30 Seconds in the Mother City
Rob PetersCape Town played host to yet another sold-out show this past weekend with 30 Seconds to Mars packing the Grand West Casino on Sunday night. Frontman Jared Leto may not have been quite as active as fellow singer John Legend, but he still managed to snap a couple of pics – and post a video - to Instagram, chronicling his time in the Mother City. To be fair, the group didn't spent quite as long in town as the R&B crooner, but it's still pretty clear that the city worked its magic on Leto.

Rookie Patrick Corbin pitched a career-long eight innings and drove in four runs with a triple and single, leading the Arizona Diamondbacks to a 10-2 rout of the San Francisco Giants on Sunday. The RBIs and the extra-base hit were firsts for Corbin, who entered the game batting .071 (2 for 28). Justin Upton had a solo homer and two-run double as the Diamondbacks averted a three-game Giants sweep. Corbin (6-7) tripled in three runs in Arizona's 5-run fourth inning. The young left-hander scattered eight hits, striking out five and walking one. For the second straight start against Arizona, Ryan Vogelsong (12-9) lasted just 3 1-3 innings. He allowed seven runs, six earned, on five hits with six strikeouts and four walks, one intentional. Vogelsong gave up six runs in 3 1-3 innings against the Diamondbacks two starts ago. NL West-leading San Francisco had not allowed this many runs since a 14-2 loss to Washington on Aug. 13. Corbin had not pitched longer than seven innings in...

November 28, 2014
WASHINGTON (AP) - Fresh off re-election, Vice President Joe Biden will appear on the NBC sitcom "Parks and Recreation" next week.
The vice president's office said Biden taped a cameo appearance back in July. He said Thursday on Twitter that "my whole family loves the show, and I had a great time doing it."
The show's executive producer told The New York Times that Biden's appearance was taped under strict secrecy. The show was warned that provisions might have to be made to give Republican vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan a similar cameo if word of Biden's participation leaked out before Tuesday's election.
Biden frequently has been mentioned on the show as an object of fascination by lead character Leslie Knope, played by Amy Poehler.

HoopsHype Danny Granger Buzz Meter
by HoopsHype - Updated: November 26, 2014 | 12:55 PM
Spoelstra said Danny Granger is fully cleared to play, said rotation, bringing Granger along slowly is factoring in.
Dwyane Wade, Danny Granger and Udonis Haslem take warmup shots before Hornets game. burst.com/h/gy18072
Wade on the court for another pregame workout for Heat, currently shooting jumpers alongside Danny Granger.
With Deng's inconsistency, McRoberts' rust & Granger's unavailability, the re-signing of Chalmers stands out as a rare positive so far.
Granger's rapid decline reminds me of Redd, which reminds me that it's a fine line between all-star scorer and washed up bench dude.
And Danny Granger is healthy enough to dunk.
Danny Granger just clanked the side of the backboard on a corner 3. We got a name for that? @Trey Kerby @tasmelas @jeskeets
So wait for Granger until now?
Um, what ever happened to Danny Granger being healthy? Hasn't played.
Heat had tweeted Granger as a starter then removed the tweet. Now have Deng and Chalmers starting.
Surgeon told Danny Granger this summer that he wouldn't feel right until after New Year's. He's not rushing back.
Miami #Heat notebook: Chalmers pleasing Spoelstra with ability to sacrifice; Granger's debut; team injury update foxsports.com/florida/story/…
Spo: "(Granger's) really been proceeding well & at a good rate. We're trying to get him more practice time, we'll continue to evaluate him."
Spoelstra on Granger: "He hasn't played where he's felt great about his body in over 2 years. I'd say he's ahead of schedule."
Danny Granger with 4pts in 20mins tonight, his first game with the Heat. Started, too. He missed the first 10gms with a hamstring injury.
Heat are missing 3 important players and plugging in Granger and Dawkins. They shot poorly overall and yet only down 5 at the half.
Nets 17, Heat 14, 3:37 left in Q1. D. Granger has 2p on 1/2 FGs so far in his debut. Bosh (12/49 FGs last 3 games) has yet to take a shot.

Danny Granger will be available tonight for the #Heat but likely won't play. Per Spoelstra, he has a "slight strain of his hip flexor"
Usual starters for the Heat. Justin Hamilton and Andre Dawkins inactive, so Danny Granger and Chris Andersen active.
Spoelstra says Birdman likely to play. Granger most likely to dress but not play.
No Justin Hamilton for Heat tonight, but Chris Andersen likely and Danny Granger remains open-in-case-of-emergency.
From Sun Sentinel: Granger's first game as #Pacers opponent likely to wait fw.to/4yhM6fj
Danny Granger's first game as a Pacers opponent likely will have to wait. bit.ly/1xqzQGN
Granger: "It was a lot of dislike, I'll just leave it at that. I'm sure they didn't like us either. It was an intense rivalry."

Coming home after work, we were nearly blinded by the brilliance of the setting sun. A very pretty end to the day.
Rest well tonight, everyone! 🌅
Thanks for stopping by! 🌸
Katy Perry said it. Helen Reddy said it. Countless unknown and unrecognized women across time and continents have said it. I am woman hear me ROAR!
Women can be and are just as powerful, smart, cunning, savvy as men. We can organize, lead, unite just as well as men. We are no better and certainly, no less than men. But media would have us think otherwise.
I'm a big fan of documentaries, particularly those that explore human behaviour. It's the psych student in me! Anyway, this afternoon I watched a docu called Miss Representation. It's about the media portrayal of women, and how those images are affecting the girls who view them.
As a one time girl, and a mother of two girls (and a son but it's not his turn right now) who are on the cusp of adolescence, these issues are a huge deal for me. I won't go into all the problems with how women are presented stereotypically, and in a highly demeaning light. This is well documented and in our faces on a daily basis.
But more voices need to be heard on this matter. Mainly from women, from mothers of daughters and from the girls themselves. What could be a better message of empowerment than to encourage your daughters to stand up for themselves.
And let us not forget the boys. Yes, this is the part where my son jumps in. Because what girls hear is "you're not pretty, thin, or desirable enough". What the boys hear is "a girls looks, and sexual availability are all that matter". Wrong message, on both counts.
Everyone should see Miss Representation. My aim is to try to get it viewed at the school my kids attend; it means that much to me. I found it on Netflix, but it may be available on other sites. You can also follow on Twitter (@RepresentPledge)
So, ladies on the count of three… Let me hear you ROAR!!
Thanks for stopping by! 🌸
🔰The Maze Runner is the latest book in the Young Adult genre of fiction that has become a motion picture.
After seeing The Hunger Games parts 1 and 2 last year, I fell for YA fiction. Reading and watching The Maze Runner have me completely enamoured. What makes it so appealing to 45 year old mother of three nearly young adults of her own?
The characters in a lot of the novels are a different breed from the girls and boys in the books I read. Back in the 80s Judy Bloom cranked out a pile of novels geared toward the pre/teen/late teen crowd. They were great, well written. They spoke of all the ups and downs puberty can put you through. Dating, bras, dreams, hopes fears. My generation was the last generation to be relatively sheltered and innocent in the ways of the world.
This generation, those in their 20s and younger aren't like that. There's a boldness I see in my children and their counterparts that my friends and I didn't have. A fearlessness, confidence, I CAN DO ANYTHING-ness, that I wish I had 20/25 years ago. This is what comes out in The Hunger Games, Divergent, The Maze Runner, and other works of this type. When faced with a challenge the main characters may pause for a moment, before making a choice, taking a path, but it's evident that just know that they must and will do something. They'll succeed or die trying.
I find these books refreshing. Adult fiction tends to be predictable, as are the movies they become. Rom-coms, thrillers, mysteries. There is very rarely an ending that surprises. I'm tired of the predictable!
So join in, grab a YA novel or wait for the movie to come out but definitely give it a try! 🙌
Thanks for stopping by! 🌸
I'm not even sure where to start with this. My mind and my heart are overcome with emotion.
I'm missing my grandfather today. It comes along every now and again; I'll think of him from time to time, then a day will come where my eyes fill with tears and I cry for him. Openly, unashamed, like a child, freely.
My grandfather, was Herbert Leonard Green. My grandmother called him Herbie, as did I. No one questioned the fact that I didn't call him Grandpa, or Grandfather. No one stopped me from calling him by his first name. None of my other cousins did this, and if they had tried I would have quickly put a stop to it. My parents tell me that I even went so far as to tell my grandmother that he was MY Herbie. No one argued with me.
I loved him so. With the kind of unconditional adoring love that only children know. Before we grow up and feel the sting of broken hearts and broken promises, this is how love is. My childhood was tumultuous. A lot of moving from place to place. One parent here, one there. A lot of stress from a very young age. When I was about 4, we moved to Jamaica (where my family is from). A lot went on while we were there. I was an only child, shy, quiet. I think my grandfather understood me, in a way no one else did.
In the midst of all the insanity swirling around me, he was a tranquil sea. Sometimes he picked me up from school and we went back to his office for a couple of hours. He'd give me chocolate to eat while I watched him work. At home (we lived in my grandparents house for a while) he told me stories and poems, from memory, from his childhood. He sang me songs while I sat on his lap. At night before bed, he would make me a big cup of Milo, a chocolate mix. I remember kneeling beside my grandparent's bed, grandma on one side, Herbie on the other, while we said bedtime prayers. And I felt safe, with him there.
After we came back to Canada, I didn't see him very often. We didn't get back to Jamaica more than once every couple of years. And I'd go visit my grandparents for a few hours. And I still loved him with that childlike love, even as a teenager. He died in his 80s; Cancer. We knew he was going, and he had said he didn't want any meds, no fancy care, just for us to let him go. He'd had a long, fulfilling life, he didn't want to prolong the inevitable.
My parents lived out of the country at the time. When he was gone, my mom called my aunt, who came to me and broke the news. I was 21/22, but I bawled like a baby. I went to his funeral, and I was fine, it's like he was there, just out of reach. We were at my grandparents house after, everyone laughing and sharing stories about him. And I kept looking around, expecting him to come out from his room, to be at the table, to sit with me and sing to me a song in his sweet, smooth voice….
I'll be 45 in November. My Herbie has been gone over 20 years now. I miss him. Really miss him. He's gone, but my love for him carries on.
Thanks for stopping by! 🌸
Reading was my thing. Books were my escape, my way of becoming someone else, losing myself in a different world with different friends. People knew me not by my face but by the book IN FRONT of my face. I read on the bus, at lunchtime, even while walking down the street. The way people have their eyes glued to their phones now, that was me and my book.
But marriage, motherhood, and a mortgage (i.e. Full time employment) has kept me from being the avid reader I was. I've tried to regain that devotion.I've borrowed from the library, I've purchased books, and even tried e-reading. I just am not able to concentrate as in days past. And I must confess there is so much on offer on TV it's hard to turn away and pick up a page turner.
And it's just hit me: the shows I immerse myself in are, when you think about it, live books. Continuing series are digital stories, and with access to stations like AMC where I can watch Hell On Wheels, and Netflix which offers a mad amount of viewing options, well..
Just as in any book I can lose myself in the storyline of the shows I watch. I can love and hate the characters. I can want to see the next chapter and not want the story to end. I'll never completely give up on books, I love the feel and the smell and the comfort of them too much to turn my back on them. But there is plenty of room in my life for stories come to life as well.
Thanks for stopping by! 🌸
I'm a bit of an amateur photo. Unfortunately I don't have a camera, I just use my cellphone 📱. But that's perfectly acceptable so I do so freely and with impunity :D
Here are a couple random shots I took this week:
Hope you enjoy, and get on out there and get snapping!
Thanks for stopping by! 🌸
I've just heard about two high school events. My high school. Where I graduated 26 years ago. Twenty. Six. My youngest brother in law is 26. Yeh.
So, one event is the school's 50th anniversary. There'll be an open house, and "social" (who says that in 2014?? 😐). That could be interesting, seeing a few people from way back, maybe a couple of teachers I liked. The chance, though, of seeing a lot of people I know are pretty slim. 50 years means a lot of kids.
The other event is smaller, put on by a few classmates from our grad class of '88/89. NO! 1989 not 1889 don't be cheeky! I admit it's loooong time ago but still…
It's to be at a pub downtown, smaller, more intimate, word's being spread via Facebook, trusty news carrier service.
The thought of attending this one actually makes me nervous. I know we've all aged and drooped a bit. Hair slightly less full and shiny. Posture a little less striaght. But I've seen pix of some of my colleagues and a couple of them look great. I'm not ashamed to say how intimidating that is.
On Facebook you can post the best picture taken at the best angle in the best light in the best clothes. Live and in person is not always so flattering. One reason for going to these things it to see if the high and mighty have fallen. To see if the cheerleaders have lot a bit of the pep they had in their step. Time is meant to be the leveler of these things. I'm afraid I'll go and everyone will look better than me, and then I'll have to face the fact that I'm getting older.
We'll see how things go.

I'm recovering from near brain-death. In case you missed it,
last weekend (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday) a group of us took
boards: Physiotherapy, Part II, and Part III. I wish I could say it
was 3 days full of fun-filled magical awesomeness, but I think you
guys know me well enough to know I'd be lying through my teeth.
We all survived the weekend, in large part due to the support we
gave each other. Julia was my right-hand this weekend. She made me
study when I didn't want to, go over questions, and made sure I got
out of the hotel room on time (and didn't get lost too badly
getting back and forth from the hotel). Ricky and Alid were the
humor for the weekend. The four of us (including Julia) and two of
Alid's friends from Palmer, went for dinner after PT. I honestly
thought we would be kicked out of the restaurant, we were laughing
so hard. It was just what I needed to keep me going another
It was great to see the smiling faces of people we've taken
tests with before from other schools, and also of each other. Kind
words of encouragement were given by so many. Leslie, Bryan, Julia,
Alid, Theresa, Ricky, Roshaun, and Dave: My huge thanks to you guys
for keeping me going this past weekend -- even if you didn't
realize that's what you were doing.

It was a weekend fueled by caffeine and lack of sleep. We
learned how little sleep we could survive on, how many questions we
could answer in a short period of time, and how much caffeine was
required to take an exam at 7:00 a.m. We were laughing at each
other and our test-taking strategies, how long it took to finish
certain exams, and how much we were stressing about something
really and truly out of our control.
Boards are interesting, because you've been studying for them
all along. There's really nothing to "cram" for, and yet we cram
every time. Of course, it doesn't hurt to refresh memory on what
we've not seen for a couple of years even. Part I, last year, was a
test of the basic sciences. While these were more clinical, the
basic science stuff just doesn't go away. There's always something
that didn't get covered, that we haven't heard before, or that
we've never seen. There are questions on every test that make no
sense, and like all standardized test, more than enough
opportunities to overthink something. I've always been baffled at
how any exam in medicine can be made into a "Multiple Guess" test
-- when everything we do in medicine is completely essay.
But, we survive. No! We endure. And however the scores come out,
they come out. We'll take them as they come.

In other news, clinic is in full swing. At the HEC NUHS Student
Clinic, we are BUSY. We've been seeing sports physicals and regular
patients -- several every day. As the term gets underway for the
SPC students, we'll be seeing less of some sports physicals, and
more of others. I believe we're serving at least 3 different sports
teams now -- so there will be no shortage there.
I'm finishing up a quarter for the Master's program at UWS.
Finals are this week. Hard to come back and tackle that after last
week. But I'm SO looking forward to two weeks off with no pressing
studies. Next quarter with them starts in a few weeks with Sports
Nutrition and Fitness, Gastrointestinal Imbalances, and
Oxidative/Reductive Dynamics and Energy Production. Sounds like a
Have a Great week, Everybody!!!!
The trimester is coming to a close, and I can honestly say it's
flown by. We're all scrambling to meet deadlines in the clinic:
this many of this, that many of that. It hardly seems that about 12
weeks ago we were terrified we'd be horrible at this. Truth be
told, I didn't think anything about deadlines and numbers and
paperwork (OK, well I did think about paperwork a little bit).
That's probably why I'm scrambling now.
The last couple of weeks have been discussions about who is
transitioning to the other clinic, and some talks about where we'll
end up. Half of our crew is moving to the other clinic. It's
unlikely that I'll see them very often. Perhaps we'll have seminars
or training sessions of some sort, or get together outside of
school (although we don't do that now). But in a few weeks, there
will be another big transition for all of us. Some of us have been
together, nearly every day, for about 3 years. This will be
something really new.
Newness. It reminds me of my theory about Maslow's Hierarchy
from last week. Incidentally, I've been working some more on that,
but I'll spare you all the details. I had the pleasure to discuss
it with two of my fellow interns today, the concept of new ideas.
We were talking about my theory, and about other theories -- things
in medicine and science that seem to have been left behind. We were
discussing the idea that there are no new ideas.

"There is no such thing as a new
idea. It is impossible. We simply take a lot of old ideas and put

I grew up not far from good ol' Mark Twain's stomping grounds,
but between you and me, his writing always made me crazy. No matter
how much I tried, I couldn't understand the dialect he wrote. I'm
not sure that I agree with Mark; it seems we're discovering new
things all the time. From god particles to medicines, we strive and
learn how to change, adapt, and understand the world around us.
If the last 12 weeks in the clinic have taught me anything, it's
that we have no standard approach to treating anything. We have to
be willing to come up with new ideas, or at the very least, new
applications for old ideas. For every patient that comes in, even
if they have the "same" diagnosis, what works for each one of them
is likely to be something completely different.
I'm fairly certain that our discussion today came to the
conclusion that there has to be something new. There has to be a
pursuit of Science that crosses boundaries into new territories,
that bypasses the need for a randomized controlled trial of
everything, and simply embraces discovery for the sake of
discovery, and implementation for the benefit of the whole. Perhaps
we're all idealists. I see no problem with that. Being idealistic
just promotes my love of the field and my hope for making a

OK, Neil. I'll take that one to heart. The greatest theories
come from crazy idealists.
I wish you all many great new discoveries. May your kaleidoscope
always look just a little bit different.
I can't believe this week is Thanksgiving. Happy Thanksgiving
everybody! A few of my classmates are heading out of town, up
North, over the river and through the woods, but most of us are
staying somewhat local. Those that are going up North are getting
ready to be bundled up. I understand there are record lows --
especially up in the Northeast. We're actually expecting a brisk
temperature of 66ºF on Thanksgiving. Everyone will have their
parkas and snowboots on.
Turkey Bowl
Friday night was Turkey Bowl. If you've never heard of the
infamous NUHS Turkey Bowl, here's where you'll become indoctrinated
in this time-honored tradition. Students, alumni, faculty members,
and significant others launch themselves onto the football field to
non-violently duke it out to compete for (starting this year) the
Stiefel Cup [named for the president of NUHS and former dean of the
College of Professional Studies - Florida].
This year, the victors were from Tri 1 and Tri 6 (including our
own Antoinette Stewart and Lauren Domanski) and our MVPs were Dr.
Chris Arick and Danielle Spratt. It's my understanding that no
severe injuries were met and no one went to the hospital -- so it
was a good game.
We had a HUGE turnout of people! A lot of the faculty came out
-- including some professors that I haven't seen in a really long
time. I saw new students that I'd never seen before. I met spouses
and kids that I didn't know existed. It was just a really great
"family" environment. There was really amazing food provided and
the people that weren't playing just hung out. It was really cool
and made me wish that I'd gone last year. The funniest thing was to
see our professors and Assistant Dean (Dr. Daniel Strauss) don
shorts and T-shirts and blend in with all of the "kids." We really
couldn't tell the difference between them.
Impending Finals
So, this is the last week before finals start. Next week is
practical week and the following week has all the written exams.
I'm not looking forward to either -- but I'll be really glad to
move on. I've already taken the Marketing final, the final
practical for Rehab, and the Phlebotomy written final is this week.
I'm checking off boxes and crossing things off my list (and trying
not to go crazy).
Well, that's it from me. I hope everyone has an amazing holiday
-- that you have just as much dinner as you want, just enough
family dysfunction to seem OK, and just enough tryptophan to have a
really good nap. And of course, in true medical student style --
dissect the turkey -- don't carve it.
This is one of those times when writing the blog is tough,
because I can't remember all of the things I've done over the last
week! I'm to the point where I'm keeping daily lists so things
don't fall through the cracks. There's just so much to do and so
much to study for.
Last week I had 2 exams, and this coming week, 2 exams and 2
quizzes. Next week (brace yourself), there are 5 exams. I've always
wondered why we do things this way. Five exams in one week are too
many. It's just as if it were finals. But, here we are.
I was able to join some of my classmates out on Friday night. It
seems that a good time was had by all. We were able to meet some of
the first trimester folks that I'd missed from the First Tri Mixer.
They all seem really great. One of the drawbacks to the way our
campus is set up here is that the students are spread out to four
different places. We have the basic science students in one
location, the clinical science students in another, and the interns
in two different clinic locations. So, once someone crosses over
into a different area, we don't always see each other again--unless
we make an effort to do so. So that's why the mixers and impromptu
get-togethers are really important. It gives us a chance to meet
some of the other students from different locations.
I like how cohesive our group is in particular. I've mentioned
this before, but we really do become somewhat of a family. After
all, we spend five days a week, together, ALL day. If we don't love
or hate each other by the end, there's something wrong. Those that
have joined our original four members have been welcome additions.
And of course we miss those that have left us--whether they
transferred campuses to Lombard, or decided to slow down. Most of
my original class is now in the same building. It's good to see
them every day again. I've missed them.
As if I didn't have enough going on, last week, I started the
Master's Degree in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine through
the University of Western States. The program is all online and we
have students from literally all over the world. The program there
is a wonderful complement to the program here. Since my goal is to
have an integrative, functional medicine practice, it's a great fit
for me. My goal is to complete the master's about the same time I
finish here at National. I'll let you all know how that's
Time management and prioritizing are absolutely key to
maintaining some semblance of sanity with all this coursework. I'm
not sure I'm there yet--but I'm working on it. Of course, anyone
that knows me knows that I'm at least partly insane, so I must have
lost something somewhere. Calendars, schedules, lists, planning,
and keeping track of everything that has to be done is extremely
important. On top of that, checking all of those things off the
list is extremely fulfilling. I have to remember to ONLY put things
on the list that HAVE to be done--no lofty ambitions, week-long
projects, or 5-year goals. My lists sometimes get out of
control--admittedly, and sometimes they end up with the weirdest,
most random thoughts written on them--like philosophical questions.
And THAT could go anywhere. :)

I took a few minutes out of studying on Saturday to go to a
ROOTS seed and plant share event. We grew a lot of our own food
when I was growing up, and as I've had space, have tried to do the
same off and on. Now that I have some yard space, I'm working on it
again. Let me just say that this event was absolutely amazing.
People from the local area bring seeds they've collected,
cuttings, plants, trees--you name it--and they just give it away. I
took some Aloe seeds that my plant had put out last year. I'd been
saving them for quite a while. I honestly didn't even know that
Aloe seeded; I'd only seen people plant Aloe by cutting. The Aloe
plant that produced the seed was gifted to me a few years ago from
a fellow student, so it only seemed fitting that I gift its
progeny. In return, I was gifted pumpkin seeds, stevia seeds,
loofah seeds, and heirloom squash seeds. I was hoping for loofah,
but couldn't believe how much was there!?! A lady tried to send me
home with a bag full of about 500 seeds! People were so generous.
I'm eternally grateful, and hopefully my garden will be booming
here in a couple of weeks. Since I've never had a fall garden
before, I have no idea what to expect. We shall see.
Happy Studying and Organizing everyone! Have a great week!
The sun was not shining. It was too
wet they say.
So we sat in the classroom during lunch on that day.
I sat there with Dave, Ricky, and
Danielle, too.
And then we said, "We just don't know what to do!"
It was too soon to study for old
too early for Neuro, or WBCs.
We'd already had coffee, and water and lunch.
We all just sat there, our shoulders did hunch.
Then something went "Thwap!" In the
corner we looked.
My rainbow umbrella no longer was hooked.
I'd carried it in to avoid my own
to keep me nice and dry, so I would stay warm.
That umbrella it had the most greatest of power,
and because of it, this is what we did for the hour...
The storm we did weather, the damage
was done.
So sorry for all that mess has become.
It was not my purpose to cause such turmoil;
I'd rather be wearing a hat made of foil.
Exam time has started, insanity
We all are now paying, our most diligent of dues.
Miss Lauren, and Julia, Annaliese,
we all seek our studying quotas be met.
Alid, Miss Lexxi, Theresa and my Self
are looking to each other for all kinds of help.
Our Classmates--the greatest, we
always take care.
Through storms we will weather, through struggles we bear.
We help one another with notes and with guides.
and sometimes with excuses when one of us hides.
We'll make it through all of this
educational mess.
and help one another prepare for these tests.
We'll pass all the boards and study
real hard,
and in the end we'll come out with a card,
a license, a paper, more knowledge than known,
and after all of this we'll start practices of our very
(Special thanks to those that participated in our
educational/recreational efforts, to Jordan for his contribution,
and to Dr. Seuss, for being a large part of who I am.)
Happy studying for midterms everybody,

The U.S. national average for bulk diesel exhaust FLid prices remained stable for less-than-truckload and tote refill delivery modes, while full truckload deliveries posted a 6 cents per gallon average price increase.
Commodity data provider Integer Research also said Canadian DEF bulk prices followed a different trend and decreased across all supply formats, according to its DEF Tracker.
While U.S. national truck stop prices have remained stable for the second consecutive month, the Canadian national average price at truck stops moved back to CA$0.80 per liter after settling at CA$0.81 during the past two months.
A month-to-month increase in prices was observed for 2.5 gallon jugs, with the U.S. national average price shifting upwards by 6 cents per gallon to $5.88 per gallon in June.
The highest average prices for bulk delivery modes were found in Phoenix and San Francisco. On the other hand, the lowest averages were found in Atlanta, Cincinnati and Houston.
Diesel exhaust fluid is required in most 2010 and later model truck engines in order to meet federal emissions requirements.

Tony Flannery, 66, is a high-profile and well known priest who has previously spoken out of line with the Church's stance on hot topics such as contraception and homosexuality.
The Galway Redemptorist priest revealed last month that he was ordered to sign a pledge by the church that he supports their teachings.
He can now no longer minister as a priest and is being threatened with excommunication by the Vatican.
"They wanted me to sign and publish a document on these issues stating that I accepted fully the Vatican's position on them which I wouldn't have been able to do without turning my back on things I've been saying for 30 years," he explained.
"It was a very difficult year for me, for most of the year I was forbidden to minister as a priest and then as it went on I was told that I would never again minister as a priest unless I gave them the statement that they were looking for."
"To be told that you can no longer do what you had done all your life and what you had loved doing was very difficult."
He says that he has received a lot of support from his family, colleagues, and parishioners since going public about the rift.
He said: "I have been getting massive support from the Catholic people in Ireland through the last 11 months, all that has been a great help."
I cannot violate my conscience and I have to be able to live with myself for the rest of my life. If you lose your integrity, you lose your sense of respect for yourself.Father Tony Flannery
I cannot violate my conscience and I have to be able to live with myself for the rest of my life. If you lose your integrity, you lose your sense of respect for yourself.
Father Tony Flannery
Another priest who was censured by the Vatican was Father Brian D'arcy.
The popular Fermanagh preacher was reprimanded for his views on priests being able to marry and his criticism of the child abuse scandals.
"I felt saddened that after 50 years of giving your life to an organisation that some person thought I was untrustworthy," he said at the time.
"It was very hurtful."
Fr D'arcy vowed to continue his work in the media, despite being ordered that he must have all contributions to the media approved by the Vatican, but he was allowed to keep practicing.
Irish Times journalist, Patsy McGarry claims the Vatican has taken a hard line with priests stepping out of line with the church.
"Fr Tony Flannery would be a very popular figure in Ireland, he would be very well known," he told UTV.
"He is one of quite a number of prominent priests who have been silenced by the Church in recent times, all of whom have a number of things in common.
"They tended to be sympathetic to people who are having difficulty with church teachings on issues such as contraception, women in the priesthood, teaching on homosexuality.
"They tended to be more compassionate in their interpretation of church teachings and this is reflected in their writings."
Mr McGarry said that Rome has been tough on bringing these priests in line with the orthodoxy as part of a response to recent crises.
"Rome it seems is blaming a liberal interpretation of church teaching for the abuse that took place in the Irish Catholic Church involving priests going back decades," he claimed.
"The implication being, that people were too liberal in their interpretation, too tolerant in their application of church teaching, if they had been rigorous in terms of church law, in terms of church dogma, this wouldn't have happened.
"It doesn't stand up to scrutiny. It is frankly nonsensical because some of the bishops who oversaw the abuse in for instance, the Dublin archdiocese and in Cloyne archdiocese, would be among the most orthodox men, conservative Irish catholic leaders we have had in the 21st century."
Fr Flannery is intent on standing by his words, but he admitted the decision has been very "lonely and personal".
He said the ban from active priesthood has been the worst consequence for him and that if the ban is not lifted, he will need to "move on".
The priest said his faith remains unfaltering, and that he sees a distinction between God and the church.
"No matter what the church does to me, nothing can become between me and my faith in God."

Mumbai, June 22 (IBNS): Entertainment content company Shemaroo Entertainment Ltd announced the release of popular 1986 tele-serial Nukkad in a 13 DVD pack.
It has the complete 100 episodes of the serial and includes both the old series as well as the new one.
The word Nukkad means street corner. As the name suggests, the serial, aired on DD National in 1986-87, dealt with the struggles of common people who live around a street, trying to make a living in an increasingly harsh social and economic climate.
They met at the local street corner - 'Nukkad', every evening and shared their life stories with each other and sometimes even started some new ones too.
With a touch of humour, the serial portrayed the realities of a common man's life.
All the characters in the serial reflected a different personality like Khopdi, Teacher ji, Pheku and Guru among others.

Hello there dear backers.
It is way past the release date. Sadly we have to announce that we need more time. We need at least a few extra months. We don't want to release an unfinished product. Balrum has to be polished!
There is good news too! Balrum is getting much bigger and we are adding extra features along the way. The remaining chapters are coming along nicely and we have a big update for you right now.
We would like to ask you guys something. What do you think about an open beta for all backers? The beta version has been out now for a long time. We are way past the release date so we think that we should at least give the beta to those who bought the game but had no beta access.
The beta does not include backer specific and backer created content. The content created by you will be in the final product.
The new beta is available now at the usual place!
Crafting has been rewritten and redesigned from the ground up. Now we have multiple craft panels for each crafting stage/element as opposed to everything being in one large panel. All crafting systems are more comfortable to use and all remaining crafting related features have been implemented. Now you are informed via a tooltip when something is not right about your custom recipe.
Now you have a chance for a critical craft! Items will receive a minor bonus if a critical craft has happened. You can increase the critical craft chance with a few items.
All those previously unusable items are now usable in at least one of the crafting systems.
Some weapons now have special on hit effects.
A few new items worth mentioning:
You should check out the trinket that Grandpa gives you! It might help you out in certain situations, but be prepared for a few surprises when using it!
Building your house has also received a big update. Now you are only able to build in a certain place (see what Grandpa has to say) but you are not restricted in any way. No more distance restrictions and other unnecessary things. You are able to build lots of things this time around (almost 4 times more than before). Also you will find special schematics for statues, paintings, trophies all around Darkwood.
Now you are able to build pig and spider troughs. You can release your bought/found pigs or spiders near the appropriate trough. Your livestock will produce "goodies" in the nearest barrel. If your animals are fed regularly they might produce offsprings.
All remaining disabled quests and unfinished quests are now completed. You can except quests that have radical outcomes if you choose your path loosely.
Spoiler ahead! For example: You discover the true origins of an NPC and if you decide to cruelly inform him about this new knowledge the consequences might be dire. This might even put other NPC's lives in danger.
There are a number of new traps in the game including the "Taming trap" which enables you to capture a new pet if your Hunting skill allows it...Read More

Futures continue to suggest a higher open
Stock futures remain higher as investors have now turned more optimistic about the outlook for a solution to the fiscal cliff crisis. The government's sale of its remaining stake in AIG (AIG) is also lifting the futures. The trade balance report was released for the month of October, and showed a deficit of $42.2B versus the expected deficit of $42.7B. Trading is expected to be slow once again, barring any reports of a fiscal cliff breakthrough.

Art Fair

I went to the Art Fair on the Square downtown today. There were so many awesome artists and really beautiful pieces. I especially loved the black and white photography. It's probably a good thing I couldn't afford to buy anything because I really don't have any room to take anything more back home with me. However, if money wasn't an object, I could have easily spent thousands of dollars. alcorandmizar, you probably would have liked the astrophotography booth. However, the guy claimed he didn't use any filters or selective coloring, and I'm not sure I believe him. There was also a lady who made purses out of what looked like old record sleeves. She had AC/DC and a bunch of other classic rock bands.

At least Zuckerberg is approachable and allows people to take photos with him. But maybe Jobs wants to keep that line drawn to keep the stature. When we can't reach celebs they seem less human and more intriguing.

Why does Facebook have to subsume everything else on the web, and why do I need to use Facebook to use Skype? Now are all my Skype conversations going to be stored or analyzed somewhere in FB. I wish this Facebook thing would just hurry up along the trajectory of MySpace.
Anyway, who needs to compare these people. To me, Jobs has a drive and vision, I don't know what the hell Zuckerberg stands for or wants, and I don't like the Internet being turned into Orwells future prediction.

Anon., totally agree! I know a lot of non-FB folks - they just refuse to use it. But if you criticize Mark, all of his sycophantic fans get upset. Aside from the 30 year difference, there are incredible differences between the two. Ever notice that famous residents in other local communities aren't bragged about ad nauseam? That's the peninsula I remember...& miss -too bad so many in PA can't keep their enthusiasm in check. Now people frequently are standing around Mark's house, ooohing & awwwwing. Weird!

Thread: River as a boys name?
March 31st, 2014 11:26 PM #11
River is very handsome. I prefer it on boys.
Although it's one of my GPs, this thread has got me thinking about it as a real possibility. If you like it, go for it!"Walter. That's good. I've never known a little kid named Walter. It seems like an old man's name, but I guess you have to start somewhere."

When Marian Hossa scored the 1,000th point of his career Thursday night, my first inclination was to put him in the Hockey Hall of Fame. After all, he already has two Stanley Cups (and possibly more to come) and he's one of the best two-way players of his era.
Good enough for me. But then again, the Hall of Fame should be for the truly special players, not just the very good ones. And that's where the decision around Hossa becomes a little more vexing.
Is Hossa a very good player, or truly a great player? As THN senior editor and Hall of Fame expert Brian Costello points out, 1,000 points is now more of a milestone than a Hall of Fame barometer. And there are currently 19 Hall of Fame eligible players who scored 1,000 points during their careers and who are not in the hall. With 466 career goals so far, Hossa is a shoo-in for the 500 mark and that's where it starts to get a little more interesting. There are only seven players who have scored 500 who are eligible for the Hall of Fame and are not in there. Read more

Something like this maybe?
Insert Live Web Pages in your PowerPoint Presentations
We have just set up our new weather station which allows live data to be placed on our website. I would really like to put the same data into a power point that runs in the entrance to our school. Its a continually looping power point and the computer is hooked up to the network and internet. The data cam be got at in two ways. I have an application that uploads a .png image to our school website, and there is also a text / data file that I can manipulate in VB.
So can I add the info / picture to a power point so that it changes every time it shows?
Could you not just create a webpage that is updated and then hit f11 and full screen or - if you create an HTML page set up xibo on the machine and use xibo to display the webpage
This is an a looped non interactive presentation. It just sits there all day showing the same power point.
It seems to work, I just need to tune it a bit to display properly.
