A look at today's Kings game vs. Minnesota; including, broadcast information, three keys to the game and probable starters.
Kings (24-44) vs. T-wolves (23-42)
Time: 7 p.m.
Where: Sleep Train Arena
Radio: 1140, 950
Pass and score: The Kings have scored 100 or more points in 16 of their past 18 games. They have 20 or more assists in 13 of their past 14 games. When the Kings play freely on offense, they tend to put more emphasis on defense.
More Toney: The Timberwolves start two point guards and also have J.J. Barea on the bench. Toney Douglas' defense on a point guard could be key if the Kings are to win a third consecutive home game.
Power game: DeMarcus Cousins, Jason Thompson and Patrick Patterson should be able to control the game and give the Kings an advantage against the T-wolves, who are still without All-Star power forward Kevin Love.
No. Player Pos.

Canine Eye Issues – Scratched Cornea – Conjunctivitis
If you notice your dog squinting and eye(s) tearing it can be a sign of an eye injury or infection.
In my case my girl had a scratched cornea. The vet does a die test and uses a black light to see the scratch.
If you have ever had a scratched cornea you know how painful it is.
According to my vet, while a human will heal very quickly from this, dogs take much longer. Often 4 or more weeks. This is because the blood flow to the cornea is not as efficient as it is in humans.
The treatment is a triple antibiotic ophthalmic ointment along with another ointment for pain.
My vet prescribed the antibiotic 2-3 times a day for 2 weeks and the pain ointment every 3 days.
A recheck in 14 days showed she was healing but needed more time.
We continue treatment for another 2 weeks and do a recheck again.
You can use a human antibiotic ointment for eyes if your vet will give you a prescription.
Note: Be careful what the pharmacist gives you. Make sure the ointment does not contain any type of steroid (some human forms do) as this should never be used with a cornea injury according to my vet.
Note: as the eyes are connected to the sinus and mouth, the pain meds can cause drooling or foaming at the mouth because they are bitter tasting.
Dogs can also get conjunctivitis and you would usually see a yellow to green discharge indicating infection and it needs to be treated by your vet.
It is contagious so be sure and wash your hands after treating your dog. I also believe it can be passed to humans but check with your vet.
According to my vet a white or beige discharge is most likely allergies (but should be checked by your vet). For that I flush the eyes 2x/day with warm "sea salt" water and it usually clears up in about a week.

#1 (10 weeks) hit single by Kanye West in 2005
Heartworkproves that this band, which once buried technical perfection beneath layers of grotesque noise, is capable of shining as cleanly as the steel H.R. Giger sculpture on the cover of this death-metal classic. All of the bludgeoned progressions … see full wiki
The album is defined by its brilliant riffs: the sleek guitar harmony of "This Mortal Coil"; the toxic metal grooves of "Buried Dreams" and "Arbeit Macht Fleisch"; ripping chugga thrash-fests of "Heartwork" and "Carnal Forge"; the stop-start meltdown of "Doctrinal Expletives"; and so on and so forth. In terms of quality _and_ quantity, the riffs on this one album top the entire careers of most metal bands. I'm always blown away when I listen to this album -- the writing is just _that_ good. The guitarwork is totally imaginative and intense and brilliant. Michael Amott is a guitarist to rival John Petrucci, and naturally Bill Steer is a stunner as well. This guitar duo is easily up there with other master pairings like Murray-Smith and Wichers-Frenning. (If only Amott's current band, Arch Enemy, was as good as his work on this album! Then the dissolution of Carcass would not be so unfortunate.)
The mix's low-end is kind of "fwumpy" and Jeff Walker's snarling vocals sound synthetic and weird sometimes (although I like them anyway). These are niggling points in any case -- this is essential for metal fans.
*And* that sleek H.R. Giger sculpture on the cover sure is sweet... Heck, even if the music was awful it'd be a nice addition to the collection just to look at it.
What did you think of this review?

Before I saw that the WWE was holding a tournament with NXT stars to earn a spot in the 2013 Royal Rumble, I had already made my choice for what "surprise" entrant I wanted to see in the match. Now that a tournament is in place, my surprise won't be much of a surprise, but I digress. I really hope that it ends up being Adrian Neville. I've blogged about him before and I really can't say enough great things about the guy. The artist formerly known as PAC is definitely a future Superstar in the WWE, it's just a matter of time. With his recent signing though, I'm not holding my breath that he'll win the tournament, but I'd love to see him get a little "prime time" action on the main roster.
So, Neville is my pick. I polled the
My 1-2-3 Cents Facebook
friends to see who they wanted to see entry the Rumble this year and why. Lots of great choices, thanks to all who participated.
Sam Banks: "
The Hurricane. I would mark if I heard 'Stand Back' come over the speakers. Not a big name, but would be fun, and better than Carlito or Shelton."
Greg Mehocko: "
Charlie Haas BUT (wait for it) coming out in his old WWE schtick of impersonating a WWE Superstar. Can you imagine the pop when Stone Cold's glass shatters before Haas comes out? What do you mean I'm re-hashing an old angle? I thought we were talking about the WWE.
Stone Cold! Stone Cold! Stone Cold!

Randy Livingston:
Glass shatter
'Stone Cold' Steve Austin runs to the ring, Stunners every SOB over the top rope, wins the Rumble, begins celebrating with a few beers. Grabs a mic and calls out the Rock for some unfinished business. CM Punk comes out pissed at Austin and tries to run him down. Austin laughs in his face and of course kick, wham, Stunner."
Ken Johnson:
"I think it would be fun to see someone like Vader back. I always like watching all the wrestlers try to lift the big guys over the top ropes."
Adam Hackbarth:
"John Morrison in a Street Fighter Vega gimmick."
J.M. Knight:
"I would love to see some of the old WCW Luchadores come out. The reaction would be priceless. 'Who are you?' chants."
Will Jones:
"'Stone Cold' ET. Because he's freakin' hilarious.
Jason DeBoer:
"Bob 'Mr. Hall of Fame' Backlund.
Corey Ellet:
"Brock Lesnar coming back would definitely be exciting! That's my best guess anyway. And I'm also a huge 'Stone Cold' ET fan too, so that would be an acceptable choice."
Craig Cox:
"Jason DeBoer."
"With a tear in my eye..."
Flair wins the 92 Rumble

Erik Stensland:
"Ric Flair, because he is the greatest to ever step foot in the squared circle and he could school half the wrestlers on the roster even at the age of 63."
Rusty Smith:
"Kassius Ohno. It's time for Hero to graduate to either SmackDown! or Raw."
Weston White:
"Shelton Benjamin or Gilberg."
Casey Hammond:
"I think Undertaker will be back. But 'Stone Cold' or Goldberg would be cool to see again."

HILLSBOROUGH — Orange football coach Pat Moser says "We know what we're getting into" when his Panthers visit Havelock for the N.C. High School Atletic Association 2A East Region championship on Friday.
Orange football coach Pat Moser says "We know what we're getting into" when his Panthers visit Havelock for the N.C. High School Atletic Association 3A East Region championship on Friday.
"Havelock is just destroying everyone they play," Moser said this week.
Likewise, Havelock head coach Jim Bob Bryant said he feels he understands Moser's offensive scheme, which hasn't changed much since Bryant was offensive coordinator for a 14-0 Williamston team that beat Moser's Graham team 40-20 for a 1999 state title.
Moser, who retired briefly after Graham won a state championship in 2000, will admit he considered overhauling his strategies after his second team at Orange went 2-9 in 2009.
"I just decided I wasn't going to reinvent the wheel; I was going to stick with what I was positive would work," Moser said.
"We started a lot of young guys who took their lumps, and now that has paid off for them. I can't tell you how much fun it is to go from 2-9 to 11-2 in two years. It's re-invigorated me as a coach," Moser said.
While this year's shotgun-based Havelock team in far different from those run-run-run Williamston champions, Moser still sees some of the same intensity.
"Havelock has gotten a reputation in the past few years as a tough team to beat," he said.
Led by University of South Carolina commit Pharoh Cooper at quarterback, Havelock has won 12 straight since losing 34-33 to 4A New Bern, which itself still undefeated heading into its showdown Friday with Scotland County. The Rams beat five playoff teams during the year by an average margin of 38.7 points.
Orange likewise has played some of the best. Its only defeats came against a pair of teams (Carrboro and Cardinal Gibbons) that ended their regular seasons undefeated and ranked in the state's Top 10 by the Associated Press.
"I think we've been battle tested," Moser said. "We've had four or five games this year against teams that are phenomenal, and we either won or at least held our own and had a chance to win at the end. That's encouraging for us."
Friday's NCHSAA 3A game pitting East No. 5 seed Orange (11-2) at No. 1 seed Havelock (13-1) will mark the fourth straight year that the Rams have been in the East region final. Havelock lost to Eastern Alamance in 2009 and 2010, and last year the Rams beat Cleveland 64-7 on the way to capturing the 2011 NCHSAA 2A championship.
Last week, Havelock pounded Washington 57-7 in the state quarterfinals, getting all eight of its touchdowns on the ground.
Orange expects to attack that with an almost perfectly balanced Wing-T offense.
Orange right wingback Jalen Pittman has rushed for 1069 yards this season and left wingback Patrick Pettiford for 1,019 yards. Quarterback Sean Motley has passed for 1,800.
Orange is on the road for the second straight week after defeating Mideast-pod top seed Eastern Alamance 14-13 in the state quarterfinals. Not a problem, Moser said.
"It's a long way to go for a football game, but we're just glad to still be in it," he said.

Mini Bio (1)
Born in Los Angeles but raised in Manhattan and educated at Middlebury College and Carnegie Tech, James Cromwell - the son of noted film director John Cromwell - studied acting at Carnegie-Mellon. He went into the theater (like both his parents) doing everything from Shakespeare to experimental plays. He started doing television in 1974, gaining some notice in a recurring role as Archie Bunker's buddy Stretch Cunningham in All in the Family (1971), made his film debut in 1976, and goes back to the stage periodically. Some of his more noted film roles have been in Revenge of the Nerds (1984), Star Trek: First Contact (1996) and the surprise classic about a charming pig, Babe (1995). He garnered some of the best reviews of his career - many of which said he should have received an Oscar - for his role as a corrupt, conniving police captain in L.A. Confidential (1997).

Keeping Your Kitchen Safe
Beef Food Safety Tips from Peggy Bledsoe, Houston County Extension Agent
There's an invisible enemy in your kitchen ready to strike. You know him as bacteria! You can't see him, smell him or feel him, but he can make you and those you care about sick. He can invade the food you eat and cause food borne illness. You can fight bacteria and make the meals and snacks you prepare safe by following four easy steps! Clean-Separate-Cook- and Chill!
First, let's focus on clean! Bacteria can spread throughout the
kitchen and get into cutting boards, utensils, sponges and
counter tops. Therefore, wash hands and surfaces often. Wash
your hands with hot soapy water before handling food and after
using the bathroom, changing diapers and handling pets.
Counter tops, dishes and utensils should be washed after preparing each food item and before you move on to the next item.
Use paper towels or clean cloths to wipe up kitchen surfaces or spills. These cloths should be washed often in the hot cycle of your washing machine.
Next, think about separate. Bacteria can spread from one food product to another. This is especially true when handling raw meats, poultry and seafood. Therefore, keep these foods and their juices away from ready-to-eat foods.
Separate raw meats, poultry and seafood from other foods in your
grocery cart and in your refrigerator. Store ready-to-eat foods
in the upper portion of your refrigerator and store raw meats
below them.
Never place cooked food on a plate which previously held raw meat, poultry or seafood.
The next step is cook. Food safety experts agree that foods are properly cooked when they are heated for a long enough time and at a high enough temperature to kill the harmful bacteria that cause food borne illness.
Always use a clean thermometer, which measures the internal temperature of cooked foods, to make sure meat, poultry, casseroles and other foods are cooked thoroughly.
Cook roasts and steaks to at least 145ø F. Whole poultry should
be cooked to 180ø F. for doneness.
Bring sauces, soups and gravy to a boil when reheating. Heat other leftovers thoroughly.
When preparing food in the oven, set the oven to at least 325ø F. Cook food to the safe recommended temperature. Always check the temperature in several places with a food thermometer.
you are using a convection oven to prepare food, you may reduce
the oven temperature by 25ø F.
Refrigerate or freeze perishables, prepared foods and leftovers within two hours or sooner.
Never defrost food at room temperature. Thaw food in the refrigerator, under cold running water or in the microwave.
Marinate foods in the refrigerator. Use food grade plastic, stainless steel or glass containers. Marinade must be boiled before it can be used as a sauce. Do not reuse marinade for other foods.
Divide food into shallow containers. For example, slice road beef into portions for service. Be sure containers do not exceed 4 inches in depth. Place food in the refrigerator
Don't overfill the refrigerator. Cool air must circulate to keep food safe.
Clean, separate, cook and chill are simple concepts, yet we often fail to follow them when handling food. Review your food safety practices. Determine where you need to make improvements. Practice-Clean, separate, cook and chill and make the food you serve your family as safe as possible.

Pekka Rinne made 19 saves for his second consecutive shutout, leading the Nashville Predators to a 3-0 victory over the Phoenix Coyotes on Thursday night.
Gabriel Bourque, Nick Spaling and Mike Fisher had the Nashville goals.
Rinne has shutouts in three of his past four starts and has not allowed a goal in his last 137 minutes, 41 seconds of action. He has been strong this season on a Predators team that has struggled to score.
Bourque scored the game's first goal at 2:40 of the third period.

The good news is that Connecticut is the most generous state in New England when it comes to donating to charity. The bad news is that the state ranks 45th in the nation when it comes to percentage of a salary donated.
A study by the Chronicle of Philanthropy analyzed income levels and Internal Revenue Service records to determine what percentage of salaries each state gives to charity.
Utah topped the list with 10.6 percent of each salary donated, followed by the District of Columbia at 7.7 percent and Mississippi at 7.2 percent.
In terms of total donations, Connecticut ranked 22 with $2.3 billion given.
According to the authors of the study, "Connecticut ranks first among New England states in giving as a percentage of discretionary income, but the state's 3.3-percent rate is well below the national average."
New Hampshire donated the least with 2.5 percent. Maine and Vermont fared slightly higher at 2.8 percent.
Peter Panepento, assistant managing editor at the Chronicle of Philanthropy, told NPR that religious donations are the most prevalent.
"States like Utah and Alabama and Mississippi all end up very high on our list," he said. "And states where [there's] more of a secular mindset, particularly in New England and all along the coast, tended to show up lower on the list."
Connecticut residents can at least take solace in their health. The state was recently ranked one of the least obese in the country.
Stamford, in particular, was found to be 124th out of 11,522 towns ranked, having made $104.8 million in contributions total. When breaking down the numbers by percentage of income contributed, however, Stamford drops to 6,916 of 11,522, contributing only 3.7-percent of it's income.

With the on-again, off-again chances of achieving wide-ranging immigration reform, there's much to be exasperated about. But more frustrating are the smaller, slam-dunk situations that could be settled by other means.
Take the case of Sergio Garcia, who has a law degree and passed the bar exam in California but cannot practice because he is an unlawful immigrant. The state of California is pushing the envelope with a piece of controversial legislation that would allow Garcia to ply his trade even though he's residing in the U.S. illegally.
A logic-defying law that would allow such immigrants to be admitted to the California Bar is sitting on Gov. Jerry Brown's desk doing a few things: awaiting the governor's signature, again challenging the federal government's supremacy over the states on immigration issues, and antagonizing those who are already against any reform that includes a path to citizenship because it seems to reward those who have broken the law.
What's needed in this case is not a divisive and ridiculous state-based loophole but a bare minimum of common sense.
For Pete's sake, can't someone just grant this guy legal residency?
In the face of a broken immigration system with few prospects for reform, can't the Department of Homeland Security, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) or U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services just get their act together and open an Office of Sense and Sanity?
Garcia isn't some repeat offender who willingly broke the law and is now banking on pity to get him a pass to the front of the proverbial waiting line for citizenship. In addition to having worked his way through college and passed the bar exam on the first try, Garcia has, by all accounts, jumped through every immigration-related hoop he's been asked to clear.

Lost opportunities, turnovers and questionable coaching strategy again doom Boston College football in Winston-Salem.

Exploring possible solutions to the Eagles football head coaching situation. At 2-5 (0-4 ACC), head coach Frank Spaziani's seat is getting warm.
Boston College coach Frank Spaziani has the look of a head coach totally and utterly defeated.

The man accused in the murders of two elderly victims in Clinton is scheduled to be in Clinton Municipal Court later this month.
According to Clinton Interim Police Chief Mike Warren, Willie Williams Jr., 47, of Clinton, will be in court June 24 at 1 p.m. in connection to the murders of a Clinton couple killed Thursday night.
The murder victims were identified as Arthur Hodge, 89, and his 86-year-old wife, Maxine Hodge. Stewart confirms both victims were stabbed and Arthur Hodge suffered blunt force trauma.
The couple lived in a home at 500 Brookwood drive.
Interim Police Chief Warren, says Williams told authorities with the Jackson Police Department that he killed the couple around 9:30 p.m. Thursday night.
Hinds county prosecutors say this isn't the first time Williams confessed to a violent crime. District Attorney Robert Smith says in 2005 he was convicted and sentenced to 10 years in prison, with five years suspended, for an aggravated assault.
"The victim in that case in 04' survived a brutal attack in her bathroom, where he stabbed her multiple times in the chest and the victim received over 30 stitches," said Smith.
Clinton police were notified around 2:51 a.m. Friday morning by the Jackson Police Department that they had a person in custody that claimed to have killed someone in Clinton.
Williams led Jackson police to the home where the bodies were discovered. The murder suspect knew the couple and may have done odd jobs for them from time to time. It is believed that there was a disagreement over money and that may have led to the murders.
Warren confirms it is now believed that the relationship between the victims and suspect had been off and on for several years. Williams had performed some work in the past but over the last year, had not worked, but had borrowed money from the victims.
Mississippi Bureau of Investigation is assisting Clinton Police with the crime scene.

CATEGORIES Horror, CinematicalBeing a horror fan can be a blessing or a curse when it comes to buying and receiving gifts. On the one hand, shopping seems easy since many horror film fiends still play with or collect toys, have a wicked sense of humor and nothing really offends them (unless, for example, you buy a gorehound a 'Twilight' t-shirt). On the other, you run the risk of boring them to tears with the dreaded generic spooky gift that can be found in any mall across the country (think of anthologies which feature the same 5+ authors, or worse, anything from Hot Topic). With the holiday season creeping up quickly, many people are scrambling to get their gift on, so here are a few ideas that should help you along on your horrifying shopping experience.
For the 'Alien' enthusiast:
The 'Alien Anthology' Blu-ray set has been getting excellent reviews, particularly from our own Scott Weinberg. Ask him about it on twitter and feast your eyes on the limited edition "Egg Package," which is due out soon. Buy me!
For the nerd who is feeling zombified:
Matt Busch is the brainchild behind Hollywood is Dead where he re-imagines some of cinema's most treasured gems and zombifies them. Buy me!
For the gory someone who thinks that one is the loneliest number:
If your special someone has a penchant for mad scientists in jack boots and horrifying human experiments, then the "Human Santapede" tree ornament will make the perfect gift. Lipstattoo wants the magic of Tom Six's 'Human Centipede' to live on forever, so she also has a necklace version of the same design -- minus the jaunty Santa hats. Buy me!
For the 'Psycho' enthusiast:
Alfred Hitchcock's 'Psycho' celebrated its 50th anniversary earlier this year, and what better time than now to release a Blu-ray of the horror classic? Picture and sound are said to be top notch with a few gems amongst the extras. Buy me!
For the person who wears their horror-loving heart on their sleeve:
Vintage, zippered, quote-tastic, girly ... Fright Rags has all of your horror tee needs covered. These guys love bold designs and and big colors -- offering a wide variety of genre favorites from 'Monster Squad' and 'May,' to 'Let the Right One In' and 'It.' There's also a signed (by scream queen Linnea Quigley) and numbered, limited edition print of 'Silent Night Deadly Night' to add to your shopping cart. Buy me!
For the wannabe blood spatter analyst who leads a double life:
Showtime's black vinyl 'Dexter' apron -- à la Leatherface -- means you can bake in it, shower in it, change the oil in your car in it and more. Buy me!
For the zombie fan who knows that the Italians do it better:
KitKong's Model Mansion clearly have taste, because they're offering this badass model kit straight out of the Godfather of Gore's zombie favorite. Lucio Fulci's 'Zombi' is an Italian horror classic, and this resin sculpture (available painted and unpainted) is guaranteed to outshine all the gifts that grandma gives. Other available models like Vampirella and the 'Silent Hill' nurses are worth your perusal. Buy me!
For those responsible for the decline of western civilization:
Punk, new wave weirdos, 80's cult legends and everything in between. Alamo Drafthouse's Zack Carlson and Vulcan Video's Bryan Connolly have a shared insanity for punk rock cinema. 'Destroy All Movies!!! The Complete Guide to Punks on Film' isn't just for horror fans, but every horror fan should own a copy. Buy me!
For the videovore who worships at the altar of analog:
VHS is alive and well at Lunchmeat Magazine headquarters where rare and out-of-print tapes are revered and reviewed. The zine features original cartoons, related articles and more about cinema's esoteric, underappreciated and bizarre. While Lunchmeat dishes up a healthy serving of horror, they pay homage to other films as well. Buy me!
For the 'Exorcist' enthusiast:
See pea soup and that creepy spider/crab walk in all its Blu-ray glory! You get the original theatrical cut and the extended director's cut from 2000. Buy me!
For the camper who goes into the woods alone:
Sideshow Collectibles' goodies are for the serious horror fan and this Jason Voorhees statue is guaranteed to impress. The hand-painted and highly detailed figure (check out the carnage scattered at Jason's feet) is no shabby design and worth the price tag for rabid 'Friday the 13th' fans. Buy me!
For the Criterion enthusiast:
Our friends over at Criterion are always releasing movies that belong on any cinephile's wishlist, but this year they've brought along a trio of special treats designed to appeal to horror fans.
The new Blu-ray of David Cronenberg's 'Videodrome' features insightful interviews with the cast and crew, the complete 'Samurai Dreams' footage and nifty Betamax packaging. Buy me!
Pick up the Blu of Nobuhiko Obayashi's 'House' for Japanese weirdsies. Criterion did an excellent job with this cult favorite that will leave even the most seasoned horror fan asking, "What the hell did I just watch?" Buy me!
The visual/aural sharpness and clarity of the 'Antichrist' Blu-ray is the perfect compliment to Lars von Trier's startling and disturbingly detailed film. Buy me!
For the deadites:
Artist Olly Moss loves black and red, and does 'The Evil Dead' red right for Mondo Tees. 'Troll 2' shirts and other Austin favorites abound. Buy me!
For the extra thirsty brainiac:
While the dead rule the earth, your loved one can be swilling beverages (if they can find them ... ) in a large-and-in-charge, etched 'Walking Dead' stein. If the zombies have gotten to them already, then at least they'll have a place to store extra brains when they get the munchies. Buy me!
For the gothic horror fiend who knows it's Hammer time, all the time:
Marcus Hearn is a Hammer Films connoisseur and has written several books on the legendary studio. His latest is a real beauty -- 'The Art of Hammer Films,' which comes courtesy of Titan Books. If your horror honey prefers Christopher Lee over Edward Cullen, then this hardbound book of Hammer posters will win you points for sure. Buy me!
For the friend who still believes there are monsters in the closet:
Joshua Hoffine is in the nightmare-making business and his horror-centric photographs are like a snapshot from your favorite horror flick -- playing on all of our greatest fears. Clowns, escaped lunatics, the devil himself ... it's all there, lurking. Buy me!
For the dark-minded darling who wants an experience beyond limits:
Dark Mind Design offers apparel, prints, jewelry and fragrances for those who aren't afraid to open the box. Need further proof? Try this original, signed and numbered 'Hellraiser' inspired art print. If meat on a hook isn't their thing, then perhaps a Cthulhu necklace with pearls or a Lycan tee will make their black heart swell with holiday cheer. Buy me!
For the Lovecraft fanatic who respects his elders:
Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn. Walk with the Great Old Ones ... on your feet. Buy me!

Stanford University, 2010 - $19,450
Laparoscopic surgery is a growing surgical technique in which operations in the abdomen are performed through very small incisions (0.5-1.5 cm) compared to the larger incisions needed in traditional, open surgical procedures. Patients that undergo laparoscopic surgery enjoy shorter hospital stays and reduced instances of surgery-inflicted morbidity.
This E-Team is taking laparoscopy a step further, developing a set of laparoscopic tools that enable surgery with extremely small incisions leaving no visible scars by enabling assembly of complex tools inside the patient. Existing scar-free techniques are burdened by steep learning curves and high costs, but the E-Team's device, called ENGAGE™, requires minimal surgeon re-training and aligns with current insurance reimbursement plans.
University of Virginia, 2010 - $9,732
The laparoscopic cholecystectomy, a minimally invasive surgical procedure to remove the gallbladder, is one of the most frequent surgeries performed in the United States, with an estimated 922,000 performed annually. Although laparoscopic removal significantly decreases surgical risk and recovery time, difficulties can arise when removing a gallstone-ridden gallbladder through a twelve-millimeter port. An important step in the surgery occurs when the physician puts the gallbladder into a laparoscopic retrieval bag (endobag); gallstones bulge at the bottom of the bag and can become wedged in the removal site.
To solve the problem, this E-Team is designing an endobag that employs cross-linked synthetic fibers nestled between pieces of polyurethane to create a structure similar to a novelty finger trap. When the surgeon pulls up, the contents inside the endobag lineate (form lines) due to the resulting radial force, preventing bulging of the gallbladder during extraction. The device integrates with the current procedure and tools; no new techniques or equipment are necessary.

Committee approved a Petition for residents to consider which calls for JCP&L
to transfer their franchise rights for Montville Township
to Public Service Electric & Gas ("PSE&G"). Montville
Township agrees that

Petition, Attention: June Hercek
(July 2) On June 30th, JCP&L provided their responses to the questions submitted by the Township Committee and residents.
(June 26) The Township Committee has submitted a letter to the Board of Public Utilities objecting to JCP&L's plan to submit their application to the BPU immediately upon making their selection of a route and without providing an opportunity for public discussion of and objections to their selected route. The Committee has requested that the BPU require that JCP&L conduct public information sessions with those who would be impacted by the selected route prior to making their submission to the Board.
(June 18) JCP&L has acknowledged receipt of the questions submitted by Montville Township regarding the proposed transmission line from Montville to East Hanover. JCP&L has indicated they will answer these questions within a 2-week timeframe – specifically, on or before June 30. Once Montville Township has this information, it will be posted on the Township's website.
(June 11) During the meeting with representatives of JCP&L, it was announced that the township will submit questions regarding this project to JCP&L. The questions will be answered and both the questions and answers will be published here on this website. In addition to the questions posed at the meeting, questions were also submitted via e-mail after the meeting.
(June 10) Representatives from JCP&L will be at tonight's Township Committee Meeting at 8:00pm at the Municipal Building, 195 Changebridge Road. They will briefly
outline their initial November 2013 report "Energizing the Future": Ensuring
Service Reliability for JCP&L Customers - Proposed Transmission Line from
Montville to East Hanover, Morris County. However, since JCP&L has not
made a final decision on the exact location of their proposed upgrades, they
noted that they are not in a position, at this time, to field questions during
tonight's meeting. Some facts on the proposed upgrades: The Montville-Whippany Reinforcement Project, a seven-mile, 230-kilovolt upgrade of service between their existing substation on Changebridge Road in Montville and one in East Hanover. Their recommended route for the upgrade would follow the existing path of the recently upgraded PSE&G service through Montville Township. However, there are alternate routes being considered that would take the lines, on their 100' high poles, through other areas of the township. This will be an opportunity for township residents to hear information about the plans before final decisions on the project are made. Additional information about the project is available on the website of First Energy, JCP&L's parent company.

My new go to pack for the long run.

Comments about CamelBak Ultra LR™ Vest:
I got this new pack just in time for this years Big Sur Marathon. I saw the forecast was going to be warm and knew I could use all the capacity I could get. I did not have a chance to test it out prior to the run so I was a little nervous about trying something new on a run of this length. Thankfully I was plesently suprised. No chaffing, very little pack movement, no breathing restriction, enought room for my shell jacket/food/etc, and most importantly for big sur plenty of water. Two notes 1). The retention straps for the front pockets kept slipping loose with a full water bottle(3/4 full was no issue)and 2)It helps to keep the load in the front pockets balanced so the pack does not pull to one side.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

What is The Book of Numbers?
The Book of Numbers continues the narrative of the Israelites: they once lived in Canaan, travelled to Egypt where they were enslaved, and now return to Canaan to take control of the land. They have received the Levitical laws so are prepared to be God's Chosen People. Upon arrival at Canaan, though, they are too afraid to go to war so the parents are condemned to die in the wilderness while the children are given a second chance.
Facts About the Book of Numbers
- Numbers is the fourth book the Bible, the Torah and, the Pentateuch
- Numbers has 36 chapters & 1,288 verses
- Chapter & verse divisions are of Christian origin
- Numbers covers about 39 years
Important Characters in Numbers
- Moses: Leader of the Israelites
- Aaron: Moses' older brother, High Priest of the Israelites
- Eleazar: Aaron's son, inherits the office of High Priest
- Balaam: Prophet who puts a curse on the Israelites
Who Wrote the Book of Numbers?
Traditionally the authorship of Book of Numbers was, like the rest of the Pentateuch, ascribed to Moses. Today scholars reject this and believe that Numbers was constructed out of multiple earlier sources. In fact, Numbers actually references some likely sources, including a "Book of the Wars of the Lord" and popular songs.
According to the Documentary Hypothesis, much of the Book of Numbers comes from the Priestly Source, which might explain the amount of time devoted to priestly concerns at the beginning. Other sources, like the Yahwist and Elohist, may have be represented through ancient epic traditions.
When Was the Book of Numbers Written?
Although some of the sources of the Book of Numbers are probably quite old, scholars believe that it acquired it's final form (more or less) in the 5th century BCE. This was at the time when the Persians conquered the Babylonian Empire and ended the Exile, allowing the Israelites to return home if they wished.
Book of Numbers Summary
Numbers 1-12: The Book of Numbers picks up after the extensive, legalistic interlude of Leviticus: now that the Israelites have all the laws and regulations they need to be a special, chosen people, so they are ready march off from Mt. Sinai to Canaan. Apparently, nearly a year passed at Mt. Sinai. First, though, a census is done to better organize everyone.
Numbers 13-14: Once the Israelites arrive at Moab, though, they learn that Canaan is controlled by very powerful people who are unlikely to just give it up simply because some travelers claim that a god gave that land to a distant ancestor. The Israelites thus refuse to march into Canaan, which outrages God because this demonstrates a deplorable lack of faith in his ability to take other people's land from them.
Numbers 15-25: God orders the Israelites to march around in circles in the desert for about 40 years, or until everyone over 20 has died. This allows God to give Canaan to the children of the Israelites who had been freed from slavery. Presumable the children would be raised without enough fanatical faith — and fear of the consequence of disobedience — that they would gladly follow God's command to take Canaan from its current inhabitants.
Numbers 26-36: The Israelites arrive at Moab again and conduct a new census to reorganize. Joshua becomes the new leader. Moses is set aside as leader of the Israelites because of his failure to completely obey God; while he can see Canaan, he won't be allowed to enter. This time the Israelites don't hesitate to invade Canaan and even divide up the spoils before beginning the war. The inhabitants of Canaan are to be slaughtered in large numbers, though sometimes women are spared so they can be divided up as spoils.
Book of Numbers Themes
Wilderness: The Book of Numbers takes place entirely in the wilderness and that's why the Jewish name for this text is simply "Wilderness." Travelling through the wilderness makes it possible for the Israelites to travel from the psychological state of slavery to the psychological state of taking control of their own destiny. The importance of the wilderness to make transformations possible recurs throughout the Bible
Covenants: Numbers explores the consequences of a number of covenants, starting all the way back in Genesis with Abraham and continuing down through the time of the Exodus out of Egypt. God is portrayed as consistently upholding his end of the covenants, even if it takes a long time, whereas the Israelites are portrayed as consistently faith-less.
Divine Guidance: Moses may lead the people of Israel, but it's God who is responsible for their deliverance from slavery, God who is responsible for their survival in the wilderness, and God who will give them a new land to call home. God even "lives" among the Israelites in the Tabernacle he tells them to construct.
Every step of the way, the people are entirely dependent upon God for everything — a situation which arguably contradicts the idea that they are undergoing a transformation away from the psychology of slavery. This contradiction is exacerbated by the fact that upon invasion, the Israelites are to offer their enemies the chance to become slaves instead of being slaughtered.
Holiness: The concept of holiness and ritual purity is established in Leviticus; in Numbers, we see the consequences as the Israelites are required to be "holy," which means to live up to the high standards set by God. It requires bigger acts like avoiding sin and it requires little acts like not eating or wearing certain things. Most fundamentally, being holy and pure means following God's commands — all of them.

Why are there more homeless in Downtown PA
Original post made by Curious on Oct 17, 2006
And if you have the same perception, any conjecture as to why?
on Oct 18, 2006 at 10:04 am
Like any good business the homeless go where the money is. With the new homeless support center nearby it's a win-win situation.
on Oct 18, 2006 at 1:39 pm
I shop in Los Altos, Mountain View and Menlo Park and Sunnyvale. Nowhere is the homeless/begging problem as bad as in Palo Alto. Other cities don't tolerate begging and loitering....it is bad for business.
on Oct 18, 2006 at 1:45 pm
I also shop and get gas in Mountain View and love the new Whole Foods on the Mountain View/Los Altos border! BTW the Trader Joe's in Mountain View does not have in-your-face solicitors like you find at the Menlo Park TJ's.

Should Yoga Studios Ask Students to Sign a Liability Waiver?As liability issues move into the forefront of the business of yoga, teachers and studios need to start asking some tough questions about whether smart business practices are consistent with the spiritual tenets of yoga. This month we'll explore one of the most important issues facing professionals today: Can a yoga studio or yoga teacher meet liability concerns without compromising the intention to be fully present and offer wisdom and compassion within the practice?
Although there have been few, if any, reported lawsuits stemming from injuries in a yoga class, there have been some claims (See "Insight From Injury," May/June 2003). This makes the threat of liability, while small, nonetheless real. Still, liability concerns need not dominate, but rather can engage yoga studios and teachers in a thoughtful reflection of how to balance appropriate legal protection with the ethical and spiritual commitments yoga embodies.
One way to address liability concerns is by having students sign a consent form. Such a form discloses the risks and benefits of the yoga practice and allows the student to formally acknowledge his awareness of the disclosed risks.
Since yoga is, above all, a healing practice, we might take as our model the health care system. The law requires health care providers to provide "informed consent," disclosing to their patients the material benefits and risks of proposed treatments. Although yoga instructors may not literally fall within this legal rule, the notion of yoga as therapy suggests that disclosure of potential major risks is appropriate.
And there is another document that provides even greater protection to the studio or teacher: the liability waiver. The liability waiver goes beyond a mere disclosure of benefits and risks by asking the signer to assume legal responsibility for these risks and also to promise not to sue if an injury results. Hospitals and medical clinics have their patients sign consent forms and, in many cases, liability waiver ("exculpatory") clauses before surgery and even outpatient procedures; so, increasingly, do chiropractors, acupuncturists, and even massage therapists. But balanced against the possible legal protection a liability waiver may afford is the insertion of a written legal document into the relationship between student and yoga studio or teacher. Here's what you should know before you decide where you stand:
While informed consent is legally imperative in health care, signing a form will not prevent someone injured, angered, or offended from suing or later winning the lawsuit. Courts disallow the use of forms to avoid legal responsibility for truly negligent behavior. If an instructor, for example, has injured (or unnecessarily invaded) a student through an unnecessarily forceful (or intrusive) adjustment and the student makes a claim for negligence or battery, the form will not provide a defense. Given this knowledge, how can studios and teachers find the right balance? Here are some practical suggestions for reducing potential liability exposure while maintaining a safe and respectful studio environment.

Do Good: How To Help Japan
March 14, 2011 at 9:31 am , by Amanda Wolfe
The videos, images and stories of the earthquake and tsunami in Japan are devastating, and it seems like every hour there's more bad news: aftershocks, nuclear explosions. It's easy to feel a sense of utter helplessness as we watch in shock, halfway around the world. But there are ways we can help:
The American Red Cross already has medical relief teams on the ground in Japan. To donate $10, text REDCROSS to 90999 or visit their site to donate any amount.
Save the Children, which has operated in Japan for the last 25 years, is also mobilizing to help children and families affected by the disaster. They've set up a special fund for Japan, and you can donate online or text JAPAN to 20222 to donate $10.
MeryCorps is working with its partner in Japan, Peace Winds, which is helicoptering in tents and supplies for homeless victims today. Click here to donate online.
Global Giving has a special fund set up for earthquake relief and is working with other organizations on the ground, like the International Medical Corps and Save the Children, to bring aid to victims.
If you have loved ones living in Japan, Google set up a 2011 earthquake people finder to help you connect. CNN also has a big list of additional ways to help the relief effort.

Do Good: Help for Chile
March 1, 2010 at 11:37 am , by Amanda Wolfe
It's hard to believe we're talking about another devastating earthquake so soon after the events in Haiti. The quake that struck Chile on Saturday (one of the most powerful in recorded history) has killed more than 700 people and displaced millions more. Relief organizations are already working with the Chilean government to get aid to the region. But if you're wondering how you can help, like Haiti (and most natural disaster relief efforts), usually the best way is to donate money, which will get aid to Chile much faster than other kinds of donations.
The Mobile Giving Foundation (which helped organize many Haiti mobile fundraisers, including the one by the Red Cross), already has a list of groups you can donate to via text message:
- Text the word "CHILE" to 20222 to donate $10 on behalf of World Vision.
- Text the word "CHILE" to 52000 to donate $10 on behalf of the Salvation Army.
- Text the word "SAVE" to 20222 to donate $10 on behalf of Save the Children.
- Text the word "CHILE" to 85944 to donate $10 on behalf of International Medical Corp.
Organizations like the American Red Cross and UNICEF don't have a specific Chile donation pages set up (yet), but those groups use donations to get aid where it's needed most, if you'd prefer to donate the old-fashioned way instead of via text.

Helping in Haiti: One Doctor's Story
February 2, 2010 at 7:12 pm , by Julie Bain
Bruce Dubin is a doctor, lawyer and teacher—who also wants to do some good in the world. That's a rare combo. I saw Dr. Dubin last week in Colleyville, Texas. He lives in Colorado but had just come from Haiti to attend the funeral of his friend (and my beloved brother-in-law), Dr. Richard Grossman, who had died unexpectedly of a heart attack. Nothing else could have gotten him to leave his efforts to help in Haiti, he said, and he will go back soon. Here's a bit about what he saw and experienced while there.
When you first heard about the earthquake, what did you think?
When I saw the announcement on television, I knew it was going to be bad, and I just felt like I had to go. So I hooked up with three of my former medical students (above; with Dr. Dubin on the left), and they all had the same gut feeling I did. One of them had some connections in the Dominican Republic and with a church group that was going to Haiti, so that's how we started our trek.
What did you see when you arrived?
Outside Port-au-Prince, it almost looked like life as usual in Haiti. But as we got closer to Port-au-Prince, the scene changed and it looked like a war zone, with rubble and bodies everywhere. The smell was so bad, everyone had to wear face masks. It was hot. Dust from the debris was settling in the air, and there was smoke from some oil fires as well. The students with me saw some things that no one should ever have to see in their lives.
Sounds like you were early responders. When did you get there?
The earthquake happened on Tuesday; we got there and set up our first clinic on Friday. We couldn't believe the lack of any initial response, at least on the part of the U.N. The first night or two, we saw maybe one or two U.N. vehicles with a couple of people driving around. But that was about it. Some of the bodies had been removed from the street by Sunday, but people were pretty desperate for food and drinking water. And there was a shortage of basic medical supplies. We were seeing children and adults who had been under rubble or had been injured and had open wounds, lacerations, fractured bones, and they were running the risk of developing severe infections and losing their limbs.

How to Help Haiti
January 14, 2010 at 1:35 am , by Amanda Wolfe
If you've seen any of the news coverage of the earthquake in Haiti—and the total devastation it's caused—you're probably wondering how you can help. According to the Center for International Disaster Information (CIDI), monetary donations are almost always the best and fastest way to help victims of a natural disaster, often because of the logistics, time, and money it takes to assemble, transport, and distribute other collected goods. (CIDI info found via The White House Blog.) Here are ways you can make a donation that will help get relief to Haiti quickly. Even $5 or $10 can go a long way, especially when thousands of people contribute.
Red Cross: Send a $10 donation by texting 'Haiti' to 90999, or donate and get more information online. (You may have seen this one spreading on Twitter and Facebook.)
Mercy Corps: Donate online to help get food, shelter and other supplies to Haiti via this organization's emergency response team and other efforts.
CARE: This group, which is dedicated to fighting poverty, already has staff in Haiti and is sending additional emergency workers. Contribute online.
UNICEF: Nearly half of Haiti's 10 million citizens are kids. Help children and families affected by the earthquake by making a donation online.
Wyclef Jean's Yele Haiti Foundation: Text "Yele" to 501501 to donate $5 to the popular Haitian singer's foundation, which is using 100% of funds raised for relief. (This fundraiser's also been popular on Twitter.)
You can also check this list (which is being updated periodically) from the San Francisco Chronicle for more ways to help.
UPDATE: There have been reports of donation hoaxes on Twitter, email and Facebook so before you text a donation (or follow a link from email to donate online), to be safe go directly to the organization's website to make sure it's legit. Almost every group has Haiti relief information and links to donate on their homepage right now.

Yeah, the license is bad. Try the steps here:
I have this problem too but the suggested fix won't work for me. AutoCAD 2012 still runs fine but the AutoCAD 2011 which I downloaded today will not launch, in the same way as described by users in this thread.
I cannot check the ADLM file or rename the FLEXnet file because in my PC (XP, 32 bit) the file tree is not as described in your fix.
Your fix says C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Autodesk\ADLM
In the 'run' box, I try to open C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Autodesk\ADLM but I get
"Windows cannot find 'C:\ Documents'. Please make sure you typed correctly... "
However, I can get as far as the application data folder if I cut the last two items off
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\
but that application data folder does not contain a folder or file called Autodesk or AutoCAD.
I had expected to be prompted to verify my license the first time I launched but there was no such prompt.
Please can you suggest anything? Thanks.
Nudging my question to top.

Funding opportunities
Human embryonic stem cell-derived neurons as a model to discover safer estrogens for hot flashes
Funding Type:
SEED Grant
Grant Number:
Funds requested:
$640 400
Funding Recommendations:
Not recommended
Grant approved:
Public Abstract:
Menopause begins in women one year after the last menstrual period. The average age of menopause is 51 years. Because the average life-expectancy in the US is 80 years, most women will spend at least one-third of their life after menopause. Menopause is associated with a large drop in the levels of estrogens in the blood. The drop in estrogens during the menopausal transition leads to onset of hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes, and vagina dryness. Hot flashes are prevalent and extremely bothersome to many postmenopausal women. For over 50 years, women have been taking estrogens to prevent hot flashes, because their quality of life deteriorates due to lack of sleep, heat sensation and sweating. Recently many women have abandoned hormone therapy (HT) due to concerns about potential adverse effects, including breast cancer, strokes and blood clots. Currently, all the estrogenic drugs that are effective at treating menopausal symptoms are known to promote cancer. Because of the safety concerns, many clinicians prescribe non-estrogenic drugs, such as those you to treat depression and anxiety. These drugs are not as effective as estrogens for menopausal symptoms. They also produce adverse side-effects and do not have the beneficial effects of estrogens on preventing osteoporosis. Many postmenopausal women are anxiously waiting for new drugs that relieve menopausal symptoms, but do not promote cancer or other serious side-effects. A major problem that exists to discover safer drugs for menopausal symptoms is the lack of appropriate biological systems to screen estrogens for activity. For example, the cells used to test drugs are not involved in the generation of hot flashes and there is no good animal model to study hot flashes. The best system to study the effects of estrogens are neurons, which are involved in the generation of hot flashes. However, it has not been possible to obtain human neurons in sufficient amounts to test new drugs. The use of embryonic stem cells now makes it possible to generate enough human neurons to study. In this proposal, we will use human embryonic stem (hES) cells as a source for neurons that can be used as a model to identify estrogenic genes that could serve as markers to discover drugs for hot flash prevention.
Statement of Benefit to California:
There are approximately 5 million postmenopausal women in California. Approximately, 80% of these women will experience hot flashes. During menopause the levels of the female hormone, estrogen, drop dramatically. This drop causes hot flashes to occur, which are most common during perimenopause, and usually last for one to five years after menopause. In some women hot flashes can extend extend through the 70s and beyond. A hot flash is a sudden feeling of warmth that is often associated with sweating, palpitations from an elevated heart rate, chills, and a sensation of anxiety. Although variable, hot flashes generally last for seconds or a few minutes and occur every 2-4 hours. Hot flashes are extremely debilitating to many women, because they often awaken many times during with night sweats. The daily and nightly hot flashes often cause women to be extremely tired and irritable and makes it more difficult to concentrate on daily tasks. In some cases job performance suffers. A desire to prevent hot flashes is the main reason women begin hormone therapy. Unfortunately, clinical trials have found that estrogens in hormone therapy can cause breast cancer, strokes and blood clots. The huge, potential beneficial impact of new drugs for treating hot flashes and menopausal symptoms is exemplified by the fact that hormone therapy was the most prescribed drug prior to recent clinical trials. The results of the clinical trials have created a huge need for millions of postmenopausal women in California who are anxiously waiting for safer estrogens for hot flashes and other menopausal symptoms. The goal of this proposal is use neurons that are derived from embryonic stems cells to discover safer estrogens to treat postmenopausal women who seek treatment for hot flashes.
Review Summary:
SYNOPSIS: The PI proposes to use hESC-derived neurons to investigate safer drugs to treat menopause. SIGNIFICANCE AND INNOVATION: One reviewer thought the application neither innovative nor original. Another thought it a highly original project to use hESCs as models for drug development. The goal is to use hESC-derived (HSF-6 and H9) neurons to study possible treatments for hot flashes in menopausal women. Two aims are listed: Aim 1 is to optimize laboratory conditions to derive neurons from human ESCs; Aim 2 will identify estrogen receptor-regulated gene markers in hESC-derived neurons. These types of studies are new. STRENGTHS: The PI is an expert in estrogen receptor biology and is dedicated to understanding menopausal symptoms. The experiments are well-designed, well-described and will provide valuable information about the use of hESC-derived neuronal stem cells to measure responses to estrogens and anti-estrogenic compounds. The use of hESCs to evaluate drugs is important. The applicant provides some preliminary data indicating that they have successfully done RT-PCR on the cells and have differentiated ESCs to neurons. They are using a well-established microarray technology (Affymetrix) and should be able to obtain the data. WEAKNESSES: While there is no question that hESC lines have attracted a great deal of attention as a source of human cells for drug testing, it is not clear that this proposal will add new ideas or techniques that are not already being used in the field. The use of human neurons derived from hESCs is not an original idea and is already being used to screen drugs in industry. It is not clear that the investigator is proposing anything that is not already being done and that the investigator is best suited for developing a model system for doing this. The investigators may underestimate the differences between culturing mouse ESCs and hESCs. It is also not clear that the proposed experiments will yield new drugs or reduce the necessity for animal or human testing of the drugs. Although menopausal symptoms affect millions of women, it is not a life-threatening disease for which there is currently no cure. DISCUSSION: There was no further discussion following reviewers' comments

The annual event was started by the Winston County Chitlin' Eaters Association in 1959 and has become the biggest fundraiser of the year for the MHS Band of Champions. The annual event usually generates between $2,000 to $3,000 for the band in a non-political year, and more than $6,000 during a political year.
Organizers of the event generally prepare an estimated 350 pounds of chitterlings to serve at the supper. But they grill chicken to offer to those who may be a little to squeamish to give the chitterlings a little try.
This year's plates will be $7 per person and consist of fried chitterlings or grilled chicken, slaw or potato salad, crackling cornbread, candied corn, dessert and a drink.
