The 44th Annual ESA Easterns Are Underway
After torrential rain and gale force winds forced postponement Sunday—the ESA Easterns got started this morning in wild but contestable overhead chunks at the recently revamped Jeannette's Pier in Nags Head, North Carolina, to the relief of competitors and contest directors that thought this event would never happen.
The day before leaving my hometown of St. Augustine, Florida, I attended an "Easterns practice surf" for two-dozen local groms that all gathered to run mock heats and surf with their hero—past Easterns champ Gabe Kling.
According to Gabe, "the Easterns were my favorite event of the year growing up. A bunch of friends would get together and we'd rent a big house in the Outer Banks, and it seemed like the waves were good every time. A couple of years Slater showed up, and as groms we'd just lose it, surfing with him. No matter what, win or lose, I really enjoyed Hatteras. It's cool to watch this next generation of kids getting just as excited"
Today, these young kids feel the same way surfing with Gabe as Gabe did Slater, so when he gives advice they are all ears.
Said up and coming Oldest City Menehune Evan Brownell, "Gabe rips. And he's such a cool guy. Surfing with him helps me a lot. I'm really happy the contest is happening."
Will Gabe's advice help Evan at this event? We'll find out Wednesday, when the Youth divisions kick off. Today it was all about the Adults, and in the rough surf they were taking some serious poundings. In fact, the contest was called off mid afternoon after a few women's competitors were sucked into the pier. Fortunately all involved came out unscathed.
According to ESA North/Central Florida director Ryan Marks, no matter the conditions it's great to see the contest up and running.
"Big props go out to Dare County and all of the officials, it's important that the ESA has an economic influence on the Outer Banks, and since it wasn't possible to run in Hatteras at least we were able to pull it together and run here in town. It's hard to please everyone, and there was some thought of postponing until we could run at the original location, but what if another Hurricane had rolled through? It's really important that we run this contest, and great to see it happening. Plus, we are getting a good swell and with the Outer Banks pro going on here this week the kids will be exposed to some great talent."
With plenty of swell and light winds in the forecast—things are finally coming to together nicely for the Easterns after a month of adversity. –Zander Morton

According to Natural Resources and Tourism minister Ezekiel Maige, the government is engaged in intensive review of the national tourism policy in order to help Tanzania earn more from its natural resources.
He says part of the thrust of the new drive is on revising the revenue dimension of existing policy and vastly improving institutional systems.
The aim is to enhance awareness, patriotism, efficiency and accountability at the ministerial level and the level of agencies under the ministry – and hence the idea of transforming the Tanzania Tourist Board into an autonomous agency.
Minister Maige has listed a litany of hurdles the twin natural resources and tourism sectors are grappling with, among them media errors and lack of incentives for investors.
The thrust the minister has elaborated on is not that new, as officials of his level are always expected to live by constantly re-examining their mission and performance.
This is largely because this is in part what usually wins national governments much-needed credit from institutions such as the World Bank.
To be fair to the minister, this is not to suggest that all policy review is futile, although he rightly admits that trying to earn the country more revenue from its natural resources can be difficult indeed.
In this regard, we hope minister Maige remembers that some years ago policy review efforts resulted in a 500 per cent hike in tourist hunting fees – and literally backfired.
Now that hunting blocks allocation has been scientifically reviewed and implemented and there are standing orders on the use of forest resources, perhaps the policy reviews should now focus on other issues.
The government would be well advised to leave tourism advertising in the hands of capable home-based operators as well as private ones with global networks and therefore more likely do a better job.
The unpleasant truth is that most potential foreign tourists will have greater faith in foreign-based advertising agencies, wrongly believing that locally based ones merely engage in self-praise. That, unfortunately, is the bizarre nature of the tourism industry in an environment of cutthroat competition.
In these days when resource allocation conflicts are endemic in the public sector, much as we know of the existence of serious or chronic deficiencies, there is plenty to be desired in efficiency levels in agencies like Tanzania National Parks, Ngorongoro Conservation Area Authority and those overseeing forest management.
Unlike many other high-profile public servants, minister Maige has been candid enough to touch on weak links in the chain that he believes must be replaced or repaired for things to work properly once more or even better.
As we all know, tourism is a multi-million-dollar business and it is not easy for the government to singlehandedly spruce it up comprehensively enough and therefore make it serve the nation as expected.
The minister's dream is that Tanzania's natural resources will soon be so well developed as to translate into genuinely handsome earnings spent on efforts to make the lives of all our people better. It is costly, yes, but necessary.
We share his dream, and pray that the entire nation will contribute to its realisation, for we have looked on helplessly for too long as the wind blew the wrong way.

Hi, welcome to GTA Wiki! Thanks for your edit to the Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars page.
Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything! -- A-Dust (talk) 23:31, 18 March 2009
I don't know if you're just confused about cars, but.. The GTA IV Premier resembles the Cobalt and Toyota Carolla more than anything. That Thing There 02:51, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

Hey, thanks for helping me out with that idiot spazzing over whether or not the Huntley is a Tahoe. He sure over uses exclamation points, thats for sure! Lets hope he shuts up and leaves it alone now. Thanks again! Gorden Frohman 18:12, January 17, 2011 (UTC)
Hi, i'm just wondering why your editing here and not the original grand theft wiki which left wikia, this wiki is pretty much abandoned and is doing really bad, if i was you i'd just leave it and join the better one [[1]]. Tom (Talk) 23:19, January 17, 2011 (UTC)
They made the right decision in there case, they let the community decide which was the right thing to do and they have many valdi reasons for moving to an independant site run entirely by them. This wiki is basicly people who have no idea about editing making random pages about irrelevent stuff and there is no one really to stop them, take my advince and go to the new one its much better. Tom (Talk) 16:34, January 18, 2011 (UTC)
Here. --Rigas Papadopoulos • Talk • Deeds • 16:58, January 18, 2011 (UTC)
Dealing with people
Hey, I appreciate your will to help out, but "wiping" out someone's user page is not good etiquette and can be considered vandalism. You have to deal with the person by discussing in the person's talk page instead.--spaceeinstein 21:22, January 18, 2011 (UTC)
- Re:
- I don't think this site have policies and rules written down anymore. Just be courteous, discuss with people, and correct mistakes. The majority of people come to contribute, not to vandalize. If there are disagreements, discuss. They will take notice if they truly want to improve the page. It's easy to revert clear vandalized edits anyway.--spaceeinstein 02:46, January 24, 2011 (UTC)
Re: Thanks
You're welcome.
Anyways, please visit my blog post "Vehicles in GTA V" and feel free to comment. Haruhi Suzumiya 08:22, January 26, 2011 (UTC)
I thought you'd moved over to the better grand theft auto wiki, but mainly i've changed ANAT0LY's block so he cannot edit the Mafia wiki until 2020. Tom (Talk) 21:49, February 1, 2011 (UTC)
United1999 is at it again!
He wrote a message on my page forcing me to apologize for taking down his spam pages, and naturally I won't, coz what I'm doing is right. Now he's reviving the pages he created against me. Is there anyway you can ban him and/or block his IP address? Haruhi Suzumiya 10:11, February 22, 2011 (UTC)
umm 27
you are 27 and u play gta. you might want to get active. no offense
We all know you are TRYING to help out with GTA wiki, but "Wiping" someones page is considered vandalism.
you personaly say you want to prevent it but you just dont. Try working it out on thier talk page instead of vandalising their page. --123yyy 22:50, March 27, 2011 (UTC)
Im glad you understand, Spaceeinstien was concerned too. You could just ask goybers for a promotion.
Listen owen, you cant create pages that tell people what to do on GTA Wiki. We appreciate that you are trying to help, but it wont get you a promotion. Only admins and V.I.P wikia members have the ability to do this. P.S. no typical user on GTA Wiki will follow your "rules". There is no such a thing as "paecekeeper". Its an unathurized position created by you. This will not be accepted on GTA wiki what so ever. You can NOT create your own rules and or jobs. This is not civil, therefore GTA Wiki will be deleting all of the false info. Thank you for your understanding Af1105 02:00, April 8, 2011 (UTC)
Its not good to tell people what to do. A typical user can not tell other Users what to do. "These rules must be followed at all times". I understand you are trying to help but many users will not follow your "Rules" and just laugh. First: you did not ask permission from an admin or mananger. If you do not ask for permission to do this, it is anathurized and the page will be deleted. Thank you for your time Af1105 22:08, April 8, 2011 (UTC)
- 1, this is not a way to talk to an admin. I have full rights to delete your profile. And i will do so.
BTW, theres no such thing as a blacklist on Wikia. Af1105 22:11, April 8, 2011 (UTC)
You are due to be deleted.............duchebag
First, you are making up "Blacklist". Spaceeinstin and A-Dust will delete your profile in the next 24 hours for vandalism. Happy editing!...............not Af1105 22:40, April 8, 2011 (UTC)
About United(insert year here)
United1999, United2012, etc. I think they're the same persons. I thought GTW's rules don't allow this?
Also, I'll try to stop swearing at spammers and other disagreeable people in this wiki, if that's what you want. Haruhi Suzumiya 10:02, April 12, 2011 (UTC)
Hi Owen, i'm an admin on here now so if you have any problems or ideas you can run them by me. Tom Talk 19:14, April 15, 2011 (UTC)
Thanks :) Tom Talk 20:48, April 15, 2011 (UTC)
The rules link you sent me doesn't exist. Tom Talk 21:28, April 18, 2011 (UTC)
Ok, there are obviously no rules so i have made a list of my own please give your honest opinion;
- No vandalism, hacking or spamming.
- No inappropriate images or videos.
- No intimidating, aggressive or threatening behaviour towards other users.
- No discrimination or abuse towards members or other people.
- Do not post copyright text or images.
- No sock-puppetry or user impersonation.
- No CAPS LOCK, you don't need to use capital letters to get a point across.
- Unless its obvious vandalism assume the user is trying to contribute positively to this Wiki (if you spot any vandalism please contact an active Admin or other staff).
- No fan fiction, this is not a Fanon wiki, if you wish to make up fictional stories about GTA use the Fanon Wiki.
- Always sign your comments with 4 tildes (~) / do not edit other people's talk pages without their consent, an exception may be made for formatting errors which disrupt the flow of the talk page.
Not every rule is mentioned in the above list; some are obvious and should not need to be mentioned.
Tom Talk 21:38, April 18, 2011 (UTC)
Hate to say it but there's already an A-Team wiki, here. Tom Talk 21:43, April 18, 2011 (UTC)
However there hasn't been an active admin on there for a long time so you could just adopt that wiki. Tom Talk 21:50, April 18, 2011 (UTC)
What? Tom Talk 17:59, April 21, 2011 (UTC)
Hi Martin, do you want to be an admin? Tom Talk 13:56, April 22, 2011 (UTC)
I already requested that and he accepted so he, like you, is in the process of becoming an admin. Tom Talk 16:59, April 22, 2011 (UTC)
Do you mean I should provide a reason when deleting a page? Ok no problem :), I just delete and don't provide the reason.WikisEditor 10:46, May 13, 2011 (UTC)
Don't talk to Gboyers, he broke wikia rules and he has to be punished for that, i don't agree with this to be honest but you can't argue with the staff, just stay out of this, nothing you say or do will make a difference. Tom Talk 00:53, May 28, 2011 (UTC)
Another thing, who talked to Dopp about it? Tom Talk 00:57, May 28, 2011 (UTC)
Don't talk to Dopp, it will be fine, he may not have admin rights but he'll still be treated as one, you don't need to get involved. Tom Talk 01:03, May 28, 2011 (UTC)
Thats no problem, WikisEditor wasn't a bureaucrat, he was just an admin. Tom Talk 01:20, May 28, 2011 (UTC)
I'd already blocked him :) Tom Talk 09:58, May 28, 2011 (UTC)
One more thing, your not a patroller, you don't have rollback rights. Tom Talk 10:06, May 28, 2011 (UTC)
Erm... well thats already a rule, its a wikia rule and breaking that rule is why WikisEditor had his admin rights taken from him. Tom Talk 14:25, May 29, 2011 (UTC)
I know, we'll have to watch him. Tom Talk 14:56, May 30, 2011 (UTC)
Its fine, i probably over reacted a bit but i'm a bit fed up of so many users trying to get involved in things that doesn't concern them, not just this wiki either, but i appreciate that you apologised, i just didn't think he needed another lecture on how he messed up. Tom Talk 12:45, May 31, 2011 (UTC)
RE: Admin
Maybe sometime soon but not right now, I don't think you'd be right to be the bureaucrat on this wiki, no offense. Tom Talk 17:56, June 2, 2011 (UTC)
- I think you'd make a good rollbacker. Dan the Man 1983 12:37, June 8, 2011 (UTC)
"since I wouldn't like to become an admin straight away", you wanted to become an admin, in fact you wanted to become a bureaucrat, I said I don't think you should be an admin on this wiki, Dan then said you could be a good patroller, it has nothing to do with the fact that you don't want to be an admin straight away, you do, don't lie. Tom Talk 14:42, June 8, 2011 (UTC)
- If you want to be a patroller make a request on the community noticeboard. Tom Talk 14:46, June 8, 2011 (UTC)
Huh? you left me a message saying you wanted to request to become a bureaucrat on this wiki, anyway if you want to be a patroller make a request on the community noticeboard. Tom Talk 14:54, June 8, 2011 (UTC)
- Any sane person would want to be Bureaucrat, aswell as an Admin. Dan the Man 1983 17:03, June 8, 2011 (UTC)
I guess you could but I'm not sure if people's decisions would change. Tom Talk 22:32, June 9, 2011 (UTC)
- Your best bet would be to knuckle down and do some editing and show that you're trustworthy with the tools and then re-apply in future. Dan the Man 1983 22:36, June 9, 2011 (UTC)
Neither of those pages where created by that user, please check the page history before accusing users of things, they used to be userboxes but after a template was deleted they became blank pages, the problem is now solved. Tom Talk 12:44, June 12, 2011 (UTC)
Hey, i did not create 600 GTA IV and 600 World War II, I just removed it from the catagory "userboxes". Pls take not of that and do not wrongly accuse me (I'm referring to your post on The Tom's talk page). Thanks GTANiKoTalk 04:56, June 25, 2011 (UTC)
Remember to vote on this :). Tom Talk 14:57, July 3, 2011 (UTC)
I mean vote on the thing which I linked to you, the thing below the swearing discussion. Tom Talk 18:22, July 3, 2011 (UTC)
How is it politically motivated? Tom Talk 17:18, July 7, 2011 (UTC)
Also there is already a page for myths in GTA San Andreas, in future before creating a page check that it doesn't already exist. Tom Talk 17:20, July 7, 2011 (UTC)
Owen, I deleted your vote on Chimpso's deadminship based on the fact that you clearly haven't any understanding of the actual issue. Voting is not and has never been a show of hands. If you have any rational, policy based reasons to oppose his demotion, you may feel free to vote. But when you say "he says he did nothing wrong and I believe him". That is not something people can have different opinions on. The rules say you may not advertise other sites, he advertised another site, he broke the rules, there is no room for discussion on that subject. And if you ever make a claim like "I believe this is politically motivated", you better back it up because otherwise I'll block you for personal attacks and troublemaking. McJeff (talk this way)/(stalk this way) 20:31, July 7, 2011 (UTC)
- all I am going to say is my vote stands and what i said was my opinion on both occasion so I am sorry you perceived them as personal attacks I just want to get along with you --Owen1983 16:16, July 8, 2011 (UTC)
- I'm glad you want to get along with me and I want to get along with you too. But that doesn't change the fact that your vote doesn't stand due to being ignorant and wrong. You are not allowed to claim Chimpso "did nothing wrong" just like you are not allowed to claim that 2+2=6. McJeff (talk this way)/(stalk this way) 16:20, July 8, 2011 (UTC)
From Bunny
Of course, I will. You never said anything that bad to him! And if he thinks he's gonna block you, I'll just take it off! Bunny J. (Talk) 16:32, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

- This article concerns the Emissary of the Prophets. For other meanings, please see Emissary (disambiguation).
The Emissary of the Prophets is a pivotal figure in the Bajoran religion, who according to prophecy will save Bajor by finding the Celestial Temple and speaking with the Prophets. The Emissary has the authority to perform several Bajoran ceremonies and blessings, and is often looked to by the people for guidance. The annual holiday of Ha'mara celebrates the arrival of the Emissary. (DS9: "Emissary", "Starship Down", et al)
In the earily 2330s the Prophets brought about the existance of Benjamin Sisko by possessing a woman named Sarah and having her bring about a child with Joseph Sisko. The resulting offspring was the pre-ordained Emissary of the Prophets.
The ancient texts concerning the Emissary say that the Prophets will "call him to them" and that they will "give him back his life." In 2369, Kai Opaka told Commander Benjamin Sisko after his arrival at Deep Space 9 that he was to be the Emissary, after reading his pagh. Opaka told Sisko that he must find the Celestial Temple, and warn the Prophets about the Cardassians. Shortly after, Sisko fulfilled the prophecies and became the Emissary by discovering the Bajoran wormhole and making contact with the beings within. During their contact, the Prophets helped him recover from the loss of his wife Jennifer Sisko at the Battle of Wolf 359, essentially "giving him back his life". ("Emissary")
As the Emissary, Sisko gained some much-needed legitimacy in his assignment to prepare Bajor for Federation membership. Although he was at first uncomfortable with being revered as a religious icon, he felt obliged to respect the Bajorans' beliefs, as did Starfleet. However, some Bajorans doubted the Prophets' choosing of a human as the Emissary, in particular Kai Winn Adami, who resented the fact that she must share the leadership of the Bajoran faith with an outsider and non-believer. She and Sisko would have an adversarial relationship, although she eventually begrudgingly admitted that he was the true Emissary. ("In the Hands of the Prophets", "Rapture")
For a brief time in 2372, Sisko willingly stepped aside when Akorem Laan emerged from the wormhole, having been transported two centuries into the future by the Prophets, and claimed himself to be the Emissary. The move was supported by Kai Winn, as Akorem was a native Bajoran and shared her orthodox beliefs. However, Akorem called for the reinstatement of the D'jarra caste system, which would have voided Bajor's application for Federation membership. An orb shadow experience and increased violence following Akorem's reforms prompted Sisko to challenge Akorem's claim to the title of Emissary. The two travelled into the wormhole, where the Prophets told them that "the Sisko" was their chosen Emissary, and that they sent Akorem into the future to remind him of that fact. ("Accession")
The role of Emissary took on a new, more crucial light in 2373, after Sisko received a series of pagh'tem'far, which allow him to discover the lost Bajoran city of B'hala. These visions also lead him to warn the Bajorans against accepting Federation membership, advice which would prove prophetic later that year when Bajor is spared from a Dominion invasion. The unearthing of B'hala would a year later yield an ancient stone tablet, bearing the inscription "Welcome Emissary." When Sisko approached the tablet, he received a vision which initiated the Reckoning, a cosmic duel between a Prophet and the Pah-wraith Kosst Amojan. The Emissary's purpose was to initiate this battle, as Sisko did when he shattered the tablet on Deep Space 9 (the "Gateway to the Celestial Temple") and released the beings inside. Sisko was willing to see the battle through to the end, but the battle was interrupted by Kai Winn. ("Rapture", "The Reckoning")
The next phase of the Emissary's path took place at the end of 2374, when the wormhole disappeared after Dukat released a Pah-wraith into the Orb of Contemplation. Promising to learn what had happened to them, Sisko returned to Earth and received a number of visions, leading him to find the Orb of the Emissary on the planet Tyree. The orb contained a Prophet who had once inhabited the body of Sarah Sisko, Benjamin Sisko's natural mother. From her, Sisko learned that his birth and role as the Emissary had been pre-ordained by the Prophets. When Sisko opened the Orb, the Prophet was released back into the Celestial Temple, where she cast out the malevolent being. ("Tears of the Prophets", "Image in the Sand", "Shadows and Symbols")
The Emissary's last and most difficult task came at the end of 2375. Dukat, who had became almost Sisko's antithesis through his connection with the Pah-wraiths, planned to release them from their prison inside the Fire Caves, an event which would unleash a new era of destruction. Disguising himself as a Bajoran named Anjohl Tennan, Dukat convinced Kai Winn to turn away from the Prophets and use her authority as kai to obtain the Book of the Kosst Amojan, the key to opening the Pah-wraiths' prison. Together, the two of them nearly succeeded, and the Pah-wraiths selected Dukat as their Emissary. However, Sisko was able to destroy the book by plunging it, himself, and Dukat into the flames, thus forever imprisoning the Pah-wraiths. As he was falling through the cave, Sisko was taken into the Celestial Temple to join the Prophets. The Emissary's task had been completed, though Sisko's own destiny was far from over.

- 1 cup diced rhubarb, from about 2 stalks
- 1 1/2 cups quartered strawberries
- 3/4 cup water
- 1 to 2 tablespoons sugar
- Leaves from 1 small bunch basil, small leaves reserved for garnish
- 1 bottle (750 ml) dry sparkling wine for every 5 drinks
In a medium saucepan, combine rhubarb, strawberries, water, and sugar over medium high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until fruit is tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, add large basil leaves, and let cool completely, about 20 minutes.
When cool, remove and discard basil leaves. Add remaining mixture to blender and blend on high speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Place 2 tablespoons mixture into each glass, add a small amount of sparkling wine to loosen purée, then fill glasses with sparkling wine. Garnish each glass with small basil leaves.

Kigoma-North legislator Kabwe Zitto smelt a rat in Parliament yesterday on annual tax submissions made to the government by large-scale mining companies in the country.
Contributing to the budget speech of the Prime Minister's Office, he said a report he had received recently showed that there were serious discrepancies in the submissions made by the firms in the 2008/09 financial year exposed by Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI), which audited them.
Zitto said there was a pressing need to audit the submissions made between 2000 and 2008 after EITI noted that the amount of money submitted in the fiscal year 20008/09 fell short of 20bn/-.
EITI is a coalition of governments, companies, civil society groups, investors and international organisations, which aims to strengthen governance by improving transparency and accountability.
Meanwhile, Zitto called upon the government to scrap tax exemptions on fuel to companies exploring for gas and oil in the country.
He also advised the government to direct increased levy on Kerosine to Rural Electrification Agency (REA) with a view to boost efforts geared to supply rural areas with power.
In the meantime, when contributing to the same budget estimates Prof David Mwakyusa (Rungwe West-CCM) called upon the government to form a probe commission to investigate into the root cause of boycotts in higher learning institutions.
"During the second term of the third phase government, the health sector experienced boycotts that prompted the government to expel some doctors, but when the fourth phase government assumed power in January 2006 it formed a commission to probe the matter," he said.
James Lembeli (Kahama-CCM) said students would continue complaining if the government delayed their allowances. "It will bring no sense if we continue blaming the students for staging demonstrations because almost everywhere in the world people are now demonstrating. The issue at hand now is to find a solution to the problem," Lembeli said.
Ubungo legislator John Mnyika told the House that he had received reports claiming that the University of Dodoma (Udom) administration had begun reinstating students on the basis of political ideology.
However, Education and Vocational Training minister Dr Shukuru Kawambwa refuted the claims. "I don't believe if that matter is handled that way," he said.

Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking Soda) for Kidney Stones
Sodium bicarbonate is commonly known as baking soda. For the treatment of kidney stones, it is available as a tablet.
How It Works
Sodium bicarbonate makes the urine less acidic, which makes uric acid kidney stones less likely.
Why It Is Used
Sodium bicarbonate may be used if you have had uric acid stones because you have too much acid in your urine.
How Well It Works
Sodium bicarbonate can prevent the formation of uric acid kidney stones and can help dissolve existing uric acid stones.
Side Effects
All medicines have side effects. But many people don't feel the side effects, or they are able to deal with them. Ask your pharmacist about the side effects of each medicine you take. Side effects are also listed in the information that comes with your medicine.
Here are some important things to think about:
- Usually the benefits of the medicine are more important than any minor side effects.
- Side effects may go away after you take the medicine for a while.
- If side effects still bother you and you wonder if you should keep taking the medicine, call your doctor. He or she may be able to lower your dose or change your medicine. Do not suddenly quit taking your medicine unless your doctor tells you to.
Call 911 or other emergency services right away if you have:
- Trouble breathing.
- Swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
Call your doctor if you have:
- Hives.
Common side effects of this medicine include:
- Fluid retention (edema).
See Drug Reference for a full list of side effects. (Drug Reference is not available in all systems.)
What To Think About
Sodium bicarbonate contains salt. If you are on a low-salt diet, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before you use this medicine.
Taking medicine
Medicine is one of the many tools your doctor has to treat a health problem. Taking medicine as your doctor suggests will improve your health and may prevent future problems. If you don't take your medicines properly, you may be putting your health (and perhaps your life) at risk.
There are many reasons why people have trouble taking their medicine. But in most cases, there is something you can do. For suggestions on how to work around common problems, see the topic Taking Medicines as Prescribed.
Advice for women
If you are pregnant, breast-feeding, or planning to get pregnant, do not use any medicines unless your doctor tells you to. Some medicines can harm your baby. This includes prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, herbs, and supplements. And make sure that all your doctors know that you are pregnant, breast-feeding, or planning to get pregnant.
You will have to check the acid level of your urine (pH) to keep the pH between 6.0 and 7.0. Kidney stones are more likely to form if the urine has a pH much lower than 6.0 or higher than 7.0.
Follow-up care is a key part of your treatment and safety. Be sure to make and go to all appointments, and call your doctor if you are having problems. It's also a good idea to know your test results and keep a list of the medicines you take.

Mr. Inconsistent
The Cubs faced Mr. Inconsistent on the wrong day. It's the story of Jason Marquis' on-again, off-again career. Really good when he's on and really bad when he's not.
However, my money was on the Cubs getting the better of their former mate, but Marquis did a nice job of staying around the plate and letting the Cubs get themselves out.
Conversely, once Harden lost his touch it made things too easy for Colorado at the plate. Give the Rockies some credit, they waited on strikes, took walks and somehow scored four runs while also striking out eight times in three innings.
Plate patience pushed Harden out after three innings and 92 pitches. Yet, the Cubs' pen did an excellent job of keeping the game close through the ninth. And let's not forget the job they did Monday limiting the Rockies to a single hit.
Can't complain about the relief work!
Still, it's tough playing catch-up at Wrigley with no wind blowing out and chilly temperatures. Plus, you can't afford the miscues of Soriano's fielding error and Fontenot's base running gaffe either.
Huge relief that Soto is back in the lineup. Hill's held his own filling-in, but this lineup is clearly missing Geo's big bat.
Maybe Derek is coming out of his slump, 3-for-4 with a HR??? How much that has to do with moving to the four-hole, I don't know. But I wouldn't risk moving him elsewhere now.
As long as Harden is healthy I'm not worried. And the good news is he'll get an extra off day – Monday – before his next start against Cincinnati.
Marshall makes his first start tomorrow. I'll be happy if he lasts through five innings allowing three runs or less. If so, the Cubs can focus on attacking the Cards' bullpen, which is key during the next four games.
- Notes: Cubs (5-3) 2nd
- W: Marquis (2-0) L: Harden (0-1) S: Grilli (1)
- In reference to Monday's one-hitter: the last time Chicago held its opponent to one hit in the home opener was 91 years ago against the Cardinals (1918).
- Not only did all the players where Jackie Robinson's No. 42, the umpires did as well.
- The Cubs are officially (2-1) on Jackie Robinson Day.
- Soriano has hit safely in seven of his first eight games.

'We Have Sinned Against You'
A leading evangelical speaks at the Mormon Tabernacle and says evangelicals have spread lies about LDS beliefs.Mormon Tabernacle in Salt Lake City on Nov. 14. The event, dubbed an "Evening of Friendship," was organized by Standing Together, a network of 100 evangelical churches trying to improve relations with members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Historical animosity dating back to the founding of the LDS Church has heightened in recent years between the two groups, particularly in the 1990s, when high-profile evangelical leaders said that Mormons are not Christians and the Southern Baptist Convention held one of its annual meetings in Salt Lake City, partially with the goal of converting Mormons to evangelical Protestantism.
In what the Deseret News referred to as "stunningly candid" comments, Fuller Theological Seminary president and Beliefnet columnist Richard J. Mouw apologized to Mormons for evangelicals' tendency to distort the truth about Latter-day Saints' beliefs. "Let me state it clearly. We evangelicals have sinned against you," Mouw said. The speech is making the rounds among surprised and generally pleased evangelical and Mormon groups. We reprint the remarks below.
It is difficult for me to find adequate words to express how thrilled I am to be here this evening. Here we are, evangelical Protestants and members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, gathered together in this Salt Lake Tabernacle, for an event that is described as "An Evening of Friendship."
I am not being melodramatic when I say that this is surely an historic occasion. To be sure, there have long been friendships between some evangelicals and some LDS folks. But they have not appeared on the public radar screen. Our public relations between our two communities have been-to put it mildly-decidedly unfriendly. From the very beginning, when Joseph Smith organized his church in 1830, my evangelical forebears hurled angry accusations and vehement denunciations at the Mormon community-a practice that continues from some evangelical quarters even into this present day. And I think it is fair to say that some Mormons have on occasion responded in kind. Friendship with each other has not come easily for our two communities.

Comments On Nov 06, 2012:Bought this vest for racing motocross in the summer heat. Raced with it on a 100+ degree day, kept me cool for the first 4 laps, after that it felt like a heater, race lasted 6 laps. I hated life the last lap. Works great for a short period of time.

Comments On Jul 21, 2011:One of my riding buddies and I each got one of the EVS CTR vests to help endure the heat here in Arizona. Until now we have used 661 Core Coolers, which work on the same principle, but wanted something that covered more of your body. Because the vest works in the same fashion, yet covers a larger area, it seemed to be just the thing to help increase our comfort on hot days. And, for the most part, it does. There's just one drawback though. The portion of the vest that retains the water only helps keep you cool for maybe 1 hour, at best, then it's pretty much dry. I could see where it would work fine for the duration of a moto, but it signs off way to fast for the riding we do. The Core Cooler easily stays effectively cool all day long, so there's really no reason to believe that the CTR vest couldn't do the same if it had more of the stuff that retains the water in it. I called EVS to find out their take on why it drys so quickly. They told me that the CTR vest was designed with MX riders in mind. If that's the kind of riding you do, then this will really help you to get through a moto on those hot days. But, if you're like a lot of us who ride for more than an hour at a time, you may not be real happy with your purchase. The concept is great, but they (EVS) need to consider that not everybody rides short motos. Maybe if enough of us call or e-mail them, and let them know that we need a product that will go the distance, then they'll make a cooling vest that will work for the off road crowd too.

Tanzania One Theatre's (TOT Plus) vocalist Fatma Ali Salimu, or popularly known as 'Fatma Dogodogo', has died at the Mwananyamala Hospital last Sunday afternoon.
Dogodogo's untimely death was confirmed by TOT's executive director captain John Komba through a press statement availed to The Guardian yesterday.
It was cervical cancer that claimed the death of the Taarab band's most popular and hard working lady.
Komba said the entire TOT fleet of staff and Taarab Music fraternity has been shocked by the demise of the singer who used to win hearts of the fans in and outside the country.
Born on June 11, 1962 at Unguja Urban West in Zanzibar, Dogodogo is survived by a daughter and three grand children.
The short but stocky beautiful singer crossed over to TOT in June 1998 from an art group with the Zanzibar's Ministry of Education, Sports and Culture.
Since then she has been an ardent TOT singer loyal enough to shrug off any temptation to join any other group.
The grief-stricken Komba said Dogodogo has left a huge gap not only to the TOT as a staff but also as a family head.
He said the singer used to be a hardworking, tolerant and composed throughout her musical career.
Dodogogo was buried at the Mwananyamala cemetery yesterday with a huge turn up of family members, friends, relatives, music fans and many more.

Comments On Jul 05, 2013:These pads have a lot of protection...if you can get them on. I probably have larger than average legs as I have played soccer my entire life and I struggled to get them on. Once on I had a hard time shifting and braking due to the fact that I could only bend my knees so far. They will only fit under loose fitting pants. If you have smaller legs and loose pants then I suggest you get them otherwise you will be very uncomfortable. I will try them a few more times in hopes that the stretch out a lot.

Comments On May 20, 2013:these pads looked very nice online and they do look very nice up close but for the publics info these knee pads are very constrictive and are way too bulky. if you were attempting to put these pads under your riding pants good luck and I hope you don't get too irritated with the discomfort.

Comments On Oct 25, 2011:Overall, these are great. Great padding along with a nice, big plastic front. The double-velcro wrap secures this to your leg very well. There is no movement up, down or sideways, even after a full day's ride. They're very secure & very comfy.
The only thing I'm wishing for is more coverage on the inner and outer sides. On a little tip-over, I bruised the outer-side of my knee, because there's no padding at all. (My old pads had better side coverage).

Axel-In-Charge: Bringing "Dead No More" to FCBD, the Original "Civil War's" Legacy
Comic Books
All-Day Event!
Camilla d'Errico is pleased to announce her upcoming Group Exhibition at Ayden Gallery, Vancouver Canada. The exhibition, titled Spilled Milk, also features fine artists Lani Imre, Kristian Adam, and Peter Ricq will run June 14 - July 7 at Ayden Gallery.
Opening reception will be held June 14 at The Ayden Gallery from 7-11pm. Camilla will attend the reception in person.
Camilla will debut a new series of 10 petite oil paintings for exhibition and sale. These original framed pieces will vary from 11x14" portraits to a new 8x10" size of oil paintings on wood panels. In keeping with her smashingly successful showing of petite oil portraits from her Candy Escape exhibition in late 2012, Ayden Gallery will list Camilla's original fine artworks starting at 1600$.
Camilla expresses her thoughts on her new paintings for Spilled Milk "I want to make paintings that reflect what's important to me, and what I'm experiencing right now". Pushing the Pop-Surrealist envelope, Camilla's feminine and natural forms continue to disambiguate in her hauntingly beautiful portraiture.
Ayden Gallery
88 West Pender Street #2103 2nd Floor International Village

Genealogists know that no single resource has everything they need to trace their lineage. It can take thousands of individual records, documents, articles, etc. to get a full picture of just one branch of a family. That is why databases that pull together millions of historical records and materials are such fantastic tools for genealogists. KPL offers several wonderful databases for genealogical research including America's Genealogy Bank that is brand new to us this week. With more than 32 million obituaries, 103 million newspaper articles (dating as far back as 1690), and full text of 11,700 historical books, local genealogists have another amazing resource right at their fingertips. AGB is even available for home access using your KPL library card number. So give our newest database a try. It may be just the tool you need to knock down a genealogical brick wall.

Coghlan's Camper's Dry Sack
Coghlan's Camper's Dry Sack is a bag that seals in a way that it prevents water from getting your things wet. These tools are typically used for kayaking, rafting, canoeing, extreme sports such as skiing or water boarding, and even camping. Backpackers may use dry sacks inside of their hiking packs to protect valuable equipment, gear, and other supplies that cannot get wet. Waterproof dry sacks should be used when you absolutely have to keep a piece of gear dry. A dry sack is a brilliant way of keeping a complete dry set of clothing in your pack which you then change into at the end of a wet day. Next day, grit your teeth and get those wet clothes back on while the dry stuff sits happily in your dry sack. The Velcro straps gives it a tight shut top while giving you a much easier access to get your things inside. The Coghlan's Camper's Dry Sack is the perfect sack to store your important gear and clothing around camp.

A friend from Seattle turned me on to the music of Damien Jurado a couple of years ago so I was excited to stumble on a new cd of his, Maraqopa, as I browsed the KPL new music section. Now I can't stop listening to this mixture of what Larry Fitzmaurice at Pitchfork calls, "soft-psych freak-outs, rainy folk, haunted 1960's pop, and slow-burning oddball sparseness." I googled Jurado and found out I'm a Johnny-come-lately to his music as he has been around since the mid 90's, releasing albums with Sub Pop Records and now with a label based in Indiana called Secretly Canadian. If you like Neil Young and the Fleet Foxes give Jurado a try or come and browse our music section and see what you discover.

BRITNEY SPEARS is still under her conservatorship after four and a half years . . . and there's a good reason for that.
--Britney's people filed papers this week asking the judge in the conservatorship case to seal certain "highly sensitive" records that could cause Britney, quote, "irreparable harm and immediate danger."
--Sources say these records have to do with a SERIOUS MEDICAL ISSUE that prevents Britney from consistently making sound decisions.

Back Problems: Proper Lifting
No one is immune to having a back injury. Whether you have a strong back or have hurt your back before, it is well worth it to:
- Stop yourself before casually picking up a light or heavy load.
- Plan in your mind for the best way to lift what's in front of you. This could include enlisting help from one or more people.
- Lift and move slowly and carefully.
The time you take to use the right lifting mechanics is far less than the days, weeks, or months it can take to heal from a back injury.
Before focusing on the right way to lift, review the following common lifting mistakes that easily lead to a back injury:
- Allowing the back to curve forward while you grasp an object, then lifting by straightening the back
- Bending at the hips but keeping the legs straight while grasping and lifting
- Twisting the back while lifting or holding, usually by turning the shoulders, but not the hips
- Holding an object away from the body
- Lifting a heavy object (or child) above shoulder level
- Attempting to lift an object that's too heavy or awkward for one person to safely lift
- Underestimating the need to be careful when lifting a light object
Test Your Knowledge
I only need to be careful about body mechanics when I'm lifting something that's heavy or awkward.
This answer is incorrect.
Regardless of the weight of an object, careful lifting is important. You can injure your back simply by turning the wrong way while lifting a light object.
This answer is correct.
Regardless of the weight of an object, careful lifting is important. You can injure your back simply by turning the wrong way while lifting a light object.
Back injury is best avoided at all costs. After the first time you have injured your back, it becomes more vulnerable to future injury. A back injury can alter your entire quality of life and possibly your livelihood, especially if it returns or becomes chronic.
Poor lifting technique can injure your back in various ways:
- Muscle or ligament strain—or tiny tears in the muscle or ligament—commonly results from a combination of poor body mechanics and too much of a burden on your back muscles.
- Spinal disc injury is often caused by forward bending of the spine and poor lifting technique. A spinal disc that is squeezed by the vertebrae above and below it can bulge or break open (herniated disc), causing back and leg pain and numbness (sciatica) and sometimes bowel and bladder problems.
- Vertebrae can become damaged during awkward lifting.
Test Your Knowledge
Poor lifting technique can cause an injury to the muscle, spinal discs, or bone.
This answer is correct.
The back is a complex system of bone and connective tissue, any or all of which can be injured by poor lifting practices.
This answer is incorrect.
The back is a complex system of bone and connective tissue, any or all of which can be injured by poor lifting practices.
Follow these basic rules to protect your back while lifting:
- Keep a wide base of support. Your feet should be shoulder-width apart, with one foot slightly ahead of the other (karate stance).
- Squat down, bending at the hips and knees only. If needed, put one knee to the floor and your other knee in front of you, bent at a right angle (half kneeling).
- Maintain good posture. Look straight ahead, and keep your back straight, your chest out, and your shoulders back. This helps keep your upper back straight while maintaining a slight arch in your lower back.
- Slowly lift by straightening your hips and knees (not your back). Keep your back straight, and don't twist as you lift.
- Hold the load as close to your body as possible, at the level of your belly button.
- Use your feet to change direction, taking small steps.
- Lead with your hips as you change direction. Keep your shoulders in line with your hips as you move.
- Set down your load carefully, squatting with the knees and hips only.
Test Your Knowledge
Safe lifting is intuitive—we do it without thinking about it.
This answer is incorrect.
People tend to lean over and lift with their backs. However easy it may be to do, this can lead to injury. Take time for conscious thought to stop, plan, and lift safely.

Qhorin Halfhand Season 2
this wiki
In Season 2 Qhorin Halfhand is a regular recurring character.
The Ghost of HarrenhalEdit
Qhorin arrives at the Fist of the First Men and finds Lord Commander Jeor Mormont and his men waiting for him. Qhorin reports sighting something on a distant mountain to Lord Commander Mormont. Samwell Tarly says that he does not see well but Jon Snow is able to discern a fire blazing. Qhorin nods and agrees. He cautions that if the Wildling scouts see them the fire will grow into a warning beacon for Mance Rayder. Jeor asks how many wildlings have joined Mance and Qhorin says that it seems that they all have. Qhorin elaborates that Mance has gathered his people like deer against the wolves and that they are almost ready to strike. Jeor wonders where and Qhorin speculates that they aim to reach safety south of the Wall. Qhorin cautions that they cannot march on the wildlings or expect to defeat them from their current position.[1]
Jeor wonders if he is suggesting that they return to the Wall. Qhorin says that because Mance was once a brother of the Night's Watch he will have instilled more discipline into the wildlings than they have known before. He counsels that they must fight more like the wildlings in response. He suggests that they should sneak in to the Wildling camp and kill Mance to scatter his army before it can march on the Wall. Jeor realizes that to achieve this they must first overcome his lookouts. Qhorin says that it is a task for a small group. He calls for Harker, Stonesnake and Barber and prepares to descend from the Fist. Jon requests to join Qhorin and Jeor reminds him of his responsibilities as a steward. Jon confidently counters that he has killed a wight, unlike many rangers. Qhorin is impressed but Jeor deflates Jon by reminding him of the beating he suffered at Craster's hands. Qhorin consoles Jon that Craster is a tough old goat. Sam offers to take on Jon's duties and Jeor agrees to let him go. He tells Jon that he hopes he will make a better ranger than he did a steward.[1]
The Old Gods and the NewEdit
Qhorin leads his scouting party into the Skirling Pass. Jon Snow calls to his direwolf Ghost to stay close to them but is ignored. Qhorin calls Ghost a pet and Jon objects. Qhorin agrees that a direwolf is not a pet, saying that you cannot tame a wild thing. Qhorin says that wild creatures cannot be trusted and Jon says that Ghost is different. Qhorin asserts that wild creatures have their own unknowable rules and reasons. Qhorin warns that the wildlings they are looking for are nocturnal hunters. Jon points out that Qhorin is contradicting his assertion that you can't know a wild thing. Qhorin retorts that he meant that Jon can't. Qhorin expands that the wildlings hide in caves while the sun is up and then do their killing while it is dark. Jon suggests that they do the same and Qhorin counters that they do not know the terrain well enough, saying that he has lost good men to hidden crevasses. Jon says that his father always told him that he was of the North and Qhorin laughs at him. Jon says that he was not joking and Qhorin asks him to look around at the icy terrain and consider if it is anything like his home. Qhorin warns that the land itself will kill you if you start to think that you know it. He asks if Jon understands and Jon nods. Qhorin tells Jon that he does not understand. Qhorin says that they are at war and have always been at war. He says that their war will never end because they are not fighting an enemy but fighting the North, which is not going anywhere.[2]
Qhorin tells Jon that the Night's Watch has given him a great gift and that he can reciprocate by giving his life. Jon says that he would gladly give his life for the Watch. Qhorin stops and grabs Jon, telling him that he does not want him to die gladly. He says that he wants him to curse and fight to his last heart beat. Qhorin says that Jon's death will be a gift to the people south of the wall but that they will never know of his actions or his name. Qhorin again asks if Jon understands him and Jon again answers affirmatively. Qhorin says that Jon is even dumber than he looks and dismisses what he has said as words intended to make them feel that they have a purpose. Qhorin urges Jon onwards saying that they must find their quarry before night falls and the tables are turned.[2]
Qhorin and his men surround the camp of the wildling lookouts. Qhorin signals the attack and they swiftly kill all but one of the wildlings. Jon pins the survivor against a rock but stays his hand when he sees that his captive is a woman. Jon says that they could take her captive and question her. Qhorin says that she will not answer and that he has known wildlings to bite off their own tongues rather than submit to questioning. Jon asks her name and learns that she is called Ygritte. Qhorin tells Jon that she was reaching for an axe when he stopped her and that given half a chance she will kill him.[2]
Ygritte says that she has told Jon her name and he reciprocates. Ygritte says that they should burn the bodies of the wildlings they have killed. Qhorin questions her motivation for wanting them to light a fire. He asks if she has more friends in the area and she warns that they might need their swords again if the bodies are left unburned. Qhorin says that Jon has already killed a wight and can do it again. Qhorin asks what awaits them beyond the pass and Ygritte says that there are more free folk than they have ever seen. Qhorin asks why they are in the Frostfangs and Ygritte does not answer. Qhorin asks if they mean to march on the wall and again gets no response. He approaches her and puts a gloved hand to her face, asking if she knows who he is. She recognizes him and he asks what her people would do if they caught him. She says that if he they were feeling kind they would grant him a quick death. Qhorin pragmatically details the reasons that Ygritte must die and draws his sword. Jon says that he will kill her himself. Qhorin leads the rest of his men away and tells Jon to meet them at the summit, warning him to be quick because they are deep in wildling territory. Jon fails to rejoin the group by nightfall.[2]
The Prince of WinterfellEdit
Qhorin turned back to search for Jon Snow and easily found his tracks. They are ambushed by wildlings led by the Lord of Bones, called Rattleshirt. Harker, Stonesnake and Borba are killed and Qhorin is taken prisoner.[3]
Ygritte leads Jon across a glacial lake with the rest of her party. She brings him to the Lord of Bones and says that he is a present. The wildling commander is dismissive, gesturing to Qhorin and saying that he already has one captive from the Night's Watch and does not need another. Ygritte asserts that Mance Rayder will want to question Jon because he knows about the plans of the Watch. The Lord of Bones counters that Qhorin knows more and orders Jon killed. Ygritte defends Jon, citing his honorable treatment of her when she was his prisoner. The Lord of Bones is unmoved and repeats his order. Ygritte reveals Jon's status as the bastard son of Eddard Stark and insists that Mance will want him. The Lord of Bones asks why Mance should care about a dead man's bastard and Ygritte retorts that Mance will want to decide for himself. The Lord of Bones threatens to castrate Jon if he attempts to escape and Ygritte says that she would do it herself if he tries to escape. She turns to Jon and says that they are even.[3]
Ygritte pushes Jon to the ground next to Qhorin. Jon tells the ranger that he was unable to kill Ygritte. Qhorin has already worked out the sequence of events. Jon asks where the other men are and Qhorin tells him that they were killed searching for him. Jon realizes that the others died because of his actions. Qhorin tells him to make sure that they did not die for nothing.[3]

Monday's subzero temperatures broke records in Chicago, which set a record for the date at minus 16, and Fort Wayne, Ind., where the mercury fell to 13 below. Records also fell in Oklahoma and Texas, and wind chills across the region were 40 below and colder. Officials in states like Indiana already struggling with high winds and more than a foot of snow urged residents to stay home if they could.
"The cold is the real killer here," Indianapolis Mayor Greg Ballard said Monday as he asked schools and businesses to remain closed another day. "In 10 minutes you could be dead without the proper clothes."
The polar air will next invade the East and South on Tuesday, bringing with it the prospect of more records falling. Highs in the single digits were expected in Georgia and Alabama, and wind chill warnings stretched as far south as Florida, with forecasts calling for minus 10 in Atlanta and minus 12 in Baltimore.
In downtown Louisville, Ky., where wind chills dropped to 22 below zero Monday, John Tyler gathered with friends at a McDonald's. The self-described homeless man spent Sunday night sleeping on the street.
Dressed in a sweatshirt, two coats and a black woolen cap, Tyler said there's no way to adequately prepare for this kind of cold.
"How we're dealing with it? You can't deal with it," Tyler said. "There's no way you can deal with it."
Forecasters said some 187 million people in all could feel the effects of the "polar vortex" by the time it spreads across the country. Tennessee utility officials braced for near-record power demand, while Ohio prepared for its coldest temperatures in decades.
PJM Interconnection, who operates the power grid supplying energy to more than 61 million people in parts of the Mid-Atlantic, Midwest and South, has asked users to conserve electricity Tuesday because of the cold, especially in the morning and late afternoon.
Recovery will be the focus in several Midwestern states Tuesday, since the subzero cold followed inches of snow and high winds that made traveling treacherous—especially on interstates in Indiana and Illinois—and was being blamed for numerous deaths in Michigan, Illinois, Indiana and Ohio.
Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn and Indiana Gov. Mike Pence issued disaster declarations, paving the way to request federal aid.
More than 30,000 customers in Indiana were without power late Monday night.
"My kids are ready to go home, and I'm ready too," said 41-year-old Timolyn Johnson-Fitzgerald, of Indianapolis, who faced a second night sleeping on cots at a Red Cross shelter with her three children, ages 11, 15, and 18.
Bob Oravec, a meteorologist at the Weather Prediction Center in College Park, Md., said the blast of frigid air raised concerns that roads wet from melted snow would freeze over.
"In Maryland, we lost a lot of the snowpack and a lot of water is draining off, and the temperatures are dropping fast," Oravec said.
But there are signs things are returning to normal.
JetBlue Airways, which stopped all scheduled flights to and from New York and Boston on Monday, planned to resume some flights Tuesday morning. Southwest Airlines operations in Chicago resumed Monday night, even if it was, as a spokesman for the Texas-based airline called it, "a trickle."
The Minnesota Zoo announced it would reopen to the public Tuesday. State lawmakers in Indiana planned to kick off their 2014 legislative session after a day's postponement.
And warmer temperatures—at least, near or above freezing—are in store for the Midwest. Indianapolis should reach 27 degrees on Wednesday, and other parts of the central U.S. could climb above freezing later in the week.
Even International Falls, Minn., had something to look forward to. Wind chills dropped as low as -55 Monday, but were expected to rebound to 25 below Tuesday. By Friday, the low was expected to be 5 to 10 above zero, Oravec said.
Until then, take advice for dealing with frostbite- and hypothermia-inducing cold from Anthony Bickham in St. Paul, Minn., who jumped around while waiting for the bus Monday.
"You gotta keep it moving," Bickham said. "Stay warm at ... all costs, you know."
Associated Press writers Steve Karnowski and Amy Forliti in Minneapolis; Brett Barrouquere in Louisville, Ky.; and Kelly P. Kissel in Little Rock, Ark., contributed to this report.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Doctors treating Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton for a blood clot say the clot formed in her head but they stress that they are confident she will make a full recovery.
In an update Monday on Clinton's condition, her doctors say the blood clot did not result in a stroke, or neurological damage. The clot is located in the vein in the space between the brain and the skull behind the right ear.
Clinton's doctors say that to help dissolve the clot, they are treating her with blood thinners. They say she will be released once the medication dose has been established.
In their update, the doctors say the 65-year-old secretary of state is making excellent progress and is in good spirits.
