What lobby furniture should you buy? Your reception area furniture should include great seating as well as smaller items including coat racks, umbrella stands and magazine racks. With 45 years of experience in the furniture industry, you know you can trust Hertz Furniture to give you everything you need in the office.
Why is reception furniture important?
Every office needs to have its own character. Your guests and clients are going to understand the character of your company through your reception furniture because that is the first thing they see when they come into your space. When it comes to your office, you only have one chance to make a good first impression, so choose your reception furniture very carefully.
While individual taste is important, you need to keep the purpose of your office in mind. If you're furnishing an executive office, you will probably want to choose pieces that project your professionalism and experience. On the other hand, if you're purchasing for a pediatrician, then Mickey Mouse and Co. just might be the way to go.
How do you choose reception chairs?
One thing every reception area needs is reception seating. Because clients might show up early, it is important to make sure that you choose the most comfortable seating you can find to make every wait a comfortable one. Your guests and clients will definitely appreciate it.
Should I get accent tables?
If you have the space and the budget, you can strategically place some end tables between the chairs so you can promote your company or services with pamphlets or brochures. If you don't have reading material of your own, then you can put out magazines or newspapers so clients can pass the time in an enjoyable way. If you don't have the floor space to spare for end tables, you can try some compact magazine racks and literature stands.
What should I look for in a reception desk?
A well-planned reception desk that takes your secretary's needs into consideration will give your office a big efficiency boost. If your office is the type where clients are constantly coming up to your secretary's desk to ask questions, then a desk with a reception counter is highly recommended. This will ensure the secretary's privacy. For secretaries who work with confidential information, such as medical records or tax forms, a high counter can be crucial.
Something else to look for in reception desks is good storage. That means file drawers, regular drawers, locks, and computer-friendly features. Wire-management grommets in the desktop are a big plus. Your secretary doesn't want a wire-cluttered desktop any more than you do. If you really want to make sure that she gets what she needs, ask her what her preferences are before you do any reception-desk shopping. She's the one who's going to be using it – and she knows what she needs in order to function at maximum efficiency.
What will make my waiting room better?
Now that the basics are covered, you can go on to the smaller details. Umbrella stands can be a really convenient item to have in your reception area. They will keep your other reception furniture from getting wet because your clients had nowhere else to put their dripping umbrellas. Coat racks are great for similar reasons. Another item that might seem trivial but totally isn't is a waste receptacle, a.k.a. trash can. Although these may sound unsightly, they need not be. As a matter of fact, some of them are really quite attractive. If you want to have an eco-friendly office then get some recycle cans for the staff lounge and cafeteria.
If some of this sounds confusing, don't think you're clueless. Choosing office furniture can be quite a challenge. At Hertz Furniture, we have a whole team of design experts ready to help you find the best reception furniture for your needs. Whether you're refurbishing an entire office or just looking to upgrade an existing floor plan, Hertz Furniture will be happy to assist you.

All of Academia's models are designed for long-term use in the educational environment. In fact, with 25-year and Limited Lifetime Warranties you are guaranteed to enjoy the benefits of this versatile and colorful school furniture for many years to come. The huge selection of styles and materials is sure to fit any budget or preference.
Classroom work spaces can be supplied by activity tables or school desks. Activity tables are appropriate for children from preschool through elementary school. Academia school tables come in a number of sizes, styles and shapes. No matter what shape you choose, Educational Edge tables offer a great way to add a splash of color to a learning space. They will make any classroom more lively and inviting.
School desks aren't what they used to be. Although the classic four legged design with a book-box underneath the work surface is still available, Academia brings you a number of viable alternatives that are suited to the modern classroom. Their exclusive WoodStone desktops have the durability of hard plastic, yet they cost and weigh significantly less. For maximum strength and versatility, models are available with adjustable-height and U-braces for reinforcement.
Student chair desks should be considered when purchasing classroom furniture. They come in the same durable materials as school desks, but with the added convenience of attached seating. When a classroom is full of combo desks, teachers can be sure that students won't lean back in their chairs, and there are always enough chairs to match desks. Combo desks also guarantee that chair and desk heights match up.
For those who opt not to furnish a classroom with chair desks, school seating must be purchased so students have a place to sit in class. Academia offers some tough classic poly shell and hard plastic models as well as attractive new designs from the Inspiration Series. These sleek school chairs come in vibrant colors and feature 17 reinforcement ridges for a durable, flexible and supportive design.
Even your youngest learners deserve to learn in an environment with appropriately-sized school furniture. Academia activity tables and school chairs come in any height that you need, so you can have first-rate preschool furniture as well. When young learners have school chairs and activity tables that are just the right size, it is easier for them to develop proper posture and skills.
While the classroom is where students spend the bulk of their time at school, there are a number of other rooms that also require appropriate furniture. Whether they are learning how to utilize technology for educational purposes or harness their musical talents, your pupils need furniture that supports their endeavors. With the right pieces, you can channel the hard work of children and young adults toward future successes.
Computers are becoming increasingly important in the educational environment. Some functional computer tables can help support technology in the classroom, or furnish a contemporary computer lab. In order to ensure that your setup promotes ergonomic positioning, some appropriate computer chairs are necessary as well. With the right computer furniture, students can learn how to type correctly and hone their online research skills.
When furnishing a music room or band room, regular tables and chairs just won't cut it. Music furniture is specially designed to help student musicians play in a healthy position so they will learn how to hold their instruments and breathe correctly from the beginning. Academia's musician chairs support students as they play, whether in practices or performances.
Another room that requires special furniture is the science lab. Having appropriate lab furniture ensures the safety of students and teaches proper experimentation techniques. Academia offers a number of excellent lab stools that enable students to sit comfortably as they take notes or experiment at counter-height surfaces.
Creating an environment that is conducive to education and growth begins with appropriate layouts for learning. In order to make sure that students are properly supported with the physical tools that are needed for success, you want to give them the best school furniture out there. Academia school furniture provides the models you need to put students on the path to success as they gain critical knowledge that will be carried far into the future.

Over the course of the next few weeks we'll take a look back at a few of the articles I churned out at the beginning of the pre-season and evaluate whether or not my prognostications were on the money or completely off base.
Joe Thornton – C- San Jose
On average, Thornton's the 13th overall center being selected in Yahoo! leagues, which is a bit low in my opinion. I know last year was a bit of a down year, but he's only a year removed from being a 1.13 point-per-game player and since the lockout he's averaged 1.26 points-per-game. The drop off in point totals in 2010-11 could be mainly attributed to the offensive depth that the Sharks had. He wasn't heavily leaned upon to put up the points, since they had Patrick Marleau, Joe Pavelski, Ryane Clowe, Dany Heatley, Devin Setoguchi and the out of the blue producer Logan Couture to do that for him. Now, with big offensive pieces like Heatley and Seto moved, the onus is back on Thornton to be a main focal point of the Sharks offense. I'd strongly consider bypassing a Jonthan Toews, Jeff Carter, or Ryan Kesler and opt for drafting Thornton in the fourth round instead.
Spot on with this one. He didn't post the numbers that I initially thought he would (point-per-game), but his 77 points in 82 games ranked him in tied for a spot in the top-12 in league scoring. Certainly Thornton was a bargain price if you managed to snag him in the fourth round of your fantasy drafts. Maaaasquito Bite: HIT.
Taylor Hall – LW– Edmonton
Hall missed 17 contests last season due to an ankle injury, which kind of explains why he's fallen a bit in Yahoo! pre-season draft rankings. He still managed to post 42 points in 65 contests which would have pro-rated to 52 contests over a full season. Hall also averaged just 18:12 overall and 2:43 on the PP per contest. If he can manage to get up into the 20's and over three minutes of PP ice-time this season, I wouldn't be surprised to see a strong breakout sophomore campaign, (75+ points), from the former first-overall pick.
Injuries once again de-railed his sophomore season in the NHL. His stat-line would have pro-rated to a respectable 71 points, a minus four rating, 48 PIM, 28 PPP along with 278 SOG over the course of a full 82-game season. If he can ever shake the injury bug, he could really bust out next campaign. Maaaasquito Bite: PUSH. (Can't draw a solid conclusion based on pro-rated stats)
Paul Stastny – C – Colorado
Things were pretty much fine and dandy for Stastny up until Christmas. Things were going swimmingly when he picked up 35 points in 37 contests, then disaster struck and the entire Avs team came crashing down to Earth along with Stastny. Yes, they lost Chris Stewart, but they found a replacement in Gabriel Landeskog. Peter Mueller, (mentioned later), should be back and if T.J. Galiardi or David Jones can stay healthy the Avs can seriously be a darkhorse team this campaign. Stastny is currently being drafted as the 22nd overall center, but I would not be at all surprised if he ended up top-10 by season's end. He'd be a great number two for all fantasy squads.
Stastny certainly didn't light the world on fire, but did finish with a respectable end-of-year point total. With the emergence of Ryan O'Reilly that really took a lot of steam from Stastny's sails. I certainly had higher expectations from Stastny than where he actually finished off. Maaaasquito Bite: MISS.
Alex Edler – D- Vancouver
Yahoo! dropped the ball on this one. Edler was on a 55-point pace before succumbing to a torn disc in his back, which caused him to miss nearly three months of the regular season. Depth was a problem for the Canucks blue-line last campaign, as there just wasn't enough ice-time to spread amongst all of their defensemen. That problem has received a temporary solution as Christian Ehrhoff was let go in the off-season, meaning that there should be more ice-time (especially on the PP), to spread around this season. Edler is the "go to" guy in Vancouver and should be the main recipient of some of that residual ice-time. Make sure you slide him up the list on draft day.
On average Edler was drafted as the 26th blue-liner in Yahoo! fantasy drafts but managed to finish as the ninth ranked blue-liner. He really took over the reigns as the "go to" number one PP QB in Vancouver, which in turn resulting in his offensive production to spike. Those who landed Edler at the discounted price were surely rewarded with his production. A whopping 16 percent of the top 500 Yahoo! Public Roto league winners owned Edler, which just proved how much of a difference maker he was this campaign. Maaaasquito Bite: HIT.
Shane Doan – RW – Phoenix
If you're looking for consistency then you probably don't need to look much further than Doan. Since the lockout he's averaged 78.5 games played as well as 64.5 points and 231.8 SOG per season. Someone will need to score for the Yotes and it'll probably most likely be Doan. 43.3 and 30 percent of Doan's points occurred with Ray Whitney and Radim Vrbata on the ice respectively. Both of those players remain in the desert, so there should be some residual chemistry left for the top-line. At the bargain bin price of the 150th pick, it makes Doan well worth it.
Although the numbers weren't as good as the numbers listed in the pre-season column, his 50 points and 226 SOG are within ballpark figures of my initial projections. 54 percent of his point production occurred with Whitney, while 24 percent occurred with Vrbata, which kept Doan in the top-100 of league forward production. He was certainly a bargain bin pick up while cementing a solid roster-filler role for many fantasy teams. Maaaasquito Bite: HIT.
Jamie Benn – LW – Dallas
Benn managed to tally six points and 21 SOG, while averaging 22:27 per game during the seven contests that Brad Richards was out last season dealing with concussion issues, which does show that the ability to self-generate offense is definitely there. He'll need to step up big time to help fill the void that Richards left and should get plenty of opportunity to do so with a top-six gig securely locked up in Dallas. Considering he's on average the 27th LW taken in fantasy drafts, that's definitely great value if he ends up on your squad and not someone else's.
I kind of cheated with this pick, as Benn was pretty much on everyone's "cheapie" radar during the pre-season. He was probably the consensus number one bargain bin pick heading into this fantasy campaign. Benn didn't disappoint as he finished with 63 points in an injury-shortened campaign, which still ranked him in the top-50 amongst all forwards. Maaaasquito Bite: HIT.
James Wisniewski – D – Columbus
Jeff Carter claimed most of the the poolie's attention when he was traded to the Jackets earlier in the summer, but the bigger move might have been the signing of free agent Wisneiwski. The Jackets have lacked a puck-moving D-man now for ages, and they might have found their solution with Wissy. 38 percent of his career points have come with the man advantage and the 1.69 SOG per game average demonstrates that he isn't afraid of shooting the puck. A power-play unit of Rick Nash, Jeff Carter, Vinny Prospal, Grant Clitsome and Wissy could certainly post plenty of headlines this season. He's severely undervalued compared to his average ranking of the 36th defenseman taken at Yahoo! drafts at the moment.
Really hard to draw a solid conclusion on Wisniewski, as the Jackets were completely Jekyll and Hyde this campaign, along with Wissy's suspension and injuries. I would argue that if he stayed healthy, he probably would have finished much better than the initial 36th ranked blue-liner, but we'll never know. Maaaasquito Bite: PUSH.
Simon Gagne – LW – Los Angeles
I know Gagne has been nicked up the last few years with injuries, but the offensive upside still remains plentiful for the 31-year old. One of the biggest reasons why the Kings picked up Gagne from the free agent market over summer was his previous ties with newly acquired Mike Richards. The last time that both he and Richards suited up together in Philadelphia, Gagne registered 74 points, while Richards recorded 80. According to FrozenPool, 84.7 percent of those points were recorded with Gagne on the ice. There was certainly plenty of chemistry between the two stars in Philly and if they can manage to rekindle some of that in Hollywood, Gagne would certainly make a great dark horse candidate to snag late in drafts.
Once again, pretty hard to draw a solid conclusion for Gagne as injuries completely de-railed his season. Maaaasquito Bite: PUSH.
Ian White – D – Detroit
If Nicklas Lidstrom is singing White's praises, then he's probably doing something right. The latest news coming out of Detroit is that Lidstrom thinks that White is going to be just fine in the MotorCity. White's playing style just reminds me a lot of Brian Rafalski and how he approached the game. There isn't exactly a ton of competition in the Detroit defensive corps, which should pretty much hand White a default top-two gig on a silver platter. If Rafalski can manage to pot 48 points last season, expecting 40+ from White probably isn't too much to ask.
White had a very interesting season. From the start of the season till Valentine's Day, he posted 28 points in 54 contests (which was a 42 points pace), but he then finished 2011-12 with just four points in the final 23 contests (funnily enough co-incided with Lidstrom's injury). If you look at end-of-year numbers, then this is a MISS, but there were glimpses where this could certainly been a huge HIT during the season. Maaaasquito Bite: MISS.
Sheldon Souray – D – Dallas
The biggest Western Conference boom or bust candidate heading into this season is probably Souray. As I mentioned last week, he spent the entire last season riding the buses in the minors, and will enter this season with a huge chip on his shoulder. Much like the situation with White, there isn't a lot of competition on the defensive front for Souray in Dallas. With a cannon of a slapper, he'll surely be primarily utilized on the Stars' top PP unit and garner plenty of high quality scoring opportunities on the way. Another huge positive for Souray is he's a great under-the-radar contributor for the peripheral stats. He maintains career averages of 1.57 PIMs and 2.32 SOG per game, which roughly translates to 128 PIMs and 190 SOG over a course of a full 82-game campaign. Obviously, things don't always go peachy keen with him. Injuries are a major problem for him as he's averaged just 60 games played per season since the lockout. If you can swallow the gamblers pill, you could certainly be well rewarded if Souray comes back with a vengeance.
Was pretty spot on with my pre-season projection as his 1.14 PIM (73, tied for 16th amongst all blue-liners) and 2.80 SOG (179, 13th) per game averages were reasonably in line with his career numbers. He also appeared in 64 contests, which is right around the mark that he has averaged since the lockout. The points weren't entirely there, but the peripherals were the main reasons why you would have wanted to own Souray. Maaaasquito Bite: HIT.
Peter Mueller – LW– Colorado
If you've been following fantasy hockey for a while now, then you're probably well aware of Mueller's situation. He basically missed the entire last season due to recovery from concussion symptoms. A couple of positives that you should keep in mind is that he did register 57 points during his rookie season as well as a massive 20 points in 15 contests when he was moved to the Avs post-trade deadline in 2010. The chemistry between Milan Hejduk, Matt Duchene and Mueller was undeniable. If they can manage to rekindle some of that chemistry, the Avs could be a surprise team in 2010-11. With LW being so shallow, definitely keep Mueller's name in the back of your mind for your drafts.
Injuries once again de-railed Mueller's campaign. He managed to only suit up for 32 contests which really hampered his offensive output. If you look at the stats that he did produce, they weren't too shabby with 16 points, five of which were on the PP, along with 82 SOG in 32 contests. I don't know if he will ever be healthy enough for a full 82-game season, which will always devalue his worth in fantasy leagues. Maaaasquito Bite: PUSH.
Devin Setoguchi – RW – Minnesota
A change of scenery is exactly what the doctor order for Seto. In SJ he was playing fifth/sixth fiddle to the "big names" of the Sharks. If you look at his overall stats, they aren't actually all that horrifying. He boasts a 0.6 points and 2.68 SOG per game career averages (pro-rated to 49 points and 220 SOG over 82 games). Seto will finally get a chance to show his stuff in a locked top-six role with the Wild. If he, Mikko Koivu, and Dany Heatley can make a connection, he'll certainly produce much higher than the 41st RW that's currently being taken in fantasy drafts.
Seto finished with 36 points and 174 SOG while appearing in 69 contests for the Wild this campaign. If you break those numbers down to per game averages, it would have been very closely in line with the numbers that I stated in the pre-season column (0.52 and 2.52). The problem for me is if you look at the players that were drafted near or around him, Kyle Okposo, Milan Hejduk, Jordan Eberle, Kris Versteeg, Jakub Voracek and Ales Hemsky, I don't think he provided any better value than the rest of those candidates. Maaaasquito Bite: MISS.
Sami Salo – D- Vancouver
The most under-rated player in terms of Yahoo! rank probably has to be Salo. I know he missed most of last season due to an Achilles injury, but when he returned he posted a decent seven points in 27 regular season contests while following that up with five in 21 during the playoffs. After Ehrhoff and Edler, Salo was actually the third highest recipient of PP ice-time for the Nucks. With Ehrhoff out of the picture, look for Salo to claim a large chunk of Ehrhoff's residual ice-time. The only downside is that he's averaged just 57.3 games played per season since the lockout, so if you do take the leap of faith on the 37-year old expect a few games missed.
Salo ended up claiming a lot of the residual ice-time that was left from Ehrhoff's departure. He averaged 2:45 on the PP, which was second to Edler's 3:26. As predicted he also missed 13 contests due to "concussion symptoms", but still managed rank as the 48th overall blue-liner (and 31 percent Yahoo! owned), at season's end, which is a huge improvement considering he was largely left undrafted at the fantasy draft table during the pre-season. Maaaasquito Bite: HIT.
So overall similar to last week, as I finished with a 6-3-4 record which puts me at 12-6-9 for the two columns. Next week we'll take a look at my Not With a 10-Foot Pole column back from the pre-season.
Should you be so inclined, follow me on Twitter if you think that my article/tweets are useful.

Blood Test Anticipates Diabetes 10 Years in AdvancePosted: Wednesday, September 29, 2010
A blood test that could predict those at risk of getting diabetes 10 years earlier than current diagnosis has been developed by scientists.
British researchers have reported that it may be possible to identify people who are going to develop Type 2 diabetes even before symptoms occur. If the test can be verified, it might be possible to screen people who are at higher-than-normal risk of developing diabetes and intervene before symptoms, and the broad spectrum of complications that accompany them, occur.
The test can identify around half of people who will develop Type 2 diabetes, said researchers. It works by detecting levels of a genetic molecule in their blood.
The same molecule, called a microRNA (MiR), could help pinpoint sufferers at high risk of heart and artery disease.
The test can also distinguish between those who will and will not go on to develop some of the complications of diabetes caused by damage to blood vessels, such as heart attack, stroke and poor circulation.
Dr. Manuel Mayr, lead scientist, King's College London, UK, said he expected the MiR test to be used in conjunction with conventional methods. It is likely to cost around $3. Its biggest advantage was that it directly assessed the damage diabetes was causing to blood vessels.
"It's very important for doctors to define those diabetic patients that are at the highest risk of developing cardiovascular complications," said Dr. Mayr. "We hope that this new class of blood markers may give additional insight that we're currently not getting from other clinical tests."
Being able to identify which people with diabetes are particularly at risk of having a heart attack or stroke should allow doctors to begin early treatment with cholesterol and blood pressure-lowering drugs and target it at those who are most likely to benefit.
One type of micro-RNA, known as MiR-126, protects blood vessels from damage.
Healthy blood vessel cells are able to release substantial MiR-126 in to the blood stream. However, when they become damaged, they need to keep the MiR-126 for themselves and shed less in to the blood.
In a study of 822 residents, they identified five specific microRNAs whose concentration in blood was abnormally low in people with diabetes and in those who subsequently went on to develop the disorder. One in particular, microRNA 126, was among the most reliable predictors of current and future diabetes, they said. MicroRNA 126 is known to help form new blood vessels and regulate their maintenance and its loss may be an indicator of blood vessel damage and cardiovascular disease. They subsequently showed that levels of the marker were also reduced when large amounts of sugar were given to mice with a genetic propensity to develop diabetes.
The risk of having a heart attack is between two and five times greater in people with diabetes. Around 15 percent of heart attacks are due to diabetes.
Professor Jeremy Pearson, associate medical director at the British Heart Foundation, which funded the research, said, "This is important because right now there is no quick and simple way to monitor blood vessel health."
"Problems go unnoticed until symptoms appear, and the first symptom could be as serious as a heart attack."

LINCOLN — The University of Nebraska-Lincoln is not the same school as it was at the start of this century, Chancellor Harvey Perl�man said Tuesday in his State of the University speech.
UNL is now "comfortably" a part of the Big Ten. The campus has grown, in both its footprint with new buildings and its academic offerings. Looking back from the future, Perlman said, this time can be seen as one from which high expectations brought unprecedented results.
"Our goal should be no less than that when the next history of the university is written, it will be the beginning of the 21st century, not the turn of the 20th, that is regarded as our golden age, when we regained our rightful place among the leading universities in the country," Perlman said.
To accomplish that goal, Perlman said in the speech delivered at the Lied Center, it's time to do the work to increase UNL's student population to 30,000 and increase its pool of tenure-track faculty.
Continuing to boost the university's enrollment is among Perlman's priorities. Last week, enrollment numbers showed an overall increase of just 1 percent over 2012, to 24,445 students. The university would need to increase enrollment by an average of 1,388 students annually to hit its goal.
"Frankly, I underestimated the infrastructure we would have to build and the level of new activities we would have to undertake in order to move the enrollment needle," Perlman said.
But he said the necessary investments have been made, and the goal is now to improve retention, graduation rates and online education. Increasing the number of tenure-track faculty will also boost UNL's profile in research, Perlman said.
The university's research reputation took a hit in 2011 when it was the first college to be voted out of the prestigious Association of American Universities.
Ken Nickerson, a professor of biological sciences and president-elect of the Faculty Senate, said he's been impressed with UNL's recruiting efforts since the growth goal was announced.
Though overall enrollment growth was 1 percent, the fresh�man class grew by 12 percent. That's an important measure for faculty, Nickerson said, because enrollment growth and the number of tenure-track professors are tied.
"We get more students, we use the money to increase the faculty, and that can only be good," Nickerson said.
He was also pleased that Perl�man recognized the infra�structure deficiencies, something Nickerson said has been a problem for a decade in the science buildings where lab space is scarce.
"This doesn't mean there won't be bumps, but I think the chancellor has a good long-term vision and he's acting on it," Nickerson said.
Perlman will have to first contend with a hole in this year's budget he estimated to be about $3.5 million, which includes a $2 million deficit carried over from last year and $570,000 in increased operating costs for new buildings.
He told faculty, staff and students at the Lied Center that the small enrollment increase will make up some of the deficit.
But some budget cuts and "reallocations" may be needed to put the university in the black.
It's too soon to know what the revenue stream looks like and what cuts, if any, will occur, Perlman said. But he hopes to find "permanent reductions as far from the academic enterprise as possible" that will help him cut costs.
"I don't want to carry it (the deficit) forward," Perlman said. "It does restrain your ability to make investments in where you need to go so we're going to take a really good, hard look at trying to solve it in the course of the year."
A 3 percent salary increase pool has been budgeted for faculty and staff.
Perlman also announced plans for deans to work with faculty members to better assess their time apportionment, and how well their teaching time versus research time fits with the university's advancement goals.
Perlman described the plan as a healthy way to better evaluate the work of faculty and the best way to ensure their job performance expectations are in line with their plans and passions.
Also on the list of priorities for Perlman: moving forward with the Innovation Campus now under construction, and capitalizing on the engineering school's dual locations in Lincoln and Omaha. The chancellor mentioned specifically the Peter Kiewit Institute as a unique opportunity, and said the best interests of the university, Omaha and the state are served by smart investments in both locations.
The future of the institute is scheduled for discussion during Friday's Board of Regents meeting.
"We cannot be distracted by the few who would raise old Lincoln-Omaha tensions," Perlman said.

Thursday, April 24, 2014
By KAREN DEYOUNG and ANNE GEARAN The Washington Post
WASHINGTON — President Obama is weighing a military strike against Syria that would be of limited scope and duration – designed to serve as punishment for Syria's use of chemical weapons and as a deterrent – while keeping the U.S. out of deeper involvement in that country's civil war, senior administration officials said.
In this image taken from amateur video posted online, appearing to show a presumed UN staff member measuring and photographing a canister in the suburb of Moadamiyeh in Damascus, Syria, Monday Aug. 26, 2013, the suburb of Damascus where the Syrian regime allegedly used deadly chemical weapons. AP could not verify the authenticity of the video, but it is consistent with Associated Press reports. U.N. experts collected samples and testimony from Syrian doctors and victims of an alleged chemical weapons attack on Monday following a treacherous journey through government and rebel-held territory during which their convoy was struck by snipers. (AP Photo/MEDIA OFFICE OF MOADAMIYEH)
This Aug. 21, 2013, file image provided by by Shaam News Network, which has been authenticated based on its contents and other AP reporting, purports to show several bodies being buried during a funeral in a suburb of Damascus, Syria. A senior administration official said Sunday, Aug. 25, 2013, that there is "very little doubt" that a chemical weapon was used by the Syrian regime against civilians in an incident that killed at least a hundred people last week, but added that the president had not yet decided how to respond. (AP Photo/Shaam News Network, File)
The attack would probably last no more than two days and involve sea-launched cruise missiles -- or possibly long-range bombers -- striking military targets not directly related to Syria's chemical weapons arsenal, the officials said.
The timing is dependent on three factors: completion of an intelligence report assessing Syrian government culpability in last week's alleged chemical attack; ongoing consultation with allies and Congress; and determination of a justification under international law.
"We're actively looking at the various legal angles that would inform a decision," said an official who spoke about the presidential deliberations on the condition of anonymity. Missile-armed U.S. warships are already positioned in the Mediterranean.
As the administration moved rapidly toward a decision, Secretary of State John Kerry said the use of chemical weapons in an attack Wednesday against opposition strongholds on the eastern outskirts of Damascus is now "undeniable."
Evidence being gathered by United Nations experts in Syria was important, Kerry said, but not necessary to prove what is already "grounded in facts, informed by conscience and guided by common sense."
On Monday, the team of U.N. weapons investigators visited one of three rebel-held suburbs where the alleged attack took place, after first being forced to withdraw when their vehicles came under sniper fire. The Syrian government, which along with Russia has suggested that the rebels were responsible for the chemical attack, agreed to the U.N. inspection over the weekend.
Videos and statements by witnesses and relief organizations such as Doctors Without Borders have proven that an attack occurred, Kerry said. The U.S. intelligence report is to be released this week.
Among the factors, officials said, are that only the government is known to possess chemical weapons and the rockets to deliver them, and its continuing control of chemical stocks has been closely monitored by U.S. intelligence.
Kerry said Syrian forces had engaged in a "cynical attempt to cover up" their actions, not only by delaying the arrival of the U.N. team but by shelling the affected area continually. Any strike would probably await the departure of the U.N. inspectors from Syria.
Kerry's statement, which he read to reporters in the State Department briefing room without taking questions, was part of an escalating administration drumbeat, which is likely to include a public statement by Obama in coming days. Officials said the public warnings are designed partly to wring any possibility of cooperation out of Russia – or an unlikely admission from the government of Syrian President Bashar Assad – before Obama makes his decision.
"Make no mistake: President Obama believes there must be accountability for those who would use the world's most heinous weapons against the world's most vulnerable people. Nothing today is more serious, and nothing is receiving more serious scrutiny," Kerry said.
He and other officials drew a sharp distinction between U.S. action related to a violation of international law by what they called Assad's "massive" use of chemical weapons, and any direct military involvement in the Syrian conflict, which is in its third year.

The Wildcats hit 8 of 13 from 3-point range and shot 61.1 percent from the floor to spoil Munford's third regional semifinal appearance in as many years.
"It's kind of disappointing to get here three years in a row and get knocked out in the first round each," Munford coach Isiah Gaddis said. "It's an accomplishment to make it, but we just came out flat."
Munford finished its season at 13-16. Guntersville (20-9) will play the Anniston-Madison County winner Saturday at 10:45 a.m.
Guntersville got 19 points from Dakota Cothran, 17 from Blake Kennedy and 13 with 10 rebounds from Darris Stewart. They combined to hit six of the Wildcats' 3-pointers.
When Munford adjusted and ran out on Guntersville's shooters, the Wildcats drove around them or hit backdoor plays.
"Our plan was just to come out and execute our offense and be able to take care of the ball and make sure we block them out and do a good job of rebounding against them," Guntersville coach Fred Steger said. "They're a good athletic team, and they do a good job going to the boards and making second, third and fourth chances."
Munford finished with four offensive rebounds and got outrebounded 26-15 overall.
Monteo Garrett led the Lions with 14 points, and Quan Richardson added 11.

Pycnogenol, the number one prescription for retinopathy in France, is unknown to many doctors in the United States who treat people with diabetes. French doctors swear by Pycnogenol's antioxidant powers, but most American doctors cannot even pronounce it.
Pycnogenol is the name for the patented pill form of the French Maritime pine tree bark, one of many pine tree species that contains bioflavonoids. Bioflavonoids, also found in fruits, help vitamin C to function.
Pycnogenol is comprised of a particularly helpful group of bioflavonoids, called the proanthocyanidins. Proanthocyanidins have been shown to improve the elasticity of the capillaries, which are small blood vessels.
Besides the antioxidant abilities of the bioflavonoids, Pycnogenol is also said to improve circulation, a particular concern in diabetes.
Complete Remission of Retinopathy
Tom Petersen, a school psychologist from San Francisco, is passionate about Pycnogenol. He credits the product with curing his retinopathy. Petersen has had type 1 diabetes for 45 years, during which his control has been good. In 1982, doctors told Petersen that his right eye would require laser surgery and his left would be next. Realizing that retinopathy could take his sight one day, he researched treatments on his own. What Petersen came up with was Pycnogenol. His ophthalmologist had never heard of it and didn't seem very interested in researching it, even after Petersen described its popularity in France. So he began taking it on his own.
After four months of taking Pycnogenol, Petersen's ophthalmologist reported that his retinopathy seemed to be regressing. After another four months, Petersen says he experienced "complete remission." After one year of Pycnogenol, he only requires a yearly eye exam and his ophthalmologist says Pycnogenol is the only thing to which he can attribute the improvement.
Petersen recommended Pycnogenol to two friends with retinopathy. They too had complete regression of retinopathy.
"I'm not a researcher or a medical expert," he says, "but I am sure about these three cases."
Pycnogenol Studies
Many European studies have proven Pycnogenol's success as an antioxidant, and other studies have linked a depletion of antioxidant vitamins to the onset of diabetes complications.
One study, published in the journal Ophthalmic Research in 1996, proved Pycnogenol's beneficial effects in cow and pig retinas.
Getting It Here
Pycnogenol is available in the United States as a dietary supplement. Although Pycnogenol has been proven to be a powerful antioxidant and a weapon against clogging of the blood vessels, American doctors generally do not recommend it for people with diabetes.

March 7, 2013
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - The Virginia Board of Health is conducting another public hearing on new abortion clinic regulations.
The hearing is set for Thursday afternoon in Richmond. Another public hearing is scheduled for Tuesday in Alexandria.
This is the second round of public comment on the regulations. They have drawn the ire of abortion-rights supporters by requiring existing clinics to meet the same strict building standards as newly constructed hospitals. Critics say those standards could force most of the state's 20 existing clinics to close.
The board conducted two public hearings on the regulations last year. After the second hearing, the board reversed an earlier decision and voted 13-2 to tentatively approve regulations that do not exempt existing clinics from the building standards.

Energy auditors, also known as energy raters, are specialized consultants who help improve the energy efficiency of structures of all sizes. Energy auditors can work on the residential level or the commercial level, plying their trade for homeowners and business owners alike.
As part of the "green" energy business sector, careers as energy raters present ample opportunities for advancement over the coming decade. As a matter of fact, a large number of energy industry analysts anticipate that the alternative energy sector will continue to expand at a much faster pace than expected.
Energy consumers as a whole are becoming increasingly environmentally conscious, which has created a comfortable niche market in which energy auditors can earn a living. A bigger driving factor in the business of energy auditing is the rising cost of energy, primarily residential electricity costs. Similar to the average price of gas, the price of electricity has been on an upward trajectory for the last few decades.
Energy raters and auditors provide clients with actionable, real-world advice that can save hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars annually. Providing individuals and businesses with a means of reducing the cost of energy is the hallmark quality of energy auditors around the world.
Sokanu matches you to one of over 500 careers by analyzing your personality, interests, and needs in life. Take the free assessment now to see your top career recommendations!
Energy raters are essentially building inspectors who provide consultations on energy efficiency. The heating and cooling system of a structure degrades over time if not properly maintained. In other instances, factors unrelated to the integrity of a heating and cooling system can cause buildings to become less energy efficient.
In the real world, energy auditors conduct hands-on tests in order to determine the source of this poor energy efficiency. The types of test performed depend on the knowledge of the energy rater and his or her occupational proficiency.
Conducting a blower-door test is one of the most common home inspections that energy raters perform. This test encompasses using a specialized blower fan to alter the air pressure inside an enclosed structure.
First, energy raters completely close all exterior openings to a building except the opening where the blower fan operates. The blower fan essentially creates a vacuum within the structure, causing exterior air to seep back into the structure. Using a variety of tools and techniques, energy auditors then inspect the structure in search of sources of air leaks.
A more technical test performed by highly advanced energy raters consists of the use of a thermal infrared camera to analyze the amount of heat a building accumulates. Thermal infrared devices allow minor differences in ambient heat to appear via a camera monitor as shades of bright and dark colors. Typically, red and yellow colors signify a higher temperature than darker shades displayed by a thermal infrared camera. By using a thermal monitoring device, energy raters can determine which areas of a structure demand the most attention.
Energy auditors may also conduct thorough inspections of a building's insulation system in addition to analyzing a building's heating and cooling system. This approach provides energy raters another method to increase the energy efficiency of structures large and small.
The education requirements for a career as an energy rater are broad. Those interested in this career path may require no advanced education at all, but often the minimum requirement is a two-year associate's degree or a bachelor's degree in a related field. On-the-job experience in the construction industry is an invaluable asset to possess, too.
Those interested in pursuing a career as industrial-scale energy auditors should obtain a degree in civil and environmental engineering, but other alternate paths exists that are related to engineering, such as architecture. Three schools with highly regarded degree programs well suited for a career as an energy rater include the University of Texas, The University of Toronto, and the University of Illinois.
Energy auditing involves plenty of physical activity. A large number of energy raters are self-employed small-business owners who conduct on-site inspections several times a day. This day-to-day activity may consist of entering attics or even walking on roofs in order to provide a thorough consultation.
Industrial-scale auditors often work out of a large office, coordinating test results with a team of civil engineers. For the upper echelon of energy raters, traveling across the country and consulting on a wide variety of structures is a very distinct possibility.
Careers in energy auditing are one of the fastest-growing energy consulting jobs in the United States and Canada. As the demand for energy auditing services increases over the next decade, the job description of energy auditors will surely narrow to encompass even more technical, scientific analysis.
The compensation scale of energy auditors increases with the amount of education an individual has obtained. Self-employed contractors may earn as much as $30,000 annually, but entrepreneurs who grow a small business may earn significantly more.
Entry-level compensation for industrial-scale auditors is on par with the pay of first-time engineers and architects. Depending on the size of the consulting firm, auditors may earn as little as $40,000 annually and as much as $80,000 as they progress in their careers.
Careers in energy auditing will continue to present tremendous opportunities for people interested in joining the energy industry. As grow continues to accelerate, these opportunities will only become more financially lucrative over the foreseeable future.

There's still a good long wait for The Walking Dead season 2 and if you want, at anytime, to remind yourself of events in season 1 then read my reviews of all The Walking Dead Episodes. If you haven't even seen the first series then for heaven's sake go out and buy the DVD! Similarly, I think, reading the comics will add to your experience as they are quite different from the TV show.
But what can we expect from The Walking Dead series 2? I was a big fan of Lost but I don't mind admitting that as the series wore on I became pretty lost too. All those questions that were asked in one season were often forgotten, in my mind, by the time the next season rolled around. I wished someone would provide a checklist of questions at the beginning of each season to remind me of the key points from the last!
So to answer my own wish, and hopefully help you, I have compiled a list of key points that I hope we will get to the bottom of in The Walking Dead season two.
Beware – Spoilers Ahead. If you haven't seen the first season I suggest you don't read on. Buy The Walking Dead Season 1 and enjoy!
1) What was going on between Shane and Lori before the outbreak?
We know that life was far from perfect in Rick and Lori's home before the zombie apocalypse, but just how strong were Shane's and Lori's feelings for one another at that point? The fact that they got it together so quickly, after Rick was left for dead, makes me think there's some history there.
2) How long has Shane got?
It seems to be one step forward three steps back for Shane. He does something half decent and then flies off the handle and does something unconscionable. Those who are familiar with the comic books know he should have been dead ages ago. Right now he's such a central character in the TV series, but does that mean he's here to stay? We shall see.
3) What's happened to Morgan and Duane?
It seems certain that we will see this father and son duo again, but when. I wonder if we will be shown their separate story. One of the strengths of Lost was its multiple story lines, might they do the same in The Walking Dead season 2?
4) Where the hell is Merle?
You just know when Merle turns up he's going to be pissed! Will he have a stump or a hook? Perhaps he's found God! I doubt it. It will be interesting to see if, and how, he is integrated back into the storyline.
5) Where the hell is Morales and his family?
Will we see them again now that they have split from the group and headed for Birmingham. It's quite possible we won't. And if we do I have a nasty feeling that they will already be a small family of Zombies. Unfortunately for Morales his character, imo, was never really filled out enough for us to care that much about him so…I fear he's very much expendable.
6) Will we see Jim back as a zombie?
Well will we? That'll teach them to show mercy to the infected!
7) Who was in the helicopter?
This is one of those key plot points that can easily get forgotten along the way so…don't forget it!
8) What did Dr Jenner whisper in Rick's ear?
Arrghh! I want to know NOW! I can't wait to find out. In episode 6 Rick reveals that he's been sitting on many feelings of hopelessness, staying strong for the good of the group. Well what new information has he been laden down with now? And will he share or keep it to himself?
9) How long can Rick hold on to his enormous hat?
For me that hat is the mascot of the piece and I only hope it is well cared for throughout season 2.
10) Surely the most crucial question of all… Will Andrea and Carol find new vibrators?
Hey! They started it.
So there are some thoughts from the first season, let me know if I've missed any. Obviously the other big question for fans of the original comic book series is how far will the rest of the walking dead season 2 stray from Kirkman's original work? Personally I'm very happy with the way things are heading. The writers keep touching back on key events from the comics but otherwise everything is up for grabs.

CRIME OF THE WEEK: Repeat Burglaries at Worthington Home

after an elderly Worthington couples home was broken into twice within
six weeks.
They cut open the screen door, and they opened the door somehow, said Chuck, whose home was first invaded by crooks May 16.
While Chuck and his wife Rita were in bed, burglars stole cash, credit cards, and medication.

handicapped during the middle of the night while you are sleeping,
Chuck said.
Within hours of the break-in, surveillance cameras in
several nearby stores caught two men using the victims' stolen charge
cards to buy expensive shoes and clothing.
Six weeks later,
thieves returned to the home, this time busting in a front window to get
inside and steal a purse filled with cash, credit cards, and IDs.
It has to be somebody who is familiar with us, somebody who [knew] where my billfold was, where the purse was, Chuck said.

Education1996 - Ph.D. from The University of Iowa
Current Research
An important but little-studied aspect of viral pathogenesis is the effect of interactions between viruses within specific compartments, such as primary or secondary lymphoid organs, or the oral cavity. More than 95% of us are infected with more than one of the eight human herpesviruses. Childhood infections of most of these viruses, such as herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), varicella-zoster virus (VZV), human herpes viruses 6 and 7 (HHV-6 and HHV-7), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), human cytomegalovirus (CMV), result in mild or asymptomatic diseases. Unlike many virus pathogens, herpesviruses are not completely cleared from the body after the primary infection. Well known as opportunistic pathogens, herpesviruses are able to remain latent for years, and then reactivate during periods of immune suppression, often causing more serious diseases among individuals who have had organ transplants, are undergoing chemotherapeutic cancer treatments, or are HIV-1-infected and developing AIDS. The research goals of the Duus laboratory are to understand the effects of childhood viral infections on immune system development and subsequent immune responses throughout life, which remain poorly understood. Ultimately, this knowledge would be employed to manipulate the immune response, design more effective gene therapy vectors, and generate viral protein-based pharmaceuticals to curtail and/or cure both viral and nonviral diseases. Much can be learned about the molecular mechanisms of host immune response development by comparing effects of nonpathogenic and pathogenic lymphotropic viral infections on gene expression in primary and secondary lymphoid tissues, and in the lymphoid and epithelial tissues of the oral cavity, where many viruses reside, and where many initial exposures to pathogenic and nonpathogenic organisms occur. HIV-1 and herpesviruses target common cell populations in tissues of the oral cavity and the immune system, strongly suggesting that co-infection of cells and/or tissues occurs in HIV-infected individuals. However, the interactions of these viruses have not been extensively studied at the molecular level. The objectives of the studies in the Duus laboratory are to i) develop a dual explant infection model with which to ii) analyze the consequences of HIV-1 and variously pathogenic herpesvirus co-infections on HIV-1 replication and pathogenesis in lymphoid and epithelial tissues of the oral cavity, and to iii) elucidate the molecular mechanism(s) involved in the interaction(s) between these viruses. The central hypothesis of these studies is that alterations in virus infectivity, replication and/or pathogenesis in herpesvirus/HIV co-infected tissues of the oral cavity are mediated by interactions which influence cell signaling pathways. The rationale of the studies is based on i) the shedding of HIV-1 and most herpesviruses in the oral cavity, and ii) the miriad effects of these viruses on many host cell signaling pathways. A better understanding of the mechanisms of HIV-1 interactions with opportunistic herpesviruses may lead to the development of novel therapeutic targets against both retroviral and herpesviral pathogens.

I am tea obsessed, with the stash to match. I tend to really enjoy green oolongs, Chinese blacks, and flavored teas with high quality bases, especially florals, bergamot-based teas, and chocolate teas.
In my free time I am a birder, baker, and music/movie/tv addict.
Here are my rating categories, FYI:
100-90: I'm in LOVE with these teas.
89-85: I really really like these teas and will keep most of them in the permanent collection, but they're not quite as spectacular as the top category
84-80: Tasty teas that I enjoy, but definitely won't rebuy when I run out.
79-70: Teas that I would probably drink again, but wouldn't seek out. They don't quite do it for me in one aspect or another; often just not quite my style
69-50: Teas that I don't really enjoy all that much and wouldn't drink another cup of.
49 and below: Mega yuck. This tea is just disgusting to me.

I know I said that we were going to stay away from Korean BBQ joints for this series but after further thought, it didn't seem right since KBBQ is such a staple of the K-town restaurant industry. Rather than blog about the well-known joints like Road to Seoul or Genwa, Kristen of Rock My Palate and I decided to check out a restaurant we had never heard of but came recommended by Mattatouille.
