Question: Cavities - What Are Baby Bottle Cavities?
Early Childhood CavitiesEarly Childhood Cavities (ECC), more commonly known as "baby bottle tooth decay" is a condition that affects children up to the age of three, or as long as they remain using a bottle. Although rare, ECC may indicate the potential risk for severe tooth decay when the child develops their adult teeth. ECC is caused by:
- Sugars and carbohydrates in the child's diet
- Beverages that contain sugar such as milk, infant formula, fruit juice, or any other liquid that contain or is sweetened with sugar.
- Bacteria transferred from the caregiver to the child
- The frequency of feedings
- Allowing a child to fall asleep with bottle that contains any liquid other than pure water.
Prevent early childhood decay by:
- Offering a pacifier rather than a bottle during naps and bed time
- Speak with your dentist for advice on how to expose your child to fluoride, if it is not available through your water supply. Fluoride is recommended by the American Dental Association to strengthen teeth, which may prevent tooth decay.
- If using a bottle during periods of sleep, fill the bottle with only pure water.

Safety mottos are usually invented to
help people remember what they are supposed to do. Mottos
tend to be a few words or sentences
long, and stand out through being funny,
memorable, or rhyming, so that they are easy to remember.
Many companies invest in safety mottos to make
sure that both employees and customers are safe while on
their premises, and to encourage doing safe
Below: We see so many warning, rule,
and safety signs that we suffer from 'sign blindness'. This is
where safety mottos rule; one large safety sign with a motto
that makes us really think, is worth a dozen signs that 'just
warn' us and don't capture our attention or
A safety slogan example is "Stop,
drop and roll", an action to take if you ever find
yourself on fire (we laugh, but it happens). This
slogan is effective because in the panic of the
situation, you may forget what to do, so the simple,
rhyming words are easy to remember and should calm you
down and tell you what to do. Other safety slogans focus
on preventing accidents, or recovering after an accident,
but they all still work in the same way; they are
memorable and should come to mind easily. Other popular
general slogans are:
Alert today, alive
Accidents hurt, safety
Avoid the worst, put safety
Be alert, accidents hurt
Be alert, be aware, be
Be proactive, not reactive, towards
The above are examples of safety slogans
that are general and can be kept in mind anytime,
anywhere, but a lot of safety slogans are aimed at
just one area of your life, such as home, work or
driving, and we'll show a few of those next.

Ohio Judge With Posters of Che and Obama, Where's MSM Outrage?
The AP had a short newsbreak story on Lorain County Common Pleas Judge James Burge who ruled that the state must stop the method of executions in the state, saying that the "lethal injection procedure doesn't provide the quick and painless death required by Ohio law." Accompanying the short story is the picture we post here showing the judge in his office where he proudly displays two posters, one with murderer, insurrectionist and communist Che Guevara upon it and the other is the famous "Hope" poster put out by the Barack Obama campaign.
This makes one wonder about the lack of reaction to this photo seen today from the media. Let us imagine if this judge happened to be considered a conservative. Supposing this judge had a poster of a right-wing dictator -- maybe even Hitler -- displayed side-by-side with a John McCain for president poster or a George W. Bush poster. So, what would the media be doing today should such a picture coupling McCain with a murderous, oppressor on the right be making the rounds? Who can doubt that the media would be completely out of it's mind (and rightfully so, by the way) about a judge that would seem to be celebrating a right-wing dictator?
Yet, here we have a judge, a public official, proudly showing fealty to a monster of the left, Che Guevara, a man that despised the U.S. and everything it stands for, without the media raising even a whimper! In fact, they publish it as if this judge deserved to be given respect.
My comparison between Che and Hitler is exact, too, even as Che wasn't quite up to the criminal totality of Adolf Hitler, it wasn't because he didn't want to be, it was just because he didn't have the power to be a Hitler redux.
If you need any other proof that the media is blind to the anti-Americanism that is leftism, this is it.
I want to clarify a point here. I have had someone question what I mean about Hitler being a "right-wing dictator." My use of Hitler was in response to how the media would see an opposite of a Che Guevara type. I am not implying that Hitler was a conservative, or right-wing. Hitler's ideology is clearly the perfect example of the ultimate destination of leftist thought. He was a socialist, and the quintessential left-winger, not a conservative.

I think you're going things
Submitted by maggied on Mon, 05/16/2011 - 5:19pm.
I think you're going things too far, the fact that he displays those posters doesn't make him less worthy of a judge. Why would media react? It doesn't make any sense. Jonathan Dickstein once said that politics and justice are not two compatible fields and I happen to agree. The fact that the judge has these posters on the wall shouldn't tell us anything about his ability of making justice.

CATEGORIES Action, Comedy, Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Casting, Universal, Fandom, Newsstand, Movies, CinematicalI really enjoy Natalie Portman when she cuts loose and has some fun (albeit not in that Manic Pixie Dream Girl sort of way) outside of her dramatic indie fare. So color me happy that she's just signed onto a comedy. It's not just any comedy either, as Variety reports that she's joined Your Highness, the medieval farce starring James Franco and Danny McBride.
As you might remember, Your Highness teams McBride and Franco back up with their Pinapple Express director, David Gordon Green. McBride (who penned the script with Ben Best) plays an arrogant, lazy prince who teams up with his brother (played by Franco) to complete a quest, save the kingdom, and Franco's fiancee. Portman will play "a warrior princess" that McBride's prince falls in love with. So, you know what this means -- Portman will be clad in strategically placed leather and chainmail, and that sound you heard was the lustful groan of a million fanboys imagining her doing high kicks. Well played, McBride. Well played.
The film begins shooting this July in Ireland. As you wait for the first photos to emerge from production, you can start Photoshopping Xena: Warrior Princess and Red Sonja outfits on Portman, and see how close fantasy matches reality.

Before we get going on this week's Kubiak Konundrum, first a few updates from the Raiders game: the decision to punt rather than attempt a 55 yard field goal averaged a 2.6 on the decision meter, so it gets a neutral 3.
Also, theSpaceCityKid brought up the inability to get two plays off at the end of the game. I first gave Kubiak a pass because he said the play was designed in fact to get two plays off and the implication was Schaub ad libbed; however, I do agree that Kubiak should have absolutely made sure Schaub would get two off. He should have been pounding it through the helmet radio, and Kubiak has to take some of the blame for his leader's inability to follow through on his plan. It gets a 2, and, frankly, I considered giving it a 1 for the first terrible decision of the season.
Enough avoiding the ugly beast of last week's game. Onto the Ravens. Unfortunately, my dvr had a mishap (or was it a freudian erase?), and I wasn't able to rewatch the game. I took plenty of notes though during the game, so the Kunundrum should survive this week, but fire away in the comments if I missed something and I'll add it to the scorecard.
Because of the lack of the DVR and the fact that I'm heading to New Orleans for my bachelor party and aim to forget last week's game entirely, we're going to dispense with the pleasantries and get right to it.
As always, 1=terrible call, 2=negative, 3=neutral, 4=positive, and 5=outstanding.
2Q. 7:47 left. 4th and 1. Texans ball. Ravens' 20 yard line.
No need to give this one a lot of build up. We all know what the dilemma was and what subsequently happened. What I want to know is: what were the people in your party yelling before the call? Cue The Clash: Should he punt or should he go now?
My living room voted 1 go for it, 2 against (including my hesitant self), and an abstention. I think down seven to a tough D, we needed the points, but I didn't necessarily mind the ballsy call. Another arrow through the apple of the argument that Kubiak is conservative.
Still, we are here to measure not what we thought about calls with our preconceived notions and strategies, but how they worked out. That the play did not net us immediate points or a first down makes it a negative. That the Texans quickly got the ball back in Ravens' territory and scored makes it only mild.
2Q. 19 seconds. Texans Ball. Down 10-7. Around the Texans' 35 yard line.
Last week, we discussed Kubiak running the ball twice when getting the ball late in the 1st half. Here, with much less time, he immediately let Matt Schaub throw the ball, quickly putting us on the outskirts of field goal position.
I don't think it's any sort of groundbreaking call and it will only get a neutral 3 here, but I included it to highlight Kubiak's late 1st half strategy. He clearly considers the ten yards between the 20 and the 30 to be monumental in dictating how aggressively to proceed. I think he would find a lot of company among NFL coaches in that conviction and think that as much fun it is to see the team chuck the ball down the field, it might just be for the best.
2Q. 8 seconds. Texans ball on Ravens' 42. No timeouts.
With 8 seconds left, no timeouts, and a makeable (albeit it boomer of a field goal) opportunity, running another play was a bit risky. Before the play, I wrote that I agreed with it but that unlike last week's game-ending play, he had to absolutely make sure Schaub threw it to the sidelines or threw it away qick. Anything else would be unacceptable. Schaub did in fact throw it away. No harm, no foul, neutral 3, moving along.
2Q. 3 seconds. Texans ball on Ravens' 42.
Wait what? No field goal attempt? So, obviously, if you wouldn't kick here, the last decision to try to get more yardage with eight seconds left was an obvious one. Why did I include it then? To show how convinced I was (and am) that Neil Rackers at least had a solid chance to make the field goal.
This is the second week in a row that we've discussed Kubiak choosing against a long field goal. I know he saw how much stronger Rackers' leg looked in preseason, and I can only assume that holds in practice. So, I can say this is an instance I truly believe Kubiak is being too conservative. Take that arrow out of the aforementioned apple. For today, Kubiak at least proved to be neutral on the conservative scale.
But, for the purpose of decision-making on this play, he was most decidedly negative. The game might have ended lopsided, but the ghost of Mojo Van Lackey knows we could have used those three points with about five minutes left in the fourth quarter. My only question is: was Kubiak's decision only a two on our Konundrum Scale or the year's first 1? You be the judge in the poll.
So, that's it. Yes, I just double-checked my notes and didn't see a second half decision I marked down. I'm not sure if that was me getting wrapped up in the game or the game getting wrapped up with four minutes left, so have at it in the comments if I missed anything.
Til' next time, where after my trip to New Orleans, I will hopefully still be intact, just like our place as the division favorites after the BESF game.
Ravens Konundrum results:
2: 1 play.
3: 2 plays.
TBD: 1 play.
2: 5 plays.
3: 6 plays.
4: 5 plays.

The Neurology Residency Training Program at the University of Maryland School of Medicine is designed to provide comprehensive training in neurology and is fully accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education. The hospitals incorporated into the program offer broad clinical training experiences in acute, referral, consultative, ambulatory, and rehabilitation neurology. Although the structured portions of the training program focus on the development of clinical skills, there are numerous opportunities for elective and subspecialty experiences to develop expertise in clinical and neuroscience research.
The Department of Neurology at the University of Maryland Medical System gives state-of-the-art training in neurology by providing exposure to a broad range of patients, utilizing the latest diagnostic techniques and advanced treatments. Instruction is predominantly by full-time faculty members. The goal of training is to produce residents whose excellence in clinical neurology is complemented by an understanding and appreciation of the neurosciences.
Six or seven PGY-2 residents are accepted each year into the Neurology Residency Training Program (PGY-2 to PGY-4). Applicants should apply through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS; www.aamc.org) and the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP; www.nrmp.org). To be eligible, candidates must graduate from an approved American or Canadian medical school or obtain ECFMG certification. To be considered for an interview with our program we require clinical experience in the United States sufficient to insure that the applicant is competitive for a PGY-1 position in an ACGME-accredited program.
Prior to beginning training in neurology, a PGY-1 year with at least eight months of internal medicine is required at an ACGME-accredited institution in the United States. The University of Maryland Internal Medicine Program provides excellent training through their Preliminary year program; more information about the curriculum can be found on their website www.umm.edu/imres. There are also multiple other training programs in the Baltimore area and elsewhere that would fulfill this requirement. Applicants are encouraged to explore all PGY-1 options to determine what setting is best for their individual needs. Residents participating in this coordinated experience may elect to participate in a one month neurology subspecialty clinic rotation during their PGY-1 year.
Throughout the three years of neurology residency training the residents follow patients in their continuity clinic in the Department's ambulatory center. Additional exposure to the management of neurological out-patients is provided by participation in the Department's specialty clinics as well as the VA Medical Center's subspecialty outpatient clinics.
In-hospital night call averages every sixth night during the PGY-2 year and twice monthly in the PGY-3 year. PGY-4 residents periodically are on home call and are available to help the junior residents who are in-house.
A full program of weekly conferences is scheduled to complement the traditional patient-oriented bedside teaching. Grand Rounds are given in the form of formal lectures on a variety of current topics in Neurology and allied specialties. National and local speakers are invited to give lectures on their specific areas of expertise. This lecture is followed by a clinical case conference presented by residents.
Lunch time educational conferences are held nearly every day of the week. The conferences cover a variety of topics including multiple sclerosis, cerebrovascular disease, neuro-oncology, neuromuscular disorders, epilepsy, neuro-ophthamology, and neuro-degenerative disorders among others. The conferences are given by specialists in the field. There is also a summer series of emergency neurology lectures addressing management of status epilepticus, brain edema and hernation, stroke, spinal cord injury, etc. Other conferences are dedicated to the related fields of neuroimaging and psychiatry. Chairman's rounds are conducted weekly.
There are many local and national educational conference opportunities. The residents are significantly involved in teaching neurology to the medical students during their one-month long rotation in neurology. This is very rewarding and also further reinforces resident learning.
Mentorship programs are in place to guide residents in their career paths. Residents are expected to participate in research projects in collaboration with faculty preceptors.
Neurology residents are prepared for the Neurology Board examinations by a comprehensive weekly didactic teaching course, in-service exams, and ABPN-mandated clinical examinations administered by faculty. By the conclusion of their three year residency, our graduates are well prepared for the future and have been highly successful in competing for prestigious positions as fellows, researchers and clinical neurologists. We take great pride in our Neurology Residency Program and its graduates, and we welcome inquiries.
Block Rotation Schedule: Academic year 2013-14: Total # of 4 week block rotations
*Note: for 2013-14 PGY4 residents are on Calendar month rather than 4 week rotations
For patient inquiries or to make an appointment, call 1-800-492-5538.

Various videos of shit that various rappers say or don't say, etc.
This trend still hasn't died yet, and it probably doesn't help that I'm continuing it along by posting these videos. Whatevs. Julia Beverly grabbed some of her rapper friends like Paul Wall, Slim Thug, Killer Mike, Kim Osorio, and Mecca for "Shit Rappers Say," and it's pretty funny. It's always amusing when people can poke fun at themselves. Not to shamelessly promote myself, but the would-be "Shit Julie Says" amused me.
And then there's "Shit Rappers Don't Say" (but we all think). I added that last bit in the parenthesis, FYI. So true. And so funny.
Ahahaha the cat in the beginning…I guess my life isn't too different than that of an unsigned rapper? Unsigned rapper, blogger for hire, yeah, same difference. This kid in "Shit That Unsigned Rappers Say" also had me cackling. As a bonus, this was also the shortest one for everyone else that has a short attention span out there like yours truly.

"This kid keeps pushing it to get out there faster and faster. I completely respect him for that. He's an animal. I love it. But there's no way he's going to be ready by December. People keep asking why he's had so many knee surgeries. That's exactly why he's had that many knee surgeries. I doubt [there will be an interim title]. When we did the belt for Brock Lesnar, we didn't know if Brock was ever going to come back or if he'd be out for a year or two. No interim title. We know this kid is coming back. He's already had the surgery. He knows exactly the date he can come back."
UFC President Dana White nixed the idea of a possible early comeback for the injured Mauricio "Shogun" Rua. Following a recent successful knee surgery, Rua expressed his desire to return to the Octagon sometime this winter, possibly as soon as December. But D.W. doesn't sound like he's having any of that. White added that that a likely return for the new 205-pound champion is spring or even summer of 2011. To Rashad Evans' dismay, White also stated that there will be no interim belt up for grabs while "Shogun" fully recovers. What do we think about Dana's decision? Should we have to wait until next summer to see the best of the light heavyweight division in action?

Cameron man is arrested for his connection with a November 2012 home invasion robbery in Rockdale. Tyrone Dewayne Blaylock is the second of two suspects that were arrested for the home invasion.
Rockdale police say two men forced their way into a woman's home believing there was money there from her business. The suspects searched her and her house and ended up getting away only with a relatively small amount of money.
The female suspect was able to identify the two suspects, and Rockdale investigators were able to get arrest warrants for one of them.
Police were able to arrest Giovanni Miller, but Blaylock was arrested by Temple police Tuesday.
The Special Investigations Unit found out that Blaylock might be in Temple and found him in the 200 block of South Henderson. He was taken without incident and is in Bell County Jail.

Chocolate-Mocha Angel Food Cake
Journal as 1 portion sweet dessert.
The flavor combination of chocolate, coffee, and sugar in this cake is simply addicting. I love how you can take something simple like an angel food cake mix and make it spectacular with just a few added ingredients.
1 box (1-pound size) one-step angel food cake mix
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
1 1/3 cups very strong decaffeinated coffee, cooled
8 ounces light whipping cream or Light Cool Whip (optional)
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Move oven rack to lowest position if you're using a tube pan, or the middle position for loaf pans.
- Mix cake mix with cocoa in large glass or metal bowl at low speed until blended.
- Pour in coffee and mix at low speed until moistened. Then beat exactly 1 minute at medium speed. Pour batter into an ungreased tube pan (10x4-inch) or two (9x5-inch loaf pans).
- Bake 35 to 45 minutes for tube pan, and 33 to 43 minutes for loaf pans. Cake is done when crust is deep golden brown and cracks on top appear dry. DO NOT UNDERBAKE.
- Cool tube cake upside down on a glass bottle or heatproof surface until completely cool. Cool loaves in pans tipped on side on cooling rack until completely cool.
- Loosen edges with flat knife or metal spatula to remove from pans.
- Whip up whipped cream if desired, adding powdered sugar to taste toward end of whipping.
Makes 12 servings.
Per serving (without whipped cream): 159 calories, 4 g protein, 36 g carbohydrate, 0.5 g fat, 0.3 g saturated fat, 0 mg cholesterol, 331 mg sodium, 1 g fiber. Calories from fat: 3%. Per serving (with light whipping cream): 214 calories, 21 mg cholesterol, 6 g fat (25% calories from fat).
Chewy, chippy, chocolate cookies
Journal 1 cookie as 1/4 cup cold cereal, granola.
Nothing beats a warm chocolate chip oatmeal cookie right from the oven!
5 tablespoons butter, softened
3 tablespoons fat-free cream cheese
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/4 cup white sugar (Splenda can be substituted)
1/4 cup egg substitute
3/4 cup white or whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup quick-cooking oatmeal
1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- In mixing bowl, cream together butter, cream cheese, brown and white sugars. Add egg substitute and beat well.
- Add flour, soda, salt, and vanilla to butter mixture and beat until well blended. Stir in chocolate chips, oatmeal, and nuts if desired. Blend thoroughly.
- Use a cookie scoop to drop cookie dough onto a cookie sheet coated with canola cooking spray. To make a flatter cookie, spray the bottom of a flat-bottomed glass with canola cooking spray and press onto the cookie dough balls.
- Bake in center of oven until lightly golden (about 8 minutes.) Remove cookies and let cool on wire rack.

A family of three is left homeless after an overnight fire in Augusta County.
One person was home at the time, and reported the blaze about 1 a.m. Thursday. The house along East Side Highway, south of Grottoes, was destroyed. No one was hurt. Firefighters say the fire might have started in the basement, but they have not officially determined the cause.
Property records show the house dates back to 1881, when it was originally built as the Harriston School.


text: Never have I closely watched stories of Gator basketball during the football horizon until now. I sat and I prayed daily for a young man I did not even know. I prayed because I realized the true struggles Chris Walker went through, so all I could do was hope for the best. Now the verdict, ineligible. Just before I let my basketball world crash down I read on to what espn had to say about the rest of the story. He will enroll and should be ready by December. Talk about a sigh of relief. I guess my prayers were answered. He will play, just not yet. I admire his loyalty to a guardian by going to a lesser school. I knew furthermore he was loyal because he could have skipped out and went pro after this decision but decided that he really wants to go to Florida. This is bigger than basketball here. I admire Coach D for not cheating like a certain Kentucky coach and doing this the right way. So congrats to my man Chris Walker. We will see the Skywalker catch lobs from Kasey Hill. Lets hope he continues to improve in the classroom and lets win a championship! Now back to football. LOL, ya thoughts Gator nation.

Posts tagged T. Babaton.
Neon Flare
Now, I'm not one to have a whole lot of colour in my wardrobe but I'm definitely trying to brighten it up. To be honest, I started "brightening" my wardrobe with white pants - it seems pretty simple but I was instantly addicted (I actually have two pairs of the exact same pants and they're my absolute favourite). I love coloured denim, which was the inspiration for this outfit. I picked out these neon pink True Religion jeggings - True Religion has amazing denim and I love the neon pink colour. I paired this Nanette Lepore First Dance Blazer, which has an amazing speckled paint-esque pattern, with a vibrant purple T.Babaton Second Skin Racerback Tank. The colour palette is so vibrant and perfect for the summer. I finished the look off with a nude wedge and a neon green 'The Fluoro' bag by The Cambridge Satchel Company. I love the added contrast and colour that the neon green adds to the outfit. A pop of colour is a must need in the closet for this summer!
Leather Luxury
I don't care what my boyfriend says - I mean, I truly do honour his opinion and take what he says to heart but sometimes, he just doesn't get my fashion sense - I love leather leggings. I always have loved leather leggings, especially Wilfred's High Waisted Leather Leggings. They're not something that can be pulled off with anything but I think they look best and the most casual with an oversized sweater. I don't mean big, baggy and ugly. I mean oversized in an attractive and fashionable way. Leather leggings can be pretty edgy and a sweater brings down the edge a bit. T.Babaton's colour blocked Kate Loose Knit Sweater pairs perfectly with the leather leggings. It's loose fit keeps it comfy and it drapes perfectly over the higher waistline. I kept this look simple with a pair of over-the-knee brown riding boots and a structured J.Crew purse that has the same colour tone as the T.Babaton sweater.

The city of Panama City is on the cusp of a $13 million project to revitalize the city's marina. One of the biggest pieces of the pie a controversial lighthouse that will be constructed on property. At Tuesday nights commission meeting, a big check was presented to help this cause.
The director of the Community Redevelopment Agency says now there is fifty thousand reasons to believe in the lighthouse project.
A check was presented from The Panama City Lighthouse Project, Inc. towards the construction of the lighthouse project to the city of Panama City totaling that exact amount.
Mrs. Pat Sabiston was there at the commission to do the honors. The marina project consists of a civic plaza and restructuring the sea wall and bulkhead of the marina.
Whitson says this project will be an integral part of the marinas success.
"It says we believe in this project and we believe in the future of downtown," said Whitson. "Our community is not going to stop until we are on top and this lighthouse is going to be a marquee.
"It's going to be a word class symbol of our progress and our pride and our maritime history."
The marina project had its groundbreaking late last month and city officials tell me the construction on the lighthouse may start as early as September.

And all I can say is I am so happy and glad that I did purchase this twin set CD/DVD from Linkin Park on tour during 2003 with Limp Biskit and Metalica. 'Live In Texas' actually Dallas is a work of art and for any hardcore fan of Linkin Park this is the Digi-pack for you!
The first CD comprises of 12 audio tracks drawn from Linkin Park's first two albums 'Hybrid Theory' and 'Meteora'. There are no new song releases on this CD just a remix of Pushing Me Away (Track 8). The hits of 'Somewhere I belong' and 'Crawling' and 'One Step Closer' are included on this audio CD.
CD 2 is actually the DVD of the actual concert and it is filmed expertly and gets the band action full on as well as the crowd moshing and jumping to the music. What an exhilarating feeling. All in all there are 18 songs in the concert with live powerful performances of 'Faint', 'By Myself', 'Numb' and 'In the End'.
A must for any new or old fan of Linkin Park. I thoroughly enjoyed this feast of viewing pleasure to the senses.

It started off as one step, followed by another and then another. These Jackson Public School students started their morning marching for a serious cause.
Lanier high school senior, Tianna Ware says, "we have to set the example for the younger kids after us, so they'll want to be motivated to be fit and stay healthy."
These young adults participated in the "March From Obesity." The 1.2 mile march kicked off at Veterans Memorial Stadium. The students hope every step they take encourages peers and adults to consider a healthier lifestyle.
"The whole country looks at us as the worst state and the fattest state, but its not about that it's about how we're changing," says Murrah high school senior, Chris Broadway.
The students completed their walk at the Jackson Medical Mall, where more than sixty vendors provided free health screenings and workshops to the public. Organizers of the event hope to help people catch silent health killers, many related to obesity.
"The heart diseases, the hypertension and the effects of it, so the screenings are actually going to entail cholesterol, diabetes screenings, the high blood pressure," says John Victorian, the executive director of the Community Outreach for Health Awareness (COHA).
Mississippi is ranked the number one obese state in the nation, and stats document that thirty percent of kids in the state are overweight. So health advocates hope marches and free health events motivate you to take control of your health.
Health experts say a simple walk can go along way when it comes to getting healthy, so they encourage you to take the first step to a healthier you.

The Ohio State University President E. Gordon Gee responds to Gov. Kasich�s State of the State address
Says approach to funding universities and colleges will set a new course for public higher education across the state
�The Governor�s address outlined a bold plan for continuing to move Ohio�s economy forward. While many states are reducing funding for colleges, Governor Kasich has shown he understands that higher education is the engine driving long-term economic development in this state. We welcome the governor�s support of higher education and echo his call to better prepare students for the future by tying state funding to degree completion. This enlightened approach to funding for Ohio�s universities and colleges will lead us to greater collaboration while setting a new course for public higher education across this great state.�

My Dying Bride - Turn Loose The Swans incomplete Guitar Pro tab
1 Attachment(s)
Guitar part completed, almost all drums are completed - only few bars in the ending are left. Only part of bass line is done, and there is no violin nor the synthesizer. Drums are done mostly by listening to the live version from "The Voice of the Wretched". There is no real violin in that live version. There are two positions in the song where long pauses are (one of them is the violin interlude) - proper length should be set. The tab was done two years ago, and I have no interest in such kind of music anymore and do not want to mess with it anymore, but, on the other hand, it would be great to see it finished.
I apologize if this should have been posted in the incomplete tabs thread, but I thought this is a bit different thing, since I am talking about a whole Guitar Pro file with more than one instrument track. But if I should have posted it in that thread, feel free to move it there or to tell me to move it there.
i just created account to say Thanks, because this GP tab is very rare, and i couldn't find it, except here, thanks again for the hard work.

For the fourth year a great pumpkin tree will rise over the Village Pointe Center Court in Omaha.
This month-long community event raises awareness for the children and teenagers in Nebraska's foster care system, 1,033 of whom are eligible and waiting to be adopted.
On Monday, volunteers from Kiewit will construct the framework for the 17-foot tree and guild volunteers will then "plant" 1,033 pumpkins on its "branches."
A full day of fun will take place on Saturday, October 27, and will give people a chance to learn about the desperate need for foster and adoptive families – especially those who can give a teenager a loving home.
From 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. on Saturday is the Free Family Festival.
The pumpkins will come down from the tree for carving. Then, Brite Ideas and CM's A Cut Above will stage the lights as they are returned to the tree. Meanwhile, children and families can enjoy a ghoulish hair design show, a pumpkin pie eating contest and other family-friendly fun.
Then at 7:00 p.m. the switch will be flipped on the pumpkin tree, and things will really light up.
The event is organized by members of the Forever Families Guild, which provides volunteer support to Children Services at Lutheran Family Services of Nebraska.
Lutheran Family Services of Nebraska is a statewide community-based organization which impacts over 35,000 individuals annually, from offices in 18 cities in the areas of behavioral health, children services and service to new communities.

Health Care Fraud: A $272 Billion Malady
Medicaid and Medicare disburse over $1 trillion in benefits per year, representing a massive portion of the $2.7 trillion that goes into healthcare-related spending in the U.S. each year. On top of that, the bureaucratic system that determines who receives those benefits (and how much) has grown increasingly complex over the years: next year, Medicare alone will have nearly 140,000 different codes doctors must choose from to describe their patients' injuries if they want to make a claim through that program. The massive amount of money in the system, combined with the complicated and often difficult-to-enforce regulatory checks in place, makes it a target for those looking to rip off taxpayers for their own monetary gain.
The estimated cost of healthcare fraud for taxpayers? $272 billion.
A recent article in The Economist makes note of some of the ways fraudsters can take advantage of the system, including overbilling for treatments and partnering with doctors and pharmacies to obtain, and then resell, prescription drugs for profit. Federal investigators report that incidences of healthcare fraud have increased by four times over the past five years. The problem takes significant resources to fight, but with fraud so rampant and lucrative, doing so can yield significant savings for taxpayers: the Department of Health and Human Services reported earlier this year that over the past three years, enforcement teams have recovered $8 for every $1 they spend to investigate fraud. Last year, the government recovered $4 billion, which is just a fraction of the total amount lost to fraud but represented a record-high success rate.
Still, the high cost of health care fraud illustrates the dangers that overly-complicated entitlement programs can pose to taxpayers -- they are easy targets for thieves looking to take advantage of a system that offers millions of transactions to hide behind every day.0 Comments | Post a Comment | Sign up for NTU Action Alerts

Latest Taxpayer's Tab: IRS Targets Old Debt
What if you received a notice from the IRS stating that your tax refund had been revoked because your parents owed the government money decades ago? That's exactly what's happening to some Americans thanks to a provision included in the 2008 Farm Bill. NTUF's Research and Outreach Manager Dan Barrett wrote about this troubling trend on the Government Bytes blog last week, and outlined an alternative the IRS should consider if it needs to collect more revenue: pursue the $3.3 billion in back taxes owed by government employees themselves.
NTUF also featured 3 recently-scored bills in this week's edition of The Taxpayer's Tab:

The Curious Case of Whistleblower Kevin Downing
Exposing wasteful spending is costly work and Kevin Downing, a former economist and data collector at the Department of Labor, is paying the price. In 1999 Mr. Downing raised a red flag over a project to re-organize the New York City Bureau of Labor Statistics office, including an expensive and superfluous complex in Mountainside New Jersey. Upon reporting what appeared to him as an obvious example of pork-barrel spending, Mr. Downing was immediately terminated from his position and his whistleblowing was made public knowledge on the Internet, resulting in damage to his career prospects. Employers continue to regularly cancel interviews.
On behalf of Mr. Downing, Representative Bill Pascrell, Jr. of the 8th District in New Jersey wrote a letter to the Department of Labor in hopes of highlighting his plight and protecting him from reprisals. Congressman Pascrell wrote:
"There is evidence to indicate that Mr. Downing's termination was inappropriate because it was in retaliation for his communication with Congressional staff regarding what he believed to be waste and abuse resent in the Bureau of Labor Statistics."
Incredibly, Pascrell's efforts were initially ignored and eventually dismissed by the Department of Labor entirely. Allegedly, the Labor Department managers used Kevin as an example to warn union officials and employees of inevitable retaliation against future whistleblowers.
Given the circumstances, Mr. Downing's job termination would at least raise some legitimate questions. Many in Congress would seem to agree as they recently passed the Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act (WPEA) to attempt to protect federal employees in situations similar to Downing's. Nonetheless, it was not passed in time to affect his specific case.
After over six years of costly legal battles, it was confirmed Kevin's termination was a direct result of whistleblowing but the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals rejected his case because Kevin "did not disclose non-frivolous information."
For Kevin Downing, the personal and financial consequences of exposing wasteful governmental spending have been devastating.
On the bright side, his case has brought more attention to the whistleblower issue. A Petition to re-instate Downing with all promotions, pay and benefits as well as payment of his legal expenses has been initiated on change.org for concerned taxpayers (including, of course, readers of this blog) who wish to express their solidarity.
If upstanding federal employees who risk their professional reputations to bring light to malfeasance are driven out of their positions without fair hearing or recourse, taxpayers stand to lose an important watchdog against waste – but worse, the growing mistrust in government would likely spread even further.1 Comments | Post a Comment | Sign up for NTU Action Alerts
Congressional Report Exposes "Operation Choke Point"
Last week, the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee released a scathing report that blew the lid off a little-known initiative of the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) informally known as "Operation Choke Point." In theory, the initiative purports to protect consumers from unscrupulous financial institutions. In practice, it inappropriately – and perhaps illegally – targets legal businesses that are viewed unfavorably by the Obama Administration. It has focused particular attention on the so-called payday lending industry, which it broadly labels as "a fraudulent 'scam.'"
While short-term lending receives the harshest treatment from Operation Choke Point, it is far from the only type of business affected. In order to hamstring payday lenders, the DOJ has pressured banks and other financial institutions to avoid interacting with these legal and legitimate establishments.
From the Committee's report:
In a statement to the House Committee on Financial Services, a trade group of licensed money service businesses and lenders submitted recent account termination letters in which the bank explicitly attributed the termination to Operation Choke Point.
Even worse, it appears that DOJ has dubious legal authority to implement the initiative. The Department states that the statutory justification for Operation Choke Point is established by Section 951 of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989. However, the Committee report notes that:
The intent of Section 951 was to give the Department the tools to pursue civil penalties against entities that commit fraud against banks, not private companies doing legal business. Documents produced to the Committee demonstrate the Department has radically and unjustifiably expanded its Section 951 authority.
In light of DOJ's aggressive and possibly illegal actions against legal businesses, the Committee is unequivocal in its rebuke of the initiative; concluding that "it is necessary to disavow and dismantle Operation Choke Point."
Needless to say, taxpayers should be very concerned about the use of public funds for this initiative.0 Comments | Post a Comment | Sign up for NTU Action Alerts
IRS Targets the Long Departed for Peanuts, Ignores the Living for Billions
If you didn't like the 2008 Farm Bill before, get ready for an IRS-sized dose of malarkey. The massive bill, officially enacted to support farmers but in reality does more to benefit the billion-dollar agribusiness industry, has paved the way for the IRS to come after your tax refund, even if you have good standing with Uncle Sam. According to the Washington Post, Congress' enacted Farm Bill repealed a statute of limitations on old debts owed to the feds. Historically, this statute prevented the Treasury Department from coming after debtors after ten years. Now, taxpayers across the country are seeing the effects and the government aims to get $1.1 billion.
The article mentions one woman who suddenly had no tax return because the IRS determined that her family was overpaid for her father's death benefits, which had been paid out since 1960. IRS officials are not sure specifically who was overpaid so they chose her to make up the difference. In all, the IRS has collected $424 million in "new" debt, i.e. debt that has only recently been available to collect in the wake of the statute's repeal. Yet, this new tactic is not limited to the IRS. The Social Security Administration is now working to get benefits from nearly 400,000 taxpayers, totaling some $714 million.
What does the IRS have to say? "... [W]e understand the importance of ensuring that debtors are treated fairly." Perhaps the agency should clarify what it means by "fairly" when many taxpayers have received no notice of the actions taken against them. The same woman mentioned above was apparently sent a notice from Social Security but to an address she had in the late 1970s. Generally, the IRS suggests that you keep tax documents for three years, so the accused are depending on the government to produce evidence from their records. It seems that Social Security's records are often incomplete, making it difficult to contest officials' claims.
So, to reiterate: a bill presumably designed to protect the agriculture industry included a new power enabling federal officials to take money from Americans who may have indirectly benefited from a payout beyond ten years ago; BUT, those officials don't really have the records to back up their claims.
There are a few takeaways from this:
What are the alternatives? Quite a few, but let's look at two. One would address the core problem and one would be a more fair way to get outstanding debt.
If Americans had a simpler tax system, one which didn't take 6.4 billion hours and $192.6 billion to comply with, some of these errors and inefficiencies would go away. Some proposals would try to cut down on the number of exemptions and deductions one can take, resulting in a more streamlined and less error-prone tax bill. Others take further steps to reform the entire system in the hopes of making tax preparations a mere inconvenience, instead of a heavy burden. NTU Foundation has examined some of these proposals, including the flat tax and the Fair Tax, many of which would reduce federal spending in addition to less time and money spent by taxpayers.
Another option is to change who the government goes after for outstanding debt. Instead of targeting debt that is decades old, IRS and Social Security investigators could shift their focus to those who are alive and kicking. One easy place to start is inside the government itself. According to a handy chart on Don't Mess With Taxes, the government could recover $3.3 billion in back taxes (that's 65 percent more than what is being collected in old debt AND it would be from the debtors themselves, not relatives who had no say in the matter).
If legislators should take just one lesson from all of this (and I know that's asking a lot), it is to write bills that are simple, succinct, and single-issue focused. Taxpayers are on the receiving end of these bloated Acts that put more complexity in the Tax Code. This is also not a wholly partisan issue. As Republicans rally against the Affordable Care Act and the Dodd-Frank Wall Street reforms, Democrats are pitching fits over the Farm Bill and Defense Authorization, all of which are putting taxpayers on the hook for more when they are in need of less.1 Comments | Post a Comment | Sign up for NTU Action Alerts
Latest Taxpayer's Tab: Police Force Expansion
In 1994, President Clinton pushed Congress to authorize $200 million in grants to help states hire 100,000 new police officers. While the total number of new hires fell well short of that, there's been new legislation introduced in Congress to reauthorize the program that administered the grants -- the Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) program.
Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) introduced S. 2254, the COPS Improvements Act of 2014, which would fund the program through 2019 at $649 million above current levels. The bill was introduced in an effort to provide "critical resources to local police departments," and is featured in this week's edition of The Taxpayer's Tab.

Nearly four and a half years after the devastating floods of 2008, there are still many areas of Cedar Rapids that have yet to recover.
Czech Village and New Bohemia were some of the hardest hit neighborhoods.
One group continues the painstaking work to bring that area back.
George Joens was born in raised in Cedar Rapids.
In the 1950s he bought a building in Czech Village.
As a business owner, he joined a group to help develop the neighborhood.
"There was myself and one other person who thought we should have a museum," said Joens. "Our first museum was on C Street. It was an old house."
Joens saw first hand how the floods of 2008 swamped his neighborhood.
"Everything was completely destroyed," said Joens.
Now the Czech Village New Bohemia Main Street District is looking to rebuild the neighborhood.
The organization was formed in 2009 with the goal of revitalizing the area of Cedar Rapids that was once known for arts art culture.
"We would like to bring in some more arts projects, public art, sculpture gardens, things like that," said Jennifer Pruden, Executive Director. "We want to make sure this continues as a vibrant, historic district."
But keeping the history alive has been a challenge for the group.
Early Friday morning a historic grocery store burned to the ground just days after the Cedar Rapids City Council decided to save it.
The fire was one of many in the area.
"It was really a devastating, heartbreaking blow for us," said Pruden. "It was such a key landmark, historic asset to the district."
After gathering public input, the district hopes to rebuild and fill the empty spaces.
Joens says these plans are just what he envisioned for the district.
"The progress that we're looking at on paper today is amazing and this is what we wanted to do way back when but just didn't have the ability to do it then," said Joens.
There will be another public forum January 12th.
That will be at the CSPS Hall's black box theater.

Demystifying Basic Electronics, Wednesday evening/0 Comments/in Join Us! /by nbezanson
Who wants more newbie classes? WE want more newbie classes!
This one's for anyone (member or not) who's not sure where to start when wires are involved. Starting from scratch, we'll talk about why and where electrical current flows, and then dive right into some hands-on experiments.
We'll play with batteries and resistors, learn the basics of Ohm's law, light some LEDs, and time permitting, probably play with some transistors too. There may be soldering. There may be long division. There may be small explosions and smoke. (That's what happens when you send way too much current through a component. Intentionally?)
What are you waiting for? Go reserve your seat!
Hands-On Basic Car Maintenance, 1pm Saturday/0 Comments/in Join Us! /by nbezanson

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) - Support and prayers from across the South Plains surround a former Texas Tech athlete and Anton High School stand-out, following a weekend motorcycle accident.
KCBD NewsChannel 11's Katie Bauer spoke with Blake Brazil's family on Tuesday afternoon where she got an update on his condition and their reaction of the community's outpouring of support.
Blake Brazil, 22, is still at University Medical Center in critical condition. He is surrounded by his family and friends, all praying for him to come out of this ok.
Early Saturday morning, Brazil lost control of his motorcycle in north Lubbock. His family tells us he suffered a traumatic brain injury and multiple broken bones. They say he is unconscious, but his vitals are good.
Brazil was a standout athlete for Anton High School and was part of the Texas Tech track team in 2007. "He was a quiet kid and is a quiet kid and just real focused on working on hard and doing what we've asked, tremendous character, you can tell a kid when he's got good character and so we really loved having him on our team," says Texas Tech track coach We Kittley.
Kittley says this is just another reminder of how precious life is. "On behalf on the men's and women's track team we have several on the team that were here when he was on our team and we just want him to know that we are praying for him and his family and for a full recovery and I hope for him to get back with us soon."
More than 400 people, so far, have joined a Facebook page dedicated to Brazil's recovery, and the dozens and dozens of comments of support does not surprise Coach Kittley one bit. "Oh not at all, he had a lot of friends on our team and I know he had a lot friends on campus so it's really neat to know that everyone is caring for him and cheering him on and hopefully going to get him well."
The Brazil family tells us they are extremely grateful to be receiving so much support and prayers. If you would like to leave a comment for Blake, the link has been provided.

PennDOT plans to continue work this weekend to improve Route 65 between Sewickley and the Beaver County line will continue this weekend, weather permitting.
Starting Friday, Sept. 14 through Monday, Sept. 17, Crews will be resurfacing Route 65 from Chestnut Street in to the Ambridge line.
Traffic will be reduced to a single lane in each direction from 8 p.m. on Friday continuously through 6 a.m. on Monday on Route 65, also known as Ohio River Boulevard.
Motorists should expect delays and allow extra time when traveling through the area.
The overall $5.1 million, 4.5 mile project on Route 65 includes milling and resurfacing, drainage, guide rail, curbing, signs, signals, structure repairs and other improvements in Emsworth, Sewickley, , and Ambridge. The prime contractor, Lindy Paving of New Castle, is expected to complete the overall work in spring 2013.

Students were evacuated from on Monday after water began leaking into the school's electrical room.
The school had about 15 leaks in the roof that were leaking most of the day, according to Assistant Superintendent Peter Gray. But the fire alarm was pulled and school was evacuated when students and staff detected an "electrical burning smell they couldn't ignore" close to the end of the school day.
The evacuation happened at about 2 p.m., just 20 minutes before school is typically dismissed. At first, the parking lot was being blocked, which caused traffic to backup on Bay Road.
Firefighters inside the school quickly redirected the water away from the electrical room.
"That was our main concern," Chief Phil Stevens said about the electrical room.
Besides that, water was "coming through in several different places," Stevens said in an interview in the school's lobby.
Gray said he expected the school to be open on Tuesday after the roof repairs were complete. Not long after the evacuation, workers from Carolla Roofing - the contractor that cleared the school roof of snow earlier this month - were on scene. Once the rain stops, the repairs will begin, Gray said.
Gray said as many as 300 leaks were discovered after snow removal work in early February. Because of the school closure during the removal process, students were in school Tuesday through Friday last week. If school hadn't been held last week, Monday would have been the first day back from February vacation.
"We spent last week scouring the roof for leaks," he said.
None of the leaks that continued on Monday were causing any structural damage to the school, Gray said.
It's yet to be determined how the leak repairs will be paid or how much it will be paid. The cost of last week's work, plus Monday's repairs, have yet to be tallied, Gray said.
"I'm waiting for the bills to come in," Gray said.
Students who were waiting for rides outside the school after the evacuation said they had seen leaks in several places in the school since the start of the day.
For example, water was coming through a sprinkler head and light in the high school lobby on Monday afternoon. After the evacuation, some students were being escorted back into the building by Principal Matt Fox and Assistant Principal Bryan Menegoni to retrieve their belongings.
Since the buses were delayed leaving the parking lot at the middle school and high school - Gray said he wasn't sure exactly what caused the delay - the elementary bus routes were also delayed by about a half hour.
