US govt to NY judge: Jail Madoff without bailNot only should this cretin be jailed ASAP for violating bail, they may as well just throw away the key.
Prosecutors on Monday said disgraced financier Bernard Madoff violated bail conditions by mailing about $1 million worth of jewelry and other assets to relatives and should be jailed without bail.
"The defendant's recent actions amount to obstruction of justice," Assistant U.S. Attorney Marc Litt told a judge at a hearing in federal court in Manhattan.
Madoff's lawyer, Ira Sorkin, described the items as heirlooms that included cufflinks and antique watches. He said they were not significant assets. The items were sent to Madoff's children and to unidentified friends vacationing in Florida.

According to Punch, Bush-Alebiosu listed Germany, Norway, France and Denmark among some of the countries that had banned the sale of the drinks in their jurisdiction "as a result of health risks caused by the consumption of energy drinks, including reported cases of deaths."
He said that research conducted by the Cardiovascular Research Centre at the Royal Adeliade Hospital and Adeliade University in Southern Australia reveals a link between students consuming a particular brand of energy drink and the unstable state of their hearts.
Bush-Alebiosu added that many brands of the drinks had flooded the country, as consumers were also mixing them with alcoholic drinks. The drinks are now first choice beverages among young people, especially on campuses, bars, clubs and social functions across the country.
He said, "These drinks are being mixed with alcoholic drinks and become more deadly as they tend to mask the level of intoxication already settled in the bodies of the consumers of this mixture, thereby allowing young adults to consume much more alcohol than normal, which often times lead to young people passing out after such in-take and also an increase in road accidents involving such people."
The lawmaker raised some pertinent points here. What are your thoughts on the sale and consumption of energy drinks and the move by the House of Reps to ban its sale and importation in Nigeria? Is this a good step?

College Survival Guide/Preparing for College
Knowing how college works ahead of time will lead to great success. The more prepared one is for college, the more likely he or she is going to succeed.
What is College like?[edit]
College is a place of confusion. If you don't have parents or siblings with a PhD or other degree, many of your decisions are going to be out in the dark. Even if you do, they may have been out of the "system" so long that they have forgotten how it works. When going into college the first time, being misguided often happens. Many people keep quiet about the truth of college. To keep quiet will only keep people nescient. The choices to make, actions to take, and the many habits one must break are often not known. College is place for those who want a higher education or who want to obtain a certain profession.
College can be seen as a different world in its own. For those who are academically rigorous, they may not get outside often enough. Sometimes friendships are put on hold with people to finish an assignment. To compensate for these effects of college, many join a school club.
It is often said the food around a college is not great at all. People are sometimes left with the choice of having a coffee and donut. Other times, people will have to eat pizza (which is very common) but will get sick after eating pizza everyday for a few months. If not pizza, then a very expensive meal costing way above normal could be a healthy choice. The smart choice is to make a meal yourself.
Malnutrition and antisocial behavior is common at college, despite the vision media gives it. Many scientific and sociological studies conclude that college students aren't eating properly. Malnutrition is one of the worst things for the brain when acquiring knowledge and using it.
The professors at college are not to be called teachers. There is a general misconception that professors are teachers. No; a professor is an expert in his or her field of study. Professors in many college and university institutions do not need to pass a teaching course or exam.
Professors are not teachers; however, they try to teach material. This is where college is different than high school (secondary education) in North America. In North America, teachers-to-be must pass exams and courses to become a certified teacher. In college, however, there are no exams or courses needed to teach someone. There is a prerequisite that people hold a Master's Degree or higher to "teach" in post-secondary education.
Many academic students frown upon this as college is a learning environment. Sadly, it is a place where people show their skills in a study, more than they learn. Sometimes, there are professors that will actually teach more than make someone do hard work. To compensate for the good and the bad, one must learn to adjust to prepare for the paradox of college.
Choosing a School[edit]
External links[edit]
- What is a good school?
- College and University Info Lots of Free Information and Resources on College and University
The Entrance Exam[edit]
The exams usually focus on your Literature and Science skills. Some tests focus on your English and Math skills. Some tests focus on foreign language skills. Either way, a person will take an entrance exam test. What a person should do is before taking the exam, learn as much as he or she can about it. Some colleges only allow a person to take the exam twice. This is why learning about the test is important. Study and review some of the math you already know for about five days.
After taking the exam, if a person doesn't do as well as he or she hoped the first time, then he or she could try again. However, some people believe the entrance exam is how colleges make their money. Students who have a high level of math understanding will often be placed down to a lesser math level. Even though the student may know the math, the exam scores may say a person must take "Intermediate Algebra and Geometry".
Some people will try to study the course material by getting a few books, studying them, and retesting. Being that the author has tried this, long ago, the author recommends you try to learn everything in the course book in 16 days. After 16 days, take the test and try to test out. If you can't, just take the course. Although, many people despise this exam system, is better to take the course and get over with it than wasting three months studying the book, taking the test, and again, not passing. Summer courses often last about one month, and if a person already knows the material, and he or she really does know the material, he or she should be able to pass the course easily. It's better to take a course and be over with it than to try and beat the system. Remember, 16 days of full devotion.
Picking your Major and Minor[edit]
What is a major?
A major is the type of career you want to obtain. You are largely focusing on certain types of courses so you can get that career. The majority of courses in your course schedule are going to help you get that career.
What is a minor?
If you find out years later you don't like your major, you could switch to your minor. A minor is the type of career you want to fall back on. You are slightly focusing on certain types of courses as a fall-back career. The minority of courses in your course schedule will lead you towards that fall-back career.
Talking to a Counselor[edit]
When talking to a counselor, a person needs to know his or her long-term and short-term goals.
Questions to ask yourself:
- 1. What do I want for a career?
- 2. How much do I really know about the career?
- 3. Have I researched the career in depth?
- 4. What type of things does a person in that career field know?
- Psychology? Sociology? Chemistry? Physics? Biology? Other?
- 5. What courses do I need to take to get that career?
Number five becomes the most important question once you understand what type of career you want. This will be one of the questions you will focus on when talking to a counselor. Write the question down to ask later.
More questions to ask:
- 6. Do the courses I take here for that career—transfer to a different school?
- 7. What school do I want to transfer to?
- 8. What courses transfer to that school?
Oftentimes, counselors are very busy with many other people. Sometimes, they don't care to help people as much as they can. This isn't always the case, though. Counselors are not the Internet; therefore, they do not know everything that is accepted by every college and university. They try their best, but often they don't have the answers.
Before going to a counselor, a person should study what courses transfer to a college or university. Make a call to the school, go visit the school, or locate the school's website on the Internet and inquire what courses transfer. Many universities and college have a website directory that tells what courses are similar to others. If you are completely clueless to the school's website, you could go to the counselor and ask for them to help you find the information on the website.
The main concept to keep here is this:
I want a certain career. I need to take certain types of courses to get that career. If my current school does not have all of those courses, but they have a few, what courses transfer to another school? How can I be assured these courses transfer? I need proof these courses transfer.
- 9. How many courses can I transfer.
Ah, the really tricky of questions. This is often a situation that many college students become annoyed with. In this wikibook I recommend someone take a few years of a modern language and mathematics. There is a grand logic to this, which I will explain in the next section.
Choosing Transferable Courses[edit]
When transferring to a different college or university, many students notice a large amount of credits/hours do not transfer.
Why is this?
Well, simply put, colleges are like businesses: They want you to retake a course and they want to earn more money from students. Many colleges and universities would not talk about college being a business.
Also, the teaching curriculum and standards of one school may be different than another school. In other words, the learning material in a different school may be more rigorous, complex, detailed, in depth, or etc.
Talk with one college's counsler, and get that counsler to talk about courses being transferable or not. You want courses that can transfer from one college to the next. Sometimes you will have to call someone, write to someone, or meet with someone at a different college to obtain information about credits/hours that are accepted.
Making a Wise Choice[edit]
For many careers, taking English and Mathematics to a certain extent is required. Often, if a person is going to a local college, then he or she can take Mathematics and English courses for a lower price. The first two years of college for many are filled with taking courses that don't relate to their major. The wise who want to transfer to a different college may not take those unrelated courses right away.
Some Liberal Arts (Non-fiction writing 120, Shakespeare 101, etc.) courses do not transfer as well as Mathematics and Foreign language. Many universities require someone to have at least four years of foreign language from a high school. If not that, they require someone to have at least two years of foreign language from a college. Many also like the idea of students having four years of high school Mathematics. To have four years of mathematics would mean someone has taken Calculus before he or she graduates high school.
- 1 college semester = 1 high school year
- 4 years H.S. = 2 years college.
- College goes twice as fast as regular high school.
One of the things I've learned in college is that a few courses exist that have a better chance than others to transfer. Taking math and language courses are the best choice for an undergraduate.
Modern Language:
- Spanish
- German
- French
- In the United States, Spanish is the most common language for college transfer.
- Calculus and above
If a college were to be shrewd and not accept these courses, a person could simply test out; the nice thing about choosing this type of courses is its ease to be quickly reviewed to pass a test. The test usually will quiz someone on his or her current knowledge of the class material.
As long as someone takes a modern language and mathematics, it is likely the courses will transfer to a public university. If not, then someone could most likely test out.

I purchased this sheer abstract floral piece from Zwzzy and it is just darling. It's a 1950's like style (possibly 80's? Not sure.) with a high neckline, capped sleeves, and shell buttons. This is ideal for dancing! I can unbutton the top to wherever I feel comfortable and I can unbutton the bottom to create a front slit for my legs to move easily. Plus, it is sheer so I can wear a light slip underneath and not get so hot! After trying it on, I did decide to shorten the skirt as it was about 5" below my knee, but after the hem it is pretty perfect and ready for spring!

John J. Cullinane
President of The Cullinane Group Inc.; Former Chairman and CEO, Cullinet Software Inc.
"Proof that David really can compete in the same arena as Goliath"
Recently named by the Wall Street Transcript as a top executive in the computer industry, John Cullinane is living proof that David really can compete in the same arena as Goliath, for his company, Cullinet Software, Incorporated (formerly Cullinane Corporation), has thrived by selling software exclusively for IBM-compatible computers.
In 1965, while working for a small computer programming company, Cullinane helped develop a concept for a generalized payroll software program for several banks. He had an idea: why not repackage the same system and market it to any bank? The fixed price could cover the amortized programming costs, marketing and support expenses, plus a healthy profit.
Three years later, armed with a software products company proposal, Cullinane headed for New York. He raised $500,000 from 25 investors, and Cullinane Corporation was established.
By 1972, however, Cullinane's dream was rapidly becoming a nightmare. All that remained of the original half-million dollars was $500, and he had to meet an $8,500 payroll in one week. Fortunate, a check from a customer arrived in time to save the company.
Within a year Cullinane acquired the rights to market the B.F. Goodrich data base management system, which he reworked and renamed Integrated Database Management Systems (IDMS). Combined with a new product called Integrated Data Dictionary, IDMS gave the company a new range of customers and a competitive edge against IBM's outmoded data base system, IMS.
In 1978 Cullinane became the first publicly traded software company and in 1982 joined the New York Stock Exchange. Today there are more than 9,800 Cullinane installations worldwide. Cullinane has established the National Education Center in Framingham, Massachusetts, a complex of 18 classrooms and five computer labs, which 7,000 students are expected to attend in 1984, its first full year of operation. In addition, the firm has opened regional education centers in 13 U.S. cities, offering Cullinet customers the high quality curriculum available in Framingham.

Hypertension is a global health problem. Antihypertensives are the mainstay of treatment for hypertension. Some of them were accidentally found to be useful in alopecias and infantile hemangiomas and have now become standard treatment for these conditions as well. Antihypertensives are also being studied for other dermatological indications, where they have shown promising efficacy. This review focuses on the dermatological indications for antihypertensives, discussing the drugs that have been tried, as well as their efficacy, dosage, duration of therapy, and adverse effects.
Keywords: Antihypertensives in dermatology, minoxidil in alopecia, propranolol in hemangiomas

Come, tie a fragrant wreath of roses,
and let its perfume fill our noses.
Then dance me dizzy, light the pyres
Let's fill this graveyard with desire.
Come, wrap me in your solid grip
and ice me with your bluegreen lips,
let's make our bed on opened graves,
Then tie me up, I'll be your slave.
Come bury me in scent of lilies,
and jolt me with your sting of chillies,
Then cut and carve, let's chop our fingers
and fill the night with stench that lingers.
Then turn my flesh to blooming daisies
and laugh at all delivered praises.
Cause in the end our bone and marrow
has wormed itself to food for sparrows.
Today Magely want's us to write eerie nursery rhymes at toads. It was hard to keep it seemingly sweet, but I hope it smells a little sick at least.

Rose and Lily
Today's ornaments are the Rose of Sharon and the Lily of the Valley. I have some tiny, plastic, 3-D flowers that we were going to use, but I didn't have very many, so I found a bucket with colored rice in it we were going to fill up the ornament with. Well, when I pulled the bucket out, there sitting on top was this cup FULL of dried flowers. More than enough to fill up two little ornaments.
In the mix (in the cup) were little purple heart sequins, so we got a bunch of other purple sequins to add.
I printed off, cut out, and glued on the name tags.

In what may become a recurring feature out of necessity, Hextall454 takes a look at the finest product offerings the NHL Shop has to offer…and then promptly demands his money back.
Can't say there's a whole lot happening right now that makes me want to rush out to the NHL Shop and start burning through my hard-earned currency. It's not that I don't see that you've signed Dan Fritsche to an entry-level deal, Colorado; he's just not exactly at the top of my must-buy Avs jersey list.
Ok, you got me. No such list exists.
And I don't care what they're saying about gas prices going back down, I've got to keep my wallet in check. And besides, our guest room has been swallowed up by this monstrosity, so where would I put fresh NHL.com gear? Hell, Madden came out today. I'm broke.
But in case YOU, the loyal MYFO reader, would like to contribute towards Gary Bettman's annual bonus, here are some curiously-low cost items, courtesy of your friends at Inventory Clearance Central. Continue reading
These discussion materials are posted for hot bitches to use in considering various erotic endeavors to perform on the editors of Melt Your Face Off ("MYFO"). In all cases, interested women should not conduct their own investigation, as everything this paper presents is truer than the pope defecating on an altar boy who is peeing on the Koran.
After a lengthy hiatus, MYFO is pleased to finally present the third installment of our "NHL Mascots: Exposed" series, where we take a closer look at those perky purveyors of performance art and attempt to ascertain what makes them tick. But be forewarned: the life of a mascot is not always a pretty one. The road to the top, as these fine examples of arena entertainment surely have trekked, is fraught with detours, some more shameful than others. Enjoy.
We here at MYFO try rarely to be serious about things. We bring the funny. But there are times, such as now, where we stare at a piece of news and can find no humorous slant to take on it, because it's just infuriating. This summer, we will be introducing a series of Open Letters to personalities around the NHL. As always, much love and respect to the artist formerly known as I Party With Smoot for the artwork. Today, we introduce the first in that series, an Open Letter to Gary Bettman.
The NHL Draft isn't like the ones held by the NBA or the NFL. Work up whatever fervor you like; 98.9 percent of the the teens and foreigners awkwardly pronounced behind a podium won't be making an impact on your favorite team this season. But hey, some people like to celebrate this sort of stuff, and many NHL teams want to help. So join MYFO in our rundown of all the league's DRAFT PARTIES. Just don't blame us when the prick in the back makes the jukebox blare Journey right when your team is about to pick.
Today, the Western Conference.
As a Chicago Blackhawk fan, it is very easy for me to hate certain players. Jordin Tootoo wears a visor when he fights, Tomas Holmstrom is a slow turd, and Chris Chelios is a turncoat. However, there is one player who has earned my wrath not because he plays for a Central Division rival, but because he greatly shamed me. That player is Ryan Suter.

Xmas is just all over the horizon, and like each individual yr it will occur with a entire stocking of video games that will have gamers of all ages counting the times right up until the holiday year. Whilst some titles like Halo: Attain will be out in September, and other titles like Rockstar's Max Payne three will not arrive right up until the New Yr, there are some excellent titles that really should strike the cabinets just in time to make the great present.
Contact of Duty: Black Ops (Xbox 360, PS3)

For the to start with time the franchise will have an offline multiplayer bot manner referred to as Combat Training, exactly where you can exercise and groom your capabilities prior to you go on the net.

Tier 1 perks will let you to customise your participant to give him a one of a kind glance.
Fable III (Xbox 360)
Peter Molyneux is normally mocked in the gaming community for his notion that in Fable you can do nearly anything, but to reasonable gamers this is witnessed more as a mantra the game strives for fairly than a literal reality. Actual innovation takes place little by little and incrementally, and Fable has always been about hoping out new ideas. In Fable III, Molyneux hopes to get rid of some of the clunkiness of conventional RPGs by eliminating many of the menu capabilities and relying on the game universe to alter your weapons and clothes. Whilst the Fable sequence has by no means been as great as Bioware titles in letting choice have an affect on the main narrative, Fable III has always been more of a sandbox game than a real RPG, and it is really people options that have clients waiting around for its release
Fallout: New Vegas (Xbox 360, PS3)
Set three a long time right after the activities of Fallout three, the brilliant lights and desert wastelands really should insert a great backdrop for this submit-apocalyptic odyssey. The game is staying made by the great individuals at Obsidian Leisure, many of whom worked for Black Isle Studios on the authentic Fallout game and sequel. The location really should insert a little more lifestyle to drab, vapid brown landscape of Fallout three, though even now keeping a lot of the jazzy charm, mutant tussles, and lifestyle-altering choices that can make Bethesda one particular of the foremost publishers of open up globe gaming.
Continue to keep relaxed though enjoying with the i-eX Gaming Chair.
