Destiny Pills and Space Wizards by Jean Davis
This is a great collection of speculative fiction short stories. Speculative Fiction is a genre that I am not as familiar with as others. My thoughts were that it was science fiction stories. However, Jean does an excellent job with each story and is able to make it clear that this is not just science fiction.
You have to think Isaac Asimov or Phillip K. Dick here. I was mesmerized by the story-telling in this collection. I kept thinking, how does she do it? By the end of the book, I was blown away with the brilliant imagination it took to write stories of this kind. I could never do it. But I am glad that Jean continues to do so.


The Powerseat® Eco electro-hydraulic gas flow control valve allows the control and safety shut-off of low pressure combustible gases.
The Powerseat® Eco electro-hydraulic gas shut-off valve allows the control and safety shut-off of low pressure combustible gases in pipes from 40mm to 250mm, whilst focusing on being energy efficient and environmentally friendly. The Powerseat® Eco shut-off valve is kept open by a hydraulic pump where hydraulic fluid is forced into a cylinder driving the valve open.
How It Works
When the valve is energised the relief valve closes, the motor starts and the pump forces fluid into the cylinder driving the valve open. When the fully open position is reached a limit switch changes state, switches off the pump motor and illuminates a Green LED to show that the valve is fully open and the gas can flow through. The valve will remain in this open position unless a problem is detected.
When there is an issue detected in the system, such as an electrical malfunction or a drop in pressure, the power is automatically cut to the valve. Removal of power causes the relief valve to open and the safety shut off valve to snap shut, and the gas is prevented from reaching the malfunction, therefore protecting the building and the gas source.
Stays Open By Hydraulic Pump
Hydraulic fluid is forced into a cylinder driving the valve open

United States District Court, S.D. New York
November 19, 2012
Sagi GENGER and TPR Investment Associates, Inc., on behalf of AG PROPERTIES CO., Third-Party Plaintiffs,
Gilad SHARON, Third-Party Defendant.
[Copyrighted Material Omitted]
John Dellaportas, Esq., Evangelos Michailidis, Esq., Duane Morris, LLP, New York, NY, for Third-Party Plaintiffs.
William B. Wachtel, Esq., Julian D. Schreibman, Esq., Elliot Silverman, Esq., Wachtel Masyr & Missry LLP, New York, NY, for Third-Party Defendant.
OPINION AND ORDER
SHIRA A. SCHEINDLIN, District Judge.
Sagi Genger (" Genger" ) and TPR Investment Associates, Inc. (" TPR," together
" third-party plaintiffs" ) bring this action seeking enforcement of a promissory note and contribution and/or indemnification against third-party defendant Gilad Sharon, Sharon now moves for summary judgment seeking to dismiss the third-party plaintiffs' complaint in its entirety on the ground that the claims are precluded by the final judgment in a state court case involving the same parties. For the following reasons, the motion for summary judgment is denied.
This lawsuit arises out of a Canadian real estate venture (" AG Properties" ) between Gilad Sharon and Sagi Genger's father, Arie Genger. In 2001, AG Properties was incorporated in Nova Scotia. Arie Genger served as its sole director. Later in 2001, AG Holdings, another corporation under the sole directorship of Arie Genger, acquired all of the shares of stock in AG Properties. During 2001 and 2002, AG Properties acquired the entire beneficial interest in two pieces of real property located in Montreal, Canada (the " Durocher" and " Lincoln" properties). TPR, a Delaware corporation beneficially owned at the time by Sagi Genger and other members of the Genger family, provided AG Holdings the mezzanine debt financing necessary to acquire the property. The properties were placed in trust in 2002 (the " Lincoln" and " Durocher" Trusts).
Genger now alleges that Sharon held a fifty percent interest in AG Properties through Omniway, a Cypriot company. Genger alleges that Sharon purchased the stake with a $1.25 million promissory note (the " Omniway Note" ) secured by his shares in AG Properties. The Omniway Note was executed on February 6, 2002. The Note provided that the principal sum would be paid in three annual installments of $125,000 on July 24, 2008, July 24, 2009, and July 24, 2010, with the outstanding principal sum due on July 24, 2011. Additionally, interest of 6.5% per year was due annually beginning on July 24, 2003.
The Omniway Note contained an acceleration clause allowing AG Properties to recover the entire unpaid principal amount and all other amounts payable in an Event of Default:
Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the entire unpaid principal balance and all other amounts payable hereunder shall become immediately due and payable, in the case of an Event of Default specified (i) in clause (a) above, at the option of Payee; and (ii) in clauses (b) or (c) above, ipso facto upon occurrence of the Event of Default and without notice, demand, or any further or other action of the payee.
Clause (a) of the Omniway Note defines an Event of Default as: " Maker's failure to pay any of the principal of this Note when
due and payable or Maker's failure to pay any interest on this Note when due and payable and such failure to pay interest shall continue for thirty (30) days."  Neither Omniway nor Sharon have made any of the principal or interest payments due under the Omniway Note.
In 2003, Arie Genger and Sharon agreed to substitute Lerner Manor, an Israeli company, for Omniway as a fifty percent stockholder of AG Properties for $25,000 consideration. As a result, Sagi Genger alleges that he had no knowledge of the Omniway Note prior to this litigation. In 2004, at the direction of Arie Genger, Lerner Manor was retroactively substituted as a fifty percent interest holder in both the Lincoln and Durocher Trusts for the stated consideration of ten dollars.
In 2004 and 2005, AG Properties sold the Lincoln and Durocher properties for a profit. AG Properties then gave one million dollars of the proceeds to AG Holdings, which used that money to purchase Lerner Manor's fifty percent interest in AG Properties as well as Lerner Manor's fifty percent stake in the Lincoln and Durocher Trusts from Lerner Manor. Sharon received the proceeds from these transactions.
On October 22, 2007, TPR, AG Properties, Dalia Genger, and D & K Limited Partnership (" D & K" ) filed an action in Supreme Court, New York County, against Sharon and Lerner Manor alleging fraud, aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, and conversion. On July 10, 2009, the Supreme Court dismissed the Complaint on the grounds that a 2008 divorce arbitration between Arie Genger and his former wife, Dalia Genger, precluded the claim. The divorce arbitration stemmed from a settlement stipulation that called for a fifty-fifty distribution of marital assets between Arie and Dalia Genger. Following the distribution of marital property pursuant to the settlement, Dalia Genger alleged that Arie Genger had undervalued and concealed assets, including the Canadian real estate venture.  The arbitrator determined that she " never had any real or equitable marital interest in the Canadian venture."  On September 8, 2011, the Appellate Division affirmed the Supreme Court's dismissal of the complaint.
Vladimir Gusinski, a creditor of AG Holdings, brought a claim for fraudulent conveyance against Genger in this Court in 2010. Gusinski extended a $2.5 million loan to AG Holdings in 2001. After AG Holdings defaulted in payment, Gusinski obtained a judgment for approximately $4.35 million in the Supreme Court of the State of New York. In the federal court action, Gusinski alleged that Genger intentionally depleted AG Holdings' assets to render it incapable of repaying the loan. Genger then filed a third-party complaint against Lerner Manor, Omniway, and Sharon seeking enforcement of the Omniway Note and contribution and/or indemnification relating to Gusinski's claim. On May 6, 2011, Genger settled the primary lawsuit with Gusinski for a sum of money. Sharon now moves for summary judgment on Genger's claims.
III. LEGAL STANDARD ON A MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT
Summary judgment in a defendant's favor is appropriate only if " there is no genuine dispute as to any material fact and [defendant is] entitled to judgment as a matter of law."  " An issue of fact is genuine if the evidence is such that a reasonable jury could return a verdict for the nonmoving party. A fact is material if it might affect the outcome of the suit."
Because Sharon is moving for summary judgment, he " bears the burden of establishing the absence of any genuine issue of material fact."  To defeat Sharon's motion, third-party plaintiffs " ‘ must do more than simply show that there is some metaphysical doubt as to the material facts,’ "  and " may not rely on conclusory allegations or unsubstantiated speculation."
In deciding these motions, I must " construe the facts in the light most favorable to the non-moving party," that is, to plaintiffs, " and [ ] resolve all ambiguities and draw all reasonable inferences against the movant," that is, against the defendant. " The role of the court is not to resolve disputed issues of fact but to assess whether there are any factual issues to be tried."  " ‘ Credibility determinations, the weighing of the evidence, and the drawing of legitimate inferences from the facts are jury functions, not those of a judge.’ "
IV. APPLICABLE LAW
A. Claim Preclusion
" When a claim has been fully litigated, the doctrine of claim preclusion generally bars the future litigation both of
that claim and of any closely related claims."  A " federal court must give a state court judgment the same preclusive effect as would be given a judgment under the law of the State in which the judgment was rendered."  Because the relevant antecedent judgment in this case occurred in New York state court, New York law governs the law of preclusion.
New York " has adopted a transactional approach to claim preclusion."  Under that approach, " once a claim is brought to final conclusion all other claims [between the same parties] arising out of the same transaction or series of transactions are barred, even if based upon different theories or if seeking a different remedy."  " A pragmatic test [is] applied to make this determination— analyzing whether the facts are related in time, space, origin, or motivation, whether they form a convenient trial unit, and whether their treatment as a unit conforms to the parties' expectations or business understanding or usage."
" The primary purposes of [claim preclusion] are grounded in public policy concerns and are intended to ensure finality, prevent vexatious litigation and promote judicial economy."  However, courts must be careful not to apply the doctrine " too harshly" , and thus, " ‘ [i]n properly seeking to deny a litigant two days in court, ... deprive [the litigant] of one.’ "
Contribution provides that one of two or more joint wrongdoers should not be required to pay more than its share of a common burden. Accordingly, contribution is allowed only among joint tortfeasors. " The definition of a joint tortfeasor is fairly broad. A finding of liability is not required."  Therefore, the fact that the prior action in which Gusinski alleged tortious conduct settled, making an ultimate determination of liability unavailable, does not preclude a contribution action.
Under New York Law, indemnity is a restitution concept permitting shifting the loss to avoid the unjust enrichment of one party at the expense of the other. Although indemnification claims usually arise from an express agreement by which one party agrees to hold the other harmless for claims brought against it by a third-party, in the absence of an express
contractual provision for indemnification, an implied right of indemnification can still be found. A person is entitled to implied indemnity when he, " ‘ in whole or in part, has discharged a duty which is owed by him but which as between himself and another should have been discharged by the other.’ "
Interpreting New York law, the Second Circuit has identified two sets of circumstances in which a right to implied indemnification may exist. First, indemnification can be implied from the special nature of a contractual relationship between two parties; this has been called the " implied contract theory."  Second, indemnification can be implied when there is a great disparity in the fault of two tortfeasors, and one of the tortfeasors has paid for a loss that was primarily the responsibility of the other; this tort-based doctrine has been called " implied-in-law" indemnity.
A. Claim Preclusion
The parties agree that Genger and Sharon were both parties to the 2007 state law claim and that the state court dismissal constituted a final judgment on the merits. Sharon argues that this judgment precludes Genger's current claim for two reasons. First, Genger's claims stem from the same series of transactions at issue in the prior suit— Sharon's investment in AG Properties— and thus cannot be brought under a new legal theory. Second, Genger could have brought the claim for enforcement of the Omniway Note in the prior suit because Sharon had defaulted on his interest payments. Accordingly, Sharon argues, Genger had the option to demand payment of the entire unpaid principal balance and all other amounts payable under the Note's acceleration clause.
1. The 2007 Lawsuit Does Not Preclude Genger's Claim for Enforcement of the Omniway Note
Sharon's investment in AG Properties through the Omniway Note constitutes a distinct transaction from the one at issue in the state court action. The state court action alleged that Sharon defrauded TPR, AG Properties, Dalia Genger, and D & K out of the proceeds from the Canadian real estate venture through a sham transaction. That transaction, the substitution of Lerner Manor as a fifty percent shareholder in AG Properties for $25,000 consideration, took place in 2003. Genger now alleges that Sharon made a bona fide investment in AG Properties via the Omniway Note in 2002. Because the state court action did not address the Omniway Note, litigating its enforcement now will not " ‘ destroy or impair rights or interests' " established in that judgment. That both the state court action and Genger's current claim involved " essentially
the same course of wrongful conduct" — Sharon's investment in AG Properties— does not preclude the current action. Because the Omniway Note involved a separate transaction than the one at issue in the state court action, Genger's current action does not constitute claim-splitting.
Moreover, the claims raised in the state court action required different evidence to support them than Genger's current claim. To enforce the Omniway Note, Genger must demonstrate that it was a valid contract supported by consideration. In contrast, the state court fraud claim alleged that Sharon aided in preparing phony documents in 2003, Plaintiffs' unjust enrichment claim in the 2007 state court action disputed the existence of a valid contract between Sharon and AG Property for the purposes of the 2003 transaction. Genger now asserts that the parties executed a different but valid contract in 2002 and seeks to enforce it. The 2007 conversion claim alleged an unauthorized possession of the proceeds from the Canadian real estate venture by Sharon, rather than the existence of a legitimate investment in the form of a promissory note. Finally, plaintiffs' breach of fiduciary duty claim in the 2007 state court action alleged that Sharon aided Arie Genger in breaching his duty to TPR by participating in the 2003 transaction. This requires showing that the 2003 transaction constituted that breach, that Sharon participated in the breach, and that the plaintiffs suffered damages as a result. Neither the earlier unjust enrichment claim
nor the breach of fiduciary duty claim requires the same evidence as Genger's current claim for enforcement of the Omniway Note, nor did they implicate the transaction now at issue.
2. The Omniway Note's Acceleration Clause Does Not Bar Genger's Enforcement Claim
Res judicata bars claims that parties could have raised in prior actions. However, that parties in privity with Genger could have brought a claim to enforce missed interest payments on the Omniway Note prior to 2008 does not mean that they were required to bring claims arising from Sharon's prospective default on payments not yet due in 2008. While the Omniway Note gave the payee the option to accelerate payments, it did not require the payee to do so. Genger retained the option to allow the Note's principal to continue accumulating interest rather than cutting his losses and suing for enforcement of the lesser amount due in 2007. That he exercised this right does not require this Court to deny him the benefit of the bargain.
Moreover, the confusion surrounding Omniway's role in the Canadian real estate venture calls into question whether any of the plaintiffs in the 2007 lawsuit could have raised the issue of the Omniway Note in that litigation. As recently as 2011, Sharon denied knowledge of the Omniway Note. Moreover, extensive discovery efforts throughout this litigation and a sanction from this Court precluding Sharon from testifying regarding the existence of the Omniway Note were necessary to establish the Note's existence. Accordingly, denying Genger the opportunity to litigate the Note's enforcement in the case at hand would deprive a litigant of the chance to bring a claim rather than preserve the finality of a previous judgment.
3. Res Judicata Does Not Bar Genger's Claim for Indemnification and/or Contribution
Res judicata does not bar Genger's claim for indemnification and/or contribution because the claim stems from a 2011 settlement between Genger and Gusinski. Because both the indemnification
and contribution claims attempt to shift the cost of tortious conduct established in 2011 from Genger to Sharon, they could not have been brought in 2007.
B. Indemnification and/or Contribution
1. Sharon Failed to Challenge Genger's Indemnification Claim in His Motion for Summary Judgment
Sharon argues in his reply brief that the Third-Party Complaint does not state a claim for indemnification under New York law. The Court does not consider this argument because Sharon did not raise it in his motion for summary judgment.
2. Genger States a Claim for Contribution Under New York Law
Sharon also argues that the Third-Party Complaint does not plead a claim for contribution because New York law permits contribution only among joint tortfeasors. While true, the settlement giving rise to Genger's contribution claim concerned Gusinski's fraudulent conveyance action. Under New York law, fraudulent conveyance sounds in tort, not contract.  Unlike Genger's claim for enforcement of the Omniway Note, which stems from the contract itself, the claim for contribution seeks to force Sharon to share the cost of settling Gusinski's tort action. Accordingly, Genger states a claim for contribution under New York law.
For the foregoing reasons, third-party defendant's motion for summary judgment is denied. The Clerk of the Court is directed to close the motion for summary judgment. (Docket Entry # 130). A conference is scheduled for November 29 at 3:30.

By Muscle Media
Although most vegetarians consume a considerable amount of protein, they often do not absorb as much as they would on a non-vegetarian diet. This is because plant proteins are considerably less digestible than animal proteins. Animal proteins contain amino acid chains that are closer or identical to human amino acid chains.
Consuming animal proteins might yield close to a 1:1 absorption ratio. While consuming plant proteins, such as wheat, might only yield 50% of the amino acids needed to build a complete protein. Or a protein that can readily be assimilated into the human body.
In order for vegetarians to absorb a healthy amount of protein, they must consume a variety of plant proteins to form complete amino chains. By eating vegetables, legumes, seeds, nuts, fruits, and whole grains, vegetarians can increase the amount of complete proteins they create by combining a number of varieties of amino acid chains.
Vegetarians must also consume more foods that contain proteins because plant proteins are generally harder to digest. While a nutritional label may suggest that pasta has 5 grams of protein per serving; you may only be able to digest 2-3 grams of that protein, which means you must complement the pasta with other sources of protein.
In addition to natural sources of protein, vegetarians should also seek foods that are “protein-fortified”– or artificially-infused with protein.
For example, many supermarkets offer a variety “protein-fortified” pasta and bread. I have seen pasta that contains as much as 12 grams of protein per serving.
Soy milk is also a good source of protein for vegetarians. Studies on isolated soy protein show that it can be absorbed nearly as well as animal proteins. Yielding close to a 1:1 protein absorption ratio.
For non-vegan vegetarians, yogurt, milk, and eggs (which contain complete proteins) are all excellent sources of protein.
As a vegetarian you have a number of options to boost your protein intake. And you should consider taking advantage of all of them. You should diversify your food selections, drink more soy products, and eat “protein-fortified” breads and pasta.

A strain of Treponema pallidum isolated from a homosexually acquired penile chancre in Birmingham in 1979 was serially passaged in rabbits and compared with the Nichols strain. The two strains appeared identical morphologically, and no gross differences were detected on antigenic analysis by two-dimensional immunoelectrophoresis. The Birmingham strain was, however, considerably less virulent for rabbits; the number of organisms required for equivalent time of development and severity of skin lesions was 10-fold to 100-fold greater for the Birmingham than for the Nichols strain. The pathology of testicular infection was broadly similar for both strains.

Prince released a new song earlier this week called “Breakfast Can Wait,” after first causing a stir last month when he released the cover art for the song — a photo of comedian Dave Chappelle serving up a plate of hot cakes dressed up in Prince’s iconic Purple Rain costume.
The song — released through a new distribution deal with the independent Kobalt Label Services — is about someone asking their lover to stay in bed with them, instead of eating breakfast, hence the title “Breakfast Can Wait.”
And that Dave Chappelle single cover is just pure greatness. Who knew Prince had such a keen sense of humor?
Prince, who recently surprised the Internet world by joining Twitter and gained over 100,000 followers within 24 hours of his first tweet, is currently working on his upcoming album, ‘Plectrum Electrum.’

Nick later tested it again but it identified Scooter as a Renegade; unknown to the cadet it was actually working incredibly well, picking up on Renegade brainwashing. Before Nick could put two and two together Cy-Kill sent Crasher and Pincher to kill him; however, the gambit backfired as Leader-1 was able to save him and quickly realised there was definitely something up. Good work, Cy-Kill. Despite this success the Quasi-Sonic Renegade Detection Unit was - naturally - never seen again. It's the Thought that Counts

Colors and symbols have been having shamanistic power since human accepted them, so colors and symbols have been utilized by symbolizing something with the visual effects. Here are some interesting examples. There are some flowers that are taboo each country. In France, mostly carnation is not a present for someone but carnation is a flower of celebration for the "Parent's Day" in South Korea. Also, lily meaning is death in the United States and a white chrysanthemum is same meaning with lily in South Korea. Meaning of the color is different in each country.
China believes that red is very lucky color but red is the color of blood and die in South Korea. Korean thinks that if your name is written by Red-pen, you would be died. In the past, people also used a red line to erase for the name of a person who died. Sometimes In really close friends make a prank such as write friend’s name in red, means "I hate you". Of course, red is a happy color that represents the Christmas and Valentine's Day, but we do not use red color for name. In addition, the white has a dual symbolism. Regardless of the East and the West, the white means clean and pure, it is the main color of the wedding dress of bride.
On the other hand, white is the color of death. We dedicate white flowers the memorial or funeral. There are many different type of flower in each country but it is all white flowers. White lily flower in America, the white chrysanthemum in Korea, Japan is a white carnation. Especially, in the traditional funeral in Korea, Chief mourners do that in the case of women put a white ribbon as a hairpin and man attach white ribbon to the chest as a brooch during 49 days after funeral. They believe that 49 days elapsed, souls completely away from worldly life.

In an article recently published by the Wall Street Journal, “Your Body’s Witching Hours,” researchers explain how important it really is to have an entrained circadian rhythm for health and wellness. For those who are unaware, a circadian rhythm is your internal clock that controls virtually every system of the human body, from circulation and cognition to metabolism, memory and mood.
The biggest factor in the natural environment that effects the human circadian rhythm is exposure to light and darkness. This exposure to light and darkness effects the natural production of hormones that is vital for one’s well-being. With proper exposure to sunlight (specific nanometers in blue light) in the morning and throughout the day your body will produce cortisol, a stress hormone necessary for blood pressure management, reduced inflammation and a stronger immune system. At night you want no exposure to blue light because it causes your body to suppress the natural growth of melatonin, a hormone necessary for sleep and a natural antioxidant. For example, during the shorter days of the winter months, your body may produce melatonin either earlier or later in the day than usual; furthermore, this change in melatonin levels can lead to symptoms of seasonal affective disorder (SAD), or winter depression. When the photoreceptors within the human eye notice the elimination of blue light in the environment signals are sent to the brain to produce melatonin which prepares the body for sleep and natural defense against various diseases.
With cortisol and melatonin levels in mind, we developed the WalaLightTM System to produce the ideal circadian rhythm light conditions for indoor environments that is necessary for proper exposure of light and circadian rhythms levels, day and night. The WalaLightTM is engineered to hit the exact nanometers of blue light required for the natural secretion of cortisol and suppression of melatonin throughout the day. Furthermore, the WalaLightsTM at night time have the ability to adjust Kelvin temperature to a very warm and relaxing level eliminating blue light which initiates the natural secretion of melatonin. With the use of our dlux Pro control system the lights throughout a facility will adjust automatically over a 24-hour period to create the ideal environment for healthy cortisol and melatonin levels.

Mumbai: Bandra to get 50 devices for instant aid to cardiac patients
Mumbai city news: Doctors from the Holy Family Hospital and Medical Research Centre will install the devices at spots across the area where most people can access thembhopal Updated: Jun 23, 2017 00:39 IST
One of two people who suffer sudden cardiac incidents does not make it to a hospital as first aid is delayed.
What could help? Making more defibrillators, or devices that help restart the heart, available in the vicinity. Bandra is experimenting with a project, where 50 defibrillators will be set up in public places.
Doctors from the Holy Family Hospital and Medical Research Centre will install the devices at spots across the area where most people can access them.
“Sudden cardiac arrests (SCA) can happen to anyone, anytime and anywhere. There is no way to predict when someone will develop it,” said cardiologist Dr Brian Lobo, during the launch of the pilot project called ‘i CARE, or cardiac arrest resuscitation for everyone’.
Dr Yash Lokhandwala, a cardiologist at the hospital, said 40% to 50% of patients with sudden cardiac arrest die because they do not receive emergency medical aid. “With every passing minute, the chances of survival reduce by 10%. Bystanders need to be quick to recognise the symptoms and perform the cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and defibrillation,” he said.
“The process of giving CPR and defibrillation has to go on till medical help arrives,” said Dr Khusrav Bajan, head of emergency services at PD Hinduja Hospital, Mahim. Currently, all defibrillators come with pre-recorded instructions in English. The device costs between Rs60,000 and Rs1 lakh.
Lokhandwala said in India, less than 1% who have a sudden cardiac arrest outside the hospital survive. “In Mumbai, the delay in reaching a hospital is inevitable. This is another reason why everyone must know CPR and defibrillation,” Dr Lokhandwala said.

It is time to make everyone believe in Santa Claus, as Father Christmas is in fact a real person, but he doesn’t reside in the North Pole – he lives on Long Island.
Mr. Claus, who was born Frank, legally changed his name to Santa Claus over 20 years ago and his wife of 23 years is perfectly fine with it.
He spoke to Great Big Story and told them his wife gave him her blessing: “She said: ‘As long as I don’t have to change my name, go right ahead.’”
The Long Island man is a nontraditional Mr. Claus; instead of a sleigh he drives a black pickup truck with customized plates.
He also has three tattoos of himself, loves barbecue and is into zombies.
The Long Island version of Santa Claus also customizes his costumes and claims to be on thousands of refrigerators since he poses professionally as the character.
“I am the most loved person on the planet,” he said.

Gorgeous ending. It was a great fic.
| Jarahfan 10/8/06 . chapter 4
Whoa so Catherine's past is coming back to haunt her? You threw me through a bit of a loop with the start of this chapter. I didn't realize it was a flashback. So is this how Catherine met Grissom? I don't know if the writer's ever touched that. Off to read chapter 5. It's a great story so far.
| Jarahfan 10/8/06 . chapter 3
Great chapter. I loved Lindsey's question to Warrick. I loved how he answered it matter of factly with her. Not why he was there but when he got there. I could see that conversation between them. I wonder who is terrorizing Catherine's mother? I love how protective Warrick is of them. I am so enjoying this. Off to read chapter 4.

It has been shown to be effective for people who experience frequent and high levels of distress and find hospital and community treatment do not meet their needs and aspirations.
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy combines the best of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy with Zen concepts like acceptance and mindfulness. It was developed in the late 1980s by American psychologist Marsha M. Linehan as a better way of treating people with Borderline Personality Disorder and chronic self-harm/suicidal behaviours. DBT is now routinely used to treat a wide range of different and co-occuring mental health problems.
Our programme offers six placements in a 24 hour-staffed heritage home on spacious private grounds in Golden Bay. The treatment includes twice weekly individual therapy sessions with intensively trained DBT clinicians, multiple skills classes, skills practice groups and 24/7 access to DBT coaches.
There are also opportunities to apply the therapeutic learning through shared living, daily skills groups, household management, recreation and vocational coaching.

I went to East Putney yesterday to visit my friend Kaila and to pick up my flat keys from her (she was kind enough to feed our cats while Jason was in Canada last week). Putney is a really nice area and reminds me just how big London is.
While in Putney I bought a hairdryer from Boots. Check that off my list of to-dos. Boots actually reminds me of the mid 80’s doing weekend shopping with Mom and stopping off at the Yonge Eglinton centre to go to Boots. I think it’s a Pharma Plus in the Y&E centre now.
Ah! Forgot to mention about my trip to Putney I decided to yet again take the bus back to Kings Cross, because well, sitting at the top of a double decker bus feels a bit like a scenic tour and this way I can see how the different neighbourhoods are connected. First bus was excellent, got to Knightsbridge in no time, made mental note that Chelsea and South Kensington is a fantastic area. At Knightsbridge i resisted the temptation to go into Harrods and walked for a bit beside Hyde Park enjoying the weather. The weather has been spectacular. Today is the 4th day in a row of brilliant blue skies, sun and spring weather. I picked up my second bus that would take me to Kings Cross, the number 10. Interesting that the night bus, the N10 goes from Putney to Kings Cross, but in the day time the 10 goes no where near Putney. Odd. But good to know that a solid night bus exists to take me back home after visiting Kaila, Jenny and their boys. Anyway, the number 10 bus goes through Oxford Circus. This was a big mistake. At 5pm, and actually I suppose at anytime of the day, Oxford Street is a zoo. I spent over 45 minutes on Oxford Street alone! I probably should have spent the extra 50p and taken the tube.

Harry Z, Holmstrom called up
In a tweet from the Philadelphia Inquirer's Sam Carchidi, it appears the Flyers have made a couple of moves.
"Holmstrom, Harry Z on ice with Flyers, who have been hit by injuries. Is Walker going down to ADR?"
Though it most likely won't be officially announced tomorrow, the Flyers have sent little-used defenseman Matt Walker packing and headed to Adirondack while recalling forwards Harry Zolnierczyk and Ben Holmstrom.
The moves for Zolnierczyk and Holmstrom make sense seeing as forwards Danny Briere and Matt Read will not play in Wednesday's game at Buffalo. Read will not play in Thursday's home game against the Devils but Briere is a possibility to return.
In his only NHL game of his career, Zolnierczyk registered his first career goal in the Flyers 7-2 rout of the Ottawa Senators on October 18. Holmstrom is making his first appearances of the season, playing in two games last season without registering a point.
In Adirondack, Zolnierczyk has five goals and four assists in 10 games. Holmstrom, who is the captain of the Phantoms, has only four assists in eight games played this season in the AHL.
Chris Pronger was also placed on the seven-day IR retroactive to last Tuesday and is eligible to come off today. But the captain won't come off of IR today, freeing up a roster spot for the Flyers which they used to bring up the second forward.
Pronger is seeing an eye doctor today. At the very best, the captain could be back on the ice tomorrow, skating for the first time since taking a stick to the eye last Monday.
With the moves today, the Flyers now have 23 players and have $392,000 of cap room.


I’m reaching out as a last resort here, and hoping for any help.
I’m attempting to setup my moog little phatty tribute to transmit/receive midi to Cubase 6.
I have had no problems connecting, setting up and using two other midi devices (AKAI MPK25 and a Roland GAIA) as they both use MIDI over USB, and seem to be much less complicated to setup and use.
I’m working with Cubase 6 on windows, I’ve got a Steinberg MR816x as my audio i/o and a MOTU midi express XT over USB for MIDI. Midi Port setup recognizes the MOTU and all it’s i/o’s.
I’ve set up the moog as a GM midi device, and selected the appropriate output I have also added it as an external instrument in VST connections and linked it with the associated midi device.
I can transmit audio from the little phatty, which cubase recognizes, but no midi data. Once I have selected the little phatty as a VST instrument, with an associated MIDI track and correctly selected the correct i/o’s in the window on the left, that is when I am stuck. I can play audio as I’ve said, but no midi data appears, and when I attempt to record, no data is transmitted.
Midi out/in and in/out connected with the MOTU with brand new midi cables. When I play keys on the little phatty it registers (lights up) on the MOTU when midi data is supposedly being transmitted to cubase, but cubase doesn’t seem to know anything about it.
I have the MOTU set to the factory setting of sequencer 30fps as suggested by the MOTU user manual, but I have experimented with other settings as well, with no success.
Here are some of the various settings I have played around in Cubase to no avail…
I have tried both checking and unchecking “Use System Timestamp for ‘Windows Midi’ Imputs”
I have checked and unchecked 'Midi Thru active" in MIDI preferences as well as setting local on and off on the little phatty. When I keep local on, I can hear the audio transmit in cubase, but when I turn it off there is no audio and no midi data.
I have tried both Internal timecode and MIDI timecode in project syncronization setup as well as synching in/out all midi ports and/or individual ports in MIDI clock destinations
I have tried recording the little phatty as a VST instrument, as an instrument or as a midi track from the project add track. I believe I should be using it as a VST instrument though…
Hmmm. That’s about all I can think of right now.
Any help appreciated.


Simon & Schuster have released a book detailing the lives, loves and tragedies of England’s oldest family of cats in people clothes, Downton Tabby, by Chris Kelly. It is of course a delightfully fancy parody of the immensely popular Downton Abbey television drama.

This 5/8 razor of Kayser Ellison silver steel bears the blade marking “English Razor” with a satin finish. The faux horn scales are of composite, probably celluloid and have a third pin for additional stability. The blade has a plain spine, jimping to the lower tang and fluting to the sides of the upper tang. An attractive razor in really excellent condition.
This razor was made from Silver Steel produced by Sheffield company Kayser Ellison but would have been made for some other manufacturer or for sale by an independent retailer. The razor is a full hollow with a blade marking of “English Razor” with arrow heads either side of the words. It has jimping to the lower tang, and fluting to the sides of the upper tang. The tang itself bears the legend “Made from Kayser Ellison & Co’s Best Sheffield Silver Steel” on one side.
The company Keyser, Ellison and Co was created in 1893 following the dissolution of the partnership between Charles William Kayser, Joseph Bramhall Ellison, and Simeon Hayes. They operated at the Carlisle Works in Sheffield and later at the larger Darnell works. The company produced steel throughout the war and inter-war years producing munitions as well as steel for cutlery and razors, continuing throughout the 20th century. They became Sanderson Keyser in 1960 after a merger with Sanderson Brothers and Newbould. They were one of only a few companies who were not subject to nationalisation and continued producing steel up until 2004 when they entered voluntary liquidation.

Group would like to see a new Uttlesford country park, and replanted avenues of trees
- Credit: Stop Easton Park
Restoring an ancient park to its former glory could create a new country park for Uttlesford, with four avenues of replanted trees, and a perimeter exercise track for running, cycling and horse riding among the ideas.
Residents’ action group Stop Easton Park (SEP) wants to protect the land from development. The group was originally set up to resist proposals to build houses on the site.
The draft Local Plan was then withdrawn and Uttlesford District Council has now called for suitable sites for homes for a new Plan.
SEP has released a vision document which has been sent out to groups and organisations seeking feedback on their idea.
They have a vision of four avenues of trees being restored to the “patte d’oie” style, a 6km track around the edge, and new woodlands planted.
Existing businesses would continue, while former World War Two huts could be transformed into a museum.
Vincent Thompson, a spokesman for Stop Easton Park, said they believe a new country park is a better idea.

- 8 Ben & Jerry's ice cream sold at Sainsbury's recalled due to health concerns
- 9 Pictures: The Great Dunmow Summer Solstice Sundown Festival
- 10 Stansted Airport and Cambridge trains disrupted after tree falls on tracks
“Putting a track around the outside – a 6km route – would be wonderful.
“It’s so much in line with endless health benefits, with physical exercise and mental health.”
Mr Thompson said an agreement made in 1939 with what is now Uttlesford District Council is able to limit development to 10 homes.
The land originally formed part of the Easton Lodge estate and is referenced in records dating back to 1302.
The site was designated as a nature reserve in 1937. In 1942, 10,000 trees were removed to build an airfield for the USAAF 386th Bomber Squadron, The Crusaders.
SEP thinks a partial restoration could be achieved at a modest cost, most of which could be recouped by grants.
Members of Great Dunmow Town Council’s planning committee last week noted the vision document.
The land is owned by property management company LandSec. They said they will wait to see the proposal before commenting.
An Uttlesford District Council spokesman said: “Uttlesford District Council is starting work on a new Local Plan and will consider all proposals put forward. The council has been made aware of the proposal from Stop Easton Park.”

The start of the Nike Football Training Camp season and other top offseason events across the country means that there is movement in recruiting industry rankings. This week, five within the top 100 saw their stock rise.
This year's Los Angeles Nike Football Training Camp was loaded with elite recruits- many of the best at their positions nationally for the 2015 cycle. Almost without exception, the highly-touted prospects performed at a high level.
West Virginia has the current No. 5 class nationally and the No. 1 class in the Big 12 for 2015 according to 247Sports team rankings. The key to the Mountaineers early success, and perhaps their program's overall recruiting efforts, is talent-rich south Florida.
The 2014 cycle had Tennessee and Kentucky. It was Ole Miss in 2013. For 2015- the surprise storyline could very well be Mississippi State, which currently has a top 10 class and potentially more on the way.
It's no secret that under Urban Meyer, Ohio State has continuously added speed to its roster through recruiting. For the Class of 2015, the Buckeyes will look to do the same and possibly land their backfield of the future.
This past weekend featured several commits of significance for the 2015 cycle -- including a trio at Penn State, where James Franklin and staff held a junior day that paid immediate dividends and could pay more in the very near future.

Is your drinking leading to binge drinking? If you want to check whether you are on your way to alcohol addiction or not yet, here are some of the signs that you have to consider.
- If you see drinking alcohol as a form of relaxation
- One of the alarming signs that will tell if you are becoming highly dependent on alcohol is when you see it as a form of relaxation. If you feel pleasure every time you and your friends drink, this is one way of justifying that you can eventually become addicted to alcohol.
- Your tolerance level to alcohol increased
- Another sign that will confirm you are becoming dependent on alcohol is when your tolerance level has increased. For example, if before you only drink occasionally to socialize, but as you consumed large amounts of alcohol, your tolerance increases. Now you need to double or triple the amounts in order to get that feeling of pleasure.
- You become dependent on alcohol
- This is a critical period wherein a person becomes dependent on alcohol and abuses. When this happens, you developed the desire to drink on a daily basis which is unhealthy and could result to bigger problems like missing your family obligations, not going to work because of the aftermath of heaving drinking as well as ruining relationships with people you love.
What is alcoholism?
The continuous dependency on alcohol is called “alcoholism” wherein the affected person is both physically and mentally addicted to drinking alcohol. If the signs of your alcohol dependency are no longer stoppable and you keep craving for this substance, drinking alcohol has now become a life forming habit that you have to live on a daily basis. You see a day without alcohol as a dull day with no life. If this continues to affect your overall well being, you are in total chaos to yourself and to the people around you.
When to seek residential alcohol rehab treatment?
- If you come to terms that this addiction to alcohol must come to end, this gives you the strength to seek professional help and avail alcohol rehab treatment.
- If most of your productive time is already spent on drinking heavily.
- If your alcohol cravings are too much and already affecting your life, work and relationship with others.
- You become a source of grief to people close to you like friends, family and colleagues at work.
- You are still in the denial stage that you are addicted to alcohol.
How to locate a credible residential alcohol rehab treatment facility?
There are many ways to locate a credible residential alcohol rehab facility and among them are:
- Do online search by using relevant keywords such as “residential drug rehab” and narrow your list of candidates to a few.
- Ask referrals from clubs or organizations in your area focused in helping people suffering to alcohol addiction.
- Check online residential drug rehab centers offering different type of rehab programs to treat alcoholism.
- Read reviews, comments and testimonials of clients who availed alcohol rehab treatment programs.
- Visit forum sites whose thread of discussions revolving around rehabilitation treatment centers and professionals offering advice to alcohol dependents.
What to look for a residential alcohol treatment facility?
Once you managed to locate a residential alcohol treatment facility, be sure you take into consideration the following areas before enrolling yourself or any loved one suffering from alcohol addiction:
- The rehab facility must be well maintained.
- The ambiance must project a serene environment ideal for patients undergoing detoxification and rehabilitation.
- The professional employed must be highly trained and hold valid licenses to offer their services and expert advice.
- Various treatment programs must be offered to patients with different levels of alcohol addiction.
- Flexible payment terms to accommodate patients with limited funds.
Undergoing alcohol rehab treatment can be a challenging journey, but with the presence of a top performing residential alcohol rehab center and your strong commitment to become sober, you are a step closer to getting yourself cured from alcohol dependency. Remember, not all who entered have become successful, so stay focused and do everything to win this battle.

Severn, Ontario’s Ron Fountain was tired of the hassle. Fed up with the fight. Weary of the war. With a 9-second capable but non-caged 1970 Nova that he had street raced for years, every time he went to the track he’d get scolded for having a car that lacked the necessary safety equipment for its speed. Compounding the problem was the fact that the street racing scene had all but dried up and the nearest track was three hours away. “So going for one or two passes (before being shut down by track safety personnel) was no fun.” He needed a better solution. “I decided that it was time to build a car I could take to the track, meet all the rules, and as a bonus keep me safe,” he said. “I’d always loved first-gen Camaros, so I started looking for a small tire/stock suspension car that I could race in a lot of different classes,” he added.
That search ended when a clean, bare metal basket case located some 7 hours away popped up on the internet one day.

In June 2022, a ransomware gang, LockBit, claimed it hacked one of the largest cyber companies, Mandiant, and threatened to release stolen data. When the hacking group’s countdown clock expired, instead of posting stolen files, the hackers slammed Mandiant for research it published about the gang’s origins.
Ransomware gangs frequently seek to use journalists and security researchers to advance their aims. Data Science Institute associate research scholar Susan McGregor studies security and privacy issues affecting journalists. She connected with Tim Starks of The Washington Post’s “The Cybersecurity 202” newsletter to discuss when to publish a ransomware group’s claims.
“Susan McGregor, a Columbia University scholar focused on the intersection of security and journalism, cautioned against ‘celebritizing’ hackers. She advised journalists to consider the news value of reporting on an individual ransomware attack. The Colonial Pipeline hack was worth reporting as ‘millions and millions’ of people depended on that system, but a ransomware attack on a site where people post personal fetishes probably wouldn’t warrant a story, according to McGregor.
McGregor, Liska and Cuiujuclu all advised that journalists contact the alleged victims of hacks, even as they acknowledged victims have a motive to lie about being attacked, too. That’s why journalists should also branch out to other potential sources to discuss a ransomware incident.“


40 S&W – 165 gr HST JHP – Federal Premium Law Enforcement – 50 Rounds
Federal’s Premium Law Enforcement HST line of JHP duty ammunition offers massive expansion! This duty load has a pre-skived bullet tip which causes the bullet to expand into large petals that cause a large permanent wound cavity. The unique design of this bullet actually forces the lead petals during expansion to protect the copper petals behind them. This results in increased weight retention allowing it to still achieve deep penetration through a variety of barriers prescribed by the FBI test protocols.165 gr HST JHP
During tests of the 9×19mm and .45 ACP ammunition, the FBI Firearms Training Unit’s special agent-in-charge, John Hall, decided to include tests of the 10mm Auto cartridge, supplying his own Colt Delta Elite 10mm semi-automatic, and personally handloaded ammunition. The FBI’s tests revealed that a 170–180 gr (11.0–11.7 g) JHP 10mm bullet, propelled between 900–1,000 ft/s (270–300 m/s), achieved desired terminal performance without the heavy recoil associated with conventional 10mm ammunition (1,300–1,400 ft/s (400–430 m/s)). The FBI contacted Smith & Wesson and requested it to design a handgun to FBI specifications, based on the existing large-frame Smith & Wesson Model 4506 .45 ACP handgun, that would reliably function with the FBI’s reduced-velocity 10 mm ammunition. During this collaboration with the FBI, S&W realized that downsizing the 10mm full power to meet the FBI’s medium velocity specification meant less powder and more airspace in the case. They found that by removing the airspace they could shorten the 10mm case enough to fit within their medium-frame 9mm handguns and load it with a 180 gr (11.7 g) JHP bullet to produce ballistic performance identical to the FBI’s reduced-velocity 10mm cartridge. S&W then teamed with Winchester to produce a new cartridge, the .40 S&W. It uses a small pistol primer whereas the 10mm cartridge uses a large pistol primer.165 gr HST JHP
This product is brand new, nickel plated brass-cased, boxer-primed, non-corrosive, and reloadable.
This is top of the line, American-made defense ammo made by ATK (same company that makes Speer Lawman, CCI, Blazer Brass, etc). This product is designed for Law Enforcement and occasionally made available to the general public through police trade-ins.

Lehigh rolls past Sacred Heart for first win
Posted: September 16, 2003
Fairfield, CT – Lehigh used an 18-point effort from sophomore Carli Toliver to catapult the Mountain Hawks to a 65-50 win over Sacred Heart (1-1) at the Pitt Center Tuesday night. Lehigh (1-1) earned its first win over Sacred Heart since the 1998-99 season.
Toliver got the offense going, nailing two 3-pointers in the game’s first ten minutes. Junior Cat Nicholson also had a hot hand, finishing the night with 13. Lehigh used the Sacred Heart zone to fire up shots from the outside.
When the Pioneers pressured the wings, the Mountain Hawks turned to junior Anne Tierney in the post. The co-captain finished with 14 points and 8 rebounds on the night. Lehigh was also strong from the free throw line. The Mountain Hawks made 27 free throws on the night in the win.
"I thought we did a much better job defensively tonight," said head coach Sue Troyan following the win. "We forced play on the defensive end a little more tonight and that worked to our advantage."
Leslie Newhard paced the Pioneers, scoring a team high of 14. Kate Maher finished with 10 points in a losing effort.
The Mountain Hawks head to Stabler Arena to host the Christmas City Classic this weekend. Lehigh hosts Elon on Saturday at 3:30 p.m. in the first round.

Tribune News Service
Solan, August 26
The state’s first purified water ATM will be installed soon at Jharmajri village in the industrial hub of Baddi.
A Mohali firm will install the machine. The machine will help provide purified and chilled water to people at a nominal cost of Re 1 for 300 ml, Rs 2 for 1 litre and Rs 15 for 20 litre.
Since the availability of clean drinking water to people is a challenge in Baddi-Barotiwala-Nalagarh (BBN) which is marred by pollution, this ATM will provide a viable option.
The idea was mooted by Lalit Jain, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Baddi Barotiwala Nalagarh Development Authority (BBNDA). Space has been allotted to the company at Jharmajri for five years.
Jain said they planned to install at least 100 such ATMs in the BBN after gauging the success of the first machine.
An official of the company said the purified water ATM was a coin-operated water vending machine, with an in-built water purifier and chiller.
“The machine uses raw water and converts it into clean drinking water as per the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) specifications,” he said.
He said the machine also had an inbuilt provision for washing and cleaning of 20 litre jar with an automatic jar washing and cleaning machine.
“There is also a provision for the storage of 500 litre raw water and 500 litre purified chilled water keeping in mind the gap between the demand and supply of water,” he said.
He said they started working on the machine three years back after studying the report of the World Health Organisation (WHO) on the contaminated ground water in Baddi. Hence, they decided to come out with a bigger machine.
“We started working on the portability of the machine and introduced its smaller. The ATM is now a plug and play model that can be customised as per the space and need. It’s portable and handy to install easily,” he said.
It is priced at Rs 5.5 lakh and the revenue generated by the daily collection will take care of its operation and maintenance.
The company has also designed and manufactured water ATM machine as per the railways specifications and will be installed at railway stations all over the country.

Don't look down! World's 'scariest' and highest suspension bridge opens 1,500ft above a glacier in the Swiss Alps
- The bridge is almost 10,000ft above sea level
- The structure cost £1 million to build, is 330ft long and 3ft wide
- At its official opening a snowstorm hid what lay beneath to visitors
The world's scariest bridge has been opened - a pedestrian walkway suspended 1,500ft above a glacier in the Swiss Alps.
Engineers have spent the past five months building the Titlis Cliff Walk, Europe's highest suspension bridge at 9,000ft above sea level.
The structure, which cost £1 million, is 330ft long but just 3ft wide and sits a vertigo-inducing 1,500ft above a glacier.

High-rise: The bridge is certainly a daring expedition to take for those thrill seekers
Up for the challenge? The scariest bridge in the world - a pedestrian walkway suspended 1,500ft above a glacier in the Swiss Alps
What a sight: Visitors to the suspension bridge admire the view, 1,500ft above a glacier
And on its grand opening a huge snow storm reduced visibility to just a few feet - leaving visitors with no idea of what lay beneath them.
The impressive bridge on Mount Titlis was built to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the opening of a cableway which joined the towns of Engelberg and Gerschnialp in January 1913.
Construction work was an extreme challenge for engineers, with working hours determined by the weather conditions.
Peter Reinle, from Titlis Cable Cars, said: 'Everyone was very impressed by the bridge.
'It opened in a real snow storm which made it an adventure for everyone who crossed it.'
Swiss delight: Highest suspension bridge in Europe, in Switzerland, at the top of Titlis at an altitude of 3238 meters above sea level
Hard work: Engineers have spent the past five months building the Titlis Cliff Walk
Not an easy task: It can't have been easy for the builders erecting the bridge

Seoul: North Korea has fired two ballistic missiles into the sea off the east coast, Seoul's military says, three days after Pyongyang staged a similar launch.
"The North fired two missiles into the East Sea (Sea of Japan) at about 5am from the country's east coast," a defence ministry spokesman told AFP.
He declined to elaborate on the type of the missile. But Yonhap news agency, citing a military official, said they were short-range Scud missiles with a range of about 500km.

Dores Highland village offering plenty of outdoor activities making great use of Lochness and only 8 miles south west of the city of Inverness, this small village of Dores has access to the waters edge and beach offering some of the magnificent views from this side of the Loch that changes with every season.
On a calm day, strange mirages can be seen on the distant horizon, ( could this be Nessy ) and when the prevailing wind's blow they whip the whole Loch into a a frenzy of waves.
The loch heads towards Fort Augustus, with the steep sides of the Great Glen fault rising over 1000 feet on each side. The road going south from the village of Dores towards Inverness has attractive views of the water and trees, while another road climbs steeply out of the village of Dores to a ridge above Loch Ness with impressive views over the water to the castle.
