Starting with the open talon claw and ball feet—a rarity—this table has it all. It has the desirable concertina action, which makes for a very sturdy table, and is highly sought after by collectors. The legs have leaf carving on the knees with uniquely pronounced scrollwork. In addition to its original drawer and hardware, this table is in a fine original state of preservation. Its scale is very dynamic, as the claw and ball feet are very well developed, and connote a strong stance.
This table is the best of its kind, and was retailed in New York by Hyde Park Antiques, Ltd., an outfit known for high quality antiques.

Increasing the cache size for greater speed
Increasing the cache size for greater speed
Here I want to share with you a few tips and tricks that will help you significantly improve Lightroom's performance. For starters, you want to be working with fast hard drives that have fast connections. You also want to have more RAM. If there is anything that Lightroom loves in regards to performance, it's RAM. So be sure to always upgrade that, or buy a system with a lot of RAM. The other things that we can do have to do with a few preferences, so let's go ahead and take a look at those. for starters, we're going to go to the Lightroom pulldown menu and then click on Catalog Settings.
Now, if speed is a priority, you definitely want to have this check box turned off. You do not want to automatically write changes into XMP. That will definitely slow down Lightroom. Now, if you're new to catalogs and new to this topic of catalog settings, it may be worthwhile to go back and watch one of those previous movies where we talked about catalogs. Yet that being said, if speed ...

Clairemont Coco's out, Chick-fil-A in
Some satisfied, some dismayed at approval of "another fast-food joint"
Julie Stalmer 6:30 p.m., July 23
At approximately 1:15 p.m. on March 7, two cars were involved in a head-on collision near Ramona. An unidentified 19-year-old female lost control of her vehicle and veered into the opposing lane. The driver and three passengers in the other vehicle were all transported to the hospital with minor to moderate injuries.
The incident happened at San Vicente Road and Wildcat Canyon Road, blocking traffic for about a half an hour. Traffic was turned around and diverted to alternate routes until around 2 p.m. Three fire trucks and two ambulances responded to the accident that sent the four people to the hospital.

With Matt Brown sustaining two herniated disks in his back, Carlos Condit is without a opponent and ultimately a fight at UFC on Fox 9.
The match-up was one of the most anticipated for the Sacramento, Calif. card, and that sentiment was true for both the fans and fighters. The reality, Condit said, leaves him let down and hoping for some after-holiday rescheduling.
"I was greatly disappointed to hear of Matt Brown's injury," Condit said in a statement. "This was a fight that I was looking forward to immensely, and I know it was a fight the fans have been excited to see. When the fight does happen, I promise that the wait will be worth it.
"Right now I'm going to spend time with my family over the holidays, and hope that Matt heals up quickly so that we can reschedule this fight soon."
The Condit-Brown fight getting scrapped was another forced reshuffling of the UFC on Fox 9 card, which has undergone major makeovers in the weeks leading in. Initially, Anthony Pettis was scheduled to face T.J. Grant for the lightweight title in the evening's headliner, then Grant was forced out due to injury. Thereafter, Pettis was to face Josh Thomson, but then Pettis pulled out. A flyweight title fight between Demetrious Johnson defending his belt in a rematch against Joseph Benavidez was slid in as the latest main event.
With Condit and Brown being the latest casualties from the injury bug, Joe Lauzon and Mac Danzig were moved up to the main card.
There are currently 11 fights scheduled for the Dec. 14 fight card.

CHICAGO, Jan. 13, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Tribune today announced the appointment of Kathy Clements as Chief Operating Officer for its broadcasting division, effective immediately. She joins Lynda King, who was appointed last week to a similar position with the division. Like King, Clements will report to Larry Wert, Tribune's President/Broadcast Media, and will assist him in overseeing the operation of the company's portfolio of 42 owned or operated television stations across the country.
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20140113/CG45142)
Clements was formerly SVP/Media Operations for Belo Corp. and was responsible for the company's broadcast, cable, and digital business in 15 markets across the country, with direct oversight of nine television stations and all of their associated media platforms. She served as President/General Manager of WFAA-TV in Dallas, the nation's fifth-largest market, for ten years, from 1997 to 2007.
"Kathy's talent, leadership, and broad experience in broadcasting and digital media, is a great fit for our station group," said Wert. "She and Lynda complement each other perfectly and make a great team—I am looking forward to working with them both to find innovative ways of expanding our audience reach on and off the air."
Clements joined WFAA in 1984 as a sales account executive and held a variety of positions of increasing responsibility during the course of her career with Belo. She was named SVP/Media Operations in 2008 and among other duties, assumed responsibility for negotiating all group syndicated programming agreements, and oversaw news content, digital and social initiatives.
"Tribune has some of the strongest stations in the best markets in the country," said Clements. "This is a powerful platform for reaching people over the air and digitally, and we have a solid foundation from which to build share and ratings—there is a lot of opportunity for us ahead."
TRIBUNE is one of the country's leading multimedia companies, operating businesses in broadcasting, publishing, and interactive. The company's broadcasting group owns or operates 42 television stations, WGN America on national cable, the national multicast networks Antenna TV and THIS TV, Tribune Studios and Chicago's WGN-AM. In publishing, Tribune's leading daily newspapers include the Los Angeles Times, Chicago Tribune, The Baltimore Sun, Sun Sentinel (South Florida), Orlando Sentinel, Hartford Courant, The Morning Call and Daily Press. Popular news and information websites complement Tribune's print and broadcast properties and extend the company's nationwide audience.

Early adopters of IoT viewed it mainly as a different term for machine-to-machine connectivity or M2M. This is understandable since a prerequisite for any IoT solution is the ability to collect and aggregate device data, which is most often presented in a dashboard. The problem is that viewing data in a dashboard requires a human to interpret the results and take manual action, which doesn't scale to the needs of IoT.

WEDNESDAY, March 30, 2016 (HealthDay News) -- People with persistent symptoms associated with Lyme disease are unlikely to find relief from longer-term antibiotic therapy, according to a new Dutch study.
Although antibiotics are the correct therapy to treat Lyme disease when it is diagnosed early, longer-term use appears ineffective against the symptoms linked to the tick-borne illness and may carry the risk of side effects, the researchers said.
"Most patients with Lyme disease are cured after initial antibiotic therapy. But, up to 20 percent of patients report persistent symptoms, such as muscular or joint pain, fatigue or concentration problems, despite initial antibiotic therapy," said study senior researcher Dr. Bart-Jan Kullberg. He is a professor of infectious diseases at Radboud University Medical Center in Nijmegen, the Netherlands.
Treating these patients with longer courses of antibiotics has been controversial, Kullberg said. "Previous clinical trials have not shown that prolonged antibiotic treatment has beneficial effects in patients with persistent symptoms attributed to Lyme disease. Nonetheless, the debate about this issue has continued," he said.
The major conclusion from this new study is that three months of antibiotic therapy does not provide additional benefits to patients reporting persistent symptoms of pain, fatigue or mental confusion, he said.
"These patients need customized care, not just a prescription for antibiotics," Kullberg said.
The study findings were published March 31 in the New England Journal of Medicine.
The debate over what's often called chronic Lyme disease dates back almost as far as the discovery of the illness 40 years ago. Many sufferers insist that chronic Lyme is a very real disease. But many medical experts say the symptoms could be those of an undiagnosed illness in patients.
The new study included 280 patients in Europe who suffered from symptoms such as muscle and joint pain, fatigue and concentration problems, and were previously diagnosed with Lyme disease.
During the first two weeks of the trial, all the patients were given the antibiotic ceftriaxone (Rocephin). Then they were randomly divided into three groups. The first group was given the antibiotic doxycycline (Doryx) for 12 weeks; the second group was given a combination of the antibiotics clarithromycin (Biaxin) and hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil); and the third group was given a placebo.

She's Out.. She's Kicking Ass!,
This review is from: She's Out [DVD] [1995] (DVD)
I would recommend this DVD to anyone who enjoys Lynda la Plante's work. I watched this when it was aired on TV 10 years ago and have been waiting for it's release since then. The book is also great. It's so good that I read it twice! Couldn't put it down once I had picked it up. The acting is excellent, especially Ann Mitchell, who plays the lead role as Dolly. I would recommend viewers to watch the Widows DVDs first and then this as the story of She's Out follows Widows. I can't recommend this DVD highly enough, especially at Amazon's great low price. Buy it now!

Joel Blanco-Rivera's Curriculum Vitae
My name is Kirk James Beattie (pronounced bay-tee). I grew up in a small, mostly suburban town called Clarkston on the far northern edge of metropolitan Detroit, Michigan. I attended an excellent, private college, Kalamazoo College, in Kalamazoo, Michigan as an undergraduate. I majored in Political Science, and minored in French. I went to southern France on a junior year abroad program, and was totally smitten. I returned to France to conduct my senior thesis on a topic suggested by my college advisor, and about which I knew nothing: French foreign policy in the Middle East. This is literally how my lifelong interest in Middle East and North African politics began. At the time, the U.S. had no diplomatic relations with most countries in the region, a situation I felt could not last because of American allies' energy needs, if not those of the U.S. Still enamored with France, I returned there for nine months following graduation from college. I audited Arabic and sat in on Political Science courses at the Institut d'Etudes Politiques in Aix-en-Provence.
During my third stay in France, I applied to graduate school programs in Political Science, and was accepted at The University of Michigan, the #2 program in the U.S. Over time I specialized in Comparative Politics, having acquired the impression that this subfield placed greater emphasis on understanding people's concerns, beliefs and sentiments than did the International Relations subfield. Because I have a great fondness for foreign languages, and have been relatively adept at their acquisition, I went on to apply for various language grants and fellowships over the coming years, all of which either assisted me to pay for my graduate studies at Michigan in first Arabic, then Persian, and/or enabled me to seek admission to special, federally funded foreign study programs, such as the Tunisian Summer Study program, or the Center for Arabic Study Abroad program in Cairo, Egypt. I was fortunate to be selected for participation in these nationally competitive programs, as well as to be the recipient of several other national grants, such as an International Rotary Foundation Fellowship, and two Fulbright fellowships, that permitted me lengthy stays in Egypt or France.
With a background in Economic Development and Political Economy and a joint appointment in Economics and Women's and Gender Studies, Professor Biewener's most current research interests address the political economy of food – a fabulous way of combining her love of gardening and food with her keen interest in community economies.
In 2013 she completed a long-term, collaborative research project with Marie-Hélène Bacqué (Professor of Urban Studies, Université de Paris Ouest Nanterre) that traced the genealogy of the term "empowerment" in the fields of gender and development, urban policy and social work. Publications from this research include "Feminism and the Politics of Empowerment in International Development" (forthcoming in Air and Space Power Journal–Africa and Francophonie); L'empowerment, une pratique emancipatrice (Editions La Découverte, 2013; Spanish translation forthcoming in 2015); and "Different manifestations of the concept of empowerment. The politics of urban renewal in the United States and Great Britain" (International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, August 2012).
Prior research and publications have addressed community development and social economy projects in the United States and Canada, debates at the intersection of poststructuralist feminism and postmodern Marxism, and the French Socialist government's financial and industrial policies in the 1980s.
Currently Professor Biewener is an Associate Editor for Signs, Journal of Women in Culture and Society and she has served on the Editorial Board of Rethinking Marxism (1990-2001). In 2009 she co-organized (with Randy Albelda,
UMass-Boston) the 18th Annual Conference of the International Association for Feminist Economics, "Engendering Economic Policy," which was hosted by Simmons College.
Professor Biewener oversees the Economics Department Internship program, and was Coordinator for the interdisciplinary minor in Social Justice from 2004-2013.
Pam Bromberg began her academic career as a Blake scholar and has migrated over the years to teaching and scholarly work on a broad variety of writers, including contemporary women and post-colonial novelists. Recent publications include essays on Blake's visual art, but also on the work of Margaret Drabble, Margaret Atwood, Lillian Hellman, and Buchi Emecheta. She has also contributed essays on teaching Austen's Pride and Prejudice and Emma to the MLA's Approaches to Teaching volumes; a new essay on "Mansfield Park:s Austen's Most Teachable Novel" has just been published in the series. She has recently presented work on Margaret Atwood at international conferences, leading to the publication of an essay in Margaret Atwood: The Open Eye.
Her interest in Austen has inspired a seminar on Jane Austen and Virginia Woolf, a course that provides in depth study of the development of two of England's greatest novelists. In recent years she has been teaching exciting new seminars on the Postcolonial Novel and The Colonial Legacy in Africa: History and Literature. In both of those courses students have the opportunity to work on novels of their choosing for final projects.
Nanette Veilleux is a professor in the computer science and information technology department. Her research interests include primary research in computational models of speech, as well as investigations of pedagogical methods in STEM education. The first topic involves primary research into the categories of English prosody (emphasis and phrasing) and can be used to improve automatic speech understanding. The later topic involves an approach to pedagogy that is not only effective to convey discipline knowledge but also encourages students to remain and thrive in their disciplines. She is currently principle investigator on two collaborative NSF funded grants.
Nanette Veilleux's Curriculum Vitae
Richard Wollman is Professor of Creative Writing, Shakespeare, and 17th Century Literature. He is both a poet and a sculptor whose work may be viewed on his website.
Professor Wollman is on the Advisory Board for the Mass Poetry Outreach Program at UMass Lowell as well as the Massachusetts Cultural Council in Newburyport. He is on the Executive Committee of the Powow River Poets and is a member of both the Newburyport Art Association and the John Donne Society.
I joined the nursing faculty full-time in 2004 after having taught clinically for Simmons for more than 10 years. I maintain an active clinical practice at Brigham and Women's Hospital in the Center for Women and Newborns in postpartum and the newborn nursery.
I spearhead the Nursing Simulation Program at Simmons and played an instrumental role in integrating simulation throughout the nursing curriculum and creating the Simulation Lab. I am also the Director of the Dotson Nursing Clinical Simulation and Learning Lab and teach pediatrics/OB.
My photo-based practice includes text, sound and installation. Currently I am examining American communities through the lens of state-run lotteries. My projects have been featured on the PBS show Greater Boston with Emily Rooney, Business Insider, Lenscratch, Photo District News and Virgin Australia Magazine.
After obtaining her doctoral degree in occupational epidemiology from the Harvard School of Public Health in 2002, Dr. Susan Duty joined the nursing faculty in the nursing program at Simmons College. She is an associate professor and teaches across the baccalaureate, master's and doctoral curriculums. She is also certified as an Adult Nurse Practitioner with specialization in Occupational Health.
Ben Cole joined the faculty of Simmons College in 2012 after a one-year post-doctoral fellowship at the Nelson A. Rockefeller Center at Dartmouth College. Before that, Ben taught for three years as Hood House Lecturer in International Affairs at the University of New Hampshire (his alma mater). Since 2011 he has also served as a Research Associate at the Center for Systemic Peace, where he collaborates with his doctoral research mentor, Dr. Monty G. Marshall, on the production of cross-national governance and conflict datasets and publication of the Global Report series.
Ben's teaching philosophy is characterized by a passion for collaborating with students in research, learning, and advising. He enjoys leading teams of student researchers, redesigning and teaching new classes, and talking with students about life and career plans. When not working with students, Ben loves spending time working on the family farm with his wife, Shannon, two beautiful children, and his grandfather, sailing along the coast, or settling into a good book with a hot pot of coffee at hand.

I'd say that this is a big blow to the Giants, but Cain hasn't been as effective as previously nor as the Giants had hoped. If he's gonna stink up the mound then it's best just to get the surgery over with as Bochy said. It's magnified by the Giants pennant race (do we still call it a pennant race?)
Are these guys running a Dremel tool with grinder tip over their joints?
Basically, yes.

The way you advertise is changing rapidly. Television, radio and print are being augmented – if not replaced – by blogs, Facebook, Instagram and customer-generated content. However, the laws and regulations regarding false, misleading or deceptive advertising still apply, even to social media.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) provides the precedent and regulatory expectations about what is appropriate in advertising across all media. To avoid risks of consumer class actions and governmental investigations of social media advertising claims, lawyers, marketers, ad agencies and compliance managers must be aware of these guidelines.
This webinar presented by Consumer Protection Defense and Compliance Partner Tony DiResta will discuss the regulation of social media and what the FTC expects from companies engaged in social media marketing.
Duration: 1 hour
President Obama signed legislation to amend the nation's chemical safety law, the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). The amendments will update the law and create new duties and authorities for the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), as well as new obligations and risks for a wide range of industries, including those that manufacture or import chemicals, consumer goods, building materials, automobiles, aircraft, computer hardware and many other items.
In this webinar, Dimitri Karakitsos of the U.S. Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works joins Holland & Knight's Benjamin Dunham and Bonni Kaufman to review the most important elements of the new law. Mr. Karakitsos was the primary staff author of the new law, and Mr. Dunham was chief counsel to the late Sen. Frank R. Lautenberg (D-N.J.). Sen. Lautenberg is the namesake of the new law and was author of the bill that served as the basis for the updated chemical safety law. Bonni Kaufman practices environmental law and frequently advises clients on TSCA legal issues.
Duration: 1 hour 25 minutes

In addition to all the benefits, IoT is also bringing new kind of customer experience challenges - cars that unlock themselves, thermostats turning houses into saunas and baby video monitors broadcasting over the internet. This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity. So finding a performance issue is like finding the proverbial needle in the haystack.

In today's digital economy, companies see the revenue potential offered by data monetization and are striving to capitalize on it--preferably before their competitors do. This is particularly evident in the publishing industry, where some companies are already achieving incremental success by leveraging existing data about their consumers to generate new revenue streams. However, the majority of companies still need to determine how they want their organizations to leverage consumer data. More importantly, they need to consider how to synergize data trends emerging around both their existing base of consumers and a target demographic that may present new revenue opportunities, all of which is going through a degree of disruption in the market.
Steve Smith
Jun 19, 2006
As our content divides, sub-divides, and disperses like so many amoeba into the new digital mediaverse, anxiety must be running high among media companies. Ad dollars visibly drained from network television and print this past year, and most media budgets are fully in play now. Advertising allegiances are fluid, as big-brand accounts flip daily from agency to agency, and chief marketing officers warn the whole ad business that they better start coming up with answers to this growing problem of how to focus the scattering eyeballs of a fragmented landscape and deliver measurable results. Many in the media and ad industries are predicting doom, gloom, or at least a long passage through chaos.
Good. These industries need a little shaking up. If anything, the years following the great Internet decline of 2001-02 have suffered from too little investment and experimentation. The post-bubble Internet overreacted to the era of speculation and hype with an excess of prudence. For a while there, everyone would only consider digital initiatives that had immediate revenue streams attached, that had secured pre-launch sponsors. At the time, that seemed oh-so-post-bubble sensible, but in fact many of those same companies are now desperately scrambling to catch up.
The digital revolution faked the media industries out twice. Our first mistake was over-investing (or letting the VCs do it) in an online medium that was ahead of the audience and even the technology. The '90s should have been modest R&D years of the kind radio enjoyed in the late '20s and TV experienced before it exploded in 1948. Instead, we got a fool's gold rush. But the backlash may have been just as costly and wrong-headed. Even as media companies withdrew from the hype, shrank their online staffs, and suffered advertiser disinterest after 2001, the audiences started pouring in. More than a few publishers are reeling from an accelerated adoption curve and a mainstreaming of the Web that they didn't see coming this big this fast.
Sites owned by major media companies (and I mean major) tell me daily that for all the success of the Internet in this past year, they still feel unprepared and ill-equipped to handle the tsunami of consumer demand and advertiser hunger for new products. For instance, print-and-Web-only brands are frantically trying to construct a streaming media strategy. Now that advertisers seem to be spraying the platform with pre-roll buys, and the TV-fueled competitors can quickly repurpose their existing assets into new inventory, the non-video brands don't know how and what to invest here.
Staffing remains a key issue for a number of digital departments. I know of one very large entertainment news entity that complains it is being staffed like it's 2002, even though the ad money and eyeballs are at full 2006 levels. How do you develop the streaming media strategy, audio shows, the RSS piece, the blogs, the syndication and linkage deals if you have just enough people to keep last year's content silos filled?
The good news is that no one, absolutely no one, knows what media consumption patterns will evolve in the next five years. Everyone is betting big (and blind) on how much time will be spent online v. in print v. on portables v. on the couch. So it's time to experiment boldly in a lot of different directions. Some of the most intriguing content and ad products I have seen lately lead me to believe that out of desperation and fear, the media industries finally are moving into the R&D phase we need.
Trade publishers like CMP Media have daily video Webcasts, which are already profitable. Ad Age already has a video podcast, and you might be surprised at some of the other small and large content brands that are turning the handicams and microphones on their editors to experiment with the streaming and portable video form. Expect satellite radio to become a hotbed of curious brand extensions and texts in the coming months.
There is no time for complacency in this environment. There is only time for investment—at long last—of time, creative energy, and yes, money.

In his first international track and field competition, Minnesota sophomore Wally Ellenson captured gold on Sunday in the high jump at the 2013 Pan American Junior Championships in Medellin, Colombia.
The Rice Lake, Wis., All-American cleared 2.16 meters (7-1 ft.) on his first attempt of the day and never looked back as torrential downpours rained down on Alfonso Galvis Duque Stadium.
"It's surreal," Ellenson said. "(Winning a gold medal) was the goal throughout the whole competition, and I'm just thankful I was able to do it."
Ellenson contributed one of 16 gold medals for the U.S. team, which led all competing nations with a total of 39 medals at the 17th Pan American Junior Championships.
