4 steps to taming your career anxietyFebruary 8, 2013: 5:00 AM ET
Worrying about the future, in this economy, just makes you normal. But there are ways to get a grip on fear, instead of letting it control you.
FORTUNE -- Dear Annie: I can't be the only one with this problem, so I'm curious to hear what you and your readers think about it. Right now, everything at work is going very well. I love my job, and I had an outstanding year-end performance review just a few weeks ago. But I still can't shake an irrational feeling of impending doom. It's probably because, before I got this job, I was laid off twice, once in late 2008, and again at a different company in 2010.
In both cases, my performance evaluations were great (just like now), so I guess I'm afraid it's going to happen again. I've tried just brushing the fear aside and telling myself to stop worrying, but I'm having trouble sleeping, which is starting to affect my concentration during the day. Do you have any suggestions? — Nervous in New York
Dear Nervous: You're right to suppose that you're far from alone with this. (It's no coincidence that sales of anti-anxiety drugs Xanax and Zoloft have soared to new heights in the past couple of years.) David Kaiser, a career counselor who runs Chicago executive coaching firm Dark Matter Consulting, takes issue with your description of your sense of dread as "irrational." "Considering that you lost two jobs in two years, it's normal to be worried," he says. "It's completely understandable."

Deborah Brown-Volkman, head of career coaching firm Surpass Your Dreams, Inc., in East Moriches, N.Y., agrees: "Career fear is normal. You wouldn't be human without it." She adds that many of her clients share your anxiety, but "they tell me they shouldn't be afraid. I ask them why they would put so much pressure on themselves -- to expect something that unrealistic. It's much better to expect fear, so you can learn how to manage it."
Of course, it doesn't help that the job market is still so wobbly, with unemployment stuck at 7.9%. Hiring is slowly picking up, but the 157,000 new jobs created last month were accompanied by a steady drumbeat of layoff announcements -- 24% more of them in January than in December, according to outplacement firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas.
Still, the trouble with letting even a well-founded worry get the best of you is that it can lead to a self-fulfilling prophecy: Lose enough sleep and suffer enough sweaty palms over time, and you'll start making mistakes that could lead to the very outcome you're dreading. Before things get that far, try these four steps:
1. Articulate exactly what you fear. "What you resist persists, so stop resisting," suggests Brown-Volkman. "What are you afraid of? Write it down. Say it out loud." Sounds simple, but, says David Kaiser, "Often just naming a fear makes it easier to deal with, because putting words to it gives it a shape" -- turning an amorphous black cloud of worry into a specific problem (e.g., what happens if you lose this job?) so you can take practical action.
2. Make a Plan B. "Have a backup plan for what you'll do if you do get laid off again," Kaiser says. "Keep up your networking, and look around for stable or growing companies, or even other parts of your current company where there might be opportunities for you."
MORE: This year's biggest economic losers
The fact that you've survived two layoffs already could actually be an advantage, if you choose to see it that way, he adds: "You've landed on your feet twice before, so start doing what worked for you then." You may never need your Plan B, but just knowing it's there could go a long way toward stemming anxiety.
3. Take good care of your health. "Exercise often helps," says Kaiser. "Anxiety comes from your head, but it affects your whole body. So get out of your head as much as possible. Stand up and move." He also recommends stress relievers like meditation -- "even just for 15 minutes on the train" -- and spending more time with friends and family. "Connecting with people who care about you is calming."
4. Start right now. "If you wait to be fear-free" before tackling the foregoing, Brown-Volkman says, "you will be waiting for a long time. Now is the moment to decide what control your fear will have over you -- whether it will paralyze you or motivate you. Deciding is important, because it's the step where you take your power back."
Good luck.

HUDSON Jeans:Ten-year anniversary campaign starring Georgia May Jagger
For its 10th Anniversary, HUDSON has chosen to celebrate the essence and spirit of Cabaret in their Fall 2012 advertising campaign. Shooting the campaign in Paris, the birthplace of Cabaret, HUDSON Jeans embraces the spirit of a place to exercise individuality; where onlookers could go against the rules of society without judgment or worry. The "HUDSON CABARET" captures the brand's mission in print and on film, and 10 years of creating a community where every citizen is a connoisseur of life, moving forward fearlessly with passion and purpose – living life to the edge.
Beginning with a teaser video in early July, the HUDSON Cabaret will feature 4 video releases showcasing four statement styles of denim to be launched with our Canadian retails partners and activation on a global scale. A print advertisement will accompany each video release and retail activation. Our national Canadian retail partner is Holt Renfrew among other high-end denim boutiques.
Following the teaser video, the first style launch will be around the LEELOO, a color blocked jean animated in a fast paced modern day dance. In August, hip-hop artist/beat-boxer TEZ will introduce the "Juliette" skinny jean, of which the ankle zippers will serve as the musical accompaniment of choice layered over his compelling beats made entirely with his mouth. For the third style, the New York electronic dream pop band, Au Revoir Simone, will help Georgia May Jagger pay a poetic tribute to the beauty of the campaign collection's "Art Deco" styles. The "Art Deco" styles, inspired by Faberge eggs, patterned wall paper and diamond bracelets, will launch across Canada in September.
Finally HUDSON will launch the "10th Anniversary" bundle with French duet, Daphne Burki and Gunther Love, and Georgia May Jagger. Daphne is a famous TV personality in France and he's a reigning world champion of "Air Guitar". They pay tribute to the 10th birthday of the brand with a comedic battle in song. Directly commemorating the brand's tenth anniversary, the package of 4 styles will include the "Abstract Flag" printed skinny – a meld of the Union Jack and American flag paying homage to the brand's "Born in California" but "Rooted in London" DNA.

"Well, it's all right
Riding around in the breeze.
Well, it's all right
If you live the life you please."
– "End of the Line" by the Traveling Wilburys
Cecily gave us the recently reissued Traveling Wilburys CD for our trip to
"End of the Line," the last song on the original 1988 album, is a gentle, reaffirming folk-rocker with verses like: "Don't have to be ashamed of the car I drive (at the end of the line)/I'm just glad to be here, happy to be alive (at the end of the line)…I'm satisfied."
But another meaning came to us one day as I was turning right off
Ellen and I realized that
It's also the end of the line for the oil age. An exploding nebula of asphalt and concrete, of shiny, shameless, superexpensive new cars: Beamers, Audis, Mercedes, Porches, Lexi – you name it. In
It is the end of the line (or the beginning, if you are from
Can't go no further, or faster; this place is the final destination for American consumer culture. As it was the end of patience, apparently, for Jaguar Woman stuck behind some rube from
I lived for 10 years, from age eight to 18, in a house just back from the sea cliff in Corona del Mar. Our house was one of three brown-shingled bungalows built on the bluff in the first years of the 20th century. Gradually,
E and I drove by the old place on our way through and were re-reminded about end-of-the-line real estate. My parents stretched to buy our house for $30,000 (I think it was) in 1956. Nowadays, someone said, the lot alone is worth more than $5 million. A house down the road sold recently for $20 million. I'm sorry to say the folks sold out in the 1970s before the big dollars swept in.
Our place looked like a shack next to its neighbors. The current owners, who for years parked a Corvette with flat tires in the driveway, have held out for some reason. On one side sits a faux-Italian palace, lot-line to lot-line, back alley to sidewalk, as if yards were for children and Ocean Boulevard were a canal in Venice.
The other side is even grosser. Someone razed dear old Mrs. Burton's redwood bower (and her eucalyptus trees and her gardens) and replaced them with a wall-to-wall, green-glass fishbowl, 30 feet high and 100 feet across the front so that, presumably, we can all appreciate the quality of the stemware sitting on the grand piano. These things seem to be important at the end of the line.
The one thing that hadn't changed was the ocean. Dad and I stood in the waves at the beach below the brown house, and although at 83 he decided against body surfing, we let the warm water support us and talked and stared at a timeless blue horizon. It was paradise. It was the reason everyone wants to be here.
E and I timed our SoCal exit for midday so that we'd have the least freeway traffic. Although my mother warned us that something called the "lunch crunch" now had to be dealt with. It was a Friday, and we were doing well riding the 133 to the 5, the 5 to the 55, the 55 to the 91, the 91 to the 15. Traffic was not what a Coloradoan would consider light—the whole swirling mass of steel and glass hurtling along at 70 mph plus – but it wasn't bad.
North of San Bernardino,
Once we got past the wreck – a mini van with flames shooting out of its hood – we punched up the Traveling Wilburys and "End of the Line."
"Maybe somewhere down the road a ways (at the end of the line)
You'll think of me and wonder where I am these days (at the end of the line)
Maybe down the road when somebody plays
'Purple Haze.'"

Why Susan Rice withdrew her name as secretary of State (+video)
Republican senators had vowed a fight if Obama nominated Susan Rice to be his next secretary of State. Their opposition centered on her erroneous public statements about the attack on the US consulate in Benghazi, Libya.
Ambassador Susan Rice stunned Washington Thursday afternoon by withdrawing her name for consideration as secretary of State. President Obama accepted her decision.Skip to next paragraph
Subscribe Today to the Monitor
Currently the US envoy to the United Nations, Ambassador Rice was widely seen as a top prospect to replace Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, who is retiring at the end of Mr. Obama's first term. But her star was tarnished in September after she made erroneous statements on TV about the attack on the US consulate in Benghazi, Libya, which took the lives of four Americans, including Ambassador Christopher Stevens.
High-profile Republicans, including Sen. John McCain of Arizona, had promised a major fight if Obama had sent her name to the Senate for confirmation. By accepting her withdrawal, Obama has avoided expending political capital in trying to get her through the Senate, and also avoided refocusing the national spotlight on what went wrong in Benghazi.
"If nominated, I am now convinced that the confirmation process would be lengthy, disruptive, and costly – to you and to our most pressing national and international priorities," Rice wrote in a letter to Obama and obtained by NBC News. "That trade-off is simply not worth it to our country…. Therefore, I respectfully request that you no longer consider my candidacy at this time."
The White House released a statement from the president indicating that he had spoken with Rice, and accepted her request to remove her name from consideration. He lauded her service as "an extraordinarily capable, patriotic, and passionate public servant."
"While I deeply regret the unfair and misleading attacks on Susan Rice in recent weeks, her decision demonstrates the strength of her character, and an admirable commitment to rise above the politics of the moment to put our national interests first," the president's statement said.
At issue were her statements over what had precipitated the attack on the US mission in Benghazi. In a round of Sunday morning TV interviews five days after the Sept. 11 incident, she said it had resulted from spontaneous protests over an anti-Islamic video and was not a coordinated terrorist attack, possibly linked to Al Qaeda affiliates.

It's hard to be objective about the comfort of any footwear, because there are so many factors involved, starting with the shape and size of one's feet and progressing through more subtle differences such as centre of gravity and even agility. Doubtless some people would feel perfectly comfortable completing some of the routes that I trialled these boots on wearing trekking shoes (and I can think of one person in particular who operates quite happily in short wellies for pretty well any mountain activity! - not recommended though). I would suggest that the following wish list would be desirable for most mere mortals though:
In order to help people choose the appropriate match of boot and crampon for mountaineering activities, comparison charts are now available, using B0-B3 for boot characteristics and C1 to C3 for crampons. (For further information see this excellent UKC Gear article Crampons - Everything You Need To Know.
The Scarpa Cristallo, La Sportiva Trango Alp and Boreal Triglav are all in the B1 to B2 boot categories, have fairly stiff soles and good ankle support. These types of boots will take strap-on crampons and in the case of the B2 boots there is a projecting heel bail in order to accept C2 crampons with a heel clip. Personally I'm a fan of this style of crampon fitting (i.e. a strap at the front and a clip at the back and have found it perfectly adequate on steep ice and hard mixed climbing, so this can be a pretty versatile combination).
For comfortable walking with the occasional scramble I tried a pair of B1 boots: the Scarpa Cristallo. The other two pairs both fit within the B2 category: the Trango Alp and the Boreal Triglav.
All three boots claim to be UK size 9 but they vary considerably in both length and shape. The European sizes are even more confusing because they range from 42 (Cristallo) through 43 (Trango Alp) to 43.25 (Triglav). When held sole to sole, these sizings make sense: the Triglavs are indeed the longest. But, because of the heel padding and narrow profile, these boots felt the smallest for my feet. The only pair that felt comfortable for me with a thick pair of walking socks were the Trango Alps; the others were tested with very thin socks; in future I would definitely go up a size for either of these. In case you're wondering I have fairly wide feet and my big toes project 5cms beyond the little ones.
"Don't select boots through the internet, it will only end in tears! Try on several types and give them as good an airing as possible."
This leads me to reiterate a point that you'll have heard before, but ignore it at your peril! Don't select boots through the internet, it will only end in tears! Try on several types and give them as good an airing as possible. If they feel snug in the shop they will feel too tight once you've walked a few kilometres, so take some padded hiking socks along and make sure the boots fit properly. And sure, you could try them on and then leave the hapless assistants to stew while you nip round the corner and order them through a Smart phone, but you won't get the follow-up service and the shops need your custom!
Scarpa Cristallo (B1) RRP £220
The Cristallo is claimed to replace a succession of lightweight suede boots that were known variously as the el Cap, the Mescalito, and latterly the Pro Ascent. I loved my old el Caps, which proved perfect for big walls with mixed aid and free climbing, but the soles have now virtually worn away after many days of hard work, including a week's guiding in Yosemite several years ago. So I was looking forward to trying the successor...

|Links to HEAD:
|(view) (annotate)
|Links to UNICODE-BASE:
|(view) (annotate)
|Sticky Tag:
Change calls to obsolete define-setf-method to define-setf-expander.
Change most PROCLAIMs to DECLAIMs.
Flush unnecessary function proclaim's some of which had incorrect return values, and replace them with function argument declarations which the compiler move carefully checks.
For support of compiler reentry and thread safety, avoid the use of global tables and counters for the continuation, TN, and label debug IDs; rather dynamically bind new tables and counters in the functions compiler and sub-compiler-file with the aid of the new macro with-debug-counters.
This set of changes removes nearly all references to the dylan language. It is a benign revision as no structures are redefined. At some later point the definitions in compiler/objdef could be removed, perhaps in sync with some other type change.
Fix headed boilerplate.
Fix compiler warnings.
Added a hack to keep the compiler from coalescing constants when compiling dylan code, because the dylan test suite modifies manifest constants. This is gross.
Moved various run-time functions it ir1until.
Changed lexenv-find default test to EQ
Moved condition handler binding into with-ir1-namespace, since that is used in all the right places.
Added with-compiler-error-handlers.
Add support for :when DEFTRANSFORM argument.
Changed def-source-transform to work with setf functions also.
Deleted binding of *FAILED-OPTIMIZATIONS* (now component-failed-optimizations
Changed the DEFPRINTER expansion to error if *PRINT-READABLY* is set and to print an atomic version of the structure (just its type and address) if the depth is below *PRINT-LEVEL*. Also, use DESCEND-INTO in the non-pretty case to parallel the DESCEND-INTO inside the PPRINT-LOGICAL-BLOCK in the pretty case.
Added (DECLARE (IGNORABLE STREAM)) to the guts of the defprinter expansion to supress bound-but-not-used warnings.
More defprinter tweeks. Added a :important keyword to deftransform that indicates that failure notes should be printed even when speed==brevity.
In DEFPRINTER, ignore the depth since it is no longer used.
Flushed uses of XP: because the various pretty printer symbols are now exported from LISP.
Changed the :EVAL-NAME option to DEFTRANSFORM to also eval the argument and result type specs.
Added support for DEFTRANSFORM doc strings.
Deleted setf bootstrap hack.
New file header with RCS stuff.
Removed some #-new-compiler conditionals in eval-when compile's, since we really need them to bootstrap, even under the new compiler.
Added new EVAL-NAME keyword to DEFTRANSFORM to allow simple use of closures for making similar transforms.
Added :RESTART-P key to DO-NODES that provides for robust iteration in the presence of arbitrary destructive modifications of the block. Fixed a broken declaration.
Fixed uses of parse-defmacro re changes to it. The error-fun now takes the same kind of arguments as error, and can possibly be called with a condition object instead of a format-string.
Changed DO-NODES to work even when multiple next nodes are deleted. Added some uses of REQUIRED-ARGUMENT in slot defaults.
Fixed name of primitive-arg-count-error. Changed uses of parse-defmacro to supply something more reasonable for error-kind.
Changed def-ir1-translator, def-source-transform, and def-primitive-translator to use the new error-fun keyword to parse-defmacro instead of macroletting error.
Changed uses of lisp::parse-defmacro to conform to what Blaine's parse-defmacro expects now that it's installed.
Rewrote the defprinter stuff to use XP for pretty printing.
Fixed ftype proclaim of defprinter-prin[1c] to allow nil for the indent.
Added exports for the useful macros. Removed undefined-value, 'cause it's in extensions.
Fixed the :POLICY keyword to DEFTRANSFORM.
Made DEF-IR1-TRANSLATOR set the SYMBOL-FUNCTION of special forms to a bogus function
Added *FAILED-OPTIMIZATIONS* to the hashtables we create in WITH-IR1-NAMESPACE so that the compiler will be re-entrant.
Moved parse-lambda-list from macros.lisp to proclaim.lisp.
Lexenv changes, added support for (SETF xxx-ATTRIBUTEP) as a way to set a bunch of attributes at once.
Fixed defprinter stuff to not lose when the charpos can't be determined.
Fixed some broken declarations.
Fixed broken arg type declaration for FINISH-DEFPRINTER
Similarly disabled all the other EVAL-WHEN COMPILEs when under the new compiler.
Made the definition of UNDEFINED-VALUE not be compile-time evaluated in the new compiler. Installing an interpreted definition was breaking the compiler/eval, presumably because some calls aren't inline expanded yet.

New Jersey Beaches
New Jersey has 127 miles of coastline along the Atlantic Ocean, as well as
shorelands bordering New York/New Jersey Harbor, Raritan Bay and
Delaware Bay. New Jersey's Atlantic Ocean beaches is home to some of the most beautiful and popular beaches in the USA and abroad. Sixty-two percent of the State's $38 billion tourism dollars in 2008 were spent at the Jersey Shore. New Jersey's fisheries and shellfisheries generated $168 million dollars in revenue from landings and employed over 40,000 people in 2008 alone. Healthy marine
ecosystems are necessary to sustain coastal tourism—including recreational
boating and beach visitation—one of the largest industries in the state.
Establishing a balance among current uses and the needs of future generations
is an important step towards ensuring the sustainability of New Jersey's beaches and ocean

Who is Roger Tory Peterson?
For more than 65 years, Peterson Field Guides have set the standard by which other field guides are measured. Comprehensive and authoritative, they are essential additions to any naturalist's bookshelf or backpack. Roger Tory Peterson, one of the world's greatest naturalists, spent his life studying, painting, and photographing birds. The Peterson Identification System has been called the greatest invention since binoculars, and the Peterson Field Guide Series is credited with helping to set the stage for the environmental movement. Peterson died in 1996.

As to the rout that is made about people who are ruined by extravagance, it is no matter to the nation that some individuals suffer. When so much general productive exertion is the consequence of luxury, the nation does not care though there are debtors; nay, they would not care though their creditors were there too.

Los Angeles Times (02.19.13)
Anthem Blue Cross, California's largest for-profit health insurer, has withdrawn its request for some of its policyholders to buy their prescription drugs from a specific mail-order pharmacy. In November, the company had notified policyholders of the new requirement, which applied to certain medications used to treat major illnesses. The company stated that this procedure would help keep costs down. However, the requirement was challenged based on California's Unruh Civil Rights Act, which specifies that all people must be treated equally.
California's Attorney General Kamala D. Harris commented that any rule forcing some people to buy drugs from one drugstore, but allowing others to shop elsewhere could be a violation of the law. Lynda Gledhill, as spokesperson for the attorney general, stated that an individual cannot be discriminated against because of a medical condition. She said that if patients are being required to get prescriptions from a certain drugstore because of their illness, that is likely illegal.
Anthem is sending letters to its policyholders taking specialty medications to inform them that the company no longer requires them to purchase their medications from the specific online pharmacy beginning March 1. The company stated that because of the feedback from its members, it is evaluating that input and has now eliminated the March deadline for the specialty medications. Anthem is working to better present the benefits of the mail-order pharmacy program and will communicate its details before making any changes to the existing program.

Sturdy design to support and nurture your baby´s first steps.
Features a detachable learning centre packed with activities. Shapes and light-up musical keys introduce letters, words, numbers, animals, colours, sung songs and melodies. Moving butterfly, discs and rollers develop manipulative skills plus a rattling role-play phone. Textured wheels, easy grip handle and durable design ensure baby gets ample support for taking those first steps. Assembles very easily and can be stored away in small spaces.
I would recommend this product to every mum. It is very colourful and easy to use. Keeps baby entertained.
My twins love the activity board as well as the walker itself.
My 9 month old baby loves this walker. She loves the activity centre which is detachable and it's great for encouraging walking.
I bought this for a gift for my friends little boy and she absolutely loved it. After searching online for all baby first step walkers I found kiddicare to have the cheapest one and it is of good quality too. I also bought few other toys along with it which was in sale at a great value and of good quality too. This was my first time purchasing from kiddicare and I must say im impressed with the delivery service it was fast and efficient even though it was free delivery. I will be using kiddicare from now on to purchase for my little one that is on its way in July and I sure will be purchasing this product too if its still in for the same price :)
My 9mth old started pushing it around & playing with the toys on it as soon as he got it. I got a bit confused when assembling it but that's probably due to baby brain :oD

Have you ever had the urge to throw a juicy, squishy tomato right in your friend's face? Well if you take them to Spain for the last Wednesday in August you can do just that and not get in to trouble for it... just make sure you're in Buñol when you throw it, because you won't get away with doing it in Barcelona or Madrid.
La Tomatina takes place annually on the last Wednesday in August every year and this popular Spanish event is preceded by a great festival with lots of music, parades and fireworks. The big event is on the Wednesday where tons of over ripe tomatoes are loaded onto the streets of this Spanish town close to Valencia. Once the tomatoes are in place everyone just lets loose and this much loved food fight begins.
No one is completely sure on exactly how this event first began, with one theory suggesting that some locals set upon their politicians with the red fruit when they were unhappy with some new laws. Whatever its origins, the festival attracts thousands of revellers from all over the world who all want to take part.
There are just a few things to remember before the fight begins...
- Arrive a bit early to experience all of the event and get in a good tomato grabbing position.
- Don't throw tomatoes until the ham has been captured. Do stop throwing once you hear the end of the fight.
- Wear old clothes as they will stain and don't bring anything valuable to the big event.
- Consider wearing goggles to protect your eyes.
- Make sure your tomatoes are soft as throwing hard ones is just plain mean.

9 Questions from the Community
this come with the base
I'm interesting in buying the American standard shower with 3 sides of wall plus one side shower door. Is it possible please ?
does 3232Y.1.st shower base can get 3 sides wall to match please ?
We don't need a new base but we need new shower walls will these walls work with any 32 inch base?
will this work if our plumbing is on the left side? If not, what do you have that will work? We need all 3 walls.
we don't need a base but we need a new shower is it possible to install this shower on the base of ceramic 32X32?
A. The American Standard 3232Y1.SW SW Shower Wall Set 32"x32" will work on your ceramic base. Remember that these units don't technically mount to the base but rather they mount to the studs in your wall. The joint between the shower wall and your base will require caulk. When caulking this joint, push the bottom of the shower wall against your wall firmly, then pull it out again for just a minute to let some of the vapors from the caulk escape, then push it back in and smooth it. I've found that if you do this it keeps the caulk from bulging or bubbling due to trapped vapors.
What is the base?
so this material can be drilled for fausets and shower tube
Does this shower stall come with a door?

This article discusses the health effects that may occur from accidentally or intentionally eating or swallowing soap.
This is for information only and not for use in the treatment or management of an actual poison exposure. If you have an exposure, you should call your local emergency number (such as 911) or the National Poison Control Center at 1-800-222-1222.
Soap - swallowing; Soap ingestion
Most bar soaps are considered harmless (nontoxic).
Immediately give the person water or milk, unless instructed otherwise by a health care provider. Do NOT give water or milk if the patient is having symptoms (such as vomiting, convulsions, or a decreased level of alertness) that make it hard to swallow.
Do NOT make a person throw up unless told to do so by poison control or a health care professional.
Determine the following information:
The National Poison Control Center (1-800-222-1222) can be called from anywhere in the United States. This national hotline number will let you talk to experts in poisoning. They will give you further instructions.
This is a free and confidential service. All local poison control centers in the United States use this national number. You should call if you have any questions about poisoning or poison prevention. It does NOT need to be an emergency. You can call for any reason, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
See: Poison control center - emergency number
The health care provider will measure and monitor your vital signs, including temperature, pulse, breathing rate, and blood pressure. Symptoms will be treated as appropriate.
Note: You may not need to go to the emergency room.
How well you do depends on the amount of poison swallowed and how quickly treatment is received.
Patients usually recover.

Local homeless shelters prepare for the possibility of a tuberculosis outbreakFargo, ND (WDAY TV) -- Homeless shelters say they're prepared for the worst.
By: Becky Parker, WDAY
Fargo, ND (WDAY TV) -- Homeless shelters say they're prepared for the worst.
There are 8 confirmed cases of T-B in Grand Forks County, all starting in the area's homeless population. Shelters say curbing the spread of the disease can be difficult, so they're forced to have precautions in place.
Many homeless people get their only health care from an emergency room, that's why area shelters try to provide preventative care and a clean environment.
Jane Alexander, executive director of Churches United in Moorhead, says tuberculosis has started to come back in some bigger city shelters.
Jane Alexander: "Among people who are in crisis and living just basic survival, they are going to probably not be getting medical care regularly so they may actually carry TB for awhile and spread it for awhile."
That's why they are vigilant in keeping a clean environment.
Staff disinfect door handles twice a day, and keep dorm rooms spacious, so everyone isn't breathing the same air.
Over at the Dorothy Day House, where ten men stay at a time, routine cleaning and hand washing are high priorities.
Sonja Ellner/Dorothy Day Director: "We also require mandatory TB testing for the men that stay here. And we have a nurse that comes in on a weekly basis and she can help administer that."
Other shelters in the area have similar standards.
Family Health Care provides outreach nurses to area shelters for things like vaccinations or routine checkups.
Kim Seeb/program director: "We're developing relationships with them, we're getting them in to see primary care providers, so we can answer questions about managing diabetes, about heart disease, high blood pressure."
No cases of TB have been reported in the FM area, but shelters remain extra cautious. More than 250 people in Grand Forks County have been tested for TB since the first three cases were confirmed last month.

Training via DVD
Through the use of video I've had the opportunity to train under some of the finest shooting, martial arts and police suspect control instructors in the country over the last 30 years.
- Officer's killed by gunfire are up 30%
- Agencies throughout the country are being forced to lay-off, reducing officer ranks on the streets
- Training budgets are being slashed with all but essential training programs cancelled
Just last week the National Law Enforcement Memorial Fund (NLEOMF) released it mid-year findings for 2011. Craig Floyd from the NLEOMF was quoted, "The numbers suggest that recent cuts in local law enforcement training and equipment budgets because of the economy may be contributing to the increase in deaths. When you slash those budgets time and time again, you are putting communities at risk and officers at risk." (USA Today)
Makes sense to me; having been in enough situations to know that you will do as you have trained to do, I understand the antithesis paradigm that if you don't train your performance may be dismal at best.
Of course another source was cited in the article stating, "...it was "too early" to conclude that budget reductions were linked to the rising deaths." I'll let you decide if you think slashing training budgets and time contributes to officer injuries or deaths but my LE logic certainly makes me think so.
So, how do you train when your agency has cut its budget? On your own that's how.
Video Training
I've long been a proponent of video training. Through the use of video I've had the opportunity to train under some of the finest shooting, martial arts and police suspect control instructors in the country over the last 30 years. Some of these instructors I've had the good fortune to train with "hands-on" but most my budget prevented the travel costs or tuition price. With agencies and officers tightening their budget belts even more tighter, video training makes more sense than ever.
In that light Panteao Productions has released a new line of DVD and streaming video available online with their Make Ready series. Panteao's Fernando Coelho has recruited top talent in the firearms training field and recorded these instructors on high quality produced DVD's. Names like Bill Rogers, Paul Howe, "Super" Dave Harrington are now available to teach you in the comfort of your own home. According to Fernando Coelho the idea was to make these top talents instruction available in light of the current budget crunch, "The cost of traveling to take these classes form the instructors is pretty prohibitive. Especially on a police officer's salary. It's my hope that these videos, while not replacing actual hands on training and trigger time, will give officer something that will help them." That's a great concept and is furthered by a unique offer. You can pay a $17.95 monthly subscription to view the training tapes via streaming video. That gives you access to the entire Panteao library 24 hours a day. You can pay an annual fee of $150 for streaming access for one year or you can choose to buy the DVD's. One DVD costs $49.99, two DVD's drops the rate to $42.49, three or more lowers the cost to $39.99.
Reviewing some of the DVD's I've found excellent material and knowledge imparted by such trainers as former F.B.I. Agent turned shooting school owner instructor Bill Rogers. Rogers ability to shoot fast and accurately is amazing as is his ability to convey that knowledge to you. Former military special forces operator Paul Howe owner of CSAT (Combat Shooting and Tactics) has done two tapes with Panteao, Tac Rifle Operator and Tac Pistol Operator both training DVD's were well produced and provided a wealth of knowledge. Dave Harrington is a name I've heard of for a number of years. "Super Dave" as he is known in the training circuit is a retired senior weapons instructor from the John F. Kennedy Special Warfare School at Ft. Bragg. Harrington's 360 Degree Pistol Skill two part video series included some drills that were new for me in the quest to master the pistol with one hand alone or both hands.

Nobody has evidence of anything regarding this projector except in Europe and that is the whole point. I chatted with Acer support about this and they had absolutely zero info except to suggest that I contact vendors who may know. None of them knew anything.
So if they are waiting for Cedia to announce this I say lame. It exists, just not here. Frankly, I am tired of waiting. Soon I expect to see other units just as capable so as far as I am concerned Acer dropped the ball getting this unit out ahead of others.
As for me, I wanted the unit for a bigger 3D pic than my Samsung RP 61" TV. Now I am looking at 1080P PJs just for the bigger pic and 3D can just be relegated to the Sammy since content is so lacking anyway. I thought the 5360BD was my answer but it simply does not exist and the more I research, the more I realize I want a big 1080P pic and the he!! with 3D. I have 3D now, and can wait and watch how this tech evolves.
Sorry Acer, you had my money earmarked, but delivered no product. Now I am looking at 1080P units. If the Sharp 1700 was not so expensive and the fact that others will be here soon, I would have bought that unit. Can you hear the sound of the ship sailing?

[Warning: This story contains major spoilers from Sunday's episode of True Blood. Read at your own risk!]
After a season of trying to prevent the inevitable, Bill's prophecy came true on Sunday's True Blood — but the outcome wasn't quite what viewers expected.
True Blood left fans with their jaws dropped last Sunday as progeny met maker in a fight to the death. Kristin Bauer van Straten was on hand at Saturday's Comic-Con panel to talk about Pam's role in the death match, but Alexander Skarsgard was not. Before you freak out about what that means, know that upcoming footage screened at the beginning of the panel did include Skarsgard, which should give Eric fans some hope.
Comic-Con's biggest stars were out for the third annual TV Guide Magazine Fan Favorites panel, with president and editor-in-chief Debra Birnbaum welcoming some the hottest names in TV, including Blair Underwood (Ironside), Henry Ian Cusick (The 100), Emily Bett Rickards (Arrow), Giancarlo Esposito (Revolution), Kristin Bauer (True Blood)...

Is it fall yet? I need to know what happens between Rayna and Deacon on Nashville! — Michelle ADAM: They'll make it out of their finale car accident with only bumps and bruises, but the emotional injuries will be far more serious. "They are never going to have [a] smooth-sailing relationship," creator Callie Khouri tells us, pointing to Deacon's discovery that he's Maddie's father. "[Season 2] is not going to look like Father Knows Best. I don't think Deacon ever thought of himself as father material. We'll see him grapple with... whether or not he's right." Worse, given Deacon's dangerous bender, Rayna will feel even more justified in her decision to lie. "She was kind of right not to tell him," Khouri says. "He couldn't handle it."

School Sponsorship
Want to Change a Child's Life Forever? Become a School Sponsor
Child survivors of slavery, and kids born into brothel communities, are destined to grow up and repeat the cycle unless they are given education and support to build a different kind of life.
Made By Survivors' supports the education of over 200 child survivors and kids at high risk to attend school, many for the first time in their lives. We are committed to helping these children continue their education as far as they can, through high school, college or vocational training.
Over the past eight years running programs for survivors, we have learned that educating a child through grade 10 or training her in a high-skills, high wage profession ensures that she will not be trafficked into slavery or re-trafficked.
Some of the children in our education programs were once enslaved in brothels for sexual exploitation. Others labored in quarries or brick kilns, or as domestic servants. Some are the children of slaves, growing up in red light areas.
Education transforms not only the survivors, but also their families, serving as an inspiring example to others, and ultimately bringing sustainable income into the family and community.
Sponsorship costs only $30 a month. Donors can sponsor the children through monthly payments, or through a one-time donation of any amount to our Education Fund. It costs $30 a month ($360 a year) to sponsor one child for a year.
100% of sponsorship donations are used for the children's education and related needs. We don't use sponsorship donations for overhead or for any other projects, and we never will.
Sponsorship pays for:

Riding a zipline from treetop to treetop indulges fantasies of flight and super spydom, while the scenic views inspire those with hearts made of sap and twig. The course covers more than half a mile of Sumter National Forest terrain in Longcreek, South Carolina, which is about a 2.5-hour drive from downtown Atlanta. It takes about three hours to navigate through seven bridges and 10 zipline sections, making the short drive more than worth it. During your quest across nine scenic and historic acres of South Carolina, you'll experience four Academy Lake crossings and a helicopter hoist up to the starting platform.
Carolina Inboard stocks the shelves of its locally-owned shop with top-name brands such as Fox, Proline, Hyperlite, and Accurate, equipping adrenaline-infused aquanauts with the gear they need to conquer the ocean's sundry undulations. Board shorts ($42.50–$65) stylishly conceal the numerous USB ports on one's thighs; a pair of flip-flops ($12) and a t-shirt ($14–$28) ensure that you meet the dress code for Hawaiian jury duty. Otherwise, peruse the board-lined walls of Carolina Inboard's pro shop for a crest-cruising surfboard ($290–$900), an airtime-facilitating wakeboard package ($270–$500), or a wakeskate ($150–$250), which lets riders show off their skateboarding tricks to admiring mer-teenagers.
TGM Golf's instructional team of PGA professionals aims to tame wild swings and shrink scores with comprehensive education on the mechanical, physical, and tactical aspects of golf. Employing a "golfers helping golfers" approach, these trained instructors helm a one-hour training session designed to improve each golfer's process, blending vital positions and movements into one fluid motion. Using video-analysis equipment, coaches narrow down shortcomings, pick out weaknesses, and eliminate any traces of YMCA dance moves hidden in each golfer's stroke. TGM instructors have worked with golfers of all skill levels, including junior golfers who go on to play for college teams around the state.

Nestled in the wooded foothills of the Smoky Mountains, The Trails at Chickasaw Point challenges all club swingers with its par 72 course. Each of the 18 holes challenges budding Arnold Palmers with its own quirks, from sand traps and water hazards to doglegs and putter-eating trees. The seclusion of each hole allows individual groups a rare moment of intimacy with nature, and four USGA-rated tee locations accommodate everyone from the serial shanker to the effortless birdie-achiever. Traveling across the lush lime-green lawns up and down the rolling hills proves much easier with the new Yamaha golf carts or soon-to-be-invented teletransporters.
Though its name suggests an industrial space rumbling and hissing with the engines of machines, The Factory fills its multifaceted play space instead with laughing children, chirping video games, and crashing bumper cars. An arcade brims with more than 100 shooting, driving, dancing, and adventure games that inspire players to bravely extend their winning streaks to a range of other attractions. Single and tandem go-karts careen around the turns and up the ramps of a two-story track. Groups bombard each other with infrared light inside an indoor laser-tag area. Ten slicked-up lanes glow with blacklit projections during cosmic bowling every Friday night. Parents can also indulge their child's natural curiosity about caddying on a nine-hole indoor mini-golf course that winds past the factory's high-ballocity foam factory, inflatable slide, and enclosed ball-tossing chamber.
To stay fueled for continued play, guests can drape their laps with napkins and dig into cuisine from an onsite steak house or an unlimited pizza buffet.

What are the benefits of learning a foreign language?
There are many reasons on why people want to learn a foreign language but it is important for them to know their motivation behind wanting to learn one. Some reasons can be practical like needing it for a new job, and other reasons but be just for fun. Whatever the reason is, learning any language like Spanish, English, German, French, or Italian can be a fun and challenging experience.
Many business people assume wrongly that they can get away with using an interpreter. This is simply not true, and the people who lack the foreign language are immediately put into a disadvantaged situation. Usually using an interpreter slows down meetings and conversations significantly and this is a waste of time. It is better when somebody who is in a meeting who knows the foreign language so the conversation can go smoothly and without interruption. In addition, when somebody is in a social environment it's a lot best that they know the foreign language to effectively communicate with the people there.
College students should also learn a foreign language if they are studying abroad. This will give them the ability to effectively communicate and they will able to study at a foreign university with no trouble. The institution that they are going at should be able to provide them with the proper language lessons and the should provide continuing support throughout the process.
Many people also love to travel during their holidays or vacations, so it is important for them to learn the local language of the region. While some people might get away with speaking English at popular tourist spots and resorts they should learn a foreign language if they really want to understand the culture that they are in. If they want to venture out to places, knowing the locals, etc, there is no doubt that learning a foreign language would help them do that.
Learning a language is a rewarding experience that everybody should take the time to do. It will help them with converting into a new job to experiencing new cultures while traveling. Whatever their motivation is, learning such languages is fun challenge.

Virgin Valley Cab Company Inc
5010 S Valley View Blvd, Las Vegas, NV
Type: Taxis
Location: Off-Strip
Las Vegas
Cabs, double-decked buses, motor scooters, rental cars and the Las Vegas monorail. Heck, you might even flag down a rickshaw ... well, maybe not a rickshaw. But all you need to know, geographically, is this: Everything radiates from the Strip.
Airport Shuttle
The most economical way to get to your hotel. Shuttles can cost less than $10 for Strip/Downtown. Check with your hotel for schedules.
Car Rentals
The average price for an economy car in Vegas is around $25 to $30 per day, but the sky's the limit if you want a little more extravagant.
Limousine Services
See Las Vegas in style for as low as $35 an hour. Options and pricing vary depending on the vehicle and services.
Free parking is abundant. Virtually every major hotel offers free valet parking (don't forget to tip!)
Public Transportation - (Regional Transportation Commission - RTC)
A one-way fare on the Strip costs $3, and slightly less in the rest of the city. Buses on the Strip run 24/7.
Fares start with $3.30 on the meter, and $2.65 is then added for every additional mile.
The Las Vegas Monorail
The Monorail travels from Sahara Ave to the MGM Grand 7 days per week from 7 a.m. - 12 a.m; Monday, Tuesday - Thursday 7 a.m. - 2 a.m. and 7 a.m. - 3 a.m. Friday-Sunday. Visit website for location stops and ticket prices.
Vegas on Foot
You will still cover a lot of the city on foot. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes and carry a bottle of water, especially during summer months.

Not sure this would be possible, but I'd love to see an application that turned the iphone on and off at specified times. IT would really save a lot of wear on the battery for idiots like me who can't remember to power down their phone over night.
