Ti Mamoun by J-Vens
Posted Mar 31, 2014
HaitiXchange Digital Media presents artist J-Vens, and his hit "Ti Mamoun" which has taken Haiti by storm. A bona-fide street hit, a 'Ti-Mamoun' is the embodiment of a young modern gold-digger, who uses "love" for only what she can gain. With a very catchy hook, lately you can barely go to a street party in Haiti without hearing this song. A DJ favorite, J-Vens has taken advantage of the video to also introduce the Ti-Mamoun dance, which has gained popularity alongside the song. Enjoy!

Enka - Kanaval 2014 - Dessalines
HaitiXchange has gotten into the Kanaval spirit with the release of Enka's 2014 kanaval song titled "Dessalines" in honor of one of Haiti's founding fathers. This fun little video was filmed at Fort Jacques, a historic landmark up in the mountains surrounding Port-au-Prince. The group comes from La Pleine and the name "Enka" is the Haitian spelling for the Inca indians after whom Dessalines named his army. Enjoy, and Happy Kanaval 2014!

Little League looking to pay Dukes' fine
Nats outfielder was late to clubhouse after greeting children
A Washington-area Little League said it will pay the $500 fine that outfielder Elijah Dukes was assessed for arriving late to the Nationals' clubhouse on April 11.
The Great Falls Little League is in the process of raising the money, plus $1 in "administrative expenses" to pay Dukes' fine, according to a report in The Washington Post.
It was the league's Opening Day event, for which Dukes was paid $500 to attend, that caused him to arrive late, prompting the fine from Nationals manager Manny Acta, along with a warning that another tardy arrival would earn him a ticket to the Minors.
Dukes had spent the morning cheering on the 54 teams in their parade and giving a speech to the kids, encouraging them to work hard and have fun. Because the event ran a little longer than expected and had not been scheduled as a community event by the team itself, it was not considered an "excused absence" and thus the fine was levied.
When the league's parents heard about Dukes' fine and benching the next day, they mobilized to raise money to pay his fine.
"The point is, this guy gave back to our community, and now he's in a hard spot. We need to help him," league president Jim Mraz told the Post. "It's not a question of whether this guy can afford the 500 bucks. We're just trying to send a message to our kids: He was here for us. Now we've got to be there for him."

- Where Does It Hurt?
Ways to Reduce Inflammation
Controlling inflammation is essential to managing arthritis symptoms. What can you do to reduce inflammation?
Anti-Inflammatory Diet May Help Arthritis
An anti-inflammatory diet focuses on eating more foods that do not increase inflammation and avoiding those that do.
What Is Inflammation?
Inflammation defends the body against foreign substances or injury normally or can be associated with certain diseases.
Inflammation Explained
Inflammation is caused by an immune response to injury or infection.
What Is Inflammatory Arthritis?
Rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis are three types of inflammatory arthritis.
What Is CRP (C-Reactive Protein)?
A high result for the CRP test serves as a general indication of acute inflammation.
Inflammation - Test Your Knowledge
Inflammation is a process associated with many diseases, including arthritis. Do you know what is happening as inflammation occurs? Do you know why inflammation occurs?
Inflammation Raises Rheumatoid Arthritis Cardiac Death Risks
Researchers are studying the connection between rheumatoid inflammation and cardiovascular risk.
What Are Cytokines?
Cytokines are proteins that serve as messengers between cells. Cytokines regulate various inflammatory responses, including some that are involved in rheumatoid arthritis.
Facts About NSAIDs
NSAIDs are popular medications used to treat arthritis.
Anemia and Arthritis
Anemia is not uncommon in people with inflammatory arthritis. Inflammation can disrupt normal iron metabolism.
Facts About Corticosteroids (Steroids)
Corticosteroids, such as prednisone, are powerful drugs which can improve arthritis dramatically. There may be side effects that are potentially serious.
Normal Joint Versus Arthritic Joint
A normal joint moves freely. A joint damaged by inflammation can have severely limited range of motion.
What Is C-Reactive Protein?
CRP is a plasma protein which increases during inflammation.

The prize committee in Oslo, Norway, awarded it to the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, the international chemical weapons watchdog helping to eliminate the Syrian army's stockpiles of poison gas.
Perhaps fresh on the minds of Nobel Peace Prize committee members, the efforts to rid Syria of chemical weapons is in its infancy. I believe this award comes a year too soon; let's see first if their mission in Syria is fruitful.
The Nobel Peace Prize is one of the five Nobel Prizes created by Swedish industrialist, inventor and armaments manufacturer Alfred Nobel, along with the prizes in Chemistry, Physics, Physiology or Medicine and Literature. This year, the prize was worth 10 million Swedish kronor, or about $1.5 million in U.S. currency.
Meanwhile, 16-year-old Malala Yousafzai took a bullet in the head after a Taliban gunman jumped into the pickup truck taking her home from school Oct. 6, 2012.
In early 2009 when she was only 11, Yousafzai blogged anonymously for the BBC about life under the Taliban.
The Malala Fund was formed following the assassination attempt. The fund campaigns for girls' education around the world.
After regaining her eyesight and voice, Malala has stood steadfast in her beliefs despite facing an open contract on her life by the Taliban. She and her family now live in Birmingham, England.
In fact, just last week she won the $65,000 Sakharov Award, Europe's top human rights awards. Many thought it was a prelude to the Nobel Peace Prize.
But some say she is too young for the prestigious award. And history supports that notion.
Lawrence Bragg is the youngest to receive a Nobel Prize. At the age of 25, in 1915, Bragg was jointly awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics with his father, William Henry Bragg, for their services in the analysis of crystal structure by means of X-rays.
Only four U.S. presidents have been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize: Theodore Roosevelt in 1905, Thomas Woodrow Wilson in 1919, Jimmy Carter in 2002 and Barack Obama in 2009.
This year's Nobel Peace Prize announcement is not the first to receive criticism. Although nominated in 1937, 1938, 1939, 1947 and finally, a few days before his death in January 1948, Mahatma Gandhi never was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
Not bad company for young Malala Yousafzai.

The Bills activated TE Shawn Nelson to their 53-man roster on Monday and waived OLB Chris Ellis.
Nelson underwent groin surgery in early September and was limited in practice last week. Nelson was also suspended for the first four games of the season for violating the league's substance-abuse policy.
In 12 starts in his rookie season, Nelson had 17 catches for 156 yards with one touchdown. The Bills are 0-5 to start the season for the first time since 1985.
Ellis was attempting to transition from defensive end to an OLB spot in the Bills' new 3-4 defense. He started the season opener but did not record any defensive statistics in any of the last four games.
The way we see it
Nelson should bolster a Bills offense that is 30th in the league. He had a productive rookie season and should become a weapon over the middle for QB Ryan Fitzpatrick. The Bills have a bye in Week Six so he will get another week of practice before returning to action.

Tag: Nuclear plants
No worries at St. Lucie nuclear plants. Really?
- 12:45 pm Friday, April 15th, 2011 by Post Staff
The cozy "Energy Encounter" conference room at the St. Lucie Nuclear Power Plant is reassuring. A life-sized cardboard cutout of Albert Einstein, sketched in slacks and a bright green argyle sweater, and a cartoon parrot in a pirate suit lean against the front wall, behind the six officials.
The 40 people gathered to hear the NRC's safety report on St. Lucie's two nuclear reactors include Hutchinson Island, Martin and St. Lucie residents, a contingent of young people in t-shirts, dreadlocks and backwards baseball caps from Palm Beach County Environmental Coalition, and 80-year-old Stan Smilan, retired airline pilot and longtime nuclear industry critic from Lake Worth.
The three Florida Power & Light Co. employees and three federal Nuclear Regulatory Commission spokesmen speak as one. Their message is upbeat: Nuclear power is safe. The St. Lucie plant reactors, spent fuel pools and power systems are safe. What happened in Japan won't, can't, and never will happen here.
Sure, the St. Lucie plant has had problems, but the problems have been fixed. Yes, an earthquake did happen in Haiti, but it's extremely unlikely here. True, the plant did lose all off-site power during Hurricane Jeanne, but "ran on diesel generators just fine."
And yes, there have been problems with FPL employees being afraid to report problems to the NRC, but now they can provide anonymous tips on telephone hotlines.
The NRC is studying what went wrong in Japan and will apply anything it learns to nuclear plants in the U.S.
All the FPL and NRC folks are excruciatingly polite, even when questions are rude or heated.

FWC warns boaters about drinking, manatees during Labor Day weekendWednesday, September 1st, 2010
The Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission is warning boaters to avoid drinking and drugs while driving a boat during the traditionally busy Labor Day weekend.
Boat drivers can feel woosy just from the heat, motion and sun glare. Add drugs or booze and it can be dangerous.
"Driving under these conditions puts everyone on the boat and in its path in potential danger," said the FWC's Maj. Paul Ouellette.
Expect extra law-enforcement officers on the water this weekend, checking for drunken boating and other violations.

Life is complicated enough as is. Superior skincare should be easy, and when talking about Jack Black, it's gender neutral, too (what could be easier than that?). Each product is dermatologist-tested and fragrance-free, which means you can share your care with your significant other.
His and Her counter space in the bathroom? This is one skincare line that can cross boundaries. You already share such an intimate part of your lives together, and it doesn't get much sexier than borrowing your man's products, especially when they look great on you (just like his button-downs). Jack Black is bringing sexy back to the females, so go ahead and show your man what you're made of.

Treat your GOGmix as your child - name it! ;)
Coming up with a cool and descriptive title should be your first priority. Being original is in your best interest - bet you wanna get lots of nice votes, right? Go all crazy if you want, but be sure to keep it civil!
So, what are the ingredients?
Pick a game that belongs in your GOGmix from the list, or find it by typing something in the text field. Relevance is key here - Earthworm Jim doesn't quite fit the "Sexiest heroines of all time" bill now, does it?
Justify your choice... Or not!
OK, so it's not required, but now that you went through the trouble of adding a game, telling everyone why you did it would be a nice finishing touch. After you're done here, add another game, rinse, repeat.

But here it might be a little out of place, as Planes: Fire and Rescue has a few things on its mind besides supporting the men and women who routinely throw themselves into burning buildings.
Like money. Lots and lots of money – into the 11-figures-and-counting range. In case you weren't aware, 2006's Cars was the biggest moneymaker Disney had in decades – not because of how much green the film printed at the box office, but because a combination of toys, games and snack foods stamped with the Cars seal of approval routinely pulls in tens of billions of dollars per year. > Read more.

Minimum alcohol price "regressive", says Boris
London Mayor Boris Johnson has once again found himself at odds with David Cameron - this time over alcohol pricing. The mayor claims that the poorest would be hit hardest by Government proposals to set a base price of 50 pence per unit of alcohol.
He has said that alcohol ban zones on some of London's high streets had worked very well, and that a move towards a minimum price per unit would be 'regressive' and would not tackle the problem of excessive drinking.
The Prime Minister though insists that his proposals "wouldn't really affect family budgets, but would deal with this problem of very aggressive deep discounting and some binge drinking".

Salvation Army volunteers and chefs served Christmas lunch to about 9,200 people on Tuesday.
Doors opened at 9:30 a.m. at Phoenix Convention Center and the Christmas Day community meal was served at 11:30 a.m.
Organizers say they expected around 6,000 people to eat at the center and to deliver around 3,200 meals to the homebound.
Volunteers cooked, decorated and packed to prepare for the annual event.
Not only did everyone get free lunch, every kid and adults received either a toy or goodie bag from the "Room of Joy."
Volunteers brought home delivered meals to those who were unable to travel to the convention center.
Over 1,200 volunteers helped make the holiday a success.

Not too long ago, I wrote about the Diamondbacks and their surplus of outfielders. They had five viable outfielders, including three who could play a decent-to-good center. They had a sell-somewhat-low candidate to peddle in Justin Upton, and they had a sell-high candidate in Jason Kubel.
When a team has an embarrassment of riches like that, I always figure their plan is to be patient. The Diamondbacks could set up a little stand on the side of the road, offering their wares for a ridiculous price. And when Nick Swisher signed somewhere, they'd raise their prices. When Shane Victorino signed, the prices would go up a little more. When Josh Hamilton, B.J. Upton, and Angel Pagan signed … you get the idea.
When the dust settled, the Diamondbacks would have the best selection on the market. Power, speed, defense … other teams could mix and match, paying a steep price for the player they player they felt they could afford.
That was the idea.
Instead, the Diamondbacks turned Chris Young into an all-glove shortstop. They also got a no-hit shortstop prospect who Baseball America thinks might need to move to third base. And, uh, they got Heath Bell.
I keep staring at that return like it's a piece of modern art, as if I'm just too obtuse to get it. Maybe the Diamondbacks see a hitter in Cliff Pennington who was beat down by his home park, and who suffered through a fluky-bad season in 2012. If he can hit like a league-average shortstop, as he did in 2010 and 2011, Pennington is quite valuable. Maybe Arizona's scouting department sees oodles of untapped potential in Yordy Cabrera, who is still just 22. Edit: Cabrera went to the Marlins for Heath Bell. Sloppy mistake, my bad. I don't understand the idea behind paying $13 million for Heath Bell right now.
As a straight swap, I can almost see Pennington for Young. Anyone who remembers the expectations for Young when he was getting established in the majors is probably apt to overrate him. He was supposed to be a five-tool wunderkind, and when it became obvious he wasn't going to hit for average, the other four tools were so strong, he still had a chance to be a perennial All-Star. He's now 29, and six seasons, his low OPS is .711, and his high is .793. His average is .755. That's pretty danged predictable. It's probably time to accept Chris Young, useful cog, and forego any expectations of Chris Young, future star.
He's going to make $8.5 million, too, so it's not like he's an under-the-radar bargain.
So I don't have a problem with a Pennington-for-Young swap in theory. Pennington isn't a free agent until after the 2015 season, so if the Diamondbacks are right and they get an Aaron Hill-like renaissance in a hitters' park, they'll have a long-term solution at a tough-to-find position. I might even be tempted to call the Diamondbacks the winner of that swap based on risk/reward, even before Bell is added to the return.
The big question with this deal has to do with the timing. Why now, before the World Series is over? Why before teams can negotiate with the free-agent outfielders, get their hopes up, and miss out on the free agents they were counting on? There are a few outfielders on the market, but just one of them has anything close to the defensive value of Young -- B.J. Upton, who is probably going to be a rich man by next season. The loser of the Upton sweepstakes might have turned their eye to Young.
Instead, it was Pennington or bust. The timing of the deal suggests that was the Diamondbacks' guy from the start. They targeted him and got him as soon as possible. They didn't want the bazaar of the offseason.
Good for them. But, man, I'd love to know what offers would have been there in December. The Diamondbacks don't really have a lot of holes -- their outfield is full, the rotation is overstocked when healthy, and they're set at first, second, and catcher. A shortstop or an upgrade on Chris Johnson at third would have been the easiest targets. They got their shortstop. This might be the offseason for the Arizona Diamondbacks, more or less.
I can't tell if this deal lacks imagination, or if it's so imaginative that it's over my head. It sure is an early move, though. It's early and decisive. That's worth a few bonus points, I suppose.

Kootenai County spans 1,316 square miles, from its flat prairie border with Washington state across the north shore of Lake Coeur d'Alene to the dense pine forests on Fourth of July Pass. In the late 1800s, prospectors discovered gold, silver, lead and zinc in the mountains just east of the pass, and for much of the next century, mining undergirded the regional economy. In the 1970s, the "Silver Valley," on a fork of the Coeur d'Alene River, produced half the nation's silver and ranked among the 10 most productive mining districts in the world. The mines, and the unions that arose with them, made the region faithfully Democratic. Republicans rarely won local partisan elections, and unionized workers backed Idaho Sen. Frank Church, who sponsored the 1964 Wilderness Act and opposed the Vietnam War.
But North Idaho also contained deep conservative pockets. In 1964, the presidential election revealed strong support for Republican Barry Goldwater, and the area caught the attention of Ronald Rankin, a leader of Southern California's burgeoning conservative movement. In 1965, Rankin moved to Coeur d'Alene, the largest town in Kootenai County, from Orange County, south of Los Angeles, where he'd directed the California Republican Assembly and rallied Goldwater supporters. (At one event, Rankin reportedly told a young Ronald Reagan -- then making his first run for California governor -- that he was "too liberal.") According to the region's leading newspaper, the Spokesman-Review in Spokane, Wash., Rankin and his family moved to Idaho "looking for a quieter life." The following year, however, he revealed another reason in the Lewiston Morning Tribune, saying that "several very wealthy Southern Californians" had planted eight field organizers, including Rankin, across the West to "reshape the Republican Party from the bottom up along arch-conservative lines."
Kootenai County was a strategic target. Rankin told the Tribune he liked the "community atmosphere"; the small electorate was easier to influence, and almost entirely white. (The Aryan Nations, a white supremacist group, had its headquarters in the county until 2001.) It was a place, Rankin believed, where one person could make a difference -- where, by reorienting the local politics, he could help change the nation. "If we can carry the bottom of the ticket," he said, "then we have a chance of carrying the top."
Rankin's failures and successes read like a litmus test for the county's political transformation. His first move -- an attempt to recall Sen. Church -- was seen as radical, even among Republicans, and over the years, as the Spokesman-Review noted, he ran "for every public office from governor to a seat on a local highway district ... most always unsuccessfully." Eventually, though, Rankin's popularity grew. He hosted a radio talk show and had some success spreading his anti-tax philosophy. In 1996, he finally won a seat on the Kootenai County Commission and persuaded fellow commissioners to make English the county's official language. By the time Rankin died in 2004, local politics had shifted so drastically to the right that some conservatives considered him too liberal. (Rankin reportedly dubbed them "the far-righteous.")
The economy had slid out from underneath Democrats. The price of silver dropped precipitously in 1980, the metals market slumped, mines closed, and Idaho passed right-to-work legislation that effectively disabled the unions. Kootenai County's new economy was based on tourism, medical care and the high-tech industry. At the front of this transition was Coeur d'Alene native Duane Hagadone, an ambitious conservative who owned the Coeur d'Alene Press and other Northwestern newspapers. Hagadone believed that the region's economic future depended on its natural beauty, epitomized in the 25-mile-long Lake Coeur d'Alene. He was already on his way to becoming one of Idaho's wealthiest men when he built an 18-story hotel and resort on the lakeshore, featuring a golf course with a floating green and a new marina that offered cable television and room service to visiting yachtsmen. At a Chamber of Commerce meeting in 1985, after county commissioners approved the project, Hagadone gushed, "The potential of what we have in this great community in this great area is almost scary."
Meanwhile, Southern California was struck by a series of disasters in the early 1990s -- a recession, an earthquake, race riots -- that together marked the beginning of an exodus. Between 1992 and 2000, excluding birth and death rates, California lost 1.8 million more people than it gained; collectively, Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, and Arizona gained 1.4 million more than they lost. More than half of the immigrants to Idaho in that period came from California. Of the top four counties that lost emigrants to Kootenai, three were in California -- San Diego, Los Angeles and Orange.
Like many other mass movements, this one spread by word of mouth. In 1990, the Coeur d'Alene Press reported that one Orange County family had convinced "half its neighborhood" to relocate to Coeur d'Alene. A pastor told me that "whole (evangelical) ministries" came north together. By the end of the 1990s, more than 500 California police officers had retired to North Idaho, among them Mark Fuhrman, who committed perjury in the prosecution of O.J. Simpson. One officer told the Los Angeles Times that he left Anaheim because "the narrow roads got wider, orange groves became tract homes and street gangs became too numerous to count." He went looking for "another Shangri-La," and found it in Kootenai County.

Gering season ends with first round loss to Gretna
Two first half goals stood up for the Gretna Dragons Friday morning and the defending state champions moved on to the semifinals of the Class B Girls State Soccer Tournament at Creighton University in Omaha with a 2-0 win over Gering.
"We played really well," said Gering coach Lisa Freeburg. "We hung with a team that beat No. 1 Omaha Skutt. We had some chances in the second half. I'm proud of the way the girls played."
Gretna moves to 13-4 on the year and will have a match-up in the semifinals with Elkhorn South who topped Lincoln Lutheran/Raymond Central 4-0.
Gering ends its season at 13-5. The Bulldogs were making their second straight appearance at state and fourth overall. The 2-0 loss was the closest game Gering has ever played at state.
"There are a lot of special girls on this team," Freeburg said. "They have worked hard to accomplish a great season. I am proud of them."

The biggest road construction year in state history has started.
Among the road construction projects in Western North Dakota, four truck bypasses are under construction.
Jennifer Kleen has the update on the heavily populated roads out west.
Construction season has begun.
The North Dakota Department of Transportation is investing $800 million dollars into roadways this summer.
(Katie Pizza, NDDOT Media Relations) "Making it one of the DOT's biggest years."
Highway 85 from Watford City to Williston is the biggest project.
When complete, the well traveled portion of Theodore Roosevelt Expressway will have four lanes of traffic with paved medians in some areas.
Phase one from Watford City to County Road 16 is now under construction - it's down to two lanes of traffic with reduced speeds.
Phase two from County Road 16 to Williston will include the replacement of the Lewis & Clark bridge over the next couple of years.
The DOT is waiting for environmental clearance.
The Williston end of the Highway 85 project meets up with the next construction zone.
Phase one of the Williston Truck Reliever Route will have reduced traffic speeds through July with one lane in each direction at the four mile corner southwest of Williston
(Katie Pizza, NDDOT Media Relations) "You can see that that will be utilizing the temporary truck reliever route to connect back into 2 & 85 so this is the spot that it's impacting drivers most right now."
Work on phase two has begun and phase three will go to bid later this month.
Two lanes will be done this fall and the four lane 13-mile project will be complete in 2015.
The Williston bypass is estimated to cost more than $162 million.
The Williston bypass is a part of the $409 million being invested in truck bypass routes in western North Dakota.
Bypass projects in Watford City, New Town, and Alexander have broken ground, expected to be complete this fall.
The Watford City Southeast project will connect with the Southwest bypass - both four lanes - for a total of $130.8 million.
DOT Director Grant Levi says nearly 3,900 trucks travel through Watford City each day --- and another 3,500 trucks pass through New Town.
The New Town bypass is a two lane, 3.2 mile project around the northeast of New Town for $25 million - complete in November.
Construction on 1804 through New Town has also started and main street construction will begin next year.
The Alexander truck bypass will re-route US Highway 85 to the west of Alexander --- four lanes of traffic for 3.7 miles at $28 million.
In Williston city limits, the 18th Street underpass project has started - which will allow Highway 2 traffic to pass OVER 18th Street.
A temporary traffic signal has been placed at Highway 2 and Box elder --- the temporary detour for the project will be complete this year.
In total, the 2013 and 2014 construction seasons represent the largest road construction programs in state history, with more than $1.6 billion in bids for roadway projects this biennium --- constructing a more accessible future in North Dakota.

New Orleans drafted Jenkins to play corner and would like to see the 2009 first-round pick continue to focus on that position, even though he was billed by some as a corner-safety hybrid coming out of Ohio State and has the tools necessary to play either position.
Jenkins, who started six games at cornerback last season, is expected to compete with Randall Gay to be the Saints' nickel back in 2010, and some insiders say there's still a good chance Sharper, who is seeking offers from other clubs, will re-sign with the Saints later this offseason. New Orleans could spend an early draft pick on a free safety or, if Sharper were to move on, another veteran free agent could be brought in to compete for the role.

Often managers and entrepreneurs associate cloud VPN with individual use. It is believed that enterprises use their own VPNs, administered by their internal IT personnel. They believe it is more secure.
It's not. Moreover, cloud VPN offers a better value.
We define cloud VPNs as securely connecting from any location to resources (data and applications) that are provisioned in central data sites for the purpose of highly-available and reliable access. A cloud VPN must also offer specific characteristics which address the requirements for secure remote access from any device, over any type of network and from any location.
Ivacy provides for absolutely secure and anonymous VPN connection for any mobile device, such as iPhones, iPads, Android tablets and smartphones.
Companies that want their mobile employees to securely access the company network via the Internet have several options available to them: remote access out of the cloud, virtual private network as a service (VPNaaS) and managed security service provider (MSSP). Due to economic reasons, companies and individuals choose to outsource the operation of their VPNs to cloud, hosting or managed service providers.
The benefits for enterprises include the following:
no investment in hardware, software and in-house experts
a fast realization of a remote access VPN project
low monthly expenses
If the cloud VPN is software-based, it's able to be virtualized and offers high scalability. Ideally, the cloud VPN solution would support multi-tenancy, be available for all major operating systems and device platforms and have a central management component

Sarah Murnaghan will have a tube inserted through her neck into the windpipe to allow direct access to the lungs.
This tube will replace the breathing tube that currently goes down her nose and throat.
According to Sarah's mother Janet, the tracheostomy tube will be a better long term option because it is more comfortable, will allow Sarah to speak, eat, and drink while having ventilator support, and will allow Sarah to get out of bed easier and do more physical rehab.
Janet also writes, "I am disappointed that she needs a trach, for me it is another hardship Sarah must endure, and I wish things would just sail smoothly along. That being said, I know it is the right decision at this point, I have no doubt in my mind. We've prayed about it a lot and debated the pros and cons. So while I am at peace with the decision I am simultaneously heartbroken."

Rail franchise fiasco: 3 suspended
1:01pm Wednesday 3rd October 2012 in National News © Press Association 2014
Transport Secretary Patrick McLoughlin said 'deeply regrettable and completely unacceptable mistakes' had been made
Whitehall blunders over the now-scrapped West Coast Main Line rail franchise has led to the suspension of three Department for Transport (DfT) officials.
They were suspended by Permanent Secretary Philip Rutnam after Transport Secretary Patrick McLoughlin laid the blame for the fiasco "wholly and squarely" on the DfT.
A DfT spokesman said: "Three officials involved in the West Coast franchise competition were today suspended by the Permanent Secretary while the full facts are established. No further details will be issued at this time about the suspensions."
There will be a £40 million cost to taxpayers of the scrapping of the process which would have meant Sir Richard Branson's company, Virgin Rail, losing its West Coast contract to rival transport company FirstGroup.
Mr McLoughlin pulled the plug on the whole process early on Wednesday, saying "unacceptable mistakes" were made by the DfT in the way it managed the franchise bids from FirstGroup, Virgin and two other companies.
Describing the bidding process as "flawed" and "insane", Sir Richard had launched a legal challenge to the FirstGroup decision. Having intended to contest the challenge, Mr McLoughlin is now dropping his opposition, cancelling the West Coast franchise competition and ordering two independent inquiries into what went wrong with the West Coast process.
Mr McLoughlin said he was "very angry" about what had happened: He went on: "The original model didn't take into account inflation and also some elements of the passenger number increases over a number of years. I want to make it absolutely clear that neither FirstGroup nor Virgin did anything wrong. The fault of this lies wholly and squarely with the DfT. Both of those two companies acted properly on the advice that they were getting from the Department."
Mr McLoughlin has put on "pause" the bidding process for three other rail franchises. FirstGroup said it was "extremely disappointed" at the news, adding that it had submitted "a strong bid, in good faith and in strict accordance with the DfT's terms".
Sir Richard said the decision showed that the whole bidding process was fundamentally flawed.
"Hopefully, as a result of this fiasco, a new system can be put in place that will be good for the passengers, good for the taxpayer and good for the operators," he added.

Variety reports that Ephron is attached to write and direct 'Lost in Austen,' an adaptation of the BBC miniseries of the same name. 'Bond 23' director Sam Mendes will produce, while Sony will handle release duties. No word on casting yet, but perhaps Kate Hudson, Anne Hathaway and/or Amy Adams will want to brush-up their resumes (Mindy Kaling should too, just in case Ephron wants to get adventurous with her casting).

Remember the story on Friday about 'Dredd' director Pete Travis being fired off the production? Big misunderstanding! "During all stages of the filmmaking, 'Dredd' has been a collaboration between a number of dedicated creative parties. From the outset we decided on an unorthodox collaboration to make the film. This situation has been misinterpreted," Travis and writer Alex Garland said in a statement. "To set the record straight, Pete was not fired and remains a central part of the collaboration, and Alex is not seeking a co-director credit. We are all extremely proud of the film we have made, and respectfully suggest that it is judged on viewing when its released next year." [LAT/24 Frames]

The Philadelphia Orchestra will embark upon a European Tour in 2015, ending in two performances at the South Bank Centre in London.
Mayor Michael Nutter made the announcement at a reception during a trade mission to the United Kingdom and Israel to promote the city and attract international investment to Philadelphia.
The orchestra will be in London on June 5 and 6, 2015, for two performances with its new music Director, Yannick Nézet-Séguin, former Principal Guest Conductor of the London Philharmonic.
Yannick is only the 8th music director in the Philadelphia Orchestra's 114 year history.
In 1949, the orchestra performed 28 concerts in 27 days, marking the first time an American orchestra had crossed the Atlantic after World War II.
The orchestra also joined Mayor Nutter on a December 2012 visit to China, during which time the orchestra was able to finalize details and secure sponsorship for a concert in Tianjin in June 2013.

Senior Year
Senior year offers up a lot of opportunities for students to get involved on campus, whether it be research, internships/co-ops, lab-work, or theatre productions. Students with a 3.0 GPA or higher can even take advantage of some graduate courses. Utilizing these opportunities and the resources available in the Career Development Office can help you get a jump on the job/graduate school search.
Where to Start
- Complete Your Senior Check (details below)
- Review Our Advice for Seniors
- Explore Career Planning for A&S Majors
- Get involved and take advantage of all Niagara has to offer
- Learn more about Graduation & Commencement
Senior Checks (Required) Prepare You for Graduation
Seniors are required to complete a senior check at least two (2) semesters before graduation after they have earned about 80 credits (approximately the end of junior/early senior year). The timing of senior checks is based on your expected graduation date.
- May or August Graduation: Prior Summer, or beginning of fall semester (August, September, or October)
- January Graduation: Beginning of prior spring semester.
See the sidebar for more details on how to sign up or speed up your senior check.
Senior checks allow you to be proactive in pursuing your degree. At your senior check you will:
- Step 1: Fill out the Senior Check / Diploma Information Form to submit your diploma order and contact information for graduation mailings.
- Step 2: Fill out the Survey of Graduating Seniors which helps us to evaluate and improve the college.
- Step 3: Complete a Senior Check Contract where you will review your completed coursework against your official degree requirements and identify remaining requirements, possible minors, etc...
- Senior checks can be updated to review your progress, answer any concerns, or revise your information.
Failure to complete a check early or follow your senior check recommendations can jeopardize graduation.
- The later you complete a senior check in your senior year, the less opportunities are available to identify and solve issues that might arise.
- Senior checks are required before diplomas are ordered or permission is given to participate in commencement.

Tampa Bay Rays reliever Joel Peralta was ejected from Tuesday night's game against the Washington Nationals without throwing a pitch for having pine tar in his glove.
A "significant amount" of the substance was found after Washington manager Davey Johnson specifically requested that home plate umpire Tim Tschida check Peralta's glove, The Washington Post reported.
Rays manager Joe Maddon blasted Johnson's challenge as "cowardly," saying the Nationals broke an unwritten rule of baseball.
"From a real veteran staff on the other side, knowing how this thing works and how it's worked for many, many years, you can go back to spitball pitchers to greaseball pitchers to whatever kind of pitchers to scuffball pitchers, this is just how the game has been played for 100 years, more than that," Maddon said. "So to single out Joel Peralta tonight [Tuesday], that's my concern."
Johnson said he had made similar challenges before and explained that when the weather is hot and a player is known for using foreign substances, that is the time to check.
He said his own players had told him before the game that Peralta -- a former Nationals player -- liked to use pine tar.
"It was a rumor that he liked a little pine tar," Johnson said. "I was hesitant to do it. [Tschida] was looking at me kind of grinning. He said, 'What do you want?' I walked out and said, 'Why don't you check it, just to make sure. I'm curious.'"
Peralta said he was not doing it to gain a competitive advantage and was not sure whether he would be suspended.
"I don't know if they're going to do anything about it," he said. "I hope not. It's not like I'm using pine tar my whole career."
The Rays still went on to win the game, 5-4.

After implementing the trees and a few new types of vegetation, I've noticed that the frame rate is starting to suffer. This is mainly because it's trying to draw so many polygons (need to implement some kind of terrain LOD system), but also because my layout at the very core of my rendering code isn't very tidy. When I started the project, the rendering engine was very specifically geared towards rendering terrain. Then when it came to adding water, entities and vegetation rendering I very lazily hacked in a render list to handle them.
Now I'm at the point where I really need to spend some time thinking about how to make nice clean rendering code, and implementing it. I'll probably release another alpha version once I get these changes in place, but there won't be many big visible things different from the current version when that release comes around.
So I just wanted to keep everybody informed on what I'm up to. I'll post some screenshots on my Indie/ModDB and Facebook pages when I have anything good to show!

Johnstown — Anyone who has helped a senior citizen navigate the murky waters of corporate or government programs can tell you it's a confusing and frustrating process.
Yes, and also for the seniors.
I recently helped an individual traverse the maze of Medicare open enrollment, and found myself flip-flopping between agitation and outright infuriation.
In the months leading up to the Dec. 7 deadline for making prescription drug changes, the person received a boatload of solicitation mailings – all disguised as last-chance ultimatums.
You will lose your coverage if you don't join us, they insinuated.
Your current insurer is ripping you off, they alleged, but we will be your savior.
They offered: Here's an easy-to-use payment book. Just sign the attached form and send it back and you'll be all set.
Little in the way of actual information that could help someone decide what's best
– in terms of services and costs – for him or her.
Ironically, all the attention seemed to evaporate when we started contacting agencies and asking actual questions.
Several hours on the phone meant an agonizing journey through an electronic labyrinth of digital voice messages ("Habla Español?") and commands ("Please press 4 if you would like to be inadvertently disconnected so you can start all over again.").
At one point, we spoke with a long string of people in succession, all of whom:
n Put us on hold for an exasperating period of time made worse by incessant, mind-numbing chamber music playing louder than an Aerosmith concert;
n Asked us the same sequence of questions
– "What is your group number?"; "What is your policy number?"; "What is your date of birth?"; "Which is your favorite Beatle?" ...
n Decided that they were not – "And I am so sorry." – the person we actually needed to speak with, and ...
n Put us on hold again to transfer us to another individual, who also was unable to help us and who just didn't appreciate that our frustration level and use of colorful language had become elevated with each episode of dissatisfaction.
This happened when dealing with private companies and government offices alike.
Nobody was responsible for getting us answers.
One individual even insisted that several letters had been sent out explaining the changes and various options, although none had been received.
And we were informed that all of those form letters were available on a convenient, easy-to-use website – never mind that the person I was helping had neither a computer nor Internet access.
"Thank you. Have a nice day."
Ultimately, we got things sorted out and were somewhat comforted with the assurance that, yes, the person was all set for prescription drug coverage in 2012
– although at this writing that assurance had not been confirmed with actual hard-copy documentation.
What a travesty – companies making millions in premiums but unwilling to extend a hand to those paying their salaries.
I've seen similar scenarios play out with utility companies, pharmacies and other places frequented by seniors.
Customer-service representatives are too busy to provide anything resembling actual customer service.
A promise made on the phone is forgotten by the time the person arrives in person.
We've published too many stories about those who prey on seniors, who take advantage of them for personal gain
– committing unforgivable crimes that seldom lead to full justice for the victims.
But seniors often face unnecessary strife caused by individuals who are not engaged in illegal activities, but rather lack the professionalism or compassion to do things the right way.
It all adds up to emotional wear and tear for folks who have enough of that already.
Our seniors have dedicated their lives to living, working, raising families and contributing in many ways to our communities.
As a society, we should do better for them.
