Hi. I have noticed that concerns on high BP have several sources but there are a few regarding low BP. To add more value to this forum, I'd like to share this helpful source I recently came across. It's a free ebook about low blood pressure that was written by Christine Levy, an author I haven't heard before. Anyway, I found it really helpful and a good read as well. I hope those who have concerns on Low Blood Pressure will appreciate this. I'm not sure how long the ebook will be free though. It can be downloaded from this link:

Peninsula mothers promote lifelong benefits of breastfeeding
Published on Wed, Dec 31, 2008 by
Ashley Miller
Read More
Anna Swanberg is a woman fighting for a cause she believes in strongly.
A breastfeeding advocate and organizer of the Sequim and Port Angeles La Leche League, Swanberg is teaming up with fellow mothers and friends Susan Baritelle, owner of Dungeness Kids Company, and Wendy Schroeder, a lactation consultant through Olympic Medical Center's New Family Services program, to ensure that every woman who gives birth at Olympic Medical Center leaves the hospital with a breastfeeding-friendly diaper bag - not a formula-friendly bag.
The threesome will deliver the first batch of diaper bags to the hospital's obstetrics ward on Dec. 31 so that the first baby born in 2009 will go home with a breastfeeding-friendly bag. Each bag includes literature on breastfeeding, hand-sewn burp cloths, a magnet with breastfeeding resource phone numbers, a diaper sample, hand sanitizer, a tea sample, diaper cream, nipple ointment, nursing pads and information pamphlets including one about how fathers can help with the breastfeeding process.
The group's intention, Swanberg said, is to eliminate the formula-friendly bags distributed by name brand infant formula companies such as Similac from Olympic Medical Center.
"If they are there, they will get handed out," Swanberg said. "There are some pretty major statistics on how influential those bags are. It's a very effective form of advertising."
According the Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 2008 "Breastfeeding Report Card," 90.1 percent of babies born in Washington state are breastfed. But at 3 months of age, only 44.9 percent of babies are exclusively breastfed, a number that decreases to 21.3 percent by 6 months of age.
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that mothers breastfeed children as soon as possible after birth, usually within the first hour, and continue to breastfeed exclusively for the first six months of a child's life. Breastfeeding is recommended for at least 12 months and thereafter for as long as mutually desired.
"Any amount of breast milk, whether it's one feeding at birth or for six months exclusively, every little bit helps," Swanberg said. "But a lot of people think that if they can't breastfeed exclusively, they might as well give it up all together."
Society, Swanberg said, plays a large part in a mother's decision to breastfeed and for how long. "We do not live in a breastfeeding-friendly society," she said bluntly, describing how fabric at fabric stores features baby bottles, that a bottle is the sign for changing tables in public places and that most toy baby dolls in stores come with toy bottles. "All those little signs add up," she observed.
Parents who plan to breastfeed may tend to give up and switch to formula when breastfeeding becomes difficult if they do not have the resources or education and are provided formula in bags upon discharge from the hospital, Swanberg said.
A study published in Pediatrics magazine in 1992 showed that mothers who received a breastfeeding-friendly bag exclusively breastfed for twice as long as mothers who received a bag containing a sample of formula.
Breastfeeding benefits, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, include fewer illnesses as an infant, good jaw development, positive early attachment between mother and child, and a sense of security. Some studies suggest that children who are exclusively breastfed have slightly higher IQs than children who are formula fed, but those findings aren't concrete.
Doctors agree that commercially prepared formula brands meet nutritional needs for infants and formula-feeding advocates promote formula as convenient and flexible.
With the help of community donors, Swanberg, Baritelle and Schroeder hope to continue providing Olympic Medical Center with breastfeeding-friendly bags through the end of 2009.
"The hospital hasn't formally agreed in writing but said that if we are able to make it through 2009, that they will hear us for funding in 2010," Swanberg said optimistically.
Angie Graff, director of obstetrics at Olympic Medical Center, is working to find partial funding for 2010. "We will see what happens," Graff said. "I hope to have just one bag and I want that to be a breastfeeding-friendly bag. Handing out formula bags implies that we as health care professionals endorse formula feeding. And while it's a woman's choice to feed formula and we support that decision, I want to be able to endorse breastfeeding."
Olympic Medical Center, according to Graff, has a 95-percent initial breastfeeding rate, higher than the state and national averages.
The hospital, Graff said, used to give breastfeeding-friendly bags to mothers who expressed an interest in breastfeeding but stopped after the group organizing the bags disbanded two years ago and the supply ran out.
Baritelle, who was attending a "You and Your New Baby" class at the hospital with her son, heard about the group losing funding and disbanding and said she was sad to hear that mothers wouldn't be receiving breastfeeding-friendly bags anymore. When she opened her children's store in Sequim last August, she knew it was time to do something, Baritelle said.
Schroeder said her main focus, as a representative of New Family Services, is to provide mothers with the information necessary to make an informed choice about whether to breastfeed or formula feed. "Obviously not everybody decides to breastfeed but if you choose to breastfeed, we want to be here to help," she said. "We feel strongly that breastfeeding is critical to the health of the baby, the mother and the community. We are not by any means 'breastfeeding Nazis,' we just want mothers to have accurate information to make good choices."

FMCSA 09-09 Tuesday, September 01, 2009 Contact: Candice Tolliver Tel.: (202) 366-2309/306-4580
WASHINGTON—The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) today issued a civil penalty notice to Lehane's Bus Service, Inc. of New Castle, Delaware for alleged federal motor carrier safety violations. The $83,120 fine was the result of an investigation by FMCSA's Delaware Division into the school bus company's safety compliance record.
The FMCSA cited Lehane's Bus Service, Inc. for a number of safety violations, including:
"As school buses return to the roads in communities across the country, it is imperative that every bus company and driver operates in full compliance with federal safety regulations," said Rose A. McMurray, FMCSA Acting Deputy Administrator. "For the FMCSA and its state partners, enforcing safety standards and accessing civil penalties that keep unfit carriers and drivers off the road is critical to protecting the millions of students returning to their classrooms this school year."
The fine and citation of Lehane's Bus Service, Inc. came as a result of the FMCSA's spring passenger carrier strike force initiative, Operation Safe Student, carried out in all 50 states and U.S. territories from May 8 to May 21, 2009. The goal of the strike force was to remove unsafe buses, motor coaches and other passenger carriers and drivers from the road, and to provide states additional opportunities to conduct roadside safety inspections.
Lehane's Bus Service, Inc. will have an opportunity to contest the alleged violations and the fine.

Oil-Price Volatility Bedevils Business and Consumers
Energy prices may be partly to blame for driving the global economy into recession, but it's the uncertainty surrounding price direction that prevents a sustained recovery from taking hold, analysts say.
Indeed, since July 2008, the price of crude oil has fluctuated between a record high of $145 and $30 per barrel, hovering today at around the $100 mark.
The resulting yo-yo effect on fuel prices for the last three years has made it hard for consumers and businesses to loosen their purse strings enough to jump start the lackluster economy, says Kay Smith, head of macroeconomic analysis for the U. S. Energy Information Administration, EIA.
"There's a lot of headwind in the U.S. economy right now, but I think we're just really uncertain," says Smith . "It's the volatility of oil prices that will impact the economy more than any particular pricing point."
The same is true abroad, she notes, where the volatile cost of energy is compounding economic angst over the European debt crisis, theearthquake in Japanand social unrest in the Middle East.
And the stability the markets crave is nowhere in sight.
Chris Lafakis, an economist with Moody's Analytics, expects oil prices to hold at around $100 a barrel for the rest of the year, but expects them to rise in 2012.
"We think that oil right now is trading close to its fundamental price and we expect that price to persist for the rest of the year before rising by up to $5 per barrel in 2012," says Lafakis, cautioning that prices could climb "appreciably higher" if oil producers don't increase production and the conflict in Libya persists.
The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, OPEC, which controls 40 percent of the world's oil supply, failed to agree earlier this month to increase production quotas, a move that would have offset the short-term loss of supply from Libya and potentially driven down prices.
"At present, we're operating with 2 percent less crude oil production than we had prior to the Libyan civil war and we're reaching peak seasonal demand in Europe and the U.S. as the summer driving season begins," says Lafakis. "We're going to need some extra production out of OPEC to fill the gap that Libya has left."
The Economic Equation
Rising oil prices impact the economy on multiple fronts.
For starters, it increases the cost of production inputs, which effects energy-intensive industries like agriculture and manufacturing, especially companies that make chemicals, paper and glass.
Over time, if the cost increase cannot be passed along to consumers, businesses start laying off workers and idling plants, which reduces economic output.
Higher oil prices, of course, also drive up prices at the pump, since gasoline is a byproduct of crude oil. That increases the cost of transportation, making it more expensive for consumers to travel and businesses to ship goods (including groceries) to end-users.
"Gasoline is one of the few commodities where consumers can actually see the price changes every week so they're reminded constantly of how much a gallon of gas costs," says Smith. "Certain trigger points, such as when the price of gas reaches $4 a gallon, have a negative impact on consumer confidence."
Indeed, a number of consumer surveys — national and regional — support that, affecting both psychology and behavior.
"Once you get to $4 a gallon for gasoline it starts to amplify the effects of the rise in oil," says Lafakis.
For every $1 that oil prices rise in the U. S., he notes, gas prices rise by 2.2 cents per gallon. Thus, a $10 rise in the price of crude oil translates into a 22-cent increase in prices at the pump.
That takes a bigger toll on the economy that it might seem.
According to Lafakis, every one-cent increase in the price of a gallon of gas decreases consumption by $1.25 billion over the course of an entire year.
A $1 increase in gas prices over a 12-month period would sap $130 billion off of consumption – slightly more than the cost of the payroll tax reduction passed by Congress in late 2010.
"The economic stimulus package was a big reason why we expected the economy to perform better in 2011, but suddenly with higher fuel prices it's taken a large bite out of the recovery in the consumer sector," says Lafakis. "Consumers have less money to spend on other goods and services or to save or pay down debt so it really acts like a tax increase on the U.S. consumer."
The impact of higher oil prices in countries outside the U.S., however, many of which are struggling to keep inflation in check, could be more, according to the International Energy Agency.
The IEA's forecast calls for world oil prices to remain high, at about $110 this year, compared with $80 in 2010.
"There are real risks that a sustained $100-plus price environment will prove incompatible with the currently expected pace of economic recovery," it states in its latest monthly oil market report.
New Demand
But a prolonged period of elevated oil prices would also likely weaken demand among industrialized nations, which could help bring energy prices back down to earth.
Preliminary data suggest demand is already starting to wane.
According to the IEA, growth in world oil consumption slowed to 2.6 percent in the first quarter of 2011, compared with 4.1 percent in the last quarter of 2010.
The agency also predicts that total oil product demand in industrialized nations will fall this year by 0.5 percent, while total oil consumption in North America will fall by 194,000 barrels per day in 2011.
In contrast, oil product demand in North America rose by 609,000 barrels per day in 2010.

Tegan Jovanka
Talk1Redirected from Tegan
Tegan Jovanka | ||
Species: | Human | |
Place of origin: | Brisbane | |
First seen in: | Logopolis | |
Appearances: | see list | |
Main actor: | Janet Fielding | |
Memorable moment | ||
Tegan Jovanka was an Australian air stewardess trainee who wandered into the Fourth Doctor's TARDIS when she mistook it for a genuine police box, a mistake that left her aunt Vanessa isolated and later killed by the Master's TCE. She quickly became embroiled in the events surrounding the Doctor's regeneration and found herself a somewhat unwilling passenger of the Fifth Doctor as he failed continuously to live up to his promise of returning her to her proper time and planet. She was one of the few companions to have parted company with the Doctor only to return for a significant number of adventures.
She was joined in her travels at various times by Adric, Nyssa, Turlough, Kamelion and, briefly, the Brigadier. She played the Game of Rassilon in the Death Zone on Gallifrey, where she also met the First, Second and Third Doctors, along with Susan Foreman and Sarah Jane Smith.
Her relatively long tenure of service onboard the TARDIS belied an ambivalence about travel with the Doctor. Until her final glimpse of the TARDIS, she vacillated between wanting to stay and wanting to go.
Biography Edit
Early life Edit
Tegan was born in the city of Brisbane on 22 September 1960. (AUDIO: The Gathering) Her father was William Jovanka, (PROSE: Divided Loyalties) and her mother was the daughter of Andrew Verney. (TV: The Awakening)
She had a younger brother. She also had an uncle and aunt, Richard and Felicity, who was her Mum's sister-in-law. (PROSE: Divided Loyalties) Tegan had Serbian paternal grandparents who originally lived in Yugoslavia. They emigrated from Yugoslavia to Australia. (PROSE: Cold Fusion) Tegan's paternal aunt was Vanessa, (TV: Logopolis) and her cousin was Colin Frazer. (TV: Arc of Infinity)
In her youth, she spent time in Caloundra, north of Brisbane. (PROSE: The King of Terror)
She went to high school with Mike Bretherton, who lived next door to her in Brisbane. They were taught physics and chemistry by Miss Anderson. When she was fifteen, she broke her toe during track and gym and Mike carried her books home for her. (AUDIO: Hexagora)
Tegan went to college. (AUDIO: The Lady of Mercia)
As she wanted to see the world and broaden her horizons, she studied foreign languages and Aboriginal culture. She spent most summers travelling aboard. For instance, she visited Hong Kong in 1979. (PROSE: Cold Fusion)
During the early 1980s, her father owned a sheep farm near Brisbane. (AUDIO: The Butcher of Brisbane) By 1981, Tegan's father had dead. (PROSE: Divided Loyalties)
She moved to London to pursue a career as an air stewardess in 1981. (TV: Logopolis)
Her mother was still alive by 2006. On 22 September of that year, she telephoned her daughter to wish her a happy forty-sixth birthday. She wanted to pay Tegan a visit so they could celebrate together, but Tegan claimed she was too busy with work to fit her mother into her plans. She told her she was going to have a few drinks with her friends from work instead. (AUDIO: The Gathering)
Travels with the Doctor Edit
On 28 February 1981, Tegan's aunt Vanessa drove her to Heathrow Airport for her first day as an air stewardess. The car broke down in the London Borough of Barnet. Seeing what she thought was a police box, Tegan tried to call for help. Instead, she entered the huge interior of the Doctor's TARDIS. Astounded by the console room like others before her, she ventured into its depths. The Fourth Doctor and Adric, not knowing she was on board, dematerialised for Logopolis to have the Logopolitans perform the complex calculations to restore functionality to the TARDIS' chameleon circuit.
The TARDIS crew discovered they had an accidental passenger. However, returning her to her rightful time and place was a secondary concern. The Doctor grew aware the Master was trying to create instability in the universe by manipulating Logopolis. Tegan became embroiled in the Doctor's cause once she learned the Master had in the meantime killed her aunt. Stranded on a crumbling Logopolis with the Doctor, she became one of the few companions to travel in the Master's TARDIS. The trio journeyed to Earth's Pharos Project to stop the rampant entropy the Master had unleashed upon the universe. Once there, she witnessed the Doctor's near-fatal fall from the Project's radio telescope and his consequent regeneration. (TV: Logopolis)
Tegan did not abandon the Doctor, even though she was ostensibly in her proper time and place. Perhaps seeing she would face a charge for criminal trespass, she threw her lot in with Nyssa, Adric and the newly-regenerated Doctor. Nyssa and she were critical to stabilizing the Doctor's difficult regeneration. She became a temporary TARDIS pilot (albeit receiving unknowing help from the Master) and saved it from being destroyed when it tried to travel past the Event One horizon. Her success was tempered by the Master's manipulation of the outcomes. (TV: Castrovalva)
On the planet Deva Loka, Tegan accidentally fell asleep at "the place of shared dreams", allowing the Mara to take over her body after torturing her with nightmares. She was freed from the Mara when it possessed a mute Kinda male. While the Mara was being destroyed by forcing it to look at its reflection, Tegan looked at the Mara, apparently allowing a small portion of it to escape deep into her subconscious. (TV: Kinda)She later displayed at least a basic appreciation for cricket and a talent for dancing the Charleston, which she had learned for a school play, as an accidental guest at Cranleigh Hall with the Doctor, Adric and Nyssa. She strove to prove the Doctor innocent of the murder of one the mansion's staff, which was committed by the deranged and hidden son of the Cranleighs. (TV: Black Orchid)
During a trip to the 26th century, when the Doctor took a walk to ease his stress after an argument with Adric, Tegan was accused by soldiers, along with the Doctor and Nyssa, of killing archaeologists. It turned out to be androids controlled by the Cybermen. Tegan joined them in their trip to a cargo freighter, inadvertently transporting Cybermen to invade Earth. During this encounter Adric lost his life trying to disarm the Cybermen's control device on the ship out of scholarly pride. Tegan was furious at the Doctor's refusal to go back in time and rescue Adric. (TV: Earthshock)
Tegan was left behind at Heathrow Airport in her home time due to a misunderstanding. (TV: Time-Flight)
Having been sacked from her job as an air stewardess for unknown reasons, Tegan went to Amsterdam in January 1983 on a trip to find her lost cousin, Colin Frazer. She ended up captured by Omega, a rogue Time Lord whom the Doctor had previously defeated during his third incarnation. Omega had kidnapped her cousin to use as bait to lure her there. Tegan was used as leverage by Omega to have the Doctor stay alive so his genetic template could be used to create a new body for Omega out of positive matter. Once the process was done and began to fail, Tegan reunited with the Doctor and watched him seemingly destroy Omega before he could revert to anti-matter and destroy Earth. (TV: Arc of Infinity) However, the Doctor soon learned that Omega had survived and had taken refuge in the Sector of Forgotten Souls. (AUDIO: Omega)
On Manussa, the remnants of the Mara which had possessed her gave Tegan prophetic dreams about the cave whence the jewel drew power. Despite the Doctor's efforts to help her suppress the monster, Tegan submitted to its will again and helped it feed on the negative emotions of those at a ceremony recalling the creature's first defeat. The Doctor performed the "snakedance" and found the "still point" within himself, destroying the Mara for good, for he had no negative emotions for it to feed on. Tegan was permanently freed from its possession. (TV: Snakedance)
Back on Earth, Tegan met two different versions of the retired Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart. He was teaching at a public school whose student population included the mysterious Turlough. She displayed a talent for character assessment when she immediately warmed to the former, while distrusting the latter. When she mistook Mawdryn for the Doctor, going through a bad regeneration, Tegan ended up infected with his virus, which caused her to age backwards when the real Doctor tried to remove her from Mawdryn's spaceship in the TARDIS. Tegan was saved when the two versions of the Brigadier met, releasing enough energy to power Mawdryn's machine, cure her and Nyssa, and allow Mawdryn and his fellow mutants to die. Turlough joined the TARDIS crew, something Tegan was not pleased about. (TV: Mawdryn Undead)Thanks to Turlough's sabotaging of the TARDIS, Tegan and the others ended up on a spaceship filled with victims suffering from Lazar's disease. While the Doctor sought out the controls to prevent the ship from causing another Big Bang that would end the universe, she and Turlough were sent to find Nyssa, who had been infected and taken away for treatment. Nyssa's decision to stay on Terminus to care for the victims of Lazar's disease affected Tegan emotionally. (TV: Terminus)
Tegan had a brief romance with the Eternal Marriner, a being who didn't love her so much as want to live vicariously through her emotions. During the same adventure, she saw Turlough turn from evil and reject the Black Guardian. This caused her to warm up to Turlough, if just a little. (TV: Enlightenment)
Two days later Tegan, Turlough and the Doctor arrived on Helheim where they were reunited with Nyssa but it had been fifty years for her. Tegan discovered that Nyssa had cured Lazar's disease. After the Doctor failed to take Nyssa home she joined them again on the TARDIS. (AUDIO: Cobwebs)
The Doctor, Tegan, Turlough and Nyssa then arrived on Cherdor in the 28th century, where they found a society which was obsessed with cleanliness, and lived under the menace of the Takers. After discovering the truth behind the origins to the corrupt society, the TARDIS crew returned to the TARDIS, but discovered that she was still possessed by the Mara. (AUDIO: The Whispering Forest)
They then arrived on Manussa during the Manussan Empire where they fought against the Mara. (AUDIO: The Cradle of the Snake)
While briefly stranded in the mid 1980s, Tegan met a teenage McDonald's employee named Dorothy "Ace" McShane, who would later become a companion of the Seventh Doctor. (PROSE: The Crystal Bucephalus)
Tegan met Peri Brown and Erimem at a cricket match attended by both her and their versions of the Doctor. That night, the three of them got drunk at a pub. (PROSE: Graham Dilley Saves the World)
The Doctor took Tegan and Turlough to the Eye of Orion to relax. However, she soon was pulled into helping the Doctor and his first three selves complete the Game of Rassilon, as part of a plan by the corrupt Lord President Borusa. Here, Tegan again met the Brigadier, along with Susan Foreman and Sarah Jane Smith. After the Doctor was made Lord President in Borusa's place, Tegan was surprised the Doctor wanted to run from the Time Lords. (TV: The Five Doctors)
She also met the Sea Devils and the Silurians when they attacked an underwater base in the late 21st century to rid the Earth of humanity. Tegan watched as the Doctor defeated them by using a gas that was fatal to reptiles.(TV: Warriors of the Deep)
Eventually, the carnage of the early phase of the Dalek civil war proved too much for Tegan to bear. She bid an emotional and accusatory farewell to the Doctor and Turlough in London in 1984 and ran off before the Doctor could respond. Even so, she ran back to see the TARDIS dematerialise, calling out her goodbyes. (TV: Resurrection of the Daleks)
Life after the Doctor Edit
After leaving the TARDIS for the second time, Tegan apparently continued working as an air stewardess for some time before returning to Brisbane to take over her father's animal-feed company.
On her 46th birthday, 22 September 2006, Tegan was briefly reunited with the Fifth Doctor, who discovered that she had been diagnosed with an incurable brain tumour and had at most a year to live. Despite the Doctor's entreaty, Tegan chose to forgo his assistance in treating the tumour. She stated that she wished to remain on Earth, because she was happy with the life that she had. She rekindled her relationship with Michael Tanaka. She had previously ended the relationship because of her tumour. (AUDIO: The Gathering)
According to another account, Tegan married William Haybourne. He died when they were both elderly. Tegan had by this point come to believe that her time with the Doctor was just her imagination. She came across a version of the Doctor that she didn't recognise. (PROSE: Good Companions)
According to research conducted by Sarah Jane Smith, Tegan was still alive as of 2010, campaigning for Aboriginal rights. (TV: Death of the Doctor)
Personality Edit
Tegan was stubborn, loud and direct, once describing herself as "just a mouth on legs." (TV: Earthshock) While she often bickered with her fellow travellers, her intrinsic honesty and morality proved useful. The Doctor once noted that these qualities made her a good coordinator. (TV: Castrovalva) She was also more likely to detect a threat to the Doctor's safety than her fellow companions. (TV: Castrovalva, TV: Mawdryn Undead)
Of her fellow travellers, she was likely closest to Nyssa, whose controlled nature was in many ways the precise opposite of her own. She was indignant at the Doctor's apparent unwillingness to save Adric's life (TV: Earthshock) and genuinely saddened when Nyssa left. (TV: Terminus)
On Deva Loka, Tegan argued with Adric after he suggested she was too weak-minded to defy the Mara and that the ensuing chaos was her fault. (TV: Kinda) However, she also showed concern for Adric's well being when he was captured and tortured by the Master. (TV: Castrovalva)
Although she despised violence (TV: Resurrection of the Daleks), she would resort to it under extreme circumstances. When the Master threatened the Doctor, Tegan immediately threw a knife at him. (TV: The King's Demons)
The Doctor often encouraged her to find her inner strength with the words, "Brave heart, Tegan" (TV: Earthshock, TV: Warriors of the Deep), which he saw her saying as he regenerated. (TV: The Caves of Androzani)
Known family Edit
- Vanessa - aunt (TV: Logopolis)
- Andrew Verney - maternal grandfather (TV: The Awakening)
- Colin Frazer - cousin (TV: Arc of Infinity)
- William Haybourne - husband (PROSE: Good Companions)
Other information Edit
- Tegan spoke one of the many indigenous Australian languages fluently. Given that Kurkutji had been taken from Earth more than twenty thousand years earlier, this feat may have been aided by the TARDIS' telepathic translation circuits, as any language would change greatly over that period of time. (TV: Four to Doomsday)
- She was a talented artist, sketching the latest fashions on Earth for Enlightenment to see. (TV: Four to Doomsday) On another occasion, she drew a picture of two Cybermen. (PROSE: Lackaday Express)
- Before leaving Earth, Tegan had seen Blake's 7. (PROSE: Cold Fusion)
- At the age of three, Tegan didn't like ice cream. (TV: Kinda)
- In terms of her personal politics, Tegan described herself as "a fully paid up Aussie republican" and "downright Bolshie." (AUDIO: The Children of Seth)
- The renegade Time Lady Iris Wildthyme met Tegan (as well as Adric and Nyssa) when she spent Christmas in the TARDIS on one occasion during the Doctor's fifth incarnation. Iris came to dislike Tegan, later describing her as "that shrill Australian woman." (AUDIO: Excelis Dawns)
- At one point during her travels with the Doctor, Tegan visited Nocturne. The Seventh Doctor later told his companions Ace and Hex that it was "a particularly lively visit." (AUDIO: Nocturne)
- The Doctor once compared Tegan and Turlough to bickering siblings. (AUDIO: Freakshow) On another occasion, Turlough jokingly told Tegan that "stubbornness is one of Australia's greatest exports." (AUDIO: The Emerald Tiger)
- Nyssa considered Tegan to be her best friend. (AUDIO: The Emerald Tiger)
- The tigress Dawon once referred to Tegan as a "shrieking she-cat." (AUDIO: The Emerald Tiger)
- The Fifth Doctor used to hide from Tegan in the TARDIS' Cloister Room. (AUDIO: No Place Like Home)
- Shortly before his death on 31 December 1926, Major Cyril Haggard referred to Tegan as "an Antipodean harpy." (AUDIO: The Emerald Tiger)
- After he believed that she had been killed, the Fifth Doctor told Lady Adela Forster that Tegan was "very dear" to him. (AUDIO: The Emerald Tiger)
- She believed that her first name was Welsh in origin. (COMIC: The Immortals)
- Harry Houdini was the first historical figure whom she met during her travels with the Doctor. (AUDIO: Smoke and Mirrors)
- Tegan once told Nyssa that the English were "surly buggers." (PROSE: Not So Much a Programme, More a Way of Life)
- The Eleventh Doctor once described Tegan as "a gobby Australian." (TV: The Crimson Horror)
Behind the scenes Edit
- Actor John Barrowman, who plays Captain Jack Harkness in both Doctor Who and its spin-off Torchwood, has a dog named Tegan Jovanka, as he told David Tennant in an episode of Doctor Who Confidential.
- The reference to Tegan still being alive in 2010 is not necessarily a contradiction of her terminal condition in The Gathering as there are many real-life accounts of people surviving with tumours for much longer than predicted, and given her connection to the Doctor there's also the possibility an as-yet-unchronicled event changed her circumstances after The Gathering. Also, the Doctor told System to help Tegan, and System did at some point go into production, as it was active in 2021 at St. Gart's Brookside Hospital in The Harvest.
- Janet Fielding appears in-character as Tegan with the Sixth Doctor in NOTDWU: A Fix with Sontarans, a story which this wiki does not consider a valid source.
- According to REF: The Doctor's Lives and Times, Tegan gave a full account of her travels with the Doctor to a mysterious individual by the name of Dr. Song.

Examples abound from healthcare, genomics, oil exploration, marketing etc. There have been 5 distinct waves of computing which all had the human at the centre of the industry. The internet of things will change this. Most communication will be between machines. To make them useful to us again they will need machine learning. This puts machine learning at the centre of the next 6th wave of computing.

Notice to Clients: The Framingham Office is Now Open at 75 Fountain Street, 2nd Floor
Attention: Due to damage resulting from a town sewage back up in the Framingham Office located at 75 Fountain Street, the office has closed the first floor space. On Thursday, December 12th services have resumed at 75 Fountain Street, 2nd floor.
Notice to Clients
If you are a client who is required to have an Photo EBT card issued under new Massachusetts law and you already have an acceptable photo on file with the RMV, the Department sent you a notice in October informing you that you would be receiving a new photo EBT card in time for your December benefits. If you have not received that card, please contact your local Transitional Assistance Office and complete address verification requirements prior to obtaining a new card.
Mission Statement
The mission of the Department of Transitional Assistance is to assist low-income individuals and families to meet their basic needs, increase their incomes, and improve their quality of life. -
SNAP Benefit Changes For Fall 2013
SNAP recipients should expect changes in their benefit amounts during Fall 2013.
- In October, the cost of living adjustment (COLA) caused some households' benefits to increase slightly, while other households saw no benefit change.
- In November, most families will see their benefits decrease due the end of the additional benefits provided by the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
- In April 2009, a law called the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) commonly known as the stimulus package, raised SNAP benefits to help people affected by the recession.
For more information about the COLA and ARRA benefit changes, visit www.mass.gov/dta/arra
Important Update for Unemployment Compensation (UC) Claimants
On January 3, 2013, President Obama signed the Tax Relief Extension Act. This law will extend Emergency Unemployment Compensation (EUC) benefits until the end of 2013. Please visit the Department of Unemployment Assistance website for more information. http://www.mass.gov/dua

More information about Forest Swords tickets
Debut album 'Engravings' is the sound of his home peninsula of the Wirral, a stone's throw from Liverpool, a place imbued with spirit and history ('Thor's Stone' takes its title from a local slab of sandstone, said to be used for Norse god sacrifices by Viking settlers). Completed over the course of the year, Barnes mixed the entire record outdoors in the Wirral countryside on his laptop: as such, 'Engravings' is a record that feels as exposed and organic as his immediate environment; beaches and bark, sand and soil.
The resulting record is a rarity in electronic music - an emotionally resonant distillation of the past couple of years in Barnes' life, and an unflinchingly powerful body of songs: both euphoric and bleak, triumphant and heavy. Taking off where his previous work started, 'Engravings' feels more articulate, structured, and affecting. Beats are more pronounced, with the looser tribalism of 'Dagger Paths' replaced with a more direct approach to rhythm. Voices are also more prominent. Barnes spent time learning to splice his own and sampled voices together to create abstracted, elliptical melody lines, and rough snatches of ecstatic choirs interject throughout the LP, calling out in either desperation or elation.
From the train-track rattling drones of 'Onward' to euphoric marching-drum closer 'Friend, You Will Never Learn', the record steps its way between cavernous electronic music and dubby, heavy slow-mo pop. Lead track 'The Weight of Gold' is an urgent, melancholy meditation centered around razor-sharp harpsichord, tranced-out vocals and chiming guitar; 'Anneka's Battle' features a guest vocal from Brighton act Anneka manipulated around a sparse, skeletal R&B beat; while 'Gathering' sees Barnes weave and loop choral voice samples to create a rapturous, hypnotic hymn.

Get off the phone
Customers on your truck deserve 100 percent of your attention.
Doug Broom, Matco Tools distributor out of Springfield, MA, offers a simple suggestion: Get off the phone.
"If I've got guys on the truck, I don't answer my phone," Doug said.
"Some guys will, some guys won't; I make it a policy to not answer the phone because if I'm waiting on guys here that've got to get back in the shop, I don't want to be tying them up because I'm on the phone.
"The customers on the truck need to be getting 100 percent. You're not giving anyone your best trying to do three things at once."

Dear Editor,
I would like to comment on Bruce Kay's letter (Government, not technology, issue with hydro project), which he wrote in response to my letter (Opposed to Lillooet Hydro project). His assertion that Innergex's Upper Lillooet river diversion project would have "little significant impact both visually or ecologically" seems to reflect a common misconception that river diversion projects have a low environmental impact.
There is a growing body of science that shows the environmental damage that river diversion projects cause to fish and other wildlife as well as to their habitat. I urge readers to read Watershed Watch Salmon Society's excellent report on river diversion projects in British Columbia (http://www.watershed-watch.org/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/TamedRivers-Web.pdf). This report highlights the problems generated by river diversion projects in Norway. River diversion projects supply 99 per cent of the country's electricity and is "the most widespread cause of problems for salmon in Norway, affecting more wild Atlantic salmon stocks than any other human-related cause, including ocean harvesting, sea lice and other parasites, acid rain, and other forms of habitat destruction." Norway is even considering removing some river diversion projects to prevent further extinction of salmon populations. These lessons learned from Norway should serve as a wake-up call to B.C.
Documentation produced by the environmental assessment process of Innergex's Upper Lillooet river diversion project shows that both the provincial government and Innergex recognize that the project will have an enormous impact on fish (bull trout, cutthroat trout and coho), grizzly bears, mountain goats, pacific tailed frogs and wolverines as well as on their habitat. The ministry of forests, lands and resource pperations expressly stated that the project's impacts on grizzly bears cannot be "meaningfully mitigated."
Innergex naturally argues that most of its project's impacts can be mitigated and/or compensated, including through such "measures" as imposing a maximum speed limit of 50 km to "prevent" traffic accidents with grizzly bears, and the use of blasting mats to "reduce noise" when blasting, which particularly affects wolverines. Innergex also proposes to "mitigate" the direct effects its project would have on a mountain goat winter forage area in a legally designated Ungulate Winter Range (UWR) by seeking to remove the affected area from the UWR and to swap it with appropriate replacement habitat. I hope the mountain goats get the memo on time.
Another so-called mitigation measure is to have an independent environmental monitor on site during the construction phase. Given that such a monitor would be paid by Innergex, her/his independence is highly questionable. I do not understand how the monitoring of known destruction to wildlife and their habitat is supposed to serve as a mitigation measure, especially given that Innergex has a history of non-compliance with flow management regulations?
I hope that the Honorable Minister of Environment, Terry Lake, and the Honorable Minister of Energy, Natural Gas, Rich Coleman, take the very substantial concerns expressed by the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Resource Operations as well as the Department of Fisheries and BC Parks into account and hence do not issue an environmental certificate for Innergex's Upper Lillooet river diversion project.

Diet and Cardiovascular Disease
The Choose My Plate plan from the federal government is a guideline to help you eat a healthy diet.
Nutrition's Role in Disease Prevention
Evidence is mounting that a healthful diet can help protect you from some diseases. What you eat -- or don't eat -- may help prevent heart disease, cancer, osteoporosis and type 2 diabetes.
Cholesterol in the Blood
The cholesterol in your blood comes from the foods you eat and your liver—but your liver makes all of the cholesterol your body needs.
Calculating Calories and Fat Grams
Here's a formula to help you figure out how many calories and fat grams you need each day to maintain your current weight.
Determining Your Body Mass Index
Your BMI gives a fairly accurate assessment of how much of your body is composed of fat.
Cook for a Healthy Heart
Part of eating a heart-healthy diet means fixing foods using low-sodium, low-fat, and low-cholesterol methods.
Simple Ways to Improve Your Diet
Eating healthy can reduce your risk of illness and lengthen your life. Eating a balanced, low-fat, low-cholesterol diet reduces your risk of heart disease, certain cancers, diabetes, stroke and other diseases. Follow these tips to help improve your diet.
How to Make Heart-Healthy Food Choices
Maintaining a healthy diet is one of the best weapons for fighting cardiovascular disease and other heart conditions.
Omega-3 Fatty Acids and Coronary Heart Disease
Omega-3s are a beneficial and essential form of fat, one that your body needs but can't make.
Good Sources of Antioxidants
The most important antioxidants are vitamin C, vitamin E, and carotenoids, including beta carotene.
Components of Food
When trying to make heart-healthy changes to your lifestyle and diet, it is helpful to know some basics about nutrition.
Swap This for That to Control Cholesterol
With a few simple substitutions, you can reduce the cholesterol in your meals—and boost your heart health.
Prevention of Heart Disease Starts in Childhood
You may think of heart disease as a problem for adults, not your young children. But diet and exercise habits started in childhood can begin a lifetime of heart health, or a lifetime of heart damage.

Football: Obstacles aside, Huskies have solid recruiting class
Former Syracuse coach Paul Pasqualoni speaks after he is announced as the new head football coach at the University of Connecticut, during a news conference in Storrs, Conn., Friday, Jan. 14, 2011. (AP Photo/Jessica Hill) |
Big East football is a shell of what is used to be, and what it used to be was never a huge drawing point for recruits. The UConn coaching staff has undergone at least one significant change and the Huskies haven't posted a winning record since coach Paul Pasqualoni arrived two years ago.
Yet at the end of today's national football letter of intent signing day, the Huskies are likely to have the best-rated recruiting class in the program's history. Rankings, of course, mean little, but the solid recruiting Pasqualoni was expected to bring to Storrs appears to have taken root.
"The Big East issues are certainly used against UConn and every Big East team in the recruiting battles," said noted CBS Sports Network recruiting analyst Tom Lemming. "Ultimately it's facilities and playing time that matter to kids. And Paul Pasqualoni is a guy who's coached in the NFL and sent players from Syracuse to the NFL. Kids pay attention to that.
"There are some things going against UConn but they've had a pretty good year recruiting."
Credit a late surge for that.
Twenty-two players are expected to sign with the Huskies today. Two more, receivers Dhameer Bradley and Noel Thomas have already signed and are on campus. Last month, the Huskies received commitments from linebacker Jalen Stevens (Goose Creek, S.C.), highly regarded receiver Brian Lemelle (Harrisburg, Pa.),
See FOOTBALL, Page 3C
Windsor defensive end Cole Ormsby and tight end Jordan Fuchs (Middle Village, N.Y.), a former schoolmate of UConn basketball guard Omar Calhoun.
In the last few days, offensive tackle Chasz Wright (Woodbridge, Va.), linebacker Chris Britton (Harrisburg, Pa.) and quarterback Tim Boyle (Middletown) have offered their commitments. Until last month, UConn's recruiting class was considered middle of the pack in the Big East. According to Scout.com and FoxSports.net, it is now considered the third-best class in the Big East.
"It's really been a good month for UConn," Lemming said. "They deserve some credit for that given the changes in the coaching staff."
The excitement surrounding the class centers mostly on the two quarterbacks and Lemelle. Boyle had originally committed to Boston College, but after speaking with new Eagles coach Steve Addazio there was a mutual parting of ways. Boyle quickly shifted his allegiance to UConn.
Joining Boyle at quarterback is Richard Lagow, a Plano, Texas, product who played at Plano Senior High in the highest classification in talent-rich Texas. The pair will bring the number of quarterbacks on the roster to five, including incumbent starter Chandler Whitmer, Wildcat specialist Scott McCummings and redshirt freshman Casey Cochran.
Lagow is 6-foot-5 and 204 pounds. He is a bit lanky but an ESPN scouting report on him reads, in part: "He possesses ideal size and can make all throws and some look easy." An ESPN report on Boyle called him an "under the radar" player for programs looking for a drop-back passer.
New offensive coordinator T.J. Weist promises to employ a multiple-look offense that is likely to be a bit heavier on the drop-back passing game considering the quarterbacks UConn has. Those quarterbacks need receivers to throw the ball to and many hope Lemelle will eventually be one of the focal points in that regard.
Weist was heavily involved in Lemelle's recruitment while at Cincinnati and managed to get Lemelle to switch his focus, showing that the new offensive coordinator is already paying dividends.
When he arrived, Pasqualoni promised to put more focus on keeping in-state players home. Six Connecticut players are part of the class, including Boyle, Ormsby and Thomas. Also staying home are a pair of linebackers in Madison's Matt Walsh and Cheshire Academy's Cory Jasudowich. Coventry tight end Tommy Myers will travel just a few miles up the road to play his college football.

With each passing day the concept of a traditional wedding ceremony is becoming less and less appealing to me. At almost-25, I'm looking for thrill and awesome memories to share with my siblings and my children's children. If we both know we wanna be married to each other for the rest of our lives, and yes I love you and you love me, why not just do the damn thing – disappear to a paradise and elope. Just us, you know what I mean? And if we so desire, we can host an intimate and private soirée for our nearests and dearests upon our return from paradise. Jeezz! Life's too short. Let's live a little. ❤
Much to my enjoyment, I've been watching season 3 episodes of House from about 5am this morning. Considering that this is approximately my 20th time watching this season, you'd think that I'd be bored dead, right? Not at all! House is actually on of my favourite shows ever. I find the medical stories and the diagnostics somewhat intriguing. Anyway, this post isnt about House.
Somewhere between Dr. House's usual sarcasm and cynicism, and watching the medical savant work medical magic, I picked up on a quote to ponder from a conversation on relationships between one of Dr. House's supporting doctors and a patient's wife. Read on…
Wife: "Marriages don't fail because couples get bored. They fail because while they're dating, people pretend to be the person they think their partner wants and then, there's only so long you can keep that up."
Dr.: "Maybe they are that person when they're dating but then they change."
Wife: "People thinking their partner will change, that's another reason marriages fail. People don't change, at least not in any way that really matters."
So what do you think?…
I've been thinking about marriages and divorce all day...read more after the click
Check out my latest Twitter rant!:
Elin is reportedly asking for $780m in her divorce settlement from her soon to be Ex, Tiger Woods! Sad part is last year Forbes approximated Tiger's worth at only $600m. So I sincerly doubt she'll walk away with $780m upfront! But whatever she gets I hope it breaks celebrity divorce settlement records! She deserves every penny for the shame and embarrasment Tiger's infidelity or "indiscretion" brought to her and her family!
But as I was later reminded by one of my followers: "Michael Jordan's ex wife got $168 mil and they were married almost 20 yrs. it'll be interesting to see what she does get."
And if I remember clearly Jordan was only making about 2 times that amount so…the settlement in Elin and Tiger's divorce ought to be very interesting!
That is all!
With love,

Musical and drama fans flocked to Manhattan's Theater District on Sunday for the 26th annual Broadway Flea Market.
This annual event at Shubert Alley featured celebrities from Broadway's biggest shows, live and silent auctions and exclusive backstage access.
Some of the most coveted prizes included an opportunity to meet actor-singer Barbra Streisand and the chance to have lunch with actor Angela Lansbury.
Other lots included opening night VIP tickets to 15 new Broadway shows, signed posters and shirts worn by Hugh Jackman and Ricky Martin.
"When the audience comes, they are the other collaborator in the show, so to have the audience there, come in and for us to be able to come in with them and mingle with them and talk with them and meet them is wonderful," said actor Bebe Neuwirth.
"Poverty and disease and unfairness are constant enemies and if you have chance to do something about them, why wouldn't you do that?" said actor Tyne Daly.
Proceeds from the event will go to more than 400 AIDS and family service organizations nationwide. For more information, visit www.broadwaycares.org.

In 2003, Greg Dalton began working with students and young adults in
terms of their career choice and career management. Over the subsequent
years, Greg had on many an occasion the need to refer some of these
individuals on to more suitable support in that of counsellors, therapists or
The need for this additional support seemed to be due to the stresses and
strains society and existing systems placed on these individuals on making
such critical choices for their lives at such a tender stage of life without any
apparent structure to assist their choices. Often these individuals sought
advice from friends, family, teachers and peers. This advice was given with
the best of intentions, without any formal processes engaged.
This pressure on these people often led them to make hasty decisions
about their career without thorough examination of the individuals own
personal ambitions, emotions, skills, capabilities or behavioural traits.
This pressure placed on these people all too often led them to feel
undervalued, uncertain and insecure, leading to some form of stress related
illnesses or symptoms.
We hear all too often of someone taking their lives by suicide. It is the
belief of Greg that these deaths are sometimes linked to these stresses
placed on these people at too early a stage of their lives.
In May of 2010, Greg set up a Facebook page to make a statement to the
systemic bodies that these individuals need additional support. Within a few
short weeks, it became evident that this support was indeed desperately
After receiving many encouraging communications from private individuals,
organisations and politicians Greg decided to form a legal entity (Ó Lá Go
Lá Teoranta) with charitable status with the sole objective of suicide
We are now working with many organisations and agencies to the
betterment of suicide prevention not only in Ireland but world wide.
Thanks to all members, staff & volunteers, past and present we now have
the most innovative and groundbreaking process in suicide prevention, our
mission is to remain at the forefront of suicide prevention throughout the
world. Without their input, support and enthusiasm this organisation would
never have been formed and the lives of many may have been put at risk.
