The Pentagon says it has identified the remains of a long-lost Massachusetts combat veteran killed at Pearl Harbor.
The Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency said the remains of Navy Yeoman 3rd Class Edmund T. Ryan were being returned to his family in Wilbraham, Massachusetts, for burial with full military honors.
Officials said burial is scheduled for Wednesday in Arlington National Cemetery.
Ryan was 21 and assigned to the USS Oklahoma when the ship was attacked by Japanese aircraft on Dec. 7, 1941.
The Oklahoma also took multiple torpedo hits and quickly capsized. Ryan was among 429 crewmen who lost their lives.
Scientists used DNA analysis and dental records to identify the remains.

his name is Mr. Snufflecakes and he is so cool. We have done so much today it is crazy!! Here is a little bit of the fun we had. Take it away Mr. Snufflecakes...
Here he was giving me a "Thank you for picking me" cake. Oh, you're welcome Mr. Snufflecakes, you are welcome.
We had a big day planned so Mr. Snufflecakes got in a workout while I took a shower.
During my shower I remembered something and I yelled down to him to please water the plants because I usually forget. dumb me. He's very helpful around the house.
We decided to warm up with a game of tennis, I am not very good, but Mr. Snufflecakes is patient and it didn't take long until we could really get a good volley going.
Next, I took him to my favorite golf course where we hit a few balls at the driving range. We both agreed that a full game would just be to tiring since we still had a big night ahead of us.
We ended the night with some karaoke at the local hangout. He did a stellar rendition of Manic Monday by the Bangles. We had such an awesome time!
Here he was cheering me on when I got up to sing Baby's Got Her Blue Jeans On. I think I had the whole club a jumpin' with that one.
Mr. Snufflecakes and I had such an awesome day...I hope there is more to come! Let's hope the dogs don't eat him before we can go boogie boarding this summer! Owww!

Cheese is one of the several ways Luigi can earn money in Luigi's Mansion. Cheese is placed in rooms rather spontaneously. If Luigi uses his Game Boy Horror and selects the cheese, a Gold Mouse will be triggered.[1] This mouse will then appear whenever Luigi crosses a randomly selected mousehole, which will be announced by a distinct chime. Luigi can suck this mouse up for gold. This cheese appears only in the dark, and resembles a triangular prism with several holes in it.

Nepal to allow cremation of Tibetan Buddhist monk
KATMANDU, Nepal (AP) — The body of a revered Tibetan Buddhist monk can now be cremated at his monastery in the hills outside Nepal's capital, the government said Tuesday after reversing its earlier objections to bringing the body into the country.
Nepal had initially said Shamar Rinpoche's body could not enter Nepal because he was a citizen of the nearby Himalayan nation of Bhutan. Some accused the government, however, of fearing anti-China protests by Tibetans during the funeral procession, which is expected to be attended by thousands of Rinpoche's followers.
The Cabinet decided Tuesday to allow the cremation, Information Minister Minendra Risal said, out of recognition for the monk's contribution to Buddhism in the country.
Rinpoche — who has followers in Nepal, India, Bhutan and Europe — built his monastery in the hills northwest of Katmandu and preached there for several years. His followers said he wished to be cremated there.
After the 62-year-old Rinpoche died of a heart attack in Germany last month, his body was flown to India for his followers there to pay their last respects. The body has remained in Kalingpong in northeast India.
Risal said the Nepalese government's approval had been delayed until Prime Minister Sushil Koirala returned from a medical trip to the United States, where he was receiving cancer treatment.
The cremation is expected to take place Thursday.
Nepal does not allow Tibetan exiles to protest against China, and police are quick to break up any demonstrations.

- Authoritative analysis of significant recent federal and state tax changes
- A comprehensive update for Wisconsin tax professionals, featuring concise explanations, practical advice, valuable warnings, and helpful suggestions in the tradition of all Neal Schmidt's publications
by Neal E. Schmidt
2003 edition, softbound, 134 pages, $40.00
Wisconsin Estate Tax Handbook was first published in 1996 and updated in 2000. This 2003 edition completely reformats and updates the 2000 and 2002 editions. It discusses the Wisconsin estate tax and fiduciary tax and provides valuable information to tax professionals about these taxes.
This new edition of the Wisconsin Estate Tax Handbook is necessitated by the federal changes enacted in the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 (EGTRRA) effective June 7, 2001, and the Wisconsin Budget, 2001 Wisconsin Act 16, published on August 31, 2001, which will impact Wisconsin estates when death occurs on or after October 1, 2002.
Wisconsin will follow federal changes in the estate tax for deaths through September 30, 2002. Therefore, for the first nine months of 2002, Wisconsin will have an exemption equivalent of $1,000,000 and the dollar credit equivalent amount will be $345,800.
The new edition concisely explains Department of Revenue procedures and answers practical questions encountered by tax professionals working on an estate tax filing. Basic questions, such as: Who must file? When to file? and Where to file? are answered. The handbook also deals with complex problems, such as audits and appeals. Numerous examples, with completed tax forms, are provided.
Neal E. Schmidt was an attorney with the Wisconsin Department of Revenue from 1966 to 2002. He previously authored the Wisconsin Inheritance Estate and Gift Tax Handbook which was a staple in Wisconsin tax law libraries. Mr. Schmidt is a popular speaker on Wisconsin tax law and has spoken at the UW Law School's CLEW Tax Workshop for the past 32 years.
- Updated and practical information on Department of Revenue procedures and forms as of March 1, 2002
- A detailed analysis of the changes in state law regarding the taxation of irrevocable trusts
- Answers to the most commonly asked questions; solutions to common problems; advice on avoiding typical professional errors* Numerous examples; completed tax forms
- Expanded analyses, examples, and cautionary notes for tax professionals
- Updated discussions of penalties, interstate issues, tax audits, fiduciary returns, credits, and exclusions
- Federal changes enacted in 2001 that impact Wisconsin taxpayers
- Wisconsin's response to the federal changes
- Estate tax provisions of 2001 Wisconsin Act 16, the Wisconsin Budget
This handbook answers a variety of common questions by tax professionals, including the following:
- Who is liable for the estate tax?
- Who must file a Wisconsin estate tax return? What must be filed? When is the return due? When is payment due?
- How is interest computed?
- How do you report trust income after October 29, 1999? After October 1, 2002?
- What assets are subject to inclusion for determining the state death tax credit allocated to Wisconsin?
- How is the estate tax with out of state property handled? How are the apportionment issues resolved?*
- How does an estate make the election to pay the estate tax by installments?
- When should you consider overpaying the state death tax credit to Wisconsin to avoid interest being computed from the date of death at 12%?
- What audit procedures does the Wisconsin Department of Revenue use?
- What should a tax professional do when there is after discovered property in pre-1992 estates?
- Wisconsin fiduciary tax returns: Who must file? When to File?
- How is a closing certificate obtained? What is the impact of the closing certificate?
- What suggestions are there for expediting the issuance of the closing certificate?
- What appeal procedures apply to the estate tax and fiduciary tax?
The text contains numerous hypothetical tax problems. Here's one sample fact situation presented in the text:
Mr. Hector MacQueen died a resident of France on January 3, 2003. He had a grantor trust, a bank account and a brokerage account in Milwaukee which had been his residence before moving to Saint Jean Cap Ferrat in 1991. His house, contents and personal possessions in St. Jean had a value in United States' currency of $1,000,000. The total value of his intangibles in Wisconsin totaled $2,500,000. His federal gross estate was $3,500,000 with a federal taxable estate of $3,000,000. The state death tax credit before reduction would be $182,000. As death occurred in 2003, the federal state death tax credit is reduced by 50% to $91,000. With $1,000,000 of property not subject to tax in Wisconsin the percentage of state death tax credit payable to Wisconsin is $130,001. (Calculations shown in the text.)
The updated text contains numerous warnings and precautionary notes for tax professionals on such topics as: tax liability, foreign death tax payments, installment payments, refunds, overpayments, arbitration, taxation of irrevocable trusts, and the pick-up tax.

"The price of gold continues to be stuck in a narrow trading range; however, with a pickup in worldwide economic activity . . . The financially strong gold mining companies that can afford to actively explore, will be the prime beneficiaries of such a development. One favorite is Placer Dome (PDG, NYSE, around $15)," says William Baxter of World Economic Service, Greenwich, Conn.
"Earnings for 1991 are estimated at $0.40 a share. This high-quality stock is attractive for intermediate and long-term appreciation."

10 Oct Borrowing Money for an Investment Property
Posted at 02:40h in Uncategorised 0 Comments
Regardless of whether you've purchased a home before, the prospect of going deeper into debt to fund another property can be an intimidating one. Often, we look at purchasing an investment property in the same way we do any other purchase – as a transaction exchanging money for goods and services.
However, purchasing an investment property is significantly more complicated and the formula is less about spending money than it is about optimising existing resources.
If you look at your finances, including your available cash, the equity you have in your home and any existing investments you have, you will be able to come up with a figure – these are your available and potential resources.
Now, you can effectively evaluate how you are allocating those resources.
Is your cash invested effectively?
Is the equity in your home yielding any leveraged return?
Is the money allocated to your existing investments paying off?
When you adjust your thinking to defining available money as a resource to be invested, you put yourself in a position where you can be critical of your existing and potential investments. You can look at your available cash reserves and consider whether they are a sensible safety resource, or a poorly allocated potential investment.
The same is true of your borrowing potential. Of course, when deciding to enter into any investment that involves borrowing, you should consider your cash flow first – can you effectively service the loan? If the answer is yes, then you may have latent resources available to you outside of your existing reserves.
Optimising (not maximising) your borrowings, involves evaluating whether you are better off leaving those resources where they are or investing them. Neither answer is wrong of course, but doing nothing is as much a decision as doing something.
Look forward five years. Will you regret investing that money, or will you wish that you had? Will you have slept well knowing that your wealth is growing, all would you have lost sleep?
Investing isn't for everyone, and there are implications for every action you make, including a lack of action. The main thing is to make sure you are making a decision one way or the other.

Progress Report – March 2015
The month of March 2015 was fairly sparse in terms of postings as I needed to concentrate on schoolwork and wholly original works. Hence this meant I was nearly always simply adding to some preexisting works or collections.
Posted Works
So first of all, I added Report Card, The Black Widow, It's a Small Universe After All, Loss, Milk, and You Make Me Want to Scream to the G & T Show forums. Hence that site got a taste of much of my Star Trek fan fiction from outside of the Enterprise series.
Furthermore, In memory of Leonard Nimoy, I added a new Times of the HG Wells piece, Timeless. In order to respond to the monthly prompt about mentors, I added a Joss–Dr. Morgan story, Colleagues.
In addition, on Fanfiction.net, I continued to post Everybody Knows This is Nowhere.
Finally, on Wattpad, I finished posting Intolerance, and then moved onto Barely Tolerable, Pacing, The Gift, and Voice of the Common Man. I then began spinning out Together.
So please be sure to see the Stats page for individual read and review counts.
WIP Corner
I continued to work on the wholly original book, The Badge of Humanity. The end was in sight, and I was rather inspired, so a great deal of writing time and energy was devoted to that story. This gave me a great lift and a push and it really kept me going!
Prep Work
I continued working on means for getting Untrustworthy out and in front of reviewers, trading reviews with some independent authors.
This Month's Productivity Killers
School at Quinnipiac was the main issue. I had a lot to do even though the mid-semester break occurred in the middle of the month.

Some of you may not yet have realised or been notified, but your electricity charges have increased yet again. As of 1st July 2016 you are being charged more per kWh than the previous financial year.
The Most efficient way to run your AC
Are you aware that changing the temperature on your air-conditioner 1 degree can vary the energy cost 5 – 10%?
Myth Busting – "Solar Panels Produce More Carbon in Production Than They Save Over Their Lifetime."
Have you heard this myth? When it comes to discussions about solar, I'm sure we have all heard someone say this at some point. It is a well-known argument, however couldn't be further from the truth with today's technology. Fairmindedly, before PV's were mass-produced (circa 2000), the energy input to manufacture them did outweigh the electrical output in some cases.
How to get the most from your solar power system
Once you have your solar system installed it is then time to start "power tuning" your home. The aim is to reduce the consumption of power, especially after 5pm, to get maximum power bill reductions. The key processes are outlined below:\

Danbury teen serves on teen driving task force
The 16-year-old attended his first meeting of the Governor's Task Force on Teen Driving on Thursday. Gov. M. Jodi Rell declared this week as Teenage Safe Driving Awareness Week.
"The goal is to make the situation better," Simalchik said Monday. "What they are doing is great. I also believe a lot in individual responsibility, and I think parents and kids should take responsibility. But there are some things that can be changed."
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 3,406 drivers age 15 to 20 were killed in motor vehicle crashes in 2006.
An additional 4,569, including teens and other passengers in vehicles with the young drivers, and occupants of other cars, were killed in these crashes.
That means in 2006, nearly 8,000 people lost their lives in crashes involving young drivers.
"It's good to do something," Simalchik said. "People treat it (their license) like a toy. They don't think of it as a responsibility."
Simalchik said he likes the idea of graduated licenses that limit who rides with a new driver and when the new driver can drive. But he's found that students and some parents don't follow the law.
The task force will look at education for parents, too.
Another member of the task force is Sherry Chapman, representing Mourning Parents ACT Inc., which she co-founded for parents whose children were killed in teen driving accidents in Connecticut.
Members of the group will talk Dec. 20 at Abbott Technical High School in Danbury.
"Teen driving is a serious issue, and with all the accidents it's important to bring this information to our students," Abbott Tech spokeswoman Sally Markiewicz said. "We do something every year about driving. This is a perfect time, especially with the winter weather driving conditions and the holidays."
Chapman's 19-year-old son, Ryan, was killed by a teen driver in Hebron in 2002.
"What I am hoping results from the task force is to increase the awareness of the issue across the state and increase penalties for teen driving violations," she said.
Chapman said a lot of factors affect teen driving skills, including the fact that the area of the brain that controls risk doesn't mature until 25, and that teens are inexperienced drivers, easily distracted and subject to peer pressure.
"We need to teach them to drive this 3,000-pound weapon in a controlled, supervised way, subject to restrictions," Chapman said. "And if they disregard the restrictions, there should be serious consequences."
She said when parents in her group address students the talks are emotional, because the adults try to get to the kids' heads through their hearts. She's heard students say years after hearing a talk that it made a difference to them.
Drivers 16 to 17 years of age had markedly higher risks for fatal crashes than older drivers, and the numbers increased when there were passengers in the cars, according to a report of the Journal of American Medicine.
The highest death rate was observed among drivers who were 16 and carrying three or more passengers. In contrast, death rates for drivers age 30 to 59 were lower for drivers with passengers than for those without.
In addition, 16- to 19-year-old drivers are involved in nighttime fatal crashes at much higher rates than older drivers.
David Preusser, a statistician who provides information to the state and the U. S. Department of Transportation, said teen driving deaths in the last five years have declined a little, but have risen in Connecticut in the last year.
"That's obviously a problem," he said. "We don't want to tolerate it."
The task force will look at the laws now in place and how they should be strengthened -- things like longer periods of holding a learners permit, extending driving curfews, and restrictions on having passengers.
"From the teen viewpoint, they are immortal and think (an accident) would never happen to me," said Bill Seymour, spokesman for the state Department of Motor Vehicles.
"It's better for parents to act on suspicions alone. It's better to be overcontrolling rather than be cautious and wait for something to happen."

Own this phone? Submit your Review
I was using this phone for a test drive thru verizon. The phone was alright. I didn't like the down arrow key is way too close to the clear key. You would be using the down arrow key, and the hit the clear key by accident and wipe everything out and have to start all over again.
Also the text is too slow, I'm not the fastest person ,nor the slowest, but the phone's programing should be upgraded to allow you to type faster. There is a few second's delay when typing in one letter and waiting to type in the next letter. If you go too fast , it keeps repeating the same letter
And no, i don't have fat fingers either. Samsung could have designed the phone a little better.
Pros; Great size,good styling,good features, has lots of capabilities.Nice screen.
Cons; Down arrow is too close to the clear key. Texting is too slow. Short battery life.

Looking for an easy kids craft?
I was this past week, so we decided to make some Candy Bracelets.
These have been around for years, but I've always seen them as necklaces. I didn't feel like putting my kids on a sugar high with a long 'ol necklace strung with goodies, so I opted for bracelets.
The kiddos didn't know any better so they were just as happy!
These babies are so easy to do and it's something the kids will want (and are able) to help with.
– Goodies {We used Peach Rings, Gummy Lifesavers, Frosted Cheerios and Froot Loops}
– Yarn {Thank you Lion Brand!!}
1. Gather your goodies and put them in bowls.
2. Start stringing candy. I was helping my kiddos, so I couldn't help but do a pattern.
I was hoping to put in more cereal than candy – LOL!
3. Tie around your child's arm.
4. Let them have at it!
Talk about a super easy project with the kids that they enjoyed as well as myself!
I'm all about super easy and fun things to do with the kids!

text: WASHINGTON -- A new audiotape purported to be from Osama bin Laden warned that al-Qaida was preparing future terror attacks on the United States, but said they could be avoided if U.S. officials agreed to a truce that would allow Muslims to rebuild Iraq and Afghanistan. A CIA technical analysis of the tape concluded that the voice was that of the al-Qaida leader, an agency official said. The tape, the first from bin Laden in more than a year, was aired Thursday by the Al-Jazeera satellite TV channel. It appeared to have been made in early December. The message surfaced less than a week after a missile strike in Pakistan aimed at bin Laden's deputy. U.S. officials say it probably missed him, but killed several other al-Qaida operatives. Terrorism experts said the recording appeared to be aimed at reassuring al-Qaida loyalists that the network remains poised to launch attacks in the United States, while also allowing bin Laden to strike a statesmanlike pose and propose an end to violence that has killed thousands in Iraq and Afghanistan, and angered many Muslims in the Middle East. U.S. intelligence officials discounted the truce as a propaganda ploy, but said the threat of future strikes was being taken seriously. The nation's color-coded terrorist threat alert system remained unchanged Thursday at yellow, or "elevated." "Operations are in preparation and you will see them on your own ground once the preparations are finished," bin Laden said, according to transcripts of the recording made by news services. The recording did not mention specific targets or plots. Many counterterrorism officials say that al-Qaida has become a more decentralized organization since it was chased from its bases in Afghanistan after the Sept. 11 attacks, and its senior operatives were captured or killed. It is not clear how much control bin Laden has over its day-to-day operations. Vice President Dick Cheney said in a television interview on CNBC that the broadcast was a reminder that there is a "serious threat" to the United States. But he also said that the United States has shored up its defenses significantly since the Sept. 11 attacks, and that al-Qaida's failure to mount a follow-up strike is "not just dumb luck." White House press secretary Scott McClellan dismissed the idea of a truce overture from bin Laden. "We do not negotiate with terrorists," McClellan said. "We put them out of business." Bin Laden said his message was "about the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and how to end them," and went on to appeal for a break in conflicts that have claimed the lives of many Muslims as well as U.S. and allied troops. "We don't mind offering you a long-term truce on fair conditions," bin Laden said. "So both sides can enjoy security and stability under this truce so we can build Iraq and Afghanistan, which have been destroyed in this war." It did not elaborate on conditions of the proposed truce. The tape was addressed primarily to listeners in the United States. Bin Laden referred to the "repeated errors your President Bush has committed" in the administration's war on terrorism, and to polls showing rising sentiment against the war in Iraq. But terrorism experts said the message also was tailored to audiences in the Middle East. In particular, bin Laden's offer of a truce seemed designed to elevate his stature among Muslims weary of the toll of suicide bombings and other attacks. "That's a wonderful propaganda ploy," said Paul Pillar, former deputy chief of the counterterrorism center at the CIA. "He's portraying himself and his organization as a legitimate actor in international affairs." Pillar said bin Laden's claim that al-Qaida has been plotting fresh attacks in the United States "is a handy way of explaining why they haven't done more operations." In the Middle East, bin Laden's message was regarded by some as a change in approach. "This speech is a qualitative shift in bin Laden's strategy and thinking," said Mamdouh Ismail, a top criminal lawyer for Islamist militants in Egypt. "He's addressing the elite and the administration in the U.S. in a politically mature way, and throwing the ball in their court." Several experts in the Middle East and at Arabic-language newspapers in London said they thought bin Laden sounded tired or ill in the tape. Release of the message also may have been aimed at bolstering morale within al-Qaida after the Jan. 13 missile attack in Pakistan. Officials said it appears increasingly unlikely that the strike succeeded in hitting its primary target, Ayman al-Zawahri, a bin Laden lieutenant. But U.S. officials have said that several senior al-Qaida figures were killed, and Pakistani authorities have said that the terrorist network's chief bomb maker and chemical weapons expert, Abu Khabab al-Masri, may have been among them. "What's interesting is the timing of this release," said one U.S. counterterrorism official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. "For well over a year, Zawahri has been the public face of al-Qaida, doing numerous audio and video recordings." The official stressed that "it's not clear at this point what his fate was," or even whether al-Zawahri was in the vicinity when the missiles hit their target in a remote region of Pakistan.

Health Minister James Reilly has insisted changes to Ireland's strict abortion regime are aimed at clarifying existing laws.
As the first day of public hearings into the draft legislation got under way, the minister said he wanted to ensure there was no ambiguity about what it means.
"The only purpose of the legislation I will be bringing before the Houses of the Oireachtas is to clarify what is lawfully available by way of treatment in cases where there is a real and substantial threat to the life of a pregnant woman and to set out clearly to find in specific circumstances in which this treatment can be lawfully provided," Dr Reilly said.
Today is the first of three days of hearings on the legislation, the Protection of Life during Pregnancy Bill 2013, which, if enacted, will legalise abortion where there is a substantial risk to the mother's life, including the threat of suicide
Hearings at the Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children are also planned for Monday and Tuesday.
Each hearing is expected to last around ten hours.
The masters of two major maternity hospitals, Rhona Mahony, from the National Maternity Hospital at Holles Street and Sam Coulter Smith, of the Rotunda Hospital, will give evidence later today before.
The bill will legislate for the 1992 X case judgment from Ireland's Supreme Court which found abortion is legal if there is a real and substantial risk to the life of the mother, including emergency medical cases, non-emergency medical cases and the threat of suicide.
The case was taken by a 14-year-old rape victim who became pregnant and was refused permission to travel for an abortion.
As well as that judgment, the law is intended to meet requirements from a European court decision that found a woman in remission from cancer should not have been forced to travel overseas for an abortion.
The Government committed to reforming the ban on abortion by July following the death of Savita Halappanavar in a Galway hospital last year after being denied a termination during miscarriage.

Learn about…
- Your rights and responsibilities
- What support and resources are available
- How to report a Title IX concern
What is Title IX?
Title IX of the Education Amendments provides federal civil rights that prohibits sex discrimination in education programs and activities such as: Admissions or financial aid, courses and other educational activities, educational support services, employment, training, advancement and so more…Title IX states that "No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving federal financial assistance."
Title IX on a College Campus
The protection of Title IX extends to sexual harassment, sexual assault or violence that impairs or interferes with access to equitable educational and employment opportunities. Title IX is applicable to all members of the college community, including students, individuals doing business with the college, those utilizing college facilities and those who engage in volunteer activities or work activities in connection with Empire State College.
Title IX requires the college to implement current policies, coordinate training and resources and ensure effective and timely responses to complaints of sexual violence, misconduct, discrimination or harassment. The Title IX coordinator or another designated deputy works to gather information regarding concerns/complaints and provides resources that might be helpful to the party(ies) concerned and works with appropriate offices to ensure that the complainant, respondents and witnesses are treated equitably and that respectful and timely communication occurs.
What to Report?
The college is committed to ensuring a community that is safe for all who study, work and visit here. We understand it can be difficult to discuss, but notification to one of the many campus resources is critical to fulfilling our commitment to you. Sexual discrimination, harassment, assault, misconduct or violence can take many forms, including any sexual contact that lacks mutual consent. Harassment may take the form of stalking or the distribution, display or discussion of any written, graphic, visual or auditory material that is sexual in nature and has the purpose of threatening, intimidating or interfering with a person or person's ability to study or work would constitute violations of college policy, and state and federal laws, and should be reported immediately. Retaliation against anyone who reports in good faith or participates in the investigative process is prohibited and may be subject to sanctions as determined by the college. Additional information on the expectations of conduct, prohibited conduct or the Title IX reporting process can be found in the college handbook, or at www.esc.edu/affirmative-actionoffice/title-ix.
Raising Awareness and Reducing Risk
Trusting your instincts and applying common sense are important to being and feeling safe. No one has the right to harass, sexually assault, physically or psychologically abuse or stalk you. Here are some strategies to help reduce the risk.
- You have a right to set and change limits!
- Say "No." Say if firmly, without apologizing
- Understand another's right to set and change limits (No means no. Do not negotiate the limit …respect the limit)
- Try to park or walk in well-lighted, well-traveled areas, and avoid short cuts through dark, isolated areas
- Walk or travel with others when possible
- Be mindful of, or reduce the consumption of alcohol
- Always have a safe transportation plan to get home
If you have been raped or sexually assaulted or are in immediate danger, call the police at 911 immediately, and follow up with the college later.

Reduce tension by meditating, taking a walk or a bath, or taking deep breaths. T.
Positive attitude As you focus on quitting smoking and healing your body, your exercise and eating goals will become easier. Try to do at least 30 minutes of physical activities on most days, even if it is in a few shorter increments. Healthy eating Improving your eating habits gradually can help prevent weight gain, as well as help you feel better as you quit smoking. To prevent extra snacking as a result of quitting smoking, do not try to quit smoking during a stressful period. Replace smoking with other activities that occupy your hands and your mouth.
Water retention may cause a deceptive weight gain of up to 5 pounds in the week after quitting smoking, but this is not a real weight gain, and your body will go back to normal. When you quit smoking, you can breathe and get around more easily, and nutritious foods such as fruits and vegetables taste better when you are not smoking. L. Drink less caffeine; although you may think it will make you feel better, caffeine can worsen the jittery nervous feeling that may accompany nicotine withdrawal. never let yourself get too Hungry, Angry, Lonely or Tired.

The Ladies of Harley gathered with more than 40 volunteers at the Community Building in Byron Memorial Park Dec. 2 for some special work. They packed boxes with food, treats, personal items and decorations to be mailed to U.S. troops in Afghanistan, Iraq and Kuwait.
Roberta Nave, Ladies of Harley officer, said this is the fourth year the group has organized the project.
"We do this twice a year, but this is the largest shipment we have ever made, about twice what we sent last year," Nave said. "This Christmas, we 'adopted' an entire platoon, 147 soldiers, and we're making sure they all have a home-style Christmas dinner. In addition to the platoon, 19 individual soldiers will receive packages. Seven are names given to us of area soldiers. Twelve are names sent by soldiers for soldiers who would otherwise receive no mail or packages."
The Ladies of Harley make quilts and raffle them to raise funds throughout the year. The group is part of Williamsport HOG Chapter 1544, which has 325 members.

I am shifting our portfolio assets into sectors that will thrive against a backdrop of slowing GDP g...
A Brand-New MLP with Enormous Potential
02/14/2012 10:00 am EST
Focus: INCOME
The exploration and production (E&P) sector is really heating up in the US, and there are some great bargains at this point in the cycle, writes Elliott Gue of The Energy Strategist.
Closely monitoring the schedule of master limited partnerships and US oil and gas royalty trusts slated for initial public offerings can pay off handsomely for income-seeking investors.
Financial Web sites routinely miscalculate the yields offered by these securities until the fledgling stock has paid a full year of distributions. This oversight means that these high-yielding gems often don't appear on investors' radar screens for at least six months after going public.
Few investors bother to read the lengthy S-1 registration statements that sponsors file with the Securities and Exchange Commission prior to the IPO. These documents outline the MLP or royalty trust's asset base, their exposure to commodity prices, and management's assessment of how quickly the distribution will grow during the first few years as a publicly traded entity.
If you take the time to cull through these statements and identify the likely winners, you can get in before the herd notices the trust's rapidly growing quarterly payout and piles into the stock.
SandRidge Mississippian Trust II (SDR) filed its first S-1 registration statement with the SEC on January 5. Although this initial filing often lacks certain details, the document often contains enough information for you to ascertain whether the proposed IPO warrants further monitoring.
This first glimpse into the structure and growth potential of SandRidge Mississippian Trust II, a spin-off of independent producer SandRidge Energy (SD), suggests that the latest offering could be a winner—provided that the price is right.
SandRidge Energy's first royalty trust, SandRidge Mississippian Trust I (SDT), amended its S-1 form six times during the three months that transpired between the initial filing and the security's first day of trading. Based on this precedent, SandRidge Mississippian Trust II's IPO would likely occur in April.
SandRidge Mississippian Trust II represents a royalty interest in a series of existing and planned oil and gas wells in northern Oklahoma and southern Kansas. The 81,200 gross acres covered by the royalty interest, or area of mutual interest (AMI), are located in the Anadarko Basin, a mature oil- and gas-producing region where SandRidge Energy has amassed 1.5 million net acres.
These royalties entitle unitholders to 80% of the proceeds from 67 existing wells within the AMI and 70% of the proceeds generated by 206 developmental wells that SandRidge Energy will drill before the end of 2015. These wells will target the Mississippian formation, an oil-bearing deposit that's been in production since the 1940s.
Decades' worth of geologic data and production records dramatically reduce drilling risk in the region. Much like the Permian Basin of south Texas, portions of the Anadarko Basin have recently enjoyed a renaissance, thanks to hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling.
Directional drilling enables producers to target a field's most productive portions by carving out a well that branches off horizontally from the vertical shaft. Fracturing, or stimulation, increases the permeability of the reservoir rock, allowing natural gas to flow from the reserve rock into the well. This process involves pumping large quantities of water and a small percentage of chemicals into the rock formation at high pressure, producing a network of cracks.
Producers have drilled about 400 horizontal wells targeting the Anadarko's Mississippian formation since 2007. With 19 horizontal drilling rigs, SandRidge Energy is one of the play's most active operators.
Although crude oil accounts for slightly more than half the output from the AMI, elevated oil prices and depressed natural gas prices should ensure that more than three-quarters of the trust's total revenue will come from oil sales.
SandRidge Mississippian Trust II won't be responsible for the costs associated with drilling the 206 developmental wells outlined in the S-1 registration statement, though the trust will pay its share of post-production expenses. Investors will receive virtually all revenue net of expenses in a quarterly distribution.
The trust will disburse these payouts about 60 days after the end of each quarter. Unitholders will likely receive their distributions at the end of February, May, August, and November.
The trust officially launched on January 1, and will disburse its first payout (covering royalties from January and February) on May 30. Future distributions will cover three-month periods. Investors should note that the quarterly payouts will vary based on prevailing commodity prices, though SandRidge Mississippian Trust II will include two features that mitigate the effect any fluctuation in oil and gas prices have on the trust's cash flow.
First, SandRidge Energy will hedge a portion of the trust's oil and gas output. Amendments to the trust's initial S-1 filing should outline the extent to which these hedges will cover estimated production, the commodity prices locked in by these hedges, and when these contracts will expire.
And SandRidge Mississippian Trust II's targeted distributions reflect oil prices that average $102.50 per barrel in 2012, $99 per barrel in 2013, and $95 per barrel in 2014. This forecast calls for oil to trade for less than $120 per barrel throughout the next 20 years—an extraordinarily cautious outlook. I expect oil to eclipse $120 per barrel with increasing frequency in coming years.
Two, the short distribution history of SandRidge Mississippian Trust I suggests that SandRidge Mississippian Trust II's targeted distributions will prove somewhat conservative.
Based on the current distribution estimates and the yields of other, similar trusts, I would regard SandRidge Mississippian Trust II as a buy under $24 per unit and a steal at less than $20.50 per unit.

Laban, Rudolf von
Laban, Rudolf von fôn läb´än [key], 1879–1958, Slovakian dancer, choreographer, and dance theorist. After studying in Paris and performing in N Africa, Germany, and Austria, he founded (1910) a dance school in Munich Mary Wigman was one of his early students. He founded schools bearing his name all over Europe during the 1920s. In 1930 he was appointed director of the Allied State Theaters in Berlin, but was forced to leave after the Nazis came to power. In 1938, he emigrated to England, where he established (1946) the Art of Movement Studio in Manchester. There, he worked until his death on his system of notation, known as Kinetographic Laban or Labanotation, which evolved from a system of dance notation to a method of recording all body movement. It is so accurate that the system is now used to copyright dance scripts and to analyze movements in sports and industry. His work has been continued at the Dance Notation Bureau, in New York City. His writings include The Mastery of Movement on the Stage (1950), Principles of Dance and Movement Notation (1956), Effort: Economy in Body Movement (with F. C. Lawrence, 1974) A Life For Dance (1975).

One of the first questions George Plaster asked me when I told him I won All-Star Game tickets was "Are you going to sell them?" He was half-kidding, but my response was simple: "Hell no."
As a kid growing up in Cincinnati, baseball was my passion. Sure, I loved other sports, too, but baseball was my true love – whether it was doing my best Hamilton Porter impression as the chubby catcher on my Knothole team, or simply going to Reds games with my dad.
There was always a particular baseball event I loved watching as a kid: The MLB All-Star Game. And Tuesday night in Cincinnati – 20 years after playing imaginary baseball in the backyard; voicing games as if I was Marty Brennaman – I was a kid again.
The funny thing is I had no intentions of attending the All-Star Game a little over 48 hours before first pitch.
Tickets were too expensive; and as a sports radio producer in the heart of SEC Country, there was a certain event in Birmingham that was kind of a big deal. As disappointed as I was, I accepted the fact I wasn't going to be there for an event I had always wanted to attend in my hometown.
Apparently, though, I had entered the Reds' "All-Star Sweepstakes" by voting online. And Sunday night, I received an email from the Reds saying I won the grand prize of two tickets to the 2015 MLB All-Star Game.
"Are you (expletive) kidding me?!"
After pulling some strings at work, I was on my way to the All-Star Game for a one-day trip to the Queen City with a good friend of mine. We left Nashville at 9 AM Tuesday … and arrived back at 3 AM Wednesday!
On the drive up to Cincinnati, it still hadn't set in we were going to the All-Star Game. But when we approached the stadium, the magnitude set in: Streets blocked off, vendors set up on the sidewalks, a sea of red filling The Banks district, a palpable buzz in the air … at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, five hours before first pitch.
It all felt real while watching batting practice from the left field seats. Not only was it seeing Clayton Kershaw interacting with fans or former pitching great Pedro Martinez laughing it up with old friends, but it also felt real by just looking around the section we were standing in. My friend and I were surrounded by a dad and a son who were Giants fans; a husband and a wife who were Cubs fans; an Angels and a Cardinals fan standing next to each other while donning fake Chinese jerseys of Mike Trout and Michael Wacha, respectively.
Yep. This was the MLB All-Star Game.
It's an event that has admittedly become stale in recent years. In my opinion, it shouldn't count for anything. The Home Run Derby hadn't been the same, for the most part, since Mark McGwire launched homer after homer over the Green Monster in 1999. Still the best All-Star Game presentation of the four major sports, but just not the same.
However, the Reds hit it out of the park – literally. Todd Frazier winning the Home Run Derby in front of his home fans, coupled with the awesome new Derby format, couldn't have been scripted any better. Like they always do, the Reds did a great job mixing the franchise's history with the game's stars of the present.
Cincinnati is a true baseball town, and it couldn't have been more obvious on one the biggest stages in sports.
Tuesday's pregame ceremony was second to none. As a lifelong diehard Reds fan, the Franchise Four introduction of Johnny Bench, Barry Larkin, Joe Morgan and Pete Rose was amazing. The usual player-by-player introductions, national anthem and spine-tingling flyover I enamored over as a kid were cool to see take place in that ballpark. And watching Sandy Koufax throw the ceremonial first pitch to Johnny Bench was as good as it gets.
The game itself didn't disappoint, either. But 20 years from now, I'm not going to remember Mike Trout's leadoff homer or Jose Iglesias' unreal defensive play late in the game or the AL getting the best of the NL (again). It all felt secondary to the event as a whole.
I'll remember being a kid again at the event I loved 20 years ago, in the city I will always call home. I'll remember being in awe of greatness when Bench, Koufax, Hank Aaron and Willie Mays were honored as baseball's Greatest Living Players. I'll remember enjoying a cold one before the game at a nearby, standing-room-only bar alongside baseball fans from every walk of life.
I'll remember it being one of the best baseball experiences of my life.

Bullz-Eye.com reviews the 2011 Dodge Durango!
The Dodge Durango is back as a 2011 model after being sidelined for a short time, and I had the opportunity to test drive the new SUV in the beautiful setting of the San Francisco bay area. While Dodge retained essential elements like three rows of seating and towing capacity in this third generation of the Durango, the new version sports sleek styling and an improved driving experience that should broaden the appeal of the vehicle.
The older Durangos looked and felt like trucks, offering a very practical option to drivers with large families or an active lifestyle. With its towing capacity, it's always been a great option for boaters or campers. None of that has changed, but the driving experience has been made much more comfortable with the improved interior and the much-improved ride and handling. I drove the vehicle around the picturesque winding roads near San Francisco and came away very impressed. It's amazing how far SUVs, and now large SUVs, have come in recent years. While the ride won't necessarily match that of some of the newer crossovers, it's close enough where the Durango should get serious consideration by large families in the suburbs as well.


text: I've been trying to figure out a way to make todos (reminders) that recur every day (or week). iCal doesn't have this functionality built in, but it seems possible with AppleScript. The problem is, I am clueless when it comes to AppleScript and I can't get anything to work beyond very simple commands. If someone has done this, I would be delighted to see the code. I do have some programming experience (mostly C++), so I'm sure if I saw it I would understand it right away. I'll say the task seems very simple if I can figure out how to access the data and actions in iCal. Here's some pseudo code for what I'd do: Code: if(time = 00:00) { for(each reminder that I want to recur) { for(each reminder in iCal) { if(name of reminder I want to recur = name of reminder in iCal) break make the reminder I want to recur } } } Can anyone help me translate this into AppleScript? Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,
I have my PIP assessment next week and just wondered if anyone here has been successful in their claim?
I have had lots of health issues (endo, adhesions, dermoid cysts, 5 surgeries) that has left me with chronic pain in my pelvis where my cyst was on the right ovary and pain running down the front of my leg that spreads out to my hip and across my lower back. I have seen a pain consultant who says I have neuropathic genito-femoral nerve pain (I actually think there are more nerves involved than this and have also been told ilioinguinal and obturator). I am also waiting for an appointment with a rheumatologist for possible arthritis as I have joint pain too.
All of this makes it difficult to walk and I take pain meds daily (tramadol and solpadol and amitriptyline).
I have looked at the descriptors for PIP an it seems that it all depends how far they believe I can walk (20,50 or 200 metres). I am in pain without moving in the morning and walking worsens that pain so I think I satisfy the criteria that I couldn't repeatedly walk without causing severe pain and fatigue.
I am basically at home most of the time unless my partner drives at the weekend and then I maybe walk a little (200 metres) but before sitting down but I couldnt do this everyday (or more than 50% of the time). I tend to use taxis or have lifts. I can't even take my daughter to school, someone does it for me and I have an electric bike to take her on days if I feel up to it.
Do pain meds count as an "aid" when walking? Could they say "well you could use your bike to go more than 200m so you don't qualify"!!
Is anyone here similar to me? Does anyone know anyone who has succeeded in a claim?
I know all I can do is tell the truth and hope they believe me but it would be good to here if there are any positive stories

Breaking News
Tony Hawk is sorry ... he's sorry that some people were actually STUPID ENOUGH to believe his obviously phony hoverboard commercial was real.
Of course, hours after the video was released, it was exposed as a gag clip for 'FunnyOrDie.com" -- but apparently, not everyone was hip to the hoax.
"I wanna apologize for the hoverboard prank," Hawk said in a new video ... "I thought it was obvious it was fake but a lot of people believed it."
In related news ... the flux capacitor is also bulls**t.

Behind the Blog
December 29, 2005
A great feature from Christy at Behind the Jersey. This week, she talks to David Johnson at Hockeyanalysis.com.
Johnson's thoughts on Yzerman and Lemioux's decisions to bypass the Olympic tournament:
"I think it was a very honourable move. Both could see that they couldn't contribute at the levels they one did so they bowed out to let a new generation of Canadian hockey players take the next step. It's quite a contrast to Jeremy Roenick."
Who said this?

"If I don't stay in the newspapers, how else am I going to get all the pretty girls?"

Legace headed to GR
December 29, 2005
Freep reporting that Manny Legace's headed to Grand Rapids for conditioning stint.
Should be interesting to see just how Legace reacts to Osgood taking over the starting role. Things have been tensely quiet the last few weeks, with each goalie carefully stating to the media how much each would like to be the starter.
Not exactly the love-fest we saw/read/heard of in September. I don't see a Hasek/Cujo situation, but…
Spector's back to his
December 29, 2005
prolific old self after the trading freeze. Trade rumors today are filled with interesting possibilities. None specifically mention the Wings, but this comment did stand out:
I'm sure Keenan has probably fielded some inquiries about Luongo but let's face it, he's not going to move him if he can't get a strong return, which includes a comparable goaltender.
"Comparable" is a pretty broad term. So, let's take a look at one of our goalies, perhaps the one with the big mouth and cranky knees.
Luongo: 3.12 GAA and a .914 save percentage.
Legace: 2.21 and .914
Seems comparable enough. So much so that we've all been making similar "comparisons" for weeks now, months even. From MLive forum poster, Ilovewings last week:
"Babcock coached Luongo so he knows his abilities but alot of teams will be knocking at florida's door."
The thought that Mike Keenan doesn't have Luongo on the market is only reasonable if you add "yet" to that idea. When the market is right, he'll deal him, as long as the deal is right for him. Luongo is a commodity that can shape the future of a franchise, and would command much more than just Legace–or Osgood, for the sake of discussion.
I would guess that if Luongo's the asking price there are only two Wings Holland wouldn't send to Miami–Zetterberg and Lidstrom, and the latter would be an admittedly tough choice to make.
Luongo's going somewhere. My guess would be Colorado only because LaCroissant has the track record. Throw in the fact that he must sense his reputation as a master dealer has lost a little luster and he must be starving–so to speak–to make that deal.
Resilient Osgood
December 29, 2005
Apt description of the Wings current starting goaltender from Andrews Stars Page.
"I've always like Osgood because he is resilient. People can laugh about that Game 5 Jamie Langenbrunner goal in the 1998 Conference Finals, but Osgood bounced back and pitched a shutout in Game 6 to clinch the series and then went on to win a Stanley Cup."
Wings fans are most definitely split. Perhaps no subject in the last five years has earned the volume of discussion Chris Osgood prompts. Furious 13, from the Detroit News Wings Forum:
"All the bashers complain he is inconsistant and hasn;t "stolen" a game for us. Guess what? He stole that game for us against Dallas with his play in the 1st period. A lesser goalie would have let 3 or 4 of those in and who could blaim him when Dallas has 13 shots, 11 of which were quality scoring chances."
Completely agree. I've been waiting for months to see if one of our goalies would steal a game and that's exactly what he did. Ozzie supporters will say he's been heading toward this type of performance his last several starts. Detractors will say it's the same old mercurial Ozzie and that he owns Dallas, anyway.
Furious 13 went on to make this comparison:
"Oh and stats are real nice to look at for judging goalies. but seriously only one stat really matters; wins. And Ozzy is now 11-3-3. Yup that sure is inconsistancy at it's finest. That's a .647 winning percentage. Luongo-.382, Brodeur-.448, Belfour-.536, Joseph-.555. Legace-.684. I'd say we have 2 pretty consistant goalies in the stat that matters most."
Sorry, bud. Gotta disagree on that one. Luongo, Brodeur and probably Belfour would all have significantly higher winning percentages playing for the Wings so those numbers are skewed a bit.
Chuck Carlton still the best
December 29, 2005
beat writer as far as the Wings are concerned. Prior to taking the job with the Dallas Morning News, he held the same job with MLive. He left in '98 and took an immense amount of knowledge and ability with him. In today's game story, he was blunt in his assessment that the Stars may be an elite team, but still lagging behind the Wings.
"To be Stanley Cup contenders again, the Stars are going to have to learn to beat Detroit – again.
The visiting Red Wings' 4-1 victory Tuesday night illustrated plainly the difference between the teams, the winningest regular-season clubs since 1996. "
Great quote from Modano, that re-affirms what we've known for ten years–that the Wings are NOT the Yankees of the NHL, but rather a team benefiting from astute scouting and foresight.
"I don't know," he said. "They keep on breeding younger guys. They come up and fill in for guys who left. They have guys who you never heard of until they get to Detroit and then play well."
Kevin Allen on all things NHL
December 29, 2005
Of the two consistent contributors to USA Today's hockey section, Allen is the one I find to be credible. The other, Ted Montgomery, is a joke. He's the guy at the bar who will play devil's advocate just to see your reaction, and hope that he's right so that his well-formulated prediction looks genius in the slim chance that it actually bears fruit. More on Teddy when the opportunities present themselves.
Now..on to his qualified counterpart. In Allen's most recent chat he made some interesting points. Responding to a question about young Swede Nils Backstrom and where he may end up in the NHL, Kevin said Hockeytown would be a comfortable spot for him:
"Most scouts like his total package of talent, although they still wish he was a bit bigger. But that's less of a factor in today's game. He could be a good fit for the Detroit Red Wings, who seem to like Swedish players quite a bit, or Vancouver. Both of those teams will be picking late. "
Heck yes, I say. Make it 8. The Wings have evolved from the Russian 5 to the Swedish 7 without missing a beat. Heck, our best scouts where Samuellson was concerned were the Swedes themselves.
Allen was also asked whether he believes the Wings will be active as the deadline approaches. That's the question we'd all love answered. But consider the last time Ken Holland tipped his hand. I know I can't remember. Do we need defensemen? Yes. Even with Kronwall back? Yes.
Great player and an all star for years to come, but more experience and a bit more grit–intelligent, but violent, grit–on the blue line this Spring would be nice. Brendan Witt, meet Kenny Holland. And vice-versa. Every year the last five seasons I've been hoping for a deal to bring Bob Boughner to Detroit at the deadline. Witt's my new Boughner.
"Too early for rumors about the Red Wings. They will probably have some money to spend at the trade deadline, presuming that Jiri Fischer isn't coming back this season."
Kevin said a deal for a goalie isn't out of the question…we know, we know. It's NEVER out of the question in Detroit. He also made a more perceptive point regarding the Wings' strength down the middle.
"The Red Wings seem to have a crowd at center with Datsyuk, Lang, Zetterberg, Kris Draper, etc. The Red Wings may like Michigan native Weight, but another center doesn't help much."
Ahhhh….Weight would be nice, but unnecessary in my opinion. If Holland makes a move, let it be on the back end. If you look at our centers it's hard to find a team out there stronger than Detroit at that position already.
Motormouth at it again
December 28, 2005
…and this time it appears to be irritating his coach. Manny Legace, the NHL player of the month for October–and informal mouth that wouldn't stop roaring during the lockout–is claiming he's ready for action.
"Really close," Legace said. "After a good week of practice with the guys, I should get it going for (Saturday)."
Naturally, that's news to his coach. Mike Babcock, proving to be more of a Bowman disciple every day:
"Manny hasn't broke that news to me. I'm glad he let you guys (media) know first," Babcock said. "So when he lets me know, then I can talk about it."
IWO: Legace had already earned a prominent place in Babcock's doghouse by running his mouth about lying to the trainer and coaching staff about the condition of his original injury. He's probably found a home there after this one. Babcock pulls no punches, apparently. Babcock, already the longest tenured current coach in Detroit, has no problem pointing fingers through the media if he sees fit. He's also quick with the praise.
Inaugural post
December 28, 2005
Welcome to Hockeytown South, a location to receive up-to-date information on your Detroit Red Wings. This will also be a prime spot to find links to hockey and Red Wing-specific blogs.
The goal here will be to do what the Michigan mainstream media slugs have refused to accomplish: provide comprehensive opinions of the Wings, by fans, media members and other bloggers.
The plan, tentative–as I try to figure this site out–is to highlight Red Wing stories, mentions in blogs and even posts on various message boards.
Thanks for reading and showing patience as we develop.

Trying out big school - Transition WEEK starts tomorrow!
Ten things we know about Big School, before Transition Week:
- Transition week is yes, a week! Most other get two days. We get a week! That's a week of him coming home earlier than me...
- They advise taking a packed lunch for the first day, but afterwards, it's £3.50 on average per day for a hot lunch. This is going to cost me a fortune!
- They have two lunch "hours" of 25 minutes, he can eat at either. Both more like, if he realises he can do it.
- He's going to get homework this week. (Ha ha ha ha ha ha.)
- They already know the details of the detentions and bookings. We have been told (by him) to not expect him NOT to get any detentions.
- But he doesn't want isolation, that sounds awful. (Good.)
- He can wear any shoes this week, but in September, he has to wear all black shoes. Yes he's already asked me for a certain pair. No I can't remember the name.
- He's outraged he can't wear shorts to secondary, but he is able to this week. (Good cos his long trousers probably don't fit him any longer!)
- What he doesn't realise is that at another secondary, the year 6s going up in their shorts for transition days are mercilessly teased by the year 7s (obviously a rite of passage) - I wonder if they do that at his school? (Bah ha ha.)
- He's sort of excited. I think that means he's bricking it but can't under any circumstances let on. Watch this space.

I love the mug because of the photo, the color I chose and the mug size. The only negatives are that while I knew the photo was small, it's a little too narrow. I have a Marilyn mug that I did not buy online, and it spans the entire mug as two copycat photos. Also, the inside of the mug is not smooth as most mugs are. Otherwise, it's fine, as is its price.

Speaker Name:
Speaker Institution:
Stemina Biomarker Discovery through its neurological disorders division, NeuroPointDX, is conducting the largest clinical study of the metabolism with children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) ever conducted. ASD is highly heterogeneous syndrome which has never before been subtyped based on metabolism. The 1,000 subject Children's Autism Metabolome Project (CAMP study) is designed to validate a panel of metabolic subtypes of ASD and other neurodevelopmental disorders to allow earlier diagnosis and more precise treatment based on the child's metabolism. Children's plasma samples are analyzed using multiple metabolomic platforms yielding complex and noisy data. The number of metabolic subtypes is unknown making existing clustering analysis techniques difficult to use. Computational biologists and bioinformatics professionals at Stemina have developed new and novel tools to identify important differences in metabolism between children across a spectrum of neurodevelopmental disorders such as ASD and typically developing children. These differences are then utilized to develop quantitative metabolite based diagnostic tests based on changes in metabolism.
Brief Bio:
Dr. Alan Smith is the Associate Director of Computational Biology. His expertise is in the areas of experimental design, data analysis, and bioinformatics to identify metabolic signatures and generate predictive models. Dr. Smith was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in Dr. Gabriela Cezar's laboratory where he developed laboratory methods for metabolomics of cell culture and tissue based experiments, as well as a metabolomics data analysis pipeline that are the foundation of Stemina's metabolomics platform. Dr. Smith completed his Bachelor's and Master's Degrees in Biology at Purdue University and received his Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in Plant Breeding and Plant Genetics. His expertise is in epigenetics, metabolomics, and computational biology.

The latest James Bond film Skyfall marks the last Bond movie for the series' veteran screenwriting team of Neal Purvis and Robert Wade. The duo's Bond film debut was The World is Not Enough and they then worked on Pierce Brosnan's last Bond film, Die Another Day, as well as all three Daniel Craig entries.
Purvis and Wade made the announcement while appearing at the Doha Tribeca Film Festival. "We're very happy to have done five Bond movies, I think we've gotten it to a good place," Wade told The Hollywood Reporter. "I know that John Logan and Sam Mendes [Skyfall's co-screenwriter and director, respectively] have come up with a plot for another one, which takes the pressure off, because these films take up a lot of time."
Meanwhile, MI-6 reports that Sony Pictures has launched their "For Your Consideration" Oscar campaign for Skyfall, pushing the film in the categories of best picture, best director, best adapted screenplay, best actor (Daniel Craig), best supporting actor (Javier Bardem, Ralph Fiennes, Albert Finney, Ben Whishaw), best supporting actress (Judi Dench, Naomie Harris, Berenice Marlohe), best cinematography (Roger Deakins), best film editing, best art direction, best costume design, best makeup, best sound mixing, best sound editing, best visual effects, best original score, and best original song (Adele, which seems the most contender to actually land an Oscar nomination let alone a win).
