Gunmen kill suspected Palestinian collaborator on his way to court
Palestinian gunmen on Tuesday kidnapped and killed a suspected Palestinian agent who was accused of spying for the Israeli intelligence apparatus.
Palestinian sources said that a number of gunmen kidnapped Rami Yaghmor while Palestinian policemen were escorting him to court and shot him at the head from close range.
Sources close to the Fatah Movement said that Yaghmor had joined the Movement's military wing - al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades - and then delivered information to the Israeli intelligence (Shin Beth) that led to the arrest of a number of activists.
They said that Rami moved to Jericho at the pretext that the occupation authorities were chasing him and there he conveyed sensitive information on Aqsa Martyrs' activists that led to their arrest in that West Bank city.
Palestinian security forces arrested him on his return to Ramallah where he confessed to being an agent to Israel, Hamas sources reported.
Yaghmor was on his way to stand trial when he was kidnapped near the Am'ari refugee camp. (albawaba.com)

Ask the Chairman - Electing a deceased Scout
Q. Greetings Ray,
Our troop recently lost a Scout due to a climbing accident. Trevor had completed his Eagle Scout this spring at the age of 14. Our troop did not have a spring election this year. One of his goals in Scouting was to be part of the OA. He was a great leader and mentor to other Scouts. He did much volunteer work in the community. I have personally known Trevor for 7 years and can vouch for his dedication to Scouting. I have been an Arrowman since 1982 and would have been honored to have him as a fellow member. Is it possible for him to be elected since he is still registered with our troop? If so, could another member such as myself complete an Ordeal in his stead to have membership bestowed upon him posthumously?
A. Tim,
Thank you for your kind note and the warm tribute it included to the life and legacy of Trevor.
I am sad to learn of his passing due to a climbing accident but the creation of a posthumous induction is not possible. There are no honorary members of the Order. Nor may someone go through the Ordeal process for another. The idea of induction has to do with a person's commitment to a life of future service, which is not possible in this case.
However, the sentiment of what you are trying to do is clearly honorable and deserving, so I would use the occasion of your next troop election to prepare the boys to carry on the legacy of their friend, Trevor, by participating in seriously selecting their next group of peers to proceed through the induction process and then by carrying forward Trevor's legacy of service to others. This would be a great way to remember a great life of a kind and generous Scout.
Let me make another suggestion. When a dear friend of mine, national vice chief of the Order of the Arrow, Josh Sain passed away in October 1997, members of the Order worked hard to help the National Council create the Spirit of the Eagle Award.
Members of your troop may wish to look over the requirements to see if Trevor's situation is appropriate for this honor and keep the fires burning in Trevor's memory by applying on his behalf. The certificate is beautiful and meaningful and can be presented to the family in a solemn environment and evoke the proper memory of the legacy of love and support Trevor shared with his friends in Scouting. The strong connection with the Order is very present in the Spirit of the Eagle Award, as it was created specifically to help address this kind of situation we experienced through Josh's death and looked for ways to remember him.
Please look into it on behalf of Trevor.
And may God bless you and the members of your troop as you hike down the Scouting trail together.

Princes Cruises is reacting to the upsurge in the cruise industry in China, as its third Royal Class ship is to be built and sent to China, where her homeport will be Shanghai. The name of this ship will be Majestic Princess, although will have a Chinese name on the hull, and the price in all will total €600 million.
The company believes they are the first cruise line to offer a premium cruise option to holidaymakers in China, although we suspect that rival companies beg to differ. Having said that, while some of them are only moving older ships to the region, it is good to see Princess Cruises investing such a huge sum of money to offer a brand new ship to China.
We don't yet know the full Majestic Princess details, although we do know it will share many of the features as its two sister ships. Having said that, there will have to be a few differences because the Chinese market is different to those of us in the Western World.
There is to be a huge focus on food, such as offering traditional Chinese dishes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. There is to also be T'ai chi at sea, subtitled Hollywood movies, ballroom dancing, Chinese satellite TV channels and so much more.

January 14, 2013
There's a new mystery at the Academy this winter. We have a new set of dinosaur fossils in the Fossil Prep Lab in Dinosaur Hall, and scientists have yet to determine what species it is. Though they have tantalizing clues.
This exciting process will take place in full public view, so visitors can watch, take photographs, and ask questions of our staff. Those able to visit frequently will see the progress unfold week to week and month to month as pieces of a jawbone, rows of teeth, and an upper arm are revealed bit by bit.
Jason Poole, who oversees the lab and has participated in dinosaur digs around the world, says the fossils were unearthed in Wyoming in 2011 by a team from the New Jersey State Museum in Trenton. They belong to a 25-foot-long, duck-billed, plant-eating dinosaur that lived 67 to 70 million years ago. It's of the hadrosaur family, the same family as the fully mounted Corythosaurus casuarius that's in Dinosaur Hall now and also Hadrosaurus foulkii, the world's first mounted dinosaur—created and displayed right here at the Academy in 1868.
But scientists won't know the species of hadrosaur it is until they can fully see and examine the fossils. Even though they have only a small portion of the dinosaur, scientists are confident they will be able to identify it.
"From neck to tail, all hadrosaurids look alike," Poole says. "But we have a good bit of the skull, which makes it a lot easier to identify the species."
This mystery dinosaur should be fully exposed by the end of the summer. Meanwhile, to learn about the science and art of visualizing a living animal based on fragmentary fossils, check out the exhibit Drawn to Dinosaurs: Hadrosaurus foulkii in the Art of Science Gallery starting February 2.

Corydon G. Clark, M.D. Took my three young boys out of his care because of his "hot tub therapy" Las Vegas , Nevada
They said that nothing weird happened, they just talked and relaxed in the hot tub. As time went on though, I continued to feel weirded out by the whole idea of it. I finally quit taking them to Dr. Clark because of this freaked out feeling. Imagine my shock to go online to see what Dr. Clark is doing these days, and find that he was disciplined by the California Medical Board for the very thing that made me feel so uneasy -- his 'hot tub therapy'. No, my sons have never said Dr. Clark did anything to any of them. And I don't know if he did or didn't.
I just know that my feeling was that he 'might' be doing something, or 'might' be intending that at some point. Dr. Clark himself seemed a wonderful Dr. during all the years he was with my sons. I just couldn't get past that weirded out feeling when he began his 'hot tub therapy". And it seems my feelings were pretty much on target, seeing how he was later 'disciplined' for it. Dr. Clark says it was all innocent, nothing happened. If so.... why did he settle the matter rather than go to trial?? Why is now practicing in Nevada?? Why is he being allowed to practice AT ALL, anywhere?? My concern is also for any current patient he is treating. Do they realize his past?

text: Went for "date night" they had a more than fair set menu for appetizer, entree, and dessert and even a bottle of wine for only $52! They start you with a bit of bread and homemade honey and maple syrup butter that is to die for! We had the mussels as our first dish, and I must say that was the most I had ever seen in a starter dish! Kinda spicy but sort of sweet because of the chile coconut curry-absolutely delicious! I had the "fruit de mer" and my boyfriend had the "Hanger steak", both of which were divine! We ended the meal with the red velvet cake to go, because we were both too full to even consider having any at the table-maybe just a bite :) The service was superb, and we will definitely be back for seconds!

Bedding mullions have been produced by compression parallel to bedding in the hinge region of a large recumbent fold. Geometrically, the mullions are a combination of parasitic folding, with characteristic gadrooned profile, and cleavage planes. The cleavage is not an axial plane structure, but where fully developed produces a perfect slate fabric in rocks of appropriate lithology. The mullions are found on both sides of a bed of inferior slate sandwiched between two beds of good roofing slate. Boudinage structure results where the mullions are exactly back to back, and the planes of separation provided by the cleavage are infilled with coarse calcite. The slates are interbedded and interlaminated with limestone. Such boudins are unusual in that they occupy the hinge region of a fold and result from compression parallel, rather than at right angles, to the bedding.

Thermal decomposition of citric acid, trans- and cis-aconitic acid has been studied using the TG-MS, TG-FTIR and DSC techniques. The measurements were carried out in an argon atmosphere over a temperature range of 293–673 K. The influence of the acid structures and configurational geometry on stability of the transition products and pathways of thermal transformations of the studied compounds studied is discussed.

The enthalpies of mixing of six kinds of amino acid (glycine, L-alanine, L-valine, L-serine, L-threonine, and L-proline) with glycerol in aqueous solutions and the enthalpies of diluting of amino acid and glycerol aqueous solutions have been determined by flow microcalorimetry at 298.15 K. Employing McMillan–Mayer theory, the enthalpies of mixing and diluting have been used to calculate heterogeneous enthalpic pairwise interaction coefficients (hxy) between amino acids and glycerol in aqueous solutions. Combining hxy values of amino acids with glycol in the previous study, the variations of the hxy values between amino acids and glycerol have been interpreted from the point of view of solute–solute interactions.

This article demonstrates how important it is to find the optimal heating conditions when electrospun organic/inorganic composite fibers are annealed to get ceramic nanofibers in appropriate quality (crystal structure, composition, and morphology) and to avoid their disintegration. Polyvinylpyrrolidone [PVP, (C6H9NO)n] and ammonium metatungstate [AMT, (NH4)6[H2W12O40]·nH2O] nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning aqueous solutions of PVP and AMT. The as-spun fibers and their annealing were characterized by TG/DTA-MS, XRD, SEM, Raman, and FTIR measurements. The 400–600 nm thick and tens of micrometer long PVP/AMT fibers decomposed thermally in air in four steps, and pure monoclinic WO3 nanofibers formed between 500 and 600 °C. When a too high heating rate and heating temperature (10 °C min−1, 600 °C) were used, the WO3 nanofibers completely disintegrated. At lower heating rate but too high temperature (1 °C min−1, 600 °C), the fibers broke into rods. If the heating rate was adequate, but the annealing temperature was too low (1 °C min−1, 500 °C), the nanofiber morphology was excellent, but the sample was less crystalline. When the optimal heating rate and temperature (1 °C min−1, 550 °C) were applied, WO3 nanofibers with excellent morphology (250 nm thick and tens of micrometer long nanofibers, which consisted of 20–80 nm particles) and crystallinity (monoclinic WO3) were obtained. The FTIR and Raman measurements confirmed that with these heating parameters the organic matter was effectively removed from the nanofibers and monoclinic WO3 was present in a highly crystalline and ordered form.

The dehydration behaviors of FGD gypsums from three power plants were investigated at N2 atmosphere (autogenous and negligible partial pressure of water,
$$ P_{{{\text{H}}_{ 2} {\text{O}}}} $$
) in non-isothermal and isothermal condition. The dehydration of gypsum proceeded through one step, i.e., CaSO4·2H2O → γ-CaSO4 (γ-anhydrite) or two steps, i.e., CaSO4·2H2O → CaSO4·0.5H2O (hemihydrate) → γ-CaSO4 depending on temperature and
$$ P_{{{\text{H}}_{ 2} {\text{O}}}} $$
. The discrepancies of three FGD gypsums on dehydration behavior were very likely due to the different crystalline characteristics (size and habit) and impurities, such as fly ash and limestone. Experimental data of non-isothermal analysis have been fitted with two 'model-free' kinetic methods and those of isothermal analysis have been fitted with Avrami and linear equation. The apparent empirical activation energies (Ea) suggest that the transition from gypsum to hemihydrate is mainly controlled by nucleation and growth mechanism, while the transition from gypsum to γ-anhydrite is mostly followed by phase boundary mechanism.

Lubricating oil additives based on boron compounds are promising materials for lubrication due to their tribological advantages such as antiwear efficiency, good film strength, and high temperature resistance. This article deals with the preparation of zinc borate particles that are well dispersed and colloidally stabilized in mineral oil. This method starts with preparing two inverse emulsions (water-in-oil) with sorbitan monostearate (Span 60) as a surfactant, light neutral oil as a continuous phase, and the aqueous solutions of borax decahydrate (Na2B4O7·10H2O) and zinc nitrate (Zn(NO3)2·6H2O) as the dispersed phases. The produced particles were zinc borate crystals having both rod-like and spherical morphologies, and the diameters of spherical particles were changing between 20 and 30 nm. FTIR spectra of the obtained particles showed the characteristic peaks of trihedral borate (B(3)-O) and tetrahedral borate (B(4)-O) groups as well as the specific peaks of the sorbitan monostearate. TG showed 30.42% and 22.08% mass loss at 600 °C for the samples prepared by inverse emulsion and precipitation techniques, respectively. The endothermic peak at 50 °C is observed due to the melting of sorbitan monostearate and the heat of melting is evaluated as −3.50 J/g. Tribological studies revealed that sorbitan monostearate not only outperformed as a dispersing agent of inorganic particles, but also it proved to be an anti-wear agent. Zinc borate produced by precipitation decreased the wear scar diameter from 1.402 to 0.639 mm and the friction coefficient from 0.099 to 0.064. The inverse emulsion was effective in decreasing wear scar diameter and the friction coefficient by lowering them to 0.596 and 0.089 mm, respectively.

The characterisation of the ionic compound of lithium chloride, LiCl, through XRD, SEM, DSC, TG, DTG and TG-MS analysis is reported. The results show that nominally anhydrous LiCl particles can readily absorb water from the ambient atmosphere to form a surface layer of lithium chloride mono-hydrate, LiCl·H2O. Solid surface-hydrated LiCl is de-dehydrated via a two-stage mechanism at low heating rates and via a single-stage mechanism at high heating rates. Molten LiCl exhibits substantial evaporation at temperatures below its nominal boiling point, with the rate of evaporation increasing significantly before complete evaporation occurs. The melting process of de-hydrated LiCl is marginally affected by the heating rate; whilst the evaporation process is strongly affected by the heating rate and also dependent on the quantity of material used and the flow rate of the gas passed over it. Heating of surface-hydrated LiCl up to the point of evaporation under a flow of argon and under a flow of ambient air gives identical results, proposing the possibility of performing LiCl-based processes in an air environment. The enthalpies and activation energies for the processes of surface de-hydration, melting, and high-temperature evaporation are determined. The results are consistent with the following thermal phase evolution:
$$ [{\text{LiCl + LiCl}} \cdot {\text{H}}_{{\text{2}}} {\text{O}}]_{{{\text{solid}}}} \to [{\text{LiCl}}]_{{{\text{solid}}}} \to [{\text{LiCl}}]_{{{\text{liquid}}}} \mathop\rightarrow\limits^{{{{\text{H}}_{{\text{2}}} {\text{O}} \downarrow {\text{ HCl}} \uparrow}}}[{\text{LiCl-LiOH}}]_{{{\text{liquid}}}} \mathop\rightarrow\limits^{{{{\text{H}}_{{\text{2}}} {\text{O}} \uparrow}}}[{\text{LiCl-Li}}_{{\text{2}}} {\text{O}}]_{{{\text{liquid}}}} \to {\text{Gas}} $$

In the present work, the conventional method of increasing the efficiency of solid-phase synthesis of lithium–zinc ferrites that involves multiple intermediate grinding of briquetted reaction mixtures annealed at high temperatures is compared with a new radiation-thermal (RT) method using a high-power pulsed beam of accelerated electrons for heating of reaction mixtures. An analysis of the TG(M)/DTG(M) curves recorded in a magnetic field demonstrates that the efficiency of Li0.3Zn0.4Fe2.3O4 synthesis from Li2CO3–Fe2O3–ZnO mechanical mixture at a temperature of 700 °C during 120 min is equivalent to thermal annealing at 800 °C, but with the triple annealing duration.

A newly synthesized copper-complex exhibiting nonlinear optical properties, crystalline nature, and generating interest as a material for non-linear optical applications was investigated. As thermal stability studies are indispensable before attempting any laser-assisted processing experiments, the thermal behavior of 2,2′-dihydroxy azobenzene with Cu2+ cations that are found to organize themselves as non-central symmetric crystallites, was investigated. The thin films were deposited on silicon substrates by matrix-assisted pulsed laser evaporation using a Nd:YAG laser working at 266 and 355 nm. Thermal analysis of the bulk compound indicates a higher thermal stability in argon flow when compared to the air atmosphere; as well, since, the adhesion of the compound onto the substrate enhances the bonding, the thermal stability of the Cu complex increases. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, spectroscopic ellipsometry, and ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy investigations were also performed.

Our recent developments concerning the assessment of parchments deterioration using DSC are reported. Measurements performed on samples in excess water conditions, in static air and gas flow provided qualitative and quantitative information on parchment ageing and deterioration at microscopic and mesoscopic level, when assembly of fibres/fibrils is weakened, partially and eventually completely lost, and at molecular level, when triple helix uncoiling occurs. A damage ranking scale based on a large collection of DSC parameters obtained by investigating artificially aged samples was set up. Deconvolution of the DSC thermal denaturation peaks in excess water enabled evaluating and discriminating stability of parchments with similar damage levels. Further experimental evidences such as softening of the crystalline fraction of collagen, thermal-oxidation and collagen gelatinisation were detected by DSC measurements in gas flow and static air, and related to specific deterioration patterns. DSC measurement of wet samples provided an objective and reliable method for evaluating parchment shrinkage temperature overcoming the limitations of conventional methods.

I just wanted to shout out to everyone that I have a nsv. I have a red blouse that I dearly love it is that stretchy cotton. In Aug when I would try and wear it it pulled at the buttons all the way down and I would spend the entire day tugging at it but refused to not wear it even though it was 'snug'. Today as I was dressing for work I pulled it out and put it on and -- oh my gosh-- it button up withou pulling and layed against my skin like it should. I never once had to pull it down all day!
It made me full good all day, so much so I even felt 'skinny' it was the most euphoric feeling I have had outside of a glass of wine...
Thanks for listening

Thank you for the good vibes, ladies! My litttle baby has a good strong heartbeat of 181! When I laughed, the little fella/gal moved those little arms and legs. I immediatly started sobbing, and I really dont think I have ever cried with happiness before. I coudlnt' stop. My new doctor is absolutely lovely! She has been working there for 20 years and actually trained my former obgyn. They did a pap smear (I had one in august, dangit ) and took some blood and urine. They said everything looked good.
I am still crying off and on. I will try to post the u/s pic later. Thanks so much for your support, ladies.
:cheer: Awwww, yea!!!!! I am really happy for you! Hopefully I will be feeling just like you in a few more weeks! :dothug:

It's back!
It's crazy to think that not a single player was loaned out during the first part of the season, as that may be a record for Fulham.
Anyway, Eddie Johnson re-joins the loaner ranks for the third time in his illustrious 3 year stint with the club. Also joining is youngin' Keanu Marsh-Brown.
Eddie Johnson started and played 90 minutes in Preston North End's 4-0 loss to Bristol City on Saturday. He had 4 shots, none on goal.
Keanu Marsh-Brown started and played 62 minutes in MK Dons' 2-2 tie at Sheffield Wednesday.

In the world of networking events, I've found there are more people socializing than doing real business. At least that's been the case in my limited experience. There's usually plenty of drinks, lots of small talk, and boxes of business cards exchanged, but when it's all said and done, there are very few sales.
Of course some people know what they're doing and they make the most of every event. In this article, I'll reveal some of the key differences, and how they relate to improving your website performance.
Your Website Is a 24/7 Networking Event
For many of your prospects, your website is the first interaction with your business. Think of it like shaking hands with a prospective customer at a networking event.
What's the first question that needs to be answered? It's usually, "What do you do?" In other words, what products or services do you offer? Believe it or not, it's sometimes hard to answer that question on the homepage of a website. In networking, this is often referred to as your elevator pitch. It's a succinct, compelling description of your business.
Take a look at your homepage. Do you have a crystal clear elevator pitch? Are you introducing your business with the same enthusiasm you would use in-person at a networking event? Or, according to your website copy and design, are you "just another attorney" or "just another appliance repairman"?
In other words, your website needs to make a great first impression with every prospect that visits your site. If it doesn't, then you'll be quickly forgotten just like all those boring conversations at networking events. :)
Sales Are Rare At the Actual Event
This shouldn't come as a big surprise, but real business is not likely to be conducted at networking events. The event is usually the introduction that leads to the follow-up sale. That's the mindset you need going into a networking event, and then you absolutely must follow through by calling and emailing the qualified leads/partners you meet. That's the key difference between selling and socializing.
The same is true with your website. Websites that fail to collect contact information and follow up are not doing their job selling. They're just socializing with prospects.
When you go to our homepage, www.mainstreetroi.com, then you'll see we offer a free report, The Internet Marketing Survival Guide. We offer that report to collect contact information from prospective clients. It's like asking for a business card. Then once we have a "business card," we use email marketing to follow up "after the event" to close the sale.
See how that works?
It's not enough to just have a free report on your website. That's like collecting a bunch of business cards and never following up. Clearly, that's not going to generate any sales. You absolutely must follow up!

"As I grow older and older, And totter toward the tomb, I find that I care less and less, Who goes to bed with whom."
"Why is it that, as we grow older, we are so reluctant to change? It is not so much that new ideas are painful, for they are not. It is that old ideas are seldom entirely false, but have truth, great truth in them. The justification for conservatism is the desire to preserve the truths and standards of the past; its dangers, of which we are seldom aware, is that in preserving those values, we may miss the infinitely greater riches that lie in the future."

Idyllwild Nature Center to Host Fundraiser Tea for Lemon Lily Festival
While at the Nature Center, visitors can find out more about the many educational programs that the center offers, buy educational and fun merchandise that all relates to the wildlife and flora and fauna in the San Jacinto Mountains. One such program that is supported by the Nature Center and the FRIENDS of the San Jacinto Mountains is the annual Lemon Lily Festival which was created in 2010 to help with restoring the Lemon Lily population to its once-abundant status. Shelley Kibbey, chair of the Lemon Lily Committee explained, "The Lemon Lily (Lilium parryi) once covered the hillsides and creeks surrounding Idyllwild, and due to over-harvesting, the population has dwindled sharply. Our goal is to help reestablish and restore the Lemon Lily population to the local habitat."
The Festival, which takes place this coming July 12 & 13 will offer visitors the opportunity to Adopt-A-Lemon Lily, see juvenile Lemon Lilies grow in the nursery, and participate in the many activities offered at the Nature Center and around downtown Idyllwild. Kibbey continued, "We'll have a Pioneer Town complete with pony rides, a blacksmith, arts and crafts, Bluegrass music, educational hikes and talks, and local vendors. There will be something for everyone and most activities are free." The cost to enter the Nature Center is $3 for adults, $2 for kids, and $1 for dogs, which must be leashed at all times.
The Tea will be held at 2 p.m. on Saturday, April 5 and Sunday, April 6th at the Idyllwild Nature Center, 54000 County Park Rd, Idyllwild, CA 92549. Tickets are $15 per person. To make a reservation, or a donation, call the Nature Center at 951-659-3850. For more information about the Festival, visit the website at www.lemonlilyfestival.com. The Idyllwild Lemon Lily Festival is a 501(c) (3) non-profit organization.

It may seem odd to to some, but I am SO excited that we're going to have a powder room in our new/old house {why do I keep calling it that praytell? You can catch up here}. Powder rooms are the ultimate excuse to go outside the box with your decor. Virtually anything goes. Crazy wallpaper, unlikely paint colors, dramatic lighting – they are a little jewel box of design.
I love the idea of hanging a mishmash of art and frames in our powder room. You're in such a small space that they'll truly take center stage. And you can constantly play with your selection, adding subtracting, rearranging to your heart's content. It's also perfect for the commitment-phobe. If wallpaper isn't your thing this is a fabulous solution.
What do you think? Are you into this pint-sized art gallery idea?

Our good friend, Deb, found these toy soldiers in her yard. It was a rather painful time for her. A large sequoia tree had to be removed. This wasn't an easy task for her, but after a long battle, the tree was removed, the fence torn down and the ground ripped to shreds.
Among the mess she found her son's toy soldiers long abandoned in the dirt.
With flashlight and camera, we decided to pose these soldiers throughout her garden and take pictures of them. It was a blast.
"When the LORD restored the fortunes of Zion, we were like those who dream. Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with shouts of joy; then they said among the nations, 'The LORD has done great things for them.'" Psalm 126:1-2 English Standard Version
The Lord has done great things for us. The Lord has done great things for you. As God's redeemed children we are set free to laugh and enjoy the life we have in him.
I hope you find your "toy soldiers" in the mud today and have some fun.

Ocean Red Tides Portend Ecosystem Collapse
One with a bit of ecological intuition can see signs of global ecosystem collapse all around. The red tides hitting North Eastern United States are the direct result of poor land and ocean management for centuries, which exacerbate normal ocean cycles. The region's clams are the canaries in the coal mine. Oceans are in poor shape – particulary coastal zones – as they have been treated as waste dumps and a resource to be mined indiscrimately. The critical zone where land meets sea has been devasted just about everywhere. What happens when ocean dead zones encompass the globe?
Red tide puts strain on Northeast
New England is facing its largest red tide in decades. The naturally occurring algae, called Alexandrium, contaminates clams, oysters, and other mollusks that filter seawater for nutrients and can cause illness in humans who consume the shellfish.

Dog killed by beaver trap set in a Sandy park
AlanSutton Salt Lake City, UTDec. 16, 2012 11:05 p.m.
Clearly, the city shouldn't pass the blame to the trapper. Both the city and the trapper knew better. It's a park. People and their dogs and their children go to parks. An incident like this is plainly foreseeable. Every reasonable person should expect a city that places deadly traps near a park to place warning signs near the traps.
My2Cents Taylorsville, UTDec. 16, 2012 3:50 a.m.
Aren't dogs in the parks and trails supposed to be on a lease by law so they don't attack each other or other pedestrians? Maybe they should have posted a sign for wild beavers in the area then close the parks until further notice.
The dog owner was also in the wrong, and why is the state interfering with wildlife in the park? And why is there a park in wildlife habitat? Especially with wild dogs running loose? Maybe the dog went chasing a beaver when he tangled with this trap, of which no ones has mentioned what kind it is. I assume its not a spring loaded trap, they're illegal in urban areas and much of the wild.
Once again pet owners are claiming deniability or accountability for their dishonorable act putting animals at risk and calling them a pet. Should we also call children pets? We think less of people than we do of irrelevant animals. Wild life, beavers, and parks are for people to see and enjoy, not pets or other exotic predatory animals or feral dogs and cats running loose. When you see something wild, its like a time capsule of history.
4601 Salt Lake City, UTDec. 15, 2012 10:46 a.m.
A sign? Most dogs can't read. Why was the dog not on a leash?

Trump May Not Accept Election Results, 'Going to See How Things Play Out'
Donald Trump won't commit to accepting the election results until he sees "how things play out."
The Republican presidential nominee called in to "America's Election HQ" today and said that he's concerned about a "rigged" and "broken" system.
"We're going to see how things play out today," Trump told Martha MacCallum. "Hopefully they'll play out well and hopefully we won't have to worry about it, meaning hopefully we'll win."
He said he wants to watch today and tonight and make sure that everything is "honest" in the voting process.

*UPDATE Employee: Response by Express Flooring
I had made my original appointment for 8/22/07, a Wednesday for a consult and a representative of Express Home Services to visit. The company never sent a representative nor did they call to cancel.
I called them and scheduled another appointment for a weekend. A salesman, Joe OConnor, came to my home and showed me flooring. He stayed at my home for 2 hours and 30 minutes measuring, re-measuring, and changing up flooring choices as he told me each one I had picked wouldnt work. I went from a (personal request) $2,000.00 ceiling limit on my order to being authorized for a $5,500.00 credit limit with your company.
Without much delay, my order then hopped to $5,436.00. When presented the contract for my signature, I asked Joe if I could think about this before I sign. He stated I could cancel the contract if I decided I didnt want the order.
The installation was to be for the following Saturday. I called on the Friday before and the installation department could not find my order. They didnt have it scheduled. I had my condo completely in disarray in readiness for my flooring. I now had great doubts about Express Home Services. I canceled the order the Sunday after they missed their installation date with me.
The cancelation was denoted on my account as later calls to service operators confirmed. I received a bill from GE Money for the $5,436.00 in October.
I called the Express Home Services immediately and again, operators, (Mat, Sydney, and Mary) on different occasions confirmed my order was canceled and the Operations Manager would call me back as soon as he returned from Colorado.
I called the GE Money Company and they told me to handle this account through Express Home Services. I then had the operators at Express Home Services get in touch with Henry Jaffe, the Operations Manager while he was in Colorado.
After several phone conversations between Mr. Jaffey and myself during the last week of October he made it very clear he wasnt going to honor my request.
He is to date refusing to call GE Money and have my account canceled. He is also telling me he and his company (of which he has also stated he is the CEO with no one above him) will only refund 75% of the $5,436.00. The balance he has stated can be used for product from Express Home Services. I took another appointment under duress to look at their flooring. I became ill and canceled the appointment.
After talking to an attorney and a paralegal, they have told me Express Home Services hasnt any right to my monies given I have not received a product and canceled my order within 24 hours of their missed installation date. Their legal counsel will lead me to the Attorney General of Arizona if Express Home Services and GE Money do not cancel this order and return my account to a zero balance.
My request is this: I want my account credited the complete $5,436.00 immediately.

Thanks for the heads-up Sara. My husband and I were going to purchase a $10k floor, but after reading how Express Home Services (Henry) defended his company, I think that in itself is unprofessional. I mean, to argue with a customer, very poor quality of service. We will be taking our business somewhere else.

Express flooring is the worst
AUTHOR: Suzi - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Saturday, July 11, 2009POSTED: Saturday, July 11, 2009
If they are such a great company why do their own employees turn on them?
I complained about their shoddy workmanship and extremely poor product. They sent the same installers out to check out my complaint. These installers told me the company would not give me any type of refund or replacement and told me to call them directly to do the job at a fraction of the cost Express charged me and with a high quality product.
I called Express and asked for a floor replacement, refund, even a 50% refund and I was told no, no, and no. Guess who I called.

Do not trust Express Home Services

Nov 11th arrived but our carpeting did not, and my husband and myself were very displeased about that. My husband expressed a desire to cancel the sale at that time but the EHS rep who spoke with us assured us that he understood perfectly, but he promised they could have our carpet in and installed by Friday Nov 14th, or "Sat Nov 15th" at the latest. So we relented and agreed to wait until Sat Nov 15th at the latest. Otherwise my husband said he would just as soon cancel.
Note-- no mention was made to us that EHS would seek to change us a "25% restocking fee" if we cancelled.
Sat Nov 15th arrived and again- no carpet! Allegedly the carpet had been received from the manufacturer but it was damaged upon arrival.
We were very displeased by this time and in order to keep our business the person we spoke with from EHS offered to come back to the house Monday to see if we could pick a different carpet from one they already had in stock instead of the one we agreed to purchase. We tentatively agreed to that, but after talking together throughout that evening and into the next morning my husband & I both felt so uneasy with the lack of reliability of this company by this point that we decided we would prefer to cancel the deal & start from scratch after the holidays were over.
Accordingly we called the company the very next morning with the intent to cancel but were met by a wall of resistance to us cancelling including the threat of being charged a 25% "restocking fee" for carpet that a) hadn't been cut, b) hadn't been delivered, and c) wasn't even on order at the time according to the status.
I had to speak with Eric in customer service, then another call with Terrance, our "project manager", who then had my salesman call me, and then to one Rick Duran who represented himself as the "National Sales Manager" for EHS.
At each level we were threatened with being charged over $500 if we cancelled the deal - even though we have received no product, none should be on order at the time of the phone conversations, and none had been "cut" therefore EHS had suffered no loss.
Rick Duran then promised that he would be able to have our carpet installed "no later than Dec 5th" and he would send me an e-mail guaranteeing that as well as an ungraded 8# padding at no added cost and would guarantee that if the carpet was not installed by Dec 5th we could cancel and they would NOT charge us any "restocking fee" at all. He promised he would have this e-mailed to me by Monday, Nov 17th.
Here it is Tues Nov 18th and no e-mail to that effect still. I have called Rick Duran's number and left a message. No return call still. Now I've called and left a messge for Brandon, one of the partners in the LLC that owns this company to have him call me.
Frankly, it would be better for us all if they simply allowed me to cancel this contract without asking for a "restocking fee' because otherwise I am going to consult an attorney to see if I can cancel it without being charged-- or if they do charge us will air this entire matter publicly in court -- or if I end up being forced to take carpet from them despite the fact that I don't want to deal with them then I will be their worst nightmare-- looking for any fault in product quality, installation, and God help them if they so much as mar a piece of my furniture even a little .....
Just save yourself problems & avoid this company.

This is the most ridiculous, irrational, inaccurate, and unfounded statement that we have ever been exposed to in our 35 years of floor covering history. Express Home Services is a reputable and professional company with thousands and thousands of happy customers. In actuality, we are probably the fastest growing floor covering company in the entire state of Arizona (We must be doing something right). Quite obviously we must be giving all of our customers' great values, quality installations, and five star service. Our company policy is to take care of all legitimate complaints. However, it is foolish for even us to believe that you can satisfy every customer all the time. Thus, sometimes we are exposed to customers that are emphatically wrong, unreasonable, absurd, and exaggerate the facts. This is certainly the case regarding the individual, only known as KWC that wrote the preceding complaint. Unbelievably, this customer cancelled more than three weeks after her contract was signed (and the order was already filled), yet she still expected Express Home Services to refund all of her money, even though we suffered great losses by processing her special order. Any reasonable person would have to agree that this type of thinking is unethically ludicrous. The financial losses that our company suffered from trying to satisfy HER very specific requests, far exceeded the 25% liquidated damages fee that were rightfully withheld and she subsequently used as a store credit.
We are in the business of processing floor covering orders to meet and exceed our customers' specific requests. To validate that any customer wants an exact style, color, and quantity of a particular product, Express Home Services has all customers sign a contract to make sure that BOTH company and consumer are in agreement. Within this contract is a clause that clearly states that if a customer cancels beyond a three day time period(ample time to review if you made the right decision), Express may recover 25% to offset the expenses incurred by the customer not going forward with the installation. This is a standard nationwide policy that is utilized by all floor covering companies. KWC grossly exceeded her allotted 3 business days for cancellation, thus forfeiting the opportunity to receive a full refund of all monies. For this reason, we regretfully were forced to try and recover a small portion of the money we lost. It is not only reasonable, but lawful to hold the consumer responsible for the contract they signed.
As it pertains to this individual situation, we did not keep any of the customer's money, but rather offered her store credit. She gladly accepted and had us install the flooring in her home. After the installation was complete, KWC signed a work order stating she was 100% SATISFIED! These actions alone are proof that Express Home Services did not keep any of the customer's money, although legally entitled too. In addition, it is noteworthy to mention that GE Credit (General Electric Financing), one of the world's largest and most professional financial institutions, agreed that we were entitled to 25% after KWC petitioned for a 100% refund and abolishment of the credit line she opened to purchase the original flooring. I am sure everyone can appreciate and understand that companies need to hold a customer accountable, and it isn't unreasonable to ask them to live up to the terms of the contract they signed for their custom order goods.
In conclusion, Express Flooring strives hard to meet every customer's expectation. This is where our LIFETIME INSTALLATION WARRANTY was created. We are the only floor covering company that offers a lifetime installation warranty: and that is the true barometer of how to measure the quality of a good company from a bad one, in how long they are willing to stand behind their work. Express Home Services stands behind its' work for life.

Dr Roger Bullock
Kingshill Research Centre
4 in 10 diagnosed
2009 Big launch
Slow start
2011: 4 in 10 diagnosed
Primary care needs education
Services need more investment
Need more public education
Spend lots on TV advertising
Actually a lot has happened, this is just a poor performance indicator
What is dementia?
What is Alzheimer's disease?
Is this normal ageing?
Have we got the right strategy?
Is 4 out of 10 actually quite good?
Senility – lost in the ageing process
Dementia – through the biomedical looking glass, where the person becomes invisible
Personhood – where brain meets body
Disability – empowering to ask for same as the able bodied
Citizenship – having an equal position in society
Incurable brain disease
Decline and dependency
Loss of person
Aggression and difficult behaviour
Plaques and tangles
Burden on healthcare
The cholinergic hypothesis
Visual hallucinations and acetylcholine
Increased tangles in the frontal lobe and psychosis – but no dopamine loss
Not much other physical evidence for "BPSD"
The amyloid hypothesis
Research for a cure, particularly AD
Exaggeration of benefits of any treatments
Over complication of diagnostic tests
Health payers created new rules for this particular long term condition
NICE perpetuated them (and research perpetuates NICE)
Primary care think it is all very difficult
A concept of brain failure…
Childhood and adolescent development
Cardiovascular protection
Weight advice
Diabetes control
Holistic care
Management of morbidity of ageing
Managing dementia – with or without the label
Illiteracy and poor diet
Smoking, drugs and alcohol
Lack of exercise
Supplements (e.g. folic acid)
Wait for the event
Dominated by "diagnosis" and care programmes – seen as needed
Concentrate on difficulties
Offer crisis response
Monitor decline
Support the carers in many ways, but not always the individuals – reassurringly expensive
Promote dependence, not recovery
95% of referrals are AD – memory clinics are self selecting
Most AD patients and families know
Other diagnoses are not always complex
Could this be delivered in the current primary care context? Is it already?
Latin for "loss of mind"
Definition driven by memory
Actually is a clinical stage, where a functional end point is reached
Has multiple causes
Functional decline relates more to executive disorders
Cannot be reversible – cognitive impairment can
The individual counts
They need comfort, attachment, inclusion, identity and occupation – 'wellbeing'
Helpful and holistic
Improved the care context
Positioned an individual within society
It continues to be passive and unidirectional – putting a person in the position of dependence on others
Tends to promote the status quo rather than growth
Has reached an impasse….
Can collude with the biomedical model. Status is still conferred by other as we still are not clear what people with dementia want. It is person centred, not person directed
Individual focus does not always have cultural relevance and talks of "the dementia experience" – assuming a homogeneity that does not exist
It uses apolitical language which is intuitively appealing
Has not impacted society's image of frail, cognitively impaired and dependent people who get nasty and cost money
So needs to move towards making people with dementia active and vocal members of society
The relationship people have with the state
Based on power, personhood is not
Has exclusionary tendencies and assumes cognisance and ability to work/contribute (Lister 2003)
Denies difference (Higgs 1997)
The relationship people have with the state
Based on power, personhood is not
Has exclusionary tendencies and assumes cognisance and ability to work/contribute (Lister 2003)
Denies difference (Higgs 1997)
Achieved in individuals through the power dynamics of everyday talk and action (Barnes 2004)
Expression of human agency (Lister 2003)
Fundamental to the way of being with others (Isin 2007)
Creates norms, values and practices to solve problems for the individual and others
Intervention by the state
Promotes better public knowledge (citizenship)
Hinges around early diagnosis (biomedical) and the need for a label
Intends to enable "Living well with dementia" (personhood)
Needs to aim to promote dementia in society, not improved care for people with dementia
Agree what early diagnosis means and what it triggers. People with dementia then require a move from:
Encourage people with dementia to speak out in a positive way
Enable people with dementia to act in public positions
Look at research on what people want, not just focus on cures
Commission services that promote citizenship
Challenge some aspects of the law e.g. HRA
A species activity that includes everything we do to maintain, continue and repair our world so that we can live in it as well as possible
It includes our bodies, our selves and our environment, all of which we seek to interweave in a complex life-sustaining web
Citizenship depends on care
Facilitation of care promotes citizenship, so not only people with dementia and their carers need a voice, professionals do too
Dementia strategy arose because people with dementia felt services were not working - a mismatch of high expectation that something should be done and a low expectation anything will be
Attentiveness (interdependence means others matter, more so the vulnerable)
Responsibility (all contexts are recognised)
Competence (services are delivered)
Responsiveness (alert to balance shifts)
Education about the brain from an early age
Understanding that life choices contribute to future brain failure – as with other organs
Including preservation of cognition in the well being strategies
Creating dementia friendly environments, including employment opportunities
Looking at societal solutions e.g. intergenerational schools
Consider dementia as a long term condition
Challenge the expectations, including legal and societal to build a citizenship model
Plan to make a long term difference
Abilities (reverse of difficulties)
Intrapersonal understanding
History of the person (Life story)
Interpersonal relationships
Societal responses
Need a partnership of people with complimentary skills who have the time to gain full contextual understanding
Have to understand the full physical, social and psychological aspects of an individual pertaining to their place in society
If aiming at early detection, must use their findings to promote the person within society
Individual levels
Better commissioning expectations
Societal acceptance
Moral philosophers employed in the NHS?
Ultimately we need increase in autonomy, based on a personal, family and societal reaction augmented by benefit from any potential future drug intervention
Senility – lost in the ageing process
Dementia – through the biomedical looking glass, where the person becomes invisible
Personhood – where brain meets body
Disability – empowering to ask for same as the able bodied
Citizenship – having an equal position in society
