August 19th 2008We received a call from Marcia a lady from probes saying she had had a injured badger under her shed for a couple of days and could we help. I said yes and got Lucy our driver and my wife Julie to come with me to get this badger. When we arrived we found that the badger was well dug in under the shed and was not reachable from any direction, as she was to far in. So the only way to get her would be to rip up the shed floor. I asked Marcia if this was ok as she was an animal lover she didn't hesitate and got a hammer and chisel and tried to get one of the boards up herself. But this was no good so I took her pick axe and proceeded to rip most of her shed floor up, before I could get the grasper on her. | Once I had done this we tried to pull her free from under the last part of the shed. But she was stubborn and did not come out easily, we eventually got her out enough for Lucy to scruff her. We then got her in to our carry basket, once this was done we took her to our vets.

Pipe / Tube Conveyors: A Modern Method Of Coal And Ash Transportation
By: Frank J. Loeffler, PE
The pipe or tube conveyor solves these problems by transporting the product in a circular cross section formed by overlapping the belt edges and using idlers arranged in a hexagonal pattern to form a tubular shape (see figure #1).
FIGURE No. 1 - Cross Section
The belt encloses the product being conveyed and protects the product from the elements and the environment from the product. The return belt is also formed into a circular cross section, rolled with the carrying side of the belt inward to prevent material clinging to the belt from dislodging at the return idlers.
The only area where the belt is open is at the head and tail end area=s. This limits the possible clean up to the relatively short transition section=s where the belt changes from flat to the circular shape. The most critical area is at the head discharge. This problem can be easily solved by a short Adribble@ collection belt to convey collected material | to the discharge chute.
The pipe / tube conveyor also eliminates the need for transfer points to change direction. The pipe / tube conveyor has the ability to form horizontal curves over a much smaller radii than conventional trough belt conveyors, since the belt is constrained on all sides by the idler rolls. This eliminates all the environmental problems and expense of belt cleaners, pulleys, drives | [

A student walks past the entrance to Gardena High School in Gardena, California January 18, 2011 after two students were shot when a gun went off accidentally in a classroom.
Security officers wielding metal detecting wands meticulously searched students Wednesday as they waited in a long line outside a Los Angeles high school where two 15-year-olds were shot in a classroom a day earlier.
The stepped-up security measures come after a 9 mm semiautomatic handgun being carried in a backpack by a student discharged Tuesday when he put the bag down on a desk at Gardena High School, authorities said.
A bullet pierced a boy in the neck, exited, and hit a girl in the head. The boy was doing well Wednesday, while the girl remained in serious condition with a skull fracture.
The girl regained consciousness and could move her body after surgery to remove a blood clot from her brain caused by the bullet's impact, said Julie Rees, spokeswoman for Harbor-UCLA Medical Center.
The 17-year | -old suspect, who was already on probation for a fight at school, was arrested. Police said two other students were also taken into custody for investigation of concealing evidence.
A boy traded clothes with the fleeing suspect, and a girl took the backpack, police Detective A. Batris said.
In an unrelated incident, authorities said a bulletproof vest saved the life of a Los Angeles school police officer who was shot Wednesday as he confronted a man who appeared to breaking into cars near El | [

Your average Egyptian doesn’t read much other than the Quran and the newspaper on a daily basis. People aren’t reading novels on the subway like they do in transit in NYC; rather, a man’s beard peaks out from his daily, a woman’s lips move with the rhythmic verses of the holy Islamic text.

San Francisco Policies for Assigning Students to Schools, Proposition H (November 2011)
The approval of Proposition H would meant that it would become an official policy of the City of San Francisco to encourage San Francisco Unified School District to give the highest priority to assigning each student to the school closest to the student's home.
|San Francisco Proposition H|
- Election results are from the San Francisco elections office as of 5:30 a.m. PST on Thursday, November 24, 2011.
The official voter guide arguments in favor of Proposition H were signed by:
- Chris Miller, Chairman, Students First
- Tami Aviles (Gin)
- Carol Endo
Arguments in favor
They made these arguments:
- "San Francisco loses many frustrated families every year. This is due largely to the current SAS policies, which do not favor – and in most cases do not even consider – neighborhood proximity when offering seats at overcrowded schools."
- "Imagine living only blocks away from your neighborhood school, and being told your child must attend a school, far from home. Not only does this not make practical sense, it also costs taxpayers more money, causes | unnecessary traffic, takes away from family and study time, imposes undue financial and logistical burden for parents (especially with children attending different schools), and makes parent involvement difficult."
- "Passing Prop H will tell the School District and Board that voters want a student assignment system based on quality neighborhood schools for all; that it’s time to bring quality neighborhood schools to all students, rather than telling some students to leave their neighborhood to pursue a quality | [

Al Clarke, who retired from the district several years ago, returns as the principal at Navajo Mountain High School. The previous principal, Lewis Singer, is the new vice principal at Albert R. Lyman Middle School in Blanding. Boyd Silversmith, who served as vice principal at ARL Middle School, transfers to a new position as vice principal at Monument Valley High School.
There are a host of changes in the district office following the recent retirement of Toni Turk. Turk coordinated the district’s efforts with federal, state and tribal governments. Lynette Johnson, previously the supervisor of secondary schools, is now director of federal programs. Ron Nielson, who served as supervisor of elementary schools, supervises instruction in all schools. The change also impacts additional district office personnel.
In other matters at the August 15 board meeting, the number of students taking norm-referenced standardized tests will decrease throughout the district.
For several years, the district tested students in grades 3 through 11 every year is in addition to the tests required by state and federal mandates. As a result, students in the San Juan School District have been tested more than students in nearly all other schools.

The 20th Century Makeover (History of Makeup)
A short historical look back at the pioneers and influences that shaped today’s world of cosmetics.
At the beginning of the 1900s Victorian values abhorred | makeup and associated its use with women of immoral characters. Any visible hint of tampering with one's natural colour would be looked upon with disdain. Homemade cosmetics had to be applied discretely based on foods such as oatmeal, honey and egg yolk.
Women who initially applied eyeliner were referred to as “vamps” an abbreviation for ‘vampires’.
The invention of photography and film catalysed the drive for better cosmetics to achieve the right on screen look; attitudes were influenced as pictures of celebrities with flawless complexions with sexual allure, changed standards of feminine beauty.

Since October, 2010, Shodan has consistently made waves in the information security world.
For a quick review, Shodan is a computer search engine; essentially a searchable database of pre-scanned IP addresses with service banners from various system services like Web servers, SNMP, Telnet and more.
Like any security tool, Shodan can be leveraged by both malicious attackers and legitimate security operations to gain insights into the public IP exposure of an organization, and the results are often surprising.
Indeed, the DHS ICS-CERT has published multiple alerts directly referencing Shodan (and ERIPP) warning of the potential information gathering risks from malicious use of this resource and how misuse can pose threats to critical infrastructure like SCADA and ICS systems exposed on the public Internet.
The following advisories have a Shodan focus, and several other ICS-CERT product vulnerability advisories directly mention Shodan as a threat multiplier:

Make room for hearty Breakfast at Valerie’s
Friday, March 9, 2012
Why: Breakfast at Valerie’s opened six months ago and has already become a habit for many seeking the ever-popular supersized All-American breakfast. Menu items are numerous, ensuring something to please a range of appetites, and lunch is served as well. Prices and atmosphere focus on family-friendly dining.
Atmosphere: The kitchen is at the far end of the rectangular space, with a few bar stools at a tall counter. Booths flank the sides and tables and chairs set for four fill in the open floor. Windows are topped with valances and net lights have been added to each window pane, creating a lighted diamond grid over each. Walls are painted with warm colors. Floral and landscape photos and a few décor items provide elements of interest. The overall vibe is one of practical operation.
What I tried: Both my dining companion and I settled on the Perfect Breakfast, which is touted as having all the choices, but with slightly smaller portions than the All-American Breakfast. Diners who opt for this breakfast make their selections from meats, potatoes, breads and eggs.
I chose bacon, hash browns with | green bell peppers, onions and cheddar cheese, crepes with blueberries and scrambled eggs. My dining companion decided on a sausage patty, home-style potatoes, a waffle with strawberries and whipped cream (for an additional $2.50), and although she did not want the eggs, this adjustment was not allowed.

What drew you to the horror genre?
I’ve always loved horror—I was reading science fiction, fantasy, and horror short stories as a child. My mom read me fairy tales (some of which are pretty horrific).

What scares you?
Stories about loss of control and of bodily integrity.

Lions general manager Martin Mayhew understands the sense of urgency in turning around the team's fortunes. (Robin Buckson/Detroit News)
Allen Park -- In a brief moment of levity Wednesday, Martin Mayhew began his postmortem of the Lions' season by comparing it to a reality TV show.
And to some, that'll no doubt reinforce the notion this team's ownership is living in fantasy land, retaining the services of the bulk of its coaching staff, including Jim Schwartz and all three of his coordinators, as well as Mayhew, the team's general manager, after a 4-12 season that showed, above all else, the Lions weren't ready for prime time. Not even close, actually.
But that's exactly what the plan is, "as far as I know," Mayhew said Wednesday, as he met with reporters in Allen Park for nearly an hour to discuss what went wrong for a franchise that went from a rare playoff berth in 2011 to being arguably the NFL's biggest bust in 2012.
"It could be like 'Surv | ivor,' you know, where you go back and you write somebody's name down and you think that they're going home?" joked Mayhew, who did have a postseason conversation on the phone Monday night with owner William Clay Ford Sr. and Lions vice chairman Bill Ford Jr. "But, no, as far as I know, we're going to be back. I've spoken with Mr. Ford and Bill and we talked about our plans going forward. And we're certainly working on getting things right."

The role of the press has grave implications in stirring public perception. Decisions are made before that important day in court. Evidence is filtered through the sieve of public opinion until all is known before attorneys make opening statements. This is most critical when it comes to cases involving celebrities. The media catches hold and keeps the story before us until we’re tired and in need of a new fix.

NBC reports that the elevated terror alert in December 2003 was due to the CIA deciding that there were coded messages in the "text crawl" on the Al-Jazeera TV news network. They used steganography, the science of finding secret messages that have been hidden in regular messages.

JACKSONVILLE — With goals from three different players, second-seeded Buchholz rolled to a 3-1 win Friday over top-seeded Mandarin in the District 1-5A championship game at Patton Park.
Louis Allen and Diego Fisher combined for the first goal two minutes into the match to put the Mustangs on their heels.
Allen took a ball down the right side and crossed it to Fisher, who finished it for the quick lead.
About nine minutes later, Buchholz took a free kick and Mandarin keeper Mark | Darling bobbled the ball. John Schratt was there to put the shot away for a 2-0 lead.
Late in the game, Mandarin pushed up its defenders, and Allen took advantage, getting loose, splitting two defenders and finishing the insurance goal in the 75th minute.
Mandarin's goal came early in the second half when Jeinson Gonzalez took a shot that bounced off the keeper and Kacper Grzeszczak put it away to pull the Mustangs within | [

Some Articles on the Sokal Hoax
Considerable thoughtful commentary has been stimulated by a notorious hoax by the physicist Alan Sokal, who persuaded a journal of cultural studies to publish an article in which scientific nonsense was camouflaged by jargon, borrowed from trendy thinkers who have questioned the authority of scientists. Although the journal was unrefereed and relatively unknown, many scientists felt that its editorsī acceptance of the article pointed to severe problems in the way some humanities scholars approach the sciences.

It's one of those cases that could have ended badly, but ended as a relatively minor police incident.
During the Super Bowl on Sunday, a domestic dispute turned violent and police were dispatched to the 900 block of Cedar Crest Court in Edgewood where a man with a shotgun had barricaded himself in his home.
The circumstances could have been regarded as ominous. After an initial confrontation – during which a shot was fired - the suspect, armed with a shotgun and wearing a tactical vest and military fatigues, confronted his girlfriend,.
Police evacuated nearby homes and surrounded the apartment. Within about an hour, the man walked out and was taken into custody.

Many trees upstate were damaged by the hurricane that swept through the East Coast at the end of last summer, and I was involved in finding the safest equipment to clean up the mess. I love trees and found the chore of cutting them down very difficult, especially knowing that the stately 60 year old trees would be impossible to replace. Even though we planted new trees, I don’t know whether I will be there to enjoy these new saplings when they are 60 years old. I realize that the storm waters that destroyed the trees came at His will, and He could just as easily cause miraculous growth so that the new trees would be as stately as they ones they replaced. We know that all is in His hands, and even though we are required to put forth our efforts, the ultimate success is dependant on His will.

New York City Pet Law Gives You The Right-After Three Months- To Live With Your Pet Regardless Of What Your Lease OR LANDLORD STATES ALSO, FEDERAL AND STATE LAWS GIVE YOU THE LEGAL RIGHT TO RESIDE WITH YOUR EMOTIONAL SUPPORT ANIMAL OR PHYSICAL SUPPORT ANIMAL REGARDLESS OF ANY LEASE CLAUSE TO THE CONTRARY.
In New York City regardless of a lease clause to the contrary, tenants have the right to reside with their dogs, cats or other domesticated pets in their apartment. In order to enforce this benefit, the tenant is required to live with his/her pet for a period of 90 days. The pet cannot be secreted. The pet must be housed in a reasonable manner in the same manner as any pet is housed, i.e. a dog must be walked on a regular basis, After three months, the tenant then has the right to keep the dog. It is irrelevant whether or not the landlord actually knew about the pet. The | test involves whether the pet was housed in the customary manner and whether the owner should reasonably known of the existence of the pet.
So as to prove that the tenant has the right to benefit from the pet law, its advisable that the tenant document the date that the pet arrived at the apartment, possibly with proof of purchase or adoption, and photograph the pet in the public areas of the building as the three month threshold period progresses.
The text of the pet law follows:

A month ago a new section of the constitution of my denomination, the Presbyterian Church (USA), became effective. Amendment 10-A allows our church to ordain otherwise-qualified gays and lesbians as clergy and officers.
Why should Catholics care about this? For several reasons, not the least of which is that some of us Presbyterians may be coming to Catholics to ask how you've handled having a priesthood with a substantial gay population when the Catholic church teaches that having a deep-seated tendency toward homosexuality is "objectively disordered."
We hope you have helpful answers because we Presbyterians now face painful divisions within our church after the adoption of this constitutional amendment -- one that I favor and have favored for several decades. (To read my essay on what the Bible says about homosexuality, click here. [http://bit.ly/q0T102])
Catholics have lived with such tensions for a long time. Perhaps you have learned some things that can help us -- and I hope it's something other than an ecclesial version of don't-ask/don't-tell. We Presbyterians finally are past that, thank goodness.
Another reason Catholics may care about this Presbyterian | story is that it shows once again how the church can be hurt when it fails to be a leader in movements to liberate people. That's a lesson all religions need to learn.

Here is a recap from Joe Torre's meeting with the media before today's series finale with Houston:
There is no sign yet of Jason Schmidt, but he is believed to be en route.
If Schmidt wasn't deemed ready to pitch tomorrow, the club would have decided between Eric Stults or Jeff Weaver for Monday night, meaning Stults would have been held out of Friday's start with Albuquerque.
Hong-Chih Kuo is close | to being activated, perhaps as soon as tomorrow. Torre is scheduled to meet with Ned Colletti later today, for the second straight day, to discuss possible roster moves. No decision has yet been made on the corresponding 25-man roster move for Schmidt.
Someone asked if Blake DeWitt had frequent flyer miles, and Torre praised Blake for being very resilient, noting that he hasn't taken any of his four (and counting) demotions this season personally.
Every relief pitcher, including Broxton, is available to pitch today.

The responsible gene, encoding methyl-CpG binding protein 2 (MeCP2), was recently discovered. Here we explore the spectrum of phenotypes resulting from MECP2 mutations.

R168X mutations were identified in six unrelated sporadic cases, as well as in two affected sisters and their normal mother. The missense mutations were de novo and affect conserved domains of MeCP2.

Dow-30 Earnings: 3M Company - Third Quarter 2012
Diversified manufacturing and technology conglomerate 3M Company (MMM – Free 3M Stock Report) has reported third-quarter results. Sales were $7.5 billion, down $34 million from a year ago, $183 million shy of our estimate, and $133 million short of the consensus target. On the bright side, share earnings came in at $1.65, which was 9% better than the year-earlier figure and in line with both our call and Wall Street's expectations.
Both global economic softness and the stronger U.S. dollar hurt 3M's top line. Indeed, currency-neutral sales advanced just 2%, while acquisitions added another percentage point. These gains were below our forecasts. As expected, though, foreign exchange headwinds more than offset the growth, which lead to a modest top-line decline.
Industrial & Transportation revenues came | in at $2.6 billion, down slightly in U.S. dollars and a bit shy of our target. Sales did, however, rise in all regions, thanks to growth in automotive OEM, aerospace, and aftermarket demand. Health Care sales inched up | [

Joel Stevenett was born in Alberta, Canada to parents who were just crazy enough to encourage his drumming. At just three years old they discovered Joel’s natural-born talent as they found him rapping his fingers on the car dashboard in sync to the radio. From a Ford dashboard to a pawnshop starter kit, the artistry began.
A childhood of drumming to Rush, Boston, Boz Skaggs, Chick Corea, Allan Holdsworth, and Earth Wind & Fire, inspired Joel’s creativity and innovative spirit. At the age of 14, he was already capturing the attention of mature musicians. Suddenly, Joel was getting paid offers to drum. “You mean you are going to pay me to play?”
Years after high school jazz band and learning that he could hit things for a living, Joel decided to leave college and his full-ride music scholarship and accept the offer to go on tour with the Osmonds. The journey begins | .
Joel’s reputation of a Canadian with a big heart, groove, and style, flourished quickly. Before long, Joel found himself on the road with such acts as JoDee Messina, The Wilkinsons, and SHeDAISY, among others.From the road to the studio, Joel’s inventive and physical flair can be heard on numerous TV theme songs such as the NBA and The Today Show as well as movie soundtracks like Meet Joe Black, August Rush and Along Came Polly.

|Fixing The 4th Gear Problem: Another
I have an '01 LC which developed a nasty habit of jumping out of 4th gear when the bike was under a heavy load such as being in 4th gear, full throttle and over 3500 RPM. Although it wasn't all that bad at first it finally got to the point that passing a car on the highway meant staying out of 4th gear, either using 3rd or 5th.
Once I passed 20,000 on the odometer it got to the point I could pop the bike out of 4th gear at will. All I needed to do was accelerate even moderately hard in 4th gear and exceed 3500 to 3700 RPM. Under any acceleration, over 4,000 RPM the bike would come out of 4th every time.
There has been a lot of discussion about this on the LC Forum and it appears that this problem exists on some 2000, 2001 and 2002 models. The 1998 and 1999 models do not seem to be afflicted. Some still | hold that this problem is caused by the manner of shifting and not a problem with the bike. I contend that is pure bunk. I can ride my brothers | [

At the Detroit Zoo
The Detroit Zoo is home to two male bald eagles. Both birds were wild-born but suffered wing injuries that prevented them from being released back into the wild. Lindy – named for famous American aviator Charles Lindbergh – was found on Orcas Island, Washington, in April 1988 and came to the Detroit Zoo in October of that year. Flash – so named because he flew into electrical transmission wires – came here from Kodiak Island, Alaska, in November 2009. The Detroit Zoo collects the molted bald eagle feathers and provides them to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to be distributed to Native Americans for use in religious ceremonies.The bald eagles can be found in the American Grasslands.
The bald eagle earned its name from the Old English word "balde," meaning white, referring to the distinctive white feathers covering its head and tail.
Scientific name: Haliaeetus leucocephalus
Continent: North America
Habitat | : Dense coniferous forests along lakes and streams
Size: Females are 35-37 inches with a wingspan of 72-90 inches; males are smaller

Bills weaknesses play perfectly in to 49ers' hands. Turnovers, soft defense, injuries will doom the Bills at Candlestick on Sunday.

It is often said that the "father" of our church is Mr. Elias Betzios. This title was bestowed upon him because of the following circumstances:
Mr. Betzios was a long-time board member of the neighboring St. Demetrios Church of Astoria. When he relocated his family to the Whitestone area, the distance was too far to worship at St. Demet | rios. It had been his lifelong-dream to establish a new church some day. In his conversations with Archbishop Iakovos, he was encouraged to pursue this dream and establish a new parish in the Whitestone area. This goal was furthered along by a letter sent to the Archdiocese by Argiro Mari pleading that a new church be established in the Whitestone area. Archbishop Iakovos at this point gave Mr. Betzios his blessing to proceed with a new parish.

The Report was told several times within the past week: "tomorrow." Well, tomorrow came and nothing.
There are a couple highly interesting nuances to The Rep's approach in today's piece.
First, the article acknowledges that the "anonymous" letter writer wanted The Rep to get the scoop on the story. The lack of The Rep's response, until today, probably means that "the powers that be" at The Repository didn't have the journalistic guts to dig in as a good investigative daily newspaper would.
Is The Rep's failure on this story indicative that Stark County no longer has a newspaper that is interested in or capable of solid investigative journalism?
Second, as written, this piece posits the notion that the "anonymous" letters were planted by interest groups; that is, anti-Healy interest groups, to wit:
A 40-something man who engaged in an improper relationship with a high school girl? Or is he the target | of an orchestrated political smear campaign, with the goal of destroying his reputation, credibility and career?The Report thinks it is preposterous to suggest that Canton councilpersons or Canton policemen might be part of "an orchestrated political smear campaign."

The Beginning and End of the 2 Great Crashes of the 21st Century
byMar 9th 2013 9:00AM
On this day in economic and financial history...
The Dow Jones Industrial Average reached the end of its financial crisis bear-market slide on March 9, 2009. This was only the second bear market to destroy more than half of the Dow's value and thus was the second most devastating crash in Dow history, behind only that which began the Great Depression. It also became the second most volatile bear market in history, with the exception of the very brief crash of 1987 -- an average trading day during the financial crisis slide saw the Dow's change by an average of 1.51% in either direction.
The causes and consequences of this collapse continue to be debated and explored years later, and investors remain on edge, the memory of wealth destruction fresh in their minds. Nearly four years to the day after the crash ended, the Dow surpassed its previous heights, returning to levels first reached in 2007. Will this new level endure? Only time will tell.

Seattle Seahawks running back Julius Jones will miss this Sunday’s game at Minnesota due to his bruised lung, but could be back next week, coach Jim Mora said Wednesday.
Jones was injured in the first quarter of Sunday’s 31-20 loss at Arizona and spent one night in a Phoenix hospital, but is back with the Seahawks attending meetings as the team prepares for this week’s game against the 8-1 Vikings.
“He says he’s feeling good, but he won’t be available Sunday,” Mora said. “We’ll see how he progresses. Hopefully (he’ll be back) next week. We have to be careful though.”
Second-year back Justin Forsett will start in Jones’ place after rushing for a career-best 123 yards on 17 carries against the Cardinals. Rookie Louis Rankin will also get an increased role in back-up duty, Mora said.
With his increased role in the backfield, Forsett will be taken off the kickoff return team, with Rankin and wide receiver Ben Obomanu handling that chore.
Mora said | there might be a few other players limited in practice Wednesday, but nothing that threatens to keep anyone else out of the Vikings game.
Quarterback Matt Hasselbeck, who has been limited in Wednesday workouts the previous two weeks because of shoulder and rib problems, will be full go this week.
