Established in 1915, Timber Creek is not the 'run of the mill' golf course. With gentle rolling fairways, it was designed to give the golfer ample room off the tee while giving the player a challenge of a lie that may be slightly uphill or downhill. The closer you get to our bent grass greens, you will find sand traps placed by the architect in places that add to the overall character of the course. With new sand, you will find it as accommodating as one could. Our greens at Timber Creek were designed for game improvement and the scratch golfer alike.
The original nine holes date back to 1913, offering beautiful views of the Rock River. The design is a 2700 yard, par 34 with lots of trees and small greens. The back nine, built in the late 60's, is a 3200 yard track par 36, with large greens and sand traps. Adding to the challenge is the Holland creek running through it, coming into play on seven of the nine holes.

God of War: Ghost of Sparta concentrates on the heroics of the gods making sure that their boundaries will always be protected from enemies.
It entails tons of challenges and journeys that the hero must carry out. This is where monstrous creatures, such as giant eels, sea monsters and other unpleasant enemies will fill your PSDP screen.

(CCBs) and how do they work? CCBs are oral medications which relax the muscles around blood vessels allowing for better blood flow through the blood vessels. They also have effects on the electrical system of the heart and can be useful in slowing or regulating fast heart rates. They are often used in the treatment of systemic hypertension. Although no randomized clinical trials have been performed in patients with PAH, CCBs have been used to treat PAH for over 25 years.
CCBs are pills which are taken by mouth. Depending on the specific medication and the dose, they may be taken from one to three times a day. Some CCBs come in intravenous form as well and are used in hospitalized patients to control heart rate and blood pressure. The CCBs used most frequently in patients with PAH are nifedipine, diltiazem or amlodopine. While early studies supported more widespread use of CCBs for treatment of PAH, it now appears that they are beneficial in only a small subset of PAH patients (less than 10%). The subset of patients with PAH who may benefit from CCBs are those who have undergone vasodilator testing during right heart catheterization and have demonstrated a very good response.
Early recommendations once favored relatively high doses of CCBs in patients with PAH but many experts now agree that these medicines should be introduced more cautiously and the dose increased only as tolerated. Patients with PAH with severe right heart failure should not use CCBs. Verapamil, a CCB which can depress heart function, should not be used in patients with PAH. Patients with PAH receiving CCBs should be monitored closely to determine the safety and efficacy of the therapy. Side effects can include dizziness, low blood pressure, and fluid retention.
CCBs must be prescribed by a physician and can be obtained at any pharmacy. All insurance pays for CCBs.
Digoxin is a drug which may assist the pumping of the heart. Digoxin also modulates the electrical activity in the heart. The use of digoxin in PAH has not been very well studied but it is sometimes used to help manage heart failure and/or control irregular heart beats.
Digoxin is a pill which is taken by mouth once a day.
Digoxin has a very narrow therapeutic range. It can cause irregular heart rhythms, nausea and changes in vision, especially when levels in the blood are increased. Digoxin can interact with other medications. A blood test to determine levels of digoxin can help determine the appropriate dose for each patient and help to avoid side effects.
Digoxin must be prescribed by a physician and can be obtained at any pharmacy. All insurance pays for digoxin.
Warfarin is a drug that "thins" the blood and prevents it from clotting normally. It has been shown that blood clots can occur in some patients with PAH and may contribute to their disease. Warfarin has not been well studied in PAH but uncontrolled studies suggest that it may be helpful for patients with idiopathic PAH. It is unknown whether this advantage (if any) outweighs the risk of bleeding complications. Use of warfarin in other diseases associated with the development of PAH has not been studied. Warfarin therapy should be considered in PAH patients treated with intravenous epoprostenol or intravenous treprostinil as it may help prevent clots from forming in their catheters.
Warfarin is a pill which is taken by mouth once a day.
Warfarin can be associated with excessive bleeding since it prevents blood from clotting normally. It interacts with many other medications, and many foods can either increase or decrease its effect. Blood tests to measure an INR (International Normalized Ratio) are required to monitor the effect of warfarin on blood clotting. This is usually obtained weekly when patients first begin warfarin therapy and then monthly once they reach a stable dose. There is no consensus as to what degree of anticoagulation is appropriate for patients with PAH, but most experts target an INR of 1.5 to 2.5. Warfarin can cause serious birth defects and should not be taken by women who are pregnant or who may become pregnant.
Warfarin must be prescribed by a physician and can be obtained at any pharmacy. All insurance pays for warfarin.
Diuretics are medicines which help treat heart failure and fluid retention (from heart failure and/or side effect of CCB). They work by stimulating the kidneys to increase urine output. There are several different types of diuretics and they come in pill and intravenous form.
Diuretics are taken one to two times a day by mouth. Diuretics are used in PAH patients with or without evidence of heart failure (e.g. swelling in the legs, fluid in the abdomen). Diuretics, along with careful attention to salt and fluid intake, help maintain the proper amount of fluid in the circulation.
Rapid or excessive use of diuretics can lead to dehydration, low blood pressure, chemical imbalances in the blood, and problems with kidney function. Blood tests to monitor chemistry and kidney function should be obtained regularly in patients receiving diuretic therapy.
Diuretics must be prescribed by a physician and can be obtained at any pharmacy. All insurance pays for diuretics.
Oxygen is required for life and is a component of the air we breathe. Low oxygen levels can cause pulmonary blood vessels to constrict (narrow) and this may worsen PAH. It is best to maintain an oxygen saturation of at least 90% or higher in patients with PAH when and if possible. This can be achieved in most patients by supplemental oxygen therapy.
Supplemental oxygen is supplied in tanks which must be prepared and delivered by an oxygen supply company. The oxygen is inhaled by patients via a nasal cannula or a face mask which is attached to the oxygen tank by plastic tubing. At home, patients use a machine called a condenser which supplies oxygen indefinitely, although it requires electricity to work. When patients are outside of the home, oxygen is supplied by portable tanks that last for a few hours only, depending upon how much oxygen is required. The rate at which oxygen is set to flow varies from patient to patient and is prescribed by a physician. Usual flow rates range from 1-6 liters/min.
Depending on the flow rate, oxygen delivered via nasal cannula can cause dryness in the nose which can lead to irritation and occasionally nosebleeds. Humidification of the oxygen minimizes this problem. While it can be bulky and may last only a few hours, portable oxygen allows patients to use oxygen while going about their normal activities outside of the home.
Oxygen therapy must be prescribed by a physician. Insurers generally require that patients have a measurement of blood oxygen to qualify them for therapy before they will provide it.

LANDOVER, Md. – And so here they go again, the New York Giants, the defending Super Bowl champs, writing a story that pretty much writes itself by now, begging for the questions that are easily formed to be asked once again, making this thing so much harder than it has to be and should be.
Once holding a three-game lead in the win column in the NFC East, they're now up only one game after Monday night's penalty-riddled, mistake-filled 17-16 loss to the Washington Redskins.
Robert Griffin III is still giving the Giants (7-5) fits. And now he and the Redskins (6-6) are only a game back. And so are the Cowboys, whom the Giants seemed to put away with a win late in October.
RECAP: RGIII rallies Redskins past Giants
BLEEP: Dan Snyder animated after big win
"In typical Giants fashion, we're going to make it difficult for ourselves, going back and forth and things like that," wide receiver Victor Cruz said in a postgame locker room that was less aggravated and more at peace with an outcome they tried to avoid but could now see coming in hindsight. "At one point in the season last year, we became consistent and became a pretty good force on offense and defensively, as well. We know at some point we're going to get to that, and we just got to get through the grind of this season, get through the grind of these last four, and finish the season strong."
Do they know that will be the case? Should they know that will be the case? Or are they just hoping that will be the case?
Yeah, that's what happened last season when they started to play smart football in all three phases of the game and rattled off six straight victories from the Christmas Eve defeat of the New York Jets through the Super Bowl XLVI upset of the New England Patriots.
And, yeah, in 2007, they strung four straight wins together in the postseason in a run eerily similar to this one from last season.
RGIII: 'God is on our side'
But it didn't happen in the three years between those championship seasons, when this team sputtered down the stretch. And right now, they're sputtering again, having lost three of their last four games.
They're not playing smart, solid football. Not consistently anyway.
Monday night they were flagged for a season-high nine penalties, the most costly of which were a pair of holds on backup offensive lineman Jim Cordle on kickoff returns and a holding penalty on left tackle Will Beatty that negated an 11-yard catch by Martellus Bennett on third-and-10 on a potential go-ahead drive late in the fourth quarter.
Though Beatty grabbed linebacker Rob Jackson around the neck, he thought he had kept his feet moving well enough to avoid the call. He was wrong.
"I didn't agree with the call, but there was nothing I could do. There's not a judge and jury out there," Beatty said, adding, "The ref threw the flag at the last second and I was like, 'We've been doing this all game. We've been going at each other. It's not like this was something new.'"
So instead of first-and-10 at the Redskins' 46-yard line with 4:32 to play and needing only a field goal to take the lead, the Giants faced a third-and-20. A screen pass designed to create a manageable fourth down instead went for only 4 yards.
They punted. And never saw the ball again.
If they don't start playing smart football and get out of this rut they promised they'd avoid this season, they won't see the top of the division again.
"I don't know what happened in the second half. We certainly didn't come out to play," said coach Tom Coughlin, who obviously was riled by the number of mental mistakes his team made. "Penalties, sloppy football."
Even when they played good football in the first half, it was still sloppy football.
To wit, on a touchdown drive in the first half, they had to overcome three penalties for 20 yards, which means they actually went 105 yards instead of the 85 on the stat sheet for that drive.
They did it then. But it was just a matter of too many penalties to try to overcome and too many chances for Griffin to play keep-away. He did that with a huge 17-yard slant to Pierre Garcon just before the 2-minute warning. And then rookie running back Alfred Morris ran through Chris Canty's one-armed tackle attempt to ice the game.
Maybe the unseasonably warm weather Monday confused the Giants into thinking it's not yet time to start playing smarter and more aggressively. Or maybe it was the injuries that are limiting defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul and Kenny Phillips, as well as the knee injury suffered Monday night by right tackle Sean Locklear that could end his season.
Whatever the case, the Giants are back where they're used to being at this time of year. And much as they'll tell you this week that's where they like to be because that's when they play their best ball, there's just no reason for them to be here right now, locked in a tight divisional race they should've clinched by now.
"We talk finish, finish, finish, finish, finish," Coughlin said, reiterating the mantra from last season. "I thought we could do that."
Well, now they have to. And they still have a chance to do so. As offensive line coach Pat Flaherty said while putting his arm around very frustrated center David Baas on the way out of the locker room, "There's a lot of football left. We're right there."
And so are their division rivals.
"There's a lot more heat on us than we need," Beatty said.

Interim Enterprise Applications Group Director
EAG Campus Location: 630 South Broadway
UK Campus Guide Map — MapQuest Map and Directions
The Enterprise Applications Group (EAG) is the unit within UKAT charged with supporting the key administrative computing systems for the University of Kentucky. Our primary focus is the integrated Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software from SAP. This software was initially implemented at the University through the IRIS Project (Integrated Resource Information Systems) from 2004-2008.
The EAG is responsible for enhancing, maintaining, and supporting the functional operations of the ERP system to accomplish and further the goals and objectives of the various operational units across campus. We work closely with other UKIT units to continuously improve the administrative computing environment for the University.
Key Components
Key components of the current system include Business Warehouse and Business Objects, Student Life Cycle Management (SLCM), Financials (FI), Grants Management (GM), HR/Payroll (HR), Procurement/Materials Management (MM), Plant Maintenance (PM), and Supplier Relationship Management (SRM). Because the EAG is grounded in developing and supporting the ERP, in addition to UKIT staff, other members of the EAG are assigned from the major business units of the University.
Core functions of the EAG are to:
- Promote optimization, integration and standardization of processes and information;
- Monitor and maintain functional operation of the SAP system;
- Work with all relevant IT units to promote optimal performance of the system;
- Work with campus units to support their reporting needs;
- Work with business owners to enhance currently installed modules, and implement additional modules that further the goals and objectives of the University;
- Provide appropriate training for users of the SAP system;
- Keep current on relevant standards, technologies, and products; and
- Promote the highest levels of data integrity.
Our goal is to provide the University with a high quality, integrated administrative system that will support, promote and further the activities of the entire University of Kentucky campus community.

Add your eyes! Actually, this would have been easier had I added them before the nose. The little candy sprinkles aren't the easiest to handle. You could also use mini chocolate chips, poking the pointy end into the ice cream. I first tried to make frosting dots for eyes, but wasn't happy with the results (I needed a smaller tip, or they would have been fine). It is up to you!

Further readings for the Canon EOS 650D
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
Canon EOS 750D (Rebel T6i) sensor review: First Canon APS-C format camera to offer 12-stop dynamic range
Announced alongside the slightly better-equipped EOS 760D (Rebel T6s in the US), the 750D shares many of its sibling's features, including a new 24.2-Mpix CMOS sensor and hybrid AF system, but it is aimed at beginners and has a price tag to match. Read on to find out how well this new model's sensor performs.
Canon was the last maker to introduce a mirrorless camera to the market and after something of a false start with EOS M, the company has released an update with the same Hybrid CMOS II sensor as the company's Rebel SL1 (100D). Read on to find out how the new, Asia only, EOS M2 performs.
Introduced in July this year, the EOS 70D at first sight seems like a regular update to the maker's mid-range EOS 60D model. It shares a number of features with the firm's existing SLR range including a 19-point cross-type phase detection AF system, a 3-inch (1.040M dot) articulated touchscreen and built-in WiFi connectivity with remote viewing and image transfer. The camera can also shoot at up to 7fps and has 1080/30p video recording with stereo sound using an optional external microphone.
Canon EOS 700D/REBEL T5i/Kiss X7i review: New 'EOS for Beginners' flagship DSLR offers no improvement in sensor scores
Replacing the 650D the 700D becomes the new flagship DSLR in their 'EOS for Beginners' range. Continuing to feature a 18-megapixel APS-C 'Hybrid CMOS' sensor, 100 - 25,600 ISO range, 5fps burst shooting and 9-point AF the new model is almost identical however. Costing $1099 it's up against stiff competition, with rivals such as the Nikon D5200 and Sony Alpha 58 packing more resolution for less money.
Sony seems to have a liking for doing things differently to other makers: hybrid cameras with bigger sensors, compact cameras with serious, professional attitude and single lens reflex cameras with fixed, translucent mirrors. Its new SLT Alpha 58 camera shows just how good a strategy this is, close to the quality of their Alpha 77 at half the price!
Canon EOS 700D (Rebel T5i) & EOS 100D (Rebel SL1) preview: Has Canon saved the entry-level Digital SLR game?
As the boom in hybrid mirrorless cameras continues and some have questioned the future of the entry-level DSLRs, can the launch of the smallest and lightest DSLR to date revitalize this market? We preview the key specifications of the new super small Canon 100D (Rebel SL1) and take a look at the new EOS 700D (Rebel T5i) and updated EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM 'kit' lens at the same time.
A noise benchmark of 187 digital cameras by Peter van den Hamer
DxOMark Camera Sensor is a raw benchmark for camera bodies by DxO Labs. The benchmark is "raw" because it measures image quality using Raw output files. It is also raw as DxO's data can be used to cook up camera reviews that cover more aspects than image quality.
Canon was the last major maker to embrace the hybrid or 'mirrorless' camera market. As a somewhat sober debut, designed for those who are new to photography, the EOS M adopts an 18-megapixel APS-C format in a compact body but boasts a number of advanced features including a 31-point hybrid AF system for stills and video and a touch sensitive 3-inch LCD. While it's clear this camera doesn't compete directly with the firm's DSLRs, how does it stack up against the competition that don't have the same volume of DSLR sales to protect?
Committed to retaining its sales lead in numerous countries, Canon views its new EOS 650D as a strategically important product. What improvements can we see with respect to its sensor, which Canon claims is new? How does this latest camera in the EOS line compare with its predecessor, the EOS 600D, and with its rivals, the Nikon D3200 and the Sony SLT-A65? The answers lie in our sensor test results for the 650D.
Canon's annual update of its amateur APS-C D-SLR and successor in a long line of cameras (EOS 500D, 550D, 600D), the Canon EOS 650D brings with it a few well-thought-out new features. By contrast, there are no surprises in store about the 18Mpix APS-C sensor that it seems to have inherited from the EOS 600D. Some first impressions in our preview.

Canon Technology Lag
I might offer the guess that some years ago some bright MBA/Engineer at Canon came to the boss and said, "You know, we can do a lot of cleanup work in processing and software that will extend the life of our cameras and lenses. That way we can take a camera generation vacation on investing in R&D and upgraded production facilities and harvest profits until we simply have to change the formula." Just guessing.

What happened to Canon?
This is a long time in the making but how is it that the new D650 scores the exact same as the 8 year old 20D. They both get beat by the smaller sensor E-M5. I am surprised Canon owners are not complaining louder about this.
Someone else mentioned the lack of APS-C lenses. This has been an issue for both Canon and Nikon. Basically they have both focused on zooms for APS-C and forced owners to rely on FF primes to cover their needs. Unfortunately the FF focal length and aperture don't always match what you need with 1.5 crop.
m43 seems to understand the need for native lenses as they have a much better selection of primes. It will be interesting to see how much support for new APS-C lenses will exist going forward. APS-C is getting pushed from both mirrorless at one end and FF at the other end. Will Canon and Nikon come out with new APS-C lenses or will we just see refreshes with better focusing for liveview.

Re: What happened to Canon?
If you go to Camera Sensor Ratings
and filter by Nikon, you'll see an upward trend: newer cameras are clearly better than older cameras.
If you filter by Canon, you see a basically horizontal trend. No significant improvement (as a whole) over the years.
Don't know what's going on in Canon... maybe they lost their key engineers or are just resting on their past laurels?
Added by AaronMC | October 15 , 2012
Re: What happened to Canon?
And us Canon owners have been making a lot of noise. The DPReview forums are filled with people complaining.
Of course they are immediately followed by self-important pricks talking about how "the camera doesn't matter" because they think that it makes them sound wise and artistic.
I, for example, after complaining on my blog for nearly two years have finally ditched all of my Canon gear. I have kept only my old 20D and the 60mm EF-S macro because they were my first SLR combo. Sentimental reasons and all.
Added by hoodlum | October 15 , 2012
Re: What happened to Canon?
When it comes to RAW the 20D was ahead of its time. Unfortunately, Canon RAW quality is still the same today. Zero improvement over 8 years.
Added by DXOMARK | October 31 , 2012
Re: What happened to Canon?
Reason is very simple.
Canon want to spend the absolute minimum in R&D and wants to play it very safe when coming out with new cameras.
She wants to do it safe, slow and last.
Their mirror-less camera is a BIG joke ! :-[

D650 and siblings
Sensors are now pretty damn good,have been for a long time and unless you are shooting in outrageously bad conditions they will out perform you.
I suggest that better lenses are now far more of an issue as even the best of lenses have faults and the modestly priced lenses are almost unusable on the cameras with better sensors.

Re: D650 and siblings
I disagree.
I have a multitude of cameras, and even in mildly difficult environments, I bump up against ALL of my APS-C gear's abilities. At parties, ISO 4000-6400 is common, and even the Pentax K-5 produces images that are pretty smudgy at that level.
My photos get easier and better with every generation. I agree that some time in the future, all sensors will be good enough. That day is not today, though.

Lenses are definately the top issue at this moment, Canon being quite strong at that end; but you can't simply ignore the Sensor performance. Outcome on Canon 650D is really bad. I mean things are not very clear on DXOMark website but if you look at dpreview on all ISO settings, you will see Nikon D5100 is beating Canon D650 with huge margins. Even ISO 800 is quite noisy for my liking.
Having said that, I was not really expacting much from 650D, I had this kind of impression Canon won't make any progress on APSC sensors on quality (improvements are on the other grounds) and DXOMark score will be disappointing (fairly) as they are more focused on FF. They are projecting 650D to people who just want a smaller and lighter body to go with their existing professional gear, or someone at beginer's level, who don't go to review websites.

@mrahmo: "my eyes are not a measuring machine"
Very well said, measuring image quality is real silly thing and more silly are us human who got eyes to appreciate and understand an art but still craving to read the numbers. Having said that, 650D's output is quite disappointing on all grounds, even at DPReview. Don't buy it if IQ beyong ISO 400 is any level important for you:

I recently purchased the Canon T4I...and I shoot Nikon D7000 and the D300. My observations from the field:
1) Canon menu system is more easily navigated than Nikon's. Touch is convenient.
2) Image quality is very good for this pro-sumer camera. 18mp is more than enough, imho.
3) I really like the built-in HDR and Handheld Night shot settings...very easy to get quality results (great for beginners).
4) When shooting night-time with Bulb setting, T4I has a built-in timer...VERY convenient - neither Nikon D7000 or D300 has that feature.
5) Light; articulating LCD; live-view; Full HD video...what's not to like?
1) 5fps (ok, maybe not a con, but both my Nikons shoot faster - 6 & 8 fps, respectively).
2) Fewer buttons than the D300 or D7000 (could be a plus depending on your perspective).
3) No secondary LCD (but I think the touch screen makes up for it, imho).
I'm sure I could come up with more pros/cons. Overall, though, I like this camera. I'm using it more and more and I'm very pleased with the results I'm getting. Would it replace my Nikons? No. But I consider the T4I a great second camera, and its ease of use makes it a great first-responder when I'm in a hurry.

Arrogance... or obsolescence
I agree with you, Aaron: Canon hasn't come up with any ground breaking consumer camera in years. Whether it's arrogance or just lack of know-how it's diffucult to ascertain.
Regardless, they are falling behind. They are still ahead the game due to their sheer presence, but they need to react and soon. Camera business is not what it used to be in the days of film photography. Now it is a fast moving game, and you have to keep up with a higly competitive market.
I'm an ex-Canon user already, and in the process of liquidating the last Canon lenses I still have.

What is your complain about D650 Aaron?
This camera is pack of features, 18MP is already huge size, and high enough for resolution if your good quality prime lenses can provide.
Hybrid AF in LiveView and Movie mode, gonna be more precise compare to CAF in m43 and other systems.
IQ: no one is aware of, so you can't complain about something you never know
Tild and swival high res LCD that touchable.
Really want to know what bothors you so much :D

"Hybrid AF in LiveView and Movie mode, gonna be more precise compare to CAF in m43 and other systems."
Not really. Current CDAF in m4/3 and other mirrorless is very accurate. The hybrid AF in the new Canons plus the new lenses with stepper motors is meant to increase AF speed in liveview and movie mode. Alas, Canon's CDAF/liveview still lags m4/3:
Not only that, all m4/3 lenses are CDAF optimized and most are movie friendly, i.e quiet focusing.
Added by Hakeem | October 09 , 2012
Re: What is your complain about D650 Aaron?
ronnbot, I agree with you ..
but please check the date when i posted, it was based on hybrid AF system working in other cameras and their precision and functionality in Continuous AF modes. Later AF tests on various review sites confirms 650D implementation is not mature yet.
Added by AaronMC | October 15 , 2012
Re: What is your complain about D650 Aaron?
Bit behind the curve, here. This is the first I have seen of this thread.
Canon annoys me because they charge lots of money for old technology. They aren't pushing anything forward. They aren't innovating. This made me actively angry because I was invested in the Canon system, making jumping systems difficult.
I waited for years, hoping that Canon would find the mojo that made them the go-to digital SLR company for the better part of the 2000's. It was all for naught. Speeds remain the same, lenses are the same, ISO performance is the same. WIth more and more of our cameras turning to solid-state technologies, this should be a era of immense innovation and change in imaging tools. Smaller, better, faster, stronger, etc.
I shoot photos at parties a lot. When I can get DOUBLE the ISO performance out of a Nikon or Sony as from a Canon, that's a big deal.
But that's beside the point. The 650D and every camera the company has released is indicative of an arrogant company who thinks that people who are already invested in the system will simply continue to buy the SAME DAMNED CAMERA, year after year, for the same high prices.
Well I'm not. As I mentioned, I got tired of waiting. I sold my Canon stuff, never to return.
Added by AaronMC | June 08 , 2012
Arrogance Much?
It's as though the massive success of the 5D Mark II absolutely blinded Canon with arrogance. They aren't upgrading their wide-angle lenses. They aren't expanding their APS-C selection. Their cameras haven't been competitive in nearly two years.
If I hadn't already made the choice to leave the Canon system, products like this would have made it very easy.
