Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Infection (cont.)
HIV infection progresses in stages. These stages are based on your symptoms and the amount of the virus in your blood. Most people go through the following stages after being infected with HIV:
Initial stage (acute retroviral syndrome)
Acute retroviral syndrome is an illness with symptoms like mononucleosis. It often develops within a few days of infection, but it may occur several weeks after the person is infected. Symptoms may include:
These first symptoms can range from mild to severe and usually disappear on their own after 2 to 3 weeks. But many people do not have symptoms or they have mild symptoms that they do not notice at this stage.
Chronic stage
It may take years for HIV symptoms to develop. But even though no symptoms are present, the virus is multiplying (or making copies of itself) in the body during this time. HIV multiplies so quickly that the immune system cannot destroy the virus. After years of fighting HIV, the immune system starts to weaken.
A doctor may suspect HIV if symptoms persist or if a cause of the symptoms (such as the flu) cannot be identified. HIV may also be suspected when several of the following symptoms are present:
Also, HIV may be suspected when a woman has at least one of the following:
Children with HIV often have different symptoms (for example, delayed growth or an enlarged spleen) than teens or adults.
Late stage
AIDS occurs during the last stage of infection with HIV. If HIV goes untreated, AIDS develops in most people within 10 to 12 years after the initial infection. With treatment for HIV, the progression to AIDS may be delayed or prevented.
After your immune system starts to weaken, you are more likely to develop certain infections or illnesses, called opportunistic infections. Examples include some types of pneumonia or cancer that are more common when you have a weakened immune system.
A small number of people who are infected with HIV are rapid progressors. They develop AIDS within a few years if they do not receive treatment. It is not known why the infection progresses faster in these people.

Public comment on hearing examiner sought
Blaine residents concerned about a new proposal to delegate certain land-use decisions to the city hearing examiner can submit their written comments to the Blaine planning department by 4:30 p.m. Friday, August 17.
In their regular meeting Monday, Blaine City Council voted unanimously to postpone the original deadline after a flood of emails and written testimony from Blaine residents concerned about the revision.
The amendment proposed by the city last June would streamline the public planning process by eliminating the need for a project's final approval by city council and expand the role of the city's hearing examiner to include the review of most residential development applications of less than 25 lots and most commercial development of less than 50,000-square feet.
would also eliminate the city council from the appeals
process and require appellants to appeal a final decision
directly to superior court.
Under the Blaine municipal code, the planning commission is charged to make recommendations for project proposals to the council following a public review process.
current role of the hearing examiner is limited to hearing
appeals of administrative decisions made by city development
"Seven heads are better than one," said Ron Synder, who lives on Sweet Road, just outside of Blaine during an August 9 planning commission meeting. "Especially when those seven individuals are volunteers and have a vested interest in the community. If you need the expertise, hire on at an hourly rate or have the commission form an advisory committee to look at it and report back to the commission."
Blaine planning commissioner Betty Nunamaker agreed.
"By having a planning commission made up of several different people, offering a variety of viewpoints, it will ensure a more balanced and equitable process in making important decisions regarding the direction of our city," she wrote in a letter to the city. "Having only one single, paid, hearing examiner do the work of the city manager, city planner and economic developer has serious implications with respect to the future development of Blaine and those who live here."
Galvin, meanwhile, said the amendment will save time by allowing the planning commission to focus on more long-range planning such as hearings and meetings necessary to make recommendations to the city council on land use code and comprehensive plan amendments.
He added that the hearing examiner's expertise in land-use law could also prevent future lawsuits against the city.
"We've been bogged down for the past couple of years and we've been understaffed, in addition," he said. "By freeing up the planning commission to concentrate on legislative aspects of planning, they can play a very important role in setting policy that guides the way for development over the next 20 years."
Whatcom County Council member Sam Crawford, said he thought the proposed amendment could be a benefit to the volunteer planning commission as it would free up much of their time to work more on long-range planning.
Crawford, however, expressed some concern over the proposed appeals process in which appellants would be sent directly to the superior court as opposed to the city council, calling the process "extreme, not to mention expensive."
"The finality of a hearing examiner decision, with no recourse directly to the legislators in an appeal process, seems strange," he said in an email to Blaine resident Jo Slivinski obtained by The Northern Light. "I would think the city council members would certainly want to hear appeals, if for no other reason to ensure their legislative intent is being carried out by the hearing examiner."
Written public testimony may be submitted to Tom Black at firstname.lastname@example.com Fax: 543-9978 or drop by the community development department at city hall.
The Blaine Planning Commission has also scheduled an additional work session on the proposed changes for 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, August 29 to review the public record and formulate a recommendation to the city council.

Emily and Meeko's Sunny First Apartment
House Tour
Name: Emily Baker & Meeko Mendez
Location: North Beach, San Francisco
Size: 850 square feet
Years lived in: almost 1 year
Emily and Meeko, just married last October, moved into their first apartment together in North Beach about a year ago. As exciting as that was, combining lives, stuff and styles into a small apartment proved to be challenging as both were moving from much larger spaces they shared with roommates. Emily and Meeko also both work from home so the space had to not only reflect their combined likes, but also be functional and organized.
Granted, there are no complaints since their North Beach apartment, walking distance from Washington Square, is a real charmer. The bright white walls, period details and abundance of light are the perfect backdrop for Emily's favorite color — yellow. Still, Emily's style tends toward the more feminine vintage-y side while Meeko prefers stark modernism. They've managed to create a space that feels entirely like their home and will continue to evolve with them.
Still, Emily was able to have free reign over her workspace. When she's not working at her day job, she runs Frenchie & Flea, a one-stop resource for creative paper goods, photo styling and special events design, and its companion etsy shop. She desperately needed a work space that was inspiring and organized and she created just that. Her storage area uses white shelving and boxes so that her inspiration board can shine through.
AT Survey:
Inspiration: I read a lot of blogs and constantly find inspiration for our home on them. I have collected inspiring images over the years and love finding creative ways to style our apartment. I have been known to reorganize and re-style wherever I've lived OFTEN...I get antsy and definitely don't think your home should be stagnant. I love to change things around, move pictures from wall to wall, re-organize my book shelves, and...well...I'm obsessed with decorative pillows. I am pretty sure that's the one thing Meeko hates most about my home-style. When I first moved in, there were decorative pillows overflowing the sofas, chairs, and bed. I guess you can say I've learned how to edit and scale back from him.
Favorite Element: I LOVE our kitchen. It's my favorite place to be and we love to cook dinner together in there. My FAVORITE wedding gift was my yellow KitchenAid mixer, and it is a focal point in our space. Yellow, white and grey are my favorite colors, and luckily, our kitchen was an amazing bright white palette to build on. We get a ton of light from the huge windows in our kitchen, and its just the most inviting room in our house (in my opinion).
Biggest Challenge: Nesting as newlyweds can be tough. Downsizing from bigger places with roommates, to a super small space is hard enough, and the fact that we're both bringing different styles, habits, and likes/dislikes to the table makes finding a cohesive "look" a process. I love color and pattern, vintage finds, and am definitely on the more feminine side in terms of design aesthetic, and Meeko is a lover of all things modern, simple, clean and stark. If he had is way, we would live in a glass box with 2 pieces of furniture. It took us an entire year to really define our style as a couple, as well as find functional ways to cohabitate in a tiny apartment with zero storage.
What Friends Say: Our friends seem to love our place. Although its not the best layout for entertaining or hosting dinner parties, we do have a lot of guests come to stay with us. Our location is prime...in the heart of North Beach with a view of Washington Square Park...you can't beat it. We love having a place where people enjoy visiting!
Biggest Embarrassment: Until recently, it was the kitchen nook. That space served as our storage area, junk catchall, recycling and donation collection center, AND my craft area. It was BAD, especially because it was open to the kitchen and everyone could see it. We finally motivated to overhaul the nook and make it a functional and organized work/craft area for me that doubles as the eat in nook it's supposed to be.
Proudest DIY: Probably my craft area overhaul. I needed a workspace for Frenchie & Flea that was functional, inspiring and organized. With small space and no storage, I had to find shelving that doubled as a work table, storage solutions that were pleasing to the eye (since this IS our kitchen, after all), and I wanted everything to reflect my style and brand. All of the storage boxes are from The Container Store and the shelf is from IKEA. The vintage card table and folding chairs (from Alameda Antiques & Collectibles) easily folds up if I need extra work space, but also serves as my sewing table and our dining table. It was all done for under $350.
Biggest Indulgence: We haven't really indulged in anything crazy expensive, but I guess our couch and chair are the biggest purchase we've made. They were from Macy's and we bought them during the semi-annual furniture sale. It was difficult to find a sofa that would fit in such a small living space...but we managed and we love the modern-retro style of the couches. Plus, they have enough space underneath them for extra storage! BONUS!
Best advice: Living in a small space requires a lot of organization. It took me a really long time to realize that the time and effort I put into keeping our home organized would help to create an environment that was efficient, highly functional and relaxing. You have to get creative with your furniture and storage solutions, and also buy pieces that are proportional in scale to the size of your home. Our living room would look stuffed and crowded if we had an over-sized sofa and a giant coffee table, and our bathroom, well its miniature, so organizing all of my products and tools was essential in that space as well. On another note, merging styles and tastes as newlyweds can be a struggle but it can also be really fun. We had 2 huge yard sales and donated a ton of stuff when we moved in together to create new space to fill as a couple. Furniture we both didn't love, we sold on Craigslist and saved the money to put towards a new piece of furniture we would pick out together. It's all about compromise...I know Meeko hates florals, so I used a shower curtain that was more graphic than girly, and replaced my Anthropologie bedding with more neutral and modern prints and colors from West Elm. It's been a work in progress, but we're finally at a point where our apartment reflects both of us and is a place we love to spend time in.
Dream source: West Elm, Anthropologie and flea markets are my favorite sources for furniture and decor. I also love buying art and prints on Etsy. Supporting emerging or undiscovered artists is important to me, as a designer, and it's generally affordable. Someday I hope we can purchase some fantastic original artwork, but until then, I love all of our art prints we've collected from places like Renegade Craft Fair and Etsy!

where can I buy those Apology cards?
This home is beautiful and inspiring.
Too cute...looks like it was very lovingly put togeter. Love the pops of yellow and that apology on the bulletin board was priceless.
I really like the airy feel of your home, color palette, and the well-edited furnishings. I am wondering if you rent or own. I have not encountered any rentals with such beautiful kitchen cabinetry, counters, and back splash. What is used below the chair rail in the hallway that looks like pressed tin? Well done small space!
everything blends so well together, even the yellow, which I usually find difficult to work with! great job :)
Love the apology cards, too. Are they on your Etsy site?
This is such a cute place and very young home. Yes nice use of yellow and very personalized. Looks like a graphic artist home from all the prints, letters and fabric prints.
Wonderful bright, cheery space. Is that a wicker trunk serving as a coffee table in the living room?
where do we get the apology cards??
The apology cards are from Paper Source. I've updated the resources to reflect that.
Thanks for all of the comments!
LOL! From the very first picture I could tell it was a North Beach apartment (the hood where I was born and raised). You've really done an amazing job by making such a fresh and modern look look so complementary in an older flat. I love it!
Hey, I have that shower curtain, and the Diesel perfume. You have good tastes ;) We also had one of the cardboard deer heads, but the poor antlers got bent in a little accident.
Oh, we got the matching trash can, too! I love your place :)
PS jacasa that is called anaglypta and you can actually buy it in rolls like wall paper from a lot of home improvement stores. We recently restored our bathrooms with it, and the before/afters are amazing :-) (a previous tenant had stripped the original in the 70s, boo).
Love that deer head - where is it from? Very cute place!
Umm just mone more comment and I'll stop stalking this house tour ;-) That print of the couple under red umbrellas looking at the Golden Gate Bridge is by my friend Megan!! It's so crazy to see them all over the place now, but awesome :-)
I love the shot with the mugs. I bought us his and hers "C" mugs from Anthro and I smile every time I open the cabinet and see them hanging there!
I also have the same shower curtain (and went with gray towels too)! Apparently it's popular. I want that matching green trashcan though, it would be perfect. Does Target still sell it?
I love the pops of color :) Sweet place.
This is a great apartment. It's nice to see the "typical" SF apartment made fresh and modern - but not too much - and it has a lot of personality. I only wish my apt. could be so clean and uncluttered. Although... we didn't see your office. :)
It looks very homely. I love your use of lime green in the bathroom and the picture above your bed. Does your sister sell her work?
I always wonder how people avoid alarm clocks on side tables? Where are you hiding them! =)
I love this home!
this home is insanely adorable!!! i love the area they live in...we just moved to austin from san francisco and OH WOW, we would've loved to have purchased something in that city...oh well, we'll just have to go back and visit!
all the touches of yellow and all adorable things that strengthen a marriage...VERY nice to see, indeed! i'm SO loving the the framed verse by the bed....SO TRUE! :)
I love this place. What a great home!
I am head over heads for the measuring spoons on the fridge; where can I find them?
Lovely home all-around! :)
Really cute space! I love the bedroom especially. I really like how you've mixed clean-lined, modern furniture with more decorative touches. It really softens up the stark modern pieces and makes this a space that looks really livable as well as stylish. I also like how comfortable and casual everything seems. I am a fan of the use of white paint, and it helps that the apartment itself has such great bones. Beautiful job!
@dovescircledthesky, they're from anthropologie. i love them , too!
Lovely home, thanks for sharing.
Also thanks for the floor plan and labeling the pics, thats so helpful.
Your home is beautiful! Is that the Corona couch? I'm thinking of it for my home and would love to know any feedback you have regarding it.
Where did you find the print "I HAVE ALWAYS KNOWN IT WAS YOU."
I love it!!!
Love your place, I know you said you bought the couches at macys but can you share the collection name :-) thanks!!!
such a happy place... I specially love the touch of yellow color in every room.
I really like your cheerful home. Thanks for sharing.
Fresh, bright and cheerful! Love it! I don't live very far from the Baker Hotel, and love the door knob hanger! *:O)
I love your sister's painting. Is there a web site?
I am in LOVE with this!
it's simple, and has a not-so-obvious elegance yet it's unique.
Absolutely beautiful. Great eye for color and detail.
This is so, so, so good. I am inspired!
I LOVE this apartment! You have done such a fantastic job with the space! Your use of punch colors on a white background has really helped the original unique qualities of the apartment stand out. I must say my favorite thing about your apartment is the use of the gold colors with the white in the bedroom. I have white bedroom furniture and have been searchign for the right color scheme. This really made the space feel light and clean. I may have to steal that. And I was so excited when I saw that you use the wicker chest as your coffee table too! I keep all of my Elle Decors inside mine! ;-)
LOVE this! probably one of my favorite tours -- it's beautiful and well thought out, but simultaneously practical and lived-in. the pops of yellow are great, as well as the attention to detail.
fiance and i have been living together almost a year now, and our house is nowhere near that complete! :)
love love love this home tour!! what an inspirational use of color! Thanks for sharing!! Wanted to know if you can tell me where you picked up those yellow coffee mugs and especially the mug holder!! Looks like Anthro - but I don't remember seeing it there.... did the mugs come with the holder?? I have that Krups machine (love it! but it takes up quite a bit of counterspace), and I've been looking for a way to properly display some mug options there... thanks!!
beautiful home!
One of my favorite tours. Really great use of color and some smart design here. If I lived on the west coast, I'd probably do something kind of like this.
totally love this house. not overdone. just perfect. love the colors.
Generally I don't like a lot of white. But this home is just beautiful. The color really stands out...I LOVE the pops of warm golden yellow. Beautiful through and through.
Cute place. #26 and #31 appear to be the same photo?
I like your style, but I second the request for "more house, less vignettes"
Could you tell me where you got the stacking coffee mugs? They are great space savers!
Oooh! Very nice! I, too, would like to know where those stacking cups came from:-)
You can find the apology cards at Modcloth.com
Love love love this apartment! I keep looking at the photos! My favorite color is yellow too and it's so nice to see different ways to use it in your home!
Can you tell us where the dishtowels and various trays are all from??
beautiful home. Great job even on those oddly shaped rooms.
So nice!! I three would like to know where the stacking mugs came from, as well as the dressers/nightstand in the bedroom please!!!
Perfect home! Beautiful. Why must Meeko remain androgynous here? I wouldn't mention it at all, but the issue of Meeko's preference for stark modernity over girlish decor was discussed, and this drew more attention to the gender of Emily's mystery spouse. If Meeko's gender was meant to remain a secret here, maybe the taste differences shouldn't have been emphasized in the text. A reader shouldn't feel tacky for wondering; Apartment Therapy brought it up.
Lovely, cheerful place! I really like the wallpaper in the hallway and the gorgeous built-in cupboard in the living room.
Emily and I lived together in college :) She decorated like this even when she was a broke college student!
@coursetalk - Meeko is Emily's husband
Here are Emily's comments back:
Hi and thank you all so much for the fabulous comments! Here are some details as per your questions above...
@moraija - yes, they are the Corona couches from Macys, and for the size and price we love them!
@noogs - the kitchen dish towels are from Anthropologie and William Sonoma
@richardrothstein.com - the trunk we use as a coffee table is from Target
@puccilevy - the mug holder is awesome! It's from Cost Plus World Market and they have it in different colors and even sizes!
@anniejm - our dresser and nightstand are from the Hemnes collection at IKEA and the smaller nightstand is from Cost Plus.
@djt54 - my sister is just graduating college and working on her portfolio site, but if you are interested in commissioning her, or seeing more photos of her work (she is amazing!) her email is firstname.lastname@example.com
thank you again for all the wonderful comments! I am so excited to share our newlywed nest with all of you!
Such a sweet and lovingly put together young newlywed's apartment. Somehow I feel as though i know you both, just a little. Hoping your lives together are always fresh and sunfilled.
love it!
...and thank you for posting the layout...it helps a lot going through :)
Love your serene space. Would you mind sharing the name of the paint color throughout? Any complaints about it? I love it!
What a sweet first apartment! It looks as though the space has really good bones. I adore the kitchen. Thank you for sharing!
Very cute apartment, thanks for sharing. One question: do you have any source info on the corner style sink in the bathroom. We also have a small bathroom and this looks perfect!
So cute! Thanks for posting!
Super cute! I love yellow. Where did you find that trashcan? The kitchen one?
Love it....where did the wicker coffee table/trunk in the living room come from?
I believe Emily said that the coffee table/trunk in the living room was from Target. I have a similar one (also from Target) - made from banana leaf. It is not as strong as a regular coffee table (my Shih Tzus think it's a great place to hang out!) and if you spill anything, it goes through to whatever you've stored inside -- so you might want to place a tray on top.
Mine holds my entire sheet and blanket collection.
You can also find the apology cards at:
nice job. love all the light.
What a lovely home! I adore all of the yellow and green...two of my favorite colors. So inviting and warm...really pretty & beautiful light! Thank you so much for sharing and I think you have lovely attention to detail and texture!
Congrats on your lovely home. Very nice.
Whoa, those comments seem overly harsh, not to mention illogical, kushkush. Also, the hallway you admire is E&M's own handiwork.
This is an amazing accomplishment for combining households and living in a place for merely a year. Emily, you've got a great eye and are clearly very talented, as demonstrated by your work area (which is my favorite space out of all the photos). Well done!
I love the light fixture in the bedroom. You can get gold painted round bulbs for vintage bare bulb fixtures at rejuvenation.com -- would probably go great with your sunny yellow. They also have old style carbon filament bulbs that look great in vintage fixtures. Make sure you use a low wattage, no more than 40 per bulb, because those fixtures were made before high wattage bulbs came along.
I am in love with the shower curtain. I wonder where that is from? It's the perfect combo of happy green, black, and natural tan colors.
A cup of coffee and a flaky croissant in hand, ... I hope you enjoy! http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=41873333
I second the request for where you purchased the retro yellow trash can in the kitchen. What a beautiful, well thought out, and inspiring home!
Lovely home!
I'm a big fan of yellow white in the kitchen.
Esp. love Emily's sister painting in the bedroom and the diminutive green bathroom.
I used to have the same trash can and I'm pretty sure it's by OXO - although I don't know if they still have that color available.
Beautiful, colorful & airy home!! You can decorate my place anytime!
Just wondering if this is a rental or if you own? It wasn't specified in the description.
Either way it's wonderful!
too much posing of cute objects. Otherwise...not bad.
The entire home is full of cute objects...they would be hard to avoid :)
I'm not usually a fan of white-ish walls, but you did a nice job making the space look cozy and lived in. And I love the numbered cactus planters! Where did you find them?
Does anyone know where that white tray that the yellow cups and coffee is on is from? I've been looking for a white tray with handles similar to that...
Beautiful home! Where did you get the bedside table?
Where are those black lanterns on the dresser from?
I love the yellow comforter and pillows on your bed...where did you get them?
i love your humble abode! just curious about the cardboard taxidermy, i looked on the site but didn't see one with the flowers, was that something you added yourself, if so how/what did you do? Thanks in advance :)
I don't know how I missed this tour in its original post! Thank goodness I saw it this morning, as it is delightful. It is very much a "Home Tour." Thank you for sharing!
i love your humble abode! just curious about the cardboard taxidermy, i looked on the site but didn't see one with the flowers, was that something you added yourself, if so how/what did you do? Thanks in advance :)
I love this space.... wonderful... beautiful and haha, quite minimalist... I am gonna send this to my husband and maybe we can also finally come to a compromise... :) btw, where can we get the "marriage" frame/card on your bedroom side table?? I need one!!!! :) FB
Ooooh, this is up there with my favourites - I'm a huge fan of yellow and love the way there are pops of it all the way through the house. Very comfortable yet also energising. Really lovely! Congrats!!
PS - I've seen that you've been on and answered a couple of questions so... if you read this... where is your beautiful yellow bedspread from? Fun but grown-up. I want one!!
I really like the shade of white in your living room. Do you mind sharing the color? You have a very lovely home. Thanks for posting.
I'm not usually a fan of yellow, but your place looks fab!
Your place is perfect in every detail but doesn't look too design-y. That kitchen is so big compared to your living room. Good thing you love the kitchen so much. I especially like your dining room/work space. I like small places like this that have nice details. I also love the yellow Kitchen Aid. What a good wedding present.
I love this place!! Filled with so many good things.
Love the anaglypta wallpaper in the hallway. Can you let me know the pattern name? Searched online and haven't seen anything quite as nice.
I love your home, it's so perfect. The pops of yellow are great.
love love love!
I love this place. I could live a zillion years and not have one ounce of your sense of style. How does your place look now? Can we have a re-visit?
Thank you for including a floorplan/layout. I wish every tour did this.

In October 2011, four race competing teams under the Volvo flag will embark on an eight-month-long adventure traveling around the world in some of the world's most treacherous seas. With such a dramatic event about to take place, it's no wonder Volvo is seizing the opportunity to offer a special edition Ocean Race Edition for four of its models: V60 , V70 , XC60 , and XC70 .
According to Lennart Stegland, President of the Special Vehicles division at Volvo Cars: "The cars in the Volvo Ocean Race Edition reflect all the values that our customers look for when they choose a car: an active lifestyle, adventure and passion, without compromising safety and environmental care."
"There are many features that in a very subtle way make you think about boats and sailing. The aluminum decor is designed in such a way that the pattern looks like a yacht harbour full of sailing boat masts. The stitching on the upholstery traces its roots to sail-making. The aluminum detailing on the mats resembles clews. And the design of the unique wheels has been inspired by the movement of the ocean's wave."
Hit the jump to read more about the Volvo Ocean Race Edition.
Exterior and Interior
All the models in the Ocean Race Edition will be offered with two luxurious exterior colors, Volvo Ocean Blue II or Electric Silver, in conjunction with the sail-inspired leather upholstery in off-black and soft beige.
The models will also be distinguished by aluminum wheels, chromed detailing, and the Volvo Ocean Race emblem gleaming on the front fender. For the interior, the model will add textile floor mats with clew-inspired details in aluminum and the tread plate in aluminum embossed with the text "Volvo Ocean Race."
The new Race Edition models can be combined with any existing engine in the line-up, including the new four-cylinder 2.0T GTDi with 203 HP and 300 NM of torque; two new 1.6-liter GTDi engines, one with 150 HP and one with 180 HP; two five-cylinder turbodiesels consisting of a D5 with 205 HP and 420 Nm of torque and a D3 with 163 HP and 400 Nm of torque and also a new DRIVe diesel that delivers 115 HP and 270 Nm of torque.
The new Volvo Ocean Race editions will go on sale in June 2011 and there will be about 7,500 units offered. Prices will be announced at a later date.
A very serious competitor for the Volvo V60 is the recently launched Saab 9-3 Griffin . The model will be offered with a choice of TTiD engines that deliver 130, 160, or 180 HP, but there will also be two new, more efficient petrol engines offered in 163 HP and 220 HP variants. Compared to the 9-3 model however, the new V60 features a more attractive design and a more luxurious interior, so it has quite an advantage over the Saab model.
The XC60, on the other hand, takes on models like the Acura RDX . The 2011 RDX is powered by a turbocharged 2.3-liter DOHC 16-valve inline four-cylinder engine that delivers a total of 240 HP at 6,000 rpm with 260 lb-ft of torque at 4,500 rpm. The engine is mated to a 5-speed automatic transmission and delivers 19/24/21 mpg on the RDX 2WD models and 17/22/19 mpg on the RDX SH-AWD ones.
- Looks great in blue
- Cool interior appearance
- Nice wheels design
- No Ocean race edition for S60
- Limited edition
- Not a lot of extras for a special edition

What experiences have made you more comfortable with mental health disorders?
What things make you fearful of mental health disorders? And what experiences have made you more comfortable with it?
In the quest to dispell stigma, how can we help our society grow out of its fear?

Oct 28 2012: The experience that made me become most comfortable with my own and other's people mental illness was one conversation I had with a neighbor, a veteran, that in a moment of clarity he said: "People say I am crazy and treat me like I do not know what I am doing. No one knows how hard and so much smarter I have to be in order to live independently with my condition". It was like finding a mirror. So liberating.
Then we joked about how the majority of people and care providers that give us treatment have NO IDEA how is to be in our heads. They cannot imagine the same way I cannot imagine thinking "normal" without the days floating around me. For me that conversation gave me more acceptance and made me conscious that us, those who live with mental conditions, have some sort of a special culture unfamiliar to many. That gave me comfort.

FireMon Policy Optimizer Module, released June 2014, automates key elements of the process necessary to adapt network security device policies to respond to changing conditions. Policy Optimizer dramatically advances the identification and improvement of troublesome firewall configurations in relation to emerging threats, evolving business demands and maturing compliance requirements, providing a centralized workflow allowing security teams to interact directly with other network access stakeholders, with integrated risk analysis.
Policy Optimizer supports complex, heterogeneous networks containing multiple firewall vendor technologies. The workflow is customizable to meet the needs of any organization. And with RESTful API's exposed, integration into existing change management systems is natively supported.
Transform security infrastructure management by automating the change review process, from rule analysis to policy modification, as well as recertification and documentation. View our video here:
Automatically generate requests for device policy and rule review to address changing security conditions affecting network access. Policy Review connects network security teams directly with those officials that initially requested access, unearthing hidden, shadowed or undocumented settings and validating that existing configurations do not allow overly permissive access. Common scenarios that Policy Review can assist with are:
- Access Risk Change: a large percentage of firewall policy settings are problematic or out-of-date. Quickly review and improve troublesome rules without affecting necessary services or existing standards compliance requirements.
- Rule Recertification: many industry standards such as PCI DSS require frequent review and recertification of related access policies. Directly align network security and compliance audit teams to analyze and validate all related rules and configurations.
- Best Practices Adoption: holistic improvement of overall network security infrastructure protection dramatically strengthens defenses and reduces breach exposure. Safely remove expired rules and those that introduce multiple control failures, or have been modified from their original purpose.
Analyze every aspect of rule review, driven by real-world events, to identify control failures, understand usage and apply best practices for improving or removing access, when possible.
Utilize a closed-loop workflow to ensure that network security compliance requirements are being met and advance the process of periodic rules recertification for standards including PCI DSS.
Leverage a wide array of powerful tools to automate policy identification, analysis and editing, including dynamic search capabilities built around the proprietary FireMon Security Intelligence Query Language (SIQL) enabling full-scope evaluation, review and testing of device configurations.
Automatically identify those policies and rules that demand immediate analysis driven by real-world events, including time frame expiration, critical security control failure, periodic review or ad-hoc query; complemented by manual routing.
Easily change the built-in workflow to meet your custom needs. Because it is built on BPMN 2.0 task types, including forks, parallel paths, timers and notifications, you can build a workflow specific to your environment.
Integrate with existing change management systems seamlessly. Policy Planner supports many integration options and connection points throughout the change process. Supported change management systems include:
- HP Service Manager
- BMC Remedy
- Service Now
- Proprietary Systems

It's Time for the PSAT/NMSQT
- Monday, October 07, 2002
OK ... Probably some of you know why this topic is important already. Others probably have no idea, thinking we are talking about some special military nomenclature, or that this is some silly acronym for "Public Schools Are Trouble / Now Moms Should Quit Testing" or something like that.
However, those of you who are "enlightened" recognize this as the Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test and National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test. It's a standardized test given annually at public schools across America.
And yes, the date for this year's test, Saturday, Oct. 19, is right around the corner.
What's the point? You might want to consider having your home schooler take the test to qualify for academic scholarships.
We are going to discuss this test as if you don't have any idea what the PSAT/NMSQT is about. So if you are familiar with it, then just browse the article and pass it along to those whom you know who may not be so well-informed. Some of the basic rules have changed.
Don't confuse the PSAT with the more well known SAT I (Scholastic Aptitude Test) given to college-bound high school students as part of the qualification requirements for most colleges and universities in the United States. Although this test is designed and administered by the same people who do the SAT I and II (the College Board organization), it is an altogether different exam. The PSAT/NMSQT is actually sponsored by two organizations, the College Boards (www.collegeboard.org/psat/student/html/indx001.html) and the National Merit Scholarship Corporation (www.nationalmerit.org).
Some people erroneously think it is a preparatory test for taking the SAT, but it is really quite different. The PSAT has been around for several decades, since 1955. When we were in high school we were unaware of any preparatory classes or workbooks to "bone up" for the PSAT.
Now there are preparatory books available to help students prepare for this test, which we highly recommend. Since most students will have used some form of test preparation, your student may be at a disadvantage if he/she does not. (We have some test preparation resources available at our website, www.davidandlaurie.com.)
The PSAT/NMSQT isn't all that significant to home schoolers, except that it is the only way to qualify for National Merit Scholarships. If your student does well enough, like any student, it can provide a huge amount of scholarship money from the PSAT/NMSQT. We have known of home schoolers who have done very well on the NMSQT, earning scholarship money to the tune of tens of thousands of dollars. So it may be well worth your student's time and effort to take this test.
Frankly, our children never took it. We just didn't want to bother with having our children register with the school district and have to go marching down to the examination location (the local high school in most cases) on a Saturday morning for three hours. Perhaps we were naïve of the opportunity to get free money. But, as we have always said, the parents are responsible for determining the educational opportunities for their children. This goes for taking tests as well. But you as a parent should know about it so that you can make your own informed decision.
For those who are interested, now is the time to consider this idea seriously. The qualifying age is a bit tricky. Usually if you have a high school Junior (that is your child is at the age where he or she would be considered in eleventh grade), then go to your local high school guidance office and register.
But that actually depends. This year's students are qualifying for entry to competitions for scholarships to be awarded in the Fall of 2004. The scores from this test will be used to determine semi-finalists who then will need to meet academic and other standards to advance to the finalist level in order to receive scholarships. Go to www.nationalmerit.org/merit.htm to learn more.

MORRIS, PA—On Monday, October 8, Charles Newlin, Pro-Am Committee Representative, presented Liberty Summer Recreation Coordinator Tom Jones and members of the Liberty Little League Team with a $1,000 check donation from Laurel Health.
The funds were raised during Laurel Health's 2011 Pro-Am Golf Tournament and will be used to maintain the fields and purchase equipment and uniforms for the 100+ children ages 5 through 14 participating in Liberty Little League / summer programs.
Through outstanding community support, the LHS Pro-Am Golf tournament has raised more than $379,500 over the years to benefit thousands of children, allowing local students the opportunity to pursue healthcare careers on scholarship, and local recreation programs to utilize the funds to purchase necessary grounds upkeep, team uniforms, and much-needed equipment, ensuring they run safely and effectively. A committee reviews all requests, and funds are awarded based on need.
Recreational organizations in Tioga County interested in applying for money raised at the 2012 tournament should contact the Laurel Health System Development Office at (570) 723-0494.

Joshua Needs a Stem Cell Match
Joshua Biyoyouwei has been a patient of Children's since being diagnosed with sickle cell anemia at 3 months old. Ever since, he has faced numerous medical challenges, including having a stroke when he was 18 months old after a three-day bout with an extremely high fever.
"That was the worst day of my life," says Joshua's mom, Vera Johnson.
The result of the stroke created more challenges for Joshua.
Now 6, Joshua is wheelchair bound and will require physical therapy for the rest of his life. And to ensure he does not have another stroke (50 to 70% of patients with sickle cell anemia who have a stroke will have another if left untreated), Joshua must receive blood transfusions for the rest of his life.
The transfusions work to prevent another stroke and reduce the other symptoms of his sickle cell disease by replacing his red blood cells containing sickle hemoglobin with red blood cells containing normal hemoglobin.
Joshua takes several medications and antibiotics daily, including a medication to reduce the high levels of iron in his body caused from the blood transfusions.
Through all the challenges, Joshua is one of the most upbeat, happy kids you will meet. His smile lights up a room, and he's eager to meet new faces and give high-fives. He enjoys throwing the football around and playing with his two sisters.
Waiting for a Stem Cell Transplant
The one thing that could change Joshua's life would be a stem cell transplant. A transplant would mean a cure for his sickle cell, no more blood transfusions and stopping the medications he's taking now.
"It would be a godsend, like a second chance for us," Vera said. "Joshua would have a better chance at a regular life. He just wants to play baseball and football. And we just want to give him the chance to fulfill his dreams."
A stem cell transplant would replace the abnormal cells in his body with healthy blood-forming cells. But he still needs to find his perfect match. Only about 25% of patients find a match through a family member. The rest, like Joshua, must rely on finding an unrelated donor through the Be The Match® donor registry for a suitable match.
Joshua was very close to finding that match at the end of 2012, but the potential donor was not the perfect match Joshua's doctors at Children's would have liked to ensure a successful procedure.
Unfortunately for Joshua, the wait could be even longer because of his race.
According to Be The Match, "Patients are most likely to match someone of their own race or ethnicity. Today, there simply aren't enough Registry members of diverse racial and ethnic heritage."

An Arizona prison inmate said he choked his cellmate to death, stomped his head and then bit him in the groin so he could remain in prison, according to a Pinal County Sheriff's Office spokesman.
Tim Gaffney said the sheriff's office was asking that a first-degree murder charge to be filed against Roberto Venegas Fernandez, 43, who reportedly told homicide detectives the he liked prison and was afraid of being released so he killed Michael Patrick McNaughton, 55, Saturday morning, Gaffney said.
Fernandez said he stomped and bit the victim to ensure he would get first-degree murder, Gaffney said.
Investigators originally investigated the death as the result of a fight between the men, who were housed together in the Corrections Corporation of America, a privately run prison in Florence contracted by the U.S. Marshals Service, Gaffney said.
But Fernandez later told detectives that he choked McNaughton while he was sitting on his bunk.
PCSO Sheriff Paul Babeu said Fernandez is from Mexico and was convicted for committing a sex crime in the U.S. He was approaching his release from prison and allegedly killed McNaughton so he wouldn't be sent back to Mexico, Babeu said.

Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I love this school. My kids have been here since they opened up the school and I have 2 of them in the 4th grade. The teachers are wonderful and they actually care about the students and their families. I also love when they have like their family game nites movies nites and dances. I give this school a 10 out of 10. I'm gonna cry when my kids leave this school..
I had 4 children that went to this awesome school. We just moved to a different town but still wish we went there. The teachers and staff care and love their jobs they love teaching not just that you will find them helping out at family night which they have one almost every month. Just a great place for our children;)
This is a great school! The staff is always there when ever needed. I have four children that goes to this school and they love it!! Thay also have many family nights that we look forward to every month,
I couldn't disagree more with the Great Schools rating. This brand new school features cutting edge technology that I have not seen in suburban districts. The principal and staff are extremely hardworking professionals that work extremely well with the parents. The "two way" Spanish English program that teaches kids from Kindergarten on in both languages and all subjects is an extraordinary model for multi-lingual education.

Rouge Automatique's story, a small Art Deco wonder born in 1936, which was the first lipstick without a cap and with a technique requiring a single hand: What a heritage!

Objective two: Boosted colours - A tailor-made shine with made-to-measure sheerness thanks to the Cristal Pigment, which makes it possible to obtain luminous, clear and pure colours with no white effect. Objective three: Remarkable long-lasting hold that combines immediate comfort and lasting radiance. An exceptional shine, stay-put colour, feather-proof lipstick thanks to a complex of oil and resin. The Crystal Pigment boosts the colours which become clear and pure with no white effect, for a tailor-made shine and a made-to-measure sheerness.

- Traditional middle income first home buyers (recently married, young, either has children or children on the way or planning to have children, ...) are no longer buying homes. They're either not having kids, urban renting (townhouses, etc), or the big one, electing to live at home with their parents. Buying a home is now seen as a step towards unnecessary debt, not as a step towards independence. Where is that "first home downpayment" money going? Either towards a lavish wedding or to developing a portfolio or (get ready for it) investing in real estate.
- The wealthy (low to mid upper income) are spending their money improving their homes rather than buying summer homes, vacation homes, winter lodges and the like. Time-sharing, which had gone out of favor for quite a while, is coming back in this income bracket. Money which would have gone to taking the entire family to Switzerland for a month long ski holiday is staying local and more often than not, staying right in their own backyard.
- The big one (as far as our analysis showed) was that many 20s and early 30yos are bypassing buying a traditional starter home. They're looking at the economy, the world, their jobs and educational financial burdens and deciding that the starter-home-then-upgrade route isn't an option. They're waiting until they're sure their marriage, work and family situation are stable then going directly into a home they'll keep until they retire if not longer. The market's too much in flux and nothing's offering the security it did in the 1950s-1990s, so they might as well get a home they believe will keep them happy and can grow a family in rather than one that may only last them five or so years.

Congratulations to the following officials that have been selected by the National Hockey League to work the 2012-13 Stanley Cup Final series between the Chicago Blackhawks and the Boston Bruins:
Referees: Wes McCauley, Dan O'Halloran , Chris Rooney, Brad Watson
Linesmen: Shane Heyer, Brian Murphy, Pierre Racicot, Jay Sharrers
The majority of players from both teams and the game officials are no strangers to the excitement and pressures that surround a Cup Final. They have been there before and know what it takes to succeed. One notable exception is referee Wes McCauley, who will appear in the Final for the first time. Inclusion as a member of the 'Final Four' referees and linesmen is a huge accomplishment. Being selected is certainly the pinnacle of every official's career and a signal to the hockey world that they are regarded as the best of the best.
Referee McCauley has had a terrific playoff run by my ratings and certainly deserves his place at the top. His uncanny 'feel' for the game (almost a lost art) allowed for the expected playoff intensity to flourish in each game he called. Most importantly, McCauley demonstrated the courage and good judgment to make the tough call at any point in the game regardless of the score or time. He did not put his whistle away!
Wes McCauley is about to enter uncharted waters. The stakes are higher and the focus of the hockey world intensifies in this final round. I remember it well. No one gets to this level of proficiency without the assistance of coworkers and mentors. The night prior to my first Stanley Cup Final game, I had the good fortune of dining with the best mentor I could have hoped for. John McCauley, then Director of Officiating (Wes McCauley's father) prepared me for what to expect and instilled in me the confidence I needed to succeed.
John McCauley had been a well respected referee in the NHL until his career was cut short from a sucker-punch in the eye by a drunken hockey fan from Kapuskaing, Ontario. The blow was delivered after the Soviet National Team had trounced a collection of NHL All-Stars in the third and final game of the 1979 Challenge Cup at Madison Square Garden.
The 'Master' (as John was affectionately called) was a very good communicator, was blessed with a very quick wit and terrific judgment that served him well as both a referee and following his eye injury as Director of Officiating. One time in the Boston Garden, Wayne Cashman was upset at one of McCauley's calls and told the Master he was going to shoot a puck at the ref's head. John didn't bat an eye and told Cashman if that was the case he would just skate over and stand in the opponents net. From that location he would be safest guy in the building if 'Cash' was aiming for him!
It was a hot and sunny afternoon in May, 1985, when I arrived in Philadelphia prior to Game 2 of the Cup Final between the Flyers and the Edmonton Oilers. It was just my third season to have participated in the Stanley Cup Playoffs and a selection to the Final could have very easily overwhelmed me. I checked into the Hershey Hotel on Broad Street that was designated as the NHL headquarters and media hotel. The lobby was bustling with activity and swarming with members of the media; the likes of which I had never experienced. As I looked for an escape route from the lobby mob scene I was approached by my boss, John McCauley, who invited me to join him for an early dinner.
Looking back on it now I believe it wasn't just by chance, but more by design, that I 'bumped' into the Master and was invited to dinner. John wanted to make sure that I got off on the right foot by preparing me for this new experience. He truly cared about his staff; each and every one of us and was the kind of boss you would go through the wall for. After we ordered dinner, John asked me how I was feeling. I confessed to being a little nervous (understatement) but was excited about the opportunity he had given me. What John McCauley shared with me in that moment is what he would also tell his eldest son Wes if John had not passed away at just 45 years of age following the 1989 Stanley Cup Final. I now pass along the Master's words of wisdom from that conversation to Wes McCauley as he too prepares for his first appearance in the Stanley Cup Finals.
"You earned the right to be here (selection to Stanley Cup Final) based on your work throughout these playoffs. I assigned you to some very tough games and you passed the test with flying colors. You have proven to me that I can put you in any situation and you will neither disappoint nor let me down. Your work made the games better. I have the utmost confidence in your ability. That confidence is being rewarded with your first selection to the Stanley Cup Final. While I know there will be many more Cup Finals in your future, take this one game at a time. Prepare yourself and officiate no differently than you have in all the other games I have assigned you to. Enjoy the moment and have fun with it. I trust in your ability and most of all I believe in you!"
I have no doubt that referee Wes McCauley will do a great job in his first trip to the Stanley Cup Final. If he listens closely in his heart, I would also bet that he will hear his father whisper the same words of wisdom and vote of confidence that the Master offered me.
