Help Us Rescue Babies in Haiti
Four million babies die each year in the first month of life. Half of these babies die in the first 24 hours of life. And in the aftermath of last month's earthquake in Haiti, the risks for babies and toddlers throughout the country have increased.
As the government focuses on the immediate and critical needs…
A Time Such as This
I hit a point several weeks ago where I didn't think I could handle seeing one more thing or reading one more article about Haiti. I needed some distance and recuperating time, which is a good thing. But despite the time of stress and trauma, there is one thing we must keep doing:
"And pray…
While we continue delivering food and supply kits to our church partners for the immediate relief of the families they serve, we are beginning to shift our focus from short-term relief to longer-term solutions.
One possible component of a larger strategic approach includes working with other organizations in Haiti to implement income-generating activities for those who…
Helping Haiti: Our Food Kit Distribution Process
We continue to procure and deliver relief supplies through our staging area in Florida and our two supply warehouses in Haiti. We estimate that 1,000 emergency relief food kits are arriving in Haiti daily, some of which are donated by church partners in the Dominican Republic.
Food kits are put together in the Dominican Republic…
Clean Water for Haiti
The critical need the poor always have for water has been heightened in Haiti after the earthquake. We've used various ways to distribute water to our church partners, and we're looking to our strategic partnerships to continue to meet the short- and long-term needs.
We have a long-standing relationship with Healing Waters International, providing water…

Life in Haiti After the Earthquake: Carrying On
Received from Scott Todd, our Senior Ministry Advisor, who is leading our medical team in Port-au-Prince.
I'm in my tent. Too tired to go up to the place where I can connect to Internet on the sloping desk and wobbly chair in the parking lot – so I know this won't go out tonight.
Today (Jan.…

Thanking God for OurCompassion
It was the middle of the night, but something was bothering me so I stayed up. Now I'm sitting here in tears. CNN just announced that the search and rescue efforts in Haiti are over.
I guess when I started sponsoring and ended up at OurCompassion, it was no accident. I know most other organizations…
Looking Past Haiti's Short-Term Needs
"First, I ask God to forgive me for my sins."
That's the answer 12-year old Robinson gave me when I asked him what he's praying for this week.
It might sound like a sweet prayer from a 12-year old, until you realize that Robinson is living with his family in a tent city in Port-au-Prince,…
It's Not Natural
It's not natural. It's not even remotely right. No mother should have to bury her child.
But Melicia is begging for the chance to do just that.
Her family was at home when the earthquake hit Port-au-Prince. In a panic, she gathered her children and rushed them toward the door. But her six-year old son…

Where everyone has a voice
Published: Feb. 7, 2011
Updated: Aug. 4, 2011
If you work in a call center, your job depends on your voice, and you are considered an occupational voice user.
Your voice is the only tool you have to convey your company's message.
Whether your call center is in retail, finance, technical support, bill collecting, or you schedule appointments in health care, your voice is your only link with the customer.
In this environment, a healthy, pleasing voice is critical for building trust with customers.
Just as neat professional attire is essential for face-to-face interactions with clients, successful phone interactions depend on the clarity of the voice.
A hoarse voice from a call center agent (CCA) carries the same negative impression as a worn-out suit, and can detract from building credibility and trust with clients.
So a healthy voice is crucial, but because you are talking on the phone nearly 40 hours a week, you are at risk for damaging your voice and developing hoarseness. A 2002 study on voice problems among CCAs reported voice problems in 31 percent of CCAs, with several negative outcomes, including:
Overall, CCAs with voice problems were less enthusiastic about selling the product. Voice problems are bad for CCAs, and they are bad for business.
Voice scientists now think of voice problems in CCAs as a form of repetitive motion injury, because the vocal folds are being injured by overuse, similar to the way data entry personnel may develop carpal tunnel syndrome.
When we talk, the vocal folds are vibrating about 200 times a second for women and about half that for men. That can add up to more than a million cycles of vibration during a work day at a call center.
Multiply that by five days a week, and this kind of repetitive motion causes excessive impact on the tissues of the vocal folds and can lead to vocal injury.
Taking frequent breaks from repetitive motion (in this case, vocal fold vibration) is a key to avoiding a voice injury. Voice scientists advise CCAs to think of voice pacing on three levels:
In a typical phone call, there are quick breath pauses between sentences, and longer pauses when we listen to the client speaking. Voice scientists tell us that even those very short breaks are important, since the vocal folds take a "micro break" from vibrating.
For CCAs, building in frequent "micro breaks" during the phone call is essential. This means that phone scripts for CCAs should be written as dialogues rather than monologues, taking advantage of pauses for client response to give the CCAs a mini break.
In addition, any script that is frequently repeated word-for-word by the CCA should be pre-recorded if possible, again allowing a brief voice break during the call.
Between phone calls, CCAs also need to find time for longer breaks of being silent, and switching to a work task that doesn't require talking.
A good rule of thumb is to take a five-minute break every hour away from phone use. And don't forget your regular shift breaks, which are ideal times to rest your voice.
These longer breaks are even more important if you are not able to structure your phone calls to include "micro breaks."
Finally, your time off between work days is crucial for getting longer rest breaks for your voice. CCAs may need to limit extra voice use outside of work (during the voice recovery period).
If your voice is tired after a day of work, you may risk injury if you yell at a sports event, talk loudly at a party, or sing at the church choir rehearsal -- all activities involving more vocal-fold vibration.
Besides vocal pacing, CCAs must also practice good voice hygiene. These strategies help keep the throat moist and free from irritation, so the vocal folds are less likely to be injured:
Learn more about vocal hygiene and common voice disorders.
The call center work environment should support healthy voice habits for CCAs. Any environmental factor that causes you to raise your voice is detrimental, since the vocal folds vibrate together with even greater force when you use a louder voice.
Loud voice use can lead to injury more quickly. Monitor your vocal loudness, and turn down the volume on your voice whenever possible.
Tips to manage vocal loudness:
Don't wait until you have lost your voice to seek medical help.
Pay attention to subtle signs that your voice is getting tired -- dry throat, raw or tired feeling in the throat, increased mucus in the throat, feeling like talking takes more effort, feeling throat strain -- in addition to a raspy or hoarse voice.
If you notice voice fatigue or hoarseness, you should have a voice evaluation with a laryngologist (ENT doctor who specializes in voice) and voice-trained speech-language pathologist (SLP), who can provide a diagnosis and a plan to help you get your voice back.
Make an appointment with one of our ENTs or SLPs.
This team of vocal health experts will help you achieve optimal management of medical, environmental and vocal use factors relative to your voice problem.
Often, resolution of the voice problem involves working with a trained voice therapist (SLP) to show you how to use your voice in the most relaxed, efficient, healthy manner to recover from injury and avoid injury in the future.

AnonymousSeattle WashingtonWhat On Earth Has Happened To My Favorite Steam System?Ive been using Caruso since high school....(10 years ago) and have always adored it! The comments are endless everytime I curl my hair...until now. The new steamer is awful! My curls are limp lifeless waves....what gives?I wish someone could help me figure this out...is it the new rollers or the steamer itself? Gosh...it seems like the company is really trying to save a buck...isnt it enough that they use third world labor?....they have to make a bad product too?

PatHouston, TexasCaruso Steam Hair RollersI have used this product ever since it came on the market. I dont know why I cant find the sets in retail stores now, but I love the product and have to replace a set every few years - and the service from Folica is always great and the product is always in stock.posted Oct 27, 2005Link to this post
TracyPonce De Leon, FloridaCaruso RollersI have had the average heated rollers all my life, but nothing compares to the Caruso rollers. My hair is shoulder length and very fine, with other rollers within 2 hours the curl was all gone. With the Caruso rollers the curl last for days, even with my hair type. The rollers heat up in seconds. I would highly recommended this rollers to anyone who wants to add body to there hair as well as keeping your hair healthy.posted Oct 21, 2005Link to this post
Claire DareMinneapolis, MNDoes A Great Job!My customer service experience was exemplary. The representative was extremely helpful and patient. I had used the salt Caruso curlers years ago (bought them because I thought it was a hoot that a bald man could design great hair curlers for women). They still work great and I love not having to take the salt. The only reason I didnt give an "Excellent" is because although the steamer is travel size, the curlers are very cumbersome and take up a lot of room (although I dont know how youd get around that). LOVE that they dont fry my hair.posted Sep 7, 2005Link to this post
DelanahTallahassee FloridaLong Time Caruso UserI love the Caruso hairsetter. I have thin baby-fine straight as a string hair! The Caruso does an excellent job of adding body and lovely curls to my hair that hold up all day long. Here are a few tips from someone that has been using this product for a very long time. Use hairspray to set your style, the curls will hold and stay fresh much longer. If your sponges are wearing out, dont go to the expense of buying new rollers, the ends come off of the Caruso roller, buy the regular sponge curlers in a similar size and replace with those. Use a styling product to help to lock in your curls. Clean your unit periodically with a water and vinegar mixture to disolve buildup that can cause your unit to not work as efficiently or overheat and burn out.posted Aug 27, 2005Link to this post
HollyIllinoisYeee-haaa, I Love This Thing!!!!!I bought my first Caruso traveler system at a hair show in Chicago, IL in 1991 and had used it all the time since then. Most recently, I hadnt used it for more than a year and decided it was time to try it again. Well, Im happy to say, my system stood the test of time, but alas, it did breakdown and finally die.I loved how the rollers left my hair healthy looking instead of dry and brittle with the conventional hot rollers. So I decided to order a new one. Im so impressed with the improvements on a FANTASTIC product. Especially noting that you dont have to use salt anymore to get the steam going. Thanks Caruso for this much needed improvement. Now I can just pick them up and go without having to lug the right amount of salt around! Now I need to add more rollers to the ones I received, as my original ones are broken down and torn.posted Aug 18, 2005Link to this post

EvelynPittsburgh, PAOld Version Is Way Better Than New VersionI absolutely fell in love with the Caruso curlers when I got them back in college.(Im 32 now) I used it for YEARS!!!! But when the steamer finally bit the dust I just had to buy a new one. I have had the newer unit for about a year. (This newer steamer is the version that does not require salt.) Much to my dismay I am without a steamer again. It production of steam just diminished. I dont think it is as well made as the older steamers. I have to say that the product works very well with my fine hair and keeps the curl in my hair even overnight when I do my hair in the morning. Im just not impressed with the newer version of the steamer.posted Jul 11, 2005Link to this post
JannI Cant Be Without My Steamer!I bought my first Caruso years ago on the shopping channel. I loved it and it lasted years. I travelled with it and used it every single day. When it finally died I was distraught...................I couldnt find it anywhere. I burned my head many times with electric rollers and the curl would not stay in as well as the Caruso.My son found this website and ordered a new one for me and I am thrilled. I am going to order another one as backup as I can never be without it again.posted Jun 4, 2005Link to this post

Elizabeth, n.J., bank employee charged with conspiracy to commit bank robbery
January 26, 2012 |
NEWARK, N.J. – A TD Bank employee from Elizabeth, N.J., was arrested today on charges he conspired to commit bank robbery, U.S. Attorney Paul J. Fishman announced.
Jelani Bustamonte, 23, who works at the Westfield, N.J., branch of TD Bank, was arrested by FBI agents at his home in Elizabeth this morning. He was charged yesterday in a Complaint with conspiring to commit bank robbery and made his initial appearance before U.S. Magistrate Judge Cathy L. Waldor today in Newark federal court.
According to the Complaint:
At 2:21 p.m. on Sept. 11, 2011, an individual entered the TD Bank located at 560 North Avenue East, Westfield, and passed a deposit slip across the counter to a bank teller. The bank teller, who was in the process of counting cash at the counter, did not see the handwriting on the note or any monetary amount listed, and attempted to return the slip back to the person. The individual pushed the paper slip back across the counter and ordered the teller to "read it." The teller read the handwritten note, which stated, "I want all the money lo[o]se bills."
The teller stepped back upon reading the demand note. The bank robber then reached over the counter, took the cash that the teller had been counting at the counter. The bank's video surveillance camera recorded the entire incident and captured images of the bank robber.
Between September and December 2011, seven additional bank robberies occurred at TD Bank locations throughout New Jersey. On Dec. 28, 2011, a suspect in the TD Westfield location was charged with the robbery of the Rahway branch of TD Bank on Nov. 19, 2011.
According to the investigation, the alleged bank robber exchanged text messages in November and December 2011 with Bustamonte. In these text messages, the two discussed when and how the vault of the Westfield branch could be robbed. Bustamonte gave the bank robber information about the amount of money inside the vault, when the vault would be replenished and/or filled, that certain employees possessed the codes necessary to open the vault, the protocol for opening the vault, and the time of day when the vault would be opened. The bank robber also asked Bustamonte whether he had access to a BB gun.
Bustamonte told law enforcement he discussed robbing the vault with the alleged bank robber and others. He said he advised the bank robber to go with one other person to rob the vault, and that the robber agreed to give Bustamonte up to $50,000 of the money from the vault. Bustamonte said he discussed with the robber the layout of the Westfield branch, and other information, including that he should ask for "loose bills" and not strapped money. He also said he was working at the bank the day it was robbed and recognized the bank robber, but did not disclose his identity to bank personnel or law enforcement.
The charge of criminal conspiracy carries a maximum potential penalty of five years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000.
U.S. Attorney Fishman credited special agents of FBI, under the direction of Special Agent in Charge Michael B. Ward; the Union County Prosecutor's Office under the direction of Prosecutor Theodore J. Romankow; and the Westfield Police Department, under the direction of Chief John Parizeau, with the investigation leading to the arrest.
The government is represented by Assistant U.S. Attorney Jane H. Yoon in Newark.
The charge and allegations contained in the Complaint are merely accusations and the defendant is considered innocent unless and until proven guilty.
Anyone who had information which may be relevant to this case is encouraged to contact the Newark Division of the FBI at 973-792-3000.
Defense counsel: Bruce S. Rosen Esq., Florham Park, NJ

ISTANBUL, Jan 29 (Reuters) - Turkey's telecoms watchdog said on Tuesday it would have to approve any change in control of Turkcell, the country's biggest mobile phone operator, a day ahead of a British court ruling which could leave the firm with no major Turkish shareholder.
Britain's Privy Council is due to rule on Wednesday in a long-running battle Turkey's Cukurova holding company and Altimo, the telecoms arm of Russia's Alfa Group, which could be awarded Cukurova's 13.8 percent Turkcell stake.

Froze up distributor
Anyone know a good way to unstick a stuck distributor shaft. I have a '78 Bronco with a 351m, galvantic corrosion has siezed up the shaft. I've tried penetrating oil, a pair of channel locks, etc. The only thing i havent tried yet is getting out the torch and heating up the block.
Thanks. ...yes i did loosen the hold down screw! |

is the shaft stuck, or the whole housing in the block (pretty common on 351m)? ive gotten a couple of them free by chiseling a small V out of the flange (where it meets the block) then using a punch or drift try to spin the housing. i havent tried to use a air hammer, it might work well too.

When it comes to muscle cars there are both good noises and bad noises. Follow along as we treat our 1971 Nova – Project Swinger – to a full regimen of Dynamat Xtreme using their pre-cut Custom Cut kits to keep vibrations and resonance out, while letting us better hear all the sounds we do want to hear.
Less Noisy Nova: Project Swinger Gets Dynamat Xtreme Custom Cut Kit
by Clifton Klaverweiden on August 1, 2013
In this installment of Project Swinger, we're looking at buttoning the beast up and focusing on the details. Follow along as we replace the glass and brightwork on our long-term Project Swinger '71 Nova, courtesy of Classic Industries.
Project Swinger had been pushed around the shop enough, and this year it decided to push back when the LSA and Tremec 5-Speed were installed. The exterior trim, glass and interior trim are upcoming projects and we'll keep you filled in.
Project Swinger gets a custom hot set of pipes using a kit from Flowmaster, Super 44 mufflers and a cool coating from Jet-Hot Coatings. It's almost criminal to hide parts that look this good under a car.
It's pretty obvious "Swinger" is heading out as a heavy hitter. It's been a long time coming, and finally with the paint smoothed and finished, Sean Goude, our resident tech-genius could begin the laborious task of fitting Swinger with the entire powertrain setup, exhaust, and driveshaft.
Project Swinger is nearly up and running. This month we update you on its interior, more specifically, it's all digital hardware from Dakota Digital. This all-in-one unit supplies the driver with every running feature via included sensors and easy-to-read display. We've got the update here, check it out!
Project Swinger Update: Z-Best Straightens Out Swinger For Paint
by Lindsey Fisher on October 24, 2011
Wanting a professional prep job done before Swinger got painted, we turned to Z-Best Auto Body & Paint for the full treatment. Knowing that a car's paint job is only as good as the prep work done prior, Z-Best did an amazingly thorough job completing the many tasks required to get Swinger ready for her new look.
Project Swinger Update: Some Serious Classic Industries Interior
by Lindsey Fisher on October 20, 2011
We know you're waiting to see what Project Swinger looks like since she's been painted, but we aren't quite ready to let you in on that little secret. However, we do have some eye candy for you, giving you a sneak peak into what the interior of our pro-touring Nova is going to look like.
Project Swinger Update: Classic Industries' Brings Home The Chrome
by Lindsey Fisher on September 29, 2011
With the latest discussion on Swinger being the paint scheme choices, we wanted some chrome to jazz things up a bit and really get our Nova's classic look rolling. Not only were we looking for pieces to compliment the pro-touring style of the car, but also pieces that showed close attention to fine details.
When we got our '71 Nova, Project Swinger, it was in rough shape. Because of all the rust and body damage, we had to do a lot of metal work to straighten out the rough body of the car. To accomplish this, we used many tools. While the use of certain tools may be obvious for metal work, others are less evident.
Project Swinger has come full circle in a metaphorical way. From it's original glory when it rolled off the showroom floor to a dark corner of the garage waiting to be cared for, and back into the light in preparation for it's glorious return to the streets.
Before we can revel in the beauty of freshly repainted and dutifully re-straightened classic muscle car sheet metal, we need to assemble and trial fit most everything. Today's mission was simple enough: install Aeromotive's Stealth Fuel Cell, Performance EFI regulator, 100-micron fuel filter.
Here at Chevy HardCore, we've been hard at working building up a garage with enough projects to provide us with all the product testing, how-to tips, and trick new product installs to last us nearly for the entire length of 2011.
Behind every great engine is a great cooling system. Swapping an LSA engine into our '71 Nova, Project Swinger, meant upgraded its cooling system. We turned to AFCO and their bolt-in LS radiator and fan conversion kits for muscle cars.
Reassembled – although loosely – Swinger looks good on its own feet. It's been a long time since this fair-weather project has been back together and it makes us want to turn up the heat and git 'er done. We've been tinkering with the ride height, raising it an inch here, lowering it an inch there.
Right now, with her supercharged 6.2-liter CTS-V LSA plant resting between the fenderwells, we've had Swinger all but totally plumbed for the big ol' Aeromotive fuel cell, electric fuel pump, and a whole lot of steel braided line.
While we've got a bunch of irons in the fire over hear at powerTV, we were amazed at how time got away from us with our g-machine '71 Nova "Swinger." We've gone through the same sort of thing, but have made great strides since we first started.
Hey kiddies! It's been a while since we've last heard a peep out of our Pro Street/g-Machine '71 Nova nicknamed "Swinger," we know. But be not dismayed! There's all sorts of cool stuff coming down the line for our veneral classic conversion Bowtie.

After unsuccessfully taking the subframe out of Project Swinger to two different places to be sandblasted we decided to do it ourselves. And by ourselves I'm referring to me.

Encephalopathy PreventionSome encephalopathies are preventable by positive lifestyle choices and others cannot be foreseen. For example, hepatic encephalopathy from liver failure due to alcoholism may be prevented with a patient's commitment to abstinence from alcohol and use of medical care and community support to prevent or minimize the risk of relapse. Liver failure from other illnesses and congenital or accidental trauma that results in encephalopathy may not be preventable. Next Page: Must Read Articles Related to Encephalopathy

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (Oct. 28, 2003) — A long running campaign to rid hospitals and other health care facilities of medical vinyl products – endorsed by a variety of religious supporters – has dangerously overstated the risks associated with vinyl use and diverted attention from much more serious health threats, according to a new report from the Acton Institute.
The report focuses on the activities of Health Care Without Harm, a Washington-based environmental advocacy group that seeks to eliminate medical products made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastics. While there may be prudent reasons for limiting vinyl exposure to certain highly vulnerable groups, such as premature infants, the overwhelming weight of scientific evidence shows that not only are vinyl products safe, they are essential to modern healthcare.
"Secular and religious enviro-health activists have grossly exaggerated the potential problems of vinyl products," writes Doug Bandow, author of the Acton Institute report. "The campaign against PVC products is an ideological crusade rather than a campaign for public health."
Although Health Care Without Harm is pressuring the health care industry to phase out medical vinyl, there is no guarantee that it or its supporters would agree on cost-effective substitutes for PVC. Rev. Jerry Zandstra, director of programs at Acton, said that the campaign against medical vinyl – based on a very small risk – would in effect create new harms by denying patients the use of products that have proved safe in billions of treatments. What's more, he said, the ongoing, concerted effort to remove PVC products from hospitals diverts attention that should be paid to vastly greater health risks. For example, an estimated 30,000 patients die every year in the United States from medical injuries caused during hospital stays.
Rev. Zandstra appealed to the hospitals and health professionals who have supported Health Care Without Harm's anti-vinyl campaign to reconsider. "We should all be putting patients first, rather than sacrificing their care and their dignity to ideologically-driven campaigns against a phantom threat," he said.
Religious groups endorsing the Health Care Without Harm position include the General Board of Church and Society, United Methodist Church, Washington, D.C.; The Cathedral of St. John the Divine, New York, N.Y.; the Central Conference of American Rabbis, Washington; The Episcopal Diocese of Massachusetts; the Reconstructionist Rabbinical Association, Washington.
Health care organizations that have endorsed Health Care Without Harm's position on medical vinyl include Beth Israel Medical Center, New York, N.Y.; the Catholic Health Association of the United States, Washington; Cook County Bureau of Health Services, Chicago; and Kaiser Permanente, Oakland, Calif.

Every so often we come across peculiar pairings of ingredients that mesh unexpectedly well together (think: strawberries and balsamic, watermelon and feta). So when we happened upon Cate Tsahalis's recipe for kale with fresh ginger, tomatoes, and peanut butter, we kept an open mind. Thank goodness we did! No matter the occasion, this recipe is versatile and mild enough to please even the pickiest of palates. And, as it turns out, the dish reflects an African tradition of adding heft to everything from sautés to soups to beverages through the use of wallet-friendly nuts and nut butters. So, it may be unfamiliar, but it's a tried-and-true technique, not a risk.
In this creamy vegetarian main, fresh ginger is the star of the show and a great complement to the peanut butter, while the jalapeño adds a welcome heat that cuts through the richness and sweetness of the sauce. The tomatoes perk up the flavors with just the right amount of acidity.
You'll rarely feel as satisfied with your cooking as you do after you serve this dish, a seemingly exotic recipe that's made with affordable everyday staples. Discoveries like this are what get us particularly excited to embark on another year of fabulous home cooking. Happy new year, indeed!
African Kale Dish by Cate Tsahalis
Serves 4
1 large bunch kale
1 medium onion
3 cloves garlic
1 jalapeño
2 tablespoons fresh ginger
1 (28-ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 cup natural unsweetened peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 pinch salt
2 tablespoons olive oil

Kitty Brian Eno sports the cone of…not quite shame, but more general annoyance…on this lovely Caturday.
This Week In Rad (Week Ending 2010-09-26)
A random smattering of stuff I enjoyed this week.
- While sick with a wicked cold yesterday I beat both Halo: Reach and Mass Effect 2. Loved 'em both, probably teh Haloz more than ME2. But I'm psyched for ME3! And I put some quality time into Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions. All the tricksy challenges: I want to complete them!
- I probably listened to Cloud Cult's "Light Chasers" album 4 or 5 times this week. I'm diggin' it big time.
- Something just clicked for me with Anamanaguchi, as well. They need more songs so I can enjoy the 8-bit goodness to the max.
- We got a new rug in our bedroom and it's super-soft. My feets like it. Even better, the cats love it. Maybellene was rolling on it and rubbing herself all over it. Too cute for words.
- Community and 30 Rock started up again. Both season premieres were fantastic.
- We saw The Town today and it was excellent. Ben Affleck was great as both actor and director. And Jeremy Renner! I didn't even realize that was him in the movie until Elizabeth told me while we were driving home. He's gonna be so awesome as Hawkeye in Marvel Studios' The Avengers!
- The latest issue of Bendis & Romita Jr.'s AVENGERS was full of crazy and I loved it.
- This is my little guy, Brian Eno. He jumped on my lap while I was typing this. He's now purring and it's wonderful—and a bit difficult to type.
What rad stuff did you dig this week?

Definition of Marxism–Leninism in English:
Line breaks: Marxism–Leninismnoun
- The doctrines of Marx as interpreted and put into effect by Lenin in the Soviet Union and (at first) by Mao Zedong in China.More example sentences
- This article is, in essence, a critique of Marxism-Leninism and a plea for a less doctrinaire approach to both theory and practice.
- Stalin's invention of a sacral tradition of Marxism-Leninism qualified him as the only true disciple of Lenin.
- He argues that Soviet Marxism-Leninism was subject to significant adaptation under various leaders, contrary to the widespread impression that official Soviet ideology remained static after Stalin.
- More example sentences
- In the north, he promoted efforts to create a fully socialist society along Marxist-Leninist lines.
- The picture was even more complicated by the multiplication of small Marxist-Leninist, Maoist or Trotskite groupings that competed to attract mass support and draft the contours of the new faith.
- Consequently, while heavily laced with Marxist-Leninist rhetoric and Socialist propaganda, the book offers unique, often surprising insights.

Bell's Palsy MedicationsSteroids, such as prednisone (Deltasone), can reduce the duration of symptoms by decreasing the inflammation of the nerve. Doctors will often add an antiviral agent, such as acyclovir (Zovirax) or valacyclovir (Valtrex), because of a strong correlation between herpes simplex virus and Bell's palsy. If Lyme disease is possible in certain areas of the country, an antibiotic may be added, such as doxycycline. Next Page: Must Read Articles Related to Bell Palsy

SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- A Syracuse man is facing charges after he allegedly stabbed another man. It happened just before 5:30 p.m. Thursday at 201 Oxford Street. Police say James Norway, 30, stabbed Tracy Fox, 44, cutting him on his head and left arm. Norway originally fled the scene, but later turned himself in to police. He's being charged with second-degree assault and fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon.
There's no word on Fox's condition.

Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife officials rounded up and killed 3,500 Canada Geese from parks in the Puget Sound region early this summer. A coalition of animal protection groups, including PAWS, had presented government agencies with a host of nonlethal alternatives to mass killing, but the proposals fell on deaf ears. "It was incredibly frustrating," said PAWS Wildlife Advocate Stephanie Hillman. "These killings will solve nothing, because nothing has been done to address the basics reasons why the geese are here. This will happen again next year and the year after that." The Canada Goose Coalition was formed last December by PAWS, Humane Society of the United States (HSUS), and Northwest Animal Rights Network (NARN), to help educate local governmental agencies who were asking for federal permission to kill geese. In April the Coalition appeared at the Interlocal Water Management Task Force, a group comprised of the various parks departments of King County. John Haddidian, of HSUS, spoke of a successful program of nonlethal Goose management in Michigan. The program was a region-wide effort utilizing a variety of nonlethal alternatives, such as egg addling, dogs, and noise disturbances. Despite the Coalition's efforts to present successful alternatives such as those used in Michigan, the USDA Wildlife Services issued a permit to kill Puget Sound geese, normally a federally protected species. The Coalition filed an injunction in early June in federal court, but was unsuccessful. Almost immediately the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife began rounding up and killing geese. "We know for certain that they took geese from Gasworks Park in Seattle, as well as from a park at the South end of Lake Union," said Hillman. "We also know that they took them from Capitol Lake in Olympia." Coalition members suspect birds were taken from several other Puget Sound parks, but do not know for sure because government official have refused to release the locations of their round-ups. Coalition members and other animal advocates attempted to protect geese by visiting parks early in the morning and scaring away geese through noise abatement, but ultimately were not successful. "We wanted to be there to bear witness to what our government was doing," said Hillman. Hillman thinks that the goose killing was a very short-sighted solution. "This is something that they will have to continue to do year after year," said Hillman. "Without utilizing any of the tactics that will keep the birds migrating, the birds will stay settled." Hillman believes that citizens can make a difference in their local community to prevent future killing of geese. "One of the things that I would hear over and over in these (government) meetings is the parks department managers saying that people told them that they don't want to step in goose poop, and therefore 'we are just responding to what we've heard from the people.' But I think if these government and parks officials hear from animal advocates in their own communities, they probably won't be as likely to kill again."

Found this read on ESPN insiders... shows the value of players like GW/Mek - these are good foundations for our team. I think also shows why Diop could be a good addition..
"Just how important is the blocked shot? And who are the best practitioners of the art? Here's what stats wiz Roland Beech of 82games.com knows:
Why is shotblocking tied to winning?
Because it's the second-most important characteristic of strong defense. Over the previous three-plus seasons, blocked-shot percentage was a better indicator of a stingy D than turnovers forced, offensive rebounds allowed and free throws given up. Only field goal percentage allowed correlated more closely with points allowed per possession.
Josh Smith knows how to control his blocks.
This season, 63% of Smith's rejections have been turned into an Atlanta rebound. That's ahead of the league average (60%) and up six percentage points from 2005-06. And it's getting close to the top of this category's leaderboard. Among players with at least 150 blocks since 2005-06, Gerald Wallace, Pau Gasol and Andrei Kirilenko all saw 68% of their blocks end in defensive rebounds. The bottom of the list? Mark Blount (52%), Kenyon Martin (53%) and Dwyane Wade (54%).
If Josh Smith has shown us anything, it's that shotblockers can come in all shapes and styles. The Mag's Chris Broussard gives you five of them.
The Monolith
He's pretty much immobile, but top-percentile height allows him to snuff shots and change trajectories without leaving the ground. Offensive players who try to scale these walls are actually just rejecting themselves.
Examples: Yao Ming, Dikembe Mutombo, Zydrunas Ilgauskas
The Mighty Oak
With size, strength and a bit of flexibility, this guy needs no doubling help in the post, can't be moved off his spot and is able to play behind his man and still reject any attempt. And when he does, it is with authority.
Examples: Dwight Howard, Shaquille O'Neal
The Hovercraft
This species of big is lightest on his feet, capable of flying in from the weak side, redirecting offerings with impeccable timing. He's also a quick jumper who covers plenty of territory. You might get by him, but he's going to catch up.
Examples: Marcus Camby, Andris Biedrins
The Alien
Despite spending plenty of time on the perimeter, this otherworldly athlete still puts up swat stats that rival those of the biggest bigs. One former coach says it best: "There's no rhyme or reason to why they get them or where they get them. They're just freaks of nature."
Examples: Smith, Andrei Kirilenko, Dwyane Wade, LeBron James
The Bookkeeper
He's cerebral and meticulous in his preparation, keeping a mental catalog of opponents' moves. And with an uncanny ability to judge a shot, he doesn't have to leave his feet until the last second. But don't think you can overpower him. He's stronger than you.
Example: Tim Duncan
From 2005-06 through this season, teams that blocked the highest percentage of shots sported significantly higher winning percentages than more block-challenged squads.
BLK % Win %
7% or greater .5606
0-6.9% .5275
0-5.9% .443
Less than 5% .470
Blocks are good. Blocks that stay in bounds are better. Dwight Howard leads the NBA in blocks (3.3 bpg), but that's not as much of an advantage for the Magic as it could be. Over the past three-plus seasons, Howard has sent 23% of his swats out of bounds.
Player Pct. of Blocks OB
Dwyane Wade 24%
Dwight Howard 23%
Kenyon Martin 23%
LeBron James 21%
