NASHVILLE - State Education Commissioner Kevin Huffman today said he has not moved too quickly on school reforms despite a letter signed by some 60 local school superintendents calling for his boss, Gov. Bill Haslam, and state lawmakers to rein him in.
Huffman said he has yet to see a letter that more than 60 of the state's 136 school directors or superintendents have written to Haslam.
The local school chiefs charge Huffman's office "has no interest in a dialogue" with them and that policies, rules and legislation have sapped their attempts to improve schools due to low morale.
Huffman said he does communicate with local school leaders.
"But," he said, "we have to ground ourselves again and again in the question of what's right for kids."
Asked if he is moving too fast in implementing changes, Huffman told two reporters "absolutely not. We are committed to doing whats right for kids and we're going to continue to be committed to doing whats right for kids. It's important we talk to people, it's important we listen to people, it's important that people have input.
"But," Huffman said, "at the end of the day we're going to make decisions that are in the best interests of children in Tennessee."
Huffman acknowledged reading it in news accounts. He said he has communicated with local school leaders.
Asked whether he feels he knows more about what students need than local education officials, Huffman, a former top official with the nonprofit group Teach For America who himself had three years of classroom experience, said "it's not a question of who knows more about what children need.
"It's a question of, in my perch, I'm responsible for ensuring that the education outcomes of 970,000 students in Tennessee get better. So we can either decided that we're going to stay in the bottom ten states in the country in educational outcomes or we can decide that we're going to do the same things that will make Tennessee be a competitive state when it comes to educational results."
He said he speaks with the Tennessee Organization of School Superintendents "all the time," and just did so at their meeting in Gatlinburg.
"I'm going to continue to do that, but it doesn't mean that people are going to agree with me all the time."
Asked whether he believes he still enjoys the confidence of Haslam, who personally recruited him to be education commissioner, Huffman said "absolutely."

WEDNESDAY, Dec. 18, 2013 (HealthDay News) -- Despite some concerns to the contrary, children whose moms used antidepressants during pregnancy do not appear to be at increased risk of autism, a large new Danish study suggests.
The results, published Dec. 19 in the New England Journal of Medicine, offer some reassurance, experts said.
There have been some hints that antidepressants called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) could be linked to autism. SSRIs are the "first-line" drug against depression, and include medications such as fluoxetine (Prozac), sertraline (Zoloft), citalopram (Celexa) and paroxetine (Paxil).
In one recent U.S. study, mothers' SSRI use during pregnancy was tied to a twofold increase in the odds that her child would have autism. A Swedish study saw a similar pattern, though the risk linked to the drugs was smaller.
But both studies included only small numbers of children who had autism and were exposed to antidepressants in the womb.
The new study is "the largest to date" to look at the issue, using records for more than 600,000 children born in Denmark, said lead researcher Anders Hviid, of the Statens Serum Institute in Copenhagen.
And overall, his team found, there was no clear link between SSRI use during pregnancy and children's autism risk.
Hviid cautioned that the finding is still based on a small number of children who had autism and prenatal exposure to an SSRI -- 52, to be exact. The researchers noted that it's not possible to rule out a small increase in autism risk.
But, Hviid said, "at this point, I do not think this potential association should feature prominently when evaluating the risks and benefits of SSRI use in pregnancy."
Commenting on the findings, Christina Chambers, director of the Center for the Promotion of Maternal Health and Infant Development at the University of California, San Diego, stated, "I think this study is reassuring."
One "important" point, Chambers added, is that the researchers factored in mothers' mental health diagnoses -- which ranged from depression to eating disorders to schizophrenia.
"How much of the risk is related to the medication, and how much is related to the underlying condition?" Chambers said. "It's hard to tease out."
In theory, she noted, depression or other mental health disorders could contribute to autism risk because those moms may be more likely to make unhealthy lifestyle choices, such as smoking or drinking.
In this study, Hviid's team did initially see a slightly increased risk of autism among children whose mothers used SSRIs during pregnancy. But once the researchers factored in the psychiatric disorders themselves, that statistical link fell away.
On top of that, there was a slight increase in autism risk among children whose mothers had used an SSRI in the two years before pregnancy, but not during pregnancy.
Hviid said that all suggests it's the underlying conditions, rather than the drugs, that are associated with a small autism risk -- though the reasons, he added, are unknown.
The study, which was funded by the Danish government, is based on records from Denmark's national system of health databases. Of nearly 627,000 children born between 1996 and 2005, just under 3,900 were later diagnosed with autism.
Among those children, 52 were born to mothers who filled an SSRI prescription during pregnancy. There were just over 6,000 other children whose mothers used the antidepressants during pregnancy but did not develop autism.
Both Hviid and Chambers said the findings do not prove that SSRIs carry no autism risk. And a connection is biologically plausible, Hviid said.
No one knows what causes autism, which affects an estimated one in 88 children. But it involves a disruption in fetal brain development. It's thought that serotonin -- the chemical that SSRIs target -- contributes to early brain development, and in animals, altered serotonin levels can affect brain function and behavior.
"It's still worthwhile to continue to study this," Chambers said.
But, she added, based on the human studies so far, "if there is any increased risk of autism, it appears small."
And for any one woman, Chambers said, that possible risk would have to be balanced against the risks of leaving major depression untreated.
"For some women, the optimal situation may be to take an SSRI, even if there is an association [with autism]," Chambers said.
Hviid agreed, saying that's a decision that has to be left up to women and their health care provider.

CTI partners with industry experts and cannabis organizations to develop compelling and relevant education tracks. Our cannabis courses are hosted securely on Adobe Connect, which allows learning content to be shared easily in a self-designed, self-paced education track. In cooperation with Americans for Safe Access, Cannabis Training InstituteTM co-produces the ASA-CTI Core Cannabis Training curriculum, with an optional testing component for full ASA-CTI Certification. We are actively forging alliances with other leading cannabis educators and organizations, so please check back often as we add new courses and new options for continuing education and cannabis industry certification.
Cannabis education tracks
Cannabis Training InstituteTM provides curriculum-based educational opportunities, as well as smaller course bundles organized by topic. CTI offers four cannabis education tracks:
- The Business of Cannabis: The Business of Cannabis track is designed to meet the needs of entrepreneurs and investors in a world where state laws are often ambiguous and federal conflict remains. The courses will provide insights on the cannabis-specific challenges and recommendations surrounding planning, forecasting and marketing in both the retail and cultivation trades. While we will be adding monthly to our courses, you can expect a robust curriculum complemented with certification by summer of 2014.
- Advanced Cannabis Education: This track is being designed for professionals looking to broaden their knowledge base to include cannabis. The first training modules for advanced learners are now available for those in the medical field. The modules cover the endocannabinoid system, how cannabis acts as a medicine, and what one should consider when recommending cannabis as part of a patient's treatment plan. A separate training module for accountants and attorneys will cover Internal Revenue Code Sec. 280E and its impacts on cannabis businesses.
- Cannabis Industry Certification: Cannabis Training InstituteTM was created in large part to meet the urgent need for cannabis industry training and certification. CTI works with leading cannabis organizations to provide patients and workers with a strong knowledge base. Completion of state-specific training modules may be required to comply with local regulations.
- Cannabis Law and Politics: While the end of cannabis prohibition in the United States is growing closer, it took decades of political and legal struggles to reach this point. Understanding how cannabis policy is shaped by advocacy, politics, court rulings and government has never been more important. Cannabis laws are complex and evolving, covering everything from employment and parental rights to taxes and dispensary permits. Whether you want to change the world or simply develop support with your city council, CTI is there for you in the beginning and along the way on your journey through the exciting world of cannabis law and politics.
Cannabis education courses
In our Business of Cannabis education track, you will soon find courses targeted to investors and entrepreneurs as well as course modules where you will learn how to grow cannabis, process cannabis, test cannabis, open a collective or dispensary, run a dispensary and ship and store cannabis. Making cannabis concentrates, edibles, topicals, and tinctures will also be among CTI's offerings.
CTI is also committed to industry certification and is proud to offer ASA-CTI Core Cannabis Training, which updates and expands cannabis education materials developed by the Americans for Safe Access Foundation. The Core Training curriculum is a required component for ASA-CTI Certification. CTI is also working with other content providers to create state-specific workforce certification programs.
The following continuing education opportunities are also currently under development: continuing health education, continuing legal education (CLE), continuing professional education (CPE) and continuing education for law enforcement.
In our cannabis law and politics track, CTI plans to release courses on updated cannabis laws, cannabis and government, legalization, cannabis and law enforcement, media relations, and cannabis politics.
Finally, you can look forward to courses on medical cannabis, non-medical cannabis, and speaking to children about marijuana among others.

MEMS-Based ultrasonic Atomizer for measles vaccine delivery
M. Meacham, H. Noh PhD, F. L. Degertekin PhD, and A. G. Fedorov
PhD – G. W. Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering, The
Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, GAP.
Rota PhD and M. Papania MD MPH – Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention, Atlanta, GA
A comprehensive review of measles vaccination delivery methods indicates that aerosol inhalation exhibits the greatest potential of nonpercutaneous routes (Cutts et al., Biologicals, 25:323-338, 1997). In fact, this method has been shown to generate serological responses that exceed those achieved by injection. Typical nebulizers used for inhalation are not well suited to widespread vaccination programs in undeveloped regions due to lack of portability, and other common aerosol delivery devices, e.g., pressurized Metered Dose Inhalers (pMDI), are unable to produce the monodisperse droplets necessary for effective aerosol inhalation. In this study we demonstrate the unique capabilities of a micromachined (MEMS) ultrasonic atomizer as a new, promising technology for aerosol delivery of the measles vaccine that overcomes the shortcomings of current devices. The micromachined atomizer (Fig. 1a) we recently developed (Meacham et al., Rev. Sci. Inst., 75(5): 1347-1352, 2004) utilizes cavity resonances in the 1 – 5 MHz range along with the acoustic wave focusing properties of a liquid horn to generate a jet of droplets. When the piezoelectric transducer is driven at the resonant frequency of the fluid chamber, a standing acoustic wave develops with the peak pressure gradient occurring near the tip of the nozzle. We use micro-fabrication technology to produce the atomizer: anisotropic KOH-wet etching is used to establish the pyramidal horns along the crystallographic planes of a single-crystal silicon wafer, and the nozzle orifice is opened using inductively coupled plasma (ICP) etching. For effective aerosolized vaccine delivery, the target droplet generation rate is 0.15 cm3 during a 30 s run with half of the ejected volume in the 1– 5 µm range. The ultrasonic atomizer we developed is capable of meeting this requirement by operating at a frequency of ~1MHz using 100, 5 µm nozzles arranged in a 10x10 array. We used a Phase Doppler Particle Analyzer (PDPA) to find that ejection from 4 µm orifices results in almost monodisperse 5 µm droplets. Virus viability following ejection from an array of 8µm orifices was analyzed by comparing the potency of ejected virus to two control samples. As shown in Fig. 1b, the control samples CVC1 and CVC2 exhibit a potency of 103.4 plaque forming units (pfu) per dose. The potency of the ejected virus was approximately 103 pfu as long as the ejection temperature did not exceed 50°C. These results unambiguously indicate that the MEMS ultrasonic atomizer we developed is capable of delivering aerosolized measles vaccine, while meeting the most stringent requirements on delivery efficacy (droplet size, distribution, and volume) as well as virus viability.

Chuck Hagel piles on the NFL
CNN reports that Chuck Hagel has asked his staff for detailed information about the U.S. military's relationships with the National Football League in the wake of the controversy over how the league is handling domestic-abuse allegations against players. With the U.S. supposedly ramping for a war against ISIS, you would think that Hagel has better things to worry about. But politically correct posturing is always a priority for Team Obama. »

Hagel's Bergdahl dialectic
Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel appeared before the House Armed Services Committee this week to testify on the deal that resulted in the release of the Taliban Five in exchange for Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl. Steve Hayes reviews Hagel's testimony in the Weekly Standard article "More unraveling." Steve points out that Hagel retreated from previously asserted reasons advanced to support the deal. Hagel presents as a walking case of dialectical argument »
Hagel's phenomenology of negotiation
Secretary of Defense Hagel appeared on Meet the Press from Afghanistan this morning for an interview by MTP host David Gregory. The nullity involved in pairing a member of Obama's Team of Nitwits with Gregory for an interview is chilling. Gregory asked Hagel if the swap of five Taliban detainees held at Guantanamo for Army Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl represented negotiation with terrorists. Hagel responded (the transcription here is mine): "We »
Chuck Hagel witnesses a familiar act
Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon has walked back his harsh statements about the Obama administration's foreign policy. Ya'alon had declared that Israel cannot rely on the U.S. to thwart Iran's nuclear program, accused the administration of broadcasting weakness throughout the world, and warned that its perceived weakness was inviting further terrorism against U.S. targets. Ya'alon told his U.S. counterpart Chuck Hagel that his comments "were not intended to express opposition, »
Whatever happened to Chuck Hagel?
Earlier this year, John Kerry and Chuck Hagel took over the top jobs at the Department of State and the Department of Defense, respectively. Since then, Kerry has been hyper-active. But whatever happened to Hagel? He has impinged on our consciousness only once, as Kerry's sidekick during congressional hearings on authorizing an attack on Syria. The impingement was slight. Kerry and Gen. Dempsey did almost all of the talking. Hagel »
Say what, Chuck?
Chuck Hagel said today that the United States doesn't need permission from the United Nations or any other international body to strike Syria in response to its use of chemical weapons against civilians. I agree with Hagel, though I don't quite follow his reasoning. Reportedly, Hagel explained: "No nation, no group of nations is bound by only one dimension of whether they'd make a decision to respond to any self-defense »
The wit and wisdom of Chuck Hagel, an update
I wrote here about an incident that occurred when Secretary of Defense Hagel spoke at the University of Nebraska. After his prepared remarks, when calling on a questioner, Hagel said, "you're not a member of the Taliban, are you?" Robin Gandhi, an assistant professor who is of Indian national origin, then asked a question. Hagel's camp claims, however, that Prof. Gandhi was not the target of the Secretary's Taliban joke. »
The wit and wisdom of Chuck Hagel
Chuck Hagel returned to his alma mater, the University of Nebraska, to deliver a speech on the challenges facing the Defense Department (excluding the challenge posed by the fact that he's in charge of it). After his address, it was time for questions. Hagel called on an audience member with brown skin. Before fielding his question, Hagel joked "you're not a member of the Taliban, are you?" The questioner turned »
Chuck Hagel's charm offensive
The Washington Post reports that Secretary of Defense Hagel is taking his "charm offensive" to Israel. At first blush, this seems like a difficult task. Most of the few people Hagel has ever been able to charm (the Steve Clemons' of the world and, to be fair, apparently Barack Obama) seem to have been won over in part by his anti-Israel barbs. But we shouldn't forget about handwritten thank-you notes. »
Chuck Hagel — the idiocy continues
Chuck Hagel's testimony during his Senate confirmation hearing consisted of one misadventure after another. For example, he described the Iranian regime as "legitmate" and characterized American's policy toward Iran as "containment." In both cases, he likely was reflecting the real view and actual policy of the Obama administration. But he wasn't supposed to let the cat out of the bag. He thus embarrassed both Team Obama and himself. One might »
Were McCain's votes on Hagel coherent?
Andy McCarthy asks two good questions about the Republican "folderoo" on Chuck Hagel: I have a question for Senator John McCain, leader of the pack that says Hagel is "not qualified" to be defense secretary but that nonetheless voted in a way that assured his confirmation. McCain opposes the sequester because, he argues, the cuts to the defense budget are "unconscionable." So . . . how can it be unconscionable »
Hagel's confirmation; the Republican scorecard, with particular attention to Rand Paul
As expected, the Senate has confirmed Chuck Hagel as Secretary of Defense. The confirmation occurred through two votes. First, the Senate voted by 71-27 in favor of cloture. This ended "debate" and meant that Hagel would get an "up-or-down" vote. In that vote, Hagel was confirmed by a margin of 58-41. 18 Republican Senators voted to end cloture. They are: Alexander (Tenn.), Ayotte (N.H), Blunt (Mo.), Burr (N.C.), Chambliss (Ga.), »
Chuck Hagel, a Secretary of Defense Louis Farrakhan can love
Louis Farrakhan, the rabidly anti-Israel, anti-Semitic leader of the Nation of Islam, is full of praise for Chuck Hagel. Farrakhan delivered his praise yesterday during a speech in Chicago. According to Betsy Woodruff at NRO, Farrakhan began by arguing that the media is controlled by Jewish interests. He then praised Hagel for, among other things, standing up to the "Jewish lobby." And he complained that Hagel is "in trouble" as »
Lindsey Graham postures on Hagel nomination
Sen. Lindsey Graham has written a letter to his former colleague Chuck Hagel asking that Hagel open his Senate archive at the University of Nebraska-Omaha and that he authorize the release of past speeches organized by the Washington Speakers Bureau. Graham notes that the Washington Speakers Bureau is refusing to transfer to the Senate any video recordings of Hagel's past speeches because Hagel apparently hasn't authoritzed this. In addition, the »

Ireland coach Declan Kidney is reeling from the news that Paul O'Connell is out for the Six Nations as he awaits surgery on a back injury.
But captain Brian O'Driscoll and full-back Rob Kearney should be back in time for the season opener against Wales in February.
Munster coach Rob Penney has confirmed that O'Connell will undergo an operation to cure his back injury.
The Reds captain is now struggling to make the Lions tour to Australia in the summer after battling the injury since March.
Penney revealed: "Paul will have the operation and I think it's a really massive step forward, because the uncertainty for Paul has been, obviously, a frustration.
"He's been beavering away with a whole lot of medical support. It's been what they would term a conservative management of his injury and they've come to the conclusion that the time is now to get on the front foot and be more aggressive with treatment.
"The good thing is there is light at the end of the tunnel for the guy.
"Whatever happens let's just hope he's got full use of his faculties and everything he possesses so he'll live a normal healthy life. The rugby stuff is secondary."
O'Driscoll is now favorite to take over from O'Connell as captain of the Lions for the summer tour to Australia.
The Ireland skipper is back in training with Leinster after ankle surgery and could feature in Friday night's Celtic League clash with Edinburgh.
Rob Kearney and Luke Fitzgerald could also feature in that game as they step up their recovery programmes after recent injuries.

text: On April 15, 2002, at 1202 central daylight time, an Air Tractor AT-502 agricultural airplane, N91905, was substantially damaged during a forced landing following a loss of engine power near Lamesa, Texas. The airplane was registered to a private individual who was doing business as Hogg Flying Service of Lamesa, Texas. The commercial pilot, sole occupant of the airplane, sustained minor injuries. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed, and a flight plan was not filed for the 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 137 aerial application flight. The local flight originated from the Lamesa Municipal Airport, Lamesa, Texas, at 1155.According to the 22,894-hour pilot, the airplane departed from runway 16 with a load of granular fertilizer. The pilot reported that after a "normal" takeoff he reduced the throttle to cruise power and the "engine started losing power." A forced landing was executed to a soft field 1.5 miles from the departure runway, during which the airplane nosed over and came to rest inverted.The FAA inspector, who examined the airplane at the accident site, reported that both wings sustained structural damage and the engine was displaced from the engine firewall. According to a representative from Pratt & Whitney (P&W) who examined the airplane, two propeller blades were curled, one propeller blade was bent aft, and the propeller spinner remained attached. The high pressure fuel filter bowl was removed and "large amounts of very fine sand/dirt [were found] between the pleats" of the fuel filter. The engine was removed from the aircraft and transported to P&W in Addison, Texas, for examination. The engine was examined at P&W under supervision of the NTSB Investigator-In-Charge. The P3 air filter was removed and dirt contamination was present in the wire screen; however, there was no water present. The low pressure fuel pump was removed and its filter was contaminated with water and dirt. The fuel line between the fuel control unit (FCU) and the oil/fuel heat exchanger contained water contamination. The 14 fuel nozzles were removed and flow checked. One nozzle met the manufacturer's specifications, one nozzle was completely obstructed, and the remaining 12 nozzles displayed "varying degrees of streaking." The high pressure fuel pump and FCU were removed as one assembly and sent to the P&W facility in Canada for further examination. The low pressure fuel pump was removed and sent to S&T Accessories, Inc., in New Braunfels, Texas, for further testing. The turbine section was boroscoped and the blades for the second stage turbine were intact. Furthermore, the blade tips and their respective shrouds did not display rub marks or scoring.

Reproductive health and rights were once again the subject of extensive debate in state capitols in 2012. Over the course of the year, 42 states and the District of Columbia enacted 122 provisions related to reproductive health and rights. One-third of these new provisions, 43 in 19 states, sought to restrict access to abortion services.
When your citizens vote pro-woman, it must be time to cut the family planning money.
New Hampshire does not want to repeal its marriage law, Nebraska may increase family planning funding, the elimination of Title X, young moms need career support, and Republican use of abortion as political manipulation.
The on again, off again family planning funding in New Jersey appears to once more be off again thanks to a governor's veto.

|White Wine
|Marsanne, Viognier
|Australia » South Australia
The Viognier throws the first punch in this wonderfully aromatic wine with its heavenly lift of candied ginger and crunchy, yet sweet white nectarine. A deeper look unveils the more complex Marsanne notes of green papaya and pistachio.
An abundance of stone fruits hold sway over the sumptuous attack and mid palate. The finish is surprisingly savoury. The Marsanne's nuttiness is quite persistent and coupled with a delicate hint of sea spray.
The complete package of stone fruits and spice with a long savoury finish makes this wine the perfect dinner party starter.
Wine Spectator
Tight, spicy and appealing, with pear and lychee flavors, well-modulated to fly smoothly on the medium-weight frame. Shows impressive persistence on the finish. Drink now. 6,500 cases imported.Score: 89. —Harvey Steiman, June 15, 2014.

Tuneful Purist Stuff from the Clayton Brothers
The Clayton Brothers always deliver, pure and simple: they're kind of like the Adderleys for this decade. You always know they're going to swing the changes like crazy, the soloing is always focused and emotionally impactful and at the end of the show or the album, you'll feel something. The first impression that a listener is left with after hearing their new album The Gathering is that it's a concert recording. Which it's actually not, but it has that kind of energy. This time out their usual lineup – Jeff Clayton on alto sax and alto flute, brother John Clayton on bass, Terrell Stafford on trumpet and flugelhorn, Jeff's son Gerald on piano and Obed Calvaire on drums – gets a little bolstering from guests Wycliffe Gordon on trombone and Stefon Harris on vibraphone.
The eagle flies on Friday, and that's the vibe they leap into with John Clayton's high-energy, unstoppably swinging opening track, Friday Struttin' ,with hard-hitting solos all around until Gordon adds a tinge of levity, Stafford putting it back on the fast track with his trademark spirals and trills. Tsunami, a tune by Jeff, reaches toward a towering, majestic feel driven by sax and trumpet, the rhythm digging in deeper as it crescendos.
The tensely nebulous Touch the Fog, another tune by John, is a movie theme waiting to happen with a tersely catchy, central bass hook, lush horns and some nice interplay between the piano and vibraphone. By contrast, Jefff's This Ain't Nothing but a Party works a good-time New Orleans theme with grittily bluesy piano and a trick ending.
John's Stefon Fetchit [ouch] swings hard, Harris choosing his spots judiciously. They do Don't Explain casually and expansively, solo piano building artfully to a starlit glimmer, then pulling it back into the shadows where the bass bows rather ominously. Then they flip the script with the buffoonish Coupe de Cone, a springboard for Gordon to do his shtick.
Gerald's ballad Somealways is the most modern thing here, bracing and modally-charged, edgy piano versus balmy horn chart, Calvaire driving a nimbly scrambling return to the starting line. Jeff felt that his alto work on the first take of Benny Carter's Souvenir was too effusive, but the band insisted they keep it, and it's a good thing because he pours his soul out, but not melodramatically: this stuff is real.
John's Blues Gathering is classic postbop, bass pulling the piano back into terse moodiness on the heels of yet another comical Gordon solo. Jeff's Simple Pleasures is vastly less simple than the title implies, its heavy, humid mid-August ambience slowly lifting as Harris gets underway and then lets it linger suspensefully again. The album closes with another first-rate Jeff tune, The Happiest of Times, its Monk allusions and nonchalant swing lit up by casually expert, pulse-elevating solos by Stafford, Gerald and then the composer. This might be the band's best studio effort to date, pretty impressive considering the all-star cast involved.

How to Remove Delta Search Completely ( Perfect Guide)
This how to guide describes about how to remove delta search and other related ad ware programs from your computer.
Delta search is the search spider which is gather information from popular search engines like Google and Bing. It is also popular website in the internet with alexa rank 42. So the statistics are great but the main problem is with their toolbar. Because it make changes to your all pc browsers by changing the home page to their website and replace the integrated search engine with their delta search. This would be an irritating thing. Actually delta search toolbar is not a virus but it make some changes to our browser with our permission.
So here I share how to remove delta search completely without leaving any traces.
What is the origin of delta search toolbar?
I didn't install delta search blindly in my pc never before but I've seen it on my friends computers so many times and thought about that where it comes from.
I've found the origin of this delta search toolbar in the internet within 2 minutes. Yes it's completely our fault because we search for every software on Google and most of the download go for first link. Obviously its an ad.
Here the problem comes, If you click on that link you will redirect into that ad page and click on the download link. It downloads the software and it is less than 1 MB. So its not the correct software, it binds with some adware like delta search, Babylon search toolbar etc.
How to Remove Delta Search completely from your pc?
Actually its not a matter to remove the delta search toolbar and its 2 or 3 minutes process. If you thought about what we install on pc our problem will be smash that on the initial stage. Yes before proceeding on every installation just make sure to uncheck unwanted programs.
For testing purpose I download some adware programs and fully spoil my computer with those programs. So now I want to share the process on how to remove delta search toolbar and other toolbars.
1. First Go to control panel on your pc and open "add or remove programs" in windows xp, programs and features on windows 7 / windows 8.
2. Now search for delta toolbar and other adware which you not aware of installation.
3. Select delta toolbar and delta chrome toolbar and click on uninstall button. Some of the other toolbars doesn't allow to uninstall from pc then you need to use some powerful uninstaller like revo uninstaller.
4. After removing all toolbars from control panel you need to do some changes on your browser. Because the real effected programs are browsers.
How to Remove Delta Search Toolbar from Google Chrome?
Now the real game begins.You only remove the programs from your pc but the traces of that programs are still in your all pc browsers. Check out this article to remove them from browsers.Actually they made few important changes to your browser like homepage changing,extension installation and new tab setting etc.
1. First open your chrome browser and go to the settings menu.Delta toolbar mainly changes three settings in the chrome browser.They are Change start up page,change appearance of browser and change the default search engine.
2. Now we need to clean those things. First go to "on startup" setting and click on "set pages" option. On the next box remove the delta search address and click on ok button
3. Now go to the appearance settings and click on "change" button to remove the delta search.
4. After that go to search settings and change delta search to Google search.
5. Now go to extensions field and delete extensions related to delta search toolbar and other adware.
How to Remove the Traces of Delta search Toolbar?
We remove the delta toolbar extensions and some other settings but still it is in our browser. So we need to remove it completely using adwcleaner. Yes it is the perfect tool to remove all traces on all browsers within in a minute.
1. Download the adwclenaer from the following link and it is a click on run tool.So there is no need to install it on your pc.
2. Now just click on scan button to start the scanning process.
3. It takes 1 minute time to search all files which are related to search toolbar and show files in the software.
4. Now click on clean button to clean all delta toolbar files. After cleaning it asks to reboot pc. Just click on ok button to restart the pc.
5. After restarting pc it opens one text file with the reports created by adwcleaner.
That's it. Now open any browser there is no traces available related to delta toolbar. Please use this software after uninstalling delta toolbar on control panel otherwise it cannot be removed completely.
There is another method available to remove delta toolbar that is done by using toolbarcleaner but it doesn't remove all traces effectively. So doesn't mention that method here.
If you always use your browser in private mode then there is no problem with any toolbars and extensions. Because by default no toolbar cannot be installed on your browser.
I hope you understand the article about how to remove delta search toolbar completely from your pc.

Osama bin Laden's personal files are helping officials understand more about how al-Qaida operates. (AP File Photo)
published Wednesday, June 8th, 2011
WASHINGTON — The U.S. is tracking possible new terror targets and stepping up surveillance of operatives previously considered minor al-Qaida figures after digging through the mountain of correspondence seized from Osama bin Laden's hideout, officials say. The trove of material is filling in blanks on how al-Qaida operatives work, think and fit in the organization, they say.

LEE COUNTY, Fla.- The Lee County Sheriffs Office continues to investigate a burglary at the Lakes Regional Library on Bass Road and Gladiolus Drive in Fort Myers.
The library was closed Tuesday while forensics teams gather evidence.
Staff tells WINK News the library's cleaning crew made the discovery around 6:30 in the morning when opening up after the holiday weekend.
"It was obvious that things had been gone through," said Marilyn Graham, with the county library system. "There were drawers open and so forth."
At first glance, it was apparent a flat-screen TV was stolen, but the sheriff's office is still surveying the full scope of the burglary.

The class isn't that good and Idzik definitely deserves a bulk of the responsibility for that. Winters is garbage at LG, Geno has shown very little, and Milliner has been brutal. Fullbacks don't matter. Sheldon is a star though... He is worth being excited about.
But when REx is gone, those 3 defensive linemen's performance will probably fall off a bit.
He really has no shame at all.. No problem publicly embarrassing himself
I understand the hate about this, but remember he also said that Geno had a brutal practice.
And to be honest, I don't know who has had a good rookie year this year outside of the Jets. Bernard, Alonso, and that's it really.
You are so blinded that you don't see the difference. They are losing games b.c they lost their QB and their offense is bad. NOT b.c they ignored their offense for years and left it devoid of talent. Tanny, Rex and the bunch CONSCIOUSLY constructed this offense.
And you are correct on the cap situation.
In the end, the hugest cost is by the fans watching the season.
Don't forget, we really wanted Austin this year, but the Bills blocked that pick by trading with the Rams
So I don't think we wouldn't take the right WR if available.

Proceedings of the 6th IEEE International Workshop on Visualizing Software for Understanding and Analysis, IEEE Computer Society, pp. 54-61, 2011.
Reengineering complex software systems represents a non-trivial process. As a fundamental technique in software engineering, reengineering includes (a) reverse engineering the as-is system design, (b) identifying a set of transformations to the design, and (c) applying these transformations. While methods a) and c) are widely supported by existing tools, identifying possible transformations to improve architectural quality is not well supported and, therefore, becomes increasingly complex in aged and large software systems. In this paper we present a novel visual analysis and design tool to support software architects during reengineering tasks in identifying a given software's design and in visually planning quality-improving changes to its design. The tool eases estimating effort and change impact of a planned reengineering. A prototype implementation shows the proposed technique's feasibility. Three case studies conducted on industrial software systems demonstrate usage and scalability of our approach.

BACKGROUND: In usual eye surgery, stitches are traditionally sewn in to hold new tissue in place. Surgeons do their stitching through a microscope.
The stitches can distort eye tissue and vision can be bent and distorted. In other words, the stitches interfere with the quality of vision.
When taken out, the stitches can cause scarring that permanently distorts. Previous glues that were used in eye surgery were similar to plastics that did not allow nutrients to flow through the transplanted tissue, so it would subsequently die.
NEW PROCEDURE: Eye glue was originally developed to seal leaking blood vessels that were sewn together in surgery. In use in eye surgery, it glues tissue to tissue.
The glue is a mixture of fibrin and other substances that keep it from quickly dissolving. Fibrin is a natural human protein that causes blood to clot. When mixed with substances that keep it from dissolving too quickly, it becomes sticky like jelly. The glue is squirted underneath new tissue and holds the tissue in place.
Louisiana State University Medical School Professor of Ophthalmology Herbert Kaufman, M.D., says, "But it does more than hold it on. It lets the necessary substances, the food the tissue needs, pass back and forth and fluids pass back and forth. Finally it disappears after the body has done its healing part. So the glue is almost ideal in holding the tissue together and letting the tissue metabolize and eat properly because fluids are exchanged and then goes away."
OTHER USES: Dr. Kaufman says the glue can be used any time tissue needs to adhere to tissue, for instance in skin grafts for burn victims. It can also be used for other eye surgeries such as cornea replacement, glaucoma, and cataract removal.
"I think adhesives will revolutionize not only eye surgery but other kinds of surgery," said Dr. Kauffman.
DRAWBACKS: Doctors are unsure how long the adhesion lasts and how much "pulling" glued tissues can take. The glue dries within a minute so preciseness is essential.
COST: Dr. Kaufman says the glue costs more than stitches, but he adds, "I think this adhesive is just the beginning of adhesives and glues that will be better."

Many have something to be thankful for on the "Day of Thanks."
One Heartland family cherished the time they have together by volunteering and helping Omaha's homeless.
At the Siena Francis House, Thanksgiving wouldn't appear to be the easiest holiday to celebrate, if not for people like Deb Kelly and her family who stepped up to help the poor and homeless.
In lieu of a gift exchange, the group decided to buy "hundreds" of pairs of long underwear for winter, candy, and personal items to donate to the shelter. "We all have had so many opportunities, if we can create an opportunity for someone else today," Kelly said.
The decision for them to help was one made three years ago when Kelly and her mother were diagnosed with breast cancer. "They always say to whom much is given, much is expected. We are not all born equal when it comes to opportunity, in life. We have had opportunity," Kelly said.
So, the family discovered a new opportunity. There were 30 family members helping out Thanksgiving Day. Some were giving away clothes and others were serving a meal. They all said it was part of giving back on Thanksgiving.
"We just like to give thanks, we are grateful for what we have, just giving to others now," Tayler Kelly said.
"It's good to help and if there is a need we are willing to help fill that spot and take care of others, because we've definitely been helped out for sure," Alex Dostal said.
"Really, if you can touch one person or help one person, you know it is Thanksgiving and it's the spirit of the season, it makes it all worth it, it is so worth it," Mendy Erickson said.
Worth it because while the time we have together is limited, the reach of our giving is not.
The family also donated toys to 70 children at the Stephen Center.

Martyn Cleaver: Tour of the Baltic on a Triumph Speedmaster July 2005
The initial trip plan was to go to the FIM rally in Tartu, Estonia, but after researching the event agenda & costs, we decided why not go the whole nine yards and do a complete tour of the Baltic.
So on Monday the 11th of July, 5 people (including my 17 year old son riding pillion with me) set off on 3 motorcycles and a trike on Monday 11th July from Maidstone to catch our 08.15 ferry from Dover to Dunkerque.
As I had covered all the planning and research for the trip, it was left for me to lead and navigate! Volunteers would have been nice, but that's group politics for you!! When I did eventually get someone else to lead, he got lost getting out of the Motel car park!
The first 2 days through Europe were fairly uneventful but very hot. Then we crossed the border into Poland. I swear I will never ever complain about the state of the roads or other drivers in the UK again, after negotiating the cobbles, pot holes and suicidal Polish drivers. On a two lane road on a brow of a hill or on a blind bend with double white lines you are confronted with a forty foot lorry or a car overtaking coming straight at you! - two choices: do I stand my ground and possibly hit them or do I ride towards the ditch! Err tough decision! I think the ditch looks favourable, must remember to avoid the roadside vendors selling honey!
We eventually arrived in Gdansk in one piece and after a slight detour, found the campsite in Stogi, near the beach as recommended by the Rough Guide. The campsite turned out to be a forest in the sand with just enough space in between most trees to pitch a tent. A two up fully loaded Speedmaster does not like sand! For one horrible moment, I thought I would have to dig the bike out, but thanks to the low down torque the bike has, I managed to ride it out with the back end sliding madly with sand flying everywhere. That night, I think everyone was hot and bothered and some were even thinking of not completing the whole trip.
The next day we got on a tram and went into Gdansk and spent a relaxing day seeing the sites including the shipyards and the Gdansk old town.
Friday saw an earlier start, with everyone being packed and rolling by 09.30 as we wanted to visit the Stutthof Museum in Sztutowo just outside Gdansk on-route to Elk in the lakes. We arrived just after opening in bright sunshine, parked the bikes, paid our money and entered. Words can not express the emotions that I felt after going around the camp! I had to sit down next to my bike for twenty minutes before I could continue. I will never understand as long as I live, how human beings that are capable of such great things, can be so barbaric and inhumane to their fellow man.
We left the camp around midday and rode to a campsite in the Lakes near Elk. Here once again, group politics reared its head and it seemed that not everyone wanted the same thing and some were finding the distances too much and were not enjoying the trip.
The following day we de-camped and within half an hour it started to rain heavily, so on with the wet weather gear and try to avoid the pot holes that were now filled with water! Once we crossed over the border into Lithuania we stopped at the first roadside café, where we saw first hand the shady side of the former communist countries. Two guys came out of the café and went over to an old red Skoda, took out 3 large packs the size of a duty free cigarette pack wrapped them in black backs with duct tape and then proceeded to lie down on the floor and tape them to the inside of the rear bumper!
That evening we stopped at a petrol station in Kelme, Lithuania which had rooms & a restaurant. The Manager let us put the bikes in his workshop overnight for safety. At £5 per person per night, that's great value in my book.
Whilst sitting eating our evening meal two S class Mercedes with blacked out windows pulled up and out came two burley guys draped in gold jewellery whilst along the road an old horse drawn cart, with the whole family aboard trundled up the road. The contrasts were so wide, one minute you are watching people milk cows by hand in the fields and the next you are overtaken by a by a blacked out Hummer!
The next day after cake and coffee for breakfast, we set off for the "Hill of Crosses" one of the places listed in the Rough Guide as "to see" Well we saw it! and I still didn't get it.! Maybe coming over the brow of a hill on one of the main Lithuanian E roads and being confronted by a women in a wheel chair doing a three point turn in my lane was another sign I still didn't get.
We crossed the border into Latvia and arrived in Riga the capital by mid afternoon, where we booked into an old Russian style Hotel with secure parking. After sorting our kit and rooms out, mine had no windows! Which is a strange experience on its own; we got on a bus into down town Riga.
Riga is beautiful, with a mixture of the old and new married together and so are the women! The national pastime for them seems to be getting dressed up to impress and then walking up and down the main streets. There was also a free open air folk concert playing in one of the main squares.
Navigating out of Riga the next morning was interesting as there are no roads signs!
By mid afternoon we were only 100 kilometres from Tallinn and at a roadside café with bear skins hanging from the wall, I decided that I didn't want to go straight to Tallinn, but wanted to go off towards the Estonian Islands. Some of the others wanted to go to Tallinn and get a ferry to Rostock in Germany and miss out Sweden. As I had arranged to meet the Bonneville America guys, my son and I took the road to Haapsalu on our own.
We found a great campsite owned by a chap from Finland and for the first time on the trip, I felt at peace with myself and my surroundings.
When you travel in a large group you don't tend to inter-react with the locals, but when you are on your own you have too, to me that it what travelling is all about.
The next day we rode into the town to find an ATM and get a coffee and met another father and son from Sweden on their bikes going to the FIM rally, so we chatted admired each others bike for half an hour or so.
I dropped my son back off at the campsite and went exploring the town and Baltic coast line for a couple of hours on my own. In the evening I emailed Bengt in Sweden to let him know what time we should be arriving on Thursday in Stockholm.
Wednesday saw us on the road to Tallinn with torrential rain that felt like someone was sticking needles in your legs even with leathers and a waterproof over-suit.
Once again the road signs were non existent; the first sign for the ferry was 500 metres from the port! While we were waiting for our ferry there were hundreds of bikes coming off the ferries heading for Tartu. A German couple riding a Harley & a custom Yamaha were wearing Triumph one piece waterproofs the same colour as my Speedmaster! I did try and swap my black waterproofs for theirs but they wouldn't have it!
After a sixteen hour sea crossing we arrived in Stockholm where Bengt was waiting on his Triumph America in the rain to take us down to Vätterbygdens MC-klubb biker campsite in Jonkoping to meet up with Johann another Triumph America owner. Both of these guys came away from their family vacation to meet us! - You meet some of the nicest people on a Triumph, they were top guys.
Sweden is beautiful and the roads are a bikers dream, I am going back with my wife for two weeks next year.
We said goodbye to Johann at the Elk Museum and rode across the spectacular bridges into Denmark and stopped in Nyborg by the sea.
The plan on Saturday was to find a Motel or Hotel in Holland or Belgium & get an earlier crossing back to Dover on Sunday. As it turned out we couldn't find one that had any vacancies!! Could it have been the leathers & the bike?? So we rode on to Dunkerque, arriving at 01.55. Nearly 700 miles and sixteen hours of riding and she never missed a beat and my backside was fine! - Thanks Triumph for a great touring seat.
We caught the 07.30 ferry from Dunkerque and arrived back in Dover at 09.00 to yes you got rain! Half an hour later we pulled into my garage with 3251 miles on the clock.
P.S it took me 3 days to get the bike as clean as when I left!

Indiana rolls as Illini drop sixth in a row 56-46
BY STEVE GREENBERG Staff Reporter January 26, 2014 4:10PM

Updated: January 26, 2014 4:14PM
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — It's not that Illinois played poorly. This team can't shoot, so all the misses from near and far were to be expected. No doubt, the Illini competed hard at Indiana.
On a different day, in a different year, it might've been good enough to get a victory.
Not this season, though.
Not this hard-luck bunch.
Indiana's star players didn't really show up for this one, but it didn't hurt the Hoosiers. Illinois had no-show performances of its own, plus an apparent injury to junior point guard Tracy Abrams. The Illini were beaten for the sixth game in a row, 56-46.
About that six-game losing streak: It's the longest for an Illini team since the great collapse of 2012, when Bruce Weber's final ride ended in abject disaster. That team went from 15-3 to out of the postseason — no NCAA Tournament, no NIT, no nothing — losing 12 of its last 14 Big Ten games. Bye-bye, Bruce.
Not even that team lost seven in a row, though. That hasn't happened to an Illinois team in 15 years, since Lon Kruger's lone losing season as coach.
Saturday in Champaign against Iowa, current coach John Groce will be looking dead in the face at ol' No. 7.
On a day when the Illini shot just 33.3 percent from the field, at least guard Rayvonte Rice got going again. He was 7-for-11 and scored 20 points.
IU's Yogi Ferrell and Noah Vonleh combined for just four first-half points, but the Hoosiers led 26-24 at the break anyway. Ferrell finished with 17, several coming late on free throws.
The Illini's last lead came on a three-pointer by Jon Ekey that made the score 29-28. The Hoosiers answered with a 12-point run.
Illinois dropped to 13-8 overall and 2-6 in Big Ten play.

WAR/PHOTOGRAPHY: Images of Armed Conflict and Its Aftermath will open at the Annenberg Space for Photography on March 23, 2013 and run through June 2, 2013. This exhibition has been organized by The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.
WAR/PHOTOGRAPHY encompasses over 150 images going as far back as 1887 through present-day and is arranged by themes presenting both the military and civilian point of view including the advent of war, daily routines, the fight itself, the aftermath, medical care, prisoners of war, refugees, executions, memorials, remembrance and more.
The exhibit includes the work of award-winning portrait photographers and photojournalists, military photographers, amateurs and artists including iconic images such as Joe Rosenthal's Old Glory Goes Up on Mount Suribachi, Iwo Jima and Alfred Eisenstaedt's V-J Day, Times Square, New York. Recognizable from news coverage is Eddie Adams' image of the execution of a Viet Cong prisoner on the streets of Saigon.
Specific to the Los Angeles exhibit will be the Annenberg Space for Photography's original short documentary film, titled The War Photographers, and an digital image presentation produced by Arclight Productions. Both the documentary and digital gallery will feature over 500 photographs exclusive to the Photography Space from six acclaimed contemporary conflict photographers: Alexandra Avakian, Carolyn Cole, Ashley Gilbertson, Edouard H.R. Glück, David Hume Kennerly and Joao Silva.
In interviews in the film, these six photographers share their experiences, including life-threatening situations faced by their subjects and themselves. Photographer Joao Silva revisits sites in his native South Africa, recalling the violence that led up to that country's first democratic election in 1994. Ashley Gilbertson is filmed in Midland, Texas, on the final shoot for his book, Bedrooms of the Fallen, which examines the bedrooms of young soldiers who never returned home from war.
WAR/PHOTOGRAPHY arrives in Los Angeles from The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston on March 23, 2013 before it travels to the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C., and the Brooklyn Museum.
Please note that some of the photographs in this exhibit may not be suitable for all visitors.
Photojournalist Alexandra Avakian has been published in National Geographic, Time, LIFE, The New York Times Magazine and more. Her photographic and written memoir, Windows of the Soul: My Journeys in the Muslim World, was published by the National Geographic Society and was named as one of American Photo's year-end best.
Carolyn Cole is a multiple award-winning photographer and a staff photographer for the Los Angeles Times. She has covered conflicts in Iraq, Kosovo, Afghanistan, Haiti and Liberia, where she earned the Pulitzer Prize for her coverage of the siege of Monrovia.
Ashley Gilbertson is a recipient of the National Magazine Award for Bedrooms of the Fallen and the Overseas Press Club's Robert Capa Gold Medal for his work in Fallujah, Iraq. Gilbertson's first book, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, chronicles his arrival on the eve of the United States' invasion of Iraq as a 25-year-old photojournalist.
American photojournalist Edouard H.R. Glück began his photographic career as an American soldier in the Iraq War. His work has been published in the International Herald Tribune, the Wall Street Journal, GQ, the Guardian, Newsweek and Time. He is a contributor to the Associated Press and Bloomberg.
David Hume Kennerly won a Pulitzer Prize for his coverage of the Vietnam War. He has been shooting on the front lines of history for more than 45 years and has photographed 8 wars, as many U.S. presidents, served as Chief White House photographer for President Gerald R. Ford and was named "One of the 100 Most Important People in Photography" by American Photo.
Award-winning photographer João Silva co-authored The Bang-Bang Club: Snapshots from a Hidden War, a factual account of news photographers in South Africa who covered the end of apartheid. Silva was severely wounded in October of 2010 after stepping on a land mine while on assignment for The New York Times in Afghanistan, sustaining life-threatening injuries and losing both legs.

If you believe that it is your right to decide what food to feed yourself and your family, you will be interested in the latest legal battle brewing between an Oregon raw milk farmer and the state Department of Agriculture.
In Oregon, sales of raw milk from small farms directly to consumers are legal, but advertising that such milk is available is not.
This means that Christine Anderson, who owns a small farm in Oregon, is unable to post fliers at health food stores, get a booth at a local fair or even post a sign about her raw milk dairy on her own land.
Even a price list available on her web site received a complaint, and she was forced to take it down.
The advertising ban makes it virtually impossible for a small milk farmer to stay in business, and certainly to flourish, which is why Anderson is now suing the Oregon Department of Agriculture and asking that the ban be declared a violation of free speech rights.
Decades-Long Advertising Ban Being Challenged
Retail raw milk sales have been banned in Oregon since 1999. However, the state has an exemption for small farms with up to three cows, nine sheep, and nine goats to sell raw milk on their farms.
The catch, of course, is that they're not allowed to advertise, and if they do, they could be punished with a year in jail, more than $6,000 in fines and up to $10,000 in civil penalties.
