About the Designer
Sandy Chilewich
Sandy Chilewich is the founder and creative director of Chilewich / Sultan LLC in the United States. Chilewich has reinterpreted underutilized and overlooked manufacturing practices, producing designs marked by ingenuity and elegance for the last three decades with two distinct businesses. In 1978, Chilewich co-founded the hosiery company HUE with Kathy Moska; by 1997 the company was credited with revolutionizing the leg wear market with its innovations in design, packaging and merchandising. In years after the sale of the still-thriving HUE, Chilewich continued to explore her fascination with materials and textiles. In 1997, she introduced the highly successful Ray Bowl, which was acclaimed with utility patents and numerous awards. In a quest for other fabrics to incorporate into the Ray Bowl, she stumbled upon woven vinyl and fell in love with what she believed was a completely underutilized textile. Hence the launch, in 2000, of Chilewich's current distinctive product line of vinyl textiles. Chilewich went on to design and manufacture a number of successful applications for her growing collection of textiles. Her tablemats and floor mats can be seen in homes and better restaurants around the world. Chilewich bags, totes and cosmetic bags are modern and functional, perfect for travel and everyday use. In 2001 Chilewich, together with her architect husband, Joe Sultan, launched their first product for contract use. The two have changed the firm's corporate name to Chilewich / Sultan LLC to reflect their emergent business partnership. The award-winning Chilewich / Sultan LLC products are sold around the world.
About the ManufacturerUsing both traditional and modern manufacturing techniques, Sandy Chilewich's use of yarn fuses style and sophistication to create innovative textiles and original designs for modern use. Since 1997, Sandy has worked from her New York based studio applying her interest in color and experimentation with fibers to create the company's signature vinyl textiles. The durability of the yarn, its tremendous design versatility and the fact that it is stain resistant and truly washable continues to inspire her. Plynyl, the commercial grade wall-to-wall and tile application, was developed by Sandy's architect husband, Joe Sultan. They are now partners, with a corporate name change to Chilewich Sultan, and manage all aspects of the business together.

"Years after the crippling outbreak that turned most of the human population into undead, a small community of survivors have taken up residence on an island, home to the abandoned facilities of the Argus Research Campus."The Zombie Hunters is a Science Fiction-Horror Webcomic by Jenny Romanchuk, running since late 2006, set in the years after the Zombie Apocalypse. Originally conceived as a private self-insert comic for herself and friends, after they featured in a funny dream involving zombies, Romanchuk posted some strips online, then decided to expand on the concept when they were well-received. It updates weekly on Mondays and occasionally Thursdays. It can be read here.The story centers on a motley but seasoned crew of young, government-sponsored Disaster Scavengers, (the eponymous "Zombie Hunters") all carrier Zombie Infectees dividing their time between coping with their expendable, segregated status at home, and trying not to get bitten in the wastelands filled with multiple "species" of zombies. When not fighting for their lives, searching for salvage or Plundering, they're training in New Meat, among them a half-zombie who chafes as much at having to work with his juniors as he does at their treatment of him. Alongside all this, A.R.C doctors and scientists keep working to Find the Cure for The Virus, engineers keep technology running, Red Halos keep order, and ordinary civilians go about their lives.It all sounds perfectly reasonable and civilized. It isn't.(The comic is rated R for violence, disturbing images, coarse language, and the occasional zomboobie)

Updated: September 4, 2013 9:52 AM EST
Mexican BLTs fall into a category I've named "sport cooking." I do it just for the fun of it, like some people go running, or hiking, or bungee jumping.
The category includes dishes that take a little more attention than your average meal, but they're just so much fun, I laugh all the way to the table.
The sandwiches are not technically difficult. That is not my idea of fun. But love and magic make them like hauling in a bass for fishermen. Yes, you can buy fish and cook it, but the real satisfaction comes from landing the thing.
The funny part is that few dishes are easier to make than a regular BLT, and I'll admit this one is a pain in the neck. The finished product, though, left me wanting more.
Before you fret about the bacon and cheese, keep in mind that the recipe calls for salsa spread in place of mayonnaise, and this packs in the fresh veggies.
Four things I learned:
1. The recipe has three parts: making the salsa, making the bacon and building the sandwiches. The salsa is exceedingly simple: Just broil the veggies, chop and season. I will tell you that I had no desire to hand chop freshly roasted veggies, so I put them all in the food processor and ran it on low for about 10 seconds, until it was chopped but still a little chunky.
By the way, in most cases, you'd drizzle veggies to be roasted with some olive oil. I wouldn't do that for this, because I think it will muddle the bright taste of the light and tangy fresh salsa. The bacon and cheese will bring enough fat to your table.
2. The recipe makes an incredible amount of salsa, up to two cups more than you're going to need, so you might want to plan another use for your salsa. It's good with chips. You could also purée it with cucumber, chill and call it gazpacho, or use it as a dressing on a taco salad.
3. If you take nothing else away from this recipe, let it be the tricked-out bacon.
I know bacon has been so trendy for so long, we should be over it by now, but this version changed my idea about it for good.
As my husband said, eating his first piece and nodding his head vigorously, "Who would have thought to put seasoning on bacon?"
If you answer "Why would you want to?" you need to try this immediately: Brush one side of each slice with a paste of ancho chili powder, cayenne pepper, Mexican oregano, cumin, garlic and vinegar. Bake on a wire rack at 350 degrees, 20 to 30 minutes or until just cooked, flipping once. Thick-cut bacon will obviously take longer than regular bacon.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to hold off on eating all of the bacon before you get to building the sandwiches. Good luck with that.
4. I hate when big-time magazines contain recipes that call for something called "Portuguese rolls" or "Oaxaca cheese," as if home cooks in Erie are supposed to know what they are or where to get them. At least this recipe offered options.
In Food Network Magazine's picture of this, it looked like a rustic Italian loaf, so instead of trying to track down rolls a la Portugal, I got a roughly 12-inch whole loaf from the bakery section at Wegmans.
I completely blew off asking for Oaxaca (wah-HAWK-ah) cheese (Oaxaca is a state in Mexico) and went in search of the suggested salted mozzarella, but no one seemed to know what that was, either, including me.
Co-worker Marnie Mead, who writes the weekly Make It Erie e-newsletter, tells me she's seen Oaxaca cheese at Wegmans and Larry's Central Market on Sassafras Street.
I improvised by shredding an 8-ounce ball of fresh mozzarella and adding a teaspoon of salt to it. It tasted good, but I don't know if that's what they meant. From what I gather, most mozzarella has salt in it already, unless it says differently, so don't sweat it.

For the salsa
1 1/2 pounds tomatoes, halved if large (I used cherry tomatoes.)
1 small onion, quartered
4 cloves garlic, peels on
3 jalapeno peppers, halved lengthwise and seeded
3/4 cup fresh cilantro, coarsely chopped
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
Kosher salt
For the bacon:
2 tablespoons ancho chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
Pinch ground cloves
3 cloves garlic, roughly chopped (I pressed mine.)
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 pound thick-cut bacon (I used thick-cut center-cut.)
For the sandwiches:
4 Portuguese rolls or soft hero rolls (I used a hearty, crusty Italian bread.)
8 ounces Oaxaca cheese or salted mozzarella (See note.)
3 tomatoes, sliced
1/2 small head iceberg lettuce, shredded
1. Make the salsa. Preheat the broiler. Line a baking sheet with foil and add the tomatoes, onion, garlic and peppers (cut side down). Broil, turning as needed, until the tomatoes and onion char and the garlic softens, 6 to 8 minutes. Let cool, then peel the garlic. Coarsely chop the tomatoes, onion, garlic and jalapenos; transfer to a bowl. Stir in the cilantro, vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
2. Make the bacon: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil and set a wire rack on top. Combine the chili powder, cayenne, oregano, cumin and cloves in a small bowl; stir in the garlic, vinegar and 1 tablespoon water. Lay the bacon on the rack in a single layer; brush with the spicy paste. Bake until the fat starts to render, about 15 minutes. Flip using tongs, then continue baking until browned, 10 to 20 more minutes, depending on the thickness of the bacon. Drain on paper towels and let cool until slightly crisp.
3. Assemble the sandwiches: Halve the rolls and pull out some of the bread from the insides. Lightly toast in the oven, 5 to 7 minutes. (I did it in my toaster oven for 3 minutes.) Spread some of the prepared salsa on the bottom half of each roll, then top with a layer of cheese, a few pieces of bacon, some tomato slices and lettuce. Top with more salsa, then cover with the roll tops, pressing them down. Cut in half with a serrated knife.
-- Food Network Magazine, July/August 2013
Note: I shredded an 8-ounce ball of fresh mozzarella and then added a teaspoon of salt to it and tossed. That was way, way more cheese than I needed. A 4-ounce ball with half a teaspoon of salt would be plenty.
Makes 4 sandwiches
- Per serving, assuming all mozzarella used: 395 calories, 14 grams fat, 2.1 grams fiber, 23 grams protein, 43 grams carbohydrate, 951 milligrams sodium, 40 milligrams cholesterol

IBM bans Dropbox, Siri and rival cloud tech at work
BYOD does NOT mean use insecure services
Wait a second here - proper corporate use of BYOD is via secure client apps which never store corporate data on unauthorised external entities and allow the user to connect to internal data storage and services such as corporate email using secure communications.
It is common sense to discourage or prohibit employees to store company data on personal cloud space, send business emails to personal webmail account, or pass company information through external services.
This is not new - staff of large companies have been told not to use Google translate for business purposes for years!
This has nothing to do with BYOD, its about having a proper security culture and the right tools in place for staff to be able to work full within the boundaries of the companies systems.
BYOD is a healthy revolution, but you have to do it professionally and right!
The iPad: Unsubsidised, unaffordable, unloved?
A little unfair
No love? Apple doesn't need to subsidise it, they are in fact struggling to meet demand at the current prices!
The 16G model with 3G is just a little bit more than an unsubsidised smart-phone, which seems about right to me given the screen size.
Also, the pounds performance on the FX markets is not Steve Jobs fault! Although perhaps if the UK had more world class companies like Apple we'd be seeing a better exchange rate! Get used to this, because the pound may fall even further and all these toys are going to cost us more relative to our income!
The ipad is a very elegant device and its integration with the best application store in the industry is a killer feature.
If you feel it's too much, sure, get cheap netbook and miss out on all the excellent cheap software on the appstore, deal with the cramped keyboard and try and pretend touch interfaces are a gimmick.
Take your choice, it's a free country!
Nokia's N97 flagship to sail in this month
Nokia is really losing it
A poor entry into a market that has moved on significantly. What a great phone the N95 was when it came out, but it can't compete now in a world with iPhone sophistication. With iPhone's 3.0 imminent release they will be really lagging behind, and will no longer be able to sit on their laurels claiming superiority on features to make up for the lack of a modern user interface and input efficiency - where's the fast, slick capacitive touch screen model??
Canon Digital Ixus 980 IS compact camera
14mp on a small sensor - thank the marketing department!
"I can't really think of a reason to have a 14mp compact with a small sensor" .... totally agree with Ashley here, it sounds impressive but there's no way the lenses will be up to it. Pointless overkill and only there to compete for the attention of the average consumer. Even the Canon DSLR's with small sensor's couldn't take advantage of this resolution ....
Apple prices iPhone at $666, says analyst
I don't see why i should be forced to Jailbreak
... just to get good SMS. It should be fully featured out of the box as its a basic must have of mobile phones. If someone sends me a business card via bluetooth or SMS on my N95 it pops up in my messages and i can add to my addresses. If i get a picture via SMS in an MMS message i should be able to add it to my photo gallery. If i get a meeting invite via SMS i should be able to add it to my calendar .... all these things i can do on a phone several years older .... and you just cannot assume people want to interact with you over email for these things. Not everyone is restricted by the iPhone!
How about adding proper support for SMS at the same time
...including vCard support, multiple recipients, picture messaging ... etc. etc.
Yeah, Google Earth is very cute, as is the website zooming, but please, get the basics right! I think they should get the iPhone to walk before they try running with it ...
The iPhone App Store - a classic protection racket
While the sun shines
Come on!
Whilst its good to maintain a healthy level of cynicism and critique of the big computer firms, I think this article goes to far.
If the market can bare Apple taking 30% good luck to them. In the current economic climate they'll need a little help whilst consumers cut back on re-assuringly expensive laptops and designer desktop computers.
As it has been pointed out the successful developers have also been doing quite well, and show me a consumer that complains when they get a good piece of software for relatively little money.
Its interesting that they can get away with such a high margin though. If you look at consoles they reportedly get less than 10% for each game sold, although I'm not sure if that figure goes up for "hosted" games, e.g. ones on XBOX Live for example.
There are other areas where the app store may more reasonably come in for criticism, e.g. the way some developers have been accused of "drip feeding" small upgrades to milk their consumers ... but these might be growing pains and you can't have a go at Apple for having a good go

So, now I'm curious. How am I supposed to pour my beer? Great piece dude! That hipster just doesn't understand how plaid-dad has mastered the art of the pour!
Thanks Joel! Apparently you should pour it straight down. I've been doing it wrong all this time. Plaid-dad knows!
Good to know. I usually pour on an angle until the last 1/3rd or so, and then go straight down. But if I must pour straight down 100% for a better beer, then that is what I will do, dammit!

Some Hoosier homeowners face an unwanted surprise when they receive property tax bills or new escrow statements from their lender next year if they don't take action within the next 11 days.
Fortunately for Allen County homeowners, county Auditor Tera Klutz and her staff have made it easier to determine whether you are affected and, if so, to do what's needed.
Changes in property taxes over the years have increased the value of having a homestead deduction for your primary residence. Though the homestead status of your property can affect property taxes in several ways, the homestead deduction basically reduces the assessed value of your house by $45,000 for homes worth $75,000 or more. For those worth less, the value drops 60 percent.
Hoosiers with second homes – which are not entitled to the homestead deduction – saw their tax bills on non-homestead properties skyrocket. With the higher value of the homestead deduction comes higher temptation to – illegally – declare more than one residence as a homestead.
So county officials across Indiana are required to verify with Hoosiers that the property they claim as a homestead truly is their only primary residence. Those addresses are entered into a statewide database that will allow county officials to verify homeowners are claiming the exemption for only one Indiana property.
Beginning in 2010, homeowners received pink cards informing them of the need to verify their homestead status. By last week, owners of about 80,000 of Allen County's 97,000 homestead properties had verified that status, leaving fewer than 20 percent still needing to file the paperwork, Klutz said.
Klutz emphasized that homeowners need to file the verification just once. Many did so in 2010, soon after receiving the card, and may not remember whether they verified their homestead.
The auditor's office has made it fairly simple to determine whether you still need to file the verification. (See accompanying box for the website.)
The website lists homes that still need to be verified. It is searchable both by name and address and also lists all homeowners alphabetically. It also has information on how to complete the form and submit it to the auditor's office online.
A variety of reasons could cause a homeowner who qualifies for the homestead deduction to appear on the list. Many homeowners pay property taxes through their lender's escrow service and may ignore any property tax information sent to their home. People who bought their home recently may have not received the notification. The pink card could have been lost in other mail or mistaken as junk mail.
Whatever the reason, homeowners who do not verify their homestead by Dec. 31 could lose the exemption, costing a typical Fort Wayne homeowner about $1,000 in higher property taxes, Klutz said.
Verifying your eligibility for the homestead property tax break may seem inconvenient for some, but it is a step more than 80 percent of county homeowners have already taken, and state officials are right to enforce the single-homestead rule.

Areca farmers are worried on two counts: decreased yield because of plant diseases and possible decline in demand as more States ban gutka.
A potential way out of this situation, says the Kasaragod-based Central Plantation Crops Research Institute (CPCRI) is switching to cocoa, coconut and banana.
George V. Thomas, Director of the CPCRI, which functions under the Indian Council for Agricultural Research (ICAR), told The Hindu that cocoa beans produced locally met only 40 per cent of the domestic requirement. The remaining was being imported.
Mr. Thomas said that farmers who grow cocoa as an inter-crop in arecanut plantations could opt for large-scale cultivation in view of the demand.
A cocoa plant yields from the third year of planting.
He said that arecanut growers could switch over to coconut cultivation as well. Mr. Thomas said that the CPCRI has developed a technology to extract virgin coconut oil from fresh coconut kernels.
It has a high value product and has export potential. If this latest technology is used, broken coconut need not be dried to make copra.
New technology
Additionally, the CPCRI has developed technology for making crispy chips from coconut.
He said that 'kole roga' (fruit rot disease) and 'haladi roga' (yellow leaf disease) were the two main diseases affecting arecanut plantations.
The former could be cured. But there was no cure for yellow leaf disease now.
But the CPCRI is now conducting an experiment to find out if tissue-cultured arecanut palms could withstand the yellow leaf disease.
He said that the government had been cautioning farmers against expanding area under arecanut both in traditional and non-traditional areas.
The CPCRI was firm in this recommendation even now.

For that, they could thank 24-year-old catching prospect Ryan Lavarnway, who hit his first two major league homers in his first career start behind the plate Tuesday night against the Baltimore Orioles.
And still, he had to make a critical defensive play in the ninth inning to lift the Red Sox to an 8-7 victory that kept them tied for the wild-card lead with the Tampa Bay Rays, 5-2 winners over the New York Yankees at Tropicana Field.
"He played his (butt) off," manager Terry Francona said. "That was one of the more exciting things to watch, and we've seen a lot of interesting things here over the years. That was right near the top."
Lavarnway played only because catchers Jarrod Saltalamacchia (bruised collarbone) and Jason Varitek (bruised knee) could not. And so, the Red Sox were left with Lavarnway, their top catching prospect who entered with only 30 career at-bats.
"It feels like I could wear the jersey with pride, especially a little bit more now that I've helped out and am contributing," Lavarnway said. "That's what I wanted to do when I got here. I didn't want to just have a September call-up that was meaningless. I'm glad I could help."
After Jacoby Ellsbury's two-run homer gave the Red Sox a 2-1 lead, Lavarnway came to the plate in the fourth inning and flailed at a 94 mph fastball from Orioles rookie lefty Zach Britton. But he got another heater and shot a laser into the left field seats, stretching the lead to 5-1.
In the eighth, Lavarnway added a solo shot against lefty reliever Zach Phillips to stretch the margin to 8-4, and the Red Sox needed every bit of breathing room, especially after struggling setup man Daniel Bard gave up two runs in the eighth.
Lavarnway's biggest play came in the ninth with closer Jonathan Papelbon on the mound. With the tying run on base and one out, Matt Wieters hit a dribbler down the first base line. Lavarnway chased it, and as he fell to his knees, made a throw to first to secure an out.
"I looked at Pap to see if he was going to get it or not," Lavarnway said. "The look he gave me was, 'You'd better field this ball.'"
Said Saltalamacchia, "That's one of the toughest plays. You're going to first base. You're in an awkward position to throw. That play right there put us in a situation where we're looking good still."

LOS ANGELES—Authorities say a prison bus accident near a downtown Los Angeles jail has caused several minor injuries.
Los Angeles County sheriff's officials say the bus, carrying two deputies and 38 inmates, got into a minor traffic collision around noon Wednesday near the Men's Central Jail.
The bus was driven back to the jail, where paramedics examined occupants who complained of pain.
Television reports showed at least two men strapped to backboards but deputies say there are no major injuries.

Medieval Life - Types of Castle
Bodiam Castle East Sussex England UK, by WyrdLight.com.
After their successful invasion and conquest of England, the Normans began a period of castle building that was to last right through the medieval period. Although castles had been built in England since the time of the Romans, they had never been built with such speed or across such a wide area.
This map shows the number of Norman castles built during the reign of William the Conqueror (1066-1087)
Within an Existing Roman Fortress
The earliest castles built by the Normans were either constructed within an existing Roman Fort or were Motte and Bailey castles. These were soon replaced by Stone Keep castles as they offered better protection from attack. Concentric castles developed during the 12th and 13th Centuries and were virtually impossible to conquer.
Pevensey castle in East Sussex is an example of a Norman Castle built inside an existing Roman Fort.
Motte and Bailey Castles
Motte and Bailiey castles were the earliest form of castles built completely from scratch by the Normans. As their name suggests they had two parts the Motte and the Bailey.
The Motte was a large hill made of earth on which was built a wooden keep or lookout. The outer edge was then surrounded with a large wooden fence called a palisade.
The Bailey was separated from the Motte by a wooden bridge that could be removed if the Bailey was occupied by enemies. The Bailey was the part of the castle where people lived and animals were kept. A large castle might have more than one Bailey.
To give added protection to the castle, both the Motte and Bailey would be surrounded by a ditch, sometimes filled with water. A drawbridge was used for access to the castle.
Stone Keep Castle
This type of castle soon replaced the Motte and Bailey castles as it offered a better form of defence. A stone keep was the central feature, with thick walls and few windows. Entrance to the keep was by stone steps leading to the first floor. The kitchens were situated on the ground floor while living quarters were on the upper floors.
The first keeps were rectangular in shape but later ones were often circular. The Stone Keep would be surrounded by a thick stone wall containing turrets for lookouts.
The Bailey was now the area outside the keep but within the outer walls and shelter for animals or craft workshops might be built against the walls. The entire castle might be surrounded by a ditch or moat and entrance to the castle was by drawbridge.
Concentric Castles
The Concentric castle was developed in the 12th and 13th Centuries and offered the best protection against attack.
The main feature of the concentric castle is its walls. An inner wall built of thick stone with turrets positioned at intervals is then surrounded by an equally thick but lower stone wall. The walls are built at different levels so that archers on the inner walls can fire over the archers on the outer walls.
The space between the two walls was known as the 'death hole' for being trapped within the walls would almost certainly result in death for the attacker. The entire castle was then often surrounded with a moat and entry would be across a drawbridge.

Free Skin Cancer Screenings at Atrium Medical Center
Middletown, Ohio, Thursday, May 7, 2009 – In recognition of Skin Cancer Detection and Prevention Month, Atrium Medical Center will host free skin cancer screenings on Wednesday, May 20, from 8 a.m. to noon. The screenings will take place in the Heart Failure Center located in the Professional Building at Atrium Medical Center. Appointments are required and can be scheduled by calling (513) 424-7231.
Skin cancer is the most common of all cancers, accounting for nearly half of all cancer cases in the United States. According to the American Cancer Society (ACS), this year more than one million people in the United States will be diagnosed with skin cancer. The majority of these people will be diagnosed with nonmelanoma (basal or squamous cell) skin cancer, the less invasive and deadly of the two main forms of skin cancer. And ACS estimates that nearly 60,000 people will be diagnosed with melanoma, the skin cancer responsible for the majority of skin cancer deaths. Regardless of the type of skin cancer, early detection and prompt treatment usually means close to a 100 percent chance of survival.
Skin cancer screenings take approximately five minutes and involve a head-to-toe skin assessment during which Jennifer Ridge, MD, looks for suspicious areas, such as discolored or misshapen moles. People with possible skin cancer or precancerous conditions will be referred either to their family physician or to a dermatologist for further tests.

We are all lottery winners. These last few months have found me in conversations with friends and family discussing our good fortune. It did not happen once or twice, and each time it did happen the group agreed that each one of us had won the lottery. We have the good fortune to have either been born in the US or have come to make the US our home. Traveling brings this perspective into great clarity.
I have just returned from Greece where I was able to introduce George to his great aunts, uncles, and extended group of cousins. For our family, the trip was extraordinary. Not only did we spend lots of time with family but we also got away. My first cousin, who I consider to be like an older brother, gave us his house down in the olive groves and rolling hills of Messinia. It is an area of Greece in the southwestern part of Peloponnese that was just what we all needed. It is along the Ionian Sea and the region reminded me of a Napa Valley on the Ionian.
Upon our departure from Athens, I flew back home and Laura and George headed to Ladakh, again. When they return home in a few weeks, they will be accompanied by Chuskit, George's Ladakhi sister. We are paying it forward. I am of the mind that success does not arrive in a vacuum. People along the way help each of us. After losing my father, I had many people help me put my life back together and Laura was helped at an early age, too. We are able to help a young woman realize her dreams and we are grateful to have this opportunity.
Just as each of you help our patients at The Valley Hospital and Valley Home Care. What is different, however, is that your support saves people's lives. The Simulation Training with Noelle and her "family" of simulation dolls has resulted in outcomes that have all of us at Valley incredulous over its importance. A short time ago, we completed a simulation for Operating Room codes – when a patient's life is in danger. Recently, there was a real-life situation that had been simulated with staff and the feedback from staff and physicians who were involved was that everyone performed like "clockwork" and that the treatment and teamwork were seamless. The patient's life was saved. With each passing day, we see that simulation training for highly dangerous situations that occur very infrequently is critical for the lives of our patients. Progress has begun to fund the Simulation Lab, we have a long way to go on the Simulation Lab needs and our entire case.
As a reminder, the Foundation aims to raise $10 million during 2014 for
This year the Valley Hospital Foundation will also participate in #GivingTuesday. What is #GivingTuesday, you ask? You have heard of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. #GivingTuesday caps off those three days with a philanthropic message as we enter the holiday season the Tuesday after Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Charities, families, businesses, community centers, and students around the world come together for one common purpose to celebrate generosity and to give towards their favorite charities. This year will be the third year we celebrate #GivingTuesday, and I hope that you will consider paying it forward just a little bit more this year.
It is good to be a lottery winner. Thank you.
With appreciation.

George is getting a sister…
Sort of.
Did that get your attention? Lots of change.
Very early in the morning on 1 May, we learned that one of the students from the school in India had received her US student visa. She will be living with us for two years, and Laura has arranged a position for her at a dental clinic in Ladakh upon her graduation from high school here. And, I'm hoping that we will be able to find volunteer opportunities for her at Valley. Dr. Ganepola has already begun to compile research projects for her! Meanwhile, George is excited but wary about having a 17-year-old girl in the house. Fortunately, George (and Laura) have spent the past two summers together, and they know each other well.
While he and his mother will be returning to Ladakh, India this summer, George is mostly excited to visit Greece, a country with which he identifies deeply. He is keen on visiting Olympus, the Parthenon, and Delphi, and I am eager to visit all of my aunts, uncles, and cousins. As a child, I spent every other summer there and nearly all of my time was whiled away swimming in the blue waters of the Gulf of Corinth.
As for traveling on the Foundation side of things, this newsletter will travel onto the web. There has always been a vision for a blog, and it looks like we will be putting this on our newly redesigned Valley Hospital Foundation website. We are excited about moving our web presence into a more contemporary architecture. For donors, you can register with our site and create your own profile, which will allow you to see your own giving history and create your own customizable reports. If the website were not enough of a change, I have begun my own Foundation twitter feed. (Full disclosure: I love twitter and was an early twitter adopter.) Nonetheless, if you would like to follow me or check in on what is going on, I am @VHF_Kozaitis.
There is more change at the foundation, too.
Back in the fall, the Foundation Board advised us to develop a 2014 Case for Support. We worked on it all fall and into the first quarter of this calendar year. It arrived a number of weeks ago, and we think that the end result is an effective tool for us. For the rest of the year, we will be focusing our attention on raising $10 million for the following critical projects at Valley:
These are all great needs across the Valley Health System, and creating a case for support will also be an important exercise that we will go through annually. Developing a annual plan will allow us to articulate our needs to you and our friends as we talk to everyone throughout the year. If you would like copy of the Case, please click here. We'd love to share with you. Email me. Call me. Heck, tweet at me!
Wishing everyone a terrific spring and summer.
Anastasios KozaitisPresident
Would you believe it if I told you that with this issue of inside valley, we begin year five of my chatty epistolary?
Yes, indeed, a nickel of time has elapsed. You all deserve gold medals for putting up with me and my stories about my son and any other ethereal thought that captured my whimsy on the day I typed. It is hard for me to fathom that George was five years old when we started this. Now, at 10 years of age, he's the ultimate tween: his interests are Legos and electric guitar. He is turning into a little rocker, and Jimi Hendrix plays these days on an infinite loop in our house.
Since you last heard from me, our corner of the world hosted the Super Bowl and we have had one of the longest deep freezes in memory. The warmest day this winter was probably the day of the big game, which is another example proving Mother Nature loves the National Football League.
All kidding aside, we ended the year on an upswing, and I have to applaud my colleagues in the Foundation. As you might imagine, we set our internal goals at the start of 2013, and as we entered the fourth quarter of 2013, we were way behind like many of the US speed skaters in Sochi this past week. The chasm we faced was challenging, to say the least. My colleagues kept their focus on finishing strong, and we achieved our goals much like the Chinese speed skater who won after the three skaters crashed in front of her!
In 2013, we received more than 5,500 gifts from our community. I thank you all for your generous support. There were so many wonderfully meaningful gifts that we received throughout the year, and there is one that I would like to take a moment to bring to your attention. In November, we accepted a transformative gift of $5 million to help us create the Michael R. Luckow Heart Center, which will be located in Valley's new physician office building at 1200 E. Ridgewood Avenue. In this new center, which is slated to open in 2015, Valley will bring together cardiologists, state-of-the-art cardiac imaging, and screening services. It will co-locate many of Valley's best and brightest to prevent heart disease.
Michael R. Luckow was the godson and nephew of Robert and Audrey Luckow, the cousin of Stefanie Luckow, and the son of Michael and Janet Luckow and was tragically lost to heart disease at the age of 44. The Michael R. Luckow Heart Center will be a loving and fitting tribute, and it will be a powerful affirmation of his life for the three boys and wife who survive him. While I've talked a lot about George's adventures here in this space, I don't think that I've told you that I too was once a young man who survived a loving dad taken too early from heart disease. The Luckow Family Foundation's gift in memory of Michael is just perfect, and I cannot thank them enough for their exemplary philanthropic leadership.
You are all leaders and visionaries. Again, I thank you for your commitment to Valley in 2013. Yet, somehow, as I type, it's mid-February 2014. We're experiencing the next in a line of countless, silly-named, disruptive storms. When did every storm start getting named? Is this really necessary? Sochi needs this cold and snow more than we do. We've had our share…
So, what about 2014? During the fall, the Foundation Board of Trustees tasked Foundation staff to put together a 2014 case for support, and we set to doing so. The case was approved in December, and we have begun our ascent.
Soon, you will start to hear about a team of cardiac research scientists whom we would like to recruit to Valley. If you haven't heard enough about research, you will hear more as we look to further develop our biorepository that currently stores more than 20,000 highly valuable and important tissues and blood samples. There are new needs for Valley's Arrhythmia Institute, which houses some the best electrophsyiologists in the world. As you may know, electrophysiology is the highly specific cardiologic specialty that deals with the electronic impulses of the heart. You will hear about a high-tech Simulation Lab that will train nurses and physicians on mannequins that actually talk, breathe, bleed, seize and even cry; the mommy mannequin even gives birth. These dolls respond to the countless procedures that are given to them by the training teams. I just saw a news story about US Air Force teams and first responders learning critical care and transport medicine in a simulation lab, and we will have one here at Valley. We will also look to help the hospital purchase the latest in magnetic resonance imaging technology; Valley is looking to buy a 3.0 T MRI machine that will be a critical piece of equipment for the Neuroscience Institute that we are creating. And, finally, we will also raise money for Valley Home Care's Rehab Services. Valley Home Care is bringing important rehab to the home with fall prevention training; Functional Freedom (a living well program for Parkinsons and other movement diseases); and Steps Ahead (home rehab for total joint replacement).
As you can see, there is much to do for so many needs. Valley is a not-for-profit hospital, and it is the hospital that it is today because of the generous support all of you provide it. We are able to keep abreast of the latest technology and programs because of your commitment to philanthropy. I look forward to our climb up the 2014 mountain, but before we do, I say thank you one last time for making 2013 such a success.

He talks as if we haven't already had a mix of revenues and cuts including $600B in new revenue Republicans agreed to just two months ago. The issue is what portion of the remaining deal must be revenue to constitute the kind of balance Obama says is desirable. As I've pointed out daily, the President defined balance as 3:1. That's also what Simpson-Bowles 2.0 recommends. But the Senate deal, which the President is pushing, would put us at 2:1. It would also allow the President to avoid making the tough cuts to entitlements the sequester was specifically designed to force.

Cultural holidays in Spain
Writing a paragraph about cultural holidays in Spain just wouldn't be right without mentioning Alhambra. Here are the basics: a palace, fortress and garden at once, this incredible site is one of Spain's most visited. It overlooks the southern city of Granada from a high plateau, and was constructed in the 9th century. Later grafted into a palace by Nasrid sultans during the early 14th century, today it's a truly unmissable site: it's surely one of the greatest samples of Moorish architecture and design in the world. Of course, Spain has more to it than the Alhambra: from Barcelona's Sagrada Familia, to the Roman aqueduct of Segovia.

Not only did the rug arrive promptly but it was just like the picture and description and of very good quality. I will definitely come to Overstock when I need any other area rugs.
The green matches my sofa and chairs. Lime Green! Guests stop and say WOW!!
Rug was as described. It's thick enough to add some real cushioning which is nice. Have only had it a few months. It is still shedding which is annoying, but does not seem to be degrading the quality. I hope it stops shedding and continues to hold up.
This is the best looking carpet as far as design and colors. But materials used shade way too much! I have had the carpet for 3 weeks and have cleaned it almost every other day without success. I have vacuumed, used bloom to clean without success it still full of furs shading off. I have really given up and don't know how to clean it anymore and are thinking of returning my old carpet back.

There is a myth that the City is not coordinating construction projects on our streets.
In reality, nothing could be further from the truth.
In fact, the city has a strong coordination effort in place before any work ever takes place on the street. Outside factors such as the shortened construction season, work by outside agencies and the sheer volume of the work is more responsible for congestion we face every day.
One thing is certain: The city is facing an unprecedented amount of construction on our roads and it's causing frustration for drivers. The city is updating a significant amount of its aging infrastructure including roads, bridges and watermains. Many of this infrastructure is reaching the end its service life and needs to be replaced. The work is critical.
And the City isn't the only organization performing construction work in Toronto. Private companies are busy, too. The City is experiencing significant growth – especially in the downtown core – and this has led to a demand for increased services. A lot of the work that you see taking place is private construction which also adds stress to our roads as lanes of traffic are taken away to accommodate this work.
And it doesn't end there. Organizations such as Enbridge, Toronto Hydro and telecom companies continue to add to their infrastructure. Since most of their infrastructure is buried under our roads, they need to cut into the roads to do their work. This often means lane closures and more pressure on our transportation routes.
In all, the pressure on our road capacity is intense.
But, instead of simply allowing work to take place wherever and whenever, the City has taken steps to plan the work in order to minimize disruption wherever possible.
Five years ago, the City established the Major Capital Infrastructure Coordination (MCIC) division that acts as a coordinating body for all groups – not just city agencies – that perform construction work in the city. MCIC connects with all groups to make sure that all long-tem work is coordinated and that all agencies are aware what other organizations are doing. Also, this coordination often enables work from different groups to be bundled together, avoiding having one organization going back to the same street and tearing it up again.
But the coordination doesn't end there. Because of the sheer volume of the work and unforeseen circumstances at the time a project is scheduled, coordination is also required when work is ready to take place.
Here's an example: A recent sinkhole has closed a road that runs parallel to the road where road reconstruction is planned to take place. Transportation Services staff would review the situation and make changes as necessary to make sure that work on the two roads is not done at the same time.
In this way, the City is able to get work done and at the same time, managing disruptions to the public wherever possible.
The city also looks at other ways to keep traffic moving effectively while all of this work occurs including accelerating construction projects when possible, implementing signal timing changes on parallel roads and limiting short-term work on nearby roads.
Despite all of these efforts, it is impossible to plan for the unexpected — emergency work. Sometimes a safety issue will result in a lane of traffic being closed temporarily. Unfortunately, delays are often inevitable in this case.
Clearly, the city faces a number of challenges in terms of getting all of the critical work done and accommodating other interests who want to use our roadways. And, while the city is making every possible effort to minimize disruptions, there is no denying that delays will occur. However, the city continues to take significant steps toward getting this work done effectively through its short term and long term coordination as it enhances our transportation network now and in the future.

A 6'4" 210 lbs athlete impressed on both sides of the football in High School and now will take his skills to to Columbus for college.
Alex Stump switched his commitment from Kentucky to Ohio State last Sunday. Stump is the kind of outside receiver that Urban Meyer has been trying to pick up ever since he came to the Buckeyes. He offers great size and speed, coming from a perennial power house in Lakewood St Edwards. His hands make him a great possession receiver similar to other in state receivers the Buckeyes have seen in the past. Brian Hartline and Dane Sanzenbacher are examples of players that are similar to Stump.
Even after experiencing a 21 to 14 loss to a Cincinnati team recently, the victorious Alex Stump was given excellent news. The renowned wide receiver earned a scholarship from Ohio State. However, for right now he has remained a verbal commitment to Kentucky. Some of Alex Stump's other offers come from a variety of states ranging from West Virginia to Nebraska.
AJ Alexander is a highly touted prospect from Virginia who had the luxury of choosing from over twenty football scholarship offers for his college career. The #53-ranked wide receiver captured the interest of Miami, Rutgers, Purdue, Penn State, Indiana, Illinois, Minnesota, Boston, and many more thanks to his impressive stats.
The front runners in the AJ Alexander derby were the Cornhuskers, the Badgers, and the Buckeyes. Most people predicted that he would end up with Wisconsin but he chose eventually Ohio State. There he will be able to utilize his talents in different facets of the game. He has the ability to play any position and it will be interesting how the coaches use his skills.
Mickey Mitchell is set play for the Buckeyes again this season. Mitchell is a four-star 2015 forward who comes from Plano,Texas and he has recently made a second commitment to the Ohio State Basketball team.
Mickey initially signed-up for the Buckeyes last August, but left last month after his brother Mike, a footballer for Ohio State accepted a transfer to Texas Tech.
Mickey Mitchell announced his latest commitment to the Buckeyes on his public Twitter account.
Mickey Mitchell has changed his mind in committing to play basketball for the Ohio State Buckeyes. Brother of Mike Mitchell who was linebacker for the Buckeyes, Mickey Mitchell seemed sure to leave the Buckeyes when his brother exited Ohio State football after his freshman year. Thad Matta, coach at Ohio State, had felt Mickey Mitchell would stay through 2015.
Mickey Mitchell was ranked 20th by Scout.com for 2015. He announced the change from the Buckeyes via Twitter. Brother Mike signed with Texas Tech this year. That college is closer to the Mitchells' home near Dallas, Texas.
Miami's safety Carlton Davis expressed his desire to play for Ohio State: Ohio State received great news after losing a top prospect to an injury. This news gave them some necessary relief after this very unfortunate incident.Carlton Davis expressed his desire to play for Ohio State on 560 AM in Miami. Ryan Bartow from 247Sports and Scout's Corey Bender were the first reporters to reveal this outstanding news. Marc Gilver confirmed Davis' statements after speaking with him off the air. This talented high school player made a surprising commitment to the Ohio State Buckeyes team.
Kansas tight end Josh Moore has become the latest player to be wooed by Urban Meyer, and has pledged to join Ohio State's impressive 2015 recruiting class.
Moore gave his verbal commitment to the scarlet and gray at the school's Friday Night Lights event, confirming reports in recruiting circles that he was a long time Buckeyes lean. He was seen speaking at length with head coach Urban Meyer early on in the camp, and Tim May of the Columbus Dispatch later confirmed that Moore had taken the step of verbally committing to the program.
Out of Nordonia High School in Macedonia Ohio, Denzel Ward is one of the top cornerbacks in the country and recently committed to play college football with Urban Meyer and the Ohio State Buckeye football team. A physical corner that isn't afraid to make a play on a running back. He can recover on a receiver and change direction without issue. Still a little light for college football but has plenty of time before he arrives in Columbus for the 2015 season.

(modern gfx cards do have command queues and similar magic stuff). So meanwhile I will use standard APIs (SDL & co),and I'm looking forward to support for hw-accelerated surfaces in windowed mode within SDL. Sam, is this planned for the upcoming versions ? AFAIK, the DRI kernel stuff allows one to share a gfx card (using low-level access methods) in a lockup-safe fashion among several apps, including the X server. But I'm not informed what the actual status of the DRI APIs looks like. Anyway, thank you again guys for all your infos. cheers, Benno. > > See ya, > -Sam Lantinga, Lead Programmer, Loki Entertainment Software

Mt. Jackson, Va. (WHSV) -- Virginia State Police ruled that 62-year-old Delmar Lee Oscar's death was an accident.
An employee at a Liberty truck stop said he pulled in like he did two to three times a day, but Wednesday it was different.
Police said Oscar's body was found laying beneath a 2005 Mack truck after he got underneath it to do some repairs.
Lisa Lucas who is a cashier at the truck stop said she saw the man nicknamed "Ducky" on Wednesday shortly before it happened.
"We were told that his brake lines froze on his truck, so he pulled off to try to unfreeze them and somehow the truck brakes didn't lock to where it would keep it from rolling backwards and it rolled on top of him," said Lucas.
Oscar died at the scene. His body wasn't noticed for hours.
"He wasn't answering the phone for either his daughter or his wife," said Lucas.
That's when his wife began panicking.
"She called the company that he works for, because he hadn't come home yet and normally he's home by a certain time everyday," said Lucas.
It's an accident one truck driver says others should try to avoid this time of year when brakes often freeze
"My truck weighs 17,500 pounds and if that rolls over on top of you it's going to kill you," said Chris Whitaker, who is a truck driver.
"Stay out from under the vehicle completely, if you have to call, even if it cost money. You have to call somebody to come fix them. It's better than losing your life," said Whitaker.
Many who knew Oscar described him as a nice man.

Catastropic Failure and now speakers will only work if I say I have 7.
Had the worst crash I have ever experienced or heard of. After 2 weeks of trying to save it I was forced to do an install with the loss of all data (you want to re-play 2000 levels of Angry Birds) and software.
Reinstalled Creative Sound Blaster for X-Fi Xtreme Audio and all the pertinent upgrades. I have a Logisys 2 speaker system.
The only way I can get sound is to tell setup I have 7 speakers.
Has anyone ever run into this problem?
|My System Specs
|03 Apr 2013
Did the Integrated audio (on the motherboard) happen to get enabled in the BIOS? That would conflict with the SoundBlaster and hard to tell what problems would arise. If it is enabled, disable it and see if that helps. You can only have one default audio playback device.
Also, any Intel motherboard chipset drivers. Win 7 should have installed them but I've seen cases where they didn't or didn't install the correct ones. One of the prime things the chipset drivers do is correctly identify all the devices on or attached to the motherboard.
BTW, I'm a Florida Retiree.
|My System Specs
|04 Apr 2013
Thanks for replying.
I checked and both were listed as enabled.
Disabled the system sound, but problem persists.
|My System Specs
|04 Apr 2013
Did you actually disable the Integrated audio in the BIOS. If not, that is the first step.
|My System Specs
|04 Apr 2013
Ah...hmmm....BIOS is such a scary group of letters.
Would it be possible for you to give me a step by step?
|My System Specs
|04 Apr 2013
When you first boot up, you press a key to enter the BIOS. Its usually on the screen. Could be F2, could be "Del", etc. Inside the BIOS look for the listing for on-board audio. Sometimes its referred to as Legacy audio. Not all BIOS are the same so I can't give you exactly.
Looking at the ASUS manual. The "Advanced" section of the BIOS is where the "on board devices configuration" is.
In that section, High Definition Audio will be listed, disable this.
|My System Specs
|05 Apr 2013
Well. I did it. So proud.
Disabled it in BIOS and still have the problem.
I do now have an ASUS screen on boot that makes it a lot easier to get into BIOS.
Have no idea where it came from.
|My System Specs
|05 Apr 2013
Now that you have the integrated audio out of the way. Reinstall the SoundBlaster drivers and see if you can now set it to the proper speaker configuration.
The Integrated will (or has the potential) to cause conflicts with other sound cards with varying results.
|My System Specs
|05 Apr 2013
What a difference.
So glad I have REVO Uninstaller. My jaw dropped when I saw how much unneeded (for me) software Creative had installed. Even with REVO it took hours and then I ran Ccleaner and finally did a search for anything leftover. Must have picked up 30-40% of disk space.
Reinstalled driver and control panel only. As soon as I rebooted I could tell the difference. Checked the control panel and I am back to a 2 speaker configuration.
!. Problem fixed.
2. Picked up a lot of disk space.
3. Have an ASUS flash screen on boot which allows easy access to so much. Still don't know where it came from.
Many thanks fireberd.

Great, glad I could offer a little help. Us retirees have to help each other.
BTW, I lived in Nashville for about a year in eary 70's. Even worked at a music store on Lower Broadway across from Tootsie's.
