How NOT to Design Your API
In the raft of responses (and thankyou all, this was fabulous, helpful and entertaining in equal parts!), there were some definite patterns that I'd like to share with you, in no particular order.
The Patently Untrue 200 Response
This got plenty of mentions, and it's definitely a pet hate of mine!
A Consistent Case of Complete Inconsistency
These aren't all the same complaint but they are basically the same problem!
Documentation From a Parallel Universe
Is no documentation better than inaccurate documentation? I'm never really sure of the answer, but it does seem like a common problem.
So there you have it, the sins to avoid in your own APIs. If you've encountered any of these, please accept my condolences.
(Note: Opinions expressed in this article and its replies are the opinions of their respective authors and not those of DZone, Inc.)

The fabulous Fibonacci numbersThe most ubiquitous, and perhaps the most intriguing, number pattern in mathematics is the Fibonacci sequence. In this simple pattern beginning with two ones, each succeeding number is the sum of the two numbers immediately preceding it (1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, ad infinitum). Accessible and appealing to even the most math-phobic individual, this fun and enlightening book allows the reader to appreciate the elegance of mathematics and its amazing applications in both natural and cultural settings. |

Joelle Leandre: Duos with William Parker and George Lewis
Joelle Leandre & William Parker
Live At Dunois
Leo Records
Since their first recorded duo collaboration, Contrabasses (Leo, 1998), 11 years ago, Leandre and Parker have trodden different but often close roads. Leandre, more often a loner, has perfected her solo work and opted for small outfits, usually duos and trios, while always finding new collaborators. Parker has become a leader of much larger ensembles, some of them are ongoing projects such as his quartet and the Little Huey Creative Music Orchestra. This project, recorded at Sons D'Hiver festival in France on January 2009, enables both of them to present the essence of their artpassionate, intensive and always imaginative explorations of the double bass.
The six tracks feature the duo's varied methods of communication. Leandre uses the arco more than Parker, and adds her operatic voice, but often both sound as one. Deep in their intimate and intensive low-end conversations, responding fast to each other's gestures, commenting and answering, enriching their musical discourse. This is a very dark colored conversation: busy, sometimes volcanic and as muscular as you might expect from a duo of bull fiddles. There are some surprising sparks of humor on "4," and especially on "6," where both sound as though rubbing their instruments. But, still, it is a sympathetic and compassionate conversation. Like a heated talk between two friends who have missed each other, clearly not willing to subscribe to each other perspectives, but open and eager to understand the other's narrative.
Joelle Leandre/George Lewis
Transatlantic Visions
Rogue Art
This is a totally different kind of conversation. Much more provocative and cerebral, but quite funny. Recorded at the 2008 Vision Festival in New York, excerpts were already captured on Leandre's DVD Basse Continue (Hors Oeil Editions, 2008). Leandre and Lewis have known each other more than 30 years; after seeing Leandre for the first time in London, Lewis concluded: "You're totally crazy. You have to meet [guitarist] Derek Bailey
."Lewis' observation is still valid. This duet is wild, sneaks into myriad bypasses and imaginative sub-plots busy with flowing ideas, and sounds as if the two musicians are courting and enchanting each other. Sometimes it is dramatic in an almost romantic manner, often rich in humorous and ironic gestures, as both sound like they enjoy teasing and challenging the other. It is always a very emotional meeting of well-articulated minds.
This captivating duet presents a close and sympathetic bond between two master improviserson intellectual, emotional and even political levels. They have through the years developed an almost telepathic interplay. Both are rebels who do not follow musical conventions but invent their own fluid rules. All is possible and each musical expression, be it serious or ridiculous, is valid and has a role in this nuanced conversation. Leandre and Lewis succeed in offering a cohesive musical statement, one that is hilarious, challenging and inspiring. Magnificent.

Jill Schlesinger of CBS MoneyWatch, who writes the blog Jill on Money, joined Shine members on Twitter recently to talk about taxes. Schlesinger, a Certified Financial Planner ™, also hosts a nationally syndicated call-in/talk radio show, "Jill on Money," that helps listeners take control of their financial lives.
Whether you have yet to pull together all of your receipts and financial statements from the past year to do your taxes yourself, or you have neatly delivered all of your financial documents to an accountant, you probably have some last-minute questions to ask. Taxes are due April 18! Here's what we learned during our Shine Tax Twitter Chat:
Jill Schlesinger: Jill on Money/CBSMoneyWatch.comQ: What if you work two jobs, but only received one W-2 form?
A: Ask. If there isn't one, include the income on your taxes anyway.
Q: Do teenagers who earn very little working a temporary summer job still need to file taxes?
A: That's tricky. In some cases, yes. In most cases, the simple 1040EZ form is all they need.
Q: Do you still have to file your taxes jointly if you divorced that year?
A: Usually, you do.
Q: There are so many deductions possible! What are the ones I should really look out for?
A: Here are 16 don't miss-deductions you should know about.
Q: My second job doesn't withhold taxes. Should I increase withholding on my primary job, or just pay the extra when I file?
A: I prefer to increase withholding.
Q: I gave money to charity this year. Do I need to file any special forms?
A: Don't forget to file Form 8283 for donations over $500! You don't need a form if you donate money or goods worth less than $500.
Q: How can you find out what to write off for taxes as business-related expenses?
A: My favorite, non-reimbursed deductions since switching careers from investment advice to TV are clothes, hair cuts and make-up! If I buy an outfit for TV, I keep the receipts and make sure to prove that I wore it on air. (Here's more information about how to understand non-reimbursed business expenses.)
Q: I'm considering a job for which I'd have to work remotely. Will I be able to deduct my internet bills?
A: Only the portion that's attributable to working from home.
Q: What happens if you submitted your taxes and realize you forgot to include a form?
A: File an amendment and resubmit your taxes.
Q: Is health insurance for the self-employed deductible?
A:Yes, but can't exceed the net profit of your business.
Q: Any tips for freelancers?
A: Freelancers, beware: The IRS loves to come after you for business expenses. The key is to have documentation!
Q: I've heard that home offices are another red flag for the IRS. Is this true?
A: Your home office must be used "exclusively and regularly" as a principle place of business, and must be a separate space within your home. Working from your home office on Fridays doesn't cut it. A home office can be an audit red flag, but if you have the documents to back it up, then claim it!
Q: Is it better to do your taxes yourself, or hire a tax preparer?
A: Doing it yourself saves money, but pros can often find deductions and credits you may have overlooked! Either way is fine (I'm too lazy to do it myself). Doing your own taxes shouldn't trigger an audit, but be careful with things like first-time home buyer's credit and business losses.
Q: What's a good way to get organized for next year's taxes?
A: Try an accordion file, where each section is a different part of your return. Use last year's return as guide! (If you need a copy of a previous year's tax return, you can order a transcript from the IRS.)
Don't forget, thanks to a holiday in Washington, D.C., you have until April 18, 2011 to file your 2010 taxes. Still crunching those numbers? There's tons of tax information right here on Shine:
- Can't pay your taxes? File anyway
- 101 tax credits for college students
- Child tax credit: What parents really need to know
- What tax records should you keep (and how long you should keep them)

- Which tax method should you use?

- 7 things your tax accountant won't tell you

Age of Conan celebrates its first anniversary... the problem is that R.E. Howard is probably turning in his grave, and Conan is turning too, in a smaller version of his grave - hidden in the author's now long rotten brain.
If you are intrigued by Age of Conan, one of biggest flops in the history of MMO, the game finally has a free trial option thanks to Funcom, Fileplanet and Ausgamers.
When MMO game developers see the fat money World of Warcraft brings to Blizzard, they become all slobbery and start to crave their slice of pie. Then, they forsake all of the originality and engage copy&paste buttons.
In the MMO community there is nothing as hated, but constantly asked for as "nerfs". Story is always the same - player class, ability or a game feature becomes perceived as overpowered and needs to be severely weakened.
Thanks for reading BSN*

Huffington Post UK | By Melanie Hick Posted: 1/05/2012 10:28 Updated: 1/05/2012 10:41
Apple is being re-investigated by the UK advertising standards authority of claims that its iPad 4G does not work on the UK's 4G network.
The ASA told The Huffington Post that the complaints received claim that the product does not work on existing 4G testing bands, others that it will not work with the UK's 4G system once it is rolled out.
Apple advertised the new iPad in both 4G and Wi-Fi models. At the time of release, Apple said that although it will not work on 4G networks outside the US, it will deliver significantly faster 3G broadband.
The ASA told The Huffington Post that the tech giant is being re-investigated after initial complaints were resolved. 40 complaints regarding the possibly misleading 4G claim were initially received by the ASA, and yet more have been received recently.
An ASA spokesperson told The Huffington Post: "When we approached Apple with the concerns that had been raised, it stated it had removed references to 4G from the webpage that was subject to the complaints. Apple also agreed to edit a video that contained references to 4G. On the basis that the issues that had been raised with us had been resolved we closed the case informally."
The ASA says that if it appears that the 4G claims Apple was asked to remove are still appearing, it will investigate the new complaints.
The aggrevation amongst Apple users is not restricted to the UK. In Australia, Apple has been forced to offer refunds to customers who bought the Apple iPad 4G, because it does not work on the country's 4G network.
The Australian Competition & Consumer Commission said in a statement: "Apple's recent promotion of the new 'iPad with wi-fi + 4G' is misleading because it represents to Australian consumers that the product can, with a Sim card, connect to a 4G mobile data network in Australia, when this is not the case."

Allergy Research Group Pure Vitamin C -- 2000 mg - 120 g
Great product
I use this as a scrub for my face. I make my own Vit C scrub and use 2-3 times a week and have seen excellent results.
April 9, 2013
Top Quality Vitamin C Powder
This is the best powdered form of Vitamin C that I have found to date, just half a teaspoon is equal to 2000 mg of pure ascorbic acid.
Highly recommend this product!
December 7, 2012
Great, clean product that agrees with many patients. Perfect for high dosage use.
May 24, 2010
easy to take
I have a hard time swollowing pills, so this, being powder makes it much easier to take. I just mix it with my juise in the morning.
March 28, 2010
We are very happy with this product
This is a great product. I have a sensitive stomach and this does fine. The only complaint I have is it is very sweet.
The kids like it too. I mix it in some unsweetened applesauce for them. They will not drink it in juice since it makes the juice too sweet.

Negative Experience
Very Easy Interview
I applied through other source and the process took a day - interviewed at McAfee in September 2008.
Interview Details Caveat: This is one of the bizarre interviews I have had so far.
It was a very straight fwd process. Whole process took just a day. A written exam to start off, not a tough one at all. After screening, we were announced timings for the first round. The initial round was by an HR. He did not have any technical background for sure, so, he just asked two questions on basic math(apti/set theory, whatever you want to call it) and then the round was over. Looked like short-listed people would be called for the next round, interestingly none of the candidates were shortly. I was shocked, but, then it happens.
Interview Question – Question was on set theory. It was some application of demorgan's law. thats it. Answer Question

Difficult Interview
I applied through a recruiter and the process took 1 week - interviewed at McAfee in May 2013.
Interview Details It was as professional as it could be. I first had a phone interview. The interviewer introduced himself and the team well, went through my resume, my current and past work then few quick general problem solving questions. Afterwards an on-site interview was scheduled within a few days. Interviewers were very humble and the environment was really friendly. HR was professional and acted promptly.
Interview Question – Questions were straightforward programming questions with reasonable clarity. Answer Question

Neutral Experience
Interviewed at McAfee
Interview Details Because it was an internal referral. I was invited to onsite immediately after one round of phone screen. It was really nice experience with them and following up from recruiter is quick as well. The only problem was my expected salary is higher than what they are willing to offer. So it didn't work out. Very nice people by the way.
Interview Question – What is the biggest challenge you faced during your current employment. There are so many challenges so it was kinda hard to organize it right and clean and to represent it. Overall, the interview was not very hard. Answer Question

Interview Details The interviewer was very friendly & asked many good questions. Most were language questions on c++ & specially on pointers , data structures. Although the questions were not very tough, you will need to brush up a bit before the interview.
Most of the questions were from Effective C++ book series. Heard from friends that the work culture is very good & they do understand the need for work-life balance

Opinion: In praise of turning down the lights
Our own eyes tell the same story. Too much light at night actually blinds us with "disability glare" — something middle-aged and elderly drivers know all too well — and bright, unshielded lights make it impossible to see past them to where criminals might hide. (The next time you face a bright streetlight, block it with your hand and notice how much better you can see the area beneath and beyond the light.)
Numerous villages, towns and cities in Europe and the United States have initiated programs to shut off streetlights for at least part of the night. European cities such as Berlin and Copenhagen already have much lower levels of light than their U.S. counterparts, and even some major American cities, such as Tucson, Ariz., have strict lighting ordinances that require a level of light that most Americans would consider dim. None of these towns and cities has reported related increases in crime.
Smart decisions
The new French law is to be applauded, not only for what it may do to save energy and reduce carbon emissions, but also for what it may help us to understand: True safety and security at night comes from making smart decisions, being aware of our surroundings and using lighting wisely.
If the City of Light can do it, why shouldn't we?

RamsCamp: Little separation among receivers so far
Rams fans familiar with our offensive woes since the days of Isaac Bruce, Torry Holt and Ricky Proehl are quick to cite a lack of "separation" from our receivers -- in other words, an inability to get open. Now the term is being thrown around to indicate the lack of an immediate primary threat emerging from the group we've got. Is this a problem, or a nice problem to have?
Ron Clements, CBS Sports' beat reporter covering the Rams training camp, has been on the field every day and is accumulating tons of camp wisdom, nugget by nugget. After yesterday's practice, which saw Donnie Avery and Greg Salas still on the sidelines, Clements caught this comment from coach Spagnuolo:
Aside from Danny Amendola, coach Steve Spagnuolo said there hasn't been much separation in the competition at WR.
"With guys being banged up, I don't know if there's anybody that has clear-cut sailed over anybody else," Spagnuolo said. "But I think the whole group is getting better."

Velociraptor Awareness Bumper Stickers
Geekologie's illustrator in residence Jesse Starr created these velociraptor awareness bumper stickers to remind motorists to share the road with our reptilian brethren. Because you never know, that could have been one of my illegitimate dino-babies you just ran over. The full-size bumper stickers are $4.75 and available over at Daily Stickers (gosh, I hope they have scratch & sniffs!) Get one and show your support for dinos. It's already bad enough our cars run on the creamy black remains of their ancestors. Why do you think all the dinosaurs were so angry in Jurassic Park? Because the park rangers tied rope around their balls like rodeo bulls, silly!

Not sure how fair it is to write a review based on one dish, but first impressions are everything, right?
Please don't order the crispy squid salad. You'll just be setting yourself up for disappointment.
This is one of their main course salads, and when it arrives, you're first surprised by how big the three pieces of squid on top of the salad are. But, beware -- it's not the squid that is...more
Perfect place for lunch in the Canary Wharf. Make reservation though as the place was packed. Huge and immensely tasty calzone is the way to go. Have yet to try their other dishes, but that one definitely wins the cake!more
This is definitely the best pizza I've had in London! The staff was friendly and the service good, though I was a bit miffed that my party of two was seated at the bar though at least one two person table remained open throughout our meal.
The thin-style pizza was reasonably priced and very tasty. The only complaint about the food I have is that although the edge of the crust was crispy, the...more

Example 1
The following definition list has two expanders assigned to it, one for the first answer and one for the other two. The second expander has a number of options set for it, including three "callbacks" which invoke functions at three separate moments.
$(document).ready(function() {
$('dl.expander dd:eq(0)').expander();
$('dl.expander dd:gt(0)').expander({
collapseTimer: 4000,
beforeExpand: function() {
$(this).parent().parent().append('
before expand.
');
afterExpand: function() {
$(this).parent().parent().append('
after expand.
');
onCollapse: function(byUser) {
var by = byUser ? 'user' : 'timer';
$(this).parent().parent().append('
on collapse (' + by + ').
');
Note that the third answer does not have a "read more" link because it's using the default value of 100 characters and 4 "widow" words as its cut-off. No sense in linking to read more when there isn't much more to read.
Example 2
The following list items have a single expander assigned to them with a few custom options set.
$('ul.expander li').expander({
slicePoint: 50,
widow: 2,
expandEffect: 'show',
userCollapseText: '[^]'
Hey, why is the first

collapsed? Well, the first list item is a trick! Rather than let the plugin decide where to truncate the text, I put the links and the span directly in the HTML. It looks like this:

Run a marathon [...]and qualify for Boston.

The Expander Plugin now works for block-level elements, too.

The former contender to replace Hillary Clinton in the Senate says it wasn't an intervention by her kids that led her to step out of the race.
The Manhattan borough president joins the list of people eying Kirsten Giillibrand's Senate seat.
She was behind the Albany attacks on Caroline Kennedy, reports the 'Times.' And Paterson probably was, too.
Not to mention the legendary Lego–Lincoln Log truce he brokered back in '69.
The 'Times' says 'tomato.' The 'Post' says 'gimme a break.'
There really is a family issue — and it's not the nanny, taxes, or marital discord.
Not really. But he had a funny story about how he almost did.
Late last night, somewhere in Albany, someone caught a tiger by the toe. It hollered, and he let him go.
Even the hint that she stepped down because of his health has gotten some people peeved.
But after a night of confusion, it looks like she's out for real now.
Now David Paterson, we don't mean to raise our voices with you, but there's really no reason for you to continue delaying your announcement of who will replace her.

Last Sunday's game between the Detroit Lions and the Chicago Bears cost Lions more than just their sole lead in the Wild Card race. After a hotly contested game involving a team-wide brawl on the field, the NFL has levied fines against at least six different players.
The list includes:
Player | Reason | Amount |
D.J. Moore | fight | $15,000 |
Nick Fairley | roughing the passer | $15,000 |
Earl Bennett | uniform (orange shoes) | $10,000 |
Matthew Stafford | fight | $7,500 |
Rob Sims | late hit | $7,500 |
Kyle Vanden Bosch | fight | $7,500 |
WR Earl Bennett wore orange shoes for a second consecutive game, wearing the un-allowed footwear since he first returned from an injury last week against the Philadelphia Eagles.
In the second half of the Chicago Bears, Detroit Lions game, defensive tackle Nick Fairley tackled Jay Cutler, driving him into the ground well after the Bears quarterback had thrown the ball. The play drew a personal foul penalty and also a hefty fine, but it also precipitated much of the later fighting which resulted in the other three fight fines.
For more on Sunday's game, check out Windy City Gridiron, SB Nation's Chicago Bears blog. Stay tuned to SB Nation Chicago for more updates.

Delta Dave
Delta Dave is definitely a one-man band, playing delta and Chicago-style blues. He is one of the most expressive blues singers and players around today with a style that is both authentic and unique. What makes him so different? It's that rich full sound that comes from the combination of his voice, harmonica, and guitar.He is influenced by Little Walter, Jimmy Reed, George Harmonica Smith, Lightning Hopkins, Muddy Waters, and Howling Wolf.Dave started out as a harmonica player and formed the Delta Dave Blues band in Jacksonville Florida, which recorded the CD "Pig Nose Boogie." Due to difficulties of keeping a guitar player, he decided to learn to play the guitar for himself. He has performed with many blues musicians around the world, including Honey Boy Edwards and John Hammond Jr. in Florida; Little Smokey Smothers and Louisiana Red in Europe; R. L. Burnside in Canada; and some of the members of the Muddy Waters band in Memphis.

For Laurie Gauguin, whole-foods cooking defines both her lifestyle and career. She works in San Francisco as a private chef, food writer, and educator, demonstrating that food is a joyous and integral part of everyone's health and well-being.
Use a very ripe avocado to ensure a smooth dressing. If you're packing this to go, keep the tomatoes, lettuce, dressing, and tortilla chips separate; mix just before serving. Serve with warm corn tortillas, plus fresh mango slices for dessert.
Buttery and mild-flavored black cod, also called sablefish, stays beautifully moist when broiled. Prep tips: Cooking time will vary according to the thickness of the fish and the power of your broiler. Recipe easily can be halved. Serving tip: Accompany with steamed brown jasmine rice.
With half the sodium of two bread slices and one-third the sodium of a large flour tortilla, lavash is a smart choice for this hearty wrap. Look for baba ghanoush in the refrigerator section next to the hummus, or in the deli department.

Showroom features flooring, cabinets
Published on Wed, Jul 14, 2010 by

Christopher Curtis, owner of Curtis Interiors, invites customers to stop by the Sequim or Port Angeles showroom to start planning their construction or remodel project today.
Photo by Ashley Miller
To Christopher Curtis, owner of Curtis Interiors, it's what's inside that really matters.
He looks beyond the exterior of an old, weathered house to the heart of a home to see its true potential. Where as one person might look at a rustic house with weathered, peeling paint and think, 'Boy what a money pit!' Curtis looks at the same house and dreams about what it could look like remodeled.
After working as a general contractor on the peninsula for 10 years, Curtis opened Curtis Interiors in Port Angeles three years ago. Located just west of the U.S. Highway 101 East and Monroe Road intersection, the showroom is distinguishable by a giant golden elephant.
"The honest truth," Curtis said with a laugh, "is that it was sent to us as a present from a company we buy products from and we decided to put it up to draw attention to us."
A matching elephant won't, however, be installed at the new Sequim showroom that opened Memorial Day weekend, Curtis said in an effort to curb one of the most commonly asked questions about the new branch.
Curtis Interiors specializes in cabinets; solid granite and marble countertops; and hardwood, laminate, tile and vinyl flooring sales and installation in new, custom and remodeled homes.
Though other businesses offer similar products and services, it's the company's "fantastic service" and "excellent pricing" that sets Curtis Interiors apart from competitors, Curtis said proudly.
Materials are imported directly from where they are manufactured and purchased in high quantity, allowing the savings to be passed along to customers, explained Andra Smith, general operations manager and Curtis' right-hand woman.
"We will continue to offer our great prices and monthly specials," she said.
The decision to open a
Sequim showroom was an easy one, according to Curtis.
"We've had great success in the Sequim community and wanted to give them something even better than what they already had," he said with an air of confidence.
"We (are able to) work around our customers' schedules because our employees do all the installation and we don't have to wait around on subcontractors."
Now that the Sequim showroom is open, customers are putting two and two together and realizing that Curtis Interiors in Sequim is under the same ownership as the "elephant store" in Port Angeles.
"A lot of people in Sequim didn't know what we offered or that we even existed in Port Angeles," Smith said.
"But that's quickly changing."
Curtis is by no means a newcomer to Sequim. He moved from Kansas City 12 years ago, attracted to the area by the mountains and the oceans. But it was true love that made him decide to stay. He met and married Sequim-native Lynette Brown, an obstetrics nurse at Olympic Memorial Hospital. The couple and their three children - ages 4, 7 and 10 - live between Sequim and Port Angeles, sponsor a youth soccer team and are active in fundraising for Five Acre School.
"I like that this is a small community," Curtis said about Sequim.
"I like the natural beauty of the area, the demographics and the outdoor recreation.
"And even more importantly, it's a great place to raise my kids."
Business hours at both branches are 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday-Friday and 9 a.m.-
3 p.m. Saturday. The Sequim showroom is at 845 W. Washington St., west of Jeremiah's BBQ. The Port Angeles showroom is at 2432 Highway 101 East.
For more information, call 683-2350 or 417-2833.

Game Preview 5/11/12 -- Stormy Weather -- Angels @ Rangers
Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim (14-18) @ Texas Rangers (21-11)
Pitching Probables: LAA – CJ Wilson (4-2, 2.61 ERA) MIN – Yu Darvish (4-1, 2.64 ERA)
Game Info: 5:05 PM PT; TV - Fox Sports West, MLB Network; Radio - KLAA 830
There's a really good chance this game gets rained out so everything about the build up for this series might be postponed for a day or two. However, if they do manage to get this game in, I would expect quite a pitcher's duel. There are literally dozens of story lines here to discuss. First off, CJ Wilson returns to Texas and will most likely get something less than a hero's welcome. Wilson has tweaked the Rangers quite a bit over the winter and don't think Mike Napoli has forgotten Wilson's prank.
Next there is Wilson's replacement, the Japanese sensation Yu Darvish. Darvish has been everything advertised, but I have to wonder how he will respond in this his first real test of the season. Angel hitters haven't exactly been lighting up the scoreboard this season, but something tells me the Halos will be dialed in tonight to take a bite out of the new big dog in the AL west. I have a special notion that this weekend will be a real coming out party for our young Mike Trout.
Last is the spectre of Albert Pujols. This type of series is why you go and get a marquee guy for the middle of your line-up. Pujols has to get on track and I mean right now. This team has no hope of competing without his bat doing some damage on a day to day basis. I'm willing to right off a bad month as an adjustment to a new league and pitchers. But at some point the "greatest hitter alive" should be able to demonstrate that it doesn't matter whether he has seen the pitcher before and just start hitting the cover off the ball like he is supposed to.
I hope they do get this one in and I hope the Angels win tonight to set the tone and give us fans something to root for the remainder of the season. If not, then those storm clouds over Arlington will liklely follow the Angels for the rest of the year.

Yikes! Candy wrappers can't be recycled, so be mindful when trick-or-treating this year to only take what candies you really want in order to reduce the amount of waste you send to landfills. Got extra candy left over? Instead of throwing it away, freeze it and reuse it for other treats. You can crumble and bake the candy into rice krispie treats or cookies.
Love to dress up for Halloween? Reduce your impact and save money this year by reusing past costumes or borrowing from a friend. If you have a costume you no longer want, try donating it to the Salvation Army or Goodwill.
Celebrating the start of the school year but don't know what to do with all those red cups, corks, bottles, and cans? You can recycle them with the help of Terracycle, a company that accepts non-recyclable or difficult-to-recycle items usually destined for landfills. All you need to do is create a brigade free-of-charge for your desired product and start collecting.
Respect resources and our local community this year by choosing locally farmed pumpkins this Halloween. Pick of the Patch Pumpkins, organized by Bay Area farmers, has two locations in Santa Clara and is a good resource for many Halloween activities.

First Child - Severe Preclampsia & HELLPPosted On Wednesday, March 16, 2011 by Sarah |
I so far had a normal pregnancy. All my prenatal visits went well and I never got sick during my pregnancy (though in the beginning I did get carsick). And then this happened... I was 28 weeks pregnant and it was 1 o'clock Wednesday morning. I had only slept for an hour or so. I woke up with a feeling of nausea and what felt like severe heartburn. I had experienced these same symptoms only 2 nights before, but thought it had been something I ate (maybe bad chowder) and I was ok the next day. But this was much worse than that.
They moved me from the table, back into a bed, and to the same room that I came from. They told me I will be on bed rest for 24 hours, so they can monitor me. My husband was able to go see the baby, and handle all the business of bringing in the family to meet our little Joseph. Myself on the other hand wasn't able to see him until 8:00 pm the following day. My husband slept next to me in those chair/beds the entire time I was in the hospital (which was a total of 4 nights). When I first saw my son, I cried. I was happy that he was alive, could not believe that he was the baby that was kicking inside me, and that I have never seen a baby so small before (He was under 2lbs).Â
He is now a healthy 2 year old little boy. He is actually above average in height for his birth age, which says a lot... and he has since graduated from his NICU developmental Follow-Up Program with flying colors. He is a social butterfly and is always interested in how things work... and challenging his mind. He brightens every life he touches. It is a blessing that we are both here today, and I thank the heavens every day for that. |
After surviving a very traumatic first pregnancy with a nightmare delivery (30 hours of magnesium-induced hell, ending in an emergency c-section) and even more debilitating recovery, one would think I was DONE having children. Let's be ...

TB in the US-Mexico Border Region |
Winning the fight against TB: combining efforts of the research and civil society community
Burning this mask was very important to me. I wore it for several months and it was very painful. My peers did not know what my face and smile looked like. When I burned the mask, it was like getting rid of the stigma, I felt free. - Rachel, Border Voices and Images of Tuberculosis Project participant.
What's the issue? TB in the US-Mexican border region
Tuberculosis, or TB, is an infectious bacterial disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which most commonly affects the lungs. It is transmitted from person-to-person via droplets from the throat and lungs of people with the active respiratory disease. In healthy people, infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis often causes no symptoms, since the person's immune system acts to "wall off" the bacteria. The symptoms of active TB of the lungs are coughing, sometimes with sputum or blood, chest pains, weakness, weight loss, fever and night sweats.
Tuberculosis is treatable with a six-month course of antibiotics. About one-third of the world's population is infected with TB, a contagious disease that causes nearly 2 million deaths annually, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
TB continues to be a concern for border areas in both Mexico and the United States. Both countries report approximately 15,000 cases of all forms of tuberculosis on a yearly basis. In 2005, the tuberculosis incidence rate in Mexico was 15 per 100,000, while the United States reported a rate of 4.7 incident TB cases per 100,000 population. What is more troubling is that the U.S.-Mexico border states reported a tuberculosis incidence rate higher than the national average, with rates of 7.9 in U.S. border states and 26.3 in Mexican border states.1
Research to Practice: Improved Research combined with civil advocacy
TB Research has been fundamental in developing effective treatment for acute TB infection. In February 2010, Indiana University School of Medicine researchers identified a mechanism used by the tuberculosis bacterium to evade the body's immune system and identified a compound that blocks the bacterium's ability to survive in the host, which could lead to new drugs to treat tuberculosis and significantly shorten treatment times.2
On the other side, there have been crucial steps by civil society to convey the message that TB is preventable, treatable and curable. An impressive example is the TB Photovoice which presents photographs taken by TB affected community members (survivors, caregivers, friends, family). The photographs and accompanying narratives each represent a life story that serve as a point for discussion about what can be done to change the present situation in regards to TB, stigma, education and related issues.
Another remarkable initiative is Nuestra Casa, a three-dimensional movable house representing the life stories of persons affected by TB, their messages of reality and hope and the surrounding conditions of TB not only at the U.S.-Mexico Border. Ten participants from across Mexico have been available at Nuestra Casa to share their personal stories and photos. It gives clear messages how to prevent and get treatment for TB. Nuestra Casa is a tool for advocacy, communication and social mobilization promoting awareness among decision makers, health care providers, and the public in general to get involved in concrete action to prevent the spread of TB, reducing the number of cases and deaths caused by it.
What next: Improved detection through integrated cross-sector approaches
Although medicines to treat TB are available, they must be taken for at least six months to fully eliminate all TB bacteria from the body. People who do not follow the lengthy treatment regimen can become sick and infectious with a more virulent form of the disease that is resistant to standard medicines. As Rachel puts it: "We are told that recovery will take place after a full course of treatment. That's not always easy when jobs and life's daily demands take priority. It's not long before your life-saving medication becomes a daily intrusion—especially without warning that interrupting treatment increases drug resistance and furthers TB infections."
Further, detection of TB remains a huge challenge. Lack of widespread diagnostic tools hinders patients from starting early treatment once the disease is active. At 35, Rachel was diagnosed with diabetes. Since susceptibility to TB is higher with diabetes, hepatitis, HIV/AIDS, smoking and other addictions, malnourishment, and pregnancy, her latent TB infection developed into the active disease within a year. For three agonizing years, Rachel was misdiagnosed with flu, colds, allergies, respiratory infections, pneumonia, and asthma. Her 3-year-old niece also suffered through surgeries to remove a recurring cyst. Only after Rachel was correctly diagnosed was her removed tissue tested and found positive for TB. They both started the daily medication treatment for active TB disease. Rachel's case shows the need for upscaling TB detection to allow correct diagnosis and early treatment.
What does this show? There is an urgent need to combine efforts by the scientific community and civil society, so that they become linked in a way that is synergistic. The research community should cooperate with civil society initiatives to promote TB prevention and treatment. Civil society should make use of the newest research advances for better decision-making. With regard to the US-Mexican border, implementing effective control, prevention and treatment for TB is particularly difficult. Efforts to control tuberculosis in the United States–Mexico border are reflected in the 2005–2010 Strategic Plan of Ten against Tuberculosis, a binational initiative created by the health officers of the 10 U.S.-Mexico border states in June 1995. However, more efforts are needed to face the lack of coordination among a myriad of actors and stakeholders. Health prevention communication methods are often insufficiently adapted to the border-specific context.

Beginning Sunday, new AEA executive secretary Henry C. Mabry, 44, and associate executive secretary Gregory T. Graves, 37, take over from retiring executive secretary Paul Hubbert and associate executive secretary Joe Reed.
The number of people receiving unemployment benefits continues to fall both nationwide and in Alabama, although Morgan and Lawrence counties have seen an increase in the past year.
The Labor Department reports that the national figure has dropped from 4.18 million in mid-December 2010 to 3.61 million for the same period this year.
So far, three of the biggest private groups collecting money for long-term recovery have raised about $12 million -- only about 1 percent of what would be needed to cover those individuals' unmet recovery needs.
Residents in the 6th Congressional District received automated phone calls Tuesday night asking whether they would vote for Beason or Bachus in a Republican primary. There is a "Draft Scott Beason for Congress" page on Facebook touting his "ironclad conservative principles."
The AEA board of directors also selected AEA attorney Gregory T. Graves to succeed retiring Associate Executive Secretary Joe Reed.
