We are announcing a Joomla! Pizza, Bugs and Fun event scheduled for Saturday, September 15, 2012. The event is global for virtual participants with local venues wherever they are organized. Joomla 3 is scheduled to be released on September 27th, so hopefully this Bug Squish will play a big part in squashing the remaining bugs.
This is also a birthday celebration for Joomla! so it's actually a Pizza Bugs Birthday Cake and Fun event. Be sure to add birthday cake, ice cream or stroopwafels to your party!
See the section General Instructions below for instructions.
This wiki will be used as the central resource for coordinating efforts and accumulating results from this event.
The twitter hash tag is #jpbf12.
We have set up a Skype chat for all attendees of the PBF. Skype is invitation only and you are all invited. This is the same chat we used for the PBF in March. To get an invitation, email your Skype name to Andy Tarr (email@example.com). To make sure you can get in, get your invitation and log in before the day of the PBF. This Skype chat will be in English, but other languages can set up their own chat groups as well.
These instructions may change as we get closer to the event.
Helpful documentation:
You are free to work on any aspect of the documentation that takes your fancy, but here are some suggestions for stuff that really needs some love and attention:
We are offering pizza (or any comparable locally popular main course) and soda for pre-registered groups. Be sure to also get some birthday cake to celebrate Joomla's birthday. We are not setting a specific maximum, but please don't go crazy with it. Get enough so there's plenty for everyone, but not a week's worth of pizza and soda leftovers for everyone. Contact Andrea Tarr (firstname.lastname@example.com) before the event to register and get details.
If you want to get people together and have a venue to share, please add it below. Share as much as possible details like exact location, url for more information about the venue, ways to register, date and time the venue is available etc.
If you set up a location please send contact information to Andy Tarr (email@example.com). Feel free to contact her with any questions.

Q: Where is the code for Joomla?
A: The current Joomla code can be found either on Joomlacode or GitHub.
Q: Which one is 3.0?
A: On GitHub, it is the master branch. For SVN, it is the main trunk.
Q: Any known issues with JForge and Chrome on Windows?
A: It have been seen that browsing the JForge tracker, Chrome may ask for a missing plugin (windows media player). No workaround for this is yet known.
Q: How do I apply a Git pull request as an SVN Patch?
A: Git & SVN are two different ways of doing version control for software. Joomla is in a transition stage of moving from SVN to Git. Many of the patches will be SVN patches which you'll find in the files tab at the bottom of the tracker. Some trackers will have Git "pull requests" instead.
These git pull requests can still usually be applied like SVN patches if you only have SVN. Take the URL of the pull request, add ".patch" to the end of it and use that as a URL to the patch.
Many of this pull requests will also have extra folders on the internal file names like a/ and b/.
In Eclipse, to remove those automatically, change Ignore Leading Path Name Segments to 1.

I wanted really dense quilting on this one to fill all the white space. I gave Emily free-reign and just told her to do her thing and I think it's pretty amazing!!
You can either link up a blog post or link directly to a Flickr picture (here's how to do that.) Or, if you just want to share via Instagram, that's awesome too. Just use the hashtag #virtualquiltingbee. You can also see creations in various states of progress in the Virtual Quilting Bee Flickr group.
And here's the fun part! Thanks to some generous sponsors, there are some fun prizes. The link-up system will be good for the next week - through March 10. Then I'm going to let you vote for your top three favorite (I think. I'm kind of a newbie at this link-up thing. If it works to vote, we'll do it. If not, I'll just pick all prize-winners randomly.) Three of the prizes will go to top vote get-ers. The rest will be chosen randomly from this link up and from the Instagram #virtualquiltingbee hashtag. Sound good??
And here are our sponsors and prizes!
WINNER: #21 Katelyn
Prize package from Diary of a Quilter: WINNER: #22 Jenifer
Can't wait to see what you've made!! Remember, just one link per project below.
Post edit: Huge thanks to everyone who shared!! It was so fun to see everyone's different versions. They were all beautiful! The WINNERS are posted above. I couldn't figure out how the voting worked because I'm pathetic like that, so all winners were chosen using Radom.org. An email will be sent to each winner.

Students who work as much as 48 hours during the spring, may count this time as one week of regular work and draw wages as soon as they have spent one week (Instead of two) on the farm in the summer. Sixty students have registered for the summer for periods of a month or longer. At least eighty student workers, the committee estlmatea, can be used to advantage FRESHMEN CLEARED $250 FOR THE SERVICE CORPS FRIDAY Expenses Less Than For Either 1918's or 1919's Freshman Shows The Freshman entertainment netted the Service Corps S250 last Friday. Ex- penses were well under $100, less than for either 1918's or 1919's Freshman shows, which cost $243 and $367, respectively. Gate receipts were clear gain, for costs were met by class dues. Costume expenses were $35 at most, mainly for the flowers and Egyptian choruses, and for the scarlet moth. The Bolshevik and soldiers' and sailors' cos- tumes cost nothing. STUNT PARTY ADDS LOCAL COLOR TO BATES WEEK-END Stunts, giving a vivid portrayal of summer life at Bates House, followed a talk by Miss Virginia Deems on the prac- tical side of the work there, at the annual Bates Party in the gym last Saturday night. There was dancing to the music of the new Freshman Orchestra. $11 were raised by the sale of refreshments. Miss Deems, who for two years was the head of Bates, may direct it again this summer. She told of many adven- tures of the college workers at Ix>ng Branch, especially during one fortnight two years ago when 48 children were there, without their mothers; at that time, she said, the college girls could work out all their pet theories, and as a result one girl in one afternoon scrubbed sixteen children. In the first of the two stunts the elopement of Butty the Butterick Beaut (H. Butterfleld '18) with the faithful Claude (M. Foot '21) was enacted. �The prelude to the match furnished an op- portunity for the singing of "The Heart of the City That Has No Heart" by a typical Bates group of factory girls. H.

By this scheme the War Council election would precede the Association elections to avoid the du- plication of office that took place this year. According to the tentative plan, the five i nominees receiving the highest number of votes would be candidates, their names would be posted and the election would take place not less than three days later. The chairman would assume office at the first War Council meeting after the elec- tion. Three plans for the reorganization of the War Council will be presented to the mass meeting. (11 That the organization remain the same. (21 That the present organization have the addition of a rep- resentative elected from each class, and have Its chairman elected by a mass meet- ing. (3) That student representation in the organization consist of two members elected from each class and a chairman elected by a mass meeting. A.

Combination Chemotherapy and Surgery in Treating Young Patients With Wilms Tumor

- How to Read a Study Record
This phase III clinical trial is studying how well combination chemotherapy and surgery work in treating young patients with Bilateral Wilms tumor and children who are a special risk for forming tumors in both kidneys. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells. Giving combination chemotherapy before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed. Giving it after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery.

Ages Eligible for Study: | up to 29 Years |
Genders Eligible for Study: | Both |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion criteria:
Patients must be < 30 years old at the time of initial diagnosis. Patients must be previously enrolled on AREN03B2 and confirmed to be eligible for AREN0534.
The patient must have one of the following conditions to be eligible for AREN0534:
- Synchronous bilateral Wilms tumors*; or
- Unilateral Wilms tumor and aniridia, Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome, idiopathic hemihypertrophy, Simpson-Golabi-Behmel-Syndrome, Denys-Drash Syndrome or other associated genitourinary anomalies associated with bilateral Wilms tumor, such as hypospadias and undescended testis (to be eligible, these patients must not undergo any nephrectomy at diagnosis; Note-horseshoe kidney is not associated with bilateral Wilms tumor and these patients should go on the appropriate unilateral Wilms tumor study); or
- Multicentric Wilms tumor (any age) (to be eligible, these patients must not undergo any nephrectomy at diagnosis); or
- Unilateral Wilms tumor with contralateral nephrogenic rest(s) (any size) in a child under one year of age (to be eligible, these patients must not undergo any nephrectomy at diagnosis); or
- Diffuse hyperplastic perilobar nephroblastomatosis (unilateral or bilateral) defined by central radiological review; or
- Wilms tumor arising in a solitary kidney (patients with metachronous Wilms tumor are not eligible).
(*) It is often difficult to distinguish Wilms tumors from nephrogenic rests based on imaging studies and percutaneous biopsies. The AREN0534 study uses the guideline that Wilms tumor with a single lesion 1 cm or greater in the contralateral kidney or multiple lesions (of any size) in the contralateral kidney should be treated on the synchronous bilateral Wilms tumor stratum. Patients with an isolated lesion less than 1 cm in the contralateral kidney should be treated on the appropriate study for unilateral Wilms tumor OR on the unilateral Wilms tumor/contralateral nephrogenic rest stratum of this study if they have not undergone nephrectomy and are under one year of age.
Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) results which are used in the unilateral Wilms tumor studies are not a requirement for enrollment on AREN0534. Blood samples can be submitted but will not be used to direct AREN0534 therapy.

I don't know about anyone else but here lately, I've been getting some strange activity while visiting this site. I've had IE sputter then crash on me 2 or 3 times. Then about 3 hours ago, I was here typing a message, and I could tell something was going on in the background... Windows would go into "thinking" mode for several seconds at a time, during which I would lose control. Then I got a message "Adobe needs to update" and I clicked yes. Well, it was a malware Trojan (FRAUDPACK) and it just took me the last 3 hours to wipe it off my hard drive and restore full functionality. It is one NASTY virus, let me tell you.
BV visitors and users, beware!
John - this hasn't been happening to me on any other sites. I'm wondering if you recently banned someone who is trying to corrupt your system and attack your users.

text: 5 Best fighting game I have played PS3 and VitaSiScott | 24/11/2012 | See all SiScott's reviews (98)Top 100 Games Reviewer Top 100 Mobile Reviewer As a complete and absolute NOOB with fighting games, i was a bit worried I would buy this and end up disliking it like most other fighting games I have tried over the years.But I had always wanted to play Super Smash Bro's, but was put off by the fact it is on Wii.Now PS3 has its own version and it is a lot of fun and very accessible for noobs and experts a like. A lot of online reviews have made out that the control mechanism is overly complicated, but I fail to see why? I have had no issues playing both offline and online with this game and the controls are very tight, easy to use accurate.Good----- The visuals are amazing on both Vita and PS3.- The locations you fight in are a live, beautiful, well animated, varied, layered and full of PS3 throw-backs.- As mentioned above, the controls seem easy to me - unsure of why expert reviewers have said otherwise?- The man story can be completed for each character in little under 15 minutes each making replay very nice.- The difficulty levels seem spot on to me with easy being easy and hardest given a challenge, but nothing mind-numbing.- The selection of characters is very impressive with each one playing very differently and feeling different.- You can customise your characters skin, intro and outro videos and sound effects.- You can customise your profile.- There is a tone to unlock in regards to skins, icons and backgrounds, etc etc.- Your characters all level up which give a nice sense of progression.- The online gaming was stable and fun (although the vita version takes longer to get started).- YOU GET THE PS3 AND VITA version for the price of ONE!!- Your character progress on the PS3 is translated to your VITA also... (required internet connection), so you can move between both and progress will continue.Bad---- I found one bug on the Vita version where the Vita will go into sleep mode when trying to load an offline or online game because the Vita doesn't seem to recognize the game is still active. It doesn't ruin anything, but you have to press the power button to wake it up and get back into the game.- Some characters are NOT very useful. I love using Kratos, but personally found Nathan Drake to be completely useless when aiming his gun or using his super level 1.NOTE----The only difference I have found between the PS3 and Vita are the graphics slightly and the menu system layout. The layout on the Vita does all the same things, but is is blueish where as the PS3 is greenish. I personally prefer the layout of the Vita menu system better.-------------This is the first time I have continued to play a fighting game and not become bored after finishing the story mode. A very impressive, easy to pick up and play, and get into game.

by Woody Sherman The design beckons Fujifilm tapped in to a powerful place in the global shutterbug psyche when they introduced their "X" series of retro-influenced cameras in 2011. This entry, the 16-megapixel interchangeable-lens Fujifilm X-E1, stays firmly in that well-established design aesthetic, while offering some new technological features that make this camera even more of a value than its predecessors. Image quality and the resolution to evaluate it The XE-1 is still using a "rangefinder" body style, similar to Fujifilm's other X-Series cameras, and it hosts a well-regarded APS-C "X-Trans" sensor. What that means for you is that the camera is primed to generate exceptional image quality. The on-board OLED electronic viewfinder features an ultra-high resolution 2.36-million dots, so you'll be able to evaluate that image quality in the field in real time. Should you wish show others what you've captured, a 460K-dot LCD display stands ready on the camera body's back. The Fujifilm XE-1 has classic styling and cutting-edge features Ready when you are Got just enough time to grab the camera for your son's first attempt at diving into the water? The X-E1 has a quick start mode that gets you ready to shoot in less than a second. A wide sensitivity range (ISO) makes this camera a perfect choice when you only have the light that's available, and when you need a little extra support, there's an on-board flash standing by. Video chops and lens choice Full 1080p HD video is standard, of course, and stereo audio gives your recordings a realistic sense of space. An external microphone input means you can add a specialized microphone, like a clip-on lavalier or a shotgun mic, for better, more intelligible sound in your next feature production. And Fujifilm has equipped this camera with a nicely appointed 18-55mm f/2.8-4 lens, which is more than up to your everyday photographic challenges. Plus, the family of Fujifilm X-mount lenses is growing regularly, with two new ones announced at the same time this camera was released. Product Highlights:16.3-megapixel effective recordingAPS-C size X-Trans CMOS image sensor (23.6 X 15.6 mm) for minimal moiré and aliasing while maintaining high resolutionFujifilm X-Mount compatible with Fujifilm XF lensesincludes Fujifilm XF 18-55mm f2.8-4 OIS image-stabilized zoom lens (27-84mm equivalent)high-def movie mode: 1920 x 1080 pixels, 1280 x 720 pixels (24 frames/sec.) with stereo soundIndividual movies cannot exceed 29 minutes in lengthelectronic OLED viewfinder with built-in diopter features ultra-high 2.36-million dot resolution2.8" LCD screen (460,000 dot resolution)high-speed contrast autofocus6 frames-per-second full-resolution still capturehot shoe for optional Fujifilm EF-20 or EF-42 flashesthreaded shutter button compatible with mechanical shutter release cablesdurable, lightweight magnesium alloy bodywarranty: 1 yearOur 60-day money-back guaranteeExposure Modes and Controls:continuous shooting mode: selectable 3 or 6 frames per secondshutter speed range: 30-1/4,000 seconds, bulb (up to 60 minutes), control is lockablesensitivity or ISO (film speed equivalent) range: 100-25,600program auto, shutter-priority, aperture-priority, and manual exposure modesauto exposure, film simulation, dynamic range and ISO sensitivity bracketing (up to 3 frames for each)File Formats and Storage:image storage modes: JPEG, RAW, and RAW+JPEGtop JPEG/RAW resolution (pixels): 4,896 x 3,264 (3:2); 4,896 x 2,760 (16:9)H.264 MOV movie files up to 1920 x 1080 resolution at 24 frames per second with stereo sounduses optional SD, SDHC, and SDXC memory cardsConnections and Dimensions:high-speed USB interfacemini HDMI output (cable not included)5-7/16"W x 3"H x 1-7/8"Dweight (including battery and memory card): 12.3 oz.Supplied Accessories:rechargeable NP-W126 lithium ion batterybattery charger BC-W126shoulder strapUSB cablesoftware CD-ROMbody capmanual Want a camera you can grow into? Try a compact system camera. These digital cameras combine the creative options of a DSLR with portability that's more like that of a point-and-shoot. Their automatic modes will help you take striking pictures from day one without having to be an expert. However, like DSLRs, compact system cameras (CSCs) have interchangeable lenses, and advanced control and processing. You can explore these features for even better results as you take time to learn more about the hobby. Cameras in this class have large image sensors for beautifully detailed pictures, but their mirrorless design means the camera bodies and matching lenses can be smaller, lighter, and more portable great for snapping memorable pics when you're on the move.
Fujifilm XE-1Zoom Lens Kit Written By Joanne, Nesconset, NY on Friday, July 26, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Love this camera!! Fantastic jpegs OOC. Love the menu system and the ergonomics. Kit lens is super sharp and has OIS. Pros: Image quality, size and handling Cons: None so far!
Fuji XE1 with 18-55mm Kit lens and 35mm 1.4 Written By Spinningfox, New York, NY on Tuesday, July 16, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Good size, wish it can be a bit smaller like the upcoming XM1 and comes with the brown color; but I like to have EVF. Pros: Excellent still image quality; lots of manual control Cons: AF a bit slow, no video record button
Excellence Written By Fins, Hershey PA on Friday, July 12, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is really a great camera, though not necessarily for all types of photography. If you are shooting action or even young kids (who tend to never sit still) there are better options than the X-E1 in my option (E-M5; DSLR). But beyond that, getting this image quality, build quality and overall style all rolled in to one camera and zoom lens is quite exceptional. Pros: image quality; build; style' great lens lineup Cons: shooting action
Fuji XE-1 Written By Truths2k05, Miami,Fl on Thursday, June 27, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The Fuji XE-1 is a retro looking camera that behaves very much like an old school manual camera. It takes the most beautiful pictures of any camera I have owned. It has an incredible depth of field that I have not seen in other cameras. The lenses are very high quality as well. Best camera I have ever owned. Pros: Picture quality. Cons: None
Fuji X-E1 Written By bc, Rochester NY on Tuesday, April 16, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Already the owner of a Fuji XPro 1, I was pleasantly surpised by the combination X-E 1 + 18-55 mm zoom. The body is as pleasant to use as the X Pro 1, 99 % of the functions, buttons are the same. Due to the lack of optical viewfinder the XE1 is smaller, more compact, with a better screen resolution and finally a diopter-adjustment for the view-finder (brutally lacking on the X Pro 1, especially for a camera of that quality and price-what were they thinking?). Because of its compacity (and the lack of an available grip for it, as for the the X Pro 1) the XE1 is less stable to hold (but more compact). As for the the 18-55 mm zoom, it is excellent a deserves 5 stars: the fastest focusing lens in the Fuji X-system range, extremely sharp, and with image-stabilization/vibration reduction (to speak Canon/Nikon lingoes). Makes me want to throw my 18 and 35 mm away! Pros: Body: Compacity, quality of viwfinder and produced images. [panorama function not as good as Sony's though-same for X Pro 1] Zoom: EXCELLENT. Sharp, fast focusing, Image Stabilization. Cons: Body: needs a better grip. Improve automatic panorama capacity (Sony could do it). Lens: NONE!!
Very nice camera Written By Anonymous, NYC on Friday, March 22, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I was debating between the XE1 and the NEX6. I finally decided to get the XE1. XE1 gives you cleaner high ISO shots. Plus the XE1 gives you all the manual controls right on the body of the camera, unlike the NEX6 where you have to dig through menus just to change the shutter speed. About the AF in low light conditions, I find if you enlarge the focus area the AF becomes better. The XE1 is a camera person's camera. Pros: Outstanding image quality Cons: AF can be slow in low light conditions
SIMPLY, MORE BEAUTIFUL Written By Anonymous, Pittsburgh,PA on Sunday, March 10, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I'm old !!! I started 'fiddling' with photography around 1970 and have owned both Minolta and Nikon gear. When the digital revolution began I ended the "money pit" called amateur photography and never looked back. However, I recently retired and began doing some research on digital photography. The least, I figured, there is no film with only 24 exposures to buy and I could always delete my marginal pic's. Maybe(I thought) I could finally teach myself photography without having to go to the bank for a loan. So the search began with the regular manufacturers like Nikon, Canon etc..but they all looked like the old film cameras-- bulky and awkward. I wanted none of that. Then I happened upon the mirrorless revolution and the Fuji X-E1. This is a camera of old . Built like a tank and the quality of the pic's make even me look good. I cannot stop shooting and experimenting and learning..I'm formally addicted to digital and Fuji and I haven't even begun the post processing work. Well, Fuji X-E1 you have let me know what I'll be doing for the remainder of my life Pros: Quality of images creativity tremendous telephone supprt from Fuji Sexy Cons: ABSOLUTELY NONE
THE BEST CAMERA " I" HAVE EVER OWNED!!!!!! Written By R.M. SELTZER, GARDEN CITY, LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK on Friday, December 21, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I HAVE BEEN INVOLVED WITH PHOTOGRAPHY SINCE 1963. I CONSIDER MYSELF AN ADVANCED PHOTOGRAPHER. FOR THE PAST 6 YEARS I HAVE OWNED THE PENTAX K-10, KX, KR, K-5 AND THE K-30. THE PENTAX SYSTEM ALLOWS YOU TO USE MUCH POST PROCESSING BUILT INTO THEIR CAMERAS. RECENTLY I WAS LOOKING AT MY OLDER PHOTOS TAKEN WITH FILM AND THOUGHT I MIGHT GO BACK TO A FILM CAMERA. WELL, FUJIFILM MADE THE X-E1, WHICH ALLOWS YOU TO UTILIZE THEIR FILMS DIGITALLY. I FELT THIS WAS THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS [FILM GONE DIGITAL]. I IMMEDIATELY BOUGHT ONE FROM CRUTCHFIELD AND COULD NOT BE HAPPIER. THE FEEL OF THIS CAMERA IS FANTASTIC, AND BEING ABLE TO CHOOSE WHAT "FILM" TO USE IS AWESOME. SINCE I WAS ACCUSTOMED TO USING DIGITAL CAMERAS, I WAS ABLE TO TEACH MYSELF 90% OF THE CAMERA WITHOUT REVERTING TO THE HANDBOOK,WHICH I WILL USE AS NEEDED. I GAVE UP THE ART FILTERS AND IN CAMERA PROCESSING, BUT IT IS WELL WORTH IT. ONE FEATURE THAT IS NOT LISTED AS SUCH IS THE ABILITY TO BEND THE FLASH BACKWARDS FOR BOUNCE FLASH. THAT WORKS EXTREMELY WELL. LET ME SAY THAT IF YOU LOVED USING FILM, BUT WANT TO GO DIGITAL BUY THIS CAMERA. Pros: NEW TYPE OF SENSOR. NO ALIASING FILTER IN FRONT. EVERYTHING ELSE ABOUT THIS CAMERA IS ALSO POSITIVE. WHAT A PHOTOGRAPHIC TOOL! Cons: NONE
Best camera I ever owned! Written By BA, New Jersey on Saturday, December 08, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I did a lot of research about this camera before "taking the plunge," but nothing could prepare me for actually holding it in my hands and using it. There are certain qualities about products that defy description. I already have a Fujifilm X100, and S5 Pro, so I am familiar with the company and its products. The X-E1 is just a joy to use. I can see it will become my main camera. I am already thinking about selling the others. The few little deficiencies of this camera that have been described by many, or really very minor to me, and can quickly be learned and compensated for. The camera is light and unobtrusive. It exudes quality. And, most importantly, the images it makes are superb; second to none! It may not be the most appropriate camera for someone shooting sports, but I don't shoot sports. I plan to use it as an all around travel camera, and for documenting the events of my life. I never have been a fan of video, but this camera may change that. I like that there is a stereo jack for an off camera microphone. The collection of lenses will be growing soon, and so there will soon be a lens for almost every need. Right now, I am using the 18-55mm zoom, which together with the lens stabilization, bright lens, and excellent auto ISO performance, allow me to take just about any kind of picture that I am used to taking. The only thing I really wish for now is a macro lens that will go 1:1.

Stella Trunks
Gotta have another!
I love this lidded basket! I live in a small home with minimal storage and this basket is perfect for storage while looking perfect in my living room! It's functional as well as very nice looking!
December 25, 2013
This basket is beautiful.
I use this basket to store craft supplies in my living room. It's a beautiful basket and it's nice that you can close it to hide the mess!

Love this trunk
This is exactly what I was looking for. They are perfect sitting on top of my guest bedroom storage cabinets. The loop and button that holds the lid closed is hard to fasten, that's why I didn't give it 5 stars. But that does not affect the beautiful functionality of this trunk. And they are affordable. I am so pleased with this purchase! Thank you

Viral pneumonia is inflammation (irritation and swelling) of the lungs due to infection with a virus.
Pneumonia - viral; "Walking pneumonia" - viral
Viral pneumonia is more likely to occur in young children and older adults. This is because their bodies have a harder time fighting off the virus than people with a strong immune system.
Viral pneumonia is most often caused by one of several viruses:
Serious viral pneumonia is more likely to happen in those with a weakened immune system, such as:
Symptoms of viral pneumonia often begin slowly and may not be severe at first.
The most common symptoms of pneumonia are:
Other symptoms include:
The doctor will perform a physical exam.
If the doctor thinks you have pneumonia, you will also have a chest x-ray . This is because the physical exam may not be able to tell pneumonia from acute bronchitis or other respiratory infections.
Depending on how severe your symptoms are, other tests may be done, including:
Antibiotics do not treat viral pneumonia. Antiviral medication only works against influenza pneumonia and some pneumonias caused by the herpes family of viruses. Antiviral drugs may be tried, especially if the infection is caught early.
Treatment may also involve:
A hospital stay may be needed to prevent dehydration and to help with breathing if the infection is serious.
People are more likely to be admitted to the hospital if they:
However, many people can be treated at home. You can take these steps at home:
Most cases of viral pneumonia are mild and get better without treatment within 1 to 3 weeks. Some cases are more serious and require a hospital stay.
More serious infections can result in respiratory failure, liver failure, and heart failure. Sometimes, bacterial infections occur during or just after viral pneumonia, which may lead to more serious forms of pneumonia.
Call your doctor if symptoms of viral pneumonia develop or your condition gets worse after starting to improve.
Wash your hands often, especially after blowing your nose, going to the bathroom, diapering a baby, and before eating or preparing food.
Do not smoke. Tobacco damages your lungs' ability to ward off infection.
Vaccines may help prevent pneumonia in children, the elderly, and people with diabetes, asthma, emphysema , HIV, cancer, or other chronic conditions.
If your immune system is weak, stay away from crowds. Ask visitors who have a cold to wear a mask.

Campus vandalism leads to growing administration concerns
October 29, 2013 Leave a comment
Samantha Cooper
Staff Writer
Within the past month Goucher College has experienced a sudden rush of vandalism incidents. Many
students have seen the destruction, which has included five damaged ceiling tiles and graffiti in a bathroom. One of the doors leading to the Health Center was also cracked, a wall in Welsh was kicked in, and a Ping-Pong table was damaged. The total cost of the damage – including three damaged cars (two were "keyed" and one had its tires slashed) and a broken vending machine – is estimated to be $3,150.

Friday, April 12, 2013
NEW WILMINGTON, Pa. - Ann Marie Bayma, a Westminster College sophomore international business and accounting major, and Violet Shriver, a sophomore accounting major, were named winners of the 2013 David W. Edward Entrepreneurship Scholarship competition.
The competition, conducted by Westminster's Department of Economics and Business and supported by funding from the Edward Trust in Youngstown, Ohio, requires students to prepare and present a business plan depicting the creation of a new or substantially improved business, product, service, or some combination of the three. The competition culminated March 27 with presentations by the students of their business plans to a panel of judges.
Bayma earned first place in the competition. Her plan outlined a business specializing in the manufacture and sale of rain boots. The high quality rubber "rain" boot featured built in magnets with removable magnetic shells in various colors and patterns. The primary goal of No Slip Boots was to create quality non-slip rain boots at the lowest possible price. The ability to purchase one pair of boots and change the magnetic shell to match attire would make the purchase especially appealing to budget conscious college students walking in poor weather conditions.
Bayma is a daughter of Edmund and Rose Bayma of Warren, Ohio, and a graduate of Howland High School.
Shriver, who earned second place, created a health and environmentally conscious nail polish. G.G.'s Healthy Decree vowed to be toxic chemical free and additionally offer a special recycling incentive to consumers. This company hoped to reduce the long-term effects of harsh products used in salons and to reduce the amount of hazardous chemicals disposed in landfills.
Shriver is a daughter of Scott and Kate Shriver of Pittsburgh and a graduate of North Allegheny High School.
The judges included: Kenneth J. Romig, vice president of finance at Westminster College; Thomas L. Johnston, service manager at Packer and Thomas, Certified Public Accountants, and director of the New Castle Volunteer Income Tax Assistance Program (VITA); and Philip G. Petraglia `83, vice president and chief financial officer of Pittsburgh Life Science Greenhouse.
The competition was coordinated by Dr. Gail Miller, Westminster professor of business, and David Smith, Westminster associate professor of accounting.
Contact Miller at (724) 946-7168 (firstname.lastname@example.com) or Smith at (724) 946-7161 (email@example.com) for additional information.

Setting limits; Teaching children; Punishment
Frustration, anger, and occasional acting-out are behaviors seen in every child. Whether you are strict or more laid-back and easy-going, it is important to find a strategy of discipline that works for your family. The following guidelines may help you shape your approach.
1) Always consider your child's age when setting limits or punishing. It is unfair to expect more than a child can do. For example, a 2 or 3 year old cannot control the impulse to touch things. Instead of instructing them not to touch, remove fragile objects from reach. If you send your toddler to the bedroom for more than 5 minutes, the child may totally forget the reason due to a short attention span. See: Time out
2) Be clear. A child should understand what behavior needs to change. Rather than saying, "Your room is messy," tell the child what needs to be picked up or cleaned. The first time you show the behavior that needs to change, explain what the punishment will be the next time it happens. Do not keep defending yourself once you have stated what you want.
3) Be consistent. Do not change rules or punishments at random. Punishments will obviously change as the child gets older, so make sure you explain why the rules change. If one caregiver accepts certain behaviors but another caregiver punishes for the same behavior, the child is likely to become confused. Eventually, the child may learn to play one adult against the other.
4) Reward good behavior. Complement the child on a new behavior that you have been working to improve. Reward them with more attention for desired behaviors. Save toys, gifts, or money for changes that you and the child have been working on for a longer period of time.
5) Be calm, friendly, and firm. A child may become angry, tearful or sad, or may start a tantrum. The more even-handed and controlled your behavior is, the more likely your children will pattern their behavior after yours. If you spank or hit, you are showing them that it is acceptable to solve problems with violence.
Allow your children to express their feelings, but at the same time, try and help them to channel anger and frustration away from violent or aggressive behavior. Here are some suggestions on dealing with temper tantrums:
If the tantrum involves hitting, biting, or other harmful behavior, do not ignore it. However, do not overreact. Instead, tell the child immediately and clearly that the behavior will not be tolerated. Move the child away for a few minutes.
Remember that a child cannot understand complicated explanations, so do not attempt to reason. Give the punishment immediately. If you wait too long the child will not connect the punishment with the behavior.

studio e architects, san diego
John Sheehan and Eric Naslund, AIA, of Studio E Architects in San Diego, set out to do something different with this 16-unit affordable community in Escondido, Calif. "We wanted to find a way to mix people and cars," says Naslund. "We didn't want it to be car-dominated like typical developments." They didn't miss a trick, and the judges took notice. "Every detail is well thought out," said one. "The nature of the street is wonderful."
Faced with a deep, narrow site perpendicular to a main road, the pair used the traditional bungalow courts of Southern California and the European mews concept as their models. They lined up two opposing rows of attached units along a central lane. Then they interspersed the housing units with a variety of shared elements--a central meeting building, a children's playground, and a community garden, for example--designed to ensure that pedestrians, not cars, dominate the lane. Because the developer had asked Sheehan and Naslund to create floor plans that could easily be replicated in other locations, the two-, three-, and four-bedroom plans are unfussy. But they still manage to supply occupants with small rear patios that provide a measure of private outdoor space.

Hepatic vein obstruction is a blockage of the hepatic vein, which carries blood away from the liver.
Budd-Chiari syndrome; Hepatic veno-occlusive disease
Hepatic vein obstruction prevents blood from flowing out of the liver and back to the heart. This blockage can cause liver damage. Obstruction of this vein can be caused by a tumor or growth pressing on the vessel, or by a clot in the vessel (hepatic vein thrombosis).
Most often, it is caused by conditions that make blood clots more likely to form, including:
Hepatic vein obstruction is the most common cause of Budd-Chiari syndrome.
One of the signs is swelling of the abdomen from fluid buildup (ascites ). The liver is often swollen and tender.
Tests include:
Treatment varies, depending on the cause of the blockage.
Your doctor may recommend the following medicines:
