BW059: The Mighty Accelguard to the Rescue!
this wiki
Episode Plot
After a long time coming Ash and co. finally arrive at Driftveil City. Ash heads to the Gym and meets Clay, the Driftveil Gym Leader. Unfortunately Clay is too busy to have a Gym Battle and walks off. In the meantime a local named Charles agrees to give Ash and friends a tour of Driftveil Market. But when the Thief and his Ducklett stole the fruit of apples from the market, there's evil afoot, the mighty Accelgor (and Accelguard in the dub) appears on the scene. But who is this mysterious hero? However as those thieves are making a getaway, a Timburr appears pushing the front of their car very hard with its wooden beam to crush the engines to make it stop. This Timburr belongs to Charles' childhood friend Linda. After the thieves are arrested, Charles and Linda saw the symbol of the Vanillite on that truck it just went by as they begin to wonder who's doing this.
- Human
- Pokémon
- Accelguard is the second Pokémon based superhero seen throughout the entire series. The first was Gligarman way back in JE022: The Superhero Secret
- Accelguard's costume and riding on a motorcycle is based on the Kamen Riders (Masked Riders), a multie television series involving superheroes who ride on motorcycles as they fight evil.
- Linda bears a slight resemblance to Honey Kisaragi from the anime series Cutey Honey.
- Professor Oak's Live Caster: Pawniard
- Marc Thompson provides the voice of the milk carrier.

Anticholinergics for Cerebral Palsy
|Generic Name
|Brand Name
|Cuvposa, Robinul
How It Works
Anticholinergic medicines reduce uncontrollable body movements in people who have dystonic cerebral palsy.
Why It Is Used
Anticholinergic medicines are used to treat muscle stiffness, tremors, and spasms. They are used for people who have a nonspastic type of cerebral palsy.
How Well It Works
These medicines are primarily used to treat symptoms of Parkinson's disease and have not been well studied as treatment for cerebral palsy. Although initially they help improve muscular problems in some people, the gains often are temporary. Over time, the medicine may lose its effectiveness. The baclofen (antispasmodic) pump may work better for people with dystonic cerebral palsy.
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 your child takes. Side effects are also listed in the information that comes with the 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 your child takes the medicine for a while.
- If side effects still bother your child and you wonder if he or she should keep taking the medicine, call your doctor. He or she may be able to lower the dose or change the medicine. Do not suddenly have your child quit taking the medicine unless your doctor says so.
Call 911 or other emergency services right away if your child has:
- Trouble breathing.
- Swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat.
- Confusion.
- A pounding feeling in the chest (heart palpitation).
Call your doctor if your child has:
- Hives.
- Vision problems.
- Bloody or cloudy urine.
- Pain or burning when he or she urinates.
- Problems with urination, including difficulty beginning to urinate, a urine stream that stops and starts, a weak urine stream, a need to strain while urinating, or a sense that the bladder is not empty after urination.
- A dry mouth for more than 2 weeks.
Common side effects of this medicine include:
- Dry mouth, nose, throat, and eyes.
- Dizziness.
- Drowsiness.
- Belly pain, upset stomach, or nausea.
- Constipation or diarrhea.
See Drug Reference for a full list of side effects. (Drug Reference is not available in all systems.)
What To Think About
Dry mouth is common with these medicines. If your older child is physically able to, have him or her chew sugarless gum, suck on sugarless candy, or melt ice in his or her mouth. If your child continues to have problems with dry mouth after about 2 weeks, call your doctor. Dry mouth can lead to tooth decay and gum disease.
Because anticholinergics can reduce your child's ability to sweat, help prevent your child from overheating on very hot days. For example, limit your child's time in the sun and give your child plenty of water.
Taking medicine
Medicine is one of the many tools your doctor has to treat a health problem. If your child takes medicine as your doctor suggests, it will improve your child's health and may prevent future problems. If your child doesn't take the medicines properly, his or her health (and perhaps life) may be 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.
Follow-up care is a key part of your child's treatment and safety. Be sure to make and go to all appointments, and call your doctor if your child is having problems. It's also a good idea to know your child's test results and keep a list of the medicines your child takes.

Wildfires still burning will bring another weekend of unhealthy air for many here in Eastern Carolina.
Code Purple air quality conditions are expected for Carteret, Craven, Dare, Duplin, inland Hyde, Jones, Onslow and Pender counties both Saturday and Sunday. That means people who are sensitive to air pollution should avoid all outdoor physical activity.
Code Red conditions are predicted for Beaufort, Camden, Currituck, Lenoir, Pamlico, Pitt and Tyrrell counties, as well as the northern Outer Banks. Code Orange conditions could occur throughout the rest of Eastern Carolina.
The smoke is coming from the Juniper Road wildfire burning in Pender and Onslow counties and the Pains Bay wildfire in Dare County.
Foresters say both fires started from lightning strikes.

GenresRole Playing
The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages gives gamers classic Zelda action, with a heaped helping of original concepts and puzzles. Link must travel around a vast overworld collecting clues and items, and explore challenging dungeons filled with fierce monsters and maddening puzzles. When Link's adventure begins, he uses the power of the Triforce to travel to a new land known as Labrynna. Veran, the Sorceress of Shadows, is planning to alter Labrynna's past so that she may rule over the present. Through trickery and deceit, Veran harnesses the power of Nayru, the Oracle of Ages, and travels 400 years into the past. Immediately, Labrynna's present changes dramatically, reflecting Veran's evil actions. Before the Sorceress of Shadows can complete her dark mission, Link must use the Harp of Ages to travel through time and recover the eight Essences of Time.
Time travel presents Link with some unique problems and puzzles. Many of the game's challenges require Link to travel from one time period to another in order to reach his goal. If a river is blocking your path in the present, for example, you can travel to the past and move a stone to redirect the flow of the water. If you plant seeds in the past, you'll find full-grown trees and vines when you return to the present.
Link also meets some powerful friends in Labrynna who can help him in a variety of ways. A winged polar bear named Moosh can help Link attack enemies with a powerful ground-pounding blow, or Link can ride a friendly Dodongo named Dimitri across deep bodies of water. When Link rides in the pouch of a boxing kangaroo named Ricky, he can K.O. his enemies with a few quick jabs. Link's adventure offers great gameplay, an engrossing storyline and beautifully detailed graphics.
Whether you're a long-time fan of The Legend of Zelda or a newcomer to the series, you're sure to spend many hugely rewarding hours helping Link restore order to Labrynna.

FORT WAYNE (www.incnow.tv) - The Mad Ants obtained former Notre Dame star Luke Harangody in a trade announced Friday, and he helped them net a 107-97 win over Texas in his first game Friday night.
Harangody was obtained from the Canton Charge, who held his D League rights, in exchange for forward JaJuan Johnson.
Harangody had been signed in the offseason by Cleveland, but was released in late November and had not played since.
He did not show it Friday night scoring 19 points and grabbing 18 rebounds in his Fort Wayne debut.
Orlando Johnson led the Mad Ants with 24 points, and then was recalled by the Indiana Pacers after the game, with the Pacers sending forward Miles Plumlee back to Fort Wayne.

There is more to Dans Le Noir? than meets the eye. Beyond its gimmicky premise, this restaurant has a vision: to raise awareness of the visually impaired, by staffing the restaurant with blind waiters or "guides."
Dans Le Noir? – French for "in the black" – invites diners to eat and drink in just that: the pitch black. The idea is by suppressing a person's sense of sight, it will heighten their other senses.
The first outpost of Dans Le Noir? (yes, the question mark is part of the name) opened in Paris in July 2004. The restaurant concept has since expanded to locations in London, St. Petersburg, Barcelona and, most recently, New York City.
Edouard de Broglie is the president of the Ethik Investment Group, which owns the restaurants. He believes corporate social responsibility is the root of the company, and more than 50 percent of the staff has a disability.
In this case, the industry-wide practice of "blind tasting" – tasting an ingredient while blindfolded then deciphering what it is – takes on a deeper emotional undertone. The tables are turned: The diners become the blind, and the blind, who rely on the help of others daily, become the guides.
At the New York location, the restaurant joined forces with Lighthouse International, an 107-year-old organization that helps people cope with the challenges of vision loss.
"People are cognitive that the person serving has that visual impairment. It's a very interesting psychological test. They aren't relying on their own senses and that just forms a connection," said Barbara Gydé, the Chief External Affairs Officer for the organization. "It's not sympathy, it's empathy."
Interaction with sighted people isn't the only challenge, said Gydé. "The reality is it's harder for people who are blind to find jobs."
Samuel Davis III has seen both sides of the world, and found a home at Dans Le Noir?. The 51-year-old Bronx native was left blind in 1984 after being shot in the head.
"God took away my sight to give me sight. I have a brand new outlook on life," said Davis. "I was supposed to be dead." As he seamlessly navigates the pitch black room, Davis puts uneasy diners at ease with quips like "I could do this blindfolded" and "Don't worry, I'm scared of the dark too."
That vivacity and charm is crucial – after all at their core, restaurants are in the business of hospitality, said Broglie.
"It's not easy. It's like anything else, it's mind over matter – if you don't mind it, it doesn't matter," said Davis, who used to wait tables when he had his sight.
Employees like Davis go through a two-month training period, memorizing the layout of the room and how to set and bus tables. Because of the nature of the restaurant, particular emphasis is put on safety.
During dinner, the guides pass down training of their own that visually impaired people use on a day-to-day basis. For instance, it's more effective to eat the contents of a plate from the outside-in so food doesn't end up being pushed onto the table. Or, in order to refill a drink without the glass overflowing, place your finger slightly in the glass so when you feel the liquid on your fingertip, you know to stop pouring.
However, some former patrons like Jasper Gerard acknowledge that other factors - namely the food - are sacrificed for the sheer concept. Gerard, who is the restaurant critic for the Telegraph, reviewed the London outpost in 2008.
"If £187 for three is not daylight robbery, that is due only to the lack of daylight. If this joint has any merit, I'm in the dark about it," he wrote.
The New York location opened in March, and hasn't been subjected to an official review. Regardless, the experience of Dans Le Noir? has seemingly struck a chord. It's been eight years since the original Paris location opened, and the company has plans to expand even further.
"People tell me I don't know how you do it," said Davis. "I've been blind 28 years, you've been blind an hour and a half. I admire you guys to even have the courage to do this."

Albany Med endeavors to raise the bar on quality every day.
Read more about our recent accomplishments.
|Raising the Bar
Albany Medical Center's Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) was the first Level IV NICU in upstate New York to have completely eliminated central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI's) over a 12-month period.
"Reaching this mark reflects Albany Med's long-term commitment to achieving quality benchmarks," said Michael Horgan, MD, division head of Neonatology.
Central line-associated bloodstream infections are a nationwide problem in neonatal ICUs where babies are vulnerable to infection and often need central lines placed for many weeks or months. Infections occur when the central lines (catheters inserted into the arm or umbilical cord running to major arteries to deliver medicine or nutrition) become contaminated with bacteria.
Though usually not life threatening, CLABSI's are a setback for a baby and for parents who want to get their newborn home.
Albany Med has been using strict maintenance practices to care for central lines since taking part in a 2008 study on CLABSI. The statewide project studied the use of these practices and their overall affect in reducing central line infections. For example, a nurse can only insert a central line in a sterile environment in which the entire room is closed off to visitors and non-essential personnel. "We have very complex patients here," said Sue Furdon, NP, neonatal clinical nurse practitioner. "We know our nurses provide excellent care for our patients. This is a concrete example of that."
"This quality initiative has been in the forefront of our unit discussions and actions for five years now," she added, citing vigilance on the part of everyone involved in caring for patients with a central line. "It's a lot of daily energy around one concept in the total care of the infant."
"Clearly, the nurses own this," said Dr. Horgan. "They are the ones managing the central lines. It's up to them. They have taken this on and it's remarkable."

The University of Washington has adopted a national recruiting strategy and the Huskies have offered recruits from all over the country. Prospects from the deep South to the east coast have offers from UW, but so far the Huskies' strong start can be attributed to their success on the west coast.Only a few major college football programs have a truly national recruiting strategy. Notre Dame does, for obvious reasons, as do others, such as Tennessee.Washington would obviously love to have the clout in the coming years to go into any home in any part of the country and they're already making the effort.The Huskies are putting together a potentially big-time haul in the Class of 2013 and it's because of their efforts in Pac-12 country.In February, the Huskies signed just one of the top five, two of the top 10, and three of the top 15 prospects in their home state. The 2013 class is shaping up to be a much different story.Four-star linebacker Sean Constantine was a huge pickup in April as he's tagged as the state's No. 2 prospect behind quarterback Max Browne (USC commit). Throw in Sammie Long, the state's No. 8 prospect, and in June the Huskies have matched their total of top 10 in-state commits from the 2012 class.Danny Mattingly is rated among the state's top five prospects and both remain very open to Washington's overtures. Tatum Taylor, another, doesn't have a Washington offer yet.True, five-star prospect Browne opting for USC was a miss, but it's tough to fault anyone for losing out on a big-time quarterback to the Trojans.It's not just that Washington has had improved success in the state. The Huskies once again seeing success in California. It's tough to predict the Huskies will do better in the state this year. After all, they signed Shaq Thompson, Jaydon Mickens, Brandon Beaver and Pio Vatuvei, among others, in February.However, with three commits ranked as three-star prospects from the state (Troy Williams, Aaron Baltazar and Darrell Daniels), plus two others on the cusp of a four-star ranking (Dane Crane and Connor O'Brien), it's not hard to imagine that the UW brand is bigger in California than it has been in quite some time.It's clear that Washington is also in good shape with running back Lavon Coleman. Long Beach (Calif.) Jordan receiver John Ross recently said the Huskies are in his top five, as did Redlands running back Craig Lee. They're in the top three for Upland defensive end Joe Mathis and when Michael Hutchings visited UW it caused him to take a step back and open things up a bit.It sounds like Max Redfield may want to take an official visit while the Huskies made the cut for Elijah Qualls.In other words, no matter how many offers the Huskies send out to prospects in faraway states, the bread and butter is close to home. That doesn't appear to be changing anytime soon. ...More... To continue reading this article you must be a member. Sign Up Now!

Have fun with CS6 some good tutorials here, so hunt em down. Enjoy the surfing look forward to seeing you post something
So - introductory note.
I'm Michael Guenther, an alum of THE Ohio State University, and current employee of The University of Tennessee as a IT System Administrator. I work for the overarching UT System organization, which provides governance and other services to the various UT Board of Trustees schools.
My primary work is involved with Windows (ick) and MS SQL databases (I had to retire my "Not-A-DBA" hat a few months ago).
I've been gaming since Adam took a bite out of the apple.
I've played a metric crap-ton of different RPG's and have always hand drawn any maps that I've needed to come up with. Looking at the maps that Chris West has done for Star Wars and hearing that he got tapped to do maps for Monte Cook's Numenera project got me interested in doing maps with my iMac.
I started a few weeks ago trying to do little things in Pixelmator, but got frustrated, so I took advantage of my UT Staff discount and picked myself up a copy of CS6 Design Studio and cheap Wacom Bamboo tablet. Now I get to feel the frustration of learning PS again after not using it for twelve years.
And that's the story of me, as it relates to here.
Happy Mapping!

Welcome to the Guild KnoxvilleBuckeye! Well I wish you all the best in your new digital mapping adventure. Yeah there is a learning curve, but once you get past it digital mapping has allot of advantages over traditional mediums (though I love traditional hand drawn maps!).

Two days after Minister for Works Dr John Magufuli ordered the Tanzania Electric Supply Company (Tanesco) to remove all electricity poles from road reserve areas to pave way for building the infrastructure to be used by the Rapid Bus Transit project, Tanzania Roads Agency (Tanroads) has now agreed to shoulder the responsibility.
Tanroads in Dar es Salaam region has agreed to shoulder the responsibility after Tanesco, through its Public Relations Manager Badra Masoud, on Thursday said the power utility company was not ready to implement Dr Magufuli's order on the ground that such task was supposed to be carried out by Tanroads.
Dr Magufuli was compelled to issue the order on Wednesday after it came to his attention that implementation of Dar Es Salaam Rapid Transit (DART) project was being slowed down by the presence of electricity poles and water pipes in road reserve areas.
Masoud said the contractor awarded the tender to construct the DART infrastructure- Stra Bag- should do the job at Tanroads' cost, adding that Tanesco would only be ready to provide technical support.
Speaking yesterday to The Guardian, Tanroads manager for Dar es Salaam zone Julius Ndyamkana said they would remove the polls as well as water and sewage pipes which are within the road reserved areas with the help of the German constructing company, Stra Bag.

May 2, 2016
GREENSBORO, N.C. -- Sophomore Benton Moss was named the Atlantic Coast Conference Pitcher of the Week for the week ending March 17 as announced by the league office.
The Tar Heels' Moss earned his league-leading fifth victory of the year Saturday night as he carried a no-hitter into the sixth inning against No. 29 Miami.
Moss matched a season high with nine strikeouts in the win as he surrendered just two hits over seven scoreless innings, leading top-ranked UNC to even up the conference series, which it would eventually win on Sunday.
Moss has registered at least 7 strikeouts in each of his starts this season and ranks fourth in the ACC with 39 strikeouts this year.
The Enfield, N.C., native and former Rocky Mount High School star is also holding opponents to a .174 batting average through his 31 innings of work, the fourth-lowest mark in the ACC heading into the third week of conference play.

The Buckingham Shamal is a multi-role, jet powered business aeroplane in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and a commuter jet in Grand Theft Auto V, available in the airports of all the three cities in San Andreas.
Its model is based on the Learjet 60 in GTA San Andreas, and a Learjet 45 in GTA V. Similar unflyable business jets also make multiple appearances in other Grand Theft Auto games.
GTA San Andreas
The Shamal is available to the player since the beginning of GTA San Andreas, in the Los Santos International Airport, acquirable by trespassing over the security booth if the player still hasn't got the pilots license. It is a considerably fast jet, being on par with the Rustler, and due to it's availability, the Shamal is a good choice for players who are just learning to fly jets, as its handling is balanced and it's easy to land on runways. Also, despite its interior size, it can transport only the player.
The most prominent appearance of the Shamal is during "Freefall", when the plane's interior can be seen. The size of the interior appears larger than usual for an aircraft with a relatively small fuselage, and the interior incongruously features 16 windows (9 on the left and 7 on the right) when the plane features only 8 outside.
- "The Shamal is a small commuter jet known for its cimb and cruise performance with the Luxor filling the role for a business jet. The Shamal has balanced handling and economical fuel consumption. At current gas prices, you can fly a Shamal coast to coast for just $50,000, without even a second thought for the ozone layer."
- ―Elitás Travel webpage
The Shamal appeared in the first trailer and later in one of the screenshots for Grand Theft Auto V, implying that it would most likely return as a functional plane. This was confirmed by the gameplay trailer, that showed the Shamal being flown over the Land Act Dam. Like it's predecessor, it seems to be a considerably fast aircraft, and possibly inspired on the Learjet 45. It also has 16 passenger windows in total (8 on each side)
It can be purchased for $1,150,000 in the in-game ElitasTravel.com website.
A business jet known as the Luxor has a similar design to the Shamal.
Similar business jets
Despite none being named as "Shamal" or even accessible to the player, many similar private jets appear as an uncontrollable and mostly stationary aircraft in the series:
- In Grand Theft Auto III and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City there are multiple parked business jets around the Francis and Escobar airports based off the Learjet 35.
- In GTA Advance, during Freedom Flies, a cutscene shows a plane similar to the Shamal.
- In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, a jet also similar to the Learjet 35 but with a considerably larger fuselage and wing span, decorated with blue stripes, appears in multiple missions. It is first seen in the introductory mission, Soldier, as belonging to the dealer Victor Vance meets. It is later seen parked in Escobar International during Snitch Hitch and ends up being escorted out of the airport by Vance while it takes off in Farewell to Arms.
- In Grand Theft Auto IV and it's expansions, business jets still remain unattainable (nor can any other planes be flown) but such vehicles can still be found at Francis International Airport, featuring an updated design. One such plane is used by Kenny Petrovic during the Hangman's NOOSE multiplayer mission where, in up to four players, must hold back NOOSE units and escort Petrovic from his jet at Francis International Airport to a safepoint.
- In Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, a jet also similar to the Learjet 35 is introduced in the first mission of the game, used by Huang Lee to travel to Liberty City. For the rest of the game, just as in GTA IV, is an uncontrollable aircraft at the Francis International Airport. It can also be seen taking off and landing in the runways, but never taxing or moving from them.
- In the Grand Theft Auto IV DLC Ballad of Gay Tony, Ray Bulgarin owns a much larger business jet named Ghawar. Also in The Ballad of Gay Tony, the only time a regular business jet isn't stationary is during the mission Bang Bang, where Luis must destroy one before it takes off.
GTA San Andreas
- Los Santos International Airport, one of them just northwest of the runway.
- Easter Bay International Airport, two of them next to southeastern access road, another one next to the fuel tanks, where the Stinger can be also obtained.
- Las Venturas Airport, two of them between the two sets of ramps, west of the runway. During the mission Saint Mark's Bistro there is another one at the northern end of the runway, which is supposed to serve CJ as transport to Liberty City and back.
- During the mission Freefall it flies to Las Venturas and CJ is supposed to jack it with a Dodo, eliminate the strike team and pilot inside and land the plane at LVA.
- Can be purchased for $1,150,000 on the Elitás Travel's website.
- Found at the Los Santos International Airport in FlyUS and Air EMU liveries.
- In Arabic, Shamal means "North", however in Arabic it's pronounced "Shemal" not "Shamal" .
- In GTA: San Andreas, while in the interior of the Shamal during Freefall, the player can shoot out the lights and headrests.
- The Shamal can be seen on the TV show I'm Rich in GTA IV, possibly suggesting that it was cut from the game.
- The Shamal and the Dodo are the only airplanes that spawn in the 3D Universe in Los Santos.
- Pictures of the Shamal, amongst other planes, can be seen in the Max Payne 3 multiplayer map Tiete River Docks. Interestingly, said game was released by Rockstar in 2012, a year before Grand Theft Auto V .

- Ghawar, non-controllable equivalent in The Ballad of Gay Tony.

What's New at SocialGumbo World HQPosted by Loki on Aug 31, 2013 in Blogging, Google+, Online PR, Rising Tide, SixEstate | 0 comments
Looks like time to reactivate this blog and make it tap dance again. I've been guilty of ignoring my own advice that I give to clients about not letting it lapse. On the good side it gives me the opportunity to make a quick State of the Gumbo post and bring all of you up to speed on our current projects and events.
My weekly blog for SixEstate continues into it's fourth consecutive year! Anyone desiring my services for book based projects needs to go through 6E, and please feel free to request me by name!
CincyVoices has been sold to one of the senior staff I brought in. I made sure to sell it to someone local with an online background that included the legendary WOXY. It should be coming back to life in the very near future. While it is no longer a part of the SocialGumbo Network we wish them the best and may even periodically lend a hand with things
Rising Tide 8 looms on the 14th of September and once more I will be doing my usual duties as MC. I will also be walking the room doing point of view interviews and providing one in depth Glass demo to a random lucky attendee. We have a Labor Day Weekend Buy One /Get One special, how can you turn that down? Tickets Here
I am also very proud to announce a new ongoing relationship with Yorwerth Associates, Publishing Consultants and Literary agents. It seems no matter how digital it gets I often end up working with books. I love that.
Google Glass Explorer
Thanks to a few strokes of luck and the support of my readers (you people are fantastic, btw) I've now been sporting Google Glass for a few weeks.
First Contact: I must thank the folks at Google for allowing me to be the first one permitted to film the setup / training process. I'm pretty sure that having Kevin Frech of Logical Chaos as the cameraman is what made them allow it. Right now Kevin is pulling together a solid edit for me in between his other projects, and we hope to debut it in the very near future.
View From the Stage: Tonight the first of the projects I am integrating Glass into will hit the stage as I join forces with Wild Bill Dykes to get some comedian's point-of-view footage as he brings Glass up on the stage with him.
Find Your Island Through Glass: Next weekend I'll be heading out to Florida as part of the #FindYourIsland team, a group of five Glass Explorers being brought down to The Beaches of Fort Myers & Sanibel on the Florida coast. I will be part of a team of five Glass Explorers brought to the islands by MMGY. I'll be joined on the three day adventure by

- Hilary Topper twitter | Google plus
- Jeris JC Miller twitter | Google plus
- Keith Kaplan twitter | Google plus
- Shea Carter, MMGY Team twitter | Google plus
- Robert Patterson, MMGY Team twitter.com | Google plus
Chef Mars Gets Glassy Eyed: Chef Mars of Louisiana Bistro will don the device and deliver a potent combination of mockery and culinary skill. More details forthcoming after Sept 10.
Cafe Luna- Art of the Barrista: Greg Hill, owner of geek friendly coffeehouse Cafe Luna will provide some point-of-view lessons in the art of coffee. From artistic foam to amusing trivia. Coming in mid Sept.
Tabletop Game Design
ENnie Nominated
To my great joy Dark Roads and Golden Hells was nominated for an ENnie Award this year. While We did not win it was a wonderful thing to have happen to my first book. As a matter of fact our design team produced so much work for this volume that we had to release a substantial supplement, Shadow Planes and Pocket Worlds, so that we would not waste so much good work.
Despite the fact that I have done a good bit of d20 and Pathfinder design, this was my first physical book rather than a periodical or web property. All in all I'm thrilled at the nomination.
Not only was working with Kobold Press a fantastic experience, but I got to interact with and get feedback from a number of the original Planescape designers. I am proud to say that they seem to like the job we've been doing at Planewalker on keeping their work alive.
Savage Mojo
As my debut work with Savage Mojo I translated Dungeonlands: Into The Black from Savage Worlds to the Pathfinder Role Playing Game. The work is available for free on RPG Now and is the opening chapter of the much anticipated Tomb of The Lich Queen. At the moment I am putting the final polish on Pathfinder conversions of some of their Suzerain setting.
Heroic Journey Publishing
These folks were kind enough to offer me a short series of my own, one that showcases one of my great loves, building character races. A total of four have been submitted and will be published under the common title Eldritch Races. At this point only The Runeborn is finished and available. Look for the rest in the near future!
All in all it looks like the rest of 2013 is going to be both interesting and active! I promise that the next post will come within the week!

Star-Tides is an international, information-sharing research project that promotes sustainable, affordable support to stressed populations—post-disaster, impoverished, or post-war in a domestic or foreign context for short- or long-term operations, with or without military involvement. It is an international research project to promote unity of effort among diverse organizations where there is no unity of control. As such it seeks to build bridges across boundaries between business, civil society and government stakeholders who are working toward common goals. The group focuses on seven infrastructures: shelter, water, power, integrated solar and combustion cooking, cooling/ lighting/heating, sanitation and information & communications technologies (ICT). The project aims to provide reach back "knowledge on demand" to decision-makers and those operating in the field. Medical support will be added in the future. All information collected will be made available in the public domain, with the goal of building the broadest possible communities to suggest innovative solutions to support those who are dealing with real world situations.

White House Easter Egg Roll
By admin | April 10, 2012
Yesterday morning I found myself walking from my hotel down to the White House. I decided to walk the short distance because it was a time to spend with my thoughts, and I wanted to take in the moment. I was in D.C. for the White House Easter Egg Roll, invited to do a cooking demo with the Obamas and 30,000 invited guests.
The White House never ceases to amaze me. Although I'd been there many times before, most memorably when I was invited to join Executive Chef Christeta Comerford for the State Dinner honoring Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, I still get chills when I see this historical landmark. I love the process of going through security and showing my passport to receive my credentials. Ask the people who were in line to greet the President-Julianne Moore, Forest Whitaker, numerous sports greats and celebrities-they were as giddy as the children there to meet the Easter Bunny.

Aden Issack, a native of Somalia, is a recent graduate of Casco Bay High School in Portland. As part of our Friday series of essays produced in partnership with the Telling Room in Portland, Aden Issack recalls the day life changed for his family.
My family had a big house in which even animals were welcome. Jilib was a small town - a very good place. People cared for each other. We knew our neighbors well. The weather was beautiful, always warm but not hot. We had a lake nearby. There were bright greens in Jilib-trees, grass and big mountains.
Everyday, my family and I woke up early and sat outside in our front yard. My mother would make us all black tea with fresh milk from our many goats.
My father had given me the choice of learning the Koran or taking care of the goats. I chose the goats. I learned from them. It was my job to take all of the little ones to the forest behind our house everyday for their exercise. We took long walks -sometimes going very slowly because some of the babies were still learning to walk.
Although they were animals, I knew that they loved me. They always wanted to be close to me and interact with me. I wished they could talk so that I could understand their love and their needs.
We had 30 goats, including the little ones. The names I remember are Cadan, Semin, Waxara, Kasiwanin. Cadiya was the sweetest one. She gave my family so much. She was old - nine. She and I had a lot in common - quiet, relaxed. I can't describe it, but when I hear her name now I feel like she's right next to me.
One morning my mom was visiting the neighbors to see how their night had been. My father, brothers, sister and I were sitting having our tea with goat milk when my mom entered the yard. Everything was different about her: her face, her walk. She said that we had to leave Jilib; that the war was coming.
Then she said that the only way we would be able to afford the bus tickets would be for us to sell all of our goats.
Aden Issack is brought to us by the Portland-based Telling Room, a non-profit writing center dedicated to the idea that children and young adults are natural storytellers. Every Friday this summer we'll share an essay from a student between the ages of six and 18 with a unique perspective on the world.

Goodman is known as the "Father of Health Savings Accounts" whose suggestions for healthcare reform have been heard around the country. In this video, he highlights what is wrong with Obamacare, and offers his bold ideas on sensible healthcare reform.

Associated Press Release
TUPELO, Miss. (AP) -- The FBI says a Mississippi man whose home and business were searched as part of an investigation into poisoned letters sent to the president and others has been arrested in the case.
FBI spokeswoman Deborah Madden says 41-year-old Everett Dutschke was arrested Saturday at his Tupelo home in connection with the letters, which allegedly contained ricin. They were sent last week to President Barack Obama, Sen. Roger Wicker of Mississippi and earlier to an 80-year-old Mississippi judge, Sadie Holland.
Charges were initially filed against an Elvis impersonator but then dropped. Attention then turned to Dutschke, who has ties to the former suspect and the judge and senator.

Blood Pressure Screening
Topic Overview
The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommends screening for adults 18 and older for high blood pressure.1
Tests and programs for high blood pressure vary widely in reliability. Results from automated blood pressure testing, such as you might do at a grocery store or pharmacy, may not be accurate. Any high blood pressure measurement discovered during a blood pressure screening program needs to be confirmed by a doctor or another health professional.
Rechecking blood pressure
The Seventh Joint National Committee (JNC 7) on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure recommends:2
- Healthy adults with normal blood pressure (119/79 mm Hg or below) should have their blood pressure checked at least every 1 to 2 years. This can be done during any routine medical visit.
- Adults who are prehypertensive (120–139 and/or 80–89 mm Hg) should have their blood pressure checked as often as recommended by their doctor or at least yearly. This can be done during any routine medical visit.
- Adults with other risk factors for heart disease or evidence of disease caused by high blood pressure need to have their blood pressure checked more often.
For more information, see the topics High Blood Pressure, Prehypertension, and Home Blood Pressure Test.

32 U.S. Code § 114 - Funeral honors functions at funerals for veterans
prev | next
Subject to such regulations and restrictions as may be prescribed by the Secretary concerned, the performance of funeral honors functions by members of the National Guard at funerals for veterans of the armed forces may be treated by the Secretary concerned as a Federal function for which appropriated funds may be used. Any such performance of funeral honors functions at such a funeral may not be considered to be a period of drill or training, but may be performed as funeral honors duty under section 115 of this title.
Source(Added Pub. L. 105–85, div. A, title V, § 517(a)(1),Nov. 18, 1997, 111 Stat. 1733; amended Pub. L. 105–261, div. A, title V, § 567(d),Oct. 17, 1998, 112 Stat. 2031; Pub. L. 106–65, div. A, title V, § 578(g)(1), (k)(3)(A),Oct. 5, 1999, 113 Stat. 627, 631.)

The dramatic resurgence of Democratic members in the Maine House and Senate represented one of the more stunning developments of yesterday's statewide election. Although recounts are highly likely in at least one or two Senate races, and possibly a dozen House races, it seems that the ultimate question will be not whether Democrats achieved majorities but instead, how large those majorities will be. There will be immediate consequences for legislative leadership and the state's three constitutional officers. MPBN State House Bureau Chief A.J. Higgins joins us for a closer look.
Tom Porter: So A.J., what happened last night?
A.J. Higgins: The stars really aligned against Republicans last night through a combination of careful targeting of seats by the Democrats, some poor policy choices by majority Republicans in the last Legislature and to a lesser extent, the level of voter dissatisfaction with GOP Gov. Paul LePage, who continues to be a polarizing figure here at the State House. Add all that stuff up and you've got the ingredients for a major Democratic rout of what will now be fondly recalled by a few as the majority party.
Tom Porter: So how much did Democrats improve their lot by?
A.J. Higgins: Quite a bit. But before I discuss that I would like to comment the efforts for my former employer, the Bangor Daily News for the outstanding effort they put in to updating and maintaining a running online tally of last night's statewide election results. Those of us who depend on those numbers would have been lost without them, and the paper just did an exemplary job. But having that said, they are not the final authority and these numbers remain unofficial until they are certified by the Secretary of State. But based on those unofficial returns, it appears that the Maine Senate that was formerly dominated by 19 Republicans, 15 Democrats and one unenrolled member have now changed. Now depending on how a couple of these races shake out, Democrats could control the Senate by 19 seats, 15 Republicans, and one unenrolled, or possibly hold 21 seats to the Republicans 13, and one unenrolled. By the way that one unenrolled members is Sen. Richard Woodbury of Yarmouth, who routinely votes with Democrats, so in that scenario they could wind up being one seat shy of a veto-proof super majority.
Tom Porter: And in the House?
A.J. Higgins: That was also a distinct surprise. I think Democrats wound up winning seats they didn't plan on, and lost some that they had counted as de facto victories. Before the election, the split in the House was 77 Republicans seats, Democrats held 70 seats, unenrolled legislators occupied two seats and there were two vacancies. Now, and again this is also all unofficial, but a reasonable assumption at this point seems to indicate that Democrats hold 87 seats, Republicans 59, and four independent or politcially unenrolled members. That is a huge advantage for Democrats that I don't think they've seen those kinds of numbers since 1993.
Tom Porter: So what's going to happen next for lawmakers in Augusta?
A.J. Higgins: Well, for sure, there's going to be recounts in Maine. So those recounts will get scheduled, they'll probably shake out within the next four weeks. Beyond that, we have the respective House and Senate party caucuses, and they'll meet and select leaders in the run-up to the swearing-in of the 126th Legislature on Dec. 5. In fact, Senate Republicans plan to do that Friday. Their House counterparts will meet on the 14th. Democrats in the House will meet on the 13th for leadership elections, and on Dec. 4, the Legislature's partisan caucuses will nominate a secretary of state, treasurer and attorney general. Those three constitutional officers, a new Senate president and House speaker will be elected the next day.
Tom Porter: A.J., I'm sure there's lots of memorable moments from last night, but can you choose one?
A.J. Higgins: I don't think we can close out without noting the loss of veteran Eagle Lake Democrat John L. Martin, who was handed his first defeat in Aroostook County's St. John Valley in 48 years. Some Republicans will break out the champagne and a lot of Democrats are probably in mourning, but the thing is clear is that the people of Aroostook County have lost one of most powerful legislative voices they've ever had.
Tom Porter: And with that we'll sign off. Thank you A.J.
A.J. Higgins: Thank you Tom.
