Animal Insulin Ally
I agree wholeheartedly that insulin manufacturers are hurting diabetes care by not keeping animal insulins on the market (My Own Injection 7/96).
At the same time, I do not believe that the clinical literature supports the belief that human insulin's differential actions on the brain lead to an increase in hypoglemic unawareness. I do believe, however, the anecdotal evidence that people switched from animal to human insulins experienced an increase in hypoglycemia unawareness.
In most people, the peak of human insulin action occurs sooner than the peak of animal insulin when you compare the formulations (human v. animal R, human v. animal N, etc.). In addition, there are some people in whom human NPH peaks in four hours. They cannot be well-controlled on two- or three-shot regimens using human insulins, whereas they might have success with the regimen if they switch to pork or beef NPH. Also, for people on multiple daily injections (MDI) human ultralente is not peakless (while beef ultralente is), even when the human U is given in two injections. This can complicate MDI regimens.
So, for reasons of better control in specific patients, we need to bring back beef ultralente and keep the other animal insulins!
I believe people can experience more lows and therefore hypoglycemia unawareness with human insulin after switching from animal insulin. This happens for the straightforward reason that hypoglycemia causes hypoglycemia unawareness. This hypoglycemia may be caused by the better control, coupled with enhanced scrutiny during the switch.
These problems can be prevented by warning patients to do extra tests to determine the optimal timing of meals and snacks when switching from one insulin to the other. I am fairly certain this is not routinely done. This may also explain why controlled clinical studies do not demonstrate meaningful differences in hypoglycemia unawareness during an insulin switch: clinicians in these studies are informing patients about the differences in human versus animal insulins. Better informed patients are able to prevent hypoglycemia and therefore hypoglycemia unawareness.
Until someone recruits a number of people with long-standing diabetes, induces increased levels of hypoglycemia using human insulin one time and animal insulin another time, and then measures couterregulatory hormone responses, autonomic and neurologlycopenic symptom scores and tests cognitive function at all glucose concentrations, we will not have convincing evidence of specific differences created by different insulins.
In the meantime, we have important and proven reasons to keep animal insulins.

Better Control With the Pump?
I am responding to the recent article in DIABETES HEALTH entitled "Patients Experience Less Hypoglycemia When Using a Pump."
Although I feel the study reveals important information relating to HbA1C levels and pump use, I have a problem with the article and the study. Both imply that switching to a pump results in lower incidence of hypoglycemia. The major problem with this study is that there is no control group.
Simply switching to intensive therapy may have resulted in an increase in hypos for many of the subjects as they acclimated themselves to their new regimen. As participants become familiar with the intensive therapy and control improves, the number of hypos may subside, but the result is a greater number of recorded hypos in the first year of intensive therapy. Since these participants undoubtedly used intensive therapy while on the pump, they did not experience a drastic change in therapy. Had there been another group that continued on intensive therapy without the pump, they too might have shown a decrease in hypos during the second year. The fact that HbA1C values did not change when participants switched to the pump further indicates that pump use may not improve BG control over intensive therapy.

DIABETES HEALTH Board member, Bruce Bode, M.D., responds:
Thank you for your comments. This study's control group consisted of patients using multiple injections of insulin for up to ten years before starting on the pump. The average length patients were on multiple injection therapy was two years before going on the pump. There was no significant change in severe hypoglycemic frequency from1 the first year on a pump to years two, three, four and beyond; however, there was a significant drop in hypoglycemic frequency when comparing any year on the pump with any year using multiple injections.

SOURCE Museum of the African Diaspora
Now Offers Two Educational Youth Programs for Girls, Feb. 22 to March 19
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Working in partnership with the Smithsonian Institution, the largest museum and research complex in the world, San Francisco's Museum of the African Diaspora (www.moadsf.org) is pleased to present two new youth programs Behind the Lens: Girls of Color and The Rhythm of Being Brown from February 22 through March 19. The courses are possible thanks to the Will to Adorn program of the Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage which hand selected MoAD because of its effective approach to developing curriculum. Will to Adorn is part of a national movement to empower girls of color by exploring the past, defining the present and celebrating their cultural beauty.
"The 'will to adorn' has been called a primary characteristic of African American expression, grounded in history and visible throughout the African Diaspora. These are powerful programs we are thrilled to offer young girls because of the Smithsonian," said Linda Harrison, Executive Director of MoAD. The events are part of Black History Month activities in February.
Behind the Lens: Girls of Color in the Media is a program for young girls of color to analyze the way the media defines, and sometimes exploits, beauty through words, images and sounds. The girls will explore fashion, music and technology within the African Diaspora to understand the "will to adorn" in a cultural context. Female leaders of all ages will be celebrated for their contributions.
The Rhythm of Being Brown introduces girls of color ages 11 to 13 to women of color who have made history through musical expression. The program focuses on music as a form of folklore, historic preservation and adornment. The musical women include master Djembe (tribal hand drum) players, hip-hop artists, spoken word poets and jazz musicians. Girls will create instruments and artwork designed to bridge cross-cultural and generational gaps.
Visit www.moadsf.org for more information.
About MoAD
Since 2005, the Museum of the African Diaspora showcases the history, art and cultural richness that resulted from the dispersal of Africans throughout the world, with innovative and engaging exhibitions, education and public programs. As a nonprofit organization, the museum's operations and programs are supported by grants and contributions from public and private sources.

It is said that these gardens have the finest collection of exotic and indigenous plants in New Zealand. I do not doubt it!
The gardens are next to the Canterbury Museum and are part of Hagley Park, a huge slice of green within walking distance of downtown Christchurch. The massive trees set in fine lawn areas impressed me. So too did the rose garden, the herb garden, and the tropical plant hot houses. There were shades of London's Kew Gardens here and the comparison did not reflect poorly on Christchurch.
The information centre and garden café are close to a delightful lake almost over-run with ducks. We sat here in the sun for 15 minutes just reflecting on nature and the beautiful weather. Afterwards we walked back towards the city along the banks of the small but cute Avon River. We watched out for people punting on the water but there were none about that day.
The gardens also have a children's playground and the Robert McDougall Art Gallery which offers free guided tours 11am-3pm and is generally open to the public from 10am-5.30pm daily.

At University of Missouri Health Care, General ENT (Otolaryngology) is both a starting point and a destination for patients as issues are identified and treatment strategies are developed.
Many first time patients begin in General Otolaryngology for initial assessment and investigation. Some patients will remain in General Otolaryngology throughout the course of therapy and follow-up, while some patients may be referred to other specialists within our department, as needed, to address specific problems and conditions. For example, a patient with a complex ear problem would be referred to the Otology service, or a patient with a sinus problem may be referred to the Rhinology service.
General Otolaryngology concentrates on both surgical and non-surgical treatment of a wide variety of head and neck disorders in adults and children

SKINS Websites
The research we carry out in the garment development stages allows us to keep pushing the boundaries of technology and compression – leading to the development of dynamic gradient compression, which features in our A400 clothing, for example.
The amount of research published on the functional parameters of SKINS is unrivalled within the sports compression wear industry. So far, ten studies carried out using SKINS have been published in independently peer reviewed medical journals.
Published research of this kind has contributed to SKINS being recommended and endorsed by the Australian Physiotherapy Association and qualifying for registration as a therapeutic device by the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration.

Existing garment pressure measurement devices are predominantly limited to static pressure measurements and not well suited to monitoring dynamic pressure during sports activities. This study illustrates the construction of a wearable dynamic pressure monitoring device (WDPMD) that measures changes in pressure between a subject and garment during activity. Results of accuracy and precision from the study reveal the WDPMD compares favourably to existing static compression devices and was found to be suitable for monitoring changes in pressure dynamically between a subject and garment. The authors conclude the WDPMD had advantages in terms of functional testing, portability, memory, communication and power capacity.

This study examined the effectiveness of lower limb compression as a recovery strategy following exercise-induced muscle damage. Seventeen volunteers were involved in an exercise protocol designed to induce muscle damage. This study indicated that individuals who wore Skins lower limb compression garments for 12 hours following exercise inducing muscle damage, experienced up to 20% less functional muscle decrement and lower perceptions of muscle soreness in comparison with individuals who had a passive recovery.

This study examined the effects of SKINS lower-body compression garments (LBCG) during a one-hour cycling time trial on twelve well-trained cyclists. Results showed increases in muscle oxygenation economy and improvements in cycling economy, suggesting SKINS LBCG may delay the onset of fatigue and prolong optimal performance for well-trained endurance cyclists.

This study investigated the effectiveness of SKINS gradient compression garments in improving physiological variables in a netball-specific circuit. Data recorded from a Global Positioning System (GPS) of nine subjects revealed greater distances were travelled at a faster velocity (3.5ms-1) when wearing SKINS gradient compression garments compared with wearing usual netball attire and a placebo garment. This suggests during a netball game, players may be able to cover more distance during short sprints by wearing SKINS gradient compression garments than without them.

This study investigated whether compression garments could benefit metabolic recovery from eccentric exercise. Following 30 minutes of downhill walking the muscle metabolites of eleven subjects were evaluated at baseline, 1 hour and 48 hours utilising P-magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The results of the study shows that wearing SKINS resulted in an increase in cell membrane turnover (PDE), which helps alter the inflammatory response to muscle damage and accelerates recovery processes.

This study examined the effectiveness of contrast water therapy, SKINS gradient compression garments, low intensity active exercise, and passive recovery on the rate and magnitude of muscle damage recovery, as measured by the enzyme Creatine Kinase. Measurements of 23 elite rugby union players took place before, immediately after, 36 hours after, and 84 hours after competitive rugby matches. The rugby match resulted induced significant increases in player creatine kinase levels. The results also revealed the magnitude of recovery in the passive recovery intervention was significantly worse than in the low intensity active exercise, contrast water therapy, and SKINS gradient compression garment interventions at the 36 and 84 hour time points.The authors concluded that low impact exercise immediately post-competition, wearing gradient compression garments, or carrying out contrast water therapy promotes
better physiological recovery than passive methods in young male athletes.

This study compared the effects of three types of full-body compression garments, including SKINS, on repeat-sprint and throwing performance in cricket players. Ten male cricket players performed randomised exercise sessions with each of the three garments and a control garment. The results revealed significant differences in mean skin temperature, lower
24 hour post exercise creatine kinase values and lower 24 hour post exercise ratings of muscle soreness when wearing compression garments. In conclusion, the authors indicate the potential benefits in utilising gradient compression garments as a thermal insulator in cool conditions, and as a recovery intervention tool after high-intensity exercise to reduce post exercise trauma.

This study investigated the effects of SKINS whole-body compression garments (WBCG) during a 45 minute high-intensity intermittent running protocol, designed to simulate the physical loading of field based team-sports. Results showed wearing SKINS WBCG increased total distance covered during the protocol suggesting that wearing the garments may increase physical performance during field based team-sports. This may be attributed to the increase in muscle oxygenation.

This study expands on previous research and investigated the effectiveness of combining a sports massage immediately after exercise with wearing Skins long tights for 12 hours as a recovery strategy following jumping activity. It was observed that the combined treatment was beneficial in terms of reducing perceived soreness and moderating decrements in functional strength. The addition of the sports massage was not more beneficial than wearing Skins alone in moderating muscle strength loss, but was beneficial in further limiting increases in perceived soreness. It was concluded that if available, the combination of sports massage and Skins compressive clothing after exercise may be positive in terms of perceived soreness, but in terms of functional muscle recovery, it is no more beneficial than wearing Skins compressive clothing alone.

Compression garments have become an essential part of an athlete's recovery strategy so that they feel better and perform stronger on any subsequent training session or competition.
In this study, researchers tested just that – the ability of 14 well trained athletes to perform a 40-km cycling time trial (TT), 24 hours after completing an initial 40-km TT. The protocol was completed twice, once with the athletes wearing SKINS long tights in the recovery period between the two time trials, and once wearing a Nike non-compression base layer.
In a controlled environment, the researchers demonstrated that second 40-km TT performance was improved (faster) when using SKINS graduated compression compared to the Nike non-compression base layer placebo. This improvement resulted in a substantially higher average power output recorded (3%).
The authors concluded that the wearing of graduated compression garments during recovery is likely to be worthwhile.

Business, Government & Public Policy
This is a course about business nonmarket strategy. Nonmarket strategy includes dealing with governments (including federal and state; legislative and executive and courts; administrative agency and traditional branches); with other businesses (e.g. antitrust concerns; IP); NGOs (such as Rainforest Action Network, Greenpeace; Friends of the Earth); ad hoc organizations (community groups; Facebook or Twitter-enabled groups) whether consumers or others. All levels of response are considered (publicity; lobbying; campaign contributions; negotiations; creating and sponsoring balancing groups; suing; supporting strategic charities; reformulating products or services,; etc.). And the responses can be pondered at leisure (standard strategy) or during extreme events (crisis management). Each problem is considered for optimal strategic actions by the business. In this class examination of the "public interest" is as a background consideration. We do not focus front and center on economic efficiency, as in an antitrust class. Instead, these are considered as issues that businesses must confront in various institutional settings. The results of arguments, rooted in various notions of public interest, can be extremely powerful. Thus, businesses must master the techniques and style of analysis of public interest debate. But in this class we will not demand that business care directly about the public interest. Rather, we will assume that businesses care about the public interest because others (customers, regulators, voters) care about the public interest. This course is run like a Business School class. Students are expected to present "cases" (e.g. Toyota and quality control; Mattel and lead paint on toys; Citibank and funding ecologically destructive projects in 3rd world locations) and present a strategic analysis. The remainder of the class will question and critique the presentation. You will be graded in part on in-class participation (30%), in part on presentations of the case studies in the book (70%). Each student will participate in at least 3 in-class presentations during the course of the semester. Each in-class presentation should take approximately 15 to 20 minutes for a one-student presentation, or approximately 30 minutes for a two-student presentation. I will assign a student to present and to help lead the discussion of almost each case we cover. For at least two of your presentations you will be teamed with another student. The two of you will present the case together. We will try to assign a large number of the cases on the second class day. For most cases you will have to do some research that goes beyond the material in the statement of the case in the book. This Syllabus lists three "student presentations" in almost every class. Each student will also turn in a four-page to five-page, single spaced analysis of the strategic issues implicated by the case, and upon which her/his presentation is based. The student will likely focus on one or two aspects of the case we study. The remaining aspects of the case will be done cooperatively, with all of the students in the class contributing. (Thus, each student is expected to read the case material in the book.) The relatively small size should allow an "interactive" style of analysis. We will attempt to relate the case to the more general themes of the chapter in which it is embedded.

"You know I believe that 2013 is the year of the regional bank," said Jim Cramer on Thursday's broadcast.
But next week a watershed event looks to be particularly positive for one of the many banks in the sector.
"I'm talking about SunTrust (TICKER:STI), said Cramer.
The Fed releases stress tests next week and although it will be relevant for the group as a whole, Cramer thinks the results will be particularly meaningful for shareholders of SunTrust.
"Last year, SunTrust was one of just four major banks to fail this very stringent stress test," Cramer explained. That meant unlike many other banks, SunTrust had not been allowed to raise its dividend or buyback shares.
"But I expect that this year, SunTrust will pass the stress test," Cramer said.
And that puts dividend increases and buybacks squarely on the table.
"Also getting a go ahead from the Federal Reserve this time around would be an important symbolic gesture, too, like giving the company a Good Housekeeping Seal Of Approval."
Beyond the stress tests, Cramer said there are other things to like about this stock.
"SunTrust has major exposure to housing, especially in the Southeastern part of the country," Cramer said. "And in the markets where SunTrust has the most share, housing prices have been rebounding dramatically."

Also, he said , "SunTrust has been growing its deposit base, especially lower cost deposits, while trimming its exposure to high-cost deposits. And management, has rolled out a new, aggressive cost-cutting program."
All told, "after we get the stress test results on Thursday of next week, I think investors are going to jump all over SunTrust," Cramer said.
Considering all the catalysts "I think SunTrust presents the best buying opportunity in one of my favorite sectors for 2013. "

Roasted Butterflied Chicken with Cardamom and Yogurt
Author Notes: There is no shortage of spices in this recipe, yet the end result amplifies cardamom. Combined with garlic, ginger and yogurt this blend forms a thick marinade which coats, perfumes and tenderizes the chicken. I like to smear it over a whole butterflied chicken, but it's just as good with breasts or legs. Butterflying ensures quick cooking and even browning. If you can, let the chicken marinate overnight - the longer it sits the better. - TasteFood - TasteFood
Food52 Review: TasteFood turns the everyday roast chicken on its head, simply by bathing it in an intoxicatingly spiced yogurt marinade, butterflying it, and flattening it into a cast iron skillet to roast. Its incomparably crispy skin is brightened by a fragrant rub -- a testament to the benefits of grinding whole spices: you'll get so much more flavor and aroma. If you only have 3 hours to marinate, that'll do, but in our experience, overnight is well worth the wait. Note that, depending on your oven, you might need to cover the chicken with foil for the last 15 minutes of cooking if it's getting too brown. - A&M - A&M
Serves 2-4
- seeds from 6 cardamom pods
- 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
- 2 teaspoons sea salt
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 3 garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 cup whole milk yogurt
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 3-4 pound chicken, butterflied
- Fresh cilantro leaves for garnish
- Grind cardamom seeds and peppercorns in a mortar with pestle to a fine powder. Add salt, coriander, cumin and garlic. and smash the garlic. Add the olive oil to form a paste. Stir in yogurt, ginger and lemon juice.
- Place chicken in a large bowl or pan. Rub yogurt between skin and breasts and thighs. Then smear remaining yogurt over the outside of the chicken, front and back. Refrigerate at least 3 hours or up to 24 hours. Remove chicken from refrigerator 30 minutes before roasting.
- Preheat oven to 425 F. Place chicken breast-side up in a baking pan or cast iron pan. Bake in oven until thoroughly cooked, 45 minutes - 1 hour. Remove and let rest 15 minutes before carving. Serve garnished with cilantro leaves.

This chicken (just used thighs) was outstanding! Preparing it on Sunday so it could marinate overnight, made Monday's dinner so easy to pull together after coming home from work. I served it with Union Square Cafe's Brussels Sprouts mixed with brown rice. http://food52.com/recipes...

Any idea how much ground cardamom I would need. I don't have any pods and live rural. Might have to order them. I do have some already ground though and would love to make this soon!
3 months ago Marci Liroff
I gave up on the pods awhile ago and just use the pre-ground cardamom. I use 1 tsp (the same as the rest of the ingredients) Works great. LOVE THIS DISH! Made it again the other night!

Fantastic. Maybe my favorite food52 recipe, which is saying something because they're all delicious. I'd never roasted a whole chicken before and now I'm wondering what I was waiting for.

Woah. I made this yesterday and it was a life-altering kitchen experience. Beyond delicious. Thanks for sharing and for spurring me on to several "firsts": first time butterflying a chicken, first time using whole cardamom pods, first time roasting a chicken in a skillet...but it certainly won't be the last for any of those. Bravo, Lynda!

AUSTIN -- With thousands of people in Austin for the SXSW Festival, police warn that car thieves will be out in full force, searching for vehicles to break into.
Police say it only takes five minutes for your vehicle to be stolen and only two and a half minutes for your car to be burglarized.
Austin police have released tips on keeping your vehicle safe during SXSW:
- Lock your car and take your keys
- Park in well-lit areas or attended lots
- Don't leave valuables in plain view
- Install protection devices
APD says if drivers took extra time to lock their cars, hide valuable belongings and take their keys, many thefts and burglaries could be prevented.

Customer NO Service – We came to drop off clothes to sell. Right when we walked in, there was no greeting. One of the women working was sick as a dog, coughing and snotty! It was really hot in the store and I felt like I was getting sick! One of the other ladies said it would only take 15 minutes, so we browsed around. When we came up to the front we just stood there? They couldn't tell us if it would be a moment or if they were done. It seemed like we had to do the speaking. I like the store, they have great things for a good price but there just never seems to be good customer service!

On summer days, when the heat rises like cumulus clouds, this T-shirt keeps you cool when you're active and odor-free so you can hang with friends afterward. The lightest of our merino wool baselayer fabrics, Merino 1 Silkweight is made to keep you dry and comfortable in warm to hot conditions. Merino is naturally breathable, regulates body temperature and stretches. It's wonderfully soft and naturally resists odor. Our wool comes from non-mulesed Australian merino sheep. We slow wash it for softness and shrink resistance without the use of chlorine, then blend it with 35% polyester (100% recycled) for durability, dry times and moisture transfer superior to that of 100% merino. The set-in sleeves and offset side seams lie smoothly beneath pack straps. Machine wash cold; machine dry at low temperatures. Fabric is bluesign® approved.
- Merino wool/polyester blend keeps you dry and comfortable even when wet, is stronger and more durable than 100% wool, has a softer hand, naturally controls odor, and wicks perspiration
- 18.9 micron-gauge yarn and jersey-knit construction
- Self-fabric collar band for comfort
- Set-in sleeves
- Side seams offset to eliminate irritation
- Slow-washed without chlorine to prevent shrinkage; bluesign® approved
- Machine-wash cold, tumble dry at low temperature
- 3.5-oz (120-g) 65% chlorine-free merino wool/35% polyester (100% recycled)
- 102 g (3.6 oz)
- Made in Vietnam.
Chlorine-free Wool
Raw, untreated wool has scales that make it itchy and coarse and cause it to shrink, so most wool fabrics are treated with chlorine to reduce the scales. But chlorine is a pervasive pollutant that's especially harmful to organisms living in water and soil. We remove the scales from our merino wool fibers using a unique chlorine-free process that's bluesign® approved.

A wonderful hotel
Advantages: Very welcoming, clean, lovely view
Disadvantages: no bath in our room.
...When it was beautiful weather last summer a friend of mine asked if I would like a night away with her as a treat. This really was a lovely one off and we decided it would be lovely to go to the seaside. We opted for Llandudno as we have both travelled here a few times and have happy memories. We also thought that there would be plenty of sights for us to see. We chose this hotel after reading...

Review of The Winchmore Hotel Llandudno
Hotel Ternopil
Advantages: Clean, basic, reasonably priced, well-situated
Disadvantages: Could be better decor in rooms, buffet a bit hit and miss
...When our coach pulled up outside the back of Hotel Ternopil, I saw a large impersonal hotel, which looked like it had no charm or individuality, a throwback from the Soviet era. My first impressions were not entirely inaccurate, but the hotel is well situated, by Lake Ternopil, and has had a good re-vamp.
Whilst the outside of the hotel, which is in good condition, does look unappealing...

Review of Hotel Ternopil
Great hotel
Advantages: Clean and spacious rooms, friendly staff, good food, relatively cheap
Disadvantages: Car park could be bigger
.... With Derry being the 2013 UK City of Culture, the prices were unreasonable (over £70 for a basic room in a Travelodge?), so when I saw this hotel offering bed and breakfast for £60 for the room, I thought it seemed reasonable. What swung it for me though was that this hotel had an 8.9 star rating on TripAdvisor, which was higher than some of what I would have considered the top hotels in the area.

Scarlets midfielder Gareth Maule admits Saturday's clash with Ulster at Parc y Scarlets is among the most crucial of their season so far.
Despite a brace of fine performances in the Heineken Cup, the Scarlets' domestic form in the RaboDirect Pro12 has been hit and miss.
Maule knows both sides will be shorn of internationals preparing for the November Tests, but doesn't believe that will detract from the significance of the match.
"This is a very important phase in our season considering where we are in our league campaign," Maule told the South Wales Evening Post.
"From the outside there is not going to be as much emphasis on this game as opposed to Europe, but the reality is, it is one of the most important games of our season.
"We managed to pick things up in the Heineken Cup after some indifferent form in the league, but as soon as we are back in the Rabo it is disappointing again.
"We have only got ourselves to blame. It is not down to a lack of effort, the simple fact is, it is easy to go to London and take on an English team and turn your season around, you need to have the same mindset to go to places like Zebre, who will scrap for everything.
"We need to be a top-four team and we need to be able to go to these places and dispatch them, ugly or not."
The centre has been largely restricted to substitute appearances thanks to the form of Wales duo, Jonathan Davies and Scott Williams, but is confident the new faces in the backline are up to the task.
"It is going go to be tough, but everything we do in training is integrated so everyone knows their roles," added Maule.
"We have tried to up the intensity in training and have to hit the ground running against Ulster. There can't be any rustiness.
"We need to get this show on the road.
"Ulster will have a slight advantage because while they always seem to have a lot of representation in the Irish squad and even with injuries, they have names like Pienaar and Nick Williams in there who would walk into any team.
"They are a confident group of players and have had a good run in Europe again, but if we are on our game, there is no reason why we can't kickstart our season.
"There are no excuses, we are at home in front of our own fans and it is a simple case of having to go out there, perform and get a victory.
"We need to deliver and get something out of this game."

Sets a threshold for the minimum and maximum time that a client waits before requesting retransmission of a missing message.
The syntax of this parameter in the DB_CONFIG file is a
single line with the string
rep_set_request, one or more whitespace
characters, and the request time specified in two parts:
the min and the max. Specifically, if the client detects a
gap in the sequence of incoming log records or database
pages, Berkeley DB will wait for at least min microseconds
before requesting retransmission of the missing record.
Berkeley DB will double that amount before requesting the
same missing record again, and so on, up to a maximum
threshold of max microseconds.
By default the minimum is 40000 and the maximum is 1280000 (1.28 seconds). These defaults are fairly arbitrary and the application likely needs to adjust these. The values should be based on expected load and performance characteristics of the master and client host platforms and transport infrastructure as well as round-trip message time.
For more information, see DbEnv::rep_set_request().

OzART release – automated, easy, effective accessibility reporting
AccessibilityOz is proud to announce the release of OzART — an innovative accessibility reporting tool.
OzART simplifies the task of making your site accessible because it searches and reports defects in categories e.g. images, page titles, content and headings. This makes it easy for your team to work through fixing the defects, logically and systematically.
What is Accessibility?
Website accessibility is the ability for a person with a disability to understand and use a website – without being labelled as 'disabled'.
Did you know:
- The Disability Discrimination Act (2009) requires all organisations and individuals to make their websites, intranets and ICT web applications accessible.
- Government websites need to be WCAG2 Level AA accessible by December 2014.
- Business and corporate websites need to be WCAG2 Level AA accessible by December 2013.
How we can help you
At AccessibilityOz, we're passionate about helping our clients identify current accessibility issues and plan for an accessible future online.
Do you need help to:
- Audit your website to work out if your website is accessible and identify the problems.
- Train your staff – both managers and content authors.
- Evaluate accessibility during your site build – do it now and save money later.
- Write your Website Disability Action Plan – outline your website accessibility plans for the future
- Have your questions answered with accessibility consultation or 10 helpdesk hours.

These are excellent. I'm not really into processed/prepared products, but the Tyson brand chicken strips are great. I did pick through a bit to get rid of a little skin, but very good product. I would recommend wrapping the sandwiches in waxed paper and eating them that way to keep from falling apart.

How about an sms/call blocker.
Then make a blacklist of telephone numbers you dont want to recieve anything from
-For the phone part, just have it automaticly dump to voicemail.
-For the SMS if its possible to remove the message before 'recieving' it so it doesnt use up one of your SMSs from a bundle, or if you have unlimited go ahead and recieve it, then autodelete if its a blacklisted #.
