- "We will take our city back. And drive our enemy into the grave they've been so happily digging."—Lord Terrence Hood, to UNSC Marines just before the Battle of Voi.
Fleet Admiral Lord Terrence Hood is the de facto leader of the UNSC, a flag officer of the UNSC Navy, Chief of Naval Operations, and the Commanding Officer of the UNSC Home Fleet.
Before the Battle of EarthEdit
Hood was a decorated UNSCDF combat veteran and a British noble[1] as the Human-Covenant war neared its end. SPARTAN-IIs saved his life twice and he generally defended the program against its detractors. Hood met John-117 prior to the Fall of Reach.[2]
He had been promoted to Fleet Admiral and taken a prominent seat on the UNSC Security Committee by September 4, 2552. In the aftermath of the Fall of Reach, Hood received Lieutenant Wagner's report on the Fall of Reach in front of the Committee. The admiral was interested in the fate of the UNSC Pillar of Autumn and its SPARTAN-IIs, and was dismayed to find most of the supersoldiers had been expended during the battle. Hood also considered Wagner's petition to authorize a mission to search for survivors on Reach.[2]
Battle of EarthEdit
- Main article: Battle of Earth
In October 2552, Hood presided over an awards ceremony aboard Cairo Station recognizing the participants of the Battle of Installation 04. Captain Jacob Keyes and Sergeant Major Avery Johnson were awarded the Colonial Cross; Commander Miranda Keyes received her father's posthumous award.
The ceremony was interrupted by the attack on Earth by the Prophet of Regret's Covenant fleet. The Admiral ordered John-117 to defend Cairo from enemy boarders and assumed command of the defense from the station.[3]
On November 3, 2552, Doctor Catherine Halsey sent a request to Admiral Hood requesting Spartan support on Onyx. The Admiral obliged; he authorized SPARTAN-II Blue Team, consisting of Frederic-104, Linda-058, and William-043, to assist.
Late Battle of EarthEdit
- "Master Chief, you mind telling me what you're doing on that ship?"—Lord Hood discovers John's return to Earth
- "Sir... finishing this fight."—John-117
Hood was commanding from a damaged Orbital Defense Platform when John-117 arrived in the Sol System aboard a Covenant-controlled Forerunner Dreadnought. The Spartan established a communication link with the Admiral indicating he was aboard the alien ship.[4]
John-117 was not the only returnee from Installation 05. Commander Keyes and Sergeant Johnson preceded him. Hood gave Johnson permission to interrogate a rebel Engineer. The engineer had been extracted several weeks earlier from New Mombasa by Captain Dare's Helljumper squad. The UNSC was interested in what the Covenant were looking for.[5]
The battle left the Admiral with few ships. By now it was obvious the Covenant were excavating something near New Mombasa. Commander Keyes proposed a daring offensive to destroy the grounded Forerunner ship; Hood gave his approval only after John-117 was recovered. Once the Spartan and Thel 'Vadam disabled local enemy air defenses, Hood led a squadron of frigates from UNSC Forward Unto Dawn[6] and Longsword fighters in a low altitude strike on the dreadnought. The attack failed and the Covenant left through a Slipspace portal to Installation 00.[7][8]
Battle of the ArkEdit
The departure of the Covenant was followed by a Flood attack. It was repelled with the aid of Covenant Separatists, and a message from Cortana was retrieved. The AI claimed a solution to the Flood could be found on Installation 00. Hood met with Shipmaster Rtas 'Vadum aboard the Separatist Assault Carrier Shadow of Intent. The two disagreed on strategy. The Admiral was not confident of the AI's advice given its damaged state and was prepared to fight a conventional battle against the Flood. The Ship Master saw this guaranteed suicide as foolish and opted to lead an expedition through the portal to find Cortana's solution. John-117 and Commander Keyes agreed with the Ship Master, and convinced a weary Hood to spare ships and troops to accompany the Separatists. Hood remained on Earth as the combined task force departed.[8]
At the end of the war, he conducted the memorial service near the city of Voi, Kenya and the Portal. While he could not forgive the Sangheili for their part in the war, he thanked Thel 'Vadam for helping John-117 and the UNSC and expressed his sorrow at John-117's apparent "death", saying "it's hard to believe he's dead," to which Thel agreed (also assuming John had died).[9]
Lord Hood facilitated an official peace treaty with the Sangheili through Thel 'Vadam. Thel 'Vadam was invited to the Hillside Memorial. Later during the Sangheili Civil War he offered Thel 'Vadam assistance from the Infinity on a "Thursday War" after being convinced by Admiral Margaret Parangosky. In March of 2558 he boarded the Infinity to have peace talks with Thel 'Vadam and Lydus on Ealen IV, however it was interrupted by the Guardians of the Righteous.
- His Command Neural Interface port is clearly visible at the back of his head.
- Hood was voiced by Hollywood actor Ron Perlman in Halo 2 and in Halo 3. His appearance is closely based on Perlman's.
- Lord Hood's name is most likely based upon Admiral Hood who fought Napoleon at the Battle of Toulon.
- Lord Hood is the highest ranking UNSC officer shown in the entire Halo Trilogy.
- Lord Hood's military decorations are (from top left) the Combat Action Ribbon, the Joint Service Meritorious Unit Commendation, the Navy "E" Ribbon, the Meritorious Unit Commendation, the Navy Rifle Marksman Ribbon, the Medal of Honor, the Purple Heart, and the Navy and Marine Corps Medal. It is odd that he wears his high-ranking medals below the lesser non-medal ribbons, although UNSC uniform regulations in 2552 are probably different from those in the present-day military.
- In Halo: First Strike and the Halo Legends episode Origins, Hood has grey hair. Yet in Halo 3, he is clearly shown to be bald. Though it is possible he shaved his head between events or he was wearing a wig.
- Strangely, though Lord Hood is a Fleet Admiral, which would be shown by five stars, his shoulderboards only show four stars, which suggests the rank of Admiral. It is unknown if this is a personal preference or if the ranking insignias have been significantly changed by 2552.
- He is known as "Shipmaster of Shipmasters" among the Sangheili.

Those Sales People Work Awfully Hard
by Trent Gilliss, senior editor
Hey, that's John, one of our stations relations reps, making it happen. How fun! Thanks for the snapshot NPR Digital Services:
John Ryan of American Public Media and Virginia Prescott of New Hampshire Public Radio doing what the event's name implies at last night's Association of Independents in Radio Mingle at Tavolo Restaurant in Dorchester.
Unfortunately, it's an existential question. It's far more important to be branded than to actually exist.
— said by Kate Moos when discussing how to implement the American Public Media brand more effectively in working with potential guests and media companies

Meg has had a difficult time of it. Her mother, Eve, had a breakdown when her sister was kidnapped and Meg grew up fast. Luckily, she had lots of aunts, uncles and cousins to support her, since her father was persona non grata. In fact, she has never known who he was. On top of that, the love of her adolescence was Brad O'Ballivan. Brad is part of the other legendary family in the area around Stone Creek and Indian Rock, Arizona. He left Meg to seek his fortune in the music industry, where he made his mark as a country and western singer/song writer. He left just when Meg discovered she was pregnant with their child. But she never told him and she ultimately miscarried the child.
Now Brad is back, set to retire and take over the ranch that he was able to save and restore with his money. Sadly his grandfather, who raised Brad and his sister, has recently died, but Brad is determined to enjoy the ranch life and give up the Hollywood lifestyle he is sick of. He has hopes that he and Meg can get back together.
Meanwhile, Meg has a lot going on in her life. She never really got over Brad and is secretly thrilled when he returns. Yet she is heartsore and not sure she can survive another breakup. When circumstances throw them together, she starts to take that chance. Complications arise when Meg's father shows up toting a twelve-year-old half-sister for her. He says he is dying and wants Meg to finish raising Carly…a young girl who is about the age Meg's child would have been had she lived.
Like many of Miller's work, there are folksy feelings and a sense of the past. In fact, there are even ghosts, which were introduced in the other books in the series, but much more prevalent here. Miller also writes a good romance and although the sexual action is tame for her, it is still engaging. Brad is a man who is ready to settle down and yet feels vulnerable that he is putting his feelings out there. Meg is a hard-headed McKettrick but that is not her whole personality. In fact, there were times when the tale could have used the old misunderstanding as a plot device, and Miller went in the opposite direction. It was refreshing!
There is a side story about a horse and Brad's sister, Olivia, that nicely sets up her story. And a new character is introduced right at the end, leaving one wanting to know how he plays in it. With this set –up and some old history about Eve and other members of the family playing a major part in the story, this tale probably does not stand alone.
As a part of the series, however, The McKettrick Way is funny, poignant and romantic. It is a well written and engaging entry that I think Miller's many fans will enjoy.

Those are two simple questions to which companies often have long, complicated, jargon-filled, boring answers. And that's a shame because every company has a good story that can be used to attract different audiences such as investors, prospects, customers, partners, reporters and even employees. In a nutshell, DASH Consulting uses video to help companies get to the point by coaching executives on how to develop a clear, concise, compelling narrative about what their company does. It's simple. But often neglected. As one client put it, "Videotape is ugly. But it works."

Lil Kim's Publicist Responds To Facial Distortion Allegations
A rep for Lil Kim denounces Media Takeout's story claiming that the rapper's face was distorted during her RapFix Live appearance.
Following reports from celebrity gossip site Media Takeout that Lil Kim's face appeared distorted after her appearance on Wednesday's episode of RapFix Live, a publicist for Lil Kim has responded to the harsh allegations made about her client.
In a statement released this week, Lil Kim's publicist, C.J. Carter, referred to Media Takeout's story as "fictitious, malicious, and despicable."
"As of yesterday a story surfaced on the ever so popular, but NEVER credible blog site Media Takeout, the story implied that Grammy Award Winning HipHopstress Lil Kim was physically distorted and even went so far as to graphically edit photos to add some type of validity to their story, that can only be described as fictitious, malicious, and despicable," Carter explained in her statement.
The rapstress' publicist went on to explain that Lil Kim and her team are taking Media Takeout's story very seriously, although at this time it is unclear if any further actions will be taken.
"We would like to inform fans, the media, and the general public that this is nothing more than the blog site doing its best to conjure up much needed publicity and what better way to do so, than to take an American music icon and create a fictitious platform in which to disrespect and humiliate," Carter added. "We at Team Lil Kim are not taking this lying down and are taking this matter very seriously. The photos below are from the MTV appearance and clearly depict a beautiful and soft Lil Kim that furthermore proves that anyone with access to a server and an audience can create filth and present it to the masses as credible editorial content."

It appears that MacOS 10.8 (Mountain Lion) introduces this problem as well. The provided Applescript seems to exclude 10.8 (and 10.9?) systems, so on my Mountain Lion system it wouldn't run. However, I crashed InDesign CS6 when exporting an IDML file. I edited the AppleScript to remove the system check and ran it for InDesign CS6, I was then able to export and IDML from InDesign CS6 on Mountain Lion.
I hope this helps someone...
This was the GM which we received as part of the developer program. We've confirmed that it's the same build as the release today. I can't CONFIRM that the problem I experienced was due to the warning dialog problem, but I tried exporting the same ID CS6 file to IDML twice, and it crashed both times. I then hacked up the AppleScript, applied it to CS5 and CS6, and tried exporing from CS6 again. This time it worked.
Unfortunately I don't have any extra machines to confirm my finding with right now. It may have been a fluke. I'm hoping someone else can confirm.
Well Bob, its already broke with Lion and I am using a fix from this thread. I would not have upgraded from Snow Leopard if it was able to run on a RMBP, but Lion is whats needed. There are some nice features in Mountain Lion that I like and make it a bit similar to Snow Leopard, which is why I want to know if the problems are the same in Mountain Lion as they are in Lion, because I have a work around for the moment that keeps me productive. Would just be nice to have a fix from Adobe, but this at least keeps me working.
There is no way anyone can assure you it will or won't work. If you have the guts, then try it, but I have a personal policy against doing in place operating system upgrades. I'm not sure what's involved in doing a clean install but I would certainly go that route to be safe.
FWIW, I ordered a new MacBook Air yesterday so I'll get my own opportunity to find out what does and doesn't work.
I do the testing in my office, it does not hit all the other machines till I work out the bugs. Also if need I can restore from a backup in about 45 mins so its not a huge loss. Like the current problem it effects people with a specific machine, so asking people with similar models who are currently affected does give some insight.
I installed Mountain Lion on my RMBP yesterday night. I cant see any issues with CS6, illustrator, Photoshop and Indesign seem to be working fine with no crashing. I cant be sure about Indesign with the problems that happened in Lion as I used the preference file that was linked to on this thread to avoid some warning dialogue boxes. But it is functional, and things seem much faster in Mountain Lion, its a good upgrade.
Great news:
I was having the same problem with CS4 on mid-2012 MBP with 10.7.4, but I'm really please to announce that I've just upgraded to Mountain Lion and CS4 seems to have fixed itself!
I decided that I wouldn't do any patching/moving/updating until after Mountain Lion was released (in case there were more issues thrown up).
So just to be clear, CS4 was crashing on error dialogs like everybody elses, I didn't do any of the things on the solution page, installed Mountain Lion and now CS4 works again!
On a completely unrelated note - is anyone else finding that ML seems a bit slow?

Natalie Kepple gets ready to return the serve while playing singles against a player from Downieville at the Quincy Tennis Invitational on April 19. Kepple went on to win the consollation bracket for girls' singles. Photos by James Wilson |
Quincy High's tennis team hosted its annual invitational April 19-20 with matches being played around the clock. The Plumas Christian School team showed up to compete, as well as Downieville and River City.
"The tournament went great," said Matt McMorrow, one of Quincy's coaches. "Everyone had fun and every player got to play."
Quincy has the only remaining tennis team in Plumas County's public school system. Chester high had a team last year, but due to rising gas costs decided not to have a team this year. The Plumas Christian School's program has an extensive history and is still going strong.
River City left Quincy as the tournament champion, winning girls singles and doubles and boys singles and doubles. Though neither Quincy nor the Plumas Christian School took first place, there were several athletes who performed extremely well.
Quincy High's Allison Sipe and Danny Ryback teamed up and placed third in mixed doubles. Natalie Kepple won the consolation bracket in the girls' singles. Ryback and Kyle Morgan took third in the boys' doubles. Morgan and Abby Edwards also got the consolation for mixed doubles.
The Plumas Christian School team also proved to be tough competition. Nick Shirk placed third in the boys' singles. Ethan Hicks and Matthew Abramson got the consolation in boys' doubles.
Quincy's and the Plumas Christian's next set of matches are April 25 at Quincy High's courts.

A Devotional Series by Charles H. Spurgeon
Saturday, April 13, 2013
"And he shall put his hand upon the head of the burnt offering; and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement for him." --Leviticus 1:4
Our Lord's being made "sin for us" is set forth here by the very significant transfer of sin to the bullock, which was made by the elders of the people. The laying of the hand was not a mere touch of contact, for in some other places of Scripture the original word has the meaning of leaning heavily, as in the expression, "thy wrath lieth hard upon me" (Psalm 88:7). Surely this is the very essence and nature of faith, which doth not only bring us into contact with the great Substitute, but teaches us to lean upon him with all the burden of our guilt. Jehovah made to meet upon the head of the Substitute all the offences of his covenant people, but each one of the chosen is brought personally to ratify this solemn covenant act, when by grace he is enabled by faith to lay his hand upon the head of the "Lamb slain from before the foundation of the world." Believer, do you remember that rapturous day when you first realized pardon through Jesus the sin bearer? Can you not make glad confession, and join with the writer in saying, "My soul recalls her day of deliverance with delight. Laden with guilt and full of fears, I saw my Saviour as my Substitute, and I laid my hand upon him; oh! how timidly at first, but courage grew and confidence was confirmed until I leaned my soul entirely upon him; and now it is my unceasing joy to know that my sins are no longer imputed to me, but laid on him, and like the debts of the wounded traveller, Jesus, like the good Samaritan, has said of all my future sinfulness, 'Set that to my account.'" Blessed discovery! Eternal solace of a grateful heart!
"My numerous sins transferr'd to him,
Shall never more be found,
Lost in his blood's atoning stream,
Where every crime is drown'd!"

UNITED Bankshares Inc. announced this week its acquisition of Virginia Commerce Bancorp. Inc. of Arlington, Va., for $490.6 million in an all-stock transaction.
This comes a decade after Richard Adams, the company's chairman and chief executive officer, announced in 2002 that the No. 1 priority of "West Virginia's bank" is expansion in the nation's capital and its suburbs in Maryland and Virginia.
The acquisition also comes more than two years after a panel discussion at the 2010 Business Summit, when Adams said:
"What separates the environment in West Virginia and Virginia? The answer is clear to me: It's all about policy: tax policy, judicial reform policy, education policy.
"There is no question: If West Virginia is to succeed from an economic standpoint, every issue faced in the Legislature, we should ask, 'Are we competitive if we pass this legislation?'"
What was true then is true today. When a top banker at West Virginia's bank speaks, prudent legislators should listen.
IN 2009, New York State decided to raise taxes on those with income of $500,000 or more a year to a whopping 8.97 percent.
In 2010, some millionaires decided to move to Florida where the income tax rate is zero, the New York Post said. And in some cases, they took their companies with them.
"Florida is a state of choice," said Thalius Hecksher, global development chief for Apex Fund Services, which moved many of its operations to Palm Beach.
"It's organically grown. There's no need to drag people down here. It's a zero-income-tax jurisdiction."
Many people warned New York that it would lose revenue on the deal. Last year the state relented and dropped its rate to 6.85 percent for income of between $300,000 and $2 million. For those making more than 2 million, New York dropped the rate to 8.82 percent.
Does anyone seriously think a drop of 0.15 percent in the tax rate will lure any double-millionaire back from Florida?
As West Virginians have learned over the years, it is far easier to drive successful people away than it is to attract them.

Comments about Danner Light Lovejoy:
I have been searching high and low for a ultra-lightweight everyday boot. I wanted it to be unique and rugged but still narrow and tactile enough to drive a WRX. This boot nails it.
I believe my particular boot is NOS? It's more brownish than black. Simply a gorgeous boot. People REALLY like this boot. Dressed up or dressed down it gets compliments. It fits narrow but is extremely comfortable. Very lightweight. The boots are recraftable so any decently trained boot shop can resole as needed!
Negatives so far are the ankle collars are a touch stiff causing a tiny bit of boot bite. Shifting my moto causes a bit of left toe rub. Off-camber, root ridden, muddy trails can be a bit treacherous. As for the sole wear issue, it's to be expected with the "crepe" style sole. Pick a Gumlight for your next resole?
All in all the craftsmanship is awesome and they are very comfortable. Thanks Danner for bringing the Japanese hiker style stateside!

Oral Medicines for Type 2 DiabetesTaking care of your diabetes is a bit like building a home. With input from your diabetes care team contractors, you begin by drafting a well-thought-out set of blueprints and assembling all the tools you need to control your blood glucose levels. Healthy eating and physical activity serve as a sturdy foundation for your house of diabetes care, while monitoring blood glucose provides you with feedback for changes to the existing plans. Although eating well and exercising are always the first line of therapy for all types of diabetes, there may come a time when you and your health-care team decide to intensify your Type 2 diabetes control by adding an oral blood-glucose-lowering medicine to your carefully crafted plan. Oral medicines are one tool that can give you a step up toward reaching your blood glucose targets and reinforcing your strong diabetes home.
What goes wrong The liver is also involved in the process by tracking insulin levels in the blood. In a person without diabetes, both insulin and glucose levels are elevated at the same time after eating. If a person hasn't eaten for several hours (such as overnight), the liver senses the lack of insulin and responds by producing glucose from storage to keep the blood glucose level from dropping too low. When Type 2 diabetes sets in, the liver may fail to sense insulin levels properly and may produce more glucose than required. In a nutshell, three areas "in need of repairs" characterize Type 2 diabetes: insulin resistance (muscle cells that don't easily take in glucose), insulin deficiency (a pancreas that doesn't make enough insulin), and increased hepatic glucose output (a liver that releases too much glucose). Fortunately, there are several options in the diabetes toolbox to make the needed repairs, including healthy eating, physical activity, and oral medicines.
The diabetes toolbox Many health-care providers and their patients choose to begin the path to intensified blood glucose control with oral medicines. It's important to note up front that oral medicines are not insulin. Insulin can't be given orally because digestive enzymes would destroy it. Control of Type 2 diabetes involves a stepwise approach that begins with identifying the proper treatment plan based on your age, weight, desired level of blood glucose control, and specific characteristics of the medicines being considered. Often the plan begins with monotherapy, which is one blood-glucose-lowering medicine in addition to a healthy lifestyle. If this doesn't achieve the desired result, adding one or more additional medicines (combination therapy) may be considered. Combination therapy may involve taking two or more individual pills, or it may be achieved with one of the newer combination pills, which have two drugs in one pill. Research has shown that most of the oral diabetes medicines currently on the market lower glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) approximately 1% to 2%. The HbA1c test is an indicator of average blood glucose control over the previous 2–3 months. The American Diabetes Association currently advocates an HbA1c reading lower than 7% for most people with diabetes. The American Academy of Clinical Endocrinologists recommends an HbA1c value below 6.5%. You and your health-care provider should agree on a target that is right for you. Higher HbA1c levels are associated with the development of diabetes complications. In general, certain classes of drugs, including the sulfonylureas, meglitinides, d-phenylalanine derivatives, and biguanides, are more potent in lowering blood glucose than are others, such as the thiazolidinediones or alpha-glucosidase inhibitors when used as monotherapy. (See "Effectiveness of Oral Medicines" for a comparison.) However, there are limits to how much of any one drug can be taken. When a maximal dose of one drug isn't enough to keep blood glucose levels in the desired range, adding a drug from a different class can lower blood glucose further. Insulin injections are another option for treating Type 2 diabetes and may eventually be necessary due to its progressive nature. Many physicians recommend starting insulin when three oral medicines are not effective at keeping blood glucose under control. Insulin may either be added to the current regimen of pills or used in place of one or more of the oral medicines a person has been taking. Type 2 diabetes involves several problems in metabolism, and oral medicines have been developed to provide solutions to each one. Six distinct classes of oral drugs are now available for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes. "Oral Diabetes Medicines at a Glance" summarizes the important characteristics of each class. Each class has a different mechanism of action, which means that each contributes to blood glucose control in a different way. Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors. This class of drugs, which includes acarbose (brand name Precose) and miglitol (Glyset), acts by inhibiting the breakdown and subsequent absorption of carbohydrates from the gut following meals, so it is most effective in controlling postprandial (after-meal) elevations in blood glucose. Hypoglycemia (low blood glucose) generally does not occur when one of these pills is taken as monotherapy, but it can occur when one or the other is taken in combination with a blood-glucose-lowering drug that can cause hypoglycemia. It's important to note that because of the carbohydrate-blocking effect of alpha-glucosidase inhibitors, some traditional treatments for low blood glucose, such as fruit juice, aren't as effective at raising blood glucose as they normally would be. Sources of pure glucose, such as tablets or gel, are recommended. Gastrointestinal side effects such as abdominal discomfort, bloating, flatulence, and diarrhea may occur when using an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor. Biguanides. Only one biguanide, namely metformin (Glucophage), is currently approved for marketing in the United States. Metformin is most effective in overweight or obese people who are insulin-resistant. It works by reducing liver glucose output, and it may also improve insulin sensitivity in the liver and muscle and fat cells. Metformin appears to suppress appetite and also lower cardiovascular risk factors without risk of hypoglycemia. Its major disadvantage is that it can cause gastrointestinal problems, particularly at higher doses. A rare but serious side effect of metformin is lactic acidosis, in which lactic acid builds up in the bloodstream. People with heart, lung, kidney, or liver problems and those who drink alcohol heavily are more prone to developing lactic acidosis. Sulfonylureas. This class of drugs—which includes glipizide (Glucotrol, Glucotrol XL), glyburide (DiaBeta, Glynase, Micronase), glimepiride (Amaryl), and the less commonly used chlorpropamide (Diabinese), tolazamide (Tolinase), and tolbutamide (Orinase)—works most successfully in those who have recently been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. Sulfonylureas are "pancreas stimulators" that cause the beta cells to release more insulin. They are generally inexpensive, and they reduce fasting blood glucose levels effectively. Side effects associated with their use include weight gain and hypoglycemia. Meglitinides and d-phenylalanine derivatives. There is one meglitinide on the market, repaglinide (Prandin), and one d-phenylalanine derivative, nateglinide (Starlix). These drugs are not sulfonylureas, but their mechanism of action closely resembles them. They stimulate the release of insulin from pancreatic beta cells, but they take effect more quickly, and their effects last for only a short amount of time. They are also most effective in people recently diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes, and they act to control postprandial blood glucose elevations. Either drug should be taken immediately before a meal; if you skip a meal, don't take a pill or you will risk hypoglycemia. If you have trouble maintaining a regular eating pattern, you may have a problem remembering to take these pills. Thiazolidinediones. Thiazolidinediones, often referred to as TZDs or glitazones, are insulin sensitizers, designed to help insulin work better in muscle and fat tissue while protecting insulin-producing beta cells from further damage. The first approved drug in this class, troglitazone (Rezulin), was removed from the market in 2000 because of reports of severe liver toxicity. The currently available TZDs, pioglitazone (Actos) and rosiglitazone (Avandia), have not been associated with this problem. Nonetheless, periodic liver function tests are still recommended for people taking either pioglitazone or rosiglitazone. Because the TZDs don't increase insulin secretion, they do not carry the risk of hypoglycemia. People who already use insulin may find that adding a TZD to their diabetes regimen may help to significantly reduce their daily insulin requirement. However, TZDs are costly, and significant weight gain has been reported with their use.
Special considerations During pregnancy, insulin has always been the treatment of choice for diabetes because oral medicines have long been thought to increase the risk of damage to the fetus. However, research into certain oral medicines (particularly glyburide and metformin) has led to their consideration as treatment for gestational diabetes and Type 2 diabetes during pregnancy. This is an area of controversy, however, and one in which a woman and her health-care team have to carefully weigh the risks and benefits together.
Getting the most from your medicines What should you do if you forget to take your diabetes pill or pills? As a general rule, you can take a missed dose of medicine as soon as you remember it. However, if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose, you may be advised to skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not take a double dose. Taking a missed dose of repaglinide or nateglinide between meals could result in hypoglycemia because these drugs stimulate the release of insulin from the pancreas. If you miss a dose of acarbose or miglitol, taking it between meals will have little effect, because its action is based on stopping the absorption of carbohydrate after eating. Instead, resume taking it at your next meal. Treating diabetes is an art grounded in science. Work with your diabetes team to choose and use the oral medicine or combination of oral medicines that works best for your situation. You may want to consider the cost of the drug and the number of times per day you have to take it, as well as side effects and possible interactions with any other drugs you may take. Fortunately, today's diabetes toolbox is well stocked with options to help you reach your blood glucose targets!

TechRadar Pro landed on Seagate's booth at CeBIT 2014 earlier today to check out the just-announced BigFoot Object Storage solution from German manufacturer Rausch. The first question that I put to them was about the BigFoot name. BigFoot, for those who remember, was a hard disk family owned by Quantum who was then acquired by Maxtor, who was then absorbed by Seagate

Most accurate iPhone 6 concept visual yet

If we have learned anything it is that when you see a concept of an upcoming smartphone, more often than not they never look anything like the final design. A fine example of this is with the Samsung Galaxy S5, although because Samsung had promised a radical design change it was obvious that this would spark off some rather interesting renders

UConn point guard Shabazz Napier talks about the grind of practice on Tuesday, Oct. 29 as the team prepares for game action. (Dom Amore/The Hartford Courant)
STORRS – For some it will be the first go-around, for some it will be the last. The lights will go on at Gampel Pavilion on Wednesday night and the Huskies will be on stage to start a new season.
"The lights are on, you get to smell the popcorn," coach Kevin Ollie said. "The fans will be here. It's different than scrimmaging or just practicing, and I'm looking forward to how guys will respond."
UConn, with great expectations both inside and outside its walls, begins again with an exhibition game against Southern Connecticut, an experienced and competitive Division II team, at 7 p.m. It will be broadcast in WTIC-FM 96.5 (WTIC-AM has the Red Sox game).
For freshmen Kentan Facey, Terrence Samuel and Amida Brimah, it will their first time suiting up as Huskies.
"The older guys have told us that by the first TV timeout, our lips are going to be chapped and white and we're going to be exhausted," Facey said. "It's going to be a challenge and I'm ready for that challenge."
Facey, 6 feet 9, has already been through his first college trial. He was in limbo for three months as the NCAA reviewed his eligibility, examining his academic path from Jamaica to the U.S. They could have ruled him ineligible as a freshmen and taken away up to two years eligibility, but after their review granted him a waiver and he will have the full four years.
"I told him to keep his head and keep working," said junior Ryan Boatright, who sat through two NCAA reviews during his freshman year. "The NCAA can prolong whatever they're doing for as long as they want to. You keep working, and that's what he did. He worked hard, he paid attention to the plays and now he's cleared and he's ready."
Facey was so happy when he got the good news last Thursday, he kicked a chair across the room. "I told him to take it out on the opponent," Ollie said.
The Huskies, 20-10 last season, were not eligible for the postseason. This year, they're playing for titles, in the new American Athletic Conference, as well as the NCAA. At this early stage, Ollie set two goals.
"Tempo, " he said. "We want to have a tempo and dominate the backboards."
Facey, Brimah, 7-0, sophomore Phil Nolan, 6-10, and senior Tyler Olander, 6-10, will all be fighting for frontcourt minutes and the way to Ollie's good graces leads up through the rebounding column. UConn was out-rebounded by 5.5 a game last season.
"I'm looking for one guy to step up and separate himself," Ollie said. "I'd like for two, or three or four to separate themselves, but if no one does, we'll do it by committee. We don't have a rotation set; the guys who play with the passion and the ability to give us a chance to win are going to play."
Ollie said he will start veterans against Southern, which would mean Shabazz Napier and Ryan Boatright in the backcourt, Omar Calhoun, DeAndre Daniels, Olander or perhaps Niels Giffey, also a senior, up front.
From the freshmen, "I'll be looking for guys to do the small things that don't always show up in the box score," Ollie said. "That's how you'll get into the rotation."
The Owls, who were 17-10 last season, have a similar cast and style for their own level, with young big men, experienced guards like Greg Langston and Tylon Smith, and fast-paced mentality.
"If we can hold it together," coach Mike Donnelly said, "play through adversity, play through the physical contact, I'd consider it a successful game for us."
Napier spoke for a lot of the older Huskies when he said, after four weeks of practices, he's anxious to get out on the court against an opponent. "I enjoy practice," Napier said, "but this is more competitive."
"It's a lot different when the lights go on," Giffey said. "The young guys are going to have to go out and prove themselves. I remember being very excited and not thinking too much about basketball, which was a mistake. You have to just get out there, get as comfortable as you can and just play basketball. In the end, everybody has to experience it for themselves."

Leonora POETRY—The Music of Language A Department Dertyted To Vcrae and iti Fundamental Prin^lcs Condocieil by C J. GREENLEAF REMORSE OFTEN FOLLOWS RASHNESS Continental Europe, seems on the verge of a bloody tmivereal war. Thinking, awakened people stand agast at the ti^rrihle prospect. A half century ago this Union was In the throes of a migbty civil strife. Fifty yeara peen not long to the aged, but almost a cycle of eternity to the young.. To them, that war Is only history. To those who passed through the conflict, the scenes, experiences and impres¬ sions are more vivid than the events of yesterday. And perhaps tbe most profound impress that was stamped in the yielding wax of the minds of the young men and hoys who seemed in either army, was to end and alwaya aviod war in all Its phase uniei^s. Indeed, it be in the denfense of Home and Country. To carry out this leda, and as one of tbe fast vanisli- Ing hosts Of that Grand Army. I have made a^radical departure for this single iscue In the matter furnished for this department. Tbe "plea, of the Veterans" may need a further word of explanation. In Arlington Ceme- tury, near Washington, Is a huge boulder. On Its face is graven— "Beneato^ thla stone repase the bones of 2111 unknown soidier^i;. They were gathered after the war, from th battle flld of Bull Run, and on tbe route to the Rappahannock'***—It Is called "The Mounment to the Un¬ known" General Thomas, the soldier's "Old Gap" "The Rock ot Huraanga." "Old Gihby," Oeneral Thomas Gibbons, one of the noble soldiers that commanded the famous "Iron Brigade." Tbe fighting qualities of tbis brigade gave them a world wide celebrity. At the first days flght at Gettysburg, they did much*lo save the day, holding the rebles in ciiecli until tbe Uion Army could arrive, of one regiment in this Brigade, the 24th Michigan, I quote from official sources; "This regiment had the larg¬ est number of casiuilltes of any that fought at eGttsburg . It entered the fight with 27 officers and 468 men. Three fourths of its number were struck down. For the assault on Peterburg, it mustered only 120 meu. It total of killed and wounded was 589 and 30 of it.s. members died in Confederfite prisons." It Is the duty of the First Seargeant to call the company s roll every ulght. He rattle.s oft the names In alphabetical order like the sharp barking of a revolver, and the soldier respond "Here, here," like the yeeping of a hungry pack of wolves rapidly as be calls the names, he knows if a single one falls to respond. Indeed his eyes search every man, for h knows the roll by heart. "Uncle Billy," of the famous epi-v gram? Gi^neral WilUam T. Sherman. A grand statue of hini standi al tbe plaza, one of tbe entrances to Central Park. THE PLEA OF THE VETERANS The sun is hid In heaven and the moon is streaiied witli biood, The long roll again Is beaten, the nations' roused for war. Our Europe it Is rolling like a vast and mighty flood, The German French ann Engli.sh and the cold and civil Czar. .-T'he Jingoes Jibe and chuckee and boast in fooli.sh glee. But they never marched with Sherman from Atlantic to tlie Sea. Hot with passion, swayed by feeling, they march to rolling drums. The cave man.is even walling, reason abdicates her thorne. But the mothers, wives and chlldern, with horror striclcen dumb, For the eagle is unlashed and the dove has homeward iluwn., 1 hear a leering trader hinting of the game and loot, But he never saw the borrows of the Rappahannoclc Route. Summon all the terrors that come by land or sea, Famine, plague and pestilence -all that men abhor. In a single word now gr^up theni, with flaming lettres three; Like a white hot brand they're gleaming In the awful thing called WAR. They sing to me of glory, but I think of Cbancellorville, Of Gettysburg, the wlldness, and draem of Malvener Hill. There's s line of slender blue of tho good old flghting stoclc, Not a jingo sighs for war at their Iptiful parade, Thc-y're glad they knew old pap, Chicanauga's solid rock, It was good to serve with IGbby in the flghting Iron Brigade. "We are waiting for the Seargeant to call the final roll. Write your message, comrade, on a living lasting scroll; — For my chlldern, O, I pray thee, to ancient prophets word, Conflned by every nation, yet the truth they all deny, , Graven deei^ In lasting tsone, the message of the oLrd! 'He who llveth by the sword, by the sword must surely flic' Heed the lesson, O. my children. Our Country, heed it well. Uncle Billy knew the answer when he said tkhat 'War was Hell.' " C. J.GREENLEAF. AND THEY ALL KT W lOOSEmT Subjects of Newipapaper Storic aixl Reporter Under Same Roof It is seldom that coincidence brings together In the same hous^ the prin- clple flgures in the news of a section and a reporter, yet that is just exactly what happened in Roosevelt tbe other day, and the occurrence might ne\aer bave been brought to th public atten¬ tion had it not been for a remark in¬ adequately dropped by the reporter. The persons included in this rather remarkable meeting were Dif. Edwin aCrman, of Freeport, whose name has appeared in the headlines of newspa¬ pers for more than -a month; John Holliday, more recently concerned with a domestic trouble in which there was sensational features and Mrs. Mable T. Jackson, correspondeiit of the Brooklyn Daily Times in Freeport and Vicinity. The scone was the home of Charles Edwards, Sr.. wbo is affec¬ tionately known as the Poet Laureate Ol Run Pint." It appears taht there was ilhu'ss in the Edwards home. Dr. aCrmau was sent lor. Holliday has heen a board¬ er there since his wife left him after tlie trouble with his own boarder two weeks ago, and Mrs. Jackson is also living at the house. Tho unusual cir- cunptances didn't seem to bother a soual. The doctor visited with the fiimily and members of the household aud then went away probably with¬ out a second thought of the meeting. CELEBTATES BIRTHDAYjAT BEACH PARH Friends of Miss Southard Sail to Point Lookout—Dine on Shore Miss Dorothy Southard daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Southard, of Grand avenue, Baldwin, gave a beach and birthday party recently to her young friends at the Southard cottage at Point Lookout.

LONG ISLAND'S COMMUTER ARMY Its Notable Yearly Increase Shows Growth—Freeport Still Leads Probably evidence of tbe growth of Long Island is so strong as tbat shown by the statistics of the Long Island Railroad in its monthly summary of the number of commuters from its nu¬ merous viUiages and hamlets which bas just been received for the months of July, for it shows a steady if not a startUng Increase. In the compari- tlve table iMiich accompanies the omn. thly report^ given the total number of commutation tickets sold during tbe July month since 1909. In that year there were 15,503; In 1912 the number was increased to 22,- 114 and today there arc more than 2«,000. From the various villages of the South Side, particularly in the district bounded on tbe west by Valley Stream and to ttae east by Massapequa the several villages contributed these fol¬ lowing totals to ttae great commuter army: Valley Stream—173; Lyn¬ brook—554 ; RockvUle eCntre—779: Baldwin—220; Freeport—851; Mer¬ rick—^07; Bellmore—131; Wantagh— 63: Seaford—36; Massapequa—4 4.
