Support event for sufferers of glaucoma next week
5:16pm Thursday 27th February 2014 in News
GLAUCOMA patients in Worcestershire along with their families and carers are invited to a support group in Worcester next week.
The next meeting of the Worcestershire Glaucoma Support Group led by clinical director for ophthalmology at Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust Tarun Sharma will be held from 10am until 1pm on Friday, March 7 at the headquarters of Sight Concern in the Bradbury Centre in Sansome Walk.
Mr Sharma will be discussing new surgical options to treat the condition – which affects about 15,000 across the country – as well as answering patient's questions.
He said: "Receiving a diagnosis for such conditions can instil many worries and concerns in patients and some find it difficult to focus on the questions they need to ask at the time of their consultation in hospital.
"This may lead to problems such as taking their medication incorrectly.
"Previous meetings have proved really successful with good feedback from those who attended.
"The overall aim is to help improve outcomes of glaucoma interventions and improve the quality of life of all glaucoma patients and their relatives."
The free event is supported by Sight Concern and the International Glaucoma Association.

Pantera – Reinventing the Steel Reviews
Pantera's back, and all is as wrong with the world as it ever was. They're going to make sure you know it, too. Despite the four-year absence from the studio between Great Southern Trendkill and Reinventing the Steel, Pantera's unflagging aggression is confirmed by the full-throttle rhythms, throat-ripping vocals, and crunchy guitars. Call it their Metallica legacy, except that Pantera are more Metallica than Metallica these days. Heavy metal of this breed may be past its heyday, b (more…)

Students thinking about law school frequently ask what subjects they should take, or what majors they should select as preparation for law school. Law schools do not require any particular course of study or major as a pre-requisite for admission. Studies show there is no correlation between undergraduate major and success in law school.
The American Bar Association does not recommend any particular group of undergraduate majors or courses that should be taken by those wishing to prepare for legal education. What law schools will look for is whether a student's course of study was a rigorous intellectual experience, which demonstrates the academic skills and the intelligence necessary to pursue a legal education. The legal studies minor is designed to prepare students for successful admission to law school by exposing students to a variety of subject matters and providing a balance in students' educational experiences.
Selecting courses from among those offered through the legal studies minor help students develop oral and written communication proficiency, as well as acquire knowledge of legal history, theory, and philosophy. The Moot Court capstone course requires students to use analytical and problem-solving skills to construct factually sound and logically consistent oral arguments.

Libba Bray's secret underground lair, from which one day she plans to rule the universe, is, interestingly enough an exact replica of her living room in Brooklyn. Although the fact that it contains the world's most uncomfortable couch may be her downfall. As she told BookPage while sitting on that couch, "It's hard to be an Evil Author Overlord'Ñ¢ with an aching back."
Fans of Bray's best-selling Gemma Doyle trilogy (beginning with A Great and Terrible Beauty) who have sought out her stories in anthologies such as The Restless Dead and 21 Proms will be familiar with her manner of pulling humor out of the darkest corners of life. Now in her tremendously original and compulsively readable picaresque Going Bovine, Bray goes all-out to explore her inner weird and has produced a provocative road novel for the 21st century.
Readers of the Gemma Doyle books may wonder if this is the same author. Bray says it should actually be the other way around: when she wrote the Gemma Doyle books her "close friends were thrown for a loop. They expected a Going Bovine-type book, not gothic historical fantasy."
Going Bovine was sparked by a story Bray's mother told her. "A man in our hometown had been diagnosed with Creutzfeldt-Jakob's disease, the human variant of mad cow disease. During his deterioration, he suffered from horrifying hallucinations, including one in which he would see flames shooting up into his field of vision." Bray was fascinated by the idea of not being able to trust your reality.
That idea of not knowing what's real and what's not eventually grew into Going Bovine, in which 16-year-old Cameron discovers he has mad cow disease and is horrified to find it is a death sentence. Cameron's vision quest across the country in search of a cure begins when he realizes how much of his life he has missed by just letting it pass by. This "temptation to drift off into solipsism" was what Bray wanted to investigate in Going Bovine.
Bray had no trouble getting into Cameron's teenage male headspace. Growing up, she had a backstage pass into the Y-chromosome experience--many of her close friends were male and she was spared nothing by her brother, Stuart. She proudly declares that many of her female friends have pointed out she is a teen boy at heart. Further proving her point, Bray says, "I realized while writing this that the characters I identified with most as a teen/young adult were all male--Holden Caulfield, Jimmy from Quadrophenia, Harold in Harold & Maude. All the poster boys for the vulnerable, disillusioned and sex-and-death obsessed."
Even though Bray immersed herself in pop culture as she wrote the book--her list of influences includes The Flaming Lips, Ray LaMontagne, The Shins, Gnarls Barkley, Sufjan Stevens, Thomas Pynchon, George Saunders, Julian Barbour, Kurt Vonnegut, Don Quixote, Ovid, Norse mythology, Star Wars, The Wizard of Oz and even "the way midnight movies make you feel when you are 17"--she uses imaginary names for the bands and brands her characters talk about so that the book wouldn't be dated. These imaginary people and products, such as Rad Soda, notch up the absurdity and surrealism quotient and allow Bray to slide in a little commentary on rampant consumerism, reality TV and branding. "And," she noted, "it's really fun to make stuff up."
But the real question is, does she still eat hamburgers? "Occasionally. But now I hear a ticking time bomb of death with every bite. Honestly, if you want to scoot toward vegetarianism, just research mad cow disease."
For the next little while she'll be concentrating on Tiger Beat, a band comprised of YA authors--Natalie Standiford on bass, Daniel Ehrenhaft on guitar, Barney Miller on drums and vocals and Bray on vocals and drums (her tambourine skills are really improving). They have a gig with Frank Portman and the Mr. T Experience at Sidewalk CafÈ in New York City on September 20 and are hoping to do more later in the fall.
As for future writing projects, Bray says, "I just want to write what I want to write when I wants to write it." Her work-in-progress is once again very different from her previous work (although it too sounds like a un-put-down-able read). She describes it as "a satire about a group of teen beauty queens whose plane crashes on a deserted island. Sort of Lord of the Flies as channeled by P.J. O'Rourke and [National Lampoom writer] Doug Kenney."
Gavin J. Grant is the publisher of Small Beer Press. He does not eat hamburgers.

And don't miss the hilarious trailer for the book.Copyright 2009 BookPage Reviews.
In a departure from her Victorian-era trilogy for teens, Libba Bray dishes out a multi-layered dark comedy in her latest book, Going Bovine. Sixteen-year-old Cameron Smith, a self-absorbed slacker from Texas, is dying from Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease, the human variant of Mad Cow.
Doctors don't give Cameron much time, but Dulcie, a punk angel with pink hair, explains that the prions attacking his brain are from dark energy released by Dr. X. While parallel world-hopping, this mad scientist opened a wormhole, allowing dark energy to penetrate Earth. If Cameron can track down Dr. X, he'll not only find a cure for his Mad Cow, but also save the planet in the process.
Cameron sets out on a farcical road trip to Daytona Beach, where Dr. X may be hiding. With help from his hospital roommate (an anxious, hypochondriac Little Person named Paul Henry "Gonzo" Gonzales), guidance from Dulcie and messages from tabloids, the pair tackles a series of hilarious, Don Quixote-like battles.
During the journey, Cameron begins to appreciate his parents, reconnect with his near-perfect sister and most importantly, learn about himself and how to trust, love—and live. While enjoying the hijinks, readers will have to decide whether Cameron's escapades are really happening or merely the result of his deteriorating spongy brain, an element that adds to the madcap fun.Copyright 2009 BookPage Reviews.
Cameron Smith, 16, is slumming through high school, overshadowed by a sister "pre-majoring in perfection," while working (ineptly) at the Buddha Burger. Then something happens to make him the focus of his family's attention: he contracts mad cow disease. What takes place after he is hospitalized is either that a gorgeous angel persuades him to search for a cure that will also save the world, or that he has a vivid hallucination brought on by the disease. Either way, what readers have is an absurdist comedy in which Cameron, Gonzo (a neurotic dwarf) and Balder (a Norse god cursed to appear as a yard gnome) go on a quixotic road trip during which they learn about string theory, wormholes and true love en route to Disney World. Bray's surreal humor may surprise fans of her historical fantasies about Gemma Doyle, as she trains her satirical eye on modern education, American materialism and religious cults (the smoothie-drinking members of the Church of Everlasting Satisfaction and Snack 'N' Bowl). Offer this to fans of Douglas Adams's Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy seeking more inspired lunacy. Ages 14-up. (Sept.)[Page 46]. Copyright 2009 Reed Business Information.
Gr 8 Up--In this ambitious novel, Cameron, a 16-year-old slacker whose somewhat dysfunctional family has just about given up on him, as perhaps he himself has, when his diagnosis of Creutzfeldt-Jacob, "mad cow" disease, reunites them, if too late. The heart of the story, though, is a hallucinatory--or is it?--quest with many parallels to the hopeless but inspirational efforts of Don Quixote, about whom Cameron had been reading before his illness. Just like the crazy--or was he?--Spaniard, Cam is motivated to go on a journey by a sort of Dulcinea. His pink-haired, white-winged version goes by Dulcie and leads him to take up arms against the Dark Wizard and fire giants that attack him intermittently, and to find a missing Dr. X, who can both help save the world and cure him. Cameron's Sancho is a Mexican-American dwarf, game-master hypochondriac he met in the pot smokers' bathroom at school who later turns up as his hospital roommate. Bray blends in a hearty dose of satire on the road trip as Cameron leaves his Texas deathbed--or does he?--to battle evil forces with a legendary jazz horn player, to escape the evil clutches of a happiness cult, to experiment with cloistered scientists trying to solve the mysteries of the universe, and to save a yard gnome embodying a Viking god from the clutches of the materialistic, fame-obsessed MTV-culture clones who shun individual thought. It's a trip worth taking, though meandering and message-driven at times. Some teens may check out before Cameron makes it to his final destination, but many will enjoy asking themselves the questions both deep and shallow that pop up along the way.--Suzanne Gordon, Peachtree Ridge High School, Suwanee, GA[Page 151].

Biotech Stock Mailbag: Corcept Therapeutics, Reader Retorts
Corcept's phase III study demonstrated Korlym's efficacy but safety issues and concerns -- low potassium levels, adrenal insufficiency, endometriosis in women and possible heart rhythm abnormalities -- will likely keep the drug from being approved on a first pass.
If you're curious, I'm not alone in predicting Korlym's rejection next week. Forty-seven percent of contestants in my 2012 FDA Drug Approval Contest agreed with my assessment compared to 42% who believe Korlym will be approved. The remaining 10% predict a delay in an FDA decision.
Oncothyreon (ONTY) bull @given2tweet challenges me (an Oncothyreon bear) to refute some facts/assertions that he believes points to a positive outcome for the ongoing phase III study of Stimuvax in non-small cell lung cancer. Merck KGaA, which licensed Stimuvax from Oncothyreon, is running the lung cancer trial. Results from a second interim analysis are expected this quarter.
"Four new [Stimuvax] trials initiated in last four months -- breast, colorectal, colon and rectal," says @given2tweet. "Why would Merck KGaA wait five-plus years to launch four phase IIs? Why didn't they do this 2007-2010? Further, Merck hired a cost-slashing CFO in 2011. He killed a dozen drugs in the pipeline last year. Why would he green light four phase IIs when we are months away from interim data and a year from top line?"Is Merck obligated to invest in further Stimuvax-related R&D, per the terms of its license with Oncothyreon? I don't know, but it seems as reasonable an assumption to make as implying that investment in new Stimuvax studies today suggests that the lung cancer phase III trial is working. Pfizer (PFE) paid an upfront fee of $225 million to Medivation (MDVN) to gain control of the latter's Alzheimer's drug Dimebon when it only had phase II data to examine. Pfizer then investing tens of millions of dollars more in several large phase III trials. Dimebon ultimately failed rather spectacularly, meaning Pfizer flushed a ton of money down the toilet. My point is that large pharmaceutical companies take risks, start trials, invest big money all the time in experimental drugs where the ultimate outcome is uncertain. By your logic, Dimebon should have worked because Pfizer invested way more money in the drug than German Merck is doing with Stimuvax. I checked ClinicalTrials.gov and I can't find four new phase II studies of Stimuvax. I found a rectal cancer study begun Jan. 6, 2012 and a prostate cancer study started Nov. 3, 2011. Both studies are small with exploratory immunological response primary endpoints. Next, @given2tweets asks, "Why is [Stimuvax phase III] trial taking so long with a known enrollment curve? Is there any point where the bears will admit that something is odd? If the trial hasn't reached top line till 2015 would you conclude maybe the drug works? Please tell us if this is ever a useful indicator."

G-Star and Vs. Magazine Devour Art-------
Blurring the boundaries between the worlds of fashion, art, music, and film has always been a focus at G-Star. The denim brand regularly works with noteworthy director Anton Corbijn on its print campaigns, and recently kicked off its new Art of RAW project
"I let the tone of the [Art of RAW] collection inspire [me]. So [the film] definitely had to be something with a dark edge to it, while still making an artistic point," Rasmussen told Style.com. The director—a frequent Vs. collaborator—brought in personal muse and former Givenchy model Marie de Villepin to costar in the film and help with its soundtrack (de Villepin is the frontwoman of the band Pinkmist). "I like sturdy, hard-edged female fashion, and the idea of durable clothing that's built to last," Rasmussen continued. "The word raw has always been a huge turn-on to me because it implies no pretense—no refining, no makeup, no facade. That is rare in fashion and why G-Star's Art of RAW project is so refreshing."
Vs. and G-Star gave Style.com an exclusive sneak peek at the film and will debut the full version tonight with an event at the Electric Room at Dream Downtown. Catherine McNeil, Dorothea Barth Jorgensen, David Blaine, Lulu Gainsbourg, and Sophie Auster are among the expected guests.

Size: 19.9 acres
Habitat: The scrubby habitat dominating this site has become one of the rarest plant communities in Broward County. Since the Florida scrub was the highest and driest habitat in South Florida, development focused first in these areas as the region was colonized, leaving very little of the habitat intact. This site contains a mosaic of scrubby flatwoods, oak-dominated scrub, and sand pine scrub. A small remnant dome swamp is located on the north boundary.
Vegetation: The scrubby flatwoods canopy is dominated by slash pine, while sand pines dominate the sand pine scrub area. Myrtle oak, sand live oak, Chapman's oak, hog plum, and saw palmetto are found throughout the site. Other plants found on site include largeflower false rosemary, netted pawpaw, wild pennyroyal, Feay's palafox, and coastalplain staggerbush. A few bald cypress trees along the north boundary mark the location of the remnant dome swamp.
Wildlife: Among the wildlife recorded on site are the zebra swallowtail, eastern towhee, American kestrel, eastern phoebe, painted bunting, and gray fox. Several fossorial animals – meaning animals that are adapted to digging and living underground – also live within the site, including the gopher tortoise (a protected species), eastern glass lizard, six-lined racerunner, and ox beetle.
Amenities: Site amenities include benches and an unpaved nature trail just over half a mile in length. Wildlife observation is encouraged, although bicycles, inline skates, skateboards, and motorized vehicles are prohibited on the trails. As with all natural area sites, pets are not allowed.
EcoAction Days (October through May): Volunteer workdays help keep our natural areas clear of garbage and invasive plants. They're held on the fourth Saturday of the month from 9 a.m. to noon. Closed-toe shoes are required, and long pants and long sleeves are suggested. Volunteers are encouraged to bring their own gloves, hats, sunscreen, insect repellent, and drinking water. Ages 13 to 17 must have a parent or guardian's signature on the registration form prior to participating. Volunteers under the age of 13 may participate, but only if accompanied by a parent or guardian. High school students can use the hours from these workdays toward their required community service hours. Check the volunteer Web page for the latest workday registration form. Preregister by calling Quiet Waters Park at 954-357-5100.
A Little History: The site's name reflects some of the history of the area. Military Trail was originally built as a dirt access road for soldiers during the Second Seminole War (1835-1842). In 1890, the site was part of a larger land parcel deeded to the Florida Coast Line Canal and Transportation Company as payment for work on the Intracoastal Waterway. In 1897, the land parcel was sold to the company most commonly known as the Florida East Coast Railway Company, controlled by Henry Flagler. Broward County purchased the site through the 1989 Environmentally Sensitive Lands Bond program, which was dedicated to preserving sites with significant habitat. The site was opened for the public's enjoyment in 2011.
The natural area is accessible from Broward County Transit Route #34.

Welcome to SpaceSimCentral.com
It was a daring move to follow those weak comm signals out this far into space, but you lucked out. You have found SpaceSimCentral, a station that has been tucked away for some time at the edges of our galaxy where only the brave and adventurous travelers dare to go to seek fame and fortune. SpaceSimCentral is one of the last stops before you set off on new adventures in the vastness of deep space. We do get many travelers that tell great tales of merchandise and even things you can get for free if you know where to look. So, finish docking your ship and check-in your valuables and spend some time chatting with the locals on the station and maybe you will discover something you have been waiting a whole lifetime to find.
Enough of the intro, I'm DarkOne the Admin of SpaceSimCentral and we have been around a few years and are striving to become a great source of news, lore and a file repository for your favorite and upcoming space/scifi gaming titles. I have always tried very hard to make SSC a community where both developers and gamers can discuss what they want to see in games and developers can show off what they are working on and get honest feedback from gamers first hand. To all of the developers out there, SSC has always been very accommodating to developers in that we give them free forum space here on SSC to discuss their games with the public. There are quite a few projects going on here at SSC so you might as well join in on the fun as well.
So have fun exploring SSC, the site is going through some major changes and will probably continue to change for the coming months. But this is for the good and I look forward to peoples opinions on what they think and with any luck I can get some members to write up some articles and blogs about their favorite games so I don't have to do all the work. So checkout what SSC has to offer and do register and let us know of any new games or help us out with locating old mods/patches. Enjoy the community and see you in the forums.

Hey. I'm ThymineC. I saw your post over on the Limit Theory forums. I used to be the most profilic poster there - I got up to like 3500 posts or so before Gazz banned me, called the police on me and tried to get me expelled from university. My poor attempt at game design was a pretty fun hobby while it lasted.
I just wanted to say that your game looks pretty sweet based on the few videos I've watched so far. Also I love your handle - The Player of Games was an awesome novel.

Any games like X3 or Pirates of the carribean
Hey guys new here - Does anyone have any recommendations for a game similar to x3 where you can pilot / buy/upgrade/sell your ship
I really love the flying or sailing (either one) able to change up your ship in a sandbox environment where you can engage whoever you want.
Pirates of the Caribbean the 2003 (sea dogs 2) game was awesome you could choose when to broadside someone upgrade your ship and was pretty cool how it all worked.
X3 was def one of my favorite games - is there anything similar? The rebirth game was a huge disappointment if that says anything about what i'm looking for.
Kinetic void I tried and it was meh.. Felt very incomplete and missing alot of things.
Space engineers was awesome but again its more of a building game and not so much combat/trade/exploring
Please nothing linear - I hate linear games where you have to do a campaign. I just want something that will go on forever or a mod that will enable it if you have a linear game that can do said things.
Damage to certain systems/areas is always awesome too love that kinda stuff

Hi all.
I´ve noticed that now texture compression is default. I used to use compressed textures on in the options menu. No idea if it has something to do with my problem but now the sim does not run and it shows a crash window at the beggining:
GL_NUM_COMPRESSED_TEXTURE_FORMATS is zero
Pioneer can not run in your graphic card as it does not support compressed DXTn/S3TC texture formats.
I´ve tried to turn texture compression off directly in the config but does not work.
Does that mean the game has changed and won´t run any more in my computer?. I´ve never had any problems in any game until this year. I can´t believe it...
ATI Radeon HD 6470M 1Gb. Windows 7 64.
My intention was posting this issue in the GitHub. But I have considered first making a question here to have some light. No idea if it is an issue , bug or simply new hardware requirements.

Shores of Hazeron Shut Down?
What is this? Is this a joke or did Haxus finally pull the plug? SoH has been my favorite game ever since I discovered it, however, I have been waiting, patiently, for years for him to clean it up and make it a much better game than it was when I was playing.
I finally read that he has fixed the lag and then BAM! Game shutdown?
I'm about to cry.

Help me remember. :-)
Back in 1995 I got my first computer (PC with windows 95), and on this computer were the most awesome space game ever! Now the problem is I cannot remember the name of it, and I have tried searching for days, but to no use.
So I shall try to describe the game:
The color scheme is very basic, like only a few colors total in the entire game, i think the player was green, and the computer were like red and yellow and blue. The ships and planets only had an outline of the corresponding color with no fill.
I think you controlled the ship with the arrow keys on the keyboard.
In this game, you have a top-down perspective and its 2D. You could fly anywhere you liked. In-game you had to sort of fly through space and land on asteroids/planets to take them over, they would slowly develop a base and defense, with no defense the enemy could take your entire planet with the base. Landing on these without crashing was also a challenge sometimes because you often misjudged the speed of your ship. I never completed one game because I were so young and incompetent at the time.
You could also get weapon upgrades to some sort of laser.
I hope you guys can help me identify my childhood game! I'm 27 btw.
- Thanks !

Looking for this game
I'm looking for a space combat/exploration game I played a while back. It was viewed from a top-down perspective. I remember switching my armor plating from metal to organic, which regenerated hull integrity automatically, and I also remember ships named after weapons. Something along the lines of "Scimitar", "Estoc" or "Epee". I'm sorry, I know it's vague. I'm having a lot of trouble finding it. It was 2D, I believe, and I played it something like five years ago. Any information would really be appreciated!
Edit: I found it. It's Epoch Star. I looked through the games but had overlooked it, I guess.

|You alone hold the keys to your happiness, peace and fulfillment. Take responsibility of your life.
"I want you to practice silence," the master said, "Therefore, you are only allowed to speak once every twelve years, only one sentence of no more than five words."
The disciple readily agreed. For twelve years he tried to meditate and eagerly waited for his opportunity to speak.
"Bed is too hard," he said to his guru at the first opportunity after twelve years.
"Hmm..." the master grumbled.
Another twelve years went by in silence and the disciple complained, "Food is too cold."
"Hmm..." said the master.
The disciple felt angry but he did not want to break the rule. He meditated for another twelve years and said, "I'm leaving." Exceeding the limit of five words, he continued, "This is rubbish. I haven't gained anything, I haven't learned anything, you haven't taught me anything."
"Good! Be gone," the master replied, "all I have heard you do in the last thirty-six years is complain, complain, complain! If silence couldn't teach you what else can, from who else can you learn if you couldn't learn from life?"
Putting aside the humor, this anecdote may sound extreme but it is not far from the reality of the lives of many people. A bulk of the emails I get are around people going through problems, most who come to see me are somehow unhappy. They are complaining about life, others, about things, circumstances, about situations. While in the story above, the disciple spoke only three times, in every likelihood he complained in his head a million times more. I call this cerebral complaining. Many do this all the time, they are almost always complaining in their mind, even in their dreams.
I am reminded of a great story by Robert Fulghum. During his early twenties he used to work for a countryside resort. He had to do the night shift as a receptionist and mind the stables during the day. The owner was not the most likable or the kindest person on the planet and Robert was getting weary of eating the same lunch everyday. In addition, the cost of the lunch would get deducted from his paycheck. It got on his nerves.
One night, he could hold it no longer, especially when he found out that the same lunch was going to be served for another couple of days. One of his colleagues, working as a night auditor, was Sigmund Wollman, a German Jewish guy. A survivor of Auschwitz, Sigmund had spent three years at the concentration camp. He was happy and contented in the same hotel where Robert was mad and upset. Finding no one else around to share his frustration, Robert spoke to Sigmund and expressed his anger against the hotel owner, he was mad because of eating the same food day-in-day-out and for having to pay for it. Worked up, he was really crossed. Sigmund, however, listened patiently before saying:
"Lissen, Fulchum, Lissen me, lissen me. You know what's wrong with you? It's not the food and it's not the boss and it's not this job."
"So what's wrong with me?"
"Fulchum, you think you know everything but you don't know the difference between an inconvenience and a problem. If you break your neck, if you have nothing to eat, if your house is on fire — then you've got a problem. Everything else is an inconvenience. Life is inconvenient. Life is lumpy."
Robert Fulghum had a realization and he further wrote in his story, "I think of this as the Wollman Test of Reality. Life is lumpy. And a lump in the porridge, a lump in the throat and a lump in the breast are not the same lump. One should learn the difference."
It is important to get real if you want to make the best of your life. You can keep complaining or you can start living. They say life is ninety percent how you take it and ten percent how you make it. It is easy, perhaps even natural and normal that you hold others responsible for what all is not right in your life, but it will not take you anywhere, such an approach will not solve your problems, it will not ease your concerns. Do not wait for someone else to take charge of your life. Analyze yourself, know yourself, treat yourself with care, love yourself. While you may have responsibilities, do not be afraid of living for yourself too. All of that is possible only when you take ownership of your life, when you take responsibility of the choices you make in life.
Understand yourself so you can get comfortable with yourself, life will not feel so inconvenient thereafter. If you cannot make yourself happy, how can you reasonably expect others to make you happy? You alone hold the key to your happiness. Be free, be fearless.

The Dearborn County Board of Commissioners released a "State of the County" report today. The report reflects on the efforts and success of 2013 and is designed to keep County Council and the citizens of Dearborn County updated on the goals, priorities, successes, and challenges facing our county.
An excerpt of the Executive Summary in the report states: "Major successes included cleaning up outdated ordinances, gaining a better understanding of the challenges facing managers and county Boards, building deeper and better relationships across the municipalities and community as a whole, bringing to resolution an internal struggle of jail overcrowding and a debate that had been occurring over many years, addressing the potential of being considered "high risk" for unemployment insurance due to repeated years of high claims, and stepping into a very competitive situation to secure the largest economic development project in the unincorporated area of the county in many years."
Interested citizens who read the report will gain a better understanding of the strategic goals the Commissioners have for Dearborn County. It includes details on progress this past year relative to economic growth, fiscal responsibility, communication & accountability, risk management, capital projects, and roads & bridges. As stated in the opening letter, "Whether it's forging new partnerships, promoting economic development, or managing the day-to-day operations of the county, you can rest assured the trust you have placed in us is not taken lightly. We have much work ahead of us and remind you that our door is always open to hear your ideas and feedback as this truly is

Which head coaching candidate should the Bucs hire? In the fourth installment of the Pewter Report Great Debate, Andrew Scavelli says Mike Zimmer should become the team's next head coach.
In the first edition of the Pewter Report Great Debate, the PR staff – Scott Reynolds, Mark Cook, Andrew Scavelli and Eric Dellaratta – offers its opinions on which head coach, offensive coordinator and defensive coordinator the Buccaneers should hire to replace Raheem Morris. Publisher Scott Reynolds began the debate with his choice being long time NFL coach Marty Schottenheimer. Next, beat writer Eric Dellaratta suggested that Todd Bowles would be a great fit with the Bucs. Editor-in-Chief Mark Cook sounded off third, saying that Brian Billick should become Tampa Bay's next head coach. In this fourth and final installment, beat writer Andrew Scavelli makes a case for who he believes would be a good fit to become the ninth head coach in Tampa Bay Buccaneers history.
The Buccaneers are almost two weeks into their search for a new head coach and based on the list of candidates the team has already interviewed, which includes the likes of Mike Sherman and Marty Schottenheimer, it is very clear that the organization wants to go in a different direction at that position. Tampa Bay seems to be looking for an experienced coach that can both instill discipline into the players and earn their respect at the same time. Cincinnati Bengals defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer fits this bill perfectly and is someone the team must consider interviewing for their vacant head coaching spot.
If the Bucs are planning on hiring a short-term option like Marty Schottenheimer to help turn the team around until they can find the next hot coordinator candidate that can take the team to the next level, they don't need to look any further than Zimmer, who can be that long-term solution for Tampa Bay. The 55-year old Zimmer paid his dues and is more than ready for the opportunity to lead a football team after coaching 18 seasons in the NFL and spending 12 of those years as a successful defensive coordinator.
San Francisco 49ers defensive line coach Jim Tomsula may be one of the best kept secrets in the league, but it shouldn't stay that way much longer as he is on the fast track to becoming a head coach in the college or possibly even NFL ranks. The Bucs would be wise to grab Tomsula for a couple years to help shore up their defense before he moves on his way to bigger and better opportunities.
Tomsula's story is one that defied all odds, but through very hard work, he positioned himself to be where he is today. His college coaching career began in 1991 when he landed a job as an assistant at Charleston Southern University. In order to support his family, Tomsula held many jobs such as serving as a night janitor, delivering newspapers, and cutting firewood. After his time at Charleston Southern, Tomsula became a volunteer assistant defensive line coach at Catawba in 1997. Since he made no income in this position, he picked up a part-time job as a carpet salesman and had to live out of his car.
All of Tomsula's hard work finally paid off in 1998 when he was named the defensive line coach of the England Monarchs of NFL Europa and then he continued his career as a defensive line coach in NFLE with the Scottish Claymores for five more seasons. Tomsula finally received a promoted to defensive coordinator with the Berlin Thunder in 2004 and won World Bowl XII in his first season with the Thunder. In 2006, Tomsula was named the head coach of the Rhein Fire and spent another season in Europe before signing on with the 49ers as their defensive line coach.
Tomsula just finished his fifth season with San Francisco and fans may know him best for serving as the team's interim head coach for the final game of the 2010 season, in which he led the 49ers to a 38-7 victory over the Arizona Cardinals. Since arriving in San Francisco, the 49ers run defense and pass rush has greatly improved under his watch and has allowed just 3.7 yards per carry in his first four years, ranking fourth in the league in that timeframe. Tomsula has also helped to develop San Francisco's pass rush in that same time span and played a part in the team producing 145 sacks in his first four years.
The Bucs invested high draft picks and a lot of money in defensive tackles Gerald McCoy and Brian Price and defensive ends Adrian Clayborn and Da'Quan Bowers the past two years, and the team needs someone that can help develop those players and get the most out of them. Tomsula is the best in the business and would play an integral role, along with Mike Zimmer, in helping the Bucs to stop the run.
Tampa Bay finished the 2011 season with the worst run defense in the league, allowing a horrific 156.1 yards per game and 26 touchdowns on the season, whereas the 49ers under Tomsula's direction finished 2011 with the best rushing defense, allowing only 77.2 yards per game and just three rushing touchdowns all season.
Tomsula is a man of great character and is a very fiery coach that also demands respect in the mold of Zimmer. His players love to play for him and he is a master motivator. Tomsula would greatly improve Tampa Bay's run defense and culture as a whole on the defensive side of the ball if he received the opportunity, and that's why he rounds out Tampa Bay's new coaching staff.

Today's weather forecast: Dreamy
Miley Cyrus created a lot of buzz when she recently shaved her head, even though the hairstyle was first brought to our attention by hip hop artist Pepa in the late 80s. Since then, a number of Hollywood icons have toyed with different versions of the look. While this hairdo could easily turn into a hair don't (anyone see Claire's "shaved by the bell" debacle in this week's episode of Modern Family?), it has also served some women quite well (ex: singer/actress Rihanna). We especially like the way Ellie Goulding rocks it in advertisments for her latest album, "Halcyon," released on October 5 (her poster on Fairfax caught my eye on my way to the office this morning).
Why does this look work for Ellie? We credit her ability to feminize this 'do by keeping more length than Miley's original cut and combining it with some classic British fashion sense. Whether worn boldly or underplayed, Ellie achieves a look that is both glamorous and timeless.

The Alpine Uncased Indoor Coil is made for split system air conditioners and heat pumps installed in mobile homes. They are specifically designed to fit inside the coil cabinet of the AHDGAA, AHDFAA, and AHEB model furnaces. This evaporator coil comes with an installed TXV, so no additional orifice / flowrater is needed. Features
Inside air conditioning systems are liquid/gas refrigerant. There are two types of this refrigerant available for use, R-22 (more commonly known as Freon), and a newer alternative R-410A.
An air conditioning system does not consume refrigerant, but reuses it. As long as there are no leaks in the refrigerant circuit, there is no need to ever add more refrigerant to an air conditioning system.
Although R-22 is an effective refrigerant, if it is released into the atmosphere it can contribute to the depletion of the Earth's ozone layer. The EPA has mandated the phasing out the use of R-22. It is being replaced by R-410A.
As of 2010, manufacturers are required to make all new air conditioners with R-410A. However, R-22 is still available for sale in existing pre-2010-manufactured equipment, and for use in servicing existing R-22 equipment. By 2020, R-22 will no longer be manufactured, but will still be recycled and available for sale.

Panthers' GM search offers study in contrasts
Panthers owner Jerry Richardson will move into the next phase of his search for a new general manager next week.
Panthers will retain head coach Rivera
The Panthers have decided to retain head coach Ron Rivera, according to the Charlotte Observer.
The Panthers on Tuesday waived the slumping Justin Medlock and replaced him with Gano.||||||| Carolina (2-8) signed Gano, a free agent, to a two-year deal after Medlock missed his last three field goals. Gano spent 2009-11 with the Washington Redskins, playing in 36 games and converting 59 of 80 field goal attempts (73.8 percent) with a long of 59 yards.
A person familiar with the move says the Washington Redskins have released Gano and replaced him with Billy Cundiff.||||||| The move comes one day after Gano had appeared to win the kicking job. His lone competition, Neil Rackers, was cut on Monday.
The Redskins cut Neil Rackers on Monday, giving Gano the kicking duties for another season despite an NFL-high 10 missed field goal attempts in 2011.||||||| Coach Mike Shanahan said Gano "won the statistical battle in practice" and that the 25-year-old kicker gets "undue criticism" because the blocks last season weren't the kicker's fault.
The Washington Redskins on Sunday cut Shayne Graham, leaving incumbent Gano as lone remaining kicker at training camp.||||||| Gano ranked last in the NFL in field goal accuracy last year, but he was 3 for 3 against the Steelers on Friday. Fantasy owners may want to give him a shot since the Washington offense will likely have trouble reaching the end zone, giving Gano more chances to kick field goals.
Shaun Suisham was cut Tuesday by the Redskins, who replaced him with Gano from the United Football League.||||||| Gano kicked the winning field goal in overtime for the Las Vegas Locomotives in the first UFL title game last month. He is from Florida State and spent training camp with the Baltimore Ravens.

Family and friends to honour tragic teen
Updated 11:10am Saturday 22nd February 2014 in News By Beren Cross, @BerenCross
A MEMORIAL to teenager Ashley McKinnon will be held in Moredon today, with 200 balloons to be released in his honour.
Ashley, 17, fell from the top floor of Wyvern car park shortly before 9.30pm on Thursday, February 13 and died shortly after.
At 4pm today, family and friends will release the yellow balloons from the playing fields which stand between Akers Way and Manor Crescent, to the west of St Mary's Church.
Sarah Day, 54, of Manor Crescent, who has known Ashley since he was born, is organising the tribute and has said anyone who knew Ashley or wishes to pay their respects may attend the event. Sarah has also said Ashley's mother has travelled from Birmingham to attend the memorial.
"His mum will be there. She told me she's been overwhelmed by what's happened. The whole situation has been a lot to take," said Sarah.
"There's been lots of interest in the memorial. My grandchildren grew up with Ashley and this is for them and the kids in the community who knew him.
"This is for the people who truly knew him from the Moredon community. Anyone can come who knew him. I wanted to do something before the funeral."
The site for the balloon release will trigger many memories for those who knew Ashley as a child.
Sarah said many of their fondest and funniest memories were captured on that patch of grass. It would also provide the first sight of Ashley as he walked home from Hreod Parkway School.
"He used to go over there into the field for sneaky cigarettes in the bushes, even though I could see him from my bedroom window doing it," said Sarah.
"He played football over there too. He would always be moaning if he ever got a kick on the shins or a tackle. It was his field. He was always over there doing something."
The balloons are a nod to Ashley's love for popping them at birthdays. Sarah said he would never release them into the air.
