When I think about exposure to contaminated air, I usually think about outdoor air pollution. And outdoor air pollution is indeed one of the causes of lung cancer.
But indoor air can be a problem as well. In fact, indoor air pollution appears to play a very important role in whether or not someone develops lung cancer - at least among non-smoking women in China.
Researchers looked at 399 Chinese women who had developed lung cancer, and compared them with 466 women who didn't have lung cancer. Over 40% (164) of the women with lung cancer had never smoked. They then compared the two groups with respect to both particulate matter in the indoor air they were breathing, and characteristics of their homes.
Sources of indoor air pollution (particulate matter) included:
- Environmental tobacco smoke at work
- High frequency of cooking
- Solid fuel usage for cooking
- Coal stove heating
Home characteristics associated with higher risk included:
- Poor ventilation
- Single story homes
- No separate kitchen area in the home
- Less window area
- Less frequent opening of windows
With all of the discussion about smoking and lung cancer, it seems we forget how important it is to look for causes of lung cancer other than smoking. This study was conducted in China, but in the United States 20% of women who develop lung cancer have never smoked.
If we are going to make a difference in the number of people diagnosed every year in the United States it's important that we look carefully at all possible causes of lung cancer. And, since it's winter and an ideal time to check your home for radon, if you haven't yet taken this easy step to avoid the second leading cause of lung cancer (and the leading cause in non-smokers), there's no time like today.

"He's just running over the world." -- Joe Theismann on Jaguars' rookie running back Rashad Jennings
In the world of football, only one thing is absolute, just win. Relating to Jaguar football, winning is more than just something to promote steady growth throughout the fan-base. It's necessary for the future of the franchise. Jacksonville is faced with some of the hardest economic times since the inception of the Jacksonville Jaguar franchise, and the franchise is scrambling to regain form. Ticket sales are sluggish at best, and the team is coming off one of the most disappointing seasons in terms of predicted success by the general public as a whole.
Through all of the economic turmoil, organizational restructuring, and team rebuilding, there are a few things I know. After finally managing to watch game four of the Jaguars preseason against the Washington Redskins, here are three things I know for sure:
1. Terrance Knighton is the best draft pick of 2009 not named Eugene Monroe. For those of you who were in doubt when this draft pick was announced, rest assured. Knighton is the future of the Jaguars' defensive line and will no doubt draw some attention this season as a playmaker. Reminding me of a raw version of Albert Haynesworth, Knighton has been solid in the preseason. Throughout each preseason game, it seems Knighton has put more pieces of the puzzle together regarding his overall game. It amazes me that a young rookie, who at one point everyone thought General Manager Gene Smith reached for in the draft, can develop this quickly into such a high caliber player.
Knighton consistently penetrated the offensive line. Not only did I see him pushing offensive linemen back on their heels but Knighton was making plays all over the field. Though John Henderson has stepped his game up this offseason, Knighton has clearly outplayed Henderson in every category. Reading the offensive adjustments, Knighton displayed some nice lateral movement to each side of the field and made some key plays in the flats. Everything about Knighton's development throughout the offseason and preseason assures me that Knighton is to be the Jacksonville Jaguars future Albert Haynesworth.
2. Sean Considine is solid. If you like to see spit coming from the mouth on a big hit, Considine will provide it for you. This consummate professional takes his job very seriously and thrives in situations where contact is necessary. He is the epitome of what the Jaguars have been looking for in a strong safety, and made the decision to let CB Brian Williams go that much easier. Considine has had lapses at times, but it is difficult for me to determine whether it has been a problem with schematic adjustments or poor reads. Regardless, Considine's strong play across the board has made it easy to overlook the negative. Considine, in my opinion, seems like the type of guy who must prove his worth and value to his fellow teammates and coaches before he steps into a leadership role. More than willing to be a leader of the defense, Considine will first ensure that his game is completely on point. He is the type of guy who walks more than he talks and when he finally speaks, people listen. This guy is going to be an all around stud for the defense this season.
3. Now I know what all of the talk was about Mike Sims-Walker in his only preseason action. Literally, on a reception near the sideline, he adjusted with lightning-fast reflexes to snatch a ball on his outside shoulder and my mouth dropped. He had good yards after the catch, sure hands (except for his one drop in the endzone before halftime), and a more than noticeable chip on his shoulder. Sims-Walker clearly had something to prove, and he didn't try to hide it.
As it becomes more evident the Jaguars are moving away from a power running game and closer to a more wide-open offense, it also becomes clear that Sims-Walker (upon staying healthy) will find himself on the field in regular three-wide sets. Assuming quarterback David Garrard is provided good protection, look for the Jaguars to have a dynamic passing attack in the second half of the year if not sooner. Offensive Coordinator Dirk Koetter knows it is crucial to have his playmakers all on the field at the same time. With receiver Torry Holt already an established star, receivers Troy Williamson and Sims-Walker could well be on their way to reaching that status if they can prove to be consistent with preseason performance and potential.
Other Observations
A. It is clear why running-back Rashad Jennings made the team over Chauncey Washington. As Jennings saw plenty of carries in the final preseason game, nothing really stood out to me as overall eye-popping. And then it happened. Late in the third quarter, after several penalties and the offense facing a 2nd and 30 situation, Rashad Jennings catches a little screen pass from quarterback Todd Bouman in the flats and a complete destruction of the Redskin defense ensued. Though it is believed that Jennings runs too upright, he definitely lowered his shoulder on this play. Not only did Jennings break about four tackles as he pummeled over everyone in sight, but he literally left two Redskins defensive players on the ground injured after the play. After watching the replay about eight times, my jaw dropped as Jennings ran over each player like they were cardboard cutouts. Their knees clearly locked up, and I thought they were seriously injured. After the play, the camera actually captured one of the injured players sitting on the bench with tissue in his bloody nose. The sheer raw potential and upside of Jennings is too great not to develop.
B. From what I counted, I only noticed one drop from Troy Williamson. Several passes were thrown his way that weren't catchable. His only drop came from a short, two yard pass from Bouman. At this point, I am fairly confident in Williamson's hands, and I look forward to the passing attack he is going to be involved in this season. If commentator Joe Theismann is to be trusted, Troy Williamson led all NFL receivers through the 3rd preseason game in receiving yards. I didn't do the research to find out if he held that status through the final preseason game, but it's not important. When is the last time that a Jaguar receiver eclipsed the top ten in the NFL in receiving yards?
Here at Last
The preseason is finally over; the regular season is here. The Jaguars open the season this Sunday against the hated rival Indianapolis Colts. Can Derek Cox make it through the game without giving up numerous big plays? Star quarterback Peyton Manning will no doubt target him early and often in the passing game. Will Cox survive? Can Reggie Nelson be a vocal leader of the defense? Can the defense not only get pressure on Manning but finally make it home and get some sacks on the quarterback? Of course, these are only a few questions to be answered. Win or lose, the 2009 season may be one of the most exciting in recent history. Though the media attention is focused on Jacksonville's ticket problem, the fans are focused on the team's growth as it rebuilds. With a seemingly solid draft in 2009, the Jaguars are well on their way.

From Islam to Christianity: Human Rights Leader Majed El Shafie Tells FOX News Radio His Personal Story of Persecution and Torture
Contact: Brian Mayes, 615-771-2040
NEW YORK, Feb. 27, 2014 /
Christian Newswire
/ -- Egyptian-born human rights leader and One Free World International founder Majed El Shafie will tell his personal story of persecution and torture to FOX News Radio's Vipp Jaswal on Sunday, March 2nd at 6:00pm EST. During the one hour interview, El Shafie will share his journey from Islam to Christianity and discuss the growing problem of religious persecution around the world.
El Shafie regularly testifies before the U.S. Congress and the Canadian Parliament and Senate, and he's a frequent guest on news outlets worldwide, including the Mike Huckabee Show, Phil Valentine, Laura Ingraham, CBN News, TheBlaze TV's Glenn Beck, CBC, Sun News Network's The Arena with Michael Coren and The Source with Ezra Levant, CTV News and many more. He now resides in Canada and fights for those persecuted around the world through his human rights organization, One Free World International. Pressuring governments, and challenging both world and spiritual leaders, he has not been afraid to put everything on the line to help those in need.
El Shafie has a unique voice, having once been arrested, tortured, and sentenced to die in Egypt for defending human rights and fighting for freedom of religion and the rights of minorities. El Shafie's dramatic story, and those of others worldwide who are suffering persecution, are told in shocking detail in his new book, FREEDOM FIGHTER: One Man's Fight for One Free World (Destiny Image). This is the true story of his continuing fight for a world free of religious persecution. The book is a companion to the award-winning human rights documentary, FREEDOM FIGHTER, now available on DVD from Destiny Image Films. View the official trailer here:

So, this little gem came about because one of the poster's thought it would be funny to compile the lists of my HH Laughs of the Day (the things you guys say that actually makes me laugh out loud). Depending on the response, I'll end up doing it again. But for now, I'm just gonna put them out there in no certain order.
Notes: All from month of Dec.
No names on it this time around, just some randomness to get you through the end of your day.
1) Not necessarily - He just looks cutie with a choker in his mouth.
2) I want Vinny to go to jail and be sodomised repeatedly in the laundry room.
3) Masturbate furiously with joy - oh, did that just get out. Can I sign that LJP?
4) Yea. Just read that - We're fucked.
5) ......shit - I had totally forgotten about that little prick until just now. Yea I blame him.
6) Laron. You FUCK.
7) I can think of two people who don't know this "so, as we all know, drafting on this is the only viable option."
8) Al Davis - is the real life Mr. Burns. Seriously, how long is that f***er going to live?
9) (Direct Response to 8) until Frodo and Sam - toss his SB rings into the fiery furnace of Mt. Doom
10) please consider this a helping of that terrible O-Line S*&% - The Redskins need a QB in 2010 like a fish needs a bicycle.
11) What happens in DC stays in DC - except Vinny, that shit'll come back with you.

I was looking at the playoff picture and this is what I came up with. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
This is from the playoff picture right now, it might change after tomorrow.
In the wild card round we would play Dallas at the dome. If we were to beat them we would then go to Carolina and play them. If we then manage to beat them we would then go on to face the winner of the other NFC bracket. That would be either the Giants, Falcons or Cardinals.
Now if we get to the NFC championship round we would more than likely be playing the Giants because, come on, Arizona sucks just a bit less than the rest of their division and I don't see the Falcons beating the Giants.
So the 3 games standing in our way of the superbowl would be.
Cowboys (@ Home)

Now the 3 teams we would likely play in the superbowl would be:
(Ravens are iffy)
Now all we gotta do is beat the giants to get in!

In case you missed this earlier, here is a scouting report about Christian Tiffert. Even briefer than the link is that he's a CM/RM with great set-play service and a strong long ball up the middle. He can be a deep lying playmaker or regista.
Now it looks like Joan Verdu's negotiations with Espanyol have blown up and he's now being actively shopped for a transfer. That he'd end up in Seattle still seems like a very long shot, but the possibility still exists, apparently.
While Sounder at Heart was chatting with Cordell Cato and Fredy Montero the rest of the gathered media talked to Alvaro Fernandez about the trade rumors. Linked today is Joshua Mayers transcript of that portion of their talk.
Use your favorite automated translator and learn that visas arrangements are being made for two Real Espana players to join MLS and undisclosed teams. One is a Reserve player. Seattle was previously connected to RE Reservist Ever Alvarado.
Aaron may get to enjoy both rooting for a man and against him as LA Galaxy Forward Robbie Keane is being linked to Aston Villa
For family reasons. Family also means Adidas? The star will be staying with the LA Galaxy on a rolling one year deal. Once looking incredibly weakened the MLS Cup & Supporters Shield holders lose only one starter from last year.
Former St Pauli attacking player could be headed to any team. Does he fit in Seattle? Probably not as he last played a center mid in late 2010.
It would easily be the largest transfer fee ever paid, even if only about half of what Eto'o's current team wants. The National is not a news organization with which I am familiar, but the rolling David Beckham deal is the current news and MLS & Didier Drogba have been linked before. Garber's statements about being a "top" league in the world would require moves like this. It is also a quite fantastic leap, one that may be too large to believe.

Republican from Wisconsin
Luther Olsen, a Republican state senator from Ripon, was elected to the Senate in 2004, after serving in the state Assembly for 10 years. He has served on the powerful Joint Committee on Finance. In 2011, following a vote in favor of Republican Gov. Scott Walker's controversial budget-repair bill, he was one of six GOP senators recalled and forced to stand for election.
Recent statements involving Luther Olsen
Says Sen. Luther Olsen, his recall opponent, supported the sale of state-owned power plants "not to the highest bidder, but to the biggest donors" with no oversight.

Startup Diaries: Helping Yourself To A Bigger Slice Of The Pie
Victoria Arnold, entrepreneur and founder of online ventures Desk Union and Homestayfriend, shares with The NextWomen her top five startup tips for female entrepreneurs, drawing on her own experiences of the highs and lows of entrepreneurship.
1. Dream big
Over the last few years, I have found that women often seem to get pigeonholed into the 'lifestyle business' category. Yes, this may be accurate for some, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with aspiring for a business that brings in enough revenue to support your life, however, I believe that women are missing out on the chance of a bigger slice of the pie.
I have to admit that ultra-confident, global aspirations seem to come more naturally to most of the male entrepreneurs I know …but really ladies, it's out there if you want it, so dream big and realise your potential!
2. Build a killer peer group
There's nothing quite like surrounding yourself with like-minded people. Entrepreneurship can often be a lonely journey, one which can weigh heavy on your shoulders with euphoric highs and all-time lows (often within a single day). To help me on my way, I've developed a core network of six fellow entrepreneurs who I trust implicitly. We meet up once a month to discuss our issues and work through options as a group. No matter how big or small my problem, it is incredibly reassuring to know that I can pick up the phone and talk to these folk any time. This has been instrumental to both my business development and personal growth.
Through no fault of their own, family and old friends can't always relate to the trials and tribulations of running a business, but my peer network can.
The waves of stress, the sleepless nights and the pangs of self-doubt can be tough going, so it really helps to know there are others out there on the same journey.
I honestly feel that my peer group is a huge driver to my achievements; if you haven't built up that trusted support network yet, make a start pronto!
3. Network till you drop
If you're not networking and meeting people at least three days per week, then you're missing a trick! No matter what type of enterprise you run, people need to know who you are. Networking is key for a number of reasons:
- People begin to remember your name and your company name
- You become associated with a specific skillset
- It's an awesome soft selling tool
- It initiates valuable introductions
Broadly speaking, going to a networking event won't directly bring you business, but you never know who you'll get talking to and who they might be connected with!
Don't people say we're only ever seven connections away from anyone in the world? Well, by networking effectively you are seriously increasing your chances of gaining that all important contact.
Be bold, be confident, and of course, when the conversation turns to the weather, politely excuse yourself and go and talk to someone else!
4. Get external support
One of the most important and life changing parts of my journey was joining a business incubator programme. Entrepreneurial Spark reshaped my mindset, and provided free workspace as well as access to funding. This programme enabled me to become hyper-connected with the entrepreneurial ecosystem.
Whether you sign up to a business incubator programme or not, there is a wide range of support out there for budding entrepreneurs. You have to really want it though! Be persistent and don't be afraid to ask.
Here are a few suggestions of who to approach:
- Local councils often have grants available for growth businesses
- Local enterprise agencies can provide practical and financial support
- Business incubators or accelerators have intensive programmes
- Banks are often overlooked, but if you work to build a good relationship with your business banking manager, you'll find they can often make great introductions
- Seasoned entrepreneurs are also an amazing resource of knowledge and will usually be more than happy to grab a coffee with you
5. Believe in yourself
Without doubt, the most instrumental element to your success is … you!
I used to laugh when advisors told me that it would take twice as long and cost twice as much as I thought it would to reach my goal, but they were absolutely right. Entrepreneurship is not for the faint-hearted.
You have to continue to believe in yourself, every hour of every day, and when you don't feel like smiling, you have to put up a positive front to the rest of the world. Don't forget that people are buying into YOU.
It's by no means easy. We all have good and bad days. But entrepreneurs are eternal optimists. We live with our heads in the clouds and dare to dream big. We're also not afraid of hard work and of learning from our mistakes. We roll up our sleeves and get stuck in!
From my experience, at times many female entrepreneurs will experience unwavering pangs of self-doubt (and I am no exception to this). I share an office with a couple of male entrepreneurs whose businesses are on exactly the same trajectory of growth as mine, but I have never heard them vocalise doubt or seen them cry quietly in the corner when the pressure is too much. Perhaps they do this in the privacy of their own home! Who knows? But as females, we are programmed with empathy and we shouldn't think of this as a negative. We make fantastic leaders and have the ability to grow confident, solid teams.
I find it essential to retune my mind and body every few weeks with some reflective time. Then I jump back in and it's full steam ahead! Taking time out every now and again is important and shouldn't be overlooked … believe me, I've tried powering through on more than one occasion … the words 'crash' and 'burn' come to mind!
Find the best way to keep up your momentum, remember why you started and believe in yourself!
You CAN do anything you put your mind to. I wasn't born to be a slave to someone else's dream, and if you're reading this, then I guess you weren't either.

I as well as everyone on here has struggled emotionally with this years team. It has too much talent and too many vets to let it go to hell as you saw last night in a wild 1 hit game. This stat gave me a small glimpse of renewed hope that all is not lost... It's time for a W streak.

Officials say they are considering scrapping plan to stagger tolls, aim for full tolling in fall 2016.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Police spoke with a "person of interest" described in a University of Louisville safety alert Monday, but did not make any arrest or file any charges, a school spokesman said. However, they encourged further tips on the situation.
The campus alert, emailed about 12:30 p.m. Monday, said, in essence, a man asking for directions may have wanted more than just a polite answer. He may have tried to lure a woman into his car. Students paid attention to the alert.
"If I am near the roads and stuff, I definitely do keep my eyes open and make sure it is clear and stuff," said student Emily Bushey.

Matt Howell is the Lance Armstrong of Inland athletic directors. Sunday he ripped off a 100-miler in Long Beach. This morning he paused long enough to convey some important information.
San Gorgonio and Beaumont will join the festivities in late December at the San Bernardino Kiwanis boys basketball tourney, tourney director Howell said. Not only that, but San Gorgonio will be back to co-host the 55th annual tourney, with Arroyo.
That's major for a couple of reasons … San G. was a mainstay of the tourney for years before disappearing last season. It also now means four SB City Unified schools are in the fold — Cajon, Pacific, Arroyo Valley and San Gorgonio.
San Bernardino High, loaded with talent next season, will continue to play elsewhere, Cardinal athletic director Patrick Mills said on Saturday.
The Kiwanis tourney was once the most prestigious in the Inland Empire. It's not what it was due to new schools and tourneys, but it's still relevant. The fact Ken Hubbs, Fred Lynn, Ronnie Lott, Corey Benjamin and Bryon Russell played in it says a lot.
Soon to be added to the Kiwanis host-school rotation will be the new San Bernardino City school, Indian Hills. The city's newest school will have a gym that houses three full courts and its A.D. John Anderson has expressed a desire to host the tourney.
"It (San G. returning) is nice because it spreads out the work load," Howell said. "We don't have to have everything at Arroyo Valley now. That will cut down on the early-morning games. More people will be able to attend the games.
San G. has been in the tourney forever and I don't know the reasons why they didn't participate last year but having them back is a good thing. And it's nice to get some new blood in Beaumont."
–John Murphy

First Year Reading Program 2013
Welcome! We're glad you've come to learn more about the First Year Reading Program and are excited that you will soon be joining us on campus.
The First Year Reading Program book selected for the Class of 2017 is Notes from No Man's Land, by Eula Biss. Members of the Class of 2017 will be mailed copies of the book in late summer.
In this series of forthright essays, Biss sets out to examine issues of race and identity in America through the lens of history and of family. She makes links between lynching and the spread of the telephone, both of which required tall straight poles in public places. She considers the legacy of Reconstruction in public school systems, particularly the New York City classrooms where she teaches, and questions the instruction to make her students "better people." She remembers the white and black dolls she shared with her sister in light of the famous Doll Studies of Mamie and Kenneth Clark, and she rereads Laura Ingalls Wilder as she settles into the Rogers Park neighborhood of Chicago.
Throughout, Biss acknowledges her own assumptions and privileges. Never hesitating to ask difficult questions and face the sometimes-embarrassing answers, she still remains hopeful about the possibilities of diversity. - Graywolf Press
Key Events
Throughout the academic year, there will be a number of interesting programs and events related to themes in this year's book, Notes from No Man's Land. Keep an eye on the Events section to learn more about what we've got planned. Key events include:
Small Group Book Discussions
On Monday, August 26th, 2013 at 11a.m., all first-year students will participate in dynamic group discussions of this year's book.
Assembly Series
Monday, September 9, 7 p.m. Location: Edison Theatre
Eula Biss, author of Notes from No Man's Land.

I'm diggin' that soundtrack.
Not a fan of video lists. I will never know what the top 20 are.
I won an NL competition a few years ago for a t-shirt of some lawn dart? WiiWare game that I didn't even want. The shirt never came. I didn't really care. The End.
Just got a classic white and whimsical blue to go with my sultry black and fierce red... thanks for the tip!
Altered Beast is one of the greatest games of all time. This is why one should never trust reviews. POWER UP.
pretty soon we'll have an entire walkthrough in the form of these "articles."
remote = $40
nunchuck = $20
mario kart = ~$40
we're at $100 and haven't even factored in the console. it's really a great deal.
This would be the greatest thing to ever happen. I remember my Genesis copy came with a Shaq Diesel CD... so good. I still have the game, but unfortunately the CD has been lost in time...
If these guys sold one of their yachts they'd already have the money.
I'm pretty sure the smug expression guy is playing the dam level of TMNT.
I don't believe Iwata ever referred to the game as being called "Yarn Yoshi." Is this info coming from someplace else?
i know it shouldn't, but it really bothers me that she doesn't press the cart down...
i am so pumped i won this... dare i say... wiiWEAR!?

Not too long ago I blogged about taking time to celebrate milestones—even the smaller ones—to stay motivated, to recognize hard work, and to recharge. Well I'm taking my own advice and partying like it's the freaking weekend today because FINALLY, after working on this work-in-eternal-progress for more than a year,
I have a completed first draft that makes me happy.
A year ago I was querying, planning a wedding, and trying to find something to take my mind off of real life. This idea came along and I was all…
Then I shut down the query process because I had gotten tons of incredible, consistent feedback that I knew could be applied to make this project stronger. So I *gasp* outlined. It was hard.
And technically I finished a draft. But it was just… not… right.
So I went back to the proverbial drawing board (Scrivener!) and did a bunch of writing exercises that helped expand the possibilities for my characters.
The plot was about ten times better, but hot damn did all that make for a lot more work to be done.
Right after I got started on the new and improved outline (basically a re-write), a couple months of Everything In Life Happening came up. Weddings, graduations, vacations, work trips… you name it, it happened, and I was pretty useless when it came to writing.
Then after the lifesplosion ended, I was sort of just lazy. Unmotivated. Really pretty out of it, to be honest.
Then! I was lucky enough to spend five days surrounded by some of the most amazing writers I know, and hands-down the best, silliest, most genuine motivators ever.
Then last week my laptop was stolen. Long story.
BUT I PERSEVERED and last night at around 11:00 p.m. (way past my bedtime let me tell you) I typed the sentence that I knew was the absolute most wonderful perfect last sentence 1 and I realized…
So now, WE CELEBRATE!
Hammer might not have been the most willing participant in that particular moment of celebration. But don't worry, he's got a can of tuna with his name on it for later.
What about you?? What have you achieved lately? What are you working toward? Anyone else jumping head-first into revisions??

This place just defies logic. We still can't figure out why it has the same menu (and same prices) as the stylish Haus Win (same management). The décor is far more appealing at the Haus Win and transfers are free, so there's no point eating here. Please change the marketing director!

Why waste money buying storage and freezer bags! Just use freezer bags for all your storage needs. I use freezer bags for everything. The freezer bag is more durable and keeps the food you're storing fresher longer!
I have noticed that freezer bags are a bit sturdier than regular 'food storage' bags. I haven't done a price comparison yet to determine if the price works out (throwing away torn food storage bags vs. more money for freezer bags) so I'm wondering if this would be a selling point. Simply getting frustrated having bags rip and air get at your food might be enough.
Anyone have thoughts on this?
I recommend using freezer bags simply because I wash and reuse them unless they were used to store meat. Freezer bags are stronger and last longer than storage bags.
Freezer bags are a little more expensive but are stronger and can be reused. Many people wash them but I buy the cheapest sandwich bags (fold over) to make serving size portions of food, squeeze out the air (usually roll in hands or flatten), then place inside a "good" gallon size freezer bag, (squeeze air out again) which is marked with the contents – no date. I discard the sandwich bags but I reuse the freezer bags as long as they stay clean (months). I don't keep food in the freezer longer than one month unless I use my Food Saver. This system avoids freezer burn for me. Dee
Brilliant! Why didn't I think of that?
I do this using leftover bread bags as the inner bag which I cut to whatever length I prefer. Works wonderfully because the outer freezer bag can be reused MANY times. I use the vacuum freezer bags and after the initial investment there is no further cost for a very long time.
I only use freezer bags. I can wash and re-use them if they wern't used for something like raw meat. You can also use them when traveling for make-up, shampoo, and the like. Buy them at Costco and they last me for a long time!
I always use freezer bags for all of my food storage. One added value is, that are strong enough to wash and reuse for storage of other items, which is an added benefit.
For those interested in re-using your freezer bags I recommend checking out BagDri. It's nice to wash them out till you realize you have nowhere to dry them.

Four-year-old loses battle with inoperable brain tumour (From Daily Echo)

Four-year-old Hampshire boy Jack Robinson has died from a brain tumour
Updated 11:52am Tuesday 1st April 2014 in News
A FOUR-year-old has died after losing a battle with an inoperable brain tumour.
Four-year-old Jack Robinson passed away peacefully in the early hours of this morning.
Jack had received great support from the community and had been living out a 'bucket list' that included meeting Take That star Gary Barlow at Southampton General Hospital and a video message from Dr Who actor Matt Smith.
His parents Marie, 41, and Terence, 47, and siblings Danielle, 21, Christina, 18, Natalie, 14, and identical twin brother Liam, of Denmead, had been working hard over the past few months to make his final wishes come true.
Jack, who had been given only a five per cent survival chance, had been staying at children's hospice Naomi House, in Sutton Scotney, near Winchester.

How to write to the stars
Very few shows and even fewer stars maintain a public email address. (Or at least an address they will admit to!) Consider how you would feel about tens of thousands of people sending you email, and just how upset you would be if you didn't get a prompt reply.
The facts of life are that you can rarely, if ever, send mail and expect a personal reply from anyone in a major starring role whether it is on television, radio or movies.
However, you can always send mail to the star in care of the production company that produces the show that the star appears in. Virtually all the production companies maintain a staff that reads and answers mail for the program and the stars. Some personalities expect that copies of all mail is sent to them, others will have copies of mail sent to their own staff and still others will only read mail that someone has deemed of special interest to the star.
So send your mail! Someone will always read it and, who knows, you may just get a personal answer from your favorite star!
Look above at the list of shows and production companies and find the show you are interested in. If an email address is available, it will be shown in addition to the U.S. Mail address. If there is no email address shown, there is not one available! Get out the pen and paper and write a traditional letter.
For shows that are currently being broadcast on the Fox Television Network, Fox may be able to answer some questions. You can email them at email@example.com, call 310-369-1000 or write to: Fox Broadcasting Company, Attn: (Show Title and/or Actor's Name), PO Box 900, Beverly Hills, CA 90213-0900.
Please note: email sent to WVAH Fox11 about a show or its stars will simply be returned to you with a note pointing to these instructions! As a local Fox affiliate in Charleston-Huntington West Virginia, we have no more access to a show or star than you do.

Supply of antivenin for coral snake bites is dwindling
TAMPA, Fla. - "My first reaction was, 'Okay, I got bit by a poisonous snake'," recalled Tim Cashman.
Cashman was clearing brush on his property in Wimauma when he lifted a piece of wood and was bit on the finger by a venomous Coral snake. He knew what he needed to do.
"Basically, I need to get to the hospital and stay calm," he remembers.
The hospital closest to where Tim lives didn't have the antivenin necessary to treat a coral snake bite. So he was transported to Tampa General Hospital where he was given the opportunity to take an antivenin that's not yet approved by the FDA.
That's because the only FDA approved antivenin for coral snake bites is no longer being produced by the pharmaceutical company that was making it.
"Of course, when you have a limited amount, it tends to dwindle in supply and that's what happened," said Dr. Cynthia Lewis-Younger of the Florida Poison Information Center of Tampa.
In fact, the current batch expires at the end of October, with just one lot of antivenin remaining. But the clinical trial of antivenin that Tim Cashman said yes to, appears to have worked.
Tampa General is taking part in the trial that is being developed at the University of Arizona; a trial that Dr. Younger feels could provide a solution for the future.
"I'm both cautiously hopeful that we will have a solution, a good solution to the problem. And I'm also concerned that no one else will do this," said Younger.
Tim Cashman is glad he took the alternative option.
"I'm really happy they're doing it because if we've got a shortage of the FDA-approved one, and if they can this FDA approved through the research one then I think that'll be a better alternative," Cashman said.

Remember Me
Two District Championships, a semi-final regional appearance and a slew of wins over the past four years seemed to have the Ladycats poised as the powerhouse team in the 38th District.
Senior Jennifer Dixon knocks down the short corner jumper in her last game in the 10th Region Tournament v Bishop Brossart. The Ladycats season came to an end in the 58-51 loss.
You ask any coach and while they strive hard to win games in the regular season, it is all window dressing for the postseason. That is when seasons are made.
While the Ladycats dropped their 10th Region Tournament first round game to Brossart 58-51, they won only the fifth 38th District Title banner in the 38-year history of the program. The senior class was a part of two district titles and a region semi-finals appearance during their four years.
The Ladycats drew the #2 ranked Bishop Brossart in the first round of the 10th Region Tournament to be played at Nicholas County. They tip off at 8 p.m. on Wednesday, February 27.
Brossart was upset by Campbell County in the finals of the 37th District Tournament.
Also, on the bracket side for Pendleton and a possible second round match-up is 10th Region favorite, Montgomery County, or longtime rival Bracken County. They play the game before PC on Wednesday at 6:30 p.m.
The Ladycats make their third trip in four years to the region tournament under varsity coach Scott Collins. Two years ago, they make a run to the 10th Region semifinals for only the fourth time in school history.
The Pendleton County Ladycats basketball team said goodbye to five players on Senior Night. They are, pictured from left, Jennifer Dixon, Bradi Boden, Tori Fitzpatrick, Heather Jolley, and Ashten Wolfe.
While the regular season ended not the way the Ladycats had hoped, it didn't diminish their goal of bringing home a 38th District Crown to PCHS.
With senior center Heather Jolley out with a sprained ankle, coach Collins will have several options to choose from in regards to how to battle Harrison County on Monday night and the Fillies' center, Jordan Doram.
He could go small and start seniors Bradi Boden, leading the Ladycats in scoring, and point forward Ashten Wolfe. Add in junior Taylor McClanahan at the post with sophomore wing McKayla Manor, 2nd on the team in scoring and a deadly 3-point shooter, and point guard Isabella Hall.
Jenna Kelsch O'Hara and David Tackett were recognized at the Ladycats game versus George Rogers Clark on Saturday night for their selection into the 10th Region Girls Basketball Coaches Association Hall of Fame in 2012.
At the end of the 2012 season, the 10th Region girls basketball coaches selected the Class of 2012 for their Hall of Fame. Two Ladycats were selected to receive the honor and join the growing Pendleton County contingent in the 10th Region Hall of Fame. Jenna Kelsch as a player who starred as a point guard for the Ladycats in 1999-2004 and David Tackett who has been a supporter, coach and fan of Ladycat basketball since the 70s.
While coach Scott Collins is focused on finding a strategy for his reeling Ladycats, who have lost four games in a row by an average of 28 points, as they head into 38th District play, it might not include senior center Heather Jolley who sprained her ankle in Saturday night's 78-32 loss to George Rogers Clark.
Heather was averaging 8.9 PPG and 8.9 RPG and provided a defensive presence in the paint with 2.2 blocked shots per game. Her height and rebounding would be sorely needed against Harrison County's Jordan Doram. Harrison County is the Ladycats first round district opponent.
With the old adage, "there is no good way to get there from here" in mind, the trip from PCHS to either Grant County or Williamstown is always fraught with that drive over that has taken many a good team out of the game before they have arrived.
We are going to chalk up the Ladycats surprising 71-54 loss to Williamstown up to the drive that had the Ladycats unfocused, unmotivated and unprepared for their game.
"Blah would be my first reaction," Coach Scott Collins responded on his team's effort. "We were not focused. We got the ball in the lane 18 times in the first half and converted four times."
On back-to-back nights, the Ladycats played Harrison County in the first round of 38th District JV and Freshmen play, then hosted Nicholas County for the championships.
And in both cases, Nicholas County was able to get the better of the Ladycats and win the JV and Freshmen 38th District Championships.
While the games against your district rivals means little in December, January and early February, it's always nice to send the message that the 38th District Title runs through your team come the week of February 18th.
That said, the Ladycats had a chance to post back-to-back regular season undefeated records against district foes after defeating Harrison County and Deming earlier in the season.
With point guards Ashten Wolfe (still recovering from an ankle injury) and Isabella Hall (battling illness) out of the lineup or hobbling, Coach Scott Collins found himself short-handed once again in a key stretch of the schedule.

How to Interpret Satellite Imagery
Satellite Imagery on WunderMap
Satellites provide data from space to monitor the Earth to analyze the coastal waters, relay life-saving emergency beacons, and track tropical storms and hurricanes. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) operates two types of satellite systems for the United States - geostationary satellites and polar-orbiting satellites. Geostationary satellites constantly monitor the Western Hemisphere from around 22,240 miles above the Earth, and polar-orbiting satellites circle the Earth and provide global information from 540 miles above the Earth.
Satellites enable us to provide consistent, long-term observations, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. They track fast breaking storms across "Tornado Alley" as well as tropical storms in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. In addition to weather, data from satellites are used to measure the temperature of the ocean, which is a key indicator of climate change. Satellite information is also used to monitor coral reefs, harmful algal blooms, fires, and volcanic ash. Monitoring the Earth from space helps us understand how the Earth works and affects much of our daily lives.
Infrared (IR) Satellite Imagery
Visible Satellite Imagery"Visible" satellite imagery is a snapshot of the earth and is only available during the day as it uses light from the sun to detect the clouds. Low clouds are dark and high clouds are lighter.
Geostationary Satellites (GOES)
GOES satellites provide continuous monitoring of weather patterns. They circle the Earth in a geosynchronous orbit, which means they orbit the equatorial plane of the Earth at a speed matching the Earth's rotation. This allows them to hover continuously over one spot on the Earth's surface. The geosynchronous plane is about 35,800 km (22,300 miles) above the Earth, high enough to allow the satellites a full-disc view of the Earth. Because they stay above a fixed spot on the surface, they provide a constant vigil for the atmospheric "triggers" for severe weather conditions such as tornadoes, flash floods, hail storms, and hurricanes. When these conditions develop, the GOES satellites are able to monitor storm development and track their movements.
GOES satellite imagery is also used to estimate rainfall during the thunderstorms and hurricanes for flash flood warnings, as well as estimates snowfall accumulations and overall extent of snow cover. Such data help meteorologists issue winter storm warnings and spring snow melt advisories. Satellite sensors also detect ice fields and map the movements of sea and lake ice.
Polar-Orbiting Satellites (POES)
Polar-orbiting satellites offer the advantage of daily global coverage. Because of the polar orbiting nature of the POES series satellites, these satellites are able to collect global data on a daily basis for a variety of land, ocean, and atmospheric applications. Data from polar-orbiting satellites aids in weather analysis and forecasting, climate research and prediction, global sea surface temperature measurements, atmospheric soundings of temperature and humidity, ocean dynamics research, volcanic eruption monitoring, forest fire detection, global vegetation analysis, search and rescue, and many other applications.

Are the Canucks "Canada's Team?" Do we care?
There's a lot of talk about whether or not the Canucks are "Canada's team" lately, given that they're the last remaining Canadian team in the playoffs and the fact that a Canadian based team has not won the Stanley Cup since 1993. So are they Canada's team? Do we care?
The answer to both questions in my opinion is a resounding 'no'. The Canucks are not Canada's team. Sure, there will be some people in the rest of Canada that pull for the Canucks. People in the east probably don't have an axe to grind with Canucks fans and probably would like to see the Cup come to the west coast. What about Ontario? If they know how much we hate the Leafs, they might not pull for us. As for any fan of the Flames or Oilers, I'm pretty sure they hate the Canucks with a passion.
So the Canucks probably aren't "Canada's team" in the way that the Flames, Oilers and Senators were in 2004, 2006 and 2007. Why is that? Well, for one they're not a small market team like those three teams. They're also not an underdog like the Flames and Oilers were. And more so than the Flames, Oilers and Senators, the Canucks have a pretty cocky fan base! I'm a Canucks fan through and through, but our fan base is much more similar to that of the Toronto Maple Leafs than the Ottawa Senators.
But you know what? We don't care! If the Canucks win the Stanley Cup and they're not cheering in Calgary, it won't bother me for a second. If anything, punishing Flames fans even more would make me enjoy it all the more.

The Food and Drug Administration has named the farm involved in the salmonella outbreak tied to melons.
Tim Chamberlain of Chamberlain Farms in Owensville, Indiana, has voluntarily stopped production at his farm on August 16. The farm has been in operation since 1982 and has not had any other problems besides the recent outbreak that has been blamed for at least two deaths.
According to Chamberlain, the source of the outbreak is unknown and he is waiting on instructions from the government before he decides what to do next.
The outbreak is under investigation by the FDA and Chamberlain Farms may not be the only source.
