Since you are probably reading this a day after Halloween — a most sugary time of the year — I thought it might be a good time to review the benefits of good dental hygiene.
Halloween and Easter are the two times of year when I really have to be diligent at monitoring my sugar intake. I'm a sucker for jelly beans, and those cute, "fun size" candy bars are a temptation this time of the year.
I took a personal day last week and happened to catch the new version of the Regis and Kelly Show, now called "Live with Kelly and Michael" (Strahan). They were discussing the "Top 5" Halloween candy based on an Internet poll. The poll named Hershey Kisses No. 5, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups No. 4, Kit Kat Bars No. 3, Star Bursts No. 2, and Skittles No. 1.
It's always fun to hear this kind of thing. It's subjective — and that's the point. Sometimes there are some very emotional reactions. Even if you are a mindful eater, such as I am, we still can have some strong opinions about our favorite candy.
If I were ranking, I would name Gherardelli 75 percent cocoa squares as my favorite. My No. 2 would be Reese's, and No. 3 Kit Kat Bar. However, what I eat most often, about once a week, is a small size York Peppermint Patty from the Jameson Hostess Shop. It's the much healthier choice when I need a little sweet.
By the way, just talking about this stuff can make you crave it, so I'll have you know that I was smart enough to have a Honey Crisp apple, which I ate, during the writing of this to curb that urge to grab a candy bar!
Now that I've loaded this column with sugar, let's talk teeth. The American Dental Association would advise that we avoid excessive consumption of sugary treats. Remember that with your kids, or with yourself, when choosing to eat sugar it is important to brush teeth as soon as possible to lessen the amount of time the sugar is in the mouth.
Brushing teeth also comes with some guidelines. Dentists suggest that you invite kids to pick out their own toothpaste or gels, and their own color or design of tooth brushes. They will be more likely to brush if they get involved. Young children should have adult supervision to make sure they are brushing properly.
Halloween is actually a perfect time to get a new toothbrush. It is generally recommended that you replace your toothbrush every three to four months.
With children it is important to monitor their candy consumption and one good suggestion is that you keep the Halloween candy out of reach until a designated snack time so that you can make sure that teeth are brushed right after. This keeps the impact on the teeth minimal.
Another guideline is to remember that taffy, caramel, gummy bears and other sticky candy can adhere to teeth and can lead to tooth decay.
If you choose candy after a meal, you are less hungry and won't tend to over indulge. Also, you may want to chew sugarless gum after eating sugary treats because it has a washing effect due to an increase in saliva production while chewing.
If you don't have sugar-free gum, just rinsing your mouth with water has some benefit in preventing tooth decay.
Right up there with candy, dentists also warn about the danger of sugary sodas. There are more than 10 teaspoons of sugar in a 12-ounce can of soda, and many are acidic enough to dissolve tooth enamel. Once again, chewing sugar-free gum or rinsing the mouth can be essential to preventing decay.

The case is strong and sleek. It protects the phone but doesn't make the phone 3x bigger. I am very happy with it and my husband has a lifeproof case that he doesn't like. This one is worth every penny.
Excellent purchase excellent costumer service just what I was looking for I absolutely recommend this product and seller.
The case seems pretty protective, and I liked the color choices. However, I could not get the case on for the life of me, plus the lock button is very hard to use in this case. I will continue to use it, but it's definitely not my favorite case. But for the cost, not a bad option.

HU gets first win of season
The Foresters (1-1) shot 61% in the second half to pull away from the Cardinals of Concordia University and notched their first victory of the season with the 67-57 win in the opening game of the Huntington AmeriHost Tournament.
The Foresters jumped out to a 7-1 lead in the early going and were able to maintain a 4-5 point cushion most of the half. Concordia held a brief lead at 21-20 with just under four and a half minutes to play, but Huntington closed out the half on an 8-3 run to take a 28-24 lead at the break. Both teams went 9-27 from the field in the first half with the Foresters earning their lead with a 9-9 performance at the charity stripe.
In the second half, the lead seesawed back and forth through the first seven minutes of play. With the score knotted at 37-37 with 13 minutes to play, Huntington gained the momentum with an 8-0 run over a three minute stretch. The Foresters pushed the margin to 10 on three occasions and had a 60-50 advantage with 5:46 left to play. Concordia then put together a 7-0 run capped by two free throws from Jackie Marr with 1:52 on the clock. On Huntington's next possession, the Foresters worked the ball around using 26 seconds of the shot clock before they found Kendra Stahl open at the top. Stahl nailed the three to push the Foresters' lead back to six at 63-57 with 1:26 to go. Concordia's Katie Schweiger missed a three at the other end and the Cardinals were forced to foul. Amy Berry and Lauren Davenport both knocked down two free throws in the final minute of play to seal Huntington's win.
Berry led all scorers in the game with 18 points. Davenport chipped in 13 points and five boards and Amy Wanemacher came off the bench with a 10-point and 5-rebound performance for the Foresters. Richelle Gerstenberger led Concordia with 16 points and Marr added 15 points and a game-high eight rebounds.
After shooting 61% in the second half, Huntington finished the game at 46% (23-50) and went 19-20 from the line for 95%. The Cardinals shot 36% (19-53) for the game and hit 13-15 free throws for 87%.
In the second game of the evening, it was the Ohio Dominican Panthers that outlasted the Trinity Christian Trolls 61-57. Ohio Dominican's Krissy Haines took game-high honors with 30 points and 11 boards. Emily Thomasson led the Trolls with 20 points.
Tomorrow's consolation game will pit Trinity Christian against Concordia at 1:00 p.m. and Huntington will face off with Ohio Dominican in the championship game at 3:00 p.m.

April 26, 2012
Amtrak is creating a new Emergency Management and Corporate Security department to integrate existing company-wide efforts into a single, cohesive unit to more effectively prepare for emergencies and disasters, mitigate their effects, and allow for fast and efficient response and recovery.
"The new team will identify opportunities to strategically coordinate, train, and put into practice consistent and efficient response and recovery efforts to better ensure the safety and security of our customers and employees," said Amtrak President/CEO Joe Boardman.
There are eight emergency management-related functions currently located in various Amtrak departments. These functions will be integrated into the new department whose primary focus is emergency preparedness, continuity of operations and corporate security risk strategy. Combining these functions will provide a framework in which to plan for, respond to and recover from incidents while also establishing and maintaining a uniform corporate security strategy.
Susan Reinertson, who currently oversees the Amtrak recovery and resiliency exercise program as well as continuity of operations planning, will lead the new department. She has a background in homeland security and emergency management consulting as well as leadership experience at the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

With spring just around the corner and the blossoms starting to bloom it's high time to plan my spring wardrobe essentials. It was an absolutely beautiful day here in Northern Italy: with almost 16 degrees I was able to wear my first spring outfit. The base is a flirty multicolored A-line skirt made from 100% silk. This extraordinary vintage Lancetti couture fashion fabric was produced by Taroni , one of the oldest silkweaving mills in Como, a company founded in 1880 and famous throughout the world as synonymous of luxury, elegance and quality of its fabrics.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
Not a good school. Small, filthy, not funded, awful teachers. Only few teachers are good in bravo but other than that no. My son who is in honors saids how unfair and bad the grading system is. There are no good sports and no field for the kids the play in, how are the kids going to be healthy without a place to play in? The field is only about the size of a gym swimming pool, that's how small it is. Especially dr.pace, perez, fetti and sepulveda are one of the worst teachers. I do not recommend this school.
Dr. Pace, 9th grade teacher. I think she is mentally sick / unstable. She don't know, what she is taking to student. Dr.Pace might give her a U in cooperation. Please talk to her about her policies and her teaching habits. It will appreciated to observe what she is doing in her class.
I am truly pleased with this school. The teachers are great overall (there are a few challenges-like at all schools.) They have a great parent Booster Club that raises money for scholarships. They are a close knit community school and my son has made some great friends along the way. Some things I would like changed: More support for the Cross Country and Track teams, Principal and Vice Principals listening and RESPONDING to parents (even when its an offer of help), meetings during hours that working parents can attend (late evening/after 5pm), ideally a gymnasium and football/baseball stadium to expand the sports program. Overall, I am really enjoying having my son at Bravo.
I am currently attending Bravo as a freshmen. I must let you know that Bravo is overcrowded but the teachers are great! Most students start taking Advanced Placement classes in sophomore year. However, there are some freshmen who have AP Biology and Honors classes. A lot of freshmen have Honors classes there are a few who have only honors biology and no honors english. It is a fun experience at Bravo with new friends & old ones , as well. There are many clubs! Such as : Filipino club , Paranormal , Mentoring , Hands and Paws, Random Acts of Kindness, One in Christ , Club MD , Stand Up for Cancer, Knights Against Diabetes and much , much more. Most teachers are friendly and the students are all unique in their own way. Lockers are randomly checked by the dean and there are random class searches. I have been checked twice, in my locker and class. There are sport teams like, Basketball (boys) & (girls) , Soccer (girls) & (boys) , Track , Volleyball (girls) & (boys) and Softball for girls- Future Graduate of Class Of 2016 !
This is a really good school. If you want to pursue a medical career, this is the best school to go to. :)
I am Class of 11 Loved it. Great school best school ever for medical field and also series students that care about there education.!
i am an eight grader and i am thinking of becoming an doctor but also learning how to play drums most high schoolers say i should go to torres or wilson which one would be right for me. thx
I attended Bravo from 2007 to 2011. It is a wonderful school with many opportunities to get involved with the local community as well as USC. Thanks to Bravo I am proud to say I will be attending the University of Pennsylvania this fall on a full Gates Millennium Scholarship. I was the excellent education and wonderful opportunities that Bravo afforded me that allowed me to win such a competitive scholarship. Bravo is a place for serious students with serious teachers who really want the best for their students. Please do go to Bravo if you are high motivated and have goals. It is not only for the medically oriented but for all who want a strong STEM education. Bravo is awesome!
helpful teachers and workshops! a bit overcrowded(but it's due to budget). prepares students well for college.nice counselors. overall friendly environment.
My daughter is a graduate of Bravo H.S. The academic curriculum, along with the AP classes that were offered to her prepared her well for her current success at Occidental (she is now finishing up her Junior year). In my opinion, this school is for those students who are serious about furthering their education and going onto college. Students who are motivated and disciplined and who work in partnerships with their teachers. If you are a student considering going to this school and you possess these attributes - you will succeed. Good luck!
This school has done a lot better in the past. However I think that the actual learning experience however has gone down along with the economy. Don't get me wrong, the teachers are great! but they can only do so much with sooooo many students. I have to agree with the other review, the school is way too overcrowded and the amount of one on one time during class with the teacher is slim to none. So a lot of this learning must take place independently or outside of the classroom.
This school is horrible.Dont send your children here. it is way to overcrowded. teachers give way too much hw. its horrible.
It is a good academic school. It is a small school which took time to get used to, and is very diverse. So it is a good cultural experience. If you would like to join a football team this is not the school for you and transportation is a hasle sometimes especially afterschool, but it is a good school.
it is a cool school with many advances in any subject there is music, foreign language ,AVID and many things more. I really recommend this school
I attended Bravo from 2002-2006. Bravo is an excellent school to send your children if they are interested in the Medical Field. They offer a wide range of programs such as STAR and the Nursing Program. Additionally, it's proximity to 2 hospitals (both at a walking distance) give's student's the best exposure to health related fields. It's also very culturally diverse. The Teacher's are awesome! ( some were not as good, but as It was mentioned before, the 'good' teachers outweigh the 'bad' teachers) Classes most definitely prepare you for college. I was also part of the AVID program, which along with Bravo's competitive curriculum, prepared me well for college.
I went to bravo high in 2000 to 2004. I would recomend to all parents to encourage their children to attend if interested in the medical field.
I am a former student of Bravo. I attended the first year it opened. I have children of my own now and i look forward to them attending Bravo. Bravo has wonderful teachers who are i was lucky enough to know some of who are still faculty there. Bravo is a school focused on academics and as a parent who wants my children to succeed that is what is most important. If you attend this school thinking because it is a small school you can do whatever you want and not work hard you are mistaken. Some people look at high school as a time to play around instead of concentrating on their futures if that is what you are looking for then yes you are looking at the wrong school, however if you want to succeed in life i suggest you take a second look at bravo.
Im a former student @ bravo it is the worst school i have ever been to in my life. I had no choice but to transfer out the school lacks activities, very small,lack of diversity. If you go outside just to walk to burg king or someting be aware that there are a few gangs,so the safety is bad and the location. I cant recall anyonewho lived next to the place so dont think bout staying after school unles u want to be home by 8-9. The teachers are all jerks i cant really recall a nice1.Pep there are not smart, if you want your child to go here bcause the school has high scores dont be foled.

Jan Dismas Zelenka
This article needs additional citations for verification. (May 2013) |
Jan Dismas Zelenka (baptised Jan Lukáš Zelenka; 16 October 1679 – 23 December 1745),[1] previously also known as Johann Dismas Zelenka, was the most important Czech baroque composer. His music is admired for its harmonic inventiveness and counterpoint.
Zelenka was born in Louňovice pod Blaníkem, a small market town southeast of Prague, in Bohemia. the eldest of the eight children born to Marie Magdalena (née Hájek) and Jiří Zelenka. The middle name Dismas is probably his confirmation name.[2] His father was a schoolmaster and organist there; nothing more is known with certainty about Zelenka's early years. He received his musical training at the Jesuit college Clementinum in Prague.[3] His instrument was the violone (or bass viol). His first works, all oratorios, were written in his Prague student days.
Zelenka served Baron Hartig, the imperial governor resident in Prague, before his appointment as violone player in Dresden's royal orchestra around 1710. His emigration from Bohemia, for unknown reasons which have been speculated about, was most likely sudden. Some monographs give various personal reasons why he left, but the truth is still unknown. His first opus in Dresden was a Mass, the "Missa Sanctae Caeciliae" (c. 1711).[4]
Zelenka continued his education in Vienna under the august Habsburg Imperial Kapellmeister Johann Joseph Fux beginning in 1716, he was back in Dresden by 1719. Whether or not he ever went to Venice is unclear, but a Saxon court document of 1715 records a royal cash advance for such a journey to Zelenka along with fellow composers Christian Petzold and Johann Georg Pisendel.
Except for a trip back to Prague in 1723, where Zelenka conducted the première of another new major work of his, Sub olea pacis et palma virtutis, he remained in Dresden. While in Prague he concentrated on instrumental composition, as the autograph of the score of Concerto à 8 concertanti confirms: "Six concerti written in a hurry in Prague in 1723".
Back in Dresden, he started as assistant to Kapellmeister Johann David Heinichen but gradually took over Heinichen's responsibilities as the latter's health declined. After Heinichen died in 1729, Zelenka applied for the now-vacant post of Kapellmeister but it was given instead (in 1733) to eminent opera composer Johann Adolf Hasse, reflecting the court's fashionable interest in opera as opposed to the liturgical music that was Zelenka's forte. Instead, in 1735, Zelenka was given the title of "church composer" – "Compositeur of the Royal Court Capelle" which none other than (Johann Sebastian Bach himself had applied for in 1733 and did in fact receive it in 1736, replacing Zelenka, who was again disappointed by the court's decision; but despite this he continued to compose assiduously. Such social failures might have turned him inward to exercise his free creative spirit and produce innovative work with unique qualities.[5]
J.S. Bach held Zelenka in high esteem, as evidenced by a letter of 13 January 1775 from his great son C.P.E. Bach to Bach biographer Johann Nikolaus Forkel. Zelenka was actually a guest in Bach's Leipzig home at one point. Bach thought enough of Zelenka to have some of his works copied; e.g. he had his eldest son, Wilhelm Friedemann, copy out the Amen from Zelenka's third Magnificat (ZWV 108) for use in Leipzig's St. Thomas's church where J.S. Bach was cantor for the last 2 1/2 decades of his life.[3]
In addition to composing Zelenka taught throughout his life, instructing a number of prominent musicians of that time, e.g. Johann Joachim Quantz (Frederick the Great of Prussia's longtime court flautist and flute teacher), J. G. Barter and J. G. Roellig. His close friends included eminent composers Georg Philipp Telemann, Johann Georg Pisendel and Sylvius Leopold Weiss.
Zelenka died of dropsy in Dresden on December 23, 1745, and was buried on Christmas Eve. His last works were never performed in his lifetime. He never married and had no children; his compositions and musical estate were purchased from his beneficiaries by Electress of Saxony Maria Josepha of Austria, and after his death were closely guarded (in contrast to their lack of appreciation when he was alive) and considered valuable court possessions. Telemann, with Pisendel's assistance, tried unsuccessfully to publish Zelenka's "Responsoria". He wrote on the 17 April 1756, with undisguised contempt for publishers' disinterest in the work, that "the complete manuscript will be at the Dresden court, kept under lock and key as something very rare...".
There is no confirmed portrait of Zelenka, but worthy of mention is a mirror-image black-and-white copy of a well-known portrait of his old teacher Fux which has been passed off as a picture of Zelenka on several respected websites.
Musical style[edit]
Zelenka's pieces are characterized by very daring compositional structure, with a highly spirited harmonic invention and perfection of the art of counterpoint. His works are often virtuosic and difficult to perform, but always fresh and surprising, with sudden turns of harmony, being always a challenge for their interpreters. In particular, his writing for bass instruments is far more demanding than that of other composers of his era. His instrumental works (the trio sonatas, capricci, and concertos) are exemplary models of his early style (1710s–1720s). The six trio sonatas demand high virtuosity and expressive sensitivity from performers. As Zelenka was himself a violone player, he was known to write fast-moving continuo parts with driving and complicated rhythm.
Zelenka was aware of the music in different regions of Europe. He wrote complex fugues, ornate operatic arias, galant-style dances, baroque recitatives, Palestrina-like chorales, and virtuosic concertos. Zelenka's musical language is closest to Bach's, especially in its richness of contrapuntal harmonies and ingenious usage of fugal themes. Nevertheless, Zelenka's language is idiosyncratic in its unexpected harmonic twists, obsession with chromatic harmonies, huge usage of syncopated and tuplet figures, and unusually long phrases full of varied musical ideas. He is sometimes considered as Bach's Catholic counterpart, in his works.
Zelenka's music is influenced by Czech folk music. In this respect, he continues the tradition of the production of specific Czech national music, initiated by Adam Michna z Otradovic and brought to its culmination later, in works by Bedřich Smetana, Antonín Dvořák and Leoš Janáček.
In 2013 Damian Thompson wrote of Zelenka, "He belongs to a band of mavericks in musical history whose experiments with harmony seem to catapult them into another generation".[6]
The rediscovery of Zelenka's music[edit]
The rediscovery of Jan Dismas Zelenka's work is attributed to Bedřich Smetana, who rewrote some scores from the archives in Dresden and introduced one of the composer's orchestral suites in Prague's New Town Theatre festivals in 1863.
It was mistakenly assumed that many of Zelenka's autograph scores were destroyed during the fire-bombing of Dresden in February 1945. However, the scores were not kept in the Katholische Hofkirche but in the basement of the Japanese Palace, north of the river Elbe. Some are certainly missing, but this probably happened gradually – and the lost scores represent only a small proportion of his extant works.
The interest in Zelenka's music has begun to grow, especially since the end of the 1950s. By the late 1960s and early 1970s all Zelenka's instrumental compositions and selected liturgical music were published in Czechoslovakia. The most important revival was demonstrated by the first presentation of selected compositions by Czech conductor Milan Munclinger and his ensemble Ars Rediviva. They were three trio sonatas in 1958–60, Sinfonia concertante in 1963 and the exquisite interpretation of "Lamentationes Jeremiae prophetae" with soloists Karl Berman, Nedda Casei and Theo Altmeyer in 1969. The music of Zelenka has become widely known and available since that time, through recordings and sparked the interest of musicians such as, Milan Munclinger (above), Heinz Holliger and Reinhard Goebel.
More than half of Zelenka's works have now been recorded, mostly in the Czech Republic and Germany. Such recordings include the masses Missa Purificationis, Missa Sanctissimae trinitatis, Missa votiva, Missa Sancti Josephi, and his secular works "Sub olea pacis" and "Il Diamante", mostly performed by new Czech ensembles using original instruments and interpretational techniques of the Baroque era - above all Musica Florea, Collegium 1704, Ensemble Inégal, and Capella Regia Musicalis.
In honor of Jan Dismas Zelenka, "The Autumn Music Festival under Blaník" (Podblanický hudební podzim in Czech) was founded in 1984. Since then, performances of Zelenka's music have regularly taken place in and around his birthplace.
Zelenka's complete compositions are listed in Wolfgang Reich's thematic catalogue Jan Dismas Zelenka: Thematisch-systematisches Verzeichnis der musikalischen Werke (ZWV)[7] ("Systematic thematic catalogue of musical works") and in Janice Stockigt's monograph Jan Dismas Zelenka: A Bohemian Musician at the Court of Dresden.[8]
The total number of Zelenka's known and attributed opus numbered works is 249. Sacred vocal-instrumental music is at the center of his compositions, and include over 20 masses, four extensive oratorios and requiems, two Magnificats and Te Deum settings, 13 litanies, many psalms, hymns, antiphons. Zelenka also wrote a number of purely instrumental works – six trio or quartet sonatas, five capricci, one "Hipocondrie" as well as Concertos, Overtures and Symphonies.
Sacred music[edit]
The most appreciated of Zelenka's sacred works are probably his masses, above all his Missa Purificationis (ZWV 16, his last mass to include brass instruments) and his final five pieces (ZWV 17–21), commonly called "High Mass" compositions, written between 1736 and 1741 and considered as Zelenka's compositional peak. The last three were also called "Missae ultimae" (Last Masses). The following list contains only the most important sacred works, that have been sufficiently explored to date.

Secular works[edit]
Zelenka composed only a few extensive vocal-instrumental pieces on secular themes, but one of them – Sub olea pacis et palma virtutis--Melodrama de St. Wenceslao (1723) – not only represents one of the high points in baroque music, but transcends it, as with many others of Zelenka's works. It is a monumental opus with aspects of melodrama, oratory and contemporary opera, composed for the coronation of Charles VI by the Czech king and celebrating the memory of the greatest Czech saint and patron of Bohemia, prince St. Wenceslaus (Václav), one of the founders of the Czech state.

David Chobar gave presentations at a World Future Society global conference
Dr. David Chobar, associate professor of education, gave two presentations this summer at the World Future Society global conference in Minneapolis, Minn.
Chobar led a session at the World Future Society's annual conference and was also invited to be one of only five presenters at the society's all-day forum on best practices immediately following the conference.
Both presentations focused on a freshman class he teaches at Morningside called "Composition and Communication: The Future Ain't What it Used to Be."
Three Morningside students were part of Chobar's presentation at the annual conference. Garrett Smith of Sioux City; Steven Hadley of Sioux Center, Iowa; and Evan Mann of Lincoln, Neb., answered questions about the course and each presented a research paper written in Chobar's class.
Chobar has been a member of the faculty at Morningside since 2004. He teaches freshman foundations of education, secondary methods courses, and supervises student teachers. This is the third year in a row he has been a presenter at the World Future Society's annual conference.
The World Future Society was formed in 1966 as a nonprofit, nonpartisan educational and scientific association to act as a neutral forum and clearinghouse for information and ideas about current trends and possible developments in the future. It now includes 25,000 members in more than 80 countries.

The great northwest of the U.S. is known for its natural beauty. It's also a high-tech region with a highly educated public – not exactly the kind of place one would expect to fall for the anti-science rhetoric of the anti-vaccine movement.
But it has. The anti-vaxxers have convinced a frighteningly high number of parents in Washington State to withhold vaccines from their children. A story in The Seattle Times last year reported that
"Washington [state] parents are choosing not to vaccinate their kindergartners at a rate higher than anywhere else in the country."
This despite the fact that the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (formed by the founder of Microsoft Microsoft, which is headquartered in Seattle) is one of the world's leading sponsors of vaccine research.
When the vaccination rates drop, everyone becomes more vulnerable to infectious diseases. When more than 90% of the population is vaccinated, we have "herd immunity" – this means the disease can't spread because there aren't enough susceptible people in the community. So the high rate of vaccine refusal in Washington makes it easier for whooping cough (and other diseases) to spread.
The media has been complicit in spreading some of the anti-vaccine misinformation. Sometimes it comes straight from the media itself, such as the CBS reporter Sharyl Attkisson, who has repeatedly and persistently reported on the purported link between vaccines and autism long after such a link was widely discredited.* Other times it comes from talk shows, magazines, or even airline advertisements that provide a platform for anti-vax celebrity doctors such as Jay Gordon (who gained fame as Jenny McCarthy's son's doctor) and "Dr. Bob" Sears, who has published his own "alternative" vaccine schedule in a book filled with anti-vaccine nonsense. These characters continue to claim, at every chance they get, that vaccines cause autism (as Gordon has said, repeatedly), or that they cause other harms, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. They use their medical degrees and their faux concern "for the children" to frighten parents into keeping their kids unvaccinated.
And now we learn that the U.S. is in the midst of the worst whooping cough epidemic in 70 years. One of the most hard-hit states is Washington, which the CDC just announced (on 20 July) has suffered 2,520 cases so far this year, a 1300% increase over last year. This is the highest number of cases reported in Washington since 1942. This plot of the number of cases this year compared to last year shows the dramatic rise in infections:
Making things worse, it seems, is an increase in cases among children aged 13-14. Children get a booster shot at age 11-12, but the new outbreak indicates that the effectiveness of the booster may not last very long. The dramatic increase in whooping cough this year also suggests that the bacterium that causes it, Bordetella pertussis, is mutating to make the vaccine less effective. Nevertheless, the CDC emphasizes:
"Vaccination continues to be the single most effective strategy to reduce morbidity and mortality caused by pertussis. Vaccination of pregnant women and contacts of infants is recommended to protect infants too young to be vaccinated."
This good advice is seriously undermined when misinformed doctors such as "Dr. Bob" Sears directly advise pregnant women not to get the whooping cough vaccine, as he did in the Huffington Post. (Hint: it's a good rule to be very skeptical of celebrity doctors who go by their first name.)
I should also point out that whooping cough is a national problem, not just Washington State's. The U.S. has had over 17,000 cases this year, putting it on track for the worst year since 1959. The highest rate of infection in the nation is in Wisconsin (which has also been hit hard by anti-vaccine effects), followed by Washington and Montana. 10 deaths have been reported, mostly in infants who were too young to be vaccinated. For all this, we can thank the anti-vaccination movement.
*Note: Following a complaint from Sharyl Attkinson, this story has been updated to clarify my view of her vaccine-related reporting.
Nice poisoning the well fallacy Dr. Salzberg. Instead of actually showing where NVIC is incorrect you just make false statements about it in order to discredit what they say.
Nvic FactCheck ,
1. Noted that you were unable to provide a single example of NVIC condemning the use of death threats. Nor did you choose to do so here.
2. Noted that you ignore the fact that the "VIC" is complete BS and that NVIC calculation/conceptual errors have literally been pointed out for more than a decade.
3. Noted that you choose to ignore the words in the last paragraph of the court ruling that Fisher lost.
4. Noted that you choose not to offer a single example from NVIC that is scientifically accurate–apparently you couldn't find one.
5. Agreed that as a non-profit NVIC salaries can be obtained. It has been reported that Fisher has made far more money than Offit, but I don't have the actual numbers so I don't know if this is true or not. Your response makes it seem that it might be true.
6. Most people will have noticed that the Sharyl Attkisson link you provided is utter crap and explicitly dishonest. But you choose to listen to her rather than an ethicist–which is where you should go to understand if Offit's conduct was ethical or not.
7. What is completely clear is YOU choose not to consult with qualified attorneys about the SCOTUS ruling, ethicists about COI, toxicologists about the "VIC", etc, etc….
Even if you refuse to learn the facts, it doesn't change reality: NVIC has filled your head with complete BS. The prime example here is the SCOTUS ruling which if you made any good faith effort to understand, you can't help but see how dishonest the anti-vaccs are.
Notice the rhetoric here.
We started with Fisher's quote: "the U.S. Supreme Court shielded drug companies from ALL LIABILITY for harm caused by vaccines"
Now you post:
"This means if a claimant looses in the federal vaccine court they can not sue the manufacturer for design-defects"
This is correct–but that is very different from ALL LIABILITY.
The SCOTUS ruling upheld that one legal argument can not be made.
Everything else is still on the table. Any parent can sue for alleged vaccine injuries and demonstrate that the vaccine caused the injury.
Fact is that NVIC (and the anti-vaccs in general) have been grossly dishonest about the SCOTUS ruling, I suppose because they don't want parents reading the US Civil court cases….where the profound incompetence and obvious dishonesty of the anti-vaccs is clearly demonstrated
W&N, this is getting redundant. You only provided a portion of Fisher's quote, conveniently leaving out the last half of the sentence, apparently, in attempt to create a scenario to support your false claim that she is misrepresenting the court's finding. Her entire quote reads, "On February 22, 2011 the U.S. Supreme Court shielded drug companies from all liability for harm caused by vaccines mandated by government when companies could have made a safer vaccine. 1 " and notice the citation to the court ruling in this quote. http://tinyurl.com/czjhdyh
The supreme court's opinion is clear and Fisher's statements are completely in line with the media reports as to what the ruling was. Your continuance in trying to twist the ruling and NVIC's position on the ruling to create a so-called "lie" on NIVIC's part is a futile effort because the facts don't support your case. Any reasonable person can read the media reports, the ruling and Fisher's commentary and decide for themselves if it all lines up.
As to your list of ridiculous assertions and accusations, they are so unreasonable and without merit that they do not deserve a response but since you insist we will say this: NVIC has never engaged in threatening anyone and would never condone such behavior and we stand by the accuracy and truthfulness of all the information on our website.
W&N, you have been very aggressive over the last three days, in attempting to discredit NVIC and many of the individuals who have commented to this article. Your tone is very sarcastic and demeaning and most of your comments include accusations with little or no citations to support your claims or are outright misleading. When NVIC posts a comment we are clear as to the fact that it is NVIC commenting, yet you use a pseudonym. In the spirit of transparency and given the fact that you seem to have some vested interest in this debate why, not drop the cover and tell us all who you are?
At NVIC, we give consumers information that is not readily available to them so that they can understand risk and benefit as upheld by the informed consent ethic. We are not anti-vaccine and support educated decision making. We do not support a one-size fits all agenda or forced vaccination – that is different from being anti-vaccine. We are not responsible for the fact that vaccine dangers remain largely unquantified and unresearched, but we will never stop asking for that – in accordance with the federal law. We will never allow those facts and the faces of the injured to be ignored.
Our mission can be found at, http://www.nvic.org/about.aspx
National Vaccine Information Center – Your Health, Your Freedom, Your Choice
Mr. Salzberg, your comment consists of pure speculation and generalities, while others are posting statistics.
And NVICFactChecker posted quotes from the Wall Street Journal and the Seattle Times, with concrete info and even a quote from the CDC, and your response was just to hurl slurs at NVIC. That's baloney, not rational argument.
No Twyla,
As 9 pages of comments here demonstrate, the anti-vaccs simply are not up to the intellectual challenge of clicking on a hyperlink…..even when the exact words are pointed out to them….much less working through the words or the numbers….
Nvic FactCheck ,
You continue to be unconstrained by facts.
1. Ms Fisher's words are posted above and she was very clear using phrases such as:
"….shielded drug companies from all liability…"
"…there is no civil liability…." etc, etc…
You have grossly misrepresented the basic English meaning of Ms Fisher's words, apparently in an attempt to obfuscate the fact that once again Ms Fisher claims are unquestionably false.
2. You have also grossly misrepresented my words. I have asked for one example where you or where NVIC have condemned the anti-vacc use of death-threats on scientists and/or their children. You have not provided one example and you continue to choose not to condemn these actions.
The reflects entirely upon you.
3. Fact is that NVIC is a misinformation organization. You choose to refuse to take sensible actions like getting your science from qualified scientists.
I think this is because you know that such scientists will tell you that NVIC's positions are utter BS. "VIC" being the example above where NVIC simply is not truthful.
"We do not support a one-size fits all…"
Here is the vaccine schedule:
It is not one-size fits all. NVIC is too clueless to even read the vaccine schedule correctly.
NVIC is:
A person has to make a willful choose not to look at the facts to pretend otherwise.
W&N, States mandate vaccines for all children in order to access public education. The mandated schedule is the same for all children i.e. one-size-fits-all. NVIC is opposed to vaccine mandates. We believe in the right to informed consent and choice in all medical decision making.
We have provided through answers with many citations and references in this comment string. At this point let the reader decide who seems most credible and who has been most thorough in providing facts with citations and references. We have been transparent yet you still attempt to act as some voice of authority while hiding behind a pseudonym.
It is wise of you to retreat.
Meanwhile most Forbes readers will have noticed:
" States mandate vaccines for all children in order to access public education. The mandated schedule is the same for all children i.e. one-size-fits-all."
You argue by assertion. Let's check the facts….
Here is the Virginia public school mandates:
Look at that!
" Vaccines must be administered in accordance with the harmonized schedule of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, American Academy of Pediatrics, and American Academy of Family Physicians and must be administered within spacing and age requirements."
And anyone that follows the link at the Virginia site will find the harmonized schedule that has already posted…..where different vaccines are recommended to kids with different risk factors.
Fact is that NVIC is a stranger to the truth….literally too clueless to correctly read the mandated vaccine schedule.
"We have been transparent yet you still attempt to act as some voice of authority while hiding behind a pseudonym"
Dear person posting with a pseudonym, thanks for the irony.
If your intent was to publically humiliate yourself, you are succeeding admirably.
Meanwhile, anyone with the tiniest spark of reason can't help by figure out that since anyone can post here under any handle…that there is no way of knowing who is really posting regardless as to what handle they use.
Your criticism isn't just absurd, but it is predicated on having a remarkable inability to think clearly.
Maybe you should find some other hobby more inline with your talents…you might enjoy basket-weaving…

Holmes and Hughes
Pepperdine professor David Holmes embarks on a semester at the University of Kansas in the prestigious role of Langston Hughes Visiting Professor
David Holmes
When author and activist Langston Hughes was growing up in Lawrence, Kansas, in the early 1900s, the landscape of racial parity in America was bleak. Raised by his maternal grandmother in the small, rural town, Hughes was as proud of his heritage as he was enamored with language and literature, and married the two with a prolific bibliography of novels, plays, and poetry collections that tackled race and the human condition. His works include Not Without Laughter (1930), I Wonder as I Wander (1956), Montage of a Dream Deferred (1951), and Jericho-Jim Crow (1964).
Today, the University of Kansas honors Lawrence's famous former resident with the Langston Hughes Visiting Professorship—a position that attracts prominent or emerging ethnic minority scholars. Pepperdine English professor and director of African American Studies, David Holmes, was named the Langston Hughes Visiting Professor of Spring 2013, a position in which he will teach one undergraduate course on fiction, film, and music about the civil rights movement, and a graduate seminar exploring a few of the contemporary rhetorical, religious, political, and pedagogical implications of the civil rights movements.
We talk with Holmes about his appointment, what he is looking forward to about his time in Kansas, and Langston Hughes' impact on his life and career:
PEPPERDINE: This position has been held by many prominent scholars, how does it feel to be following in their footsteps as the Langston Hughes Visiting Professor?
DAVID HOLMES: To say I am honored would be a tremendous understatement. First, Langston Hughes was one of the premier literary artists and cultural critics of the 20th century. The scholars who have held this honor before me hail from the arts, humanities, social, and natural sciences. While I'm humbled by the invitation, I am encouraged by what this honor says about my teaching, professional service, and scholarship.
Langston Hughes
Has Langston Hughes' life and works had an influence on you? How so?
The range of Langton Hughes's works have inspired and intimidated me. Best known for poetry, he wrote plays, novels, short stories, essays, and two lengthy autobiographies. Hughes's talent for evoking universal sensibilities from his particular experiences as a black man cuts to the heart of what makes great literature. Most of us can't be Hughes but we can experience him, cuddle up to his greatness.
How did you decide what to explore in the two classes that you'll be teaching?
The civil rights movement remains a fertile ground for rhetorical, social, political, and pedagogical study. As an English Professor, I am interested in how certain historical movements are recreated in literature, film, and other forms of popular culture.
What are your thoughts on the role of African American Studies in higher education today?
African American Studies has undergone several changes since the 1960s. Unfortunately, some believe this collection of fields to be confined to protest history, cultural practices, or identity politics. African American Studies enriches our study of this nation precisely because this collection of fields speaks to the human condition on a multidisciplinary level. Since African American Studies remains a relatively underrepresented course of study, many misconceptions abound.
What are some of the most important issues and topics that need to be explored in African American studies today?
There are many issues related to African American Studies that could be explored. With the election and reelection of the first Black President, one issue must be what we mean by a post-racial society. Is post-racial synonymous with post-racism? Does the election of Obama mean that we as Americans have liberated ourselves from deeply entrenched cultural or even intellectual assumptions and institutional practices? How should living in a post-racial society shape the way we teach, research and serve, especially in a Christian university?
What are you hoping to bring back to our students at Pepperdine from this experience?
I plan on teaching a course on Hughes during the third summer session and the fall. I hope to bring the students insights into a man who contributed to the shaping of wider American literature and culture. Hughes belongs to all people.
For fun, what are you most looking forward to doing or seeing in Kansas?
Not freezing to death! There are some museums I want to visit and, of course, walk down the streets that Hughes walked.
Thank you for talking with us, David! Anything else you want to add?
I have taught at Pepperdine since 1993. This is my home. I look at my appointment as the Langston Hughes Professor at the University of Kansas as an honor for me and Pepperdine.
David G. Holmes is Professor of English and Director of African American Studies at Pepperdine University. The author of Revisiting Racialized Voice: African American Ethos in Language and Literature, some of his articles have appeared in College English, Rhetoric Review, and the award-winning anthology Calling Cards. His current interests include African American expressive culture, political rhetoric, political theology, religious rhetoric, and rhetorics of racism. His major project focuses on remapping the rhetorical narratives of the Birmingham mass meetings of 1963. A frequent presenter at the CCC and RSA, he has held offices in the Conference on College Composition and Communication and has served on the editorial board for the CCC journal. He recently received the Howard A. White Award for teaching excellence at Pepperdine.
The Langston Hughes Visiting Professorship was established at the University of Kansas in 1977 in honor of the African American poet, playwright and fiction writer who lived in Lawrence from 1903 to 1916. Over the years, the visiting professorship has attracted prominent or emerging ethnic minority scholars to the university campus, involving a broad range of disciplines and academic departments/schools.

Found January 26, 2013 on
Hoop Fantasies Fantasy Basketball Blog:
Ric Flair was held out of a tag team match in Japan due to "suspicion of deep vein thrombosis of the left foot," according to the Pro Wrestling Torch.
Deep vein thrombosis is the formation of a blood clot in a deep vein in the legs. The Torch reports that the Japanese wrestling promotion feared that "the blockage could have spread to his brain or heart if he competed."
Flair was supposed to team with Keiji Mutoh (the Great Muta) against Tatsumi Fujinami and Seiya Sanada. Flair's son, Reid, took his place and took the fall in the match.

For this New Sounds, listen to music inspired by the image of the plum blossom, China, or variations on the plum blossom. Hear a surprising acoustic piece by Greek composer Vangelis, also known for scoring "Chariots of Fire," from a 30 year old recording, "China." Also, Grammy Award winning composer, reed virtuoso and jazz master Yusef Lateef takes on the piece with Chinese globular flute.
Plus, the whale/dolphin-like strainings of guitarist Dean Magraw, as he magnetizes a Fender on his version of "Plum Blossom." And much more.

I would like to preview more than one line of the messages I receive, so I navigated to (Messages, Menu, Options, Message Display and Actions), and I set the preview length to 4 and saved the change; but only 1 line of the messages show up.
I rebooted, pulled the battery, resent service books, and tried other values (2 and 3); and the messages still only display one line.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

GPU-assisted computing is all the rage these days as Nvidia, AMD and Intel seek to explore the benefits of the GPU beyond rendering graphics.
For instance, Intel's new Sandy Bridge chips incorporate HD 2000 and HD 3000 processor graphics that's two times faster than Capella-based systems (review).
Nvidia is taking the opposite route, coupling their powerful GPUs with an ARM-designed processor on a single die, combining best of both worlds. And on Tuesday at the CES 2011 show in Las Vegas, AMD unveiled their next-generation processors, the Fusion accelerated processing units.
What's an accelerated processing unit (APU), anyway? AMD's official press release fails to explain the term in layman's terms and instead dazzles with a bunch of buzzwords.
What the company's doing here is they're basically incorporating multi-core CPU (x86) technology, a DirectX 11-capable discrete-level graphics and parallel processing engine onto a single die - that's an APU for you. So, APUs are like those Sandy Bridge chips or Nvidia's system-on-a-chips?
Well, yes and no - each technology has its advantages, but they're each architecturally different. Although an APU typically combines a CPU and GPU, it can include other units such as a video processing unit and other application-specific accelerators. Here's a nice little video AMD published to help explain how an APU works. See, you've just learned something new today.
Thanks for reading BSN*
