced by the veteran's "spitfire" personality as well as her passion for the Kentucky Wildcats, and the car was given a royal blue paint job to match the team's signature colors.
Folks can now visit "The Road Home" for more information on the program and enter for a chance to win the fifth vehicle by West Coast Customs, a 2012 Chrysler 300S. Knowing West Coast Customs, you can bet that this is a one-of-a-kind Chrysler.
You can enter daily by watching the weekly, behind-the-scenes episodes from West coast Customs for a promo code, creating or updating a profile on eBay Garage or by making a donation to the IAVA. On top of that, West Coast Customs will dedicate an episode of Inside West Coast Customs to "The Road Home" revealing the vehicles to three of the veterans on a special broadcast airing Sunday, November 10th on FOX Sports Network (FSN).
Military members and their families can access discounted offers from various partners through "The Road Home." They can verify their military ID through TroopID and instantly claim offers from Under Armour, CoffeeForLess.com, Sweet Stays for Soldiers, and more.
"We are honored to work with West Coast Customs and the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America to thank these four very deserving service members and car fans in a personal way, with custom-built vehicles tailored specifically for them," said Steve Yankovich, vice president of innovation and new ventures at eBay. "The IAVA's involvement in this program helps us to extend the reach of this program beyond the four veterans being honored to recognize and support servicemen and women around the country."

U.S. stocks on Thursday were little changed, with the S&P 500 again finishing at a record high, a day after Wall Street rallied on reassurances from the Federal Reserve that interest rates would remain low as the U.S. economy continues to recover.
Thursday's modest decline can be chalked up to a round of profit taking, said Randy Frederick, managing director of active trading and derivatives at Charles Schwab: "We get one nearly every time the S&P 500 hits a new high, so it's not at all uncommon for us to see a dip every time we get to a new record."
Read MoreS&P ends at record high; Fed cuts stimulus, sees improvement
Kroger rallied after the supermarket chain posted a better-than-expected quarterly profit and hiked its outlook for full-year adjusted profit; BlackBerry surged after the smartphone maker tallied less of a first-quarter loss than analysts had expected; Red Hat gained after the provider of Linux operating-system software hiked its annual revenue outlook, and Starbucks advanced after UBS upgraded its rating on the coffee chain to buy from neutral.
After the Fed signaled it would be "supportive for a considerable period of time, we are settling back into a catalyst-light mode," said Art Hogan, chief market strategist at Wunderlich Securities, referring to Thursday's economic data as second-tier in terms of market impact.
"We continue to look for improvement, and second-quarter data, ex-housing, has been better," said Hogan.
Leading indicators were up 0.5 percent in May, versus a 0.6 percent estimate, while a separate report had the Philadelphia Federal Reserve's June business index at 14.5, down from the prior month's reading of 15.4.
And, in another illustration of an improving labor market, the government reported fewer Americans filed claims for jobless benefits last week, with applications falling by 6,000 to 312,000.

It's May!
YES darling, there is such a thing.
Tra la! It's May!
The lusty month of May!
That darling month when ev'ryone throws
Self-control away.
It's time to do
A wretched thing or two,
And try to make each precious day
One you'll always rue!
It's May! It's May!
The month of "yes you may,"
The time for ev'ry frivolous whim,
Proper or "im."
It's wild! It's gay!
A blot in ev'ry way.
The birds and bees with all of their vast
Amorous past
Gaze at the human race aghast,
The lusty month of May.

Liberty dedicates athletic training facility to deceased professor
|Jeff Taylor Sr.'s wife, Mary Clare, and son, Jeff Taylor Jr., unveil the plaque during a memorial service Friday, April 30.
Liberty University dedicated its Athletic Training Education Laboratory Friday at a memorial service for Jeffrey O. Taylor, a former assistant professor of Health Sciences and Kinesiology who was killed in a tragic baseball accident during batting practice with his son at Lynchburg College last year. Wednesday, April 28, was the first anniversary of Taylor's death.
Members of Taylor's family attended the memorial, along with Liberty University staff and administration, including Chancellor Jerry Falwell, Jr. and Vice Chancellor Ron Godwin.
Ralph Linstra, chairman and professor of the Department of Health Sciences, said the purpose of the memorial was to "celebrate life," the life of a great man who is responsible for creating Liberty's Athletic Training Program.
Taylor's favorite Bible verse, 1 Timothy 4:8, was read during the ceremony: "For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come."
At the end of the service, members of Taylor's family unveiled a commemorative plaque to mark the new laboratory.
On Friday evening, Liberty University Athletics and the LU baseball team hosted its first Jeffrey Owen Taylor Memorial Scholarship night at Worthington Stadium against Big South Conference opponent Gardner Webb. Taylor's wife, Mary Clare, threw the first pitch. A scholarship, with donations collected by members of the Lynchburg College baseball team, was presented to a senior athletic training student.

In the politics of science – especially involving the environment and its connection to the economy – nothing is as simple as it seems. That's especially true for global climate change.
On Earth Day (April 22), Transportation Secretary Mary Peters outlined a new plan requiring that the nation's fleet of new cars and trucks achieve 31.6 miles per gallon by 2015. According to the Associated Press:
"Under the plan, the fleet of new vehicles will be required to achieve 27.8 mpg by 2011, with passenger cars achieving 31.2 mpg and pickup trucks, sport utility vehicles, and vans reaching 25 mpg by that year. By 2015, the efficiency of cars will be required to meet 35.7 mpg while the fleet of trucks would need to achieve 28.6 mpg. The plan is expected to save 54.7 billion gallons of oil over the life of the new vehicles built between 2011-2015. It will add an average cost of $650 per passenger car and $979 per truck by 2015…."
With motor vehicles emitting a major portion of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases causing global warming, everyone agrees that improved CAFE (corporate average fuel economy) standards are a good thing. A Los Angeles Times story stated that:
" 'It's a good first start. The first time in many years that they've made an improvement like this,' said Jim Kliesch, senior engineer at the Union of Concerned Scientists' Clean Vehicles Program."
Dave McCurdy, President and CEO of the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers acknowledges that carmakers "have a responsibility to increase fuel economy and limit greenhouse gas emissions." In a statement, the industry trade group said:
"Automakers believe this tough, nationwide, proposed fuel economy increase will be good for both consumers and energy security. While these increases will present a challenge, it is critical that automakers and consumers have the certainty that this nationwide, 50-state fuel economy rule provides."
Environmentalists initially found themselves in the odd position of cheering the Bush administration. "But then they read the fine print," said a story in the San Francisco Chronicle:
"Tucked deep into a 417-page 'Notice of Proposed Rulemaking' was language by the Transportation Department stating that more stringent limits on tailpipe emissions embraced by California and 17 other states are 'an obstacle to the accomplishment' of the new federal standards and are 'expressly and impliedly preempted' by federal law."
In plain language, this means that California and the other states – which have faulted the administration for foot-dragging on reducing earth-warming emissions – are not allowed to set their own standards.
Obviously, this does not sit well with Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger (R) of California and his fellow governors. Under the Clean Air Act, California can adopt stricter standards by obtaining a waiver from the Environmental Protection Agency. Other states then have the choice of following California's lead.
Sixteen other states – Arizona, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Mexico, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Utah, Vermont, Washington, plus the District of Columbia – have adopted or announced their intention to adopt California's regulations. A story in the Imperial Valley (Calif.) News stated that:
" 'This fuel economy plan, while attractive on the surface, is a shameful and unlawful assault on California's landmark vehicle emissions standards,' Calif. Attorney General Jerry Brown said."
In the wake of the administration's CAFE announcement last week, the governors of a dozen states have written congressional leaders urging lawmakers to fight what they call "a cynical attempt by the US Department of Transportation (DOT) to unilaterally rewrite the Clean Air Act and claim authority over greenhouse gas emissions," as stated in a press release from Governor Schwarzenegger's office. The release continued:
"The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) argues that, because fuel economy is 'related to' greenhouse gases, the US Department of Transportation has the authority to deny state greenhouse gas regulations. NHTSA's proposal flies in the face of court rulings on existing law. The US Supreme Court found in Massachusetts v. EPA that the authority on which the states rely in regulating greenhouse gases from automobiles is 'a statutory obligation wholly independent of DOT's mandate to promote energy efficiency.' Two federal district courts have also specifically ruled that state vehicle regulations are not preempted by Congress's improvements to CAFE."
The governors also wrote the White House that "this attack completely undermines the cooperative federalism principles embodied in the Clean Air Act, and is an end run around 40 years of precedent under that law."
Meanwhile, California and the other states are following a typical political course under such circumstances: They're filing suit to force action under those earlier court decisions, including the US Supreme Court's 5-to-4 ruling a year ago that the EPA has the authority to regulate emissions from new cars and trucks under the Clean Air Act. An online report from Los Angeles radio station KCBS stated that:
" 'The EPA's failure to act in the face of these incontestable dangers is a shameful dereliction of duty,' Massachusetts Attorney General Martha Coakley said. The petition asks the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit to require the EPA to act within 60 days."
The drama over motor vehicle emissions thus continues.

Meeting Minutes
Meeting Minutes
September 22nd, 2009
Sixth meeting, 9 attendees. Started off by reconfiguring WiFi for easier access of attendees. Next 1.5 hours was a formal discussion about the direction of the space, what projects people are working on, and about continued use of Jenett's basement. At the end, Rex showed us the complete process of how he etches circuit boards, creating 6 ATiny programmer boards in the process.
Discussion points:
- We may continue using Jenett's basement for another 6 months (until Apr 2010), at that time we will re-evaluate if use of the basement is still acceptable or meeting our needs. If we have enough interest we may begin discussing becoming more formal as a group and finding a space to rent.
- If we get to a point that we have shared tools stored in the space then unattended use of the basement can be accommodated by installing an outside door lock and a door at the top of the stairs.
- All agreed that we need to have our weekly meeting even if the basement is configured to allow unattended access, a large part of this group is sharing knowledge while we are all together at the same time.
- All agreed that for now, while meeting in Jenett's basement, the space will be invite only (read: we are not advertising the group or otherwise publicly seeking more members. However, if you found us and are interested ask us if you can attend a meeting and you can probably get invited). Unattended access to the basement, if configured, would only be provided to attendees that have been to several meetings and are in good standing.
- The issue of a more formal name for our group and moving the wiki/mailing list to a new name was raised, it was decided it was not a critical issue at this point. At the 6 month mark we can revisit the issue if/when a more formal entity is started.
- Mark discussed the makerbot and how he intends to buy one in the near future; also that if we where interested he could bring it in to a meeting so we can try using it
- Round table discussion of what projects each of us wants to accomplish and what we have to offer each other
September 15th, 2009
Fifth meeting, 9 attendees. General AVR and Arduino free-for-all.
September 8th, 2009
Fourth meeting, 6 attendees. More AVR programming, discussed microcontroller projects for True Dungeon. N64 power cord repairs. Nathan setup his 5V 20A regulated power supply so each person can power their breadboard without having to find an outlet to plug-in a power brick. Uploaded more AVR code to the wiki for easy access. At 9:16pm we watched the International Space Station and the shuttle Discovery fly over Bloomington together, quite fantastic!
September 1st, 2009
Third meeting (Jenett's basement - all future meetings will be here unless otherwise specified), 9 attendees. Setup tables and chairs in the basement, moved in mini fridge from the garage. Everyone setup proto boards with AVR/ATMega chips, worked out problems with ATTiny USB programmers and avr_dude/gcc software. Uploaded AVR blinky test code to the wiki (AVR). Looked at Jupiter with Jenett's 8" telescope at the end of the evening.
August 19th, 2009
Second meeting (Max's Place), 9 attendees. Discussed what it is we want to accomplish with this group and what people want to get out of it. Agreed to meet at Jenett's house for our next meeting to learn AVR programming and discuss using her basement as a future meeting location and potential hacker space.
June 6th, 2009
First meeting (Bakehouse), 4 attendees. Discussed forming a group of people before moving forwards with the space. Also discussed having an informal "group tool sharing" program.

Why Should I Give?
Parents Fund
The Parents Fund is an important source of support for the College. With tuition only covering half of the actual cost of a CMC education, the College relies on the generous support of its alumni, parents, and friends to bridge this gap. Indeed, CMC's Parents and Alumni Funds are among the strongest of all liberal arts colleges.
Parent support is crucial to sustain the combination of programs and opportunities unique to CMC. Gifts to the Parents Fund are one of the most effective ways to maintain the value and excellence of a CMC education. The annual contributions to Parents Fund benefit CMC's most valuable assets—its students and faculty.

And guess what? Everyone who was outraged by this show is perfectly right to be outraged. I am outraged. No, actually, outrage seems a small term for what I felt while watching the shenanigans of this miserable cow Maya Khan and her motley crew of rich Defence-type airheads and gossipy burqa-clad crusaders. I felt physically nauseous. This was a new low in sensationalist television crap.
Here were a bunch of television vigilantes serving as the television arm of the Jamia Hafsa crusaders in Islamabad, the cretinous sisters of the Taliban's moral police Amar bil Maaroof, nonsensically claiming to have a "picnic" in a park while harassing poor couples whose only crime seems to be exercising their right to privacy and consensually talking to a member of the opposite sex. (Note that NONE of the couples harassed by this bunch of airhead crusaders were indulging in any act of public indecency as claimed by one man towards the end of the clip.) This is total and utter bullshit. Not only does Samaa TV's goon squad invade the privacy of people, it blatantly ignores the consequences of putting these poor people's faces on air (who knows or cares what their domestic circumstances are) and lies to them about having their mikes and cameras switched off. This is unethical behaviour beyond all limits.
But there is a bigger social issue that the likes of Maya Khan and her rabid cohorts will never understand: the rapidly diminishing public space for the less affluent sections of society. The rich have a thousand options, proverbially speaking. Where are couples who cannot afford upmarket restaurants or have access to private house parties supposed to go to just sit and talk if not places such as parks or by the sea? And the addle-headed cow who argues about unmarried couples not being allowed to see each other? Who let her out of her house to go to a salon and get on television in the first place?
Is this what we have come to with the 'freedom' of the media? A blind rush for ratings at the expense of any civic, social or even common sense? Here is a wonderful Open Letter to Maya Khan from a far more restrained Mehreen Kasana. And there is also a petition that you can sign addressed to Samaa TV CEO Zafar Siddiqui, which I would urge you all to sign. Some people have also initiated letters to the Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) asking it to take notice of this content.
However, I think this is far too little for the likes of Maya Khan and her mongrels. This kind of socially destructive vigilantism should be nipped in the bud and taken note of by the government itself. The entire crew and aunty brigade should all be charged, perhaps for taking the law into their hands, for invasion of privacy and also for sexual harrassment. A message should be sent out to ratings-hungry television channels that there are limits to what they can do.
Incidentally, it may be recalled that Samaa has caused serious damage before. Thankfully, it had sacked Meher Bokhari after her sensationalist comments about Punjab Governor Salmaan Taseer helped create the atmosphere that led to his assassination. One had hoped it had learnt its lesson. It looks like it needs a sharp reminder.

May 29–30 2010
Saturday May 29 and Sunday 30, 2010
Keynote: Let sustained effort be the seed of synthesis, the force which binds together that which has been separated.
Saturday, May 29th
1:30 pm - Afternoon Session, everyone welcome
~The Alchemy of Synthesis ~
During this round…the process of producing human radiation or "release" is being artificially stimulated through the method which we call initiation, and the short cut to intensive purification and stimulation is open to all who are willing to pass through the divine alchemical fire. Simultaneously, in the other kingdoms of nature a process somewhat similar in kind though not in degree is being attempted.
Persistent Endeavour – Panel
Visualisation followed by Group Discussion and Meditation
3.15 pm — Tea
4.00 pm
Gifts of Endurance – The Artist's Journey – Anne WoodwardIf the creative artist will ponder upon three requirements—endurance, meditation, and imagination—he will develop in himself the power to respond to the fourth rule of soul control -- the urge to creative life – and will know the soul eventually as the secret of persistence, the revealer of the rewards of contemplation and the creator of all forms upon the physical plane. Anne Woodward (stage name: Anne Haenen) is a professional singer and stage director.
Flags and Anthems – The Binding Force of Nations – Simon MarlowFlags are symbols of the devotion of a people to their national soil and to their national spiritual objectives. Behind the flag is a point of power which is the point of inspiration to the soul of the people. Equally new anthems can help bind groups and nations together in common intent expressed through the medium of sound. Simon Marlow is a professional pianist.
5.15 pm — Group Meditation
5.30 pm — Close
Sunday, May 30th
1:30 pm -- Afternoon Session, everyone welcome
~The Force Which Binds~
The Builder of the Square – Synthesis through Ceremonial Magic...the seventh ray is the ray of interlude – an interlude and a ray which becomes active when the attractive, magnetic work of the building rays is ready to precipitate into the phenomenal world and bring about—under the Law of Ritual and of Divine Ceremonial—new phases of work.
Restoring the Divine Circulatory Flow – Barbara ValocoreThe seventh ray…is the embodiment of the principle of concretion and the materialising of that which is in need of objective manifestation, through the bringing together of spirit and matter. It is here that the whole mystery of the creation and production of money lies hid. The right circulation of money is, in the last analysis, the right circulation of prana and the force that can help bind humanity into a united kingdom on the physical plane. Barbara Valocore is the President of Lifebridge Foundation.
Discussion period followed by Group meditation
3.15 pm — Tea
3.50pm — FutureFear – Living with Global and Personal Uncertainty – Dr Dina GloubermanPsychologist Dina Glouberman, author of "Life Choices, Life Changes" and "The Joy of Burnout", will be talking about "fear of the future" as a growing psychological and spiritual problem. She will show how she adapts some of the Tibetan's thoughts for the general public and demonstrate how imagery can help people apply the teachings and literally see their lives in the light of the soul.
Where Hope Springs Eternal – The Sustaining Power of Vision – Steve NationIn these times of world pain and turmoil, the power of vision is a sustaining force that permeates the work of the new group of world servers keeping the hope of a future good alive. Steve Nation is a Trustee of the Lucis Trust.
4.45 — Closing Address and meditation
5.15 pm — Close

kiranitis needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 66 designs submitted by 19 freelance designers.
Frisco Trails Montessori
We operate montessori schools and FTM is one such school (ages 1 - 10). School info is at http://www.friscotrailsmontessori.com. As described in the "About Us" section, we are committed to providing an excellent, nurturing Montessori learning environment where children can learn at their own individual pace. We believe in providing holistic environment to education - focusing on teachers, students, parents and the facility. Clean, safe and high education standards is how we execute. Unlike day cares, the focus is on education and excellence - so, we avoid loud colors such as Red, Blue, Yellow etc. The current logo which uses the pink tower of montessori is not as attractive - and we are looking for innovative graphic designers and artists who can communicate our passion for education through our brand identity. Other concepts we introduce to children is social responsibility, being green, respect for others, self confidence and aiming for excellence in what they do. We want parents to choose FTM because they feel it is a safe, loving environment where their kids can learn and develop a strong foundation for their future. More information about our facility and programs are on the website. A sister school is New Age Montessori (http://www.newagemontessori.com). We tend to use "Explore, Absorb, Evolve" as a tag line to reflect our commitment to various phases of child development
Our target market is parents of children ages 1-10 who are looking for an excellent academic and nourishing environment for their children. These parents tend to be less price sensitive, love their children and place their development above convenience. They tend to be well educated and usually in the mid to high income groups. These parents value values and are borderline elitist. Given that both parents work, they prefer institutions that have streamlined operations, are known to be operating on philosophies and generally are in tune with social and environmental responsibilities and want their children to learn all these. These parents are also looking for "premium" look-and-feel.
In addition to the parents, we need to attract good teachers - and good teachers want to work at the best institutions.
We want to develop a brand identify - with the logo and colors as the first that reflect our principles and convey this to the target audience.
- Not looking for flashy or "corporate" look and feel. Want the logo to be warm and classy. Creativity is welcome - think as a parent
- Colors: Neutral colors (e.g. green, brown) - open to other such color combinations. Do not have to use the color scheme in the website. We want to change the colors according to the logo
- Tend to use a LOT of black&white prints (e.g. class materials). Logo should therefore be good when printed in black and white.
- Plan on using the color scheme for brochures, business cards, stationery etc. - So, fewer the color combinations, the better
- Logo should be web friendly (prefer white/transparent background)
- Use very little gradients (drop shadows ok)
- Will have to develop business cards and stationery after this project based on the logo

Did Apple finally bring the hounds to the old iPhone jailbreak/unlock cat and mouse game?
Maybe. It's been over 2 months and while the miraculous iPhone DevTeam has jailbroken the iPhone 3G, unlocking the device to work on any carrier has thus far eluded them. Likewise, the brand new iPod Touch -- which might be a sign of things to come with the next iPhone as well -- has proven more resistant to Jailbreaking. Says the DevTeam:
the 3G iPhone soft unlock and iPod Touch 2G jailbreak are still relatively new challenges (compare them with the timeframe of the iPhone challenges last year). We're making slow advances on both fronts, but it's not the sort of thing that can be easily described in a blog like this. But, to maybe show how interlinked these challenges are, this weekend we'll be trying some hardware based ideas on the iPod Touch 2G jailbreak :)
It's not all doom and gloom, however, as the DevTeam also elaborates a little on iPhone 2.2 "Timberline", confirms it's still vulnerable to pwnage, and shows it running Terminal.app.

Clinical Management of the HIV-Infected Woman
A Podcast Discussion With Kimberly Smith, M.D., M.P.H., and Valerie Stone, M.D., M.P.H.
December 11, 2009
Table of Contents
Bonnie Goldman: Hello and welcome to HIV Management Today -- a new, clinical management series from TheBodyPRO.com. This podcast is entitled: "Clinical Management of the HIV-Infected Woman" and it's the second podcast in the series. I'm Bonnie Goldman, editorial director of TheBodyPRO.com.
Joining us are two of the top HIV clinician/researchers in the United States. Dr. Valerie Stone is an associate professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School and an HIV/AIDS clinician at Massachusetts General Hospital, where she was Director of the Women's HIV/AIDS Program from 2002 to 2008. Dr. Kimberly Smith is associate professor of medicine in the Department of Infectious Diseases at Rush University Medical Center and an active investigator and chair of several studies in the AIDS Clinical Trials Group. In our short discussion they will summarize the top issues in managing the care of the HIV-infected woman.
Welcome Dr. Smith and Dr. Stone. Let's start at the very beginning. Dr. Smith, I wonder if you can describe how you evaluate an HIV-infected woman's care differently from the care of a man.
Presentation to Care
Kimberly Smith: How I approach women is not hugely different than how I approach men. First, I try to get a feel for their emotional state in dealing with this disease. Most of the time, I see patients within days, or a couple of weeks, of them having gotten the diagnosis. I try to assess how they cope with the situation. I try to understand what their history is with regard to where they may have acquired HIV, and to what degree they have an idea about that. So, my first step is always to get a feel for where they are.
Once I can assess if the patients are really ready to start thinking about their HIV care, then I try to educate them about HIV. I tell them, in lay terms, what happens as a result of the virus and what we will be trying to accomplish in the first visit, which is to get an idea about whether they have any symptoms at all. Have they lost any weight? Are they having chronic diarrhea?
One of the differences with HIV-infected women is that some of the symptoms that they may have can be things like vaginal discharge, itching or a yeast infection. I try to get at those types of questions.
Then I explain to them what we're going to do from a lab standpoint: explaining to them the basics of CD4 count, the basics of viral load and then the basics of treatment.
To sum up my approach toward women at their initial visit: I try to assess first their social situation, their coping skills, whether they are symptomatic and if they have any issues that are going on at present; then I try to educate them about what we're doing today and where we're going forward. But that's not hugely different than how I approach men, except that the symptoms that may be present in women can be different than in men.
Bonnie Goldman: What kind of symptoms would be more common?
Kimberly Smith: As I mentioned, I'm mostly looking for whether they have any gynecological issues. Are they having any kind of discharge? Do they have vaginal pain, or itching? Are they having pain with sexual intercourse? Are they currently sexually active?
I try to get those kinds of questions answered pretty early on. Those are the things that are dramatically different from men, as far as the history that you take straight off the bat.
Valerie Stone: I completely agree with Dr. Smith. I would just emphasize some of the things she's said. I've found over the years that many women come to their initial appointment with set things that they want answered, that they want to get educated about. If those things aren't taken care of, the women often can feel frustrated and disappointed. Sometimes this stems from prior negative experiences with the health care system. This is true particularly for minority women, women of color.
I try to be really clear at the beginning of the appointment about what they want to accomplish in that visit. As Dr. Smith said, I also try to make clear to them the things that I think are important for us to try to accomplish in that first visit. We try to get through as much of both of those sets of goals as possible. If necessary, the full evaluation may get stretched to a second appointment so that we make sure that everything that's necessary gets done -- that not only do I get an understanding of who they are and where their disease is, but that they, also, get to take care of symptoms or concrete needs and services that they may want to take care of in those first visits.
Kimberly Smith: One of the other things that I think can be different when we're looking at men versus women is that men tend to lose weight sooner. A lot of the men that I see, even before they have progressed to more advanced disease, are losing weight. Whereas women -- particularly African-American women -- tend to not have lost weight. They may have somewhat of a change in their appetite, but they are typically still, weight-wise, doing about the same as they were. So, I don't look for weight loss as being a symptom of HIV in women as much as men.
Bonnie Goldman: Is there an understanding of the mechanisms responsible for that?
Kimberly Smith: Probably the same reasons why it's easier for men to lose weight when they are trying to. [Laughs.]

text: Brexit: Impact on aviation law Share this 24 JUN 2016 By: Tony Payne Elizabeth Warwick Vonnick Le Guillou Following the UK's vote to leave the European Union, we consider the potential implications for the aviation industry. Key issues Traffic Rights: The UK currently benefits from the internal market for air transport and from air traffic rights negotiated with third countries at an EU level - for example, the bilateral "open skies" agreement between the EU and the US, which would need to be renegotiated. Nationality of Airlines: Airlines currently owned by UK nationals may need to be restructured on a corporate and operational level in order to retain EU carrier status. Consumer Protection: Passengers' rights to compensation in connection with delayed or cancelled flights under Regulation (EC) No 261/2004 could be affected. Environment: The EU Emissions and Trading Scheme will no longer apply if the UK also leaves the EEA. However, non-EU airlines could find themselves subject to a similar regime imposed at an international level by the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO). Safety Regulations: Whilst the standards of the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) will continue to apply, the UK may lose its ability to influence the development of the EASA legal framework going forward. Even if the standards developed by EASA remain the same for aircraft certification, aircraft operations and aircraft maintenance requirements in UK, the UK entities concerned (manufacturers, operators, MROs) will be under the authority of the UK authority for civil aviation (CAA), rather than EASA. Ownership and Control Limitations: EU nationals are currently required to have majority ownership and control of EU airlines. Equivalent UK limitations could have a significant effect on the operation of certain airlines post-Brexit. Potential impact Following Brexit, the UK will be required to negotiate new air traffic rights with the remaining EU Member States, and standalone agreements with other third countries, in order to retain its current traffic rights. Whilst access to the EU's internal market for air transport could be retained by joining the European Common Aviation Area (ECAA), this depends on the UK accepting all EU aviation laws and the consent of existing EU members. UK-owned airlines wishing to retain EU carrier status or subject to new ownership or control limitations may have to undergo significant restructuring efforts involving the relocation of their head office or employees. Whilst the EU is likely to require compliance with Regulation 261/2004 for the UK to remain in the single aviation market, the UK could choose to ease some of the requirements on UK airlines, particularly on flights from the UK to other non-EU countries. Actions Clients should be aware of the implications of any revocation of the UK's air traffic rights following Brexit and the uncertainty caused by the need to negotiate new arrangements bilaterally. UK airlines which wish to retain EU carrier status following Brexit will need to adopt flexible business models and be aware of the need for potential restructurings, both at a corporate and operational level. Clients should be conscious of potential changes to rules around consumer protection, the environment and control limitations to ensure they are in compliance with any post-Brexit regulatory regime. For a more detailed analysis of the issues, please contact the authors or your usual DLA Piper contact.

iPad mini: 7.9-inch display, A5 chip, LTE optional, $329
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Apple, Handhelds
Apple has announced the long awaited iPad mini. It sports a 7.9-inch display at 1024 x 768 resolution, matching up with the iPad 2. The new iPad mini is just 7.2mm thin, and weighs in at .68 pounds. It features the same anodized edges that you'll find on the iPhone 5. On the inside you'll find the A5 processor, 5-megapixel rear camera that records in 1080p, and a FaceTime HD camera up front. With the 7.9-inch display, you get 35% more screen real estate than you'd find on the 7-inch Kindle Fire or Nexus 7 tablets, which is likely what Apple is hoping you realize since they are charging quite a bit more for the iPad mini than competing 7-inch tablets. You'll be able to get a Black & Slate or White & Silver iPad mini starting at $329 for the 16GB Wi-Fi model, and the price jumps up to $429 for 32GB, and $529 for 64GB. Want an LTE model? Those come at an extra $130, so you are looking at $459 for 16GB LTE, $559 for 32GB LTE, and $659 for 64GB LTE. You'll be able to pre-order the iPad mini beginning on October 26, and they'll be delivered (and available in stores) on November 2.

I just purchased a TX16W in what I thought was pretty good condition, but when I turn it on, it says "LOADING SYSTEM!! please wait" and below that line, "insert disk" and it freezes. I've the Typhoon 2000 OS on a floppy to update it, but no matter what disk I put in the floppy drive, it stays on that same screen. The LED next to the floppy drive flickers if a disk is in it, like its trying to do something, but to no avail.
Any help from the samplers gurus would be much appreciated, because I have no clue what to do here.

USA Philosophy Program
Philosophy is a discipline that relies upon reason, logic, and experience to formulate, analyze, and answer many of life's most important questions:
- What is ultimately real?
- What is good and right in human affairs?
- Do we really know anything? If so, how do we know?
- Are persons distinct from our physical bodies?
- Is there purpose, perhaps even meaning, to life?
The world's philosophical traditions have deep insights to offer in response to each of these questions, and the Philosophy Department at the University of South Alabama consists of knowledgeable, experienced, and friendly faculty members who love discussing and exploring these issues with interested students.
But is studying philosophy helpful to a career? Yes it is!
Below, please find our courses and major requirements. If you are interested in our program, we encourage you to visit our department and talk personally with one of our faculty members. We would love to meet you!
