Macungie Animal Hospital has just been named The 2013 American Animal Hospital Association - Accredited Practice of the Year!
So, this morning, the hospital's owner, Dr. Nancy Soares, shared her expertise and highlighted the questions every pet owner should ask before choosing a vet.
She sat down with WFMZ's Eve Tannery to talk about some of the things many people don't think to ask that could make a big difference in terms of care.

D.A.S. AUDIO DEPLOYED AT CHINAâS DONGPO THEATER
Hangzhou, China â August 2011⦠Being one of the most important tourist cities in China, Hangzhou is famous for its natural scenery and its West Lake. This thriving city is also home to the Dongpo Theater, the flagship theatre of Gold Coast Culture Development Ltd., better known as the Gold Coast Company. As one of the top entertainment theatres in China, the Dongpo Theatre offers two performances nightly year âround: Night of West Lake for the tourists and the Gold Coast Entertainment Show for local citizens. Sound quality is a major consideration for all who perform at the Dongpo Theatre, which is considered a cultural and entertainment landmark. This is precisely why a new sound reinforcement system drawn from the catalog of Valencia, Spain âbased D.A.S. Audio was recently placed into service.
Ms. Jie Han, Gold Coast Companyâs Project Manager, discussed the significance of the companyâs efforts and the reasoning that led to deployment of the new D.A.S. Audio sound system. âAs the largest theatre chain in China,â? Ms. Han explained, âthe Gold Coast Company operates over 50 theatre productions at its 14 theatres across China. The Gold Coast Entertainment Show is the most famous brand among Gold Coast Companyâs offerings and the production is presented year âround in each of the companyâs theatres. With a total audience volume of over 5 million people per year, this is a very important entertainment property, so it is crucial that our audiences be treated to the very best sound.â?
With this objective in mind, Hangzhou Chuangda Stage Facilities, the authorized D.A.S. Audio dealer in Zhejiang Province, was contracted to design and install the theatreâs new sound system. With logistical assistance from D.A.S. Audioâs Hong Kong office, the Dongpo Theatreâs new sound system was designed to include loudspeakers from the Aero Series 2 and Artec product groups.
The house mains consist of 16 D.A.S. Audio Aero 12A powered, 2-way, mid-high line array elementsâflown 8 cabinets per side. An additional 4 Aero 12A loudspeakers are used for front fill. For low frequency support, 4 D.A.S. LX-218A powered subwoofersâeach with two 18-inch transducersâare ground stacked, two cabinets per side in a left-right configuration. Twelve D.A.S. Audio Artec 28 2-way enclosures are provided for surround fills throughout the theatre. A D.A.S. Audio DSP-4080 4 In / 8 Out signal processor handles loudspeaker management responsibilities.
Eduardo Lopez, D.A.S. Audio Hong Kongâs Operations Manager, commented on the recent installation, âThe Performance Theatre industry in China is very active and relevant, and for D.A.S. Audio to establish a collaboration with one of the leading companies in this sector is a milestone achievement for our speaker systems in this kind of application. Our active, compact line arrays, which are easy to install and set up, do not detract from the grand appearance of the stage, yet they provide outstanding audio performance and represent a good option for this type of venue. The diversity of performances and music played in this theatre match perfectly well with the variety of applications our line arrays are designed to support, so I am confident there is a good future for D.A.S. Audio.â?
Installation of the Dongpo Theatreâs new sound system was completed this past June and, since that time, Gold Coast Company management reports they are very pleased with the results. âD.A.S. Audio is a company that exhibits professionalism, honesty, and integrity,â? notes Ms. Han. âWe appreciate their enthusiastic service and support and, of course, the high quality sound of the companyâs loudspeakers. I sincerely hope Gold Coast and D.A.S. Audio will establish a reliable partnership and, together, further develop the Chinese entertainment market.â?

TUESDAY, Dec. 17, 2013 (HealthDay News) -- Typical, nonsurgical treatment of gum disease in people with type 2 diabetes will not improve their blood-sugar control, a new study suggests.
There's long been a connection between gum disease and wider health issues, and experts say a prior study had offered some evidence that treatment of gum disease might enhance blood-sugar control in patients with diabetes.
Nearly half of Americans over age 30 are believed to have gum disease, and people with diabetes are at greater risk for the problem, the researchers said. Well-controlled diabetes is associated with less severe gum disease and a lower risk for progression of gum disease, according to background information in the study.
But would an easing of gum disease help control patients' diabetes? To find out, the researchers, led by Steven Engebretson of New York University, tracked outcomes for more than 500 diabetes patients with gum disease who were divided into two groups.
One group's gum disease was treated using scaling, root planing and an oral rinse, followed by further gum disease treatment after three and six months. The other group received no treatment for their gum disease.
Scaling and root planing involves scraping away the tartar from above and below the gum line, and smoothing out rough spots on the tooth's root, where germs can collect, according to the U.S. National Institutes of Health.
After six months, people in the treatment group showed improvement in their gum disease. There was no difference, however, in blood-sugar control between the two groups, according to the findings, which were published in the Dec. 18 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association.
These findings do not support the use of nonsurgical gum disease treatment to improve blood-sugar control in people with diabetes, the researchers said.
Experts said the finding was in line with what is known on the subject.
"The results don't surprise me," said Dr. Gerald Bernstein, director of the Diabetes Education Program at Beth Israel Medical Center in New York City. "[Gum disease] requires physical intervention to remove offending plaques and microinfection that does not easily clear with brushing and rinsing."
What is really important is how inflammation linked to gum disease is related to wider cardiac inflammation, Bernstein said. That relationship might influence the rate at which artery-hardening plaques are deposited in blood vessels.
Dr. Spyros Mezitis, an endocrinologist at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City, said it's well known that gum disease is "associated with worsening of [blood-sugar] control in diabetics."
But the current study suggests that "[gum] treatment improves the common disease and preserves teeth but should not be used to control diabetes," he said.
"Larger studies are needed to confirm these findings," Mezitis added.
More information
The U.S. National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research has more about gum disease's causes, symptoms and treatments.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"Most good deals you come across have a catch. Well this one is no different... The catch with Wedding Paper Divas, is great customer service accompanies a quality product. Yes, this is a rare catch, but it's true and feels good to know it exists! After publishing our final design, their design team came back with suggestions for improvements, after going back and forth 3 times we have a finished product that we're more than pleased to send to those we care about the most. Highly recommend working with them!"
"I loved how the magnets looked! They were a good size and were good quality magnets! I really liked the design, I thought it was simple but very unique. The only thing I would've done differently was to have called customer service and ask them to make the date larger than the original design, and perhaps in a bold font. Shipping was really fast as well, I ordered these together with wedding invite samples on a Monday and both arrived on the Friday that same week!"
"WPD were so helpful! I ordered these then realized a picture was missing, called them and they fixed it while I was on the phone with them! I ordered mine in the fonts recommended and love it! I chose a custom color instead of the traditional black. My wedding colors are turquoise and coral, so I picked Bay and love it! The only thing I wish I would have ordered is stamps because postcard stamps at the post office are very limited as far as designs."
"I absolutely loved my save the date magnets. Wedding paper divas had amazing service and my magnets shipped very quickly. The magnets I ordered were a little small however the overall product was beautiful and I loved them. I would suggest this to anyone. I will definitely be buying another product from wedding paper divas."
"This Save the Date is absolute perfection. I have received many, many compliments on it. We used a colorful picture that popped with the black chalkboard effect on the top of the front of the card. On the back, customer service was very efficient in adding a text box to my specifications on the back. I requested a white box with serif font similar to the front with the gold "glitter" background. This way, I was able to add information similar to the postcards, but still use an envelope."

I think data science and machine learning (I know they are not the same thing) are going to be a very big part of tech innovation in the coming years. And I also know that putting powerful tools in the hands of "everyman" produces more innovation than can happen when the tools are limited to mathematicians and scientists.

I made this blouse using Burda pattern 123 from 01/2011. I really like using stretch fabric because the fitting process is easier and you don't have to add zipper or buttons.
Stretch lace.

Governor C Vidyasagar Rao directed the government to withdraw the notification exempting the ACB from provisions of the Right to Information (RTI) Act on Thursday , the last day of President's rule in the state. An official attached to the Raj Bhavan said a notification withdrawing President's rule will be issued on Friday , coinciding with Devendra Fadnavis taking over as the state's first BJP chief minister. The decision to exclude the ACB from the RTI Act was taken by the Con gress-NCP government led by Prithviraj Chavan on September 6, 2014.
"The governor has taken the decision to withdraw the notification after considering representations from various RTI activists and after taking cognizance of newspaper reports which reflected the view that the notification was in violation of the RTI Act," said a press release issued by the Raj Bhavan. Interestingly , organisations such as the Intelligence Bureau (IB), CBI, and CID do not come under the purview of RTI. Several RTI activists had written to the governor, calling the order illegal. After Thursday's order, Rao received gushing praise. "My salute to the governor! I think he and his advisors have shown extraordinary wisdom," said former central information commissioner and RTI activist Shailesh Gandhi.
Activists Jitendra Ghadge, Ketan Tirodkar and Chetan Kothari were also happy with the order. Activist Anil Galgali pointed out that the earlier government's order was perhaps intended to keep under wraps information on the many corruption cases filed against Congress and NCP leaders.

Super Summer Intensive, for the Serious!
Original post made by Caryn Coleman, Castro City, on Mar 16, 2010
This local gem -- right on the corner of San Antonio and el Camino by Peets -- just announced its summer intensive program for serious ballet students. My little ones are yet old enough for the intensive program but are working their little hearts out in the studio's pre-Ballet program. I cannot say enough fine things about the artistry and discipline of Inna Bayer's little (and growing!) studio. I hope they stay in the area!

There's something refreshingly unassuming about Devin Copeland's chosen stage name, Devin the Dude. The same thing can be said for his music: Devin's songs aren't filled with tales of hardcore violence and obscene wealth — he's more likely to rap (or sing) about running out of weed or chasing women. His reputation as an everyman rapper — and a couple of high-profile features, including "Fuck You" from Dr. Dre's The Chronic 2001 — has earned him a niche following in hip-hop over the last decade or so. But even Devin's filthiest punch lines are pulled off with a certain charm, as his often comical lyrics tend to complement his easygoing delivery and Texas drawl.

Apple patents 4th-gen iPod, Newsstand
Apple was awarded two design patents on Tuesday for the fourth-generation iPod and Newsstand app icon. Released in July 2004, the fourth-generation iPod features the Click Wheel, and introduced the photo and iPod color models. Apple Senior Vice President of Industrial Design Jony Ive is credited as an inventor of the design.
The Newsstand app icon, which launched in June 2011 with iOS 5, features a skeuomorphic bookshelf design. Elizabeth Caroline Cranfill is the only credited designer of the icon. [via Apple Insider]

I'm sure receiving the patent in 2013 for a device that hasn't been manufactured since 2005 and who's only direct descendant doesn't even get mentioned in any Apple PR is going to be of great use to them :D
And good luck defending the patent for the newsstand app's icon for what, in essence, is a glorified RSS reader, and looks like a traditional newsstand. When companies receive patents like this, I have to wonder if maybe some daily drug and alcohol testing isn't in order at the patent office: "Yeah, we have an app that aggregates all of a person's digital periodical subscriptions into one place, a digital newsstand if you, and we'd like a patent on the app's icon, it's, wait for it… a NEWSSTAND!!!" "Oh, sure, that's definitely original, approved"
I'm just going to assume the patent clerk had no idea what skeuomorphic meant and decided they must be missing something in the application beyond the "innovation" of icon badges that looked like magazines and newspapers.

Future of Nursing Initiative
FRIDAY, March 18 (HealthDay News) -- Treatment of severe malaria with artesunate is superior to quinine for both adults and children, according to a review published in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews.
David Sinclair, B.M.B.Ch., from the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine in the United Kingdom, and colleagues compared artesunate with quinine for the treatment of severe malaria. Literature searches identified eight randomized controlled trials comparing intravenous, intramuscular, or rectal artesunate treatment with intravenous or intramuscular quinine in 1,664 adults and 5,765 children who were unable to take oral medications. The primary outcome measured was all-cause death.
The investigators found that artesunate treatment significantly reduced the risk of mortality for adults and children (relative risks, 0.61 and 0.76, respectively). An increase in the incidence of neurological sequelae was seen in children treated with artesunate, but the majority were transient, and there was no significant difference at follow-up 28 days later.
"There is now adequate evidence to be confident of the results in both adults and children," the authors write. "Intravenous artesunate should be the treatment of choice for adults and children presenting with severe malaria in any geographical region."

1 in 5 CT Screenings for Lung Cancer Results in Overdiagnosis
"Some of these individuals would never have known they had lung cancer, and never would have been treated for lung cancer… and would have died from other causes rather than from this disease," says one researcher.
Nearly one in five patients with a history of cigarette smoking who are diagnosed with lung cancer with recommended CT screening don't have a clinically significant disease and are overdiagnosed, but scientists don't yet have any way of knowing which ones.
"There's just no way to know that right now, but it is what we're working on," says Edward Patz, Jr. MD, lead author of a study in Monday's JAMA Internal Medicine and a professor of pathology and radiology at Duke University Medical Center. "But there are lots of groups working on biomarkers to find ways of making this distinction."
"What we're saying is that in the absence of screening, some of these individuals would never have known they had lung cancer, and never would have been treated for lung cancer, and never would have been labeled for lung cancer, and would have died from other causes rather than from this disease."

NEED HELP CHOOSING A SIZE? See measurements & fit info for this garment in the Size & Fit dropdown!
This is just a beautiful skirt, I love how it fit me perfect.
This skirt is definitely true to picture. However, I do wish the elastic was a little tighter. I feel like the waste band for the small was closer to a medium. Good quality, and I like that the skirt isn't that sheer so you don't really notice where the lining starts and stops.
PRODUCT MEASUREMENTS: Compare these measurements to your own body measurements. We measure each item "relaxed" on a flat surface, not stretched on a person's body. It is helpful to consider the material of the item, as some stretchy materials may give an inch or two.
Because sizing and cut will vary between brands, please use this information as a general guide. Use our Size Chart to help determine your size. If you are between sizes or need help finding the proper size, please Chat with a Stylist.

text: The Quentin Quire wiki last edited by CruxFornax on 10/30/14 08:05AM View full history OriginQuentin in classQuentin Quire joined the student body of the Xavier Institute after Professor X's return from averting a war with Genosha and the rebuilding of the X-Mansion. He immediately stood out as a brilliant intellect and quickly became Xavier's prize pupil, though the extent and type of his mutant abilities were never clearly definedQuentin kept a piece of newspaper with him from the day he was born. It was the cover of an issue of the Daily Bugle which was put out at a time when mutants had just begun to be noticed in society. The main artwork on the page was a picture of a mutant with a whip that had rather distinctive clothing and hairstyle. The image represented the fear that humans felt towards mutants at the time.As is sometimes the case with extremely bright, promising youth, Quentin was not socially adept, and resented it. He had feelings for the Stepford Cuckoos Sophie, but the Cukoos found him to be disturbing. He only had one classmate that he would hang out with, Glob Herman, which didn't help his social status. He found one of his tormentors, Slick, to be particularly irritating because Slick's ultra-cool image was a charade generated by his power to generate illusions.CreationQuentin Quire was created by Grant Morrison and artist Keron Grant.Character EvolutionQuentin Quire has been a constant nuisance to the X-Men since his debut at the riot. After his release from prison at the onset of Schism, Wolverine felt responsible to take Quentin into his care/imprisonment at the new Jean Grey School. While attending, albeit reluctantly, he has begun to engage with the other students, Idie Okwono in particular.Major Story ArcsRiot at Xavier'sRiot!Quentin began to fall into a downward spiral around the time of the death of famed mutant fashion designer Jumbo Carnation. He had recently received a phone call from his mother informing him that he was actually adopted. This news brought up questions about his very identity. Quentin lashed out at Slick one of his main tormentors, revealing Slick's true appearance in front of the student body, in particular his girlfriend Longstrike. Quentin began to use the mutant enhancing drug Kick, and his brain began to work overtime burning sugar as fuel. He visited the site of Jumbo's murder and decided to get his hair cut in the same manner as the mutant in the artist's depiction on his newspaper cover. He returned to the mansion also wearing clothing designed by the late Jumbo Carnation. With the X-Mansion's public open house coming up Quentin wished to make a confrontational statement about how far mutants have come by embracing stereotypical images generated by fearful humans.Omega GangWith his identity coming into question, Quentin had attached himself to Jumbo's death. Quentin's brain function had also increased dramatically. As Emma Frost put it, Quentin's brain was processing over 10,000 brilliant ideas per second. Quentin would have a public confrontation with Professor Xavier during their telepathy class. He openly challenged Xavier's ideals of tolerance in favor of a much more radical view of human mutant relations, desiring not to live in a world side-by-side with Jumbo's human killers. This display impressed several other students who began to follow Quentin's line of thinking. With Glob Herman still by his side fellow students Tattoo, Phaser, and Skybolt adopted the same clothing as Quentin forming the Omega Gang. Now all five were abusing Kick, and ventured outside of the mansion that night. In a back-alley they found a group of humans who they savagely beat, killing some.Xavier and the rest of the school faculty knew that Quentin was becoming dangerous, subtly influencing those around him with his telepathy, but they were unable to come to agreement on how to resolve the situation. Quentin led the Omega Gang in a raid of a U-Men hide-out, killing all they found inside. When the group returned to the mansion they ambushed Xavier in his office, knocking him out with a baseball bat. The following day was to be the day of the open house.When Xavier became conscious again he was wearing a mask similar in design to the helmet Magneto wore. As Magneto's helmet disallowed telepathy from getting into his brain, this helmet prevented Xavier's telepathy from reaching anyone else. As the open house was beginning Quentin announced that they were holding Xavier hostage and began a riot at the school. Quentin influenced the student population of the school into demonstrating which evolved into a full fledged riot when the X-Men approached to calm the situation. In order to stop Quentin, Sophie took a does of Kick and using the power of Cerebro the five Cuckoos enhanced their already great power level to take down Quentin. Quentin was left beaten and humbled, and the strain of the incident had killed Sophie.Quentin was taken into Beast's lab. Quentin's neurons were continuing to accelerate the rate at which they were firing until, one-by-one, they were turning into faster-than-light energy and disappearing. Beast could only hypothesize that the stimulation by Kick had triggered a secondary mutation within Quentin. Xorn was brought in to heal him, but what was happening could not be stopped. Xorn helped ease Quentin into a different state of being, killing his body. Just before Xorn committed euthanasia Quentin asked Xavier what would happen if he was wrong, and the enemy was among them. He could have been referring to Xorn at the time, who was lated forced by Sublime to duplicate Magneto. It is possible that Xorn knew that Quentin had figured it out at the time, and killed him to keep it a secret.Phoenix: EndsongKid PhoenixHis body was destroyed, and his mind was kept in a semi conscious form in Beast's lab, where it was eventually brought back to full consciousness and then given a body by the Phoenix Force returning to earth. He then attempted to resurrect his lost love, Sophie. Unfortunately Quentin was only able to use his telekinesis to reconstruct her body, he did not possess the ability to bring her back from the dead. With the help of the phoenix force however she was returned to life. This did not last more than a second though as Sophie was apparently disgusted and chose to remain dead. Whether she was still disgusted by him, or repulsed by the actions he had committed, remains a mystery.Nation XBeast brings Quentin's container to his lab on Utopia after the X-Mansion is abandoned. Finding life on a higher plane to be "boring," Quentin revives himself and decides to become a Villain and secretly destroy Utopia, claiming that the X-Men stole his idea to create a mutant nation. He elects to make his endeavor a game and selects Martha to be his arch-nemesis and gives her seven and a half minutes to stop him. Martha attempts to alert the X-Men and locate Quentin, but he manages to intercept and taunt her at each attempt, ultimately smashing her container and leaving her to die. Martha realizes that Quentin has infiltrated Cerebra to destroy the island and attempted to take revenge on the Cuckoos by putting them in a mental loop. Martha manages to break the Cuckoos free, who quickly defeat him.SchismDuring the recent x-event in which cyclops and wolverine's disagreements come to a head and wolverine leaves to establish his own school, the new black king of the Hellfire Club Kade Kilgore released Kid Omega from containment. He decides to celebrate his freedom by breaking in to an international arms conference that Cyclops happens to be speaking. While inside Kid makes some of the world's top leaders reveal there deepest darkest secrets, all live on camera. Now listed as the worlds most dangerous mutant, he seeks refuge on Utopia. Even though Wolverine advised handing him over to Captain America, Cyclops decides that Kid Omega shall be put back in containment, and given to authorities in order to be tried by a jury. However, Wolverine decides to take a reluctant Kid Omega with him to Westchester, New York the home of the Jean Grey school for Higher Learning.RegenesisSince attending Wolverine's school, Kid Omega was of great help in their first conflict against a spawn of Krakoa that was being controlled by the new incarnation of the Hellfire Club. Wolverine even took Kid Omega with him to a gambling planet in order to use his skills to gain money for the school. Certain aliens that are there however can detect psychics and they end up fighting their way out of the casino.Alpha & OmegaQuentin was able to construct an entire world within the confines of his own psyche. He pulled the minds of Hisako Ichiki and Wolverine into his psychically constructed world, causing them to enter a comatose state. His "world" functioned as an AI driven game in which Wolverine and Hisako were unwilling players. Eventually, Quentin began to lose control over this "world", and Hisako and Wolverine were sent back to their own bodies. Phoenix CorporationQuentin, after having graduates from the Jean Grey School, became a teaching assistant. After the mysterious Phoenix Corporation found a way to hack into the school systems with a foreboding message, Quentin decided to track them down. He encountered Younge and his 'sexy nuns'. Storm and Wolverine soon followed, but were occupied with Faithful John and the nuns. Quentin hijacked a bamf, and ended up at the New Xavier School for Mutants, where he spoke with Cyclops, who later convinced Wolverine to give Quentin a chance. Back at "Camp Cyclops", Quentin battled the time displaced original X-Men, as well as Cyclops's new students. He was able to take them all down with great ease. Back at JGS, Faithful John was defeated by the efforts of Oya, Storm, Fantomex, Armor, Hellion, and the other students. Quentin, Oya, and Wolverine faced Quentin's future self, who was the possessor of the Phoenix Force. They killed future Quentin, leaving the Quentin of the present confused and distraught. He left the school after inheriting billions of dollars from the Phoenix Corporation. Now a billionaire, Quentin owns the east coast branch of the Hellfire Club, and is the Hellfire Club's newest White King. He recently turned 17 on September 17th, and threw a large birthday bash. Wolverine infiltrated the party and attempted to give his lost student one last push.Avengers & X-Men: AXISQuentin was inexplicably captured and detained in the Red Onslaught's "Reeducation Camp" for "genetic filth" (Mutants, Inhumans, etc.) on the abandoned island-kingdom of Genosha. He is captured alongside Scott Summers, mutant renegade, and Evan Sabahnur, his best friend and the genetic clone of En Sabah Nur, the Apocalypse. They are freed by Magneto, who murdered the Red Skull, thereby unleashing the Red Onslaught. The four mutants did battle with Ahab. Both Evan and Quentin are pierced by the lances of Ahab, the warden. Reinforcements soon arrived in the form of members of the Avengers, X-Men, and Fantastic Four, and a larger battle ensued. Eventually, the Red Onslaught and the two special sentinels he pitted against the heroes (built by Tony Stark & designed to take down heroes) took down most of the reinforcements. Quentin, Evan, and the remaining heroes went into hiding on Genosha, while Quentin blocked the Red Onslaught's telepathic scans, keeping the group hidden. The surviving members included Quentin, Evan, Sue Richards, Cyclops, Nightcrawler, Medusa, Iron Man, and Magneto. Quentin watches over Evan while he heals, and later continues to battle the Red Onslaught telepathically, holding off his attacks, even after the heroes fall in battle and Magneto's Cabal takes on the Onslaught. Evan continues to give Quentin gentle encouragement, until Quentin can no longer hold out, and is defeated by the Onslaught, as Evan joins the battle. The Scarlet Witch and Doctor Doom complete the Inversion Spell, defeating the Red Onslaught, but also 'inverting' several of the heroes and villains, as well, including Quentin and Evan.StatusKnown Relatives: Unidentified foster parents.Citizenship: U.S.A.Place of Birth: Unrevealed.Marital Status: Single.Occupation: Adventurer, Hellfire King, CEO, former student.Education: Various courses undertaken at Xavier Institute for Higher Learning and the Jean Grey School. Possessed enough knowledge to design anti-gravity floaters for Martha's container.CharacteristicsGender: MaleHeight: 5'8"Weight: 129 lbs. (59 Kg)Eyes: BrownHair: Brown, dyed purple or pinkPowers and AbilitiesQuentin Quire is an Omega level mutant. His primary powers are telepathy and hyper-intelligence, but he later displayed telekinesis. Emma Frost said that Quentin's mind processed over thousands of brilliant thoughts a second, this was while he was not under the effects of the drug kick. She also said that she and Professor X could not hope to keep up with him, and Professor X commended him for his intelligence and potential. Due to his superhuman intelligence Quentin burns through calories a lot faster and is therefore usually seen eating chocolate bars. When his secondary mutation triggered, Quentin evolved into a being of pure psionic energy and he was able to guide Phoenix when she mended the 616 timeline.His telepathy allowed him to do things such as read minds, telepathically attack others. He also displayed more subtle and complex methods of applying his powers, such as locking Wolverine in a memory loop and affect others opinion of him without them being aware of it. Since Wolverine has some natural telepathic resistance and mental blocks implanted by Professor Xavier, this speaks volumes of Quentin Quire's telepathy. He was also able to read Beast's mind with no problems, who has similar blocks. In order to defeat him the stepford cuckoos felt that it was necessary to use both the drug kick and cerebra, which would have amplified their collective power up to 70 times, cerebra being 10 and kick 7.In Phoenix Endsong Quentin displayed impressive telekinetic abilities. He was able to effortlessly freeze everything and everybody in the x-mansion. He was able to keep up a battle with the x-men, albeit inexperienced in combat, and halt the bleeding from his wounds. His telekinesis was rather precise for being in its nascent stage, as Quentin was able to partially reconstruct Sophie's decayed corpse. Tapping into the phoenix force he was actually able to bring her back to life. The Phoenix Force also requires the host to be an omega class mutant and of some ability, which is shown when Quentin displayed such a high degree of control.Psychic ConstructsQuentin has displayed the ability to create psychic constructs, similar to those of Psylocke and Rachel Grey. Among these psychic constructs that have so far been seen are: psychic shotgun, large psychic fists, psychic sword, psychic knife, psychic Wolverine claws, psychic X-23 claws, a psychokinetic shelter, a psychic bouquet of flowers and a card, and others.AbilitiesLike all students at Xavier's school for the gifted, Quentin has received training in various martial arts. He has also psychically absorbed the fighting abilities of Wolverine, making him an expert physical combatant, though Quentin would much rather effortlessly take down his opponents with telepathy. His genius level intellect has been compounded by the knowledge he's gained from the likes of Hank McCoy.Other versionsEarth-15104Earth-15104In the Here Comes Tomorrow storyline, Quentin lives in the extra-dimensional White Hot Room with other past hosts to the Phoenix as the Green Phoenix. He guides Jean Grey and helps her fix this timeline, despite the fact that he would have just killed it.Earth-91172On Earth-91172, a world ravaged by the Hulk, Quentin is the leader of the Next Wave of Heroes - the last heroes of earth. The members are Patriot, Wiccan, Lightspeed, Speedball and Sophie, Mindee and Esme Cuckoo. He is in a relationship with Sophie.The Exiles were supposed to come and save this reality, but never showed up, so Quentin traveled to different realities to search for them. This ended with him leading a new group of Exiles consisting of himself, Wild Child, Spitfire, Power Fist and Nighthawk. Their first mission will be to save Earth-91172.Earth-295Quentin Quire appears in the Age of Apocalypse as the head of a psychic pyramid known as the Overmind. Having enough power to pose a threat to the Overlord, Jean Grey and Prophet approach him in order to join their cause. Unfortunately, during the psychic negotiation, Quentin takes his own life. Quentin's brain is then taken and used by Stryker against the Shadow King.Battle of the AttomBattle of the AtomQuentin Quire appears in the Battle of the Atom future timeline as the host of the Phoenix and still a member of the X-Men. When his younger Earth-616 counterpart asked him when he finally left the school, this future version just laughed at him and walked away suggesting that he never left.

Once again, The Kansas City Star continues its always-look-on-the-bright-side-of-life coverage of the Sprint Center's inability to land a big-name tenant.
AEG finally admitted in this article from today's paper that the Sprint Center will open in October without a NBA or NHL franchise. But the Star's Randy Covitz dutifully reported the spin from Tim Leiweke, president of AEG, the company that's supposed to be finding us a tenant. Covitz reported Leiweke claiming that he has "spent more time on a team in Kansas City in the last two weeks than at any time I have been involved in this project ... more time than we spent on the Penguins."
This is an alarming statement. More time now than ever? What about the months he was courting the Penguins?
Then Covitz quotes Rick Horrow, a Florida-based sports dealmaker, saying, "Last year's Penguins are this year's SuperSonics and maybe next year's Predators."
Uh, probably not for Kansas City. Oklahoma City businessman Clay Bennett bought the Sonics last year and wants to move the team to Las Vegas. Kansas City is an afterthought in every story about the Sonics' potential relocation.
Then Horrow talks about his experience getting Miami an NBA franchise: "When I was involved in the south Florida expansion effort, we waited for seven years between the time there was a desire to build a new arena and the awarding of the Miami Heat. That doesn't mean it's going to take seven years in Kansas City, but the judgment of a success or failure of an arena shouldn't depend on the attraction of a major-league sports franchise, nor how quickly it happens."
The NBA awarded Miami the Heat in 1988. The team played in the newly opened Miami Arena. In a killer story last year, The Seattle Post-Intelligencer reported that the Heat burned out of the Miami Arena for the brand-new American Airlines Arena in 2000, sticking Miami-Dade County with nearly $42 million of the bill for the Miami Arena unpaid.
Don't be fooled. Kansas City is on the clock. In seven years or less, the Sprint Center will be considered obsolete by the standards of today's NBA and NHL owners. The older the building gets, the less likely Kansas City is to lure a team. And other cities will have built newer arenas.
Still buying what Covitz is selling?
The Los Angeles Times ran the headline "When will it become obsolete?" the day the Staples Center opened in 1999.
Timothy Chapin, an urban planning professor at Florida State University, told the Post-Intelligencer that obsolete to an NBA owner doesn't mean the arena is crumbling. To the Clay Bennetts and Mario Lemieuxs of the world, obsolete means: "We want more seats; we want more suites. We can make more money in a bigger arena. It's not a matter of our building being bad. It's a matter of the team not being able to make as much money as they could in a new arena."
Despite what you read in the Star, it's worth repeating: We're pucked. -- Justin Kendall

Setting patient expectations in the ER
Imagine you walk into a restaurant named Luigi's. From the décor and the smell of pasta sauce coming from the kitchen, you assume that this restaurant serves Italian food. You walk forward, your name is taken and you are then told to sit off to the side and wait until your name is called so that you can get a table. Time goes by, and no one gives you any eye contact or tells you what's going on but you're quite hungry and so you wait. Other people go get seated ahead of you and you don't know why.Continue Reading >

US Navy Begins Use of Industrial Nanotech Patented Product for Lead AbatementNAPLES, FL | Posted on July 24th, 2007
"This is a relatively small initial order, but it is a very significant breakthrough in our ongoing efforts to gain market share for Nansulate LDX throughout US Government facilities worldwide. The performance capabilities of our new environmentally safe, water based, lead abatement coating offers a new technology in lead abatement that can be applied to any substrate, forming a barrier coat to seal highly toxic lead paints," explained Francesca Crolley VP of Operations for Industrial Nanotech. "In addition to superior performance compared to traditional lead encasement coatings, Nansulate LDX offers the additional benefits which are the standard of Nansulate product line; the combination of thermal insulation, protection against corrosion, and the prevention of mold growth without the use of toxic moldicides. The ease of application, the performance criteria, and surface tolerance make Nansulate LDX a premier lead abatement coating."
