Something I wrote up for another site which I thought some here might find useful and interesting. Pics are from my wifes phone which I am trying to learn how to use and are quite crappy.
There are so many ways one can be caught in the dark, blackout, power failure, car accident, and all have one thing in common, needless trouble. In this day and age I find there is less reason than ever for anyone to be in the dark in an emergency, or in a self-defense setting. Flashlight technology, and battery technology has come to the point that small easily carried personal use lights are available in all price ranges. This particular article is concerned specifically with AAA lights, my own particular favorite, but there are comparable sized AA and CR123 lithium lights in those respective sizes easily available also. There are also excellent rechargeable batteries for high use lights to keep battery prices down, and lithium AA and AAA batteries for lights, which sit for longer periods and for those lights, which can be expected to be used for long time periods at a time.
So lets get into the meat of the thing, there are generally two recognized type of lights general/emergency type lights, and defensive use lights. The largest difference in the two being the brightness of the light output, with a secondary recognized difference in the way the light is turned on. Defensive purpose, or what are incorrectly termed tactical lights are recognized by most trainers I have talked to, to be those lights of at least 80 lumens and most often have a forward clicky switch, with a momentary on being very handy for quick flashes. Another important feature is that if they are multilevel lights they come on in high power mode initially and do not change accidently by using momentary on function.
Lets pause one second here to talk lumens. There are various ways to determine lumens and no regulated way to report lumen output, some companies even use candlepower. Therefore some lumen rating will be more, some less, so use this as a general guideline unless you have your own way to accurately measure lumens, I don't. General utility lights are usually much less lumen output, or have multiple lumen output with some low settings for long use where less lumens are handy. These type lights can be activated by either forward or backward clicky switches, or twist head switches, both work equally well in general use. Just make sure it can be operated with one hand for emergency uses.
There are nice candidates out there these days in all battery sizes for each category, but for my money the AAA lights make carrying one, in each category, so easy as to be almost neglectful not to do so. I will list a few such options, but remember these are just the ones I own, and there are a lot more out there. So do not think these are all that is available.
I have always been a fan of the AAA penlight for every day use, but until recently the best I could do for a reasonable amount of light was the AAA Minimag. Useful size, and semi-useful light output, but the battery life was less than desirable, and do not even talk replacing a blown bulb in the dark, fun stuff. Nowadays I find my options wide open for a general carry light.
For comparison purposes there are a few old style popular lights to compare to:
Maglight 3C 76 lumens 1 hour to 50% and 8 hours to dead
Maglight 2AA 5.3 lumens 30 minutes to 50% and 5 hours dead
Maglight 2AAA 2.3 lumens 45 minutes to 50% and 2 hours dead
Maglight Solitare 1 AAA 1 lumen 30 minutes to 50% and 3 hours dead
Surefire 6P 120 lumens 20 minutes to 50% 30 minutes dead
My current favorite general purpose lights are carried in a number of ways, the picture shows the AA and AAA Minimags for size comparison. In order they are:
1.Fenix L0PSE – this is an older light now replaced by the L0D Fenix series. This is a twisty head light with three level settings, which provides me with plenty of light options and long runtime. This is carried in my pocket every day. I cannot find the manufacturers specs anymore but the L0Ds are easily available. They provide 85, 28, 9 lumens for 1, 3.5, and 11 hours respectively. The price is around $35.
2.Streamlight Microstream – Forward clicky 1AAA light I carry in my shorts or sweatpants everyday, one of my most used lights. It provides 28 lumens for 2.5 hours. It normally costs around $20.
3.Streamlight Stylus Pro – Forward clicky 2 AAA light I carry in my workbag for daily inspections. Provides 48 lumens for about 6 hours runtime, all for about $22. There is also a Pro Tac AAA version whish provides defensive use capability throwing 80 lumens with a forward clicky momentary on capable switch.
4.Four Sevens Preon II – Reverse clicky design with no momentary on, uses 2 AAA batteries. I carry this one every day in my leather jacket or winter coat. Occasionally in my hip pocket when wandering out at night in warmer weather. It provides 2.2, 22, and 160 lumens (plus some other various settings like SOS) for 23, 6, and 8/10s hours respectively. Prices normally range around $50 for this beauty.
Now with improved Cree and other type LED technology there are updated tactical and defensive lights as well, in very reasonable price ranges. I have two relatively new lights in this category for AAA, which look extremely promising and reliable so far; with the added bonus they are each below $20. In the picture they are as follows:
1.Romisen RC-F7 – 1 AAA forward clicky light with momentary on, which I have been carrying in my change pocket. It provides 90 lumens for over 30 minutes when I tested the run time. The cost was only $13. This one if it lasts like I hope is a best-sized buy for a defensive light and will be a perfect pocket carry companion for my longer lasting Fenix L0P.
2.TerraLux Lightstar 80 – a 2 AAA forward clicky light with momentary on. This provides 80 lumens for 5 hours. This one I just received and have not found a place for, but it might replace the Preon in my jacket for it's momentary on feature if it work and lasts well. An added feature is the rubber bite pad for moth holding use. Price was a reasonable $18.
There are a few of my favorite AAA options and how I carry them. They are the best I have found for myself, they serve me extremely well. Todays lights are smaller, brigher and cheaper then ever, so you should never have a reason to be caught in the dark.

Everyone has a story inspired by Chevrolet
Keith E. Crain, Editor-in-Chief |
Baseball, hot dogs, apple pie and Chevrolet.
It was a great advertising slogan, and it symbolizes what Chevrolet has been over the decades.
Many of us remember Chevrolet after World War II. We can still sing along with Dinah Shore telling us to see the U.S.A. in our Chevrolet. We have watched Chevrolets compete on race tracks across the country. Chevy has been an important part of American culture for a century.
When car companies were starting up a century ago, Louis Chevrolet may not have been the best businessman in the nation. But he had a reputation as a race car driver, and he lent his name to a car that has endured as an iconic brand long after his accomplishments have been forgotten.
Chevrolet is a part of America. It is deeply rooted in our society and our memories. Everyone has a story about a Chevrolet.
And it has lasted much longer than most products. Now Chevrolet has joined a handful of other car brands globally that have survived a century in the marketplace.
No one really knows what Louis Chevrolet had in mind when he started the company that bears his name. But after 100 years, we have a bright and strong image of this automobile brand.
This special issue of Automotive News pays tribute to Chevrolet and all the people who helped it survive and prosper over 100 years. These 100 stories will remind everyone in this business just how Chevrolet has grown and changed over the decades.
It is a great story of America. We hope you enjoy the issue.

e-Learning for Museum and School Environments

The project aims to create and implement a new e-learning environment that demonstrates the potential of the e-learning solutions for specific user groups.
The proposed project aims at the networking of specialised cultural and educational institutions, specifically museums and schools, for the development of common learning materials and services based on their contents and their research resources, in order to create and implement a new e-learning environment that demonstrate the potential of the e-learning solutions for specific user groups.
On the one hand, school, as the main provider of the formal education, works mainly upon pre-defined static curricula and the learning process is based on the traditional relationship between teachers and learners that is gradually enriched with the potentialities for interaction with new information technologies.
On the other hand, museum, is by definition an institution "in the service of society and of its development, which acquires, conserves, researches, communicates and exhibits, for purposes of study, education and enjoyment, material evidence of people and their environment" (ICOM).
In order for the museum to correspond to its communicative role it has adopted various ways of communication, mainly through the exhibitions of real objects, but also through publications and educational programmes. Especially, the establishment of educational departments in most European museums enforces the educative role of the museum and its evolvement to an alternative, non formal learning environment. Additionally, in order to meet the demands of the digital age, museums gradually open up to the challenges of the new information technologies.
The proposed project will provide the methods and the tools a) for teachers and curriculum authors to create a plethora of multidisciplinary and engaging educational activities b) for learners to collaboratively participate in vivid adventures designed with specific educational goals in mind, c) for providers of cultural and historical content to channel their resources in educationally meaningful ways.
The project will provide the means for the easy setup of individualized and culture-specific based activities around broad themes, for example society, economy, politics and culture in ancient world, in order to proliferate innovative activity in the school system and in the museum environment.
he project will develop in a pilot stage the theme of the "Olympic Games in Ancient World", which is of great significance given the forthcoming Athens Olympics of 2004 organised in their birthplace for the first time after their revival in 1896.
The project activities, therefore, will focus on the historical background, the tradition of the athletic games, their importance and social - political impact in different times, so as to trace their evolution and all the peripheral themes.
The participant institutions will use common resources, conventional and digital ones, to plan and implement common on-site and online educational activities in school and museum environment.
Anticipated results
Anticipated results include:
1. A set of learning activities which are based on common curricula, objectives, and resources among the participating countries, and are adapted to the needs of school students whenever they act as museum visitors, linking digital with on-site resources and thus creating a unique experience within a challenging learning environment..
2. Software tools that facilitate these activities by exploiting state-of-the-art computer and communication technologies, like Java and the internet. The technological infrastructure will provide all the features to support the required kinds of interaction within a shared spatio-temporal terrain (interactive maps and 3D spaces along the temporal axis), navigational aids (bound by the scientific knowledge of each historical period), "mind-tools" to visualize and observe, manipulate information and reason with (e.g. database filtering and querying tools, graphs, interactive timelines, etc), and the means to collaborate in real time with colleagues in order to coordinate the task at hand (e.g. exchange findings with colleagues that "meet" at same place of the common terrain).
3. Production of a model of best practice activities that can be transferred and adapted to many other similar structures in Europe. Establishment of a direct, solid link between museum and school in each participant country as well as among all the participant countries, for the creation of a network that will have the potential to expand and encompass other education providers in the future.
Main objectives
The main challenge of the project is to develop and generalize IT uses in both formal and non-formal educational environment. This will be based on elaborating and validating concrete propositions of activities that will help switching from a conception of school where teachers transmit knowledge to more or less passive receivers, to a conception of school where teachers create situations and environments which lead the students to look for and to develop, by themselves, the information, the knowledge and the methods they need in order to reach the objectives they targeted.
At the same time, museums will become an open, more friendly learning environment, where on-site and online activities will take place with the advantageous presence of the real exhibits. Within the above-mentioned framework the project has the following objectives:
-To provide the European youth of the digital age with multiple opportunities to understand their situation and perspective within the modern world and equip themselves with communication and thinking abilities that will allow them to be aware of the stakes behind the issues of our era and be able to manage them in a responsible way both at the individual and collective level. School students will take advantage of both formal and non-formal educational practices taken place in the school and the museum environment, as well as of the potentials of ICT as a learning tool.
-To enhance the impact of the history and culture courses already provided by the formal educational system, by taking advantage of the museum's mission to collect and exhibit real objects representative of human culture through time, in order to establish an active, interactive relationship, a "dialogue" between the learners and the original exhibits through the introduction and full use of ICT. Classical education, especially the study of history and culture, is considered as an important resource in the acquisition of the above mentioned abilities.

HP Mayors Race Boiling Down To Three
by Paul C. Clark
Staff Writer
write the author
November 01, 2012
When push comes to shove on Tuesday, Nov. 6, whether or not
High Point
City Councilmember Bernita Sims becomes the next mayor of
High Point
will depend on whether or not voters feel strongly about the differences between the other candidates, Councilmember Chris Whitley and Coy Williard.
The numbers are in Sims' favor in the mayoral race. She is a black Democrat going up against Whitley and Williard, both white Republicans, in the general election, which by default gives her a majority of votes in Wards 1 and 2 and a respectable Democratic vote in the other wards.
It's possible for Williard or Whitley to defeat Sims. But that happening would require an extremely lopsided white, Republican vote.
In other words, to defeat Sims, Whitley would have to beat Williard, or Williard beat Whitley, decisively winning almost all of the Republican vote or a large majority of the white vote. Given the facts that Whitley and Williard have different constituencies, and that the two candidates are increasingly at odds, it's hard to picture either of them beating the other decisively enough to overtake Sims' built-in lead.
Members of the
High Point
Rotary Club got a look at all three candidates in action at a candidates' forum on Thursday, Oct. 25 at First Presbyterian Church on North Main Street. At a mayoral debate on Oct. 17 at the Pennybyrn at Maryfield retirement home on Penny Road, Sims did not attend and was represented by her campaign manager, Vicki Alston.
"It kind of started out as a five-person race," said
High Point
Rotary Club President Kelly Sain. "It got down to four. And, as you can see today, it's kind of a three-person race."
Two inactive candidates will be on the Nov. 6 ballot: motivational speaker Tammy Holyfield, who withdrew from the race, and Matthew Fowler, who hasn't been seen since he filed to run.
Williard seems tailor-made as a Rotary Club candidate. On the campaign trail he has said, if elected he will govern judging each action by four criteria: Is it the truth? Is it fair to all concerned? Will it build goodwill and better friendships? And will it be beneficial to all concerned?
That's the Rotarian 4-Way Test, the club's guiding principles. Fine principles, but Williard's use of them on the stump is also a signal to Rotarians and other business people that he's one of them. Williard is a member of Furnitureland Rotary Club, not
High Point
Rotary, but the connection is there just the same.
Neither Whitley nor Sims are Rotarians. But both are longtime councilmembers, and many of the businesses represented at the Rotary luncheon regularly need permits, rezoning and the like from the city. That, and fairness and goodwill, earned them a respectful hearing.
The luncheon was not so much a debate as a chance for each candidate to give a 10-minute speech to the business community.
Sims went first, reluctantly.
"I don't know about this being first thing," she said. "I had a rousing closing."
Sims told of growing up off College Drive, attending
High Point
schools, then graduating from high school in Maryland and from the University of the District of Columbia and working for private companies. She said, "I have worked with multimillion-dollar budgets."
Sims now works as a night manager at a
High Point
Sims has been on the City Council since 2002. She said, "I also knew there was a segment of this community that needed better representation on a board that was responsible for the things that affected their lives."
Sims listed the many City Council committees she has served on, and said she is committed to the city revitalization plans of the
High Point
City Project.
Sims said she had served on committees that approved infrastructure, including storm drainage, sewer, roads and larger recycling containers, which she credited with prolonging the life of the current landfill.
Sims accused some of this year's City Council candidates of being "irresponsible" in reporting tax rates without properly explaining last year's property revaluation by the county. She said the City Council went three years without a tax increase. It has approved tax increases for the last two years.
"The City of
High Point
has no input in the valuation process," she said. "This is handled by the county."
Sims said she wants the City Council, after consulting with community leaders, to be more active in planning the future of
High Point
. She said, "Invariably, it all comes back to quality-of-life issues."
Williard followed Sims. He kicked off by buttering up the Rotary Club and quoting the 4-Way Test, then said he graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1967 and had been a business and civic leader for 40 years. He listed some of his numerous memberships in business and community organizations.
Williard credited
High Point
University President and CEO Nido Qubein and
High Point
attorney and former state Rep. Jim Morgan, who he called
High Point
's "energizer bunnies," with motivating him to run.
Williard said he would, if elected, support the City Project's revitalization efforts, advocate for education and work to attract businesses to
High Point
"I will definitely work to reduce taxes," he said. "I will not raise taxes. I will not support wasteful spending."
Williard parodied Hillary Clinton's 2008 primary ad with a ringing telephone representing a national crisis only, in Williard's version, it is a call from a company wanting to settle in
High Point
. He said, "Who do you want to take that call."
Williard also repeated his call for voters to vote for Sims or Whitley if they consider City Council experience important.
"What do I bring to the table?" he said. "Leadership."
Williard's construction company is successful, and at the Rotary luncheon he listed employees that had been with him for decades.
Whitley batted cleanup at the luncheon.
Whitely began by quoting NC state Rep. and former
High Point
City Councilmember John Faircloth as saying, "Chris isn't necessarily the best speaker, but he's the kind of person who's going to be working in the background and getting things done."
Faircloth said at the end of the luncheon that the quote did not mean he is endorsing Whitley. Faircloth said he is remaining neutral in the mayoral race.
Despite his disclaimer, Whitley spoke well, laying out his 19 years of City Council experience and his business experience. Whitley is president of RCW International Inc., which deals with commodities, and is a partner in S.E. Whitley and Son contractors.
Whitley, like Sims, touted his City Council and committee experience, and the businesses that have moved to
High Point
or expanded recently, including Stanley Furniture and Solstas Lab Partners.
Whitley asked, "Is it the responsibility of government to create jobs, or to create opportunities for business to create jobs?" He opted for the latter. Whitley has been an opponent of giving companies financial incentives to locate or expand in
High Point
, but has softened that stance since the economy took a nosedive.

page 2
...continued from
page 1
Whitley blamed the tax increase on Guilford County's eight-year revaluation schedule. "It happened to come in a downturn and it hit
High Point
property owners hard."
Whitley said the luncheon debate was his third event of the day. He said, "That's the kind of commitment you've got to have to be mayor."
Whitley called for turning some of
High Point
's many one-way streets back into two-way streets. He said, "I think that would create some opportunities for development."
After the candidates spoke, Sain said that everyone in the room supports the betterment of
High Point
. He said, "We will work with whoever wins to make this the best place to live and work and play."

Well, well. It does not pay to vote for Baracka Hussein Claus.
I believe Yahweh says differently.
Obviously American Jews don´t care about Israel...
Does anyone think this would be going on if the muzzies knew that Romney was the next president? Elections have consequences. Israel is screwed and we´re next if Obama stays in office.
"Abbas: Jerusalem Is Ours"If this clown believes that, I am sure he also believes that Muhammad Claus bring them a goat or sheep as a plaything for Christmas.
To the best of my knowledge, they have never laid claim to Jerusalem, and still do not. They recorded megahits like "Dancing Queen" "Fernando" and "Voulez Vous", but never concerned themselves with territorial disputes.
God said Israel is His forever! LetAbbas fight it out with Him!Israel is so small and yet they are continually persecuted. Why? Because that is where Jesus was born/lived/died and rose again to "save" everyone from Satan.Just who do they think they are?They will find out who is in control!
I was wondering who constitutes a Palestinian. This odd ball state of Arabs is apparently made up of former nomads from Egypt and Saudi Arabia.
I think I remember Morsi claim Jerusalem will be the capital of Egypt at one point.Netenyahu is the most besieged person on the planet right now,when it should clearly be Obama.Obama gets a peace prize for doing absolutely nothing and then instigates the conditions for WWIII.A young girl was just beheaded in Afghanistan for refusing to go along with an arranged marriage and you haven´t heard a peep for human rights activists.At he same time they´re screaming about fake dead bodies the Pallis put out there as victims of Israeli missile attacks.
Good one, #6.
Small problem here. Jerusalem is the City of David. An old book says so.Too bad for Abbas.He will eventually be proved wrong.You want to talk about eternity, better get with the One Who is from the Beginning!
Abbas was raised believing the Koran and is ignorant of history . The palestinians are just stage hands moving the props in the greatest play ever written and none of them have seen the script.

Brothers charged in home burglary
TUSCUMBIA — Two brothers are charged in connection with the December burglary of a Colbert County residence, officials said.
James Andrews, 28, 2014 Cole Ave., Florence, and his brother, Brandon Andrews, 31, 255 Key Springs Road, Hamilton, are charged with third-degree burglary and first-degree theft of property, Colbert County Sheriff Ronnie May said Friday.
May said the brothers are charged in connection with the Dec. 30 burglary of a residence on Jones Road in the Barton community.
Reports indicate a set of Wilson golf clubs, a box of comic books, a laptop, an assortment of tools and several pieces of furniture were taken in the burglary.
Authorities said James Andrews, after becoming a suspect, was interviewed Monday and indicated his brother, Brandon, had given him a set of golf clubs.
May said investigators went to Brandon Andrews' house and discovered an assortment of tools and a box of comic books.
Both men are being held in the Colbert County Jail, with bail set at $6,000.
Police: Offender failed to register
RUSSELLVILLE — A man convicted of sexual abuse of a teen in Lauderdale County in 2007 is back in jail after police said he failed to register as a sex offender.
Osebio James Cabrera, 27, 135 Icy Road, Russellville, is charged with failure to register as a sex offender, Russellville Police Chief Chris Hargett said Friday.
Police said Cabrera was arrested Thursday night at the residence.
"He was supposed to have moved to Autauga County and was living there, but then he shows up here and doesn't register," Russellville police investigator Lt. Scotty Lowery said.
Lowery said Cabrera registered in Lauderdale County before moving to Autauga County.
"According to the Autauga Sheriff's Office, he was in noncompliance (with the convicted sex offender requirements) since March 2011," Lowery said.
Lowery said it's not clear how long Cabrera has been living in Russellville.
Alabama Department of Public Safety Community Information Center data shows Cabrera was arrested April 11, 2006, and convicted for first-degree sexual abuse June 1, 2007.
The victim was a 16-year-old girl. Cabrera is being held in the Russellville City Jail without bail.

pHion Green Superfood - PowderpHion Green Superfood - Powder
pHion Green Superfood - Powder Highlights:
Reasons to buy Super alkalizing. pHion Green Superfood contains the most complete blend of over 30 different alkaline forming foods - including alkalizing organic grasses, veggies and sprouts aimed at neutralizing damaging acids found in your system. Super concentrated. Just one teaspoon of pHion Green Superfood provides the nutrient equivalent of more than one pound of vegetables! Great tasting. In fact, pHion Green Superfood powder tastes so good, you'll forget it's green! Raw. Our gentle, low heat process insures that all of the nutrients in pHion Green Superfood stay intact. Super bioavailable. Because our formula contains Cerecalase, a patented blend of enzymes, the ingredients are up to 48% more bioavailable than the greens in other products.
Product Details Do you have it all backwards? In developed countries, we pretty much eat the opposite of how our bodies were designed to eat. The human body thrives when it maintains a slightly alkaline pH, in other words, a pH that's between 7.0 - 7.25. (The pH scale goes from 0-14, where 0 is very acidic and 14 is very alkaline.) How do you achieve that magic pH balance? Primarily by eating the right balance of foods. Think of your diet like a math equation. In this math equation, alkalizing foods (mainly vegetables and some fruits) all score well over 7.0. And acidifying foods, which include just about everything else we eat (meat, poultry, pasteurized dairy products, processed grains, packaged foods, trans-fats, and processed sugar), all score under 7.0. In order to ensure that your body is at a nice 7.25, you have to eat more alkalizing foods than acidifying ones. In fact, many experts - including Dr. Christopher Vasey - recommend a two-thirds to one-third ratio. Unfortunately, the vast majority of Americans do the opposite. They eat two-thirds (or more) acidifying foods and only one-third (or less) alkalizing foods. That�s why a greens product like pHion Green Superfood is so essential. We've made it easy to be green! No one expects you to always eat a diet of two-thirds alkalizing foods and one-third acidifying. That would be nice, and we certainly recommend it, but we�re also realists here at pHion. That's why we developed pHion Green Superfood. pHion Green Superfood contains over 30 different ingredients - including alkalizing organic grass juices, alkalizing veggies and alkalizing sprouts. The ingredients in pHion Green Superfood are so alkalizing, they easily make up for the gaps in your diet. So basically, in 30 seconds you can get your greens for the entire day. Not only are these greens, veggies, sprouts and fruits alkalizing, they're also a concentrated source of nutrition, delivering a wealth of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, chlorophyll, enzymes, and phyto-nutrients. And best of all, the grasses in pHion Green Superfood are certified organic. So you don't have to worry about pesticides, herbicides, insecticides, fumigants, or any other garbage ending up in your green drink. More absorbable too! The last thing that makes pHion Green Superfood superior to the other greens on the market is that we�ve included Cerecalase in our formula. Cerecalase is a patented blend of enzymes that allows the ingredients in pHion Green Superfood to be up to 48% more bioavailable than those in other products. Order today! So unless you're managing to eat a diet where your intake of alkaline foods outweighs your intake of acidifying foods every single day, you'll want to start taking pHion Green Superfood... the easy way to get your daily greens! Product Ingredients Chlorophyll: The Secret Power Behind Green Foods All of the alkalizing greens in pHion Green Superfood get their color from chlorophyll the same pigment that makes vegetables like spinach and kale dark green. Many alternative practitioners recommend chlorophyll for building the blood (which in turn increases energy). Why? Because its chemical structure is almost identical to that of hemoglobin. Both molecules feature an arrangement of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen around a single atom. The only difference is that the center atom of hemoglobin is iron, while the center atom of chlorophyll is magnesium. Chlorophyll also has a reputation for detoxifying the blood and liver. Initial research validates this usage: Several test tube and animals studies have shown that chlorophyll inhibits abnormal cellular changes caused by toxic agents. The amazing blend of 30 ingredients contained within pHion Green Superfood can be divided into three main categories: Alkalizing Organic Cereal Grasses, Alkalizing Veggies and Alkalizing Sprouts. We�ve also included Cerecalase - an enzyme blend for optimal absorption of all the ingredients. 1. Alkalizing Concentrated Organic Grass Juices: Bursting with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and chlorophyll, green cereal grasses are often used to improve digestion and energy. In fact, a recent study found that compared to placebo, wheat grass juice normalized the number of bowel movements and promoted rectal health in individuals with colon issues. Another study found that barley grass, in combination with a mostly raw vegetarian diet, significantly improved the quality of life in people suffering from fatigue coupled with pain in the muscles, joints, and ligaments. If you think about it, it makes perfect sense. Acid causes inflammation, whether in the colon or the joints. Alkaline substances quell inflammation. So if you suffer from colon or joint issues, and you alkalize your system, chances are, you�ll neutralize any inflammation there and experience a higher quality of life. pHion Green Superfood contains: Organic Wheat Grass Juice, Organic Barley Grass Juice, Organic Oat Grass Juice and Organic Alfalfa Juice. 2. Alkalizing Veggies: Ideally, you want to get as many vegetables from your diet as possible. But who really eats the minimum of 5 servings of fruits and vegetables per day (as recommended by the Dietary Guidelines for Americans)? The answer? Eleven percent of the population. That's right, a newly released study found that only 11% of 15,000 American adults studied actually ate 2 servings of fruit and 3 servings of vegetables per day. If you�re not among that 11%, why not get some of your veggies the easy way, with pHion Green Superfood? pHion Green Superfood contains: Broccoli Juice Powder, Carrot Juice Powder, Cucumber Powder, Cauliflower, Kale Powder, Spinach Juice Powder, Tomato Juice Powder, Brussels Sprout Powder, Asparagus Juice Powder, Green Bell Pepper Powder, Chicory Root, Lo Han Guo, Spirulina. Note: Spirulina is a form of algae. However, unlike most algaes that grow in acidic water, spirulina grows in mineral rich alkaline water with a pH of 10.5. It is considered highly alkalizing because of its rich chlorophyll and mineral content. Spirulina is 65% bioavailable protein by weight and has most of the nutrients necessary to sustain life, including vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids. 3. Alkalizing Sprouts: At no other time in a plant�s maturity cycle does it contain more concentrated nutrition than during the initial sprout phase. In fact, young plants achieve their highest nutrient density within 5-10 days of life. During this time of intense growth, the enzymes, proteins, vitamins, and minerals within sprouts are multiplying exponentially. That�s why sprouts are such a great source of life-giving nutrition. Sprouts may contain concentrations of various compounds at levels far beyond what is seen in the mature plant. Broccoli sprouts, for example, contain much higher levels of the phyto-nutrient sulforphane, which is an excellent detoxifier. In fact, because of their pumped up sulforphane levels, broccoli sprouts are estimated to contain anywhere from 10-100 times the power of fully grown broccoli to induce phase 2 detoxification enzymes. Not surprisingly, research has shown these power-packed �mini-broccolis� counteract the abnormal cellular changes caused by toxic agents. pHion Green Superfood contains: Amaranth Sprouts, Broccoli Sprouts, Fenugreek Sprouts, Kamut Sprouts and Quinoa Sprouts. 4. Cerecalase. As long as you're adding extra greens to your diet, why not choose a formula designed to maximize your absorption of all the nutrition they contain? pHion Green Superfood is specially formulated with Cerecalase�. This patented, proprietary blend of enzymes and the minerals that activate them - helps you break down and utilize all the greens in pHion Green Superfood Powder. Nine years of clinical research has shown that Alkazyme increases the bioavailability of ingredients by 12-48%! A smart and easy way to get plenty of greens is by taking pHions Green Superfood Powder and to ensure that you never miss the greens your body requires. * These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. * This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease.

ATLANTA - Cliff Lee's stay on the disabled list may not be much longer than the mandated 15 days.
Lee threw what he termed a pain-free bullpen session Wednesday at Turner Field, taking the next step in his recovery from a strained left side. He is eligible to be activated Friday, but it won't happen then. Still, there is optimism.
The lefthander said he is scheduled to throw another bullpen Saturday. If that goes well, he could be activated next week.

Steamboat Springs The Steamboat Springs High School hockey team tied Dakota Ridge at 4 on Saturday in a physical matchup.
Steamboat, 6-8-2, held the lead for most of the night before Dakota Ridge scored a goal midway through the third period to send it to overtime.
The game was marked by penalties, the scorekeeper having to substitute pens to fill out the scorecard.
Between the two teams, there were 28 penalties including three game misconducts.
"I'm not even sure where to start," Steamboat coach Benny Tollar said, holding back in a game where penalties dictated any type of rhythm for either team.
Steamboat, however, had every chance to win it in regulation.
The Sailors took a 2-1 first period lead on a pair of power play goals by Michael Samuelson and Christina Ramirez.
Dakota Ridge tied at 2 to start the second before Matt Hale and Ramirez bookended goals in the second to send the Sailors to a 4-3 lead heading into the third period.
Dakota Ridge's Joey Doice got the equalizer midway through the third to tie it at 4.
Late though, Steamboat stemmed off a long 5 on 3 power play that kept the result. It was a crucial stand for a Steamboat team looking to make the playoffs.
Steamboat next plays at 6:30 p.m. Friday at home against Fountain Valley.
"The positives are we play well at home," Tollar said. "We close the schedule there. I believe the kids will step up their game."
All four home games — where the team closes out the season — remain crucial. Steamboat is 10th in the Foothills Conference. The top eight make the state playoffs.

Product Pathways - MAPK Signaling
p38δ MAPK (10A8) Rabbit mAb #2308
PhosphoSitePlus® protein, site, and accession data: p38-delta
Applications | Reactivity | Sensitivity | MW (kDa) | Isotype |
W IP | H R | Endogenous | 43 | Rabbit IgG |
Applications Key:
W=Western Blotting
Reactivity Key:
Species cross-reactivity is determined by western blot. Species enclosed in parentheses are predicted to react based on 100% sequence homology.
Specificity / Sensitivity
p38δ MAP Kinase (10A8) Rabbit mAb detects endogenous levels of total p38δ MAP kinase protein. This antibody does not cross-react with other isoforms of p38 MAPK.
Source / Purification
Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues around the carboxy terminus of p38δ MAPK.
p38 MAP kinase (MAPK), also called RK (1) or CSBP (2), is the mammalian orthologue of the yeast HOG kinase that participates in a signaling cascade controlling cellular responses to cytokines and stress (1-4). Four isoforms of p38 MAPK, p38α, β, γ (also known as Erk6 or SAPK3), and δ (also known as SAPK4) have been identified. Similar to the SAPK/JNK pathway, p38 MAPK is activated by a variety of cellular stresses including osmotic shock, inflammatory cytokines, lipopolysaccharide (LPS), UV light, and growth factors (1-5). MKK3, MKK6, and SEK activate p38 MAPK by phosphorylation at Thr180 and Tyr182. Activated p38 MAPK has been shown to phosphorylate and activate MAPKAP kinase 2 (3) and to phosphorylate the transcription factors ATF-2 (5), Max (6), and MEF2 (5-8).SB203580 (4-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(4-methylsulfinylphenyl)-5-(4-pyridyl)-imidazole) is a selective inhibitor of p38 MAPK. This compound inhibits the activation of MAPKAPK-2 by p38 MAPK and subsequent phosphorylation of HSP27 (9). SB203580 inhibits p38 MAPK catalytic activity by binding to the ATP-binding pocket, but does not inhibit phosphorylation of p38 MAPK by upstream kinases (10).

Safe Passage: Astronaut Care for Exploration Missions sets forth a vision for space medicine as it applies to deep space voyage. As space missions increase in duration from months to years and extend well beyond Earth s orbit, so will the attendant risks of working in these extreme and isolated environmental conditions. Hazards to astronaut health range from greater radiation exposure and loss of bone and muscle density to intensified psychological stress from living with others in a confined space. Going beyond the body of biomedical research, the report examines existing space medicine clinical and behavioral research and health care data and the policies attendant to them. It describes why not enough is known today about the dangers of prolonged travel to enable humans to venture into deep space in a safe and sane manner. The report makes a number of recommendations concerning NASA s structure for clinical and behavioral research, on the need for a comprehensive astronaut health care system and on an approach to communicating health and safety risks to astronauts, their families, and the public.

Here's something I started ages ago but couldn't find it in me to finish. I simply didn't like the way it was going and couldn't do anything with it, so it hit the crapper. Plus, I couldn't find anything that would work for the front.
it's a shame because it could've been awesome.
Well, I have to finish my Silent Hill series sometime, and I almost finished my SH4 box, but for some reason, I just didn't add the final touches to it.
I may return to that series, I may have to do a Shattered Memories box =D
I made this around the time of the elections, last year. I never got the time to finish it, and when I did it was too late - palin jokes were run into the ground by the media.
I had some ideas for the back cover - namely taglines such as "the hokey mom sensation stagnating the nation" and "setting back american women - one interview at a time". They all seem so stupid now, ha.
This one's dated late March, but I don't remember making it at all...I must've been pretty out of it at the time...that tends to happen :P.
Still, there are parts of it I like. Do you find it salvagable?
My Mirror's Edge box which I started probably around mid-December...yeah.
Meh I didn't really liked this
I don't know if i should post it...
Edit: LMAO, dmshaposv thats hilarious!

If you've ever seen the TV reality show "Undercover Boss," you'll know that the premise involves corporate CEOs working anonymously on the front lines to find out how their companies really work. Almost every week, they discover a key truth: Unhappy employees almost certainly guarantee unhappy customers. If you've ever encountered a little travel snafu, you know what I mean.
Scheduled to fly out of Chicago one recent evening, I ran into numerous difficulties including a nearly missed flight, conflicting and just plain wrong information, and rude personnel. I couldn't find an employee who was either informed or interested. These challenges weren't the real problem in my book. The issue was almost certainly a severe case of unhappy employees. What was the reason?
Statistics say that almost 50% of us don't trust our leaders. Think about it. The world's most admired companies are at the top of the heap for a reason. It's no surprise that Fortune's recent top 10 picks included Apple, Google and Southwest Airlines. What's their secret?
Here are five key questions you can ask yourself to put your company at the top of the list.
- What's your reputation? Credibility, knowledge and expertise really do count. When it comes to your reputation, clients and customers want to know three things: One, that you know your stuff; two, that you've done it before and can do it again; and three, that you know your stuff.
- Does the company clearly communicate its goals and direction? Recently, I worked with a client whose goal was to become best-in-class in its category. When we surveyed employees, the client was startled to learn that its team could not clearly articulate the company's vision. Take the time to find out if your crew truly understands your firm's goals. You may be surprised.
- Does top management exhibit genuine concern for employees' well-being? In a recent training session, I overheard two participants complaining about recent organizational changes in their company. The kicker? Their boss agreed with them (publicly) that the changes were driving the organization into the ground. Did he earn their trust and respect? Not likely. Face it: Employees will know it if you're all talk and no walk. Now's the time to reassess.
- Do employees feel their work is valued? A Gallup poll says almost 50% of employees are not engaged in their work. Taking the time to make sure everyone knows the work they do is important can result in a big payoff: engaged employees and satisfied clients.
- Do employees have clear accountability? This one starts at the top. Make sure everyone understands his or her level of accountability and responsibility. If you're wondering exactly how important trust and respect are to your business, remember Enron. 'Nuff said.
I admit it, I'm picky. I think good leadership comes down to this: Our employees want to work for — and our clients want to work with — leaders they like and respect. So do your homework: Choreograph it carefully. Me, I'll be watching TV.

Transparency is a key element in trust. The more we disclose to employees, the less we hide and the more authentic the conversations become. For those uncomfortable with the process, read Jack Stack's book, The Great Game of Business. http://bit.ly/l82wd7
Great post! It seems like so many organizations shoot themselves in the collective foot by either assuming their employees trust them or creating a noble values statement that never leaves the paper it's written on. When people know the values but see them ignored, trust in the leadership goes out the window. There's a good, in-depth article on the topic of trust that just came out, "The Leadership Trust and Values Dilemma: Undermining Business Results with the Best Intentions." You can see it at http://www.impactachievement.com/Trust_and_Values….

Now is NOT the Time to Ease Off Your SEO!
One of the worst mistakes a site owner can make with their SEO is to assume that once they reach the top of the SERPs then it's time to call it a day and wind down their SEO campaign. That's like a NASCAR driver taking their foot of the gas and just cruising in on the last five laps—the competition is going to catch up a lot quicker than you think! If your site is positioned well in the SERP, now is the time to pounce! Never take a shortsighted approach to your SEO and assume it's done. There is always new opportunities to take advantage of and help grow your online brand.
Don't look at SEO as a line item in the budget.
Many companies (or at least some members of the management team) just see SEO as another line on their budget. They may think to themselves, "We achieved our objectives, why keep paying? It's done and done, right?" Unfortunately that's not how SEO works. For many businesses, whether they realize it or not, SEO is the lifeblood of their online marketing that generates most of their new business. Can your company afford to fall in the SERP? How much traffic would your website lose if your site dropped from the #1 spot to the #5 spot? How many new customers would your site fail to convert?
Companies that are ranked well in the search engines have to realize there is a big, red bull's-eye painted on their back and the competition is determined to unseat you. Just like you were determined to reach the top of the SERP and reap the benefits of ranking #1, so are they. The only thing in their way is your website. If you stop your SEO campaign and they don't, how long before their efforts start to overshadow yours?
If your site is positioned well, instead of trimming down your SEO budget, why not repurpose it? Can you pay your SEO provider or hire a freelance SEO copywriter to write more content for your blog and article marketing campaign? Can you devote more of your budget to enhancing your social media presence? Are there extra industry conferences you could sponsor? Rework the existing budget and find new ways to build your online brand?
Now is the time to really ramp up your content marketing and help further cement your website in the top of the SERP. The more content you publish the more inbound links you create, while simultaneously establishing more touch points to engage your target audience with. Since content feeds your social media marketing campaigns, publishing more content also gives your social networks more opportunities to share the content, building your overall social presence and developing social signals that can positively impact your SEO.
Remember—SEO is a marathon, not a sprint. Once you accomplish all your online goals, you still have to work to hold onto them.

Nick, I find that most of my small business customers have cash constraints that force them to "turn-off" their SEO efforts once their short-term goals are achieved.
For me, convincing them of the importance of continuing with their SEO efforts is probably a more difficult task than the actual SEO effort.
As always thanks and Happy Holidays!
Yeah Matt, its difficault cause the customers arn't often familar with SEO. Anyway, nice article Nick with good points to think about.

Sodexo and egg/potato supplier Michael Foods have been found guilty of price discrimination by a U.S. District Court. The United States District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania found that Michael Foods discriminated against plaintiff Feesers, Inc., a regional foodservice distributor, by charging it higher prices than it charged Sodexo. Sodexo, was found to have "unlawfully induced or received such price discrimination in violation of the Robinson-Patman Act."
The court enjoined Michael Foods from discriminating as to price against Feesers and Sodexo from continuing to receive or induce such price discrimination. Feesers was not seeking any damages, only injunctive relief.
The decision ends more than five years of litigation for Harrisburg-based Feesers, which says it brought the lawsuit in order to level the playing field between broadline food distributors and food management companies/group purchasing organizations.
"We are very happy with this result," says Feesers Chairman Lester Miller. "I decided to bring this case when I saw competition being destroyed in the industry that had provided me with a living for almost 60 years. Big food management companies and GPOs like Sodexho were getting unbelievable pricing discounts from suppliers like Michael Foods. The same discounts were not available to independent distributors like Feesers, and many of them were being driven out of business."
Feesers filed its complaint against Michael Foods and Sodexho on March 17, 2004, alleging price discrimination in violation of the Robinson-Patman Act. A three-week bench trial took place in early 2008 before Judge Sylvia Rambo in the federal district court in Harrisburg, which resulted in the recent decision.
At the trial, Michael Foods and Sodexho argued that Feesers and Sodexho were not in "actual competition" for purposes of the Robinson-Patman Act because Sodexho provides food management services to its customers, whereas Feesers is a food distributor. The court found, however, that both Feesers and Sodexho procure and distribute food for the same institutional customers and, thus, are in actual competition for the same food dollar.
Although the injunctions issued by the district court are binding only as to Michael Foods and Sodexho, it sets a legal precedent that prices charged by food suppliers to distributors such as Feesers that disadvantage them in favor of large-volume food management companies and GPOs will not be tolerated by the courts.
"Although this is obviously a big victory for Feesers, it is also a victory for the entire industry and will go a long way to restoring a competitive playing field in food distribution," says Feesers CEO John Tighe. "We at Feesers have grown our business by obtaining the best possible prices for our customers. This decision will allow us to continue to do so."

ASEP 2013 Fall ConferenceThe Fall Conference will be held at the University of Illinois at Chicago on Friday, Oct 11 and Saturday Oct 12, 2013. The Department of Kinesiology and Nutrition, College of Applied Health Sciences via Dr. Jeremy Fransen is sponsoring the Conference. More information will be available early 2013.ASEP Mission StatementThe American Society of Exercise Physiologists, the professional organization representing and promoting the profession of exercise physiology, is committed to the professional development of exercise physiology, its advancement, and the credibility of exercise physiologists.What is Exercise Physiology?Exercise Physiology is the identification of physiological mechanisms underlying physical activity, the comprehensive delivery of treatment services concerned with the analysis, improvement, and maintenance of health and fitness, rehabilitation of heart disease and other diseases and/or disabilities, and the professional guidance and counsel of athletes and others interested in athletics, sports training, and human adaptability to acute and chronic exercise. The Introduction to Exercise Physiology text is endorsed by the American Society of Exercise Physiologists (ASEP). For more information about exercise physiology as a healthcare profession, go straight to Jones and Bartlett Publishing or click on any number of Internet sites such as Introduction to Exercise Physiology. Who is an Exercise Physiologist?Exercise Physiologist is a healthcare professional who either has an academic degree in exercise physiology or who is certified by ASEP to practice exercise physiology [via the Exercise Physiologist Certified exam (EPC)], or who has a doctorate degree in exercise physiology from an accredited college or university. The Exercise Physiologist's PracticeEstablishing and implementing standards of practice are major functions of a professional organization. The purpose of the standards is to describe the responsibilities for which exercise physiologists are accountable. The Exercise Physiology Practice involves four areas: promoting health and wellness; preventing illness and disability; restoring health; and helping athletes reach their potential in sports training and performance.
A Board Certified Exercise Physiologist is a person who has passed the ASEP Exercise Physiologist Certified exam. EPCs are held accountable to the ASEP Code of Ethics and the Exercise Physiologist's Standards of Practice. "Professional Distinction with Board Certification"ASEP is important for many reasons, but one in particular is to promote the professional development of exercise physiology. Hence, implicit within the ASEP web pages is the notion that exercise physiology is a healthcare profession. The bulk of the epidemiologic evidence and the scientific papers by exercise physiologists support the health benefits of regular exercise. Moreover, it is clear that an active lifestyle protects from many diseases. Now, with the ASEP Board Certification as the gold standard for exercise physiologists, the supervision, safety, and care of clients are increasingly evident throughout the public sector. Personal trainers may or may not have a college degree and, if they do, the degree may or may not be in a related field. They are not qualified to earn the EPC degree. Therefore, they can neither be held accountable to the exercise physiology Code of Ethics nor practice exercise physiology.ASEP: A True Vision!"Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is a process. Working together is success." -- Henry Ford Professional exercise physiologists have a responsibility to create change in their professional arenas, whether that is in the clinical area, education, administration, business, or research. Personal attention, role modeling, precepting, and mentoring are all critical to sharing values and career goals and other significant matters, such as accreditation, board certification, and standards of practice. Exercise physiologists in the very near future will be recognized as healthcare professionals, which is certainly different from the old version of an exercise specialist, trainer, or fitness instructor. Exercise physiologists will have opportunities to serve their clients in diverse career venues and practices. This kind of responsibility requires a credible certification that reflects professionalism, protects the public, and strengthens the profession. |

By now, most of us are familiar with Anthony Weiner's personal behavioral lapses in his Twitter sex scandal. However, Weiner's public messaging failures in this case were also epic. Weiner adopted a strange strategy of denying part of the story, i.e., that he had sent photos of his underwear-clad crotch to a woman via Twitter, but then saying that he could not state "with certitude" whether the picture in question was of him. This vague answer struck many reporters as suspicious, and they continued their media feeding frenzy that, within a few days, led to Weiner's press conference where he did an about-face and admitted that the picture in question was of him, that he sent the photo, and that he had sent similar photos and/or had similar online exchanges with approximately six other women. Now Weiner's political career hangs by a thread.
So what could, and should, Weiner have done differently, messaging-wise, once the initial stories about him were publicized?
