In the wake of the terror attacks in Paris, France terror raids were carried out in Belgium and Greece to identify, locate and hunt down so-called "sleepers cells." Journalists and politicians have finally raised the issue of the threats potentially posed by sleeper agents in the United States, going back to the future — the same concerns about sleeper cells in the United States were voiced in the wake of the terror attacks of September 11, 2001 including by the then-director of the FBI, Robert Mueller.
Of course any discussion about sleeper agents gaining entry into the United States would logically call into question the multiple and massive failures of the immigration system. Today politicians from both sides of the political aisle are hell-bent on making certain that the flood of foreign workers, foreign tourists and foreign students continue without impediment. Consequently admitting that immigration is a vital component of national security and must be treated as such would run contrary to the goals of advocates for Comprehensive Immigration Reform.
The "solution" politicians and journalists who oppose effective immigration law enforcement have devised to resolve the quandary that this creates is to describe sleeper agents as being "homegrown," hoping that Americans will ignore the obvious: That foreign nationals are seeking to enter the United States to launch terror attacks.
Incredibly, even such foreign national terrorists have come to be referred to as being "homegrown" by journalists, politicians and high-ranking members of the law enforcement community who should know better. This is nothing short of Orwellian propaganda.
Former NYPD Police Commissioner Ray Kelly apparently fell victim to this mis-identification of foreign terrorists when he described Faisal Shahzad, the so-called "Times Square Bomber" as being "homegrown." The title of a New York Post article, published on May 11, 2010, quoted Commissioner Kelly, "Kelly: NYC bomb suspect 'homegrown,'" and contained the following statement:
The Times Square threat was "a classic case of homegrown terrorism," Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said at a briefing for private security executives.
Shahzad had legally immigrated to the United States when he was roughly 20 years old. How on earth is he "homegrown"? He may not have come to the United States with the intentions of ultimately carrying out a terrorist attack, however it is impossible to know when he made that decision. What is clear is that he is absolutely not "homegrown."
In fact, in that article, Kelly was also quoted as referring to Najibullah Zazi, the leader of a group that planned a suicide bombing of the New York City subway system, as also being "homegrown," blatantly ignoring the fact that Zazi had immigrated to the United States from his native Pakistan when he was a teenager
Does this mean that native-born Americans are not being recruited by ISIS or al-Qaeda? Of course they are, but it is lunacy to ignore the failures of the vetting process by which we admit immigrants and grant them visas and provide them with immigration benefits including political asylum, lawful immigrant status and even United States citizenship through the naturalization process.
While some native-born American citizens, who for a variety of reasons may have decided to heed the call of terror organizations to take up arms against America and Americans, to date, most of the terrorists who have carried out terror attacks inside the United States were foreign nationals who, in one way or another, often through the legal entry system, managed to enter the United States, bide their time, hiding in plain sight or, in the parlance of the 9/11 Commission, embedded themselves in communities around the United States as they went about their deadly preparations.
The terror attacks carried out at the CIA Headquarters and at the World Trade Center in 1993, the terror attacks of September 11, 2001 and most recent, the attack on April 15, 2013 at the Boston Marathon were all carried out by foreign nationals – not "homegrown" terrorists.
I have raised the issue of "sleeper agents" at congressional hearings year ago. What I had to say is a part of the congressional record — a record I suspect many of today's politicians would rather not want Americans to even know exists.
In fact, to cite one such hearing, roughly ten years ago, on March 10, 2005, I testified before the House Subcommittee on Immigration, Border Security and Claims on the topic, "Interior Immigration Enforcement Resources."

I'll never have any others

Always soooo comfortable
Thorlo PLEASE bring back the WLTH Light Hiking Socks in Color: Charcoal!
02/05/15 | By Casey G.
*Sock Size UPDATE: My feet are a U.S. Men's Size: 10, medium to narrow with and I need good arch support and cushioning for comfort and to take up some volume for a good snug proper fit, I am an ex-Soccer player so I love a glove like fit regarding my footwear. I where Nikes sneakers, Asolo Hiking Boots, SIDI Cycling Shoes & Motorcycle Boots, and Atomic Ski Boots. I LOVE the WLTH-13-785 Light Hiking, Color: Charcoal! The Charcoal color has been discontinued :( why? These are not light weight, they take up volume in my Asolo Hiking Boots and are great for the Fall and Winter seasons while wearing hiking boots, I do wish they were 1.5" taller because they shrink in height a bit, and then I find myself wearing my ski socks because they are taller, the WLTH Light Hiking Socks are mid-calf in length. I where these socks in Men's Thorlos Sock Size: 13 = USA Shoe Size: 9 to 12.5 and they fit perfect. I have owned and worn Thorlo's SLW Ski Wool/Silk Socks for years they last and last. I also sold tons of them when I worked at a Ski, Snowboard & Boat Shop, that is the most important piece of gear when going skiing - a great pair of Thorlo's, again another one of my classic favorites the SLW Ski Wool/Silk Socks have been discontinued :( I am so bummed out that Thorlo just discontinued my other favorite adventure socks :( listed below. Thorlo PLEASE bring them back!!! XSKI Extreme Ski, Color: Charcoal/Black = Skiing, Shoveling Snow & Winter Motorcycling Awesomeness! Discontinued :( XWXU Experia Wool Silk Crew, Color: Charcoal = Hiking, Fall/Winter Trail Running and Casual Awesomeness! Discontinued :( XCXU-12-073 - Experia Crew, Color: Black/White = Spring/Fall Hiking, Spring/Fall/Winter Trail Running and Casual Awesomeness! Discontinued :( MADE In USA make me happy :) but Thorlo you guys keep discontinuing every sock I love, what am I going to wear on my feet???

Best socks for cold weather
12/19/14 | By Anonymous
These are great socks, especially for cold weather. They are a little more expensive than some other Thorlo socks, but are well worth it. Will be getting more!
It's all I wear
11/29/14 | By Philip K.
Now my wife wears them too.
On concrete all day.
10/17/14 | By Art G.
Fri 17 Oct, I find these socks to be a good thickness for my work boots and my casual foot wear. I am on concrete all day and a fresh pair of socks is a soft and comfortable ride all day. Regards, Art
Great socks for walking/exercising and just great casual wear
10/02/14 | By Nancy B.
These are great socks for walking/exercising and just great feeling socks for just casual wear.
08/12/14 | By Cindy B.
The wool content in these socks helps to control my "stinky feet" problem. I do not find them to be too warm in the summer. They are a medium weight and have good cushioning yet are not so thick that they confine my feet/toes when worn with a sneaker. I need a dark colored sock for work. The navy blue works but I wish they would bring back the black in this style.
Best hiking socks for "real" hiking, and for city hiking as well!
07/02/14 | By Marsha M.
My husband and I day-hike 4-6 miles in the Olympic Mountains, with major elevation change on rocky trails, and these socks rock! For many years both of us have suffered from blisters on long hikes, which diminishes the pleasure in the activity. The amazing padding these socks have in just the right spots, as well as the excellent way these socks maintain dry feet despite hours in the boots . . . really a miracle. We tried the lighter version and found it didn't perform like the LTH does for this vigorous activity, although it was nice around town, but these are good for city hiking as well. Thank you Thorlos, for extending our delight in our hiking adventures for many years to come.

We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
Whether it is a sucess depends on what you consider it's purpose to have been. In so far it has a purpose it is to exist and be manned, nothing more, and at that it has suceeded. The problems, beyond the expeted small technical ones, have all been due to America not having a worthwhile launch system to do their end of the job.
All of the other supposed purposes which it has not suceeded against were bogus anyway. No one had a real scientific mission for it for instance. These purposes were just made up to get the budget past politicians who had no interest in space projets per-se. So, except for the politics, there is no reason to worry that it hasn't achieved them.
Like regular shuttle flights...
It's hard enough getting cats into a pen, it's that much harder to get countries known for 'cutting corners' (like Russia) to do their job correctly.
The astronauts are being asked to cut back 10% from their 3000 Calorie / day food intake. Now, remember, these people are weightless, so they are burning *less* Calories than they would on earth. So I wouldn't say they are in danger of starving or anything....
If anything, they are in danger of becoming lard-asses.
Oh my god! Space exploration is doomed!
Computers can figure out all kinds of problems, except the things in the world that just don't add up.

The Fleming Road side of the stadium will be open for this Friday's game with Glynn Academy as well as the other four home games this season. There will be no entry from Lester Road, either vehicular or pedestrian, due to construction. There are approximately 400 parking spaces on the Fleming Drive side of the stadium. These will be available on a first come first serve basis.
SYLVANIA - Michael Johnson didn't think he'd ever really get to be a starting quarterback.
The Statesboro softball team (1-2, 3-10) suffered its worst loss of the 2007 season Tuesday, falling 21-0 to Evans at Mill Creek.
NEW YORK - Mark Teixeira hit a three-run homer and the Atlanta Braves roughed up a rusty Orlando Hernandez in a 13-5 victory over the New York Mets on Tuesday night.
ATLANTA - A loss to Washington left the Braves talking about the need to sweep the New York Mets in a series beginning Monday. But even that might not be enough to revive Atlanta's playoff hopes.
MINNEAPOLIS - Somewhere, Michael Vick must have been shaking his head.
CLAXTON - The Claxton Tigers began their first home game of the 2007 season with a bang. However, the Tigers could not maintain momentum throughout the night, falling to the Trojans of Johnson County by a 12-0 margin.
Pinewood senior Lane Miller galloped for two late fourth-quarter touchdowns to help the Patriots put away a determined Bulloch Academy squad 19-0 at Gator Alley Friday night.
PORTAL - Coach John Kenny got his first win at Southeast Bulloch as the Jackets (1-1) visited Portal (0-2) and topped the Panthers 34-7 Friday night at Panther Field.
Jenkins County has been in this position before.
Bulloch Academy head coach Clint Morgan has been looking to Boone, N. C. for inspiration as his Gators prepare to take on powerful Class AAA rival Pinewood Christian Academy.
In one of the most anticipated games of the Bulloch County prep football season, Southeast Bulloch (0-1) will hit Highway 80 and head just a few miles west to take on cross-county rival Portal (0-1) in the newly-renovated Panther Stadium tonight at 7:30 p.m.
ATLANTA - The Braves will have a hard time making the playoffs, despite their most remarkable comeback of the season. So they went ahead and celebrated as though this one was for a championship.
PORTAL - When the Portal Panthers decided to commit to running the triple-option offense after the 2006 season, they needed a quarterback to run it. All eyes on the PHS coaching staff immediately turned to junior DB/RB Steven Cox.
BROOKLET - You won't find the stat on an official stat sheet, no Southeast Bulloch Yellow Jacket will boast about how many they have and the SEB coaches aren't exactly thrilled to mark one down during review of last week's game film.
Grab a cup of coffee and spend some time re-living the Georgia Southern Eagles sweeping the Sun Belt Conference through the eyes of Herald Staff Photographer Scott Bryant.

I think that the real issues with Swain stem from his awkward attack animation. Fix that by itself and swain would be much more enjoyable, and we wont have to take into attack the small delay before he actually attacks.

Darius nerf? Who saw that coming?
Desmond Law

Your logic in nerfing Urgot is rediculous. You can only get in 3 Q's for each E you can land. And Urgot needs that bonus MR and armor when he throws his ass in the thick of the fight.
Why is Swain's Ultimate called, "Touched Bolt Augmenter" at 2"50?
Morons, you suck, who ever is picking whats getting "balanced" is smoking too much of that green "feel good" plant. You are nerfing everything and buffing a champion who already has a Powerful Uliti. Get your buts in gear and stop nerfing champions who don't need it because people are too good with a champion or other people are just bad against them. This is pathetic.
WHY did you buff swain?!
darius is a monster!!!!

Iterative Combinatorial Basis Spectra in Wavetable Matching
Previous work on matching musical instrument tones in wavetable synthesis used combinatorial selection to pick the basis spectra that best match target spectra from the original tone. An iterative method is proposed that divides the selection process over several levels. The results show that the iterative method is about as effective as the original method (within 3.5%) and more efficient.

Four of the top 10 companies in the $11.4 million business last year of providing power scooters, wheelchairs, prosthetic limbs and other medical equipment to D.C. Medicaid recipients have come under investigation.
At least six other "durable medical equipment," or DME, dealers also are being investigated, including one suspected of selling a recipient a walker, then billing the government for a $13,500 deluxe power scooter.
The D.C. Department of Health confirmed the investigations in response to a Freedom of Information Act request by The Washington Times.
Agency attorneys withheld several records, saying the documents are "investigatory records compiled for law enforcement," therefore exempt from public disclosure. Officials also would not release the names of the companies under investigation.
The situation raises questions about whether fraud and mismanagement, which have plagued the District's Medicaid transportation program in recent years, also have surfaced in the DME program.
The Medical Assistance Administration (MAA), an arm of the health department, oversees the city's more than $1 billion in Medicaid spending, which is funded by federal and local governments to provide health care for the poor.
Nearly 90 DME companies, mostly in the District and Maryland, received a combined $11.4 million in fiscal 2006 to supply the city's poor.
The figure is up from $10.1 million in 2005 and $9.8 million in 2004. And while officials say overall costs remain within budget, MAA spending could increase by 40 percent compared to 2004 figures. Already, MAA had paid out more than $12 million in fiscal 2007.
Records reviewed by The Times show DME companies alone accounted for nearly half all of the medical-equipment costs incurred by the city's Medicaid program in 2006.
Billing patterns vary widely. One company received $1.5 million after submitting 11,644 Medicaid claims while another received $1.5 million on only 426 claims.
A health department spokeswoman said MAA is "pro-active in reviewing and auditing DME claims."
"We cannot comment on particular efforts but can say that if we become aware of improper billing practices in a given area, we would devote appropriate effort to reviewing other providers from that area of concern," said spokeswoman Leila Abrar.
A recent internal MAA e-mail obtained by The Times shows that at one point, many Medicaid agreements between providers and the District were activated without a D.C. Medicaid official signing off on the documents.
In an internal memo, MAA's former acting manager, William Brown, stated in January that D.C. Medical officials had just recently learned that five years earlier a former program manager "did not sign several provider agreements."
As a result, the city's Medicaid contractor, Affiliated Computer Services, "activated hundreds (maybe thousands) of provider agreements ... that do not have a signature from an MAA official during the re-enrollment period in 2002," Mr. Brown wrote. He blamed former city Medicaid officials.
D.C. health officials declined to comment on the error other than to say they now follow the proper procedures.
"It is our policy to review and sign all provider applications before the provider is given a [Medicaid] number," Miss Abrar said. "This is currently being done."
But others call the lack of signatures a troubling signal.
"If you don't have a signature on the provider agreement then you don't have a contract," said one D.C. employee familiar with the situation, who spoke on the condition the source not be identified for fear of reprisal.
"MAA should have had the internal controls in place to have a person check these agreements," the source said. "It doesn't take a contractual expert to see if a page is signed."
Though officials have withheld the names of companies facing investigation, The Times has obtained a copy of a federal search warrant affidavit filed days before agents seized financial records from D.C.-based Doors of Hope Medical Supply in December.
The company received $550,000 from the city's Medicaid program from February 2003 to September 2005. More than half of the money went to pay for power scooters, records show.
Now investigators are looking into whether the company gave its patients cheaper medical equipment, then used their Medicaid numbers to bill the District for power scooters costing nearly $15,000.
On Dec. 14, the FBI seized D.C. government checks, tax returns, patient files and "presumptively forged invoices," according to records on file in federal court in the District.
Channing Phillips, a spokesman for the U.S. Attorney's Office in the District, said no charges have been filed in the Doors of Hope investigation but the matter is still pending.
D.C. Medicaid officials declined to comment on the probe. The company's offices in a medical building next to Greater Southeast Community Hospital have been shuttered, and phone messages were not returned last week.
Other DME companies also are hard to locate. Several of their phone numbers listed in the city's online Medicaid provider directory have been disconnected. Faith Hope Medical Supplies, for example, has no working number, and its address on Minnesota Avenue Northeast is now a beauty-supply shop.
Medicaid and Medicare fraud has been a recurring problem in the medical-equipment industry across the country, said Spencer Levine, former director of the Florida Medicaid Fraud Control Unit.
"All they need is access to recipient Medicaid numbers and a provider number," he said. "You can bill hundreds of thousands of dollars in weeks. It's literally a printing press."
One of the major ways to bilk the system is known as "upcoding," in which a provider gives a patient a cheaper piece of equipment, then bills Medicaid for a high-priced item, Mr. Levine said.
Earlier this month, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Michael O. Leavitt announced a two-year effort to root out fraud in companies providing power scooters, wheelchairs and other equipment to Medicare recipients.
Federal strike forces were deployed in South Florida and Southern California, and officials hope to expand the program nationwide.
Florida-based Lincare Inc., which received $68,985 from the District's Medicaid office last year, paid $12 million to the federal government last year to resolve an investigation into kickbacks to doctors.
The company admitted no wrongdoing, but federal authorities said their investigation showed Lincare gave doctors golf outings, fishing trips, meals and purported consulting deals for referrals.
Malcolm Sparrow, a professor at Harvard University and author of "License to Steal: How Fraud Bleeds America's Health Care System," said a major reason Medicaid fraud often goes undetected is because states are under pressure to administer and pay out claims quickly.
"The cheapest way to pay claims is not to question them," he said.
However, Miss Abrar said many investigations into fraud begin with internal reviews by the city's Medicaid office.
D.C. Council member David A. Catania, at large independent and chairman of the council's Committee on Health, said he was "very concerned" by the investigations.
"I'll be watching the investigations closely," he said. "If the government is being cheated, I want to know by whom and how much."

North York
History of Amesbury
Amesbury's first settler was John Denison, a United Empire Loyalist who purchased land here in 1804. The Denison family were influential members of the Toronto establishment. They were well regarded for their outstanding contribution to Toronto's early political and military affairs.
The Denison Family also owned large parcels of land in downtown Toronto, Richmond Hill, and along the Humber River south of Lawrence Avenue where Denison Avenue is situated today. Located at the end of Denison Road overlooking the Humber River Valley is St. John's Cemetery-on-the-Humber, which has been the private cemetery of the Denison Family since 1861.
Members of the Denison family continued to own property in Amesbury right up until the early 1930's. The present day Amesbury neighbourhood was subdivided for residential development in the 1940's.

Zach McAllister pitched four strong innings yesterday in the Cleveland Indians' 8-3 win over the Oakland Athletics.
McAllister, who is trying to grab the fifth and final spot in the Indians' starting rotation, gave up two hits and an unearned run. He walked two and struck out four.
Some have ticketed McAllister for a bullpen slot simply because he cannot be sent to the minors without being exposed to waivers, unlike Danny Salazar and Josh Tomlin.
However, if McAllister keeps pitching like this, he could make the rotation, with Tomlin in the bullpen and Salazar ticketed for Columbus.
T.J. House, whose effectiveness and lefty status has seemingly won him a rotation spot, will pitch tonight against the San Francisco Giants.Read more... Join the Conversation...

if you could let your garden go fallow for a year...
I'm pregnant with my first child, and I suspect I won't have a lot of garden time next summer. I live in zone 5 and my garden is about 20 x 15 feet. Can you suggest a cover crop that would last most of the summer, be good for the soil and keep the weeds from taking over?
Maybe I'll put a tomato plant in or some herbs -- something low-key -- but I'd hate to look out on my garden and see it turning into a mess of weeds. I figure I might as well do something good for the soil in the process. Any ideas?
Put down a thick layer of wood chips (hardwood, not pine bark) and let them decompose for a couple of years - when you're ready to garden again, the soil will have been fed by the decomposing chips and ready to grow whatever you want, and the weeds will have been kept to a minimum.
Don't be surprised if it's a little longer than a year until you are completely back into gardening - I think my girl was close to four before I did more than maintenance. Not because she was so much work to take care of, but she was so much fun to be with that weeding took last place. Enjoy your baby!
Crimson cover is an annual, but reseeds easily. Blue lupines are beautiful and add nitrogen to the soil too. Birdsfoot trefoil is a great choice. Comfrey doesn't add nitrogen, but it contributes other nutrients. I'd recommend a mix of plants instead of just one. Any plants you choose will probably need some weeding while they get established, but once they do, they will improve your soil, and look great doing it too.
I don't think I could let it go fallow! Maybe something that wouldn't reseed and be hard to eradicate in the future? I am thinking like cucumbers, watermelon (small variety), other melons, gourds. Any other sprawling, vining fruit or veg. Indeterminate tomatoes can be left to vine on the ground actually. Not squash, which in my experience gets pests. Stick a little bird bath in there or birdfeeder (only use sunflower seeds becoz they are easy to identify if you want to pull them out - the other birdseed mix will just get you more weeds). This will be enjoyable for your baby, even a few months old will enjoy the flowers, fruits, and birds!

I know it's early, but I actually think my LO does better when we try not to nap her. Napping has always been a struggle with her. Nighttime is a breeze and always has been. The last couple of months, she would scream and cry during nap time. We tried everything. . . laying with her, rocking, quiet time, CIO, nothing worked. The last 2 days, I said forget it, lets see how she is without trying to nap her. She was actually was much, much better in the afternoon! I just put her to bed earlier. She even slept a little later in the morning. Anyone else not napping your LO?

Posted 02/11/2013
I'm still trying every day, but mostly LO only falls asleep in the car. It's a huge ordeal to get him to nap, but I can tell he needs it at least a few times a week. He does okay for 4-5 days, but after that he starts to fall apart.
ODS went through a similar phase and then went back to napping, so I'm holding out hope.

Featuring tunes and an interview with adventurous producer Flako, plus LP of the week by Mocky. We zip around the world with Ola Szmidt, Neguedmundo, and Fadimoutou Wallet Inamoud. And we air new music from Herbert and Sufjan Stevens, psychedelic soul from the Monophonics, and a classic from ESG.
Enterprising U.K. jazz outfit Polar Bear debut their sixth album, Same As You, on Bandcamp. Something of a natural progression from their previous release, In Each and Every One (shortlisted for the 2014 Mercury Music Prize), it is also a distinctly more optimistic and uplifting offering. Dom Servini talks with drummer/bandleader Seb Rochford.
If the lead single is anything to go by this should be a heavyweight contender for rap album of the year.
30 recent tunes, from the Tru Thoughts crew (incl. Quantic, Alice, Seshen, etc) for less than the price of a bag of fish n'chips.
Danish duo craft epic electronic pop-noir and slowmo disco fatale. Highly RIYL Chromatics or Nite Jewel.

This album is fabulous: fantastic songwriting, soulful vocals, tasteful production. It feels both fresh and cozily familiar.
Honky-tonk angel Selena Rosanbalm (Rosie) and her band make music that's honest, funny, and occasionally biting. The Ramblers' full length debut Whatever You Need provides a template for building a bridge between a sound that is both traditional and contemporary. At once timely and timeless, these stories become our stories.
A folk-pop record that charts the rise and fall of relationships, complete with impassioned vocals and silvery harmonies.

In the past decade, China has emerged as a formidable economic force. As head of Goldman Sachs, Henry M. Paulson, Jr. played a pivotal role in opening China to private enterprise, and as Treasury Secretary he created the framework for economic dialogue between China and the United States. Drawing on his unprecedented access to modern China's political and business elite, Paulson explores the present and future of U.S. engagement—and competition—with the world's second-largest economic power.
Parenting in the Digital Age
As iPads begin to replace conversations at the dinner table, many families struggle to understand the digital revolution unfolding in their households. Renowned clinical psychologist Catherine Steiner-Adair explores how technology and media are putting children at risk, from infancy through young adulthood, and challenging what it means to be a family.
Parenting in the Digital Age
Why do some children thrive and others struggle? Noted child psychologist Tovah P. Klein suggests that the seeds for adult success are actually planted in the toddler years through qualities such as resilience, self-reliance, self-regulation, and empathy. In a proactive talk, Dr. Klein reveals how to help children grow into fulfilled, happy, and successful people amidst the countless distractions of the digital age.
Built beginning in 1858, Central Park gave all New Yorkers, whatever their class, their own "private country estate" where they could leave the city behind and commune with nature. Designed as a complete artifice—it is naturalistic, not natural—it turned the democratic ideal into a brilliant, three-dimensional concept of city planning as well as a transcendental vision that would civilize urban life.
At a time when Jews represented less than one-half of one percent of the American population, Abraham Lincoln became an advocate for Jewish equality and acceptance. Two celebrated historians reveal how Lincoln's remarkable relationship with American Jews impacted his presidency, his policy decisions, and, as a result, broadened America.
For nine decades, Al Hirschfeld immortalized celebrities and Broadway personalities with his iconic linear calligraphic portraits, establishing himself as one of the most important contemporary artists. Louise Kerz Hirschfeld, Robert Osborne, and Harold Prince explore the caricaturist's life and legacy through his art, career, and personal relations. This program is presented in conjunction with the New-York Historical exhibition The Hirschfeld Century: The Art of Al Hirschfeld.
As commander of Joint Special Operations Command from 2003 to 2008, General Stanley McChrystal recognized that to battle a decentralized enemy like Al Qaeda, the U.S. would need to discard a century of management wisdom and reinvent military strategies to become more organic and adaptive. Drawing on his experiences in the military, the private sector, and beyond, General McChrystal examines how teamwork, communication, and freedom for experimentation can transform organizations, from the world's largest military to the smallest institutions.
In the decades leading up to the Civil War, New Yorkers had plenty on their minds besides the issue of slavery. Industrialization had radically changed the city in the previous 20 years, immigrants needed for labor were bringing "foreign" cultures to American shores, the rising middle class was beginning to mimic European high society, and new technology was changing everyday life—for those who could afford it. Join us to look at a city whose own thorny problems made the "slavery question" seem a distant dilemma.
Less than three months after Japan bombed Pearl Harbor in 1941, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed an order which initiated thousands of Japanese Americans to be rounded up and imprisoned into internment camps for the remainder of the war. Drawing from survivor interviews, private letters and memoirs, and numerous archives, award-winning historian Richard Reeves provides compelling insight into this painful chapter in American history, during which more than 120,000 Japanese Americans and Japanese aliens were interned.

Karen Lynne - Will I Be Good Enough - Inspirational Videos
Embed bobmarshall 1034 views 2013-03-13T17:06:56 Karen Lynne (aka Karen Lynne Louis) is a bluegrass artist from Australia. She came to Nashville to record a gospel bluegrass album called "Shine Your Light". I don't believe it has been released yet, but she sent me a preview copy. This song really touched me, since as a father I have myself these questions many times. The song seems to have a motherly feel to it, but I think it also works from the perspective of a father. Anyway, it's a very touching and beautiful song. Oh, and when the album is released, check it out, it's one of those rare jewels where every track is a winner.

April is National Parkinson's Disease Awareness Month. All this month, we will feature a series of posts addressing Parkinson's disease symptoms, genetics, treatment options and more from NorthShore neurologists—Demetrius Maraganore, MD, Aikaterini Markopoulou,
MD, and Ashvini Premkumar, MD— to raise awareness about this common and often disabling neurological disorder.
Aikaterini Markopoulou, MD
What is DBS?
Deep brain stimulation is a type of surgical treatment for Parkinson's disease. It involves the insertion of electrodes into specific areas of the brain that control movement. The electrodes are connected to a battery that is placed under the skin in the upper
part of the chest. Electrical current that passes through the electrode stimulates these brain areas on one side of the brain. This stimulation results in improvement of tremor and slowness or stiffness on the other side of the body.
Who is a good candidate for DBS?
To be a candidate for DBS surgery a number of conditions have to be met:
Is DBS covered by Medicare?
Yes, DBS is covered by Medicare.
When a patient has bilateral DBS is it necessary to have two stimulators, or will one suffice?
In the majority of Parkinson's cases, symptoms affect both sides of the body; therefore, electrodes are inserted in both sides of the brain. In some cases where the symptoms affect mostly one side, the electrode can be inserted only in the opposite site of
the brain.
If you have DBS, how does it affect your ability to get through airport checks, metal detectors, etc.?
Each patient is provided with an identification card that includes information about the implanted stimulator. The TSA agent should offer a private screening or screening with a manual wand instead of the patient walking through a metal detector.
What percentage of DBS surgeries result in complications? What complications might a patient encounter?
The DBS surgery may result in complications both during the implantation and after surgery, which include bleeding at the electrode insertion site that can be fatal, hardware malfunctioning, and infection and symptom worsening. In a large multicenter clinical
trial, 7.5% of patients developed intracranial hemorrhage, 10.6% device-related infection and 8.1% one-sided weakness.
How long is DBS effective?
Studies that have followed patients for ten years have been published and the DBS remained effective throughout the ten-year interval.
Are there any long term risks associated with DBS?
DBS therapy remains a safe treatment option for Parkinson's patients for at least ten years.
In Parkinson's disease (PD) low levels of dopamine in the brain lead to the symptoms of tremor, slowness, stiffness and difficulty walking. There is an easy way to replace dopamine with Sinemet tablets. The levodopa in these tablets is converted to dopamine
in the brain and helps relieve the symptoms. Why then should we consider a surgical treatment for PD?
Over time, patients on PD show a fluctuating response to medications. A dose that would last four to six hours now lasts for two or three hours. In between doses, the symptoms return with a vengeance. In addition there may be involuntary movements called dyskinesias
or a severe tremor not controlled despite increasing doses of medications.
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery is a way out of this predicament. While not a cure, it can set the clock back on the severity of the disease. Some patients can reduce medication doses thereby reducing the side effects. Tremor, dyskinesias and muscle rigidity
are symptoms that improve the most. Patients show a longer duration of action of medications following surgery.
The surgery is a three-part process that involves placing an electrode in the brain connected to a pacemaker device placed under the skin in the chest. The first part maps the brain using MRI techniques. To further improve the accuracy of the electrode placement,
the NorthShore DBS team uses a sophisticated brain mapping technique called microelectrode recording. The third part involves placing the pacemaker and connecting it to the brain electrode. Patients typically return home in 2-3 days after surgery.
The NorthShore DBS team has over 15 years of experience with DBS surgery.
Dr. Dalvi has been involved with training neurologists nationally on managing the DBS pacemaker settings following surgery. When medications for PD fail it is time to consider DBS surgery.

By the time kids enter middle school, their march toward independence is well under way.
But let's face it – it can be a confusing time for parents.
When a child spreads his wings, it can feel like he's turning his back on you instead. But that's not really the case. Your middle schooler needs you as much as he always has.
In some ways, more.
He just needs you in a different way than he did in his formative years.

Charges dropped in Londonderry marijuana case
Wageling said in an eight-page decision that Londonderry police officers already determined that a woman who made a 911 call from the home was not in danger before they did a "protective sweep" of the home.
Police officers testified at a hearing in February that they went to the home in response to a 911 call made by Brandon Castiglione's girlfriend. She told police that her boyfriend had bitten her and made statements that he could harm himself.
Brandon Castiglione refused to give police permission to search the residence, saying he wasn't the homeowner.
Police decided to search the home anyway to make sure no one else was in need of assistance. Once inside, a police officer smelled marijuana and picked a lock to the door of a bedroom where the marijuana was found, according to court records.
The father and son were indicted in separate cases, but prosecutors agreed to have a single hearing to determine whether the search was legally permissible.
