America's Doctor: Regina Benjamin, MD
By Cristina Goyanes
The U.S. surgeon general, Regina Benjamin, MD, knows how hard it is to squeeze exercise into a busy schedule. In the year since she took office, she's been on the road three to four days a week. But still she manages to make time to work out, and she's determined to help all Americans do the same. "Exercise is the new medicine. It will make you feel a lot better," says Dr. Benjamin, who puts on her sneakers and walks around the airport when she's between flights. "If you do 30 minutes a day, you get so many benefits."
To launch her get-moving mission, last January she released "The Surgeon General's Vision for a Healthy and Fit Nation," her grassroots plan for combating the obesity epidemic. Among other things, she has called on employers to encourage physical activity through group classes at work, on physicians to talk to patients about how their weight can affect their health, and on families to become more active and limit TV viewing to two hours a day.
"I want to move from a negative conversation about disease to a positive conversation about being healthy and fit," Dr. Benjamin explains. "We need to stop bombarding people with what they can't do and start talking about what they enjoy doing." Take walking, one of Dr. Benjamin's favorite activities: Last June in Baltimore, she kicked off an initiative called the Surgeon General's Walk for a Healthy and Fit Nation, the first of many such walks she will do with citizens throughout the country. Off the clock, she's an avid hiker who did a rim-to-rim trek through the Grand Canyon last fall.
To set the nation on a path to better health, Dr. Benjamin is heading a council of government experts to develop a national prevention strategy that will be released in March. "This is the first time that the entire government is attempting to make it easier for Americans to be healthy," she says. "It has become everyone's issue."

I like Jillian Michaels and feel that she has inspired a lot of people. I have bought her videos just to motivate me to start any kind of activity routine her messages kept me motivated to at least start some kind of routine.1/24/2011 05:53:55 PM Report Abuse
Great to see Roseanna here, her work is truly valuable. It would be nice if there were a link to her organization: http://www.womenofmeans.org1/2/2011 03:51:05 PM Report Abuse
Giving any kind of Fitness industry award to Jillian Michael is an outrage to the entire industry. Her limited knowledge in numerous aspects of fitness are legendary. Her certifications are suspect. Her pulling a seat off a Spinning bike while somebody was riding as well as her kettlebell video is a legendary FAIL.12/21/2010 02:23:15 PM Report Abuse

Hammered Satin Side-Draped Dress with Bow Detail Style VW360050 11 11
PERFECT FIT So I read some reviews and since all of them were really good, I instantly ordered this dress. I wore size 4 for my bridal gown last year, and size 2 for another bridsmaid dress but the breast area was so lose and needed alteration. For thisone I risked getting size 0 trying to avoid alteration and IT FIT PERFECT. It is my favorite dress by far. Just keep in mind that it is a shiny fabric. so yes when I opened the box I decided I hate the fabric. but as soon as I put it on, I started loving it. September 4, 2014
Best dress from White bridesmaids i bought it in champagne color, and it looks really expencieve. 0 size is great for my hips whish is 93cm or so ( i was afraid it will not fit) for my 165cm height it's not so above the knees as on the picture., a bit lower July 30, 2013
Lovely I am the maid of honor in a wedding and we each picked out a different dress! I fits great! I cant wait to wear it! I love it! I also plan to re wear it in a military ball. Great dress. March 13, 2013
Amazing dress As mother of the bride I wanted to be outstanding and classy but not detract from the real show, my daughter. I had no budget and looked at all the high end department stores and boutiques and felt disappointed. I'm in great shape and can wear most anything but I wasn't feeling it with the dresses out there. Came across this dress in an ad in a bridal mag and couldn't get it out of mind. On a whim I dropped into the store while running an errand and tried it on. WOW. Drop dead gorgeous bought the willow color, had some minor adjustments done and most important had the bow stuffed with matching tulle so it stood up. Other than the bride I was drop dead gorgeous.lol $158.00 and a dress I'll wear many more times. Bought you know who's outrageously expensive shoes and some fabulous jewelry and the compliments are still coming in. Will be checking out Vera's other dresses for this year's holiday parties and other special events. December 11, 2012

We are a family owned and operated business. We primarily serve Philadelphia, Bucks and Montgomery County with two stores. Our main store is located at York and Almshouse Roads in Jamison, PA with our second store on East Main Street in Norristown, PA. We carry a large selection of equipment including Ariens, Cub Cadet, Echo, Exmark, Honda Power Equipment, Red-Max, Scag, Stihl and Toro.
Star Lawnmower opened in Germantown, PA in 1897. Before the internal combustion engine was used on lawnmowers, Star Lawnmower sharpened and maintained the horse drawn and hand push reel mowers used to maintain estates and parks in the Germantown section of Philadelphia. The business grew with the development of self-propelled gasoline powered lawnmowers. In 1965 William (Bill) Wiley and his brother Jesse opened a second store in Jamison, PA to take advantage of the emerging suburban area of Philadelphia. In 1986 Mike, Brian, Pat and Chris Wiley (Jesse's sons) opened a third location in the Norristown area to service the suburbs in Montgomery County. Today we are proud to serve you in both Norristown and Jamison.

Yellow Head Sleeper Goby
The Yellowhead Sleeper Goby is also known as Pennant Glider.It rarely will become aggressive towards other fish, but is territorial, and will fight with its own kind. It feeds off the bottom as it sifts through the sand eating mouthfuls of substrate and the food that lives within the sand. When it does this, it keeps the substrate well oxygenated.

Kanstul 902-4C Series 4-Valve 3/4 CC TubaThe Kanstul 902 / 4C CC Concert Tuba features a .689-inch bore with 4 front action valves designed for a warm, rich tone. The 902 / 4C also feature a 16-inch upright bell.
Order today with the no-risk assurance of our Total Satisfaction and Low Price Guarantees!
This horn is beautiful. I bought mine from my tuba professor, after him owning it for 9 years. It still looks brand new. The low register is smooth, and the upper register sings. This tuba is heavier than you would think, which helps give it a sound that rivals many 4/4 horns. On mine at least though, the G below middle C is constantly sharp, and the 2nd valve slide is very difficult to reach. But for sheer playability, this is an excellent horn for any quintet, brass band, concert band, or wind ensemble. My professor even managed to make it work in the Symphony Orchestra that he is in.
Great things do come in small packages, and Kanstul has delivered with this horn. Small and compact, but it still has weight and a definite mass to the horn. The work that was put into the R&D of this horn has paid off as I haven't found a similar horn (under 8-10k) that sounds like these horns do. A friend bought a Bb Kanstul from a friend and the two of us sound so alike that it is scary at times. Best horn I have found for the money.
The only down side of the horn is two placements of tuning, both for the Main Tuning slide (a little long and hard to get out to clean), and the 2nd valve tuning slide (really hard to get to b/c it is in the middle of everything).
Last thing, if you can afford the 5-Valve, get it. It is the best investment I made.
* Price guarantee valid on all new in-stock merchandise sold by an authorized U.S. Dealer. Guarantee does not apply to discontinued, blemished, damaged, closeout, open box, refurbished or auction items. You will be contacted via email shortly after submission of request.

Here's how the wheels of the supersonic car are made
When you're trying to build the fastest car in human history, like the guys making the Bloodhound SSC, you have to make wheels that basically re-invent the wheel. To reach 1000mph and go supersonic, the wheels they're using weigh over 230 pounds, nearly 3 feet wide and spin four times faster than a F1 car. »

Women in Diplomacy
Date: 25-26 August 2011
Venue:Conference room C, United Nations Headquarters, New York
Coordinator: Ms. Helene Gandois
To register, please visit the catalogue page.
Historically, the participation of women in international affairs and diplomacy has been limited. Until recently, women occupy only a small share of senior leadership positions in the United Nations system and in government hierarchies, including the diplomatic services. In an effort to achieve gender balance, Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon has called for the entire United Nations system to "redouble its efforts through adopting new policies where none exist and more rigorously implement existing ones". Since 2007, the number of women holding positions at senior management level in the United Nations has increased by 40%. With regard to female ambassadors to the United Nations, the share has increased from 5.7% in 2000 to 12.5% in 2008, still remaining low overall.
The under-representation of women has been recognized by the international community, amongst others, through the adoption of Security Council resolution 1325 (2000), urging Member States to amplify the voice of women on issues of peace and security by increasing their representation at all decision-making levels. The Platform for Action adopted at the Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing stresses that the active participation of women in decision-making positions, coupled with the incorporation of women's perspectives at the policy formulation level, are indispensable components to achieving equality, development and peace. These developments mark an opportune time for female diplomats to assess challenges faced by women in aspiring to leadership positions in the diplomatic context and to identify and train skills suitable to address such gender-specific challenges, in particular in the area of negotiations and leadership.
This workshop aims to 1) create a space for reflection on challenges women face in advancing in institutional hierarchies; 2) promote career development of women in junior and mid-level positions through skills acquisition; and 3) provide participants with insights and experiences from other female diplomats.
At the end of this workshop, participants will have:
- Acquired an overview of different gender approaches;
- Analysed gender specificities and gender differences in negotiation, leadership, and communication styles;
- Addressed the cultural and institutional challenges facing women in aspiring to senior-level responsibility in the multilateral context;
- Enhanced relevant skills to assume leadership positions and active roles in multilateral diplomacy.
Organized over two full days, the workshop will take an interactive, participatory and practice‐oriented approach, involving practical exercises, case studies, interactive lectures, and peer‐to‐peer learning. The workshop will be conducted in English and facilitated by Ms. Florrie Darwin, Lecturer on Law at the Harvard Law School, and Ms. Constance Morris Hope, Certified Trainer and Facilitator. Ms. Bachelet, Executive Director, United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women) will open the workshop. Other prominent guest speakers from the United Nations system, academia and Member States will contribute perspectives on gender-approaches to negotiation, leadership and communication. A workbook with reference documents will be provided to all participants.
All participants who successfully complete the workshop will receive a UNITAR Certificate of Participation.
This workshop is intended for female delegates of permanent missions to the United Nations in New York. Registration is limited to 25 persons, with priority given to delegates from developing and least developed countries, and to delegates who have completed UNITAR's module I course on "Effective Negotiation in Multilateral Conferences" or comparable offers. Selected participants are requested to regard their participation as a firm commitment.

In common law systems, a superior court is a court of general competence which typically has unlimited jurisdiction with regard to civil and criminal legal cases. A superior court is "superior" relative to a court with limited jurisdiction (see lower court), which is restricted to civil cases involving monetary amounts with a specific limit, or criminal cases involving offenses of a less serious nature. A superior court may hear appeals from lower courts (see court of appeal).
Superior Courts in Canada exist at the provincial and territorial levels. The superior courts are the courts of first instance for divorce petitions, civil lawsuits involving claims greater than small claims, and criminal prosecutions for "indictable offences". They also perform a reviewing function for judgements from the local "inferior" courts and administrative decisions by provincial or territorial government entities such as labour boards, human rights tribunals and licensing authorities.
In a number of jurisdictions in the United States, the Superior Court is a state trial court of general jurisdiction with power to hear and decide any civil or criminal action hapruis which is not specially designated to be heard in some other court. California, Maine, the District of Columbia, and Georgia are all examples of such jurisdictions. Equivalent courts in other states are variously known as circuit courts (Illinois, Michigan, Oregon and others), district courts (Louisiana, Texas, Hawaii and others) or, in the case of New York, supreme courts.

Barring an epic collapse, the BYU Cougars know exactly where they're headed in the bowl season.
In contrast, Utah and Utah State might not be going anywhere. Utah may not be eligible and USU may not have a spot to land.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
Such a prospect for the Utes seemed inconceivable, coming into this season, considering they have made nine consecutive bowl appearances. Staying home would seem just as unlikely for USU at this point, considering the Aggies have a great opportunity to finish at least 9-3.
But ESPN.com's weekly bowl projections have left out Utah and USU for two Mondays in a row. That reflects a lack of confidence that the Utes (2-4) will get the required six wins, or that the Aggies (5-2) will earn the Western Athletic Conference's only guaranteed slot.
A reasonable goal for Utah would be going into the regular-season finale at Colorado with a 5-6 record and bowl eligibility at stake. That would require either sweeping its remaining home games — vs. California, Washington State and Arizona — or picking off at least one road win against Oregon State and Washington.
With one of the country's least productive offenses and a defense that ranks ninth in the Pac-12 (as judged by conference games only), winning three of the next five games looks like a big chore for Utah.
As for the Aggies, becoming bowl-eligible is not an issue. That should happen Saturday, when they host New Mexico State. But the seven-team WAC has a tie-in with only the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl in Boise, and USU would have to beat Louisiana Tech on the road to claim the title. Falling short of a WAC championship would leave USU hoping to fill an at-large vacancy that may or may not exist.
BYU (4-3) needs only two more wins to qualify for the Poinsettia Bowl, as contracted. The Cougars would meet a Mountain West team, likely Fresno State or hometown team San Diego State.

Department Head, Human Development and Family Studies, and Professor of HDFS, Psychology, and Pediatrics
314 Health & Human Development EastThe Pennsylvania State UniversityUniversity Park PA 16802
I am a developmental psychologist and my research is focused on infant and early child development. I have had a long-standing interest in socio-emotional development in early childhood (e.g., quality of attachment to parents), parenting competence and parenting at risk, how parenting is affected by parental mental health and contextual factors, and how parenting affects infant and child functioning. All of my current projects examine the joint, interactive effects of biological/medical and environmental/parenting factors on child development and parenting during the early years of life. All of them are interdisciplinary and involve graduate students, and my students draw from the project they work on in developing their own areas of expertise. It is important to me that students working with me develop into productive scholars in their own fields of expertise, and thus my students are actively involved in all phases of research, from data collection and coding and data analysis, to being co-authors and lead authors on presentations and peer-reviewed papers.
I am principal investigator of several active projects at present:
Project SIESTA (Study of Infants' Emergent Sleep Trajectories) draws from previous research demonstrating linkages between sleep disruption in childhood and developmental delays in cognitive development and behavior problems in children. Although these linkages are well-established for children in the preschool years and beyond, very few studies have examined these links in infancy, nor are the reasons for these relations well-understood. Project SIESTA is a longitudinal study of (1) linkages between infant sleep quality during the first two years and infant cognitive (e.g., information processing) and socioemotional development (e.g., quality of infant-parent attachments, infant behavior problems and behavioral competencies); (2) how parenting of infants at bedtime and night time (from video-recordings), beginning as early as 1 month of age, affects the development of infant sleep quality over time; and (3) the role of parental adaptation to infant sleep patterns in predicting infant developmental outcomes and infant stress reactivity (diurnal cortisol activity). In addition to the variety of infant socio-emotional and cognitive outcomes assessed in this study, we will be looking at parental emotional availability of parents (both mothers and fathers) at bedtime and night time with their infants, and how parental behavior at bedtime and night time predicts infant functioning during the day. Project SIESTA is funded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. Project SIESTA has several co-investigators from Penn State's departments of HDFS (Cindy Stifter, Mike Rovine) and Psychology (Pamela Cole), Hershey Medical Center's Department of Pediatrics (Ian Paul), and one investigator from the University of California, David (Thomas Anders).
2) Project Touch
Project Touch is based on prior research demonstrating the benefits of infant massage on the development of premature infants. Project Touch is particularly concerned with identifying underlying mechanisms for these effects, in particular infant stress reactivity, and we are testing whether a program of cue-directed tactile stimulation (CDTS) reduces the stress reactivity of premature infants in response to routine handling. This study is taking place in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at the Hershey Medical Center and is recruiting very premature infants and their mothers as participants. Infants are randomly assigned to an intervention (CDTS) or control group at recruitment. Infants receiving the intervention get massaged by trained NICU nurses three times a day. In addition, because of a small but growing literature indicating that parents who massage their infants also benefit from doing so, mothers in the intervention group get massage training as well and are encouraged to massage their infants whenever they come to visit them in the NICU. Indeed, this literature shows that mothers who massage their infants show reductions in depression and anxiety, and they also appear to learn about their infants' ways of communicating. Stress reactivity in infants and mothers in Project Touch is being measured from salivary cortisol. In addition, we are assessing intervention effects on mothers' perceptions of their infants' temperaments and of themselves as mothers, on infant heart rates and vagal tone, and on infant weight, head circumference, and weight. We hope to expand this project to follow infants and mothers at home after infant discharge, to look at intervention effects on parenting, and on the infant's developing immune system. In addition to myself, Project Touch brings together an interdisciplinary team that includes Kimberly Haidet (from Nursing and Pediatrics), Charles Palmer (Division of Newborn Medicine, Hershey Medical School), and Robert Bonneau (from Hershey's Dept. of Immunology).
3) Minds of Mothers Study
A third project, the Minds of Mothers Study (MOMS), is an ongoing study of emotion regulation in mothers of 5-to-8 month old infants. The MOMS makes use of electroencephalographic (EEG) and event related potential (ERP) recordings from mothers in response to pre-recorded emotional events created by their own infants, and is examining patterns of EEG and ERP responding which we believe index patterns of emotion regulation in mothers in the context of parenting. We believe such patterns will inform us about how well, or poorly, mothers emotionally regulate during parenting events, and can be used to identify parents "at risk" better than more traditional, paper-and-pencil measures or "social address" measures (e.g., social class). We are relating these patterns of EEG/ERP regulation to independent assessments of mothering in the home, and to a host of other measure of maternal mental health, co-parenting, and maternal knowledge and expectations about infant development. Thus, the MOMS employs the tools of affective neuroscience to understanding parenting at risk from a process, rather than static perspective. The MOMS brings together a variety of researchers of varying backgrounds, including Mark Feinberg (Penn State's Prevention Research Center), Pamela Cole, Sandra Azar, and William Ray (Dept. of Psychology), Joseph Stitt (Materials Research Institute), and Peter Molenaar (HDFS).
I am also affiliated with two interdisciplinary research initiatives sponsored by Penn State's Child Study Center. I am Lead Faculty of the Parenting at Risk research initiative, which brings together a working group of faculty across Penn State interested in factors that influence parenting competence and parenting at risk in relation to child development up to and including adolescence. I am also a participating member of the Early Pathways to Competence research initiative, which brings faculty together interested in any and all aspects of child development and what influences it. Graduate students are frequently invited to these bi-weekly meetings, and to the series of colloquia and presentations sponsored by these initiatives and the Child Study Center.

It's not easy being a Catholic and a lover of major league baseball, two institutions that have lifted me up as they've fallen from grace.
To remain faithful to them is to sometimes be accused of rationalizing priests accused of sexual abuse and ballplayers accused of steroid use.
Clearly, the two cannot and should not be compared equally but there are parallels in the faith and derision inspired by men of the cloth and of the diamond.
I wish I could pick up a newspaper without reading some turn of the wheel in a sex abuse scandal that has so damaged my church and its followers. On Friday, there was the story of how media organizations will be allowed to argue against the redactions of names contained in secret church files of the Los Angeles Archdiocese.
The files are central to a $660 million settlement between the diocese and church leaders and the alleged victims of sexual abuse by priests. This worldwide scandal has turned so many away from the church, and more than once I've been placed in the position of "defending" the church in uncomfortable conversations as if I were qualified to do that.
I'm not.
As a long-time baseball writer, I have been looking forward to the day when I would become a voter for the National Baseball Hall of Fame and that day has arrived.
But my first ballot, the one due by Monday, is littered with men accused of taking performance-enhancing drugs or men caught doing so.
The most famous or infamous of these characters were recently embroiled in court cases that jumped off the sports page to the front page.
Former Giant Barry Bonds, baseball's all-time home run leader, faced federal prosecution, as did Roger Clemens, statistically one of baseball's greatest pitchers ever.
Both largely beat the rap it's never been proved that either knowingly took the drugs but now it falls to me to judge their moral fitness for baseball's lifetime achievement award?
That's not my place.
I've tried not to confuse the life-affirming power within each institution and the flawed humans who draw crowds in cathedrals of worship and fields of dreams.
I've never asked for an autograph or thought that a man in a collar was superior to me. When we do that, we are asking to be betrayed and placing too much faith in the humans who move us.
The Rev. Uriel Ojeda prayed over my father the night before he died, but is now facing an April trial in Sacramento on charges of molesting an underage girl. The moment Ojeda spent with my family will remain sacred with us forever, irrespective of his legal fate.
If a jury finds Ojeda guilty then he goes to jail, and rightly so, but I can't pretend that he wasn't there for me when I needed him. The faith was real, even if the individual was human.
In a similar vein, Sammy Sosa gave me one of my biggest thrills when he hit a ball over my head in the summer of 1998 as he and Mark McGwire shattered baseball's single-season home run record.
I've never seen anything like it, as every last person in the ballpark stood and cheered madly every time Sosa came up to bat.
Now Sosa and McGwire are disgraced in the minds of many for being linked to steroids.
But what I witnessed was not a dream it really happened. The moment was real, even if the individual was human.
There are things that might tempt me to walk away from the church. But I've witnessed firsthand the courageous nuns and priests who tend to the sick and poor in Latin America sometimes at great risk. I see the good that Catholic charities and charitable Catholics do in Sacramento every day. I just wrote a column last week about how one Jesuit High School graduate donated his kidney to save another based on the words the priests spoke to him on campus:
"Live your life to be a man for others."
I could vote to ban any and all players from the Hall of Fame with any links to steroids even the ones damned by unproven whispers but what would that prove? There weren't rules to punish players for using steroids until 2005, when some of the current candidates for the Hall of Fame were already retired. There is no telling how many players used performance-enhancing drugs, no metrics to show with any degree of certainty how said drugs affected competition.
If you vote to keep "all" the cheaters out without knowing who "all" of them are, you're saying the Baseball Hall of Fame a monument to baseball history should pretend the last 25 years of history didn't happen.
Maybe some would call that rationalizing. Or maybe it's just facing up to the frailty within the pulpit and the clubhouse and accepting that history, courts of law and higher authorities than I will judge the accused within them.

A Bossier City man is facing more charges in connection with a series of vehicle burglaries, after a search turned up numerous additional items detectives say he stole.
Charles D. Blue was already charged with burglary last Thursday, after Bossier City Police say they busted him in an overnight surveillance operation at Lander's Dodge in the 2700 block of Benton Road.
Detectives say they say they saw him enter a vehicle that was parked in a secured area outside the repair shop. Detectives also seized Blue's vehicle and recovered dozens of items inside that are believed to have been taken in the burglaries at the dealership and in other recent vehicle burglaries. Those items include men's wedding bands, two Rolex watches, gift cards, GPS navigation devices, iPods, collectable gold coins, tools and flashlights.
On Monday, police say they turned up multiple handguns, knives, GPS navigation systems and wedding rings in a search of a Shreveport home where Blue occasionally stays.
Detectives have determined that some of the items, including two of the handguns, were stolen in recent vehicle burglaries in Bossier City.
Detectives ask anyone who has recently had these types of items stolen from their vehicle to contact the Bossier City Police Department at (318) 741-8665. Copyright 2013 KSLA. All rights reserved.

Productivity growth in information-sector industries
October 09, 2003
Between 1987 and 2001, productivity (as measured by output per hour) grew in six of the seven industries in the information sector for which BLS has measures.
Output per hour rose 15.7 percent per year among software publishers. Productivity growth in the telecommunications industries was also strong, with an increase of 9.9 percent per year posted by the wireless telecommunications industry and an increase of 6.2 percent per year registered by the wired telecommunications industry.
The one industry among the seven with a decline in productivity from 1987 to 2001 was cable and other subscription programming.
This information is from the BLS Productivity and Costs Program. Data are subject to revision. Additional information is available from "Productivity and Costs by Industry, 2001" (PDF) (TXT), news release USDL 03-490. This news release presents industry productivity and related series that are based, for the first time, on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS).

Cyber security risk
|Partnering for cyber resilience: Risk & responsibility in a hyperconnected world
Deloitte member firms contribute as project advisers to the World Economic Forum initiative. The initiative asks leaders to sign a set of Principles, and offers organizations tools to evaluate and improve their capabilities.
In a rapidly changing world where information has a significant value, supply chains are interconnected, and there is uncertainty when doing business on a global basis, the security and resilience of operations has become a board level issue. Governments and commercial organizations across the globe are asking the questions, "how do I manage the risks to my digital and physical assets; what threats are posed to my people; do we have the appropriate controls and contingency plans in place to protect our business or respond if something happens; can I rely on my third party business partners to maintain appropriate levels of control for me?"
A World Economic Forum initiative, Risk and Responsibility in a Hyperconnected World: Principles and Guidelines, has been developed over the course of 2011 through a multistakeholder project in which Deloitte member firm consultants served as the project advisors. The report was launched at the Forum's 2012 Annual Meeting at Davos.

A tornado did indeed hit Manahawkin, N.J., Tuesday morning, the National Weather Service confirmed.
The twister touched down at 10:05 a.m. near the intersection of Route 9 and Oak Avenue and cut a path for two miles in the Stafford Township community before lifting off near Hilliard Boulevard and Beach Avenue, the weather service said.
The weather service estimated the wind speed of the tornado at 85 mph, making it an EF-0, the weakest tornado category on the Fujita scale.
The tornado, which was between 50 and 100 yards wide, knocked down numerous trees, which damaged a garage and the roofs of several church buildings, officials said.
The tornado in Ocean County was spawned in a line of powerful storms with damaging winds that raked southern and central New Jersey. Other strong storms were reported in Gloucester and Camden counties.
The weather service issued then canceled a tornado warning in Ocean County shortly before the storm hit Stafford.
Storms left hundreds without power after dumping 2 inches or more of rain.
Some voting booths in Burlington County had to be moved when water seeped into polling places.
Flooding and lightning is reported throughout the Garden State.

Gardasil: Do the Risks Outweigh the Benefits?
Over 24 million doses have been distributed in the U.S. But how safe is it? Momlogic investigates.
We've all seen the "One Less" commercials promoting Gardasil, the cervical cancer vaccine that helps protect against 4 types of human papillomavirus (HPV). This three-dose vaccine, which was introduced in 2006, is for girls age 9 to 26. Over 24 million doses have been distributed in the U.S.
The momlogic office has been flooded with letters and e-mails from mothers grappling over whether to vaccinate their tweens and teens or not. Some wonder if their kids even need it, since they're not sexually active. ("Will giving my daughter these shots be like giving her a license to have sex?") Others are concerned about the side effects. As of May 1, 2009, more than 24 million doses of Gardasil have been distributed in the United States. There have been 13,758 Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) reports following vaccination. Ninety-three percent were reports of events considered to be non-serious, like fainting, headache, or fever. But seven percent were considered to be serious -- such as hospitalization, or even death. Yes, death. Thirty-nine women have died after getting the Gardasil vaccine, according to the CDC. To date, none of these deaths has been officially linked directly to the vaccine.
Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS), a rare disorder that causes muscle weakness, has been reported to have occurred after vaccination with Gardasil. Barbara Mellers' 15-year-old daughter, Jenny, passed away in March 2009 from what doctors suspect was autoimmune in causation. She started developing muscle weakness shortly after getting her third Gardasil shot in March 2007. "In May 2007, Jenny came home from school one day having tripped over a hurdle in P.E. class. It was 1 and a half feet high. All the other kids cleared it easily," Barbara recalls. By December, Jenny had to use a walker at school, and her muscle weakness was getting progressively worse. No one knew what was wrong with her, and she was sent to countless specialists. By summer 2008, Jenny was a quadriplegic who could breathe only with machine support. "We had wonderful friends helping us look for other children who were similar to Jenny," Barbara says. "We set up a website. We reached out to doctors all over the world to find treatments, experimental drugs, and medications. We tried so many things. Sometimes we thought she was getting better. Maybe the disease was slowing down or even reversing. Then she'd get a little worse, and we knew we were wrong." Despite everyone's Herculean efforts, Jenny died in pediatric ICU on March 15th, 2009. To read more of Jenny's story, click here.
Was Gardasil to blame for Jenny's death? That has yet to be determined. Her family hesitates to declare that Gardasil was the cause of her death, but some prominent medical scientists at leading universities see the connection as possible and even plausible. Jenny's parents, both college professors, would like to persuade the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) to investigate how many Jennys are out there.
Is Gardasil safe for YOUR daughter? We asked two well-respected OB/GYNs, Dr. Hilda Hutcherson and Dr. Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz, to weigh in on this serious issue.
ML: Is Gardasil a must for all teen girls, even if they are not sexually active?
Dr. Hilda: Many people tie this vaccine to sexual activity, but we need to separate it from sexual activity and look at it as cancer prevention. When you look at it as cancer prevention, it's a lot easier to embrace it. I tell moms that you are giving something to your daughter that could potentially save her life in the future.
Dr. Suzanne: I try to explain to moms, in plain English, what HPV is and why it poses problems -- i.e., what the virus is, what the subtypes are, and which are the "bad players." I tell them that Gardasil may reduce the risk of transmission of four specific subtypes of the virus that can cause genital warts and that can cause dysplasia, or potentially pre-cancerous changes of the cervix that may lead to cervical cancer if left untreated in some, not all, women.
Moms should ask themselves: Are they getting their daughters vaccinated with a clear understanding of what the vaccination can and cannot do, or are they doing it out of panic, fear, or guilt?
With all due respect, no one ever knows for sure what another is really up to, and even the best mother-daughter relationships might harbor some secrets. Furthermore, assuming that the non-sexual teen will reliably remain in that state is just an accident waiting to happen. I say give your daughters (and sons!) all the best info and resources, and guide them to trusted grown-ups (counselors, doctors, etc.) ahead of time, if at all possible, so that they do have someone who is not you to talk to just in case. My teen patients who are given these opportunities may feel embarrassed initially (the "mooo-om" syndrome), but also appreciate the respect that their parents are giving them to make decisions safely and wisely.
ML: Many mothers who write to us with hesitancy about the vaccine fear they are hurting their daughters by NOT allowing her the vaccine. Are they?
Dr. Hilda: I don't believe in making mothers feel guilty. I just try to provide the information. I say, "These are the facts we have right now. You use the information given to you and make the best decision based upon this." You as a mom have to make the right decision for your child.
Dr. Suzanne: It is true that rates of STDs among teens are on the rise. According to a 2006 Kaiser Family Foundation report, 25% of 15- to 19-year-olds and nearly 50% of American teens have had chlamydia, trichomoniasis, or HPV, with HPV being most common. 35% of 13- to 19-year-olds are HPV-positive. But it is also true that 80-90% of those infected, even with the highest-risk HPV strains, will clear the infection on their own within two years. In the end, it is a crap shoot!
ML: What about uninsured girls whose parents can't afford the pricey protection?
Dr. Hilda: The people who need it the most aren't getting it. It's an access issue. They don't have access to something that could be life-saving, because they can't afford it. I feel it's something we should provide for women who can't afford it. Children age 18 and younger may be eligible to get vaccines, including the HPV vaccine, for free through the Vaccines for Children program.
Dr. Suzanne: I believe that leveling the field was one of the aims of the bills that some states proposed to require vaccinations for school entry, similar to other more common vaccinations such as measles, hepatitis B, etc. It's also important to note here that 85% of diagnoses and deaths due to cervical cancer occur in developing nations. Clearly, poverty and lack of health care play a big role in this disease and need attention. We should be getting this vaccination to the poor women of the world regardless of their country or residence.
ML: It's a brand-new drug -- why are we lining up our daughters to get these injections without more thought?
Dr. Hilda: The FDA doesn't let anything get through unless it was adequately tested, and I think this vaccine was properly tested. I feel comfortable recommending this vaccine to my family members. There's nothing on this planet that doesn't have risks, but you have to weigh the benefits and the risks.
When you measure the few women who possibly had a bad outcome (that we can't yet directly link to the vaccine) and the thousands of women whose lives can be saved, I come out on the side of the benefits outweighing the risks.
Dr. Suzanne: Why are we lining up our daughters to get these injections? Because as moms, we want to do the right thing, and we got the message loud and clear that this was the right thing.
ML: How do we know the long-term side effects when the drug was so quickly approved and administered in waves?
Dr. Hilda: There are reported short-term side effects and reactions like fainting, but I haven't seen that in my office. In terms of the long-term side effects, the FDA has approved this and deemed it safe. I don't think it was "quickly" approved because they don't "quickly" approve anything! Gardasil was thoroughly tested before it came on the market. And if it protects you from cervical cancer and can potentially save your life, that beneficial effect cannot be disputed and in my opinion, outweighs the risks.
Dr. Suzanne: The FDA approval process involved more than 4,000 vaccinations over 4 years, and this government body felt that this was adequate to bring the product to market. Understanding that there had been no way, prior to this point in time, to prevent the disease -- and the public health and personal impacts of not only cervical cancer, but frequent pap smears, colposcopies, cervical biopsies, the physical and psychological pain, shame, and blame -- is really critical in adding context to the decision to develop the vaccination and bring it to market rapidly. There has been long-term frustration in this area for patients, researchers, and practitioners.
A handful of my patients developed side effects. One developed mysterious neurological symptoms that we cannot diagnose. There is no way to know if this is a coincidence or not, but more than one study, including a 2007 study looking at 270,000 doses administered in Australia, has revealed a five- to ten-fold increase in "reactions" to this vaccination over other common vaccinations. The absolute numbers are quite low -- 7 incidents in 270,000 -- but statistically significant.
ML: What about the reported deaths?
Dr. Hilda: These cannot be directly tied to this vaccine. Millions have received the vaccine, and 39 young people tragically died at some point after receiving the vaccine. Those deaths have not been tied directly to the vaccine at this point. I feel for the families, and no young person should have to die, but this vaccine will save thousands of lives per year.
Dr. Suzanne: It has been very hard to link the reported incidents, reactions, and deaths to the vaccination, partly because there is no obvious pattern and the absolute numbers are low. But for most mothers, they are obviously a cause for concern.
ML: Would you allow your daughter to get the Gardasil vaccine?
Dr. Hilda: Yes.
Dr. Suzanne. She is only 8. The jury is out.
How do you determine whether the benefits outweigh the risks for your daughter? Both doctors agree that this isn't a decision that should be taken lightly. Download momlogic's Should Your Daughter Get the Gardasil Vaccine? Questions Every Mother Should Ask printable guide for more guidance.
Is the Gardasil vaccine safe for your daughter? Momlogic's OB/GYN Dr. Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz went on NBC's "Today" show this morning to shed more light on the subject.
Would you allow (or have you allowed) your daughter to get the Gardasil vaccine? Why or why not?
|Dr. Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz completed her undergraduate education at Wesleyan University and post-baccalaureate pre-med studies at Mills College. She earned her medical degree from the USC School of Medicine and has been in private practice for 9 years. She is the co-founder of Cedar Sinai Medical Center's Green Committee and lives in Los Angeles with her husband and two children.
|Dr. Hilda Hutcherson is a clinical professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Columbia University. She has written three books, including "Pleasure: A Woman's Guide to Getting the Sex You Want, Need and Deserve." She lives in Pelham, New York with her husband and four children.
I'm not rushing just yet to get my 9 year-old vaccinated. I'll wait until the verdict is officially out on these which won't be in a few more years. I'd like to see the 5 and 10 year history of this vaccine. If my daughter gets it by 19 than that's fine too. I do hope this works. I don't want her to ever get cervical cancer, but I also do want her to be safe. Waiting right now is the logical choice for me.
I'm 24 and my doctor recommended that I get the Gardasil vaccine. I'd heard about it and just trusted her word and the info she gave me. After 1 shot I was sick for 3 weeks. Nonstop headaches, nausea, delayed period (didn't get it for 2 months).
I decided not to get the 2nd and 3rd injections. I have a daughter who isn't yet old enough for this, but once she is I will NOT be giving it to her.
The HPV Vaccine has to be one of the murkiest medical topics in recent history. For parents who dutifully vaccinated their children, a cancer-preventing vaccine is a dream come true. But what is it about HPV and/or Cervical Cancer that we need a vaccine and, in some states, make it mandatory? What increases in HPV related illness and cervical cancer have the medical community been seeing to so strongly support vaccination? To me, these questions are unanswered and from where I sit, the cart is before the horse. I'd rather a doctor discuss healthy lifestyle habits (diet, exercise, not smoking, annual physicals) and the HPV Pap Test, than to recommend a vaccine to girls as young as 9.
Women are freaking out about this just like they did with Norplant.
I'm just not sure yet. My daughters are 11 and 9 so I have time to wait and see what other reports come through before deciding.
I married young with no sexual experience besides my husband, same with him. He died in 2003.
My "now" husband of almost 2 years agreed to visit his doctor for STD testing before we were intimate. I had no reason to but did also.
The large number of potential reactions really worried me, so I chose not to get the vaccine when I was offered it - at the same time I got the vaccine for meningitis, which was required to live in a dorm. I'm definitely pro-vaccine, but I'd choose to wait to learn more about this one if I was thinking about getting it. Girls have suffered paralysis, coma, severe swelling, etc - it's pretty scary.
I know I won't ever bother getting Gardasil, as I've only ever been with one person, who was also a virgin when we got together. Since we're planning to get married … I think I'll be okay on HPV. =]
My 13 year daughter missed almost the entire school year last year because of the Gardasil vaccine. Because of Gardasil, she was one less child, one less student, and possibly could have been one less daughter. She was vaccine injured and is being treated by Wake Forest Medical Center and Duke University Children's hospital. She was given this vaccine by her pediatrician who highly recommended it. Within 2 weeks after taking the last dose, she was taken down almost completely. She went from being well with no previous illnesses to being sick 97% of the time. She was in this state for around 5 months. The worst part is that doctors do not understand vaccine injuries and when they occur and the injured are pretty much on their own to research and treat the symptoms. The vaccine injury has caused my child to struggle for a year and least important, has also cost thousands of dollars in medical expenses. In my opinion, the benefits do not outweigh the risks and I do not want my daughter to be one less because of this vaccine. Parent should investigate before you vaccinate because there are a lot of sick girls out there who would agree, it is not worth it. The CDC and FDA need to investigate the side effects of vaccines, because basically, the public is own their own in this fight. Our government is not doing their job in this area.
"The people who need it the most aren't getting it. It's an access issue. "tsh tsh Dr. Hilda, do you have preconceived notions about the poor people being more promiscuous than the rich?
Facts indicate that more white people, rich or poor, rank highest in the grouping of the more than 24 million juveniles with HPVs in this country's population.
My rich friends growing up were more prone to pregnancy in 6th grade than the lower income friends.
Socioeconomics has nothing to do with priorities or values or supervision.
I WILL tell you that jobs and socializing do keep parents from supervising their children/juveniles.
I am also surprised to hear that you ALL still think that:
1. HPVs cause cancer, cervical or otherwise
2. that there aren't other solutions for cervical cancer less hazardous, like natural progesterone creams and essential oils
3. that everyone has to have pre-marital sex, thus STDs
4. and that gardasil isn't causing effects in those who think they don't have phenotypical signs of a reaction.
With no lab tests on animals to significantly TEST the magnitude of how the vaccine alters the organs, blood or other systems in the body there is simply NO WAY to know what is actually happening in the body after the vaccine is given.
In vitro is a poor substitute for a living body with diverse organs (heart) and other systems that function in unison or not at all.
Animals need to be tested so scientists can observe the organs and blood and what happens to them as far as catalyst toxins are concerned. The girls are getting poisoned.
It is simply an experiment and VAERs is simply the collection of results.
Results that should have been collected from lab animals before subjecting it to humans.
1 death is too many, 32 is outrageous and 76 is over the top.
How can these VAERs results even be monitored correctly, from being tampered with?
Moms have complained that the results are incorrect and there is no way to get the site to correct the logged posts.
Because no lab tests were conducted, no medical community can correctly and assuredly recognize the failed cases or even treat them; something that they should be doing for free as well as compensate the families of the grieving.
The victims are off alone wondering how to save their girls from resulting in death. Not a pretty picture!
My daughter had the shots at 18 (she's now 20) and had no side effects at all.
I would NEVER give my children this shot. This shot only protects you from a FEW kinds of cancers. That is only a few, and in my opinion it's completely pointless. Right now cancer is still a medical mystery. Out of all the money that is raised each year to help us find this cure, nothing has yet to show up. Nor do I think it ever will. This shot will not cure you from cervical cancer! My grandmother died two years ago from breast cancer and i watched her go through all the chemo, radiation, and experimental treatments. It is all one big game. She was alive when this shot came out, and we talked about the potential risks and benefits of it. The risks far out way the benefits, and never in a million years would she allow me to put this harmful shot in my body. My question is, why are we coming out with this shot now? Years ago we were perfectly fine without it.
I think Dr. Suzanne did an admirable job on the Today show. I was extreamly disappointed that Dr. Nancy tried to shut down the discussion about the potential problems in the long term with this vaccine. The fact is that there are no long term studies, three years of data isnt enough to produce what the FDA considers long term- nor for that matter what we as patients should consider long term. While the FDA reports there has been no link between the deaths and the vaccine, are you willing to take the risk with the life of your daugter for the current benefit? I have a 7 year old daughter and currently I am unwilling to take that risk. I plan to revisit the question time and time again, as we have seen many many times in the past, hind sight is 20/20 (for example HRT, Phen/Fen, Thalidamide- it could go on and on).
I was always very disappointed in the Today Show segment. Shame on NBC for allowing Dr. Nancy to hijack the discussion and discredit Dr. Suzanne's comments. Furthermore, to broadcast Gardasil as a Cancer Vaccine was bad journalism. It is a vaccine that protects against some HPV strains that may cause cancer. Not even Gardasil's own product information is as definitive about the cancer aspect of the vaccine as Dr. Nancy was today.
I posted a question to the show that wasn't chosen. Here it is:
Dr. Nancy, do you think HPV and/or Cervical Cancer is so prevalent and such a risk to the public health that we need to vaccinate for it?
What is it about HPV and Cervical Cancer that we need a vaccine? That question has yet to be answered. Dr. Suzanne made an unsuccessful attempt today to discuss how serious HPV/cervical cancer are in third world countries, but Dr. Nancy shut her down.
Gardasil is not like any other vaccine a person receives in their life. Please, please, please seriously consider HPV, cervical cancer and the vaccine itself before agreeing to receive it. There is much more to this fast-tracked vaccine than was discussed on the Today Show.
I appreciated your thoughtful comments on the Today show. I think there are plenty of questions and that this vaccine is still relatively new. I thought your example re: HRT and long term effects was relevant in terms of how long it may take to discover potential unintended effects of any treatment.
My daughter is almost 19. We have discussed this, researched all we can and she has decided she will not be getting this vaccine at this time.
I have 2 granddaughters ages 13 and 12 who have received 2 of the 4 Gardasil vaccinations and will not be getting the other 2. The 12 year old (11 at the time) suffered temporary paralysis the same day of the injection, both times. The first time, the hand of the arm injected was paralyzed for several days. The second time, one side of her face was paralyzed for several days. This caused her face to droop on that side and made eating very difficult. It was a very scary thing for an 11 year old. When her mother took her to the doctor both times, the doctor was very uncooperative about reporting the reactions to anyone for further study. We have our suspicions as to why he didn't report the reactions, but no proof. He actually had the audacity to expect their mother to bring them back for the 3d shot. She informed him in no uncertain terms that they WOULD NOT be getting anymore of the vaccine and that she was not pleased with his lack of concern. Unfortunately, they are on a state run medical program for children's health care and not able to just go to any doctor they choose. We are very angry about this doctor's complacency and truly believe that many other doctors, for whatever reasons, are not reporting serious adverse reactions that need to be studied so the true risks of the vaccine are made known. Mothers need to be able to make an educated decision about having their daughters vaccinated or not.
Two of my nieces (perfectly healthy and active girls) completed the series of Gardasil vaccinations. One niece developed a non-malignant breast tumor. While the other niece developed a form of hypothyroidism called Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, which caused (among other things) weight loss, lack of hunger and lack of energy. She will have to be on medicine for the rest of her life. Her doctor said she needed to get the shots because, "everyone else was getting them." I had read that one State was going to make this mandatory for all girls within the state to get vaccinated….OMG… I don't believe that we have seen all the fallout from this drug. There needs to be more education (aside from the false advertising) so mothers and girls can make informed decisions.
Patricia, if I'm not mistaken, isn't there a way that your daughter can report the incidences on her own? My son had a bad reaction to miralax and there was a way that we were able to make a report without the doctor. We just specified that we were the parent, not the physician, but we still answered as many questions as we could and described the problem, and then it shows up in the database as a parent-reported problem. I would encourage you to look into this further and see if there isn't a way to get it reported, somehow.
Donât miss the book âThe HPV Vaccine Controversy: Sex, Cancer, God and Politicsâ authored by Shobha S. Krishnan, M.D, Barnard college, Columbia University. It is written without the influence of any pharmaceutical companies or special interest groups. The book educates both professionals and the public about HPV infections, the diseases they cause and the role/ controversies surrounding the new vaccines. The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA, June 17th 2009) calls the book superb and a terrific contribution to the field. It is available at amazon.com, Barnes and Noble .com and through international distributors. Link to the book: http://www.greenwood.com/catalog/C35011.aspx
First of all I think the person recieving the vaccine should have the final say,NOT THE MOM,NOT MERCK,NOT the OBGYN,NOT THE GOVERNMENT!Two I find it odd that this drug is being pushed so hard,playing of peoples' fear of a gender specific cancer.With YAZ! having to redo it's advertising PR ("YAZ! is not for PMS,the FDA wants us to clear up a few things, it's for PMDD and not for PMS and ACNE",SORRY!),yes I do believe these drug giants (i.e. Beyer[YAZ!] and Merck {Gardi-what-ever-it's-called]) are playing on fear,going as far as to suggest to the US and the Mexican government that it's of upmost prudnence;as though all girls will get cervical cancer right of the bat, without the shot.It's all MONEY ladies, and if I were a feminist I'd be very angry…things are not right,our girls are now money making drug pawns.
Merck continues to deny that Gardasil is causing side effects and death. Merck also lied about the safety of Vioxx. Do you want to trust your daughter with a drug made by a liar?
i was wondering what was the most common side effects of this drug?? i have had health issues scince the shot and now i dont have the same dr that gave me the shot,my current dr did blood wrk and everything "looked"fine so where do i go from there??

NFL legend Dan Marino apologized this week for having an extramarital affair and fathering a child with a 35-year-old production assistant from CBS.
The New York Post reported the story Thursday, revealing Marino had an affair with Donna Savattere in 2005. At the time, Marino had been married for 20 years and had six other children, two of which were adopted. He is still married and celebrated his 28th anniversary on Wednesday.
The Post also reported Marino has paid Savattere millions of dollars to support the child and keep the affair quiet.
Marino told the newspaper in a written statement:
"This is a personal and private matter. I take full responsibility both personally and financially for my actions now as I did then. We mutually agreed to keep our arrangement private to protect all parties involved."
Marino is slated to be a part of CBS's coverage of the Super Bowl on Sunday. The network had no other comment other than to say "Dan has said all there is to say on this matter."
