Ergun Caner Saga
06/10/2010 - Tur8infan
"I would fight and die for a Muslim's right to build a mosque in every city in America." That's a line taken from what Caner's website in 2005 described this way:He debated Michael Moore in a nationally syndicated column entitled Hatriotism.I found what appears to be the colorful column (part 1)(part 2). The article is critical of Michael Moore, but it seems questionable to say that "He debated Michael Moore" based on the article, any more than I debated William Lane Craig by posting criticism of one of his articles (link).
The article itself raises a lot of good points. Nevertheless, mixed in there are some odd comments. Caner states, for example: "I am a Persian Turkish immigrant raised as a Sunni Muslim, and in the interest of full disclosure, I must state that I left Islam in 1982, the same year I became an American citizen." But elsewhere I recall him specifically saying he was Anatolian, not Persian. (see more examples here) Similarly his old bio page at Liberty (now gone) and his current bio page at TrueLife.org (link to bio including rather distinctive beard photo) say that he obtained citizenship in 1984, which would make more sense, since that is when he turned 18. One also might ask whether "full disclosure" might have been better served by providing a caveat such as "I was raised in suburban central Ohio." And Caner's book, Unveiling Islam suggests that Caner's conversion was the year before 1982: "Ergun then invited Emir to a revival service the following year. ... On November 4, 1982, Emir was born again." (Unveiling Islam, page 19)
I've posted a lot of documentation on the topic of the Caner saga. (indexed here) If I had limitless time, money, and interest, I suppose I could track down the data to prove whether Caner's background is Anatolian Turkish or Persian Turkish on his father's side. I could track down, I presume, what year he obtained citizenship - there must be an official record of it somewhere. Perhaps we could get someone with firsthand knowledge to confirm one of the two or more accounts regarding when Ergun came to Christ. But I lack the time and more importantly I lack the interest in pursuing these things further. It's sad enough that I found two different accounts of such things.
In fact, the whole saga brings me great sadness. I began looking more closely at the facts to rebut the false charge that Dr. Caner is a "fake ex-Muslim." And despite the inconsistencies, Dr. Caner is still a real ex-Muslim. Nevertheless, there are a number of troubling issues. I trust that God will work this out to the good of the called, though right now I do not see how.

Section 6A-South girls' basketball: Brandon-Evansville falls
By: Eric Morken, Alexandria Echo Press
The Brandon-Evansville girls saw their season come to an end on Saturday against Little Eight Conference foe Underwood.
The Rockets' size down low proved to be too much as Carly Masloski and Greta Thormodson combined for 37 points in leading their team to a 67-45 win in the Section 6A South semifinals. That came after the Chargers had worked their way there with a 49-44 win over Belgrade-Brooten-Elrosa in the quarterfinals last Thursday.
"We ran into a better team with more size and experience," Chargers head coach Dick Simpson said. "They start four seniors and every one of their players is bigger than ours. We were only down three at the half and were ahead for a little bit, but the second half they got the ball inside more."
That size down low allowed the Rockets to shoot high-percentage shots all night. They finished 30-of-51 from the field, compared to a 16-of-41 shooting night for Brandon-Evansville.
Megan Friedrich was the only player in double figures for the Chargers. She had 11. Carrigan Okerlund added nine, while Carlie Steffenson and Megan Kokett had eight and seven points, respectively. Underwood dominated the glass, out-rebounding Brandon-Evansville 36-14.
"As the game went on, the physical nature just kind of wore on us and we didn't handle their half-court press very well," Simpson said. "It was mostly inside stuff. The second half, they just got all kinds of shots inside."
The Chargers were able to be more effective defensively in their win over BBE a couple nights earlier. The Jaguars were held to 38 percent shooting (18-47). That allowed Brandon-Evansville to survive in a low scoring affair.
"We played really well defensively that night," Simpson said. "That was a good win for us. We held their post players down and got some good scoring off the bench with Elizabeth Vinson coming in and getting 11 points."
Vinson was one of two players in double figures for the Chargers. Steffenson was the other as she finished with a team-high 12. Kokett and Emily Friedrich each had eight points as well.
The loss to Underwood wrapped up a season that saw the Chargers finish 15-10 overall and 7-5 in the Little Eight Conference. They went 15-5 in their last 20 games after starting the season with a five-game losing streak against good teams in Osakis, Hancock, Parkers Prairie, Underwood and Barnesville.
"This might be one of the teams that has improved the most for me over the course of a year," Simpson said. "We kind of went into the season thinking how are we going to score? We had a rough start, but since then we've gone 15-5…I think we won the games that we had a chance to win. Our kids were really coachable and they really surprised me, improving as much as they did. They played as a team. It was really a fun year."

On the scene in Canada's Stampede City.
Every year Canada Place "goes national" and brings our Canadian Spirit booth on the road to festivals across Canada. Like many Canadians, each summer we hit the highways to discover more of our beautiful country, munch delicious roadside treats and make friends with as many Canadians and international visitors as possible.
With this year being the centennial of one of Canada's great cultural institutions, the Calgary Stampede, the Canada Place team saddled up and headed to Calgary. Given that most Stampede participants start the day with flapjacks and bacon soaked in maple syrup, this is our kind of Canadian event.
We had a great time meeting Calgarians and bringing our Inspirationally Canadian message to visitors from across Canada and around the world. The Canadian flags and maple leaf pins from Canadian Heritage were a big hit. It was especially satisfying to provide pins and flags to members of the armed forces and police and fire services.
We are very grateful to everyone that made us feel so welcome in the Stampede city. It was rewarding to speak with travelers that had been to, or were making their way to Canada Place on their cross Canadian journeys. With the brand new free attractions we have opened this summer including the War of 1812 Experience, The Digital Trail and Canada's Five Foundations why wouldn't you?
You can see more photos of our Stampede adventures at www.facebook.com/canadaplace including a surprise Plains Indians parade and some of the cutest little cowpokes you have ever seen. Check them out and leave your comments about your favorite Calgary Stampede experience. Would you like us to come to your favorite festival next year? Drop us a line at events @ canadaplace.ca.

Since 1863 when Baerensprung [1] first described naevus unius lateralis, various names and classifications have been attributed to this entity because of the relatively wide range of clinical and histological presentations. Verrucous epidermal nevi can be localized, inflammatory or systemic, associating in this last case neurological, ocular, skeletal or other developmental defects.
From a histological point of view, the linear verrucous epidermal nevus (LVEN) is characterized by orthohyperkeratosis, acanthosis and papillomatosis, and can be associated with an organoid nevus [2]. A particular form, called inflammatory linear verrucous epidermal nevus (ILVEN), has been defined as a pruritic, inflammatory, persistent lesion with histopathological features resembling psoriasis [3]. Although the evolution of both entities is benign (only one case of squamous cell carcinoma reported [4]), treatment is required for cosmetic reasons. A relatively large number of therapeutic choices are available: tretinoin and 5-fluorouracil [5, 6], acitretin [7], calcipotriol [8-11], dithranol [3], podophyllin [12], CO2 laser [13], dye laser [14], dermabrasion, cryotherapy [12]. Difficulties arise from the relatively unstable results because of a high recurrence rate of the lesions.
Five patients with ILVEN and five patients with LVEN are presented with their evolution after CO2 laser treatment.
Materials and methods
Clinical data
1. A 5-year old female patient had had an inflammatory verrucous epidermal nevus (ILVEN) since the age of 18 months. Linear erythematosquamous lesions in the inguinal fold, on the right thigh, as well as in the perigenital and perianal region were present. She had already received treatments such as calcipotriol and topical corticosteroids without significant results. 2. An 11-year old male patient had had an inflammatory verrucous linear lesion of the left arm, forearm and hand since he was 5 years old. The diagnosis of ILVEN was confirmed histologically. 3. A 14-year old female patient presented with linear hyperkeratotic papular eruptions of the left arm, shoulder and inguinal fold, which were diagnosed as LVEN. 4. A 30-year old male patient had an LVEN of the right upper and lower limbs and trunk. The lesions were congenital. Treatment with topical corticoids and keratolytics was not effective. 5. A 34-year old male patient had an ILVEN of the left inguinal fold, scrotum, upper thigh and popliteal fold. These lesions appeared at the age of 7 and presented serious discomfort to the patient, due to the pruritus and burning sensations. Acitretine treatment did not improve the symptoms. 6. The sixth patient was a 41-year old male who had had pruritic linear erythematosquamous lesions on his left leg since the age of 10. He was treated with topical corticosteroids without acceptable cosmetic results. He complained of great discomfort because of pruritus, dryness, scaling, and severe irritation. 7. A 6-year old female patient presented with an inflammatory linear verrucous epidermal nevus of the right lower limb. 8. Since she was 3 years old, a 39-year old female of phototype IV had a LVEN of the left side of the abdomen, which appeared as a linear lesion. 9. A 7-year old girl of phototype II had a LVEN on the left inferior eyelid, of only few centimetres in size. 10. A 10-year old girl of phototype III had a LVEN of the right cheek.
In all our patients there was no clinical evidence of neurological, ocular, skeletal defects or alteration of other organs. Clinical diagnosis was confirmed by a histological examination for all patients with ILVEN.
Laser therapy
Management by superpulsed CO2 laser was performed as follows: we started with a test treatment in order to appreciate the quality of healing and, in the case of satisfactory results, we continued two months later by removing the lesion in several sessions. The skin was prepared with an antiseptic such as Hexamidine or Betadine®. Wet towels were placed around the treatment field. The patient was given laser safety glasses, and stainless steel eye shields were placed under the eyelids if the eyelids were to be treated. The treatment was performed with local anaesthesia with EMLA® cream. Two children (patients no. 1 and 7) needed general anaesthesia and one week hospitalization. A Sharplan (Sharplan-ESC Medical system Ltd, Yokneam, Israël) CO2 laser of 20 watts, with a hand piece of 200 mm, was used in the "Silk Touch" modality (Sharplan Lasers, Inc., Allendale, New Jersey 07401, USA).
The carbon dioxide lasers have been limited by the tendency of the laser to leave behind a zone of coagulation necrosis around the treatment site, which measured up to 1 mm across. This often results in unacceptable scarring. The carbon dioxide laser emits light at 10,600 nm. This long infrared wavelength is strongly absorbed by water, which is the main component of skin. The laser light is absorbed within 20 µm of tissue. But with the conventional carbon dioxide laser, the surrounding tissue is also heated up through heat conduction away from the impact site. To confine the damage to the impact site, the laser energy must be delivered within a period of time short enough that the thermal conduction away from the impact is minimal. The desirable zone of thermal damage is 50 to 100 µm. This is small enough to successfully seal small dermal blood vessels and to maintain a bloodless field. To confine the thermal energy, pulse duration of approximately 1 msec is necessary, and enough energy must be delivered to completely vaporize the water in the target tissue. The "Silk Touch" laser delivery system is a microprocessor controlled miniature optomechanical flashscanner compatible with most CO2 lasers. The "Silk Touch" consists of two orthogonally vibrating mirrors and a focusing lens. Reflections of the CO2 laser optical beam from the mirrors cause the beam to deviate from its original direction by an angle: théta. The microprocessor-controlled mirrors are programmed to spatially and non linearly vary by théta, and generate a rapidly collapsing spiral curve on tissue with a constant tangential linear velocity, which gives a homogeneous vaporisation. Using this method, the beam is scanned in a spiral pattern so that any given spot of tissue is irradiated for less than 1 msec with an energy density of 5 to 15 J/cm2 or more. The effect is as if the lasers were pulsed.
In all but patients no. 1 and 7, we chose a pulsed power of 15 watts and an exposure time of 0.45 seconds. For each region of the nevi, two passages were carried out during the same session. Between the two passes, the resulting desiccated tissue debris was wiped away with saline soaked dry gauze. Additional passes were carried out over the remaining lesions to smoothen them, but with increasing risk of complications. In cases 1 and 7, the procedure was performed using only one passage of 14 watts or less pulsed power, with 0.4 seconds exposure, because of the younger age of these patients.
Post-treatment care and follow-up
During the healing process, daily applications of vaseline and antibiotic ointments (sulfadiazin argentic FLAMMAZINE®, or fucidic acid FUCIDINE®) on the treated zone were performed. Follow-up was extended to a period of 2 years. Additional sessions of CO2 laser were performed in order to eradicate the entire nevus or to treat recurrences.
Patient no. 1 showed a complete recurrence of the erythematosquamous plaques one month after the first therapy session. In this case, the procedure was discontinued and our option was to prescribe local applications of calcipotriol and betametasone.
Concerning patient no. 2, four sessions of CO2 laser were necessary in order to remove the entire lesion. Healing was achieved with a satisfactory cosmetic result (Fig. 1A, B). Only minor relapses consisting of erythematous papules were visible at the end of our observation.
Four sessions were needed for the treatment of our third patient. The healing process left a slight hyperpigmentation in this person with a skin phototype V (Fig. 2A, B).
A very good evolution was shown by the fourth patient in whom only the inguinal and axillary folds were treated.
In patient no. 5, scarring was aesthetic in the popliteal fold and on the upper thigh with a complete regression of the nevus; a few erythematous papules of 0.5 cm diameter appeared in the perigenital region for which a minor intervention was necessary. In addition, the patient experienced no further pruritus.
The sixth patient was treated only partially (Fig. 3) evolution was cosmetically satisfactory with minor desquamation of the scar and absence of pruritus.
In our seventh patient, the entire nevus was removed during one session, using a single passage. After one year, the lesion completely recurred with only a few areas of normal appearing skin.
The last two patients had entirely successfully results of the treatment, with only one passage.
Few data are available concerning the aetiology of LVEN. The skin lesions, which are typically linear, are considered as clones of cells carrying an unknown defect. Welch et al. [15] have demonstrated the similarity of ILVEN to psoriasis from a histological and immunohistochemical point of view, while Ginarte et al. [16] individualised unilateral psoriasis by involucrin immunohistochemistry. Happle et al. [17] have recently demonstrated that CHILD nevus, classified as an epidermal nevus syndrome, is in fact an X dominant defect of cholesterol biosynthesis. Molecular biology will presumably offer clues about the pathogenesis of LVEN and ILVEN.
Numerous treatments have been suggested for epidermal nevi, each shown to be unsatisfactory. The limit of medical approaches is the great rate of relapses while surgical techniques leave permanent scars. The mechanism of action of the various substances, which have been proposed to heal epidermal nevi, is not entirely understood. Calcipotriol may exert a modulation of the production and action of cytokines and of the promotion of the epidermal differentiation in the same way as in psoriasis [11]. The chemotherapeutic agent 5-fluorouracil has an antiproliferative effect by inhibition of DNA synthesis [6]. Keratolytic agents, topical steroids, tars and tretinoin may act on some pathogenetical pathways without resolving the complex epidermal and dermal defects.
The aim of the different surgical techniques is to destroy the entire lesion and if possible without cosmetic impairment. Surgical resection is the most reliable treatment for lesions having a limited surface. Treatment by 585 nm flashlamp-pumped dye laser improved the symptoms in one case reported by Alster (1994) and the result was stable for over one year follow-up [14]. Landthalter et al. (1984) successfully treated two patients with localized verrucous nevi by argon laser [18]. Using the same method, Hohenleutner and Landhaler [19] achieved very good to acceptable results in 85% of their patients with papillomatous lesions, but failed to heal 'hard' verrucous nevi. In some of these cases, CO2 laser was effective, whereas generally there was a tendency to hypertrophic scar formation. The same authors [20] report the complete removal by CO2 laser, without scarring or recurrence of a widespread epidermal nevus. Ratz et al. [21] have also used this technique, which proved to be effective in 15 patients with epidermal nevi.
We present ten patients with epidermal nevi, type LVEN and ILVEN, treated by CO2 laser. The interest of our technique is to repeat the application at low power for limiting the scarring with the CO2 laser. We preferred to perform two passages at lower energy to try to avoid scars. Both patients with verrucous epidermal nevi had a good evolution without relapses; these relatively superficial lesions responded optimally with complete regression, leaving hyperpigmented scars but no hypertrophy.
The more profound (mid dermis) inflammatory lesions of ILVEN needed a more aggressive treatment. The underlying dermis must be removed or destroyed thus enhancing the risk of suboptimal cosmetic results. In our patients, pruritus disappeared while erythema and keratosis diminished progressively after each session of CO2 laser treatment. Resulting wounds healed without complication. A 2-year follow-up showed that 3 patients with ILVEN experienced no significant recurrence in the treated areas. In two children (cases no. 1 and 7), in which lesions recurred perigenitally, perianally and on the lower limbs respectively, we used lower parameters of the laser (pulse duration less than 0.45 sec and energy density under or equal to 14 J/cm2). Also, we performed only one single passage on each area. In these two cases, we decided not to continue the procedure because of the scarring risk but also because anaesthesia might have been needed in these two young children if a more aggressive technique was chosen.

Transfer latest: Borussia Dortmund star Neven Subotic set to sign new deal
By Pete O'Rourke - Follow me: @skysportspeteo. Last Updated: December 10, 2012 4:29pm
Neven Subotic in action against Manchester City earlier this season
Sky Bet
Football Betting
Sky Sports understands Borussia Dortmund star Neven Subotic is set to disappoint a host of Premier League teams by signing a new deal at the German club.
Subotic is regarded as one of the best young defenders in Europe after impressing at Dortmund since arriving from Mainz in 2008.
The Serbia international has attracted interest from the likes of Chelsea, Manchester United, Manchester City and Arsenal after establishing himself as a key man at Dortmund.
The 23-year-old's current deal expires in 2014 and Dortmund are keen to ward off any suitors by offering fresh terms.
Dortmund are hoping to keep hold of the centre-back and talks are thought to be at an advanced stage regarding a two-year extension to keep him at the Westfalenstadion until 2016.
The news will be a major blow to Subotic's Premier League suitors with Chelsea and Manchester United linked with fresh moves for the player in January.

- Full-day private tour of the Ming Tombs and Great Wall at Mutianyu
- View the Chang Ling Tomb, Emperor Yongle's tomb from the Ming Dynasty
- Visit the Great Wall at Mutianyu and admire stunning views from the top
- Complimentary Chinese lunch
- Tour the Longdi Jade Factory

Recent Photos of this Tour
Useful Information
Enjoy a traditional Chinese lunch and visit the famous Longdi Jade Factory to see how jade is carved. Then, head to the Great Wall at Mutianyu. This towering granite wall, extending 7,381 feet (2,250 meters), was built during the Ming Dynasty (1368 to 1644) as a military alternative to the Great Wall of China at Badaling. The Mutianyu section of the Great Wall is characterized by grand military towers along the wall and is lined with green trees and flowers. Take a cable car ride to the top to get fantastic views of the Great Wall stretching into the distance.
On the way back to Beijing, stop at a local shop to view Ming Dynasty cloisonné artwork, ranging from colorful enamel bowls to intricately designed vases.
Reviewed by Cheryl, Australia, August 2012
A good day; seemed a little dear but saw nothing (trustworthy!) cheaper anywhere, not even from the hotel tour desk. Great to see the Wall. You wouldn't have time to walk up and back so the cable car is a necessary extra - 80yuan return trip and you choose cable or luge back down. We did the luge back down - and you can control the speed downhill yourself so it is fun, give it a go! Jason was our guide, very nice man and did a good job. Car and driver good. Lunch was fine with lots of dishes; the jade factory was interesting. Only disappointment is the fact that you can't actually go inside the excavated tombs, its just the above ground building with some of the relics inside. So the "underground Palace" isn't open to the public at all. A good day out, recommended.
Reviewed by Jamie M, November 2012
Our guide was just so-so. He did not go to the wall with us, instead sat in the car and waited. He did not provide much information - was more a translator for the driver of the van. We had much better luck when we hired a private guide the following day.

German teen unplugs pensioner's 'noisy' life support machine
Can I have the machine that goes ZZZZ
Posted in Science, 19th June 2007 11:32 GMT
Free whitepaper – Hands on with Hyper-V 3.0 and virtual machine movement
Police in Southern Germany are quizzing a 17-year-old car crash victim who turned off a fellow hospital patient's life-support machine because it was keeping him awake.
Frederik Moelner wound up in intensive care recovering from the accident, reports Ananova, but his attempts to have a bit of recuperative kip were stymied by the noisy life support machine keeping the 76-year-old in the neighbouring bed breathing.
Rather than take a sedative, the 17-year-old took matters into his own hands, pulling the plug on the offending piece of medical technology, thus ensuring shut-eye himself and, potentially, the big sleep for his unfortunate neighbour.
Luckily medical staff quickly realised what had happened, and reconnected the lucky pensioner. They then connected the sleep deprived 17-year-old with the local police.
Sadly, it is not clear whether the machine in question was one that went bing. ®

Juggling boosts the connections between different parts of the brain by tweaking the architecture of the brain's "white matter" – a finding that could lead to new therapies for people with brain injuries.
White matter describes all areas of the brain that contain mostly axons – outgrowths of nerve cells that connect different cells. It might be expected that learning a new, complex task such as juggling should strengthen these connections, but previous work looking for changes in the brains of people who had learned how to juggle had only studied increases in grey matter, which contains the nerve cells' bodies.
Now Jan Scholz and his colleagues at the University of Oxford have discovered that juggling changes white matter, too. They gave 24 young men and women training packs for juggling and had them practise for half an hour a day for six weeks. Before and after this training period, the researchers scanned the brains of the jugglers along with those of 24 people who didn't do any juggling, using a technique called diffusion tensor imaging that reveals the structure of white matter.
They found that there was no change in the brains of the non-jugglers, but the jugglers grew more white matter in a part of the parietal lobe – an area involved in connecting what we see to how we move.
The same transformation was seen in all the jugglers, regardless of how well they could perform. This suggests that it's the learning process itself that is important for brain development, not how good you are.
Learning matters
Arne May of the University Medical Centre Hamburg-Eppendorf in Germany, who led the previous work on juggling and grey matter, finds this result "fascinating". "It suggests that learning a skill is more important than exercising what you are good at already – the brain wants to be puzzled and learn something new," he says.
Like May, Scholz's group found increases in grey matter, but differences in the size and timing of the grey- and white-matter changes suggest they are independent. Nevertheless, both are probably necessary to learn how to juggle, argues Scholz.
"More white matter on its own might mean you can move more quickly, but you'd need the grey matter to make sure your hands were in the right place," he says.
Don't use it, don't lose it
The group scanned the jugglers' brains again after four weeks without juggling. They found that the new white matter had stayed put and the amount of grey matter had even increased. This could be why, when we learn a new skill, we retain some ability, no matter how long ago we last practised.
"It's like riding a bike," Scholz says. "Either you can juggle or you can't. It takes a lot of training to learn, but once it clicks, you don't forget it."
Scholz also hopes that it might be possible to develop juggling-based training programmes to help people with brain injuries, or that further study of how juggling changes the architecture of the brain may lead to the discovery of drugs that could boost this plasticity. "If we could use training or drugs to help stroke patients regenerate damaged parts of their brains, that would be fantastic," he says.

Wonder if the brains are similar to those who are ambidextrous, as you are using/connnecting both sides of the brain.
Sun Oct 11 18:32:40 BST 2009 by mikfrak
Isn't this simply stating the obvious? Unless you believe that human consiousness if somehow a disemodied entity or soul and the brain is simply a cockpit through which it drives our bodies, it is obvious that everything we learn or experience is physically embodied in the structure of the brain and its internal wiring, whether it is juggling or neuroscience. I often think that this is why some mental illnesses are so resistant to any meaningful cure
Sun Oct 11 19:51:49 BST 2009 by Rich
Yes, it does seem obvious...
"jugglers grew more white matter in a part of the parietal lobe - an area involved in connecting what we see to how we move."
Well duh!
OK it's a bit obvious what to expect, but it is still important to research and document things as evidence or verification.
Mon Oct 12 10:05:58 BST 2009 by Oji
OK. So no more research needed: they can just come and ask you guys what the results will be. We clearly wasted all that money building the LHC, they could have just asked the readers of NS what the "obvious" results would be.
Yes, it is important to experiment on the "obvious" to verify it - or even discover it in the first place. Or even prove that what is "obviously" true isn't.
You might also learn something new from researching the "obvious".
"They found that the new white matter had stayed put and the amount of grey matter had even increased"
Was that also "obvious" to you?
Tue Oct 13 02:48:25 BST 2009 by PM
I'd say prooving that it causes growth of brain matter rather than just increasing blood flow to the related region or altering existing tissue, is a worth while experiment.
What's The Benefit?
Sun Oct 11 21:51:07 BST 2009 by S
The question is, do the new networks provide any benefits, apart from developing the entertaining but relatively useless skill of juggling?
What's The Benefit?
Mon Oct 12 02:34:01 BST 2009 by Mediocrates
The benefit is equally simple: increased connections in the white matter of the parietal lobe, which guides how we move in relation to our visual input.
So by studying how the brain does that, and how things like juggling produce this effect, doctors can improve treatment and physio care for their patients suffering from problems in that area.
Here's a new skill to learn: reading.
What's The Benefit?
Mon Oct 12 04:06:04 BST 2009 by jim
im not sure even physiotherapists are cruel enough to make brain damaged people try to juggle
its more that this research points future research efforts toward ways of creating new connections in the brain
What's The Benefit?
Mon Oct 12 09:30:09 BST 2009 by Mike Chalkley
At school I couldn't catch, throw etc. I suffer from being born late in the school year & had to compete in physical sport against kids a whole year older. I grew up thinking I was just not 'sporty'.
Since learning to juggle over 2 decades ago I learned that I was perfectly capable of turning my hand to anything I chose to. I reckon I could now slip-field a game of cricket quite well!
I also now have a pretty hunky pair of shoulders!
In and of itself, juggling is purely entertainment or pastime. Used properly it can be theraputic for in so many conditions.

Fashion has been a major part of my life since I can remember. Nearly every day of my childhood was spent playing dress up with my older sister. We would drape ourselves in my mother's '70s dresses and strap on her gold disco heels. I couldn't wait until I was old enough to wear glamorous pieces like the ones in my costume closet.
While growing up in a small town in South Carolina, I had a hard time expressing myself through fashion outside of my bedroom. I was so passionate about it, but I was afraid to let my personal style show. Towards the end of high school, I finally started to figure out who I was. Slowly but surely I began dressing the way that I wanted instead of copying my classmates. I stopped shopping at the mall and starting scouring the thrift store racks for unique pieces that would help me express my individuality. This newfound love for recycled clothing really brought out my artistic side and allowed me to use thrifting as a creative outlet.
I can definitely say that my friends are some of my biggest style icons. When I started college at Belmont University, I discovered that Nashville's underground music scene, sometimes referred to as "Nashville's Dead," is full of amazingly fashionable people who all have their own senses of style. Everyone has his or her own variation of '80s new wave mixed with '90s grunge. It's interesting to me how the music people listen to can influence the way that they dress so dramatically.
When getting dressed in the morning, I always put on a dress or a skirt. You can ask my friends — none of them have ever seen me in pants. Even though most of my wardrobe comes from thrift stores, I occasionally shop at a designer warehouse outlet in Nashville that I have adopted many pairs of shoes from including some killer Dries Van Noten's and some gorgeous black patent Givenchy's. I am a grunge girl at heart but don't be deceived — I know my way around the fashion biz.
I am so excited to be a Style Guru for CollegeFashionista this summer and I can't wait to share Belmont University's Fashionistas/os with the readers!

"Grilled pineapple, ginger, and Asian five-spice lend an almost Hawaiian quality to these delicious burgers topped with gouda cheese. They use turkey as an alternative to ground beef." - by Minnow
Adjust Servings
Original recipe yields 4 burgers
- Whisk together the bread crumbs, egg white, onion, soy sauce, minced ginger, five-spice powder, ground ginger, and pepper in a large bowl. Mix in turkey until just combined. Shape turkey mixture into four patties.
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
- Cook on the preheated grill until the patties are no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes per side for well done. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Place a slice of gouda cheese on each patty; continue grilling until cheese has melted, about 1 minute. While the turkey patties are cooking, place the pineapple rings on the grill until softened, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
- Assemble the burgers by placing a turkey patty on half of an onion roll, then top with the grilled pineapple. Divide the spinach leaves evenly among the burgers, then top with the other half of the onion roll.

Rate This Recipe"These burgers are amazing. I omitted the fresh ginger (since I didn't have any) and added a little extra ground ginger. They're so delicious. My husband and daughter are extremely picky and they asked..." See more me to make these again."
"These were AWESOME!! The only change I made was to use a little extra 5-Spice Powder, and these were so amazingly fantastic that my husband immediately asked when we would be having them again. I'm ..." See morenot normally a fan of turkey burgers, and even I was wolfing mine down! I cooked these on my George Foreman grill for 6 minutes, which was perfect, and served them on home-made onion buns with goat's milk gouda. My only complaint was that I couldn't really taste the pineapple (probably due to using canned instead of fresh). Next time, I will likely omit it and replace is with a dollop of a tangy barbeque sauce we like. Really fantastic recipe!!! ******Okay, it's now "next time!" This time, I added a little more 5-spice powder, replaced the gouda with smoked mozzarella (it's what I had) and made sure to use fresh pineapple instead of canned, and oh WOW, what a difference! The hubby and I agreed immediately that the fresh pineapple takes this to a whole another level."
"These were absolutely delicious!!! I omitted the ground ginger and must used more fresh and I forgot to put the fresh spinach leaves on it - but the end result was incredible served with garlic mayo...." See more I should note that I used ground chicken instead of ground turkey - we will definitely make these again! EDIT - I made these again and used ground turkey - the end result was still very good. This is easily my favorite turkey burger recipe!"

Event Information :Annapurna base camp trek is famous for trekkers. The principal peaks of the western portion of the great Annapurna Himal, including Hiunchuli, Annapurna South, Fang, Annapurna, Ganagapurna, Annapurna 3 and Machhapuchhare, are arranged almost precisely in a circle about 10 miles in diameter with a deep glacier-covered amphitheater at the center. From this glacier basin, known as the Annapurna Sanctuary, the Modi Khola knifes its way south in a narrow gorge fully 12,000 ft. deep. Further south, the gorge opens up into a wide and fertile valley, the domain of the Gurungs. The middle and upper portions of Modi Khola offer some of the best short trekking routes in Nepal, and the valley is located so that these treks can be easily combined with treks into the Kali Gandaki region to the west.
In spite of the great heights of the surrounding peaks and ice walls, the valley floor between 12,000 and 14,000 ft. can provide comfortable camping spots in good weather.

| Inside Technique : Targeted Drag and Drop : Setting up the Drag Now that we've looked at a quick-n-cheap drag and drop simulation, it's time to look at the real thing. The Top 5 demo on the first page uses images, but you can adapt this technique to drag HTML instead, by using DIV instead of IMG tags. Let us first look at how a draggable element is defined -

 As in the previous technique, there is nothing unusual about the DIV element, except that it has been given a class name. Of course, you would set the WIDTH and HEIGHT attributes of the IMG to fit your images. It is important that all IMGs have the same WIDTH and HEIGHT. Repeat this declaration for each DIV you want to make draggable. Finally add an absolutely positioned DIV to your page like this -

 This floating DIV is the only moving element in the page, the rest of the DIVs are not absolutely positioned, and therefore cannot be moved. Also notice that the IMG inside the DIV is given a SRC, even though it is initially invisible. This is because of a bug in IE4 that prevents dynamically setting the SRC of an IMG if the original SRC is not specified. Coming to the code, the event capturing part is standard - document.onmousedown=DragStart; document.onmouseup=DragEnd; document.onmousemove=DoDrag; The fun starts in the mousedown handler. The code goes like this - function DragStart(){ el=event.srcElement; if(el.parentElement.className=='dnd'){ DragEl=el; InitLeft=event.clientX; InitTop=event.clientY; InitElTop=getRealPos(el,"Top"); InitElLeft=getRealPos(el,"Left"); floater.style.pixelTop=InitElTop; floater.style.pixelLeft=InitElLeft; floater.children[0].src=el.src; el.src='trans.gif'; floater.style.visibility='visible'; } } After first checking if the element that the user clicked on is in fact draggable, the function stores the values of the event's clientX and clientY (the click co-ordinates in pixels). Then it calculates the co-ordinates of the clicked element relative to the start of the document by calling the generic getRealPos function. This function has been dicussed by Scott Isaacs in his Interactive Tooltips article here on SiteExperts. So far this is standard drag and drop code. The function then positions the floating DIV exactly over the clicked element. It sets the SRC of the floating DIV's IMG to point to the SRC of the clicked element's IMG. Then it sets the clicked elements IMG to a transparent gif, and makes the floating DIV visible. What this essentially translates into is that the user is now seeing the floating DIV, not the element that he had initially clicked. Also, it is now the floating DIV which will be dragged. The drag code is implemented by the onmouseover handler, and goes something like this - function DoDrag(){ if(DragEl){ floater.style.pixelLeft=event.clientX+InitElleft-InitLeft; floater.style.pixelTop=event.clientY+InitEltop-InitTop; return false; } } Once again, this is standard drag and drop code. The really interesting part comes in the onmouseup handler, which uses a Collision Detection algorithm to decide which element is the Drag Target. We will discuss this handler in the next section.

A Look in the Mirror
January 15, 2007
Ancient Chinese philosopher Lao-tzu once said, "He who knows others is wise; he who knows himself is enlightened." Learning to overcome one's own emotions and bias can be one of the single hardest hurdles than an investor faces. It is equally challenging to discern between advice and noise by "experts" in any given field. Today's Outside the Box is written by my good friends Mark and Jonathan Finn where they address some of the psychological difficulties confronted by investors.
For those of you unfamiliar with this father son tandem, Mark (father) and Jonathan (son) run Vantage Consulting. Mark was the former chairman of the Virginia Retirement System and has a distinguished academic career. He consults with large pension funds and high net worth investors, as well as sits on the board of several large mutual fund families. Jonathan is well-known for his research on the topic of past performance and is a chartered financial analyst. In their article "A Look in the Mirror," they take a look at systematic errors in the investment field and how to deal with them.
We all have something to learn from looking introspectively in our decision making efforts. I hope you find this piece to be both enlightening and "outside the box."

A (special needs) Father
June 16, 2013 in Celebrations, Featured, From Julia by Julia Roberts
We're sons, brothers, husbands and friends.
We're strong, we're fragile. We're comforters, we're providers.
Some of us are primary caregivers in the world of our kids with special needs. Some of us are supporters of the primary caregivers; we make it possible for the primary caregiver to give all they have to our unique kids.
We're income and insurance providers. We're silent worriers. We're gifted at building up confidence in our kids and shouldering all the pain for milestones never achieved.
Some of us research and reach out about our kids' conditions, some of us reach in and burrow down and get done what we must. Some of us have few friends who know the truth about what it is like to live in a world of special needs parenting, especially as a dad. Some have few friends on purpose and some based on circumstance of our life.
Some of us are accepting of what life has handed us. Some are not. It's a good day when we realize that each path in special needs fathering is right when a father is present to witness the good and the bad.
We hurt for our kids and we wish for what all parents do; for happiness, acceptance, and a competitive nature in our kids. For a beaming self-confidence.
We wish for them to live without emotional pain and physical pain yet we gladly make ourselves present for our kids and those we love to help ease it.
We know our relationship with our kids shapes their lives, as any father, but we know it also has a greater impact to all around us because it takes greater effort and engagement.
It is simple. We wish to help our kids be happy. We wish for them to go out in the world and be loved unconditionally. Just like any father.

Eric's Eagle project involved painting distance markers every quarter mile along the Marsh Creek Trail between Oakley and Brentwood. Working with the East Bay Regional Park District and Friends of Marsh Creek, Eric coordinated his fellow scouts and other volunteers in marking the trail in both directions. One group started in Brentwood and walked to Oakley, the other group began in Oakley and finished in Brentwood.
Eric is a junior at Freedom High School and the son of Jeff and Kathy Lim, who are very proud of his accomplishment of earning scouting's highest rank.

In a retrospective cohort study, Kahn and colleagues examined temporal trends in long-term acute care hospital utilization and patient survival after an episode of critical illness among Medicare beneficiaries hospitalized from 1997 to 2006. Among the authors' findings was that the number of acute care hospitals doubled and the number of long-term acute care admissions tripled in the 10-year study period and that 1-year mortality after long-term acute care hospital admission was 52.2% in the years 2004-2006.
Sánchez García and colleagues Article report characteristics of an outbreak of linezolid-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (LRSA) in an intensive care department in Madrid, Spain. Twelve patients with LRSA were identified; 6 patients died, and 1 death was attributed to LRSA infection. Genotyping identified the same LRSA clone in 11 of the patients, and linezolid resistance was determined to be cfr gene mediated. Reduced linezolid use and infection control strategies facilitated rapid control of the outbreak. In an editorial, Gaynes Article discusses the necessity of appropriate antibiotic use to preserve antibiotic effectiveness.
Youth ice hockey has one of the highest injury rates among participants in Canada. In a prospective cohort study involving 11- and 12-year-old ice hockey players, Emery and colleagues assessed the risks of injury and concussion when league rules allow or do not allow body checking. The authors found a 3-fold increased risk of all game-related injuries and of injury categories—concussion, severe injury, and severe concussion—among youth ice hockey players in a league that allowed body checking compared with players in a league in which body checking was not allowed.
Ambulatory surgery has been an area of recent growth, but little is known about infection control practices in ambulatory surgery centers. In an analysis of data from an infection control audit, piloted by Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, that involved 68 ambulatory surgery centers, Schaefer and colleagues Article found that lapses in infection control were common in the 5 categories assessed—hand hygiene, injection and medication safety, equipment reprocessing, environmental cleaning, and handling of blood glucose monitoring equipment. In an editorial, Barie Article discusses the need to address infection risks in ambulatory surgery centers.
In a systematic review of the literature, Runchey and McGee assessed the diagnostic accuracy of clinical examination in distinguishing hemorrhagic stroke from ischemic stroke. The authors found that certain findings increase the probability of hemorrhagic stroke (eg, coma, neck stiffness, seizures) and other findings decrease the probability (eg, cervical bruit, prior ischemic stroke). However, no finding or combination of findings was definitively diagnostic and diagnostic certainty requires neuroimaging.
