Scott D. Pierce: NOVA special: Vaccinate or you risk the lives of children
About 10 percent of American children are not immunized, and PBS' NOVA makes one thing clear — their parents are not only endangering their children's lives, but the lives of others.
And for almost no reason whatsoever. There is, for example, absolutely no evidence that vaccinations cause autism.
"Those who choose not to vaccinate their children are making a bad and misinformed choice that puts not only their children at risk, but those with whom their children come in contact at risk," said Dr. Paul Offit, chief of the Division of Infectious Diseases at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. "Yes, it's a terrible decision."
The report, titled "Vaccines — Calling the Shots" (Wednesday, 8 p.m., PBS/Ch. 7), talks to parents who have made this "terrible decision." And it's not without sympathy for them.
But it also makes it clear they are acting on bad information, ignoring facts in favor of emotion.
"I don't think that parents are stupid," said Alison Singer, president of the Autism Science Foundation and herself the mother of a child with autism. "I think they come at this from a place of love, and they are so often devastated by the fact that, if they have a child with autism, that that child is suffering. And they want answers.
"Calling the Shots" doesn't dwell on it, but it points to the completely discredited 1998 article by a British doctor that linked autism and the MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) vaccine. It wasn't even a study; it was a report on 12 children.
"Labs all over the world tried to replicate those findings, and no one could replicate them," Singer said. "Eventually, it was found that he falsified the data … but the damage was done because, once you put that scary idea in someone's head, it's very hard to get rid of it.... Parents were still afraid."
That's in no small part because of the efforts of people like Jenny McCarthy, who remains convinced that MMR caused her son's autism but has campaigned against immunizations.
"Jenny McCarthy has done a lot of harm and continues to do a lot of harm," Singer said. "And when confronted with the data, her response is, 'I don't care what the data show. I know in my heart that when my son received the MMR, the light left his eyes, and he became autistic.' Those anecdotes are very powerful."
So are the images of a 7-week-old baby with whooping cough in "Calling the Shots." So are the facts about children dying from preventable diseases.
"There's not a year that goes by at our hospital … where a child does not die of a vaccine preventable disease," Offit said. "Go into a hospital and watch the child over a seven- or eight-day period slowly fall off a cliff with their parents standing next to them. It makes you a passionate advocate for the vaccine."

"One of the best dutch apple pies you'll eat!"
Serving Size: 1 (169 g)
Servings Per Recipe: 8
"This is the most AMAZING apple pie recipe in the world! I've made it for three different groups of people so far, and it was gone in hours. I decided to use part Fuji apples (sweet) and part Granny smith apples (tart). The combination was perfect!"
"WOW!!!! I used honey crisp apples (my personal favorite) and it was DELISH!!"
"Made this for our Christmas dinner and everyone loved it. Used granny smith apples and followed the recipe to T. Will definitely make again and again."
"What a fantastic recipe! I have followed this recipe several times and I just love it. Since I am a huge fan of cinnamon I added some to the topping as well, and used "sugar in the raw" for some more texture. Absolutely fabulous!"
"I bake quite a lot to share with my coworkers, we are some serious snackers. I always receive glowing reviews of my Tiramisu. My Baklava is another hit, especially made with honey from a coworker%u2019s hives. Even my addictive oatmeal peanut butter cookies vanish.
But this pie, OMG! You%u2019d think all that other stuff was awful compared to this pie. So far I%u2019ve made four of them in the last three weeks (Its apples season). Talk about people dropping everything the moment word spreads I%u2019ve brought pie. I%u2019ve been offered money to bake them for Christmas dinners. In case I wasn%u2019t clear, this pie is awesome!
Talk about easy, have no fear of being able to get great results, with very little effort.
Usually I like to make my own pastry and crusts but I was in a hurry the first time and just used a pillsbury refrigerated pie crust. They come two to a box and with eight apples you%u2019re all set to make two complete pies. People went so crazy over this with the store bought crust why make it more complicated and mess with perfection.
I mostly use Rome apples which hold up well, and the flavor develops when baked. The first time I made the exact recipe. While everyone went crazy I felt it was a little sweet for my taste, and in the subsequent pies I cut the granulated sugar for ? to ? cup in the pie and left the topping as is. I was happy with the result and everyone else agreed it was better with the sugar reduction, which lets more of the %u201Capple%u201D come through. If you like your pie sweeter or are using a tarter apple, like Granny Smith, more sugar might be appropriate.
I usually drop a crust shield on about 20 minutes in. Great recipe, thanks!!"
"This was very good - I think the brown sugar made all the difference. Thanks for a great recipe."
"This is an excellent pie, just as it is. Thanks for putting it out there in cyberworld for all of us to enjoy!"
"This recipe is awesome. Perfect amount of sugar for tart granny smith apples. The family loved it. I will be making this again...SOON!"
"Delicious!! I ended up using about 7 cups of apples in a deep dish pie pan. I kept all other measurements the same and it still came out fabulous! I served it warm, with vanilla ice cream. (My boyfriend doesn't think pie should exist without ice cream!) I sprinkled extra cinnamon on top of the pie before baking, but I love cinnamon! Thank you for such an easy, tasty recipe!"
"So good! This pie set up perfectly. I cut back on the sugar as others suggested. We ate it warm out of the oven with vanilla ice cream. Family loved it!"
"Hands down the best apple pie I've eaten or made!! My family went wild for it and my 3 year old finished a huge piece-which never happens. I used a butter crust for the first time and we loved it. Tastes like a cross between pie crust and a butter cookie. The pie flavors were perfect-not too sweet-not too plain. Perfect. Thanks so much!"
"This pie had an oustanding flavor but the filling was a bit too sweet for my taste. I baked it again and reduced the sugar in the filling to 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 1/4 cup brown sugar and it was just the right sweetness for me. Delish!!!!"
"Absolutely Amazing!! I hate baking...but had so many granny Smith apples to put to good use.. This pie (it made two) was the best apple pie my family had ever had! And....I made it!! Woooo Hoooooo!!!"
"The ONLY Dutch Apple Pie recipe I will ever make from now on. Omit the pie crust and it becomes the best ever Apple Crisp. This amazingly wonderful pie also freezes well, uncooked, so when I make it, I usually make two -- one to pop in the oven and one wrapped in a double layer of plastic wrap to enjoy another day when I'm short on time."
"my rating is with a huge reduction in the amount of sugar (cut down by half). I added a few walnuts in the crumble topping and that got great reviews as well. i had to bake mine for quite longer than the recipe called for, VERY simple recipe for a VERY delicious pie! I've already make this many times and will make it many more, I'm sure! Gets stellar reviews every time! Thanks!"
"BEST APPLE PIE EVER!!!!!!!!!!! I made the pie exactly as recipe called for and it wasn't too sweet, nor too tart. Note: it worked very well with Granny Smith apples. Make THIS pie, you will not regret it!!!"
"This was my first time making a pie. It was the best pie I have ever eaten. We ate it for breakfast it was so good. I will be making this for our Easter dessert."
"Absolutely perfect! I used all sugar substitutes instead of regular sugars with no change to the flavor or browning. Now I need to hide what is left from myself so I don't dive in before the guys come home! Thank you for this wonderful recipe."
"this pie is the bomb...I used 8 cups of apples (cortland and granny smith) and added nuts(walnuts and macademia) to crumb topping..Most requested pie I have every made"
"Used this as my very first homemade apple pie recipe. Amazing and simple. I had no lemon juice so I subbed the same amount of white vinegar and it made no difference in taste or presentation. Thank you for sharing, I have an apple pie recipe now."

I'm using passportjs on my server for authentication, and I'm wondering if any value gets set on the client side that tells the client whether or not they are logged in. If not, how would you go about giving the client this information? Does the client have access to information about sessions?
- Different response headers, but sending same file on the server side, and then looking at the response header on the client side to set a "loggedIn" value.
- Sending a query after page load that checks whether or not the user is logged in, and then sets a value.
- Something else?

It's becoming a crisis in India; it's so bad, in
fact, that the government is asking the private sector for help:
non-metropolitan airports just don't attract the kinds of
government workers to management, that the government thinks it
The Airports Authority of India is currently working on a list
of airports where government salaries aren't enticing enough, so
that private managers may be recruited. Some aren't so "remote,"
either, like the resort portals at Kochi and Gaya.
Part of the problem is airport revenue-generation. Indian
airports rely almost entirely on fees levied on aviation, directly;
additional revenue streams are either prohibited, or ignored -- or
It has
been noted that even large hubs like Delhi get just over 20% of
their revenues directly from the aircraft activities; worldwide,
that figure approximates 70%.
Sure, parking generates some cash; the cafeteria is a small
source; and there are even a handful of shops in the biggest
airports -- but commercial development must come, as air travelers
need the facilities, but cannot continue to face ever-higher direct
ticket costs.
In the smaller airports, where the Airports Authority is against
the wall for funding, it's likely a consulting study now up for bid may result in the
most-rapid and most-radical changes. Remodeling the facilities will
be the easy part; convincing travelers to do their shopping at the
airport mall may be a culture-change challenge.

Ready for, ready for, ready for take off
Its good news all around this week in the aviation industry, with Emirates on the look out to hire, Etihad signing multi-billion dollar deals, and in-flight catering on the increase.
March 9, 2011 4:01 by Eva Fernandes
Etihad billion dollar Engine Alliance deal
This week also saw the signing of a billion dollar agreement between Etihad Airways and Engine Alliance, (which is a venture between GE and Pratt & Whitney). The two companies signed a $1.5 billion deal for the purchase of GP7200 engines to power Etihad's 10 Airbus A380 aircrafts. By signing its agreement with Engine Alliance, Etihad joins Emirates, Air France, Korean Air, Air Austral who currently operate or plan to operate their A380's with the GP7200 engines. James Hogan, the chief executive of Etihad told The National "The GP7200 engines, provided by the Engine Alliance in this agreement, will offer significant fuel efficiencies and cost optimisation for Etihad's first Airbus A380s when they enter our fleet from 2014." Perhaps more importantly they'll help the planes get off the runway, too.
Etihad ditches Dreamliners
Etihad has also ditched its plans to some of Boeing's heavily delayed 787 Dreamliners. Instead the airline has opted to buy three 777-300ERs. Etihad, who had plan to buy four 787 Dreamliners, bought the three 777's for $852.3 million before standard industry discounts. This move from the company isn't totally unexpected, after all the Dreamliner is speculated to be released some time this year, three years after it was initially supposed to be launched. An Etihad spokeswoman told the National "Etihad has simply exercised its options. We are utilising option positions to take delivery of three B777s in 2013 and have adjusted our order for B787s accordingly."

Uber is breaking bad
Uber has built a great service. Why do they feel the need to use dirty tricks to succeed?
Tim O'Reilly has said that Uber is an example of designing for how the world ought to be. Their app works well, their cars are clean, their drivers are pleasant, and they usually arrive quickly. But more goes into the experience of a company than just an app. Corporate behavior is also part of the company's design; perhaps not as noticeable as their Android or iPhone app, but a very real part. That's where Uber falls down. They have increasingly been a bad actor, on many counts:
- Coercing their black car (Uber) drivers into driving for the low cost UberX service, which is much less profitable.
- Being disingenuous about the economics of driving for them. Justin Singer does an excellent job of deconstructing their claims. $90,000/year for a 40-hour work week? Think $40K. For a 70-hour work week.
- Badmouthing a competitor (Lyft) that is raising capital. As Fred Wilson says, this practice may be common, but it's unethical and unproductive.
- Predatory ("surge") pricing during peak hours, as much as seven times normal prices.
- Playing fast and loose with drivers' background checks.
- And now one of their senior VPs has suggested researching and exposing the private lives of reporters who criticize them. He's apologized, and said he never meant anything of the sort. Right. It's not what you apologize for that counts; it's not doing stuff you need to apologize for in the first place.
I could go on (advertising hot female drivers, abuses of their privacy policy, and more), but I won't. You get the point. This is #GamerGate, but with a $17 billion valuation behind it. Read more…

In this week's Radar Podcast episode, I talk with Mary Treseler, director of strategic content at O'Reilly, about our new investigation into experience design and how it's shaping our future. Treseler notes a couple of key factors driving the investigation:
"What I'm seeing here and what I've been watching is the focus move from technology to design. Experience design or interaction design has always been around, but there are a couple of factors that are really pushing it into the spotlight. One being that we're seeing more widespread support of design as a corporate asset, as something that could be a competitive advantage to businesses. The other is the Internet of Things, looking at the convergence of the digital and physical worlds, and what that means for designers and how they can impact the future."
We need open models, not just open data
If you really want to understand the effect data is having, you need the models.
Writing my post about AI and summoning the demon led me to re-read a number of articles on Cathy O'Neil's excellent mathbabe blog. I highlighted a point Cathy has made consistently: if you're not careful, modelling has a nasty way of enshrining prejudice with a veneer of "science" and "math."
Cathy has consistently made another point that's a corollary of her argument about enshrining prejudice. At O'Reilly, we talk a lot about open data. But it's not just the data that has to be open: it's also the models. (There are too many must-read articles on Cathy's blog to link to; you'll have to find the rest on your own.)
You can have all the crime data you want, all the real estate data you want, all the student performance data you want, all the medical data you want, but if you don't know what models are being used to generate results, you don't have much. Read more…
The robotic worm
Does the way a brain is wired determine how we think and behave? Recent research points to a resounding yes.

One of the age-old questions has been whether the way a brain is wired, negating other attributes such as intracellular systems biology, will give rise to how we think and how we behave. We are not at the point yet to answer that question regarding the human brain. However, by using the well-mapped connectome of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans, shown above), we were able to answer this question as a resounding yes, at least for simpler animals. Using a simple robot (a Lego Mindstorms EV3) and connecting sensors on the robot to stimulate specific simulated sensory neurons in an artificial connectome, and condensing worm muscle excitation to move a left and right motor on the robot, we observed worm-like behaviors in the robot based purely on environmental factors.

The future of food
We could soon have lab-grown hamburgers, not in the $300,000 range but in the $10 range — would you eat one?
Editor's note: this is an excerpt from the latest edition of BioCoder; it is republished here with permission. Get your free copy of BioCoder Fall 2014 here."So I had an accident."
That was the call I got from a scientist entrepreneur friend of mine, John Schloendorn, the CEO of Gene and Cell Technologies. He'd been working on potential regenerative medicine therapies and tinkering with bioreactors to grow human cell lines. He left the lab for the weekend, and then something went wrong with one of his bioreactors: something got stuck in it.
"So, I was wondering what happened with my bioreactor and how this big chunk of plastic had gotten in there and ruined my cytokine production run. I was pulling it out, and I thought it was was weird because it was floppy. I threw it in the garbage. A little later, after thinking about it, I realized it wasn't plastic and pulled it out of the garbage." Read more…
Connecting the microcosmos and the macro world
Christina Agapakis explores the microbiological matrix that binds everything from pecorino to people.
This is part of our investigation into synthetic biology and bioengineering. For more, download the new BioCoder Fall 2014 issue here.
Good luck trying to jam Christina Agapakis into any kind of vocational box. Her CV cites disparate accomplishments as a scientist, writer, and artist — and teacher. Imparting highly technical information in a compelling, even revelatory way seems part of, well, her DNA. She can't not do it. Moreover, her career arc represents a syncretic impulse that characterizes her general outlook on life.
"A friend is starting a group called Doctors without Disciplinary Borders, and I'm joining it," says Agapakis. "It captures the spirit of my work pretty well."
Agapakis is first and foremost a synthetic biologist and a microbiologist, but she's not particularly happy with the way the synthetic biology narrative has played out. She thinks biocoding is inadequately explained by its practitioners and deeply misunderstood by the lay public, raising excessive expectations and misunderstandings about what synthetic biology can do. The discipline's message would be better communicated, she believes, if metaphors grounded in biology rather than computers were employed. Read more…

Hi: 8° Lo:6°
By Rob George Friday 22 June 2012 Updated: 29/06 14:53
A SIX-YEAR fight to secure a dedicated dementia care wing for Droitwich residents has come to an end with the opening of a new unit in the town.
Staff at Dorset House care home were joined by civic dignitaries for the opening and naming of its new dementia unit, the Magnolia Suite, at a ceremony last Thursday (June 14).
The opening marked the end of a long campaign by AgeCare, the charity which runs the home, which first floated plans for a secure dementia care wing for 30 residents in the grounds of Dorset House in 2006.
Kind-hearted staff members even began raising cash towards the estimated £3.7million needed to fund the project but plans were shelved in July 2009 due to the economic downturn.
Despite the axe, the home's management team refused to give up and home manager Emma Miles proposed plans for a smaller unit which involved bringing the home's derelict manager's house back to life.
Funders for the first project were notified of its cancellation and asked if they would consider funding the new scheme.
Re-using the empty building saw the creation of a new 'Administration Centre' with a residents-relatives meeting room, training room and staff room.
This left a ground floor area free to be transformed into a dementia wing with five en-suite bedrooms for residential residents with dementia, a communal lounge, dining room, reminiscence room and wet room.
The Magnolia Suite was formally opened by AgeCare president Lord Strathalmond in a ceremony also attended by Droitwich mayor Coun Anne Taft.
Dorset House manager Gence Mekkunnel took Lord Strathalmond and Coun Taft on a tour of the new suite and the landscaped garden where it is situated.
He said: "This has been an amazing project to have been part of, which although on a smaller scale than the original plans, the new wing of Dorset House – named the Magnolia Suite, by Dorset House residents – will give the very best care.
Coun Taft told The Standard: "I was very impressed with the five-bedroomed dementia wing, which includes amongst it facilities, a pod relating back to the 1950s and a recreational room with kitchen facilities.
"It is a sad fact these days that so many people in our community are suffering with dementia but units, like this new wing at Dorset House, help to provide them with a better quality of life," she added.
AgeCare Chief Executive, Julie Fuller said: "AgeCare is rising to the challenge of dementia and is a beacon in the medical and nursing care of people living with this disease."

Any truth to this?
- im_nomad Feb 14, 2008 03:12 PM
I generally don't have much time for these warning e-mails...but this was forwarded to me today. I would imagine most items are at risk for such a thing however.
Oh, man! Why did you share that with me? I love lemon in my water or iced tea, but now . . .
Yet, it makes me think that if, at the restaurants they went to, had all these germs on lemons, and I think they were blaming not using tongs, then don't these places have more violations than just the lemons? If your hands are dirty, lemons are not the only things that would pass on the germs.
re: chowser
Absolutely. Germs are everywhere. The human body is adapted to function with a certain level of "filth" and too few bacteria are almost as bad as too many.
actually, what i find interesting is the researcher's assertion that the bacteria come from employees' hands. my suspicion has always been that restaurants don't bother to wash the exterior of the lemons before cutting and using them...after all the handling they've gone through to get there, you can be sure they're teeming with organisms BEFORE the restaurant employees pick them up.
i scrub the outside of my citrus before using at home..and i stopped ordering slices in my drinks at restaurants a long time ago.
but if you realy want to talk about a disturbing health concern, you should see the video about the glasses in hotel rooms.
re: goodhealthgourmet
I've worked in a lot of restaurants & seen very, very few wash produce. It boggles the mind...
re: meatn3
Yeah, it seems they'll only wash certain "dirty" produce like spinach. That's why my mom always preferred us eating at home because she said that restaurants don't care as much about cleanliness and health as much as one would at home.
Goodhealthgourmet, I have seen that hotel room glass video. Pretty gross. I've stayed at hotels twice since I've seen it and scrubbed the hell out of my glasses before I used them (and put my toothbrush away as well).
re: meatn3
My daughter works in a resto and tells me to NEVER eat the baked potato skin as it is never washed!!
re: "if there were a serious danger from lemons we'd all be sick long ago".......well from some things i've read, most stomach bugs are mistakenly attributed to virus' but in fact it's stuff like this that we don't necessarily know about.
germs are everywhere, and i know that if i constantly worried about everything, i'd probably never eat out or for that matter go anywhere. Just with alot of the stuff like the spinach or the strawberries etc....this wouldn't surprise me either.
for that matter, i hate slapping my fruit and veg up on the supermarket conveyor belt after someone's just checked through all their steaks, chicken etc...and the stuff's probably leaked on the belt.
re: im_nomad
I wouldn't be surprised if there more gastrointestinal issues were due to poor food handling than we suspect. However, I'd put it more to food handling (we see on these boards alone how many people partially cook meat to finish later, leave meat on counters all night, leave meat overnight or for days, leave things for over a week and eat it) than a slice of lemon. I'd worry more about those food handling issues that possible micro-organisms in lemon. There are far too many "scares" the media likes to put out. I read an interview with a former editor of a womens' magazine who said they encouraged scare stories to keep people buying their magazines so they can be "safe."
re: MakingSense
I noticed that as well. But that was the reporter's comment, not the scientist's.
re: Morton the Mousse
These things always make you wonder though. When a reporter can make such a gross error on simple math, how good can the quality of their overall reporting be? Part of the job is taking a lot of material, evaluating it and putting it together to arrive at a conclusion. In this case, that there is a risk.
This story was fairly simple, but reporters frequently do much more complex stories than this. No science or math background?
The thing is, the germs are there, but at no point do they tell you how many germs need to be present in order to make you sick. The answer is rarely "one." Not to mention, the ice submersion can actually help kill certain germs.
The local news will trot out these stories every so often and everyone will panic for a few weeks until all goes back to normal. Well, unless you're an acquaintance of mine who still won't eat green onions or medium-rare beef due to news stories from a few years ago. (It is PAINFUL to wait for his "well-done" burger to get done at certain places; since most establishments want the food to come out at the same time, we suffer while his burger goes through the inferno of inedibility just so he can be assured he has no mad cow disease...)
If you were to stop and think about a million things, you'd probably never eat a thing.
re: Stephmo
" we suffer while his burger goes through the inferno of inedibility just so he can be assured he has no mad cow disease...)"
Hmm, I could be mistaken, but I didn't think heat would "kill" a prion, the causative agent of mad cow disease. Can anyone with more recent microbiologic training confirm?
Now E. coli, that's another bug altogether. Much more frequent, much more likely, very unpleasant, possibly deadly. I suspect more people die from E. coli than mad cow. I love my beef rare, and I don't mind risking food poisoning, but I do feel that it is reasonable to eat well-cooked burgers in most places, unless you know they have ground your beef from a single piece of meat (much less risk of microbial contamination if your meat comes from a single cow than if your beef has been ground from hundreds of cows). That being said, I have probably broken that rule a few times...
re: moh
Oh - I believe I forgot to mention the he's "insane" part. Yes, the well-done is for mad-cow. E-coli was a temporary switch over to chicken. I believe he hasn't had spinach since the outbreaks...or peanut butter. He only uses the broiler at home because grilling causes cancer...
Acquaintance is the key-word. He's not really invited to dine out anymore. Picky eaters are one thing (we have one of those in our lunch circle), but the whole, "you'll die if you don't make sure this and this and this and this" takes place was just humiliating. We couldn't even mention certain foods for fear of another lecture that he'd picked up from his mother. Basically, if they hear one thing horrible, it's fact.
I'm willing to risk the odds for a good meal and a lot less aggravation.
re: Stephmo
He's got it backwards: thorough cooking will kill E. coli, but not Mad Cow -- for that you'd have to give up beef.
re: Ruth Lafler
Yes, that is what I thought. Like I said, mad cow is pretty rare, I think the risk of getting mad cow is much lower than being in a fatal car accident.
That being said, Stephmo should invite his insane acquaintance out for burgers one more time, and watch his head implode when he is told that well-done beef does nothing to reduce your risk of mad cow...
re: moh
The risk of getting Mad Cow and the risk of being in a fatal car accident are nowhere near the same. Over 30,000 people are killed in car accidents every year. I'm not aware of *one* death from Mad Cow in the US. In other words, for all practical purposes the risk of getting Mad Cow is zero.
re: Stephmo
February is television sweeps month.
The ratings in this month determine what they can charge for advertising time until the next sweeps period.
The higher the ratings, the higher the rates.
If you notice, all the local news shows present their most hair raising stories at this time of year. It's for ratings.
Is it true? Probably a little... but with lots of breathless hype attached.
re: Stephmo
Send your friend the following:
re: sleepycat
Do you think someone who is careless with lemons is somehow more careful with the rest of the food she's getting for you?
re: chowser
oh, unfortunately, that is a good point, chowser. otoh, i have not ever gotten sick from a resto meal ("issues" due to bad lettuce bits, yes, or too much oil on the kee mao noodles...) ;-Q
re: chowser
Probably not. Point taken. In my defense, that happened when I was in my 20's. If that happened now I would probably just leave.
re: chowser
One point that might make people feel better - quite often the lemon cutting is a side job for the servers, not the cooks. Most servers have not been trained about food safety in the same manner a back of the house person (hopefully) has been. A lot of servers try to get a head start on their side jobs so they can get out asap after their last customer. This leads to starting the lemons, stopping to check on the table, perhaps clearing dirty dishes, going back to the lemons...Many restos don't have a handy sink for hand washing by the dish-pit, so a less than diligent server might omit that step...
re: meatn3
Ummm, I'm not sure this point makes me feel better about the lemons....
I guess that doesn't surprise me.
I recently got one of those citrus juicers that looks like a giant garlic press. When I press my limes, it leaves a disgusting film of wax and dirt on the inside of the juicer which is really hard to clean. I have to wash the juicer in hot water and scrub for a few minutes to get the gunk off of the inside.
Seems to me that the gunk is a billboard advertisement for the dirt, wax, bacteria, etc. that coats many of the fruits and veggies we buy at the store. Yuk.

Rush Plan to Hit the Road Next Spring
To celebrate 40 years of making music with drummer Neil Peart, Rush plan to hit the road next year for a new tour.
To celebrate 40 years of making music with drummer Neil Peart, Rush plan to hit the road next year for a new tour.
Did you squirm through Metallica's 'Some Kind of Monster' documentary?
With the band's first new album in 20 years on the horizon, Pink Floyd fans are living what seemed until recently like an impossible dream.
According to vocalist Ozzy Osbourne, Sabbath will disband after one more album and touring cycle.
The Grateful Dead will celebrate their 50th anniversary next year, and they're marking the occasion with a film executive produced by Martin Scorsese and billed as "their first official career-spanning documentary."
Pink Floyd continued on for years after Roger Waters quit the band in 1985, still enjoy platinum sales and sold-out tours even without the creative input of the band's longtime guiding hand.
The Kinks' hoped-for 50th anniversary reunion seems to have hit a snag.
The beautiful fall weather continues to bless us here in East Texas and this weekend we're expecting temperatures to be a bit higher than normal and there's going to be plenty of sunshine available for all of the events happening around East Texas this weekend.
Kurt Cobain loved the walls of Krsto and Maria Novoselic's home so much that he placed the microphone where he could examine the walls while he performed.
Fans will get their first take-home opportunity to hear Yes in concert with current lead singer Jon Davison on the forthcoming 'Like It Is: Yes at the Bristol Hippodrome.'
Bob Dylan growls his way through a version of John Lee Hooker's 'Tupelo Blues,' as the latest advance track surfaces from the upcoming 'The Basement Tapes Complete: The Bootleg Series Vol. 11.'
As Black Sabbath start work on a new record, Ozzy Osbourne says he'd consider a reunion with the band's original drummer -- but only on one condition.

Merit Pay Will Improve N.Y.âs Schools
October 24, 2007
Marcus A. Winters
IN WHAT IS BEING HAILED as a dramatic move forward in education reform, New York City adopted a limited performance-pay program for its teachers last week.
The plan, which was supported by the citys teachers union, will provide bonuses, to be distributed among teachers at low-performing schools that improve student achievement. Though the program is limited by its focus on schoolwide rather than teacher-targeted bonuses, research suggests that this reform holds promise for improving the nations largest public school district.
New York is the latest of several public school systems to experiment with a performance-pay program. Several similar programs are currently operating in areas as diverse as Florida, Minnesota, Denver, Nashville and Little Rock.
Under the current system, teachers salaries are nearly entirely determined by the number of years they have spent in the classroom and the number of advanced degrees that they have earned. Alas, a wide body of research shows that these two numbers are unrelated to students academic performance. The result is a compensation system that gives teachers an incentive to acquire degrees that do not make them better teachers and to stay in the classroom even if they are ineffective.
Performance pay provides school systems with a way to reward excellent teachers. These programs directly tie at least part of a teachers salary to student performance, as measured by standardized tests. Unlike the current, input-based system, performance-pay programs reward teachers for achieving the outcome in which parents and the public are most interested student learning. These systems can encourage teachers to improve their classroom performance rather than acquire meaningless degrees.
Though we still have much to learn about the impact of performance pay on student achievement, so far the evidence is quite positive. My colleagues at the University of Arkansas and I recently found that a performance-pay program in Little Rock led to substantial improvements in students math proficiency. David Figlio and Lawrence Kenney have evaluated the impact of performance pay in school districts nationwide and found that it led to academic benefits.
However, though research suggests that New Yorks program could be a step in the right direction, the design of the policy could limit its benefits. In particular, the program will bestow bonuses on schools whose students make academic improvements, and then a committee within each school will determine how to allocate the bonuses among teachers. The trouble with this system is that, unlike a program that rewards individual teachers for the gains made by their students, it may not give teachers incentives to improve their productivity. Likely, there will be pressure within schools to allocate bonuses evenly among teachers, regardless of whether all the teachers in a school are actually making a difference in their students lives.
Not only could providing bonuses to schools, rather than directly to teachers, reward some undeserving teachers, it could also fail to reward high-performing teachers who are unfortunately teaching in unresponsive schools. In even our poorest-performing schools there are undoubtedly some teachers who are making a positive difference in their students lives. Under the New York system, however, a teachers students could be making large academic gains, but the teacher wouldnt receive a performance-pay bonus unless the entire school was making similar improvements. A better system would reward each excellent teacher regardless of her colleagues performance.
Despite its limitations, New Yorks new performance-pay program could greatly improve its struggling public schools. The program better aligns the incentives of teachers with those of students, parents, and the public.
We will have to wait and see if the performance-pay experiment will be as positive in New York as it has been elsewhere. But the evidence so far suggests that providing teachers with bonuses for student achievement could significantly improve student learning.

Zednik - Matthias - McLean
Stewart - Campbell - Dvorak
Bouwmeester - Boynton
Ballard - Allen
Skrastins - Van Ryn
Scratch: Welch, Murphy, Peltonen, Belak, Stumpel
That is without any improvements from FA's... And I would love to wash Stumpel, Murphy and Pelt, please do it Jacques !
And you know what... I like this squad, maybe too young but I like the potential. If we start the season with this line-up, I'll predict a ROY-season for Michael Frolik ! If this guy is trusted in an offensive-role, he'll be dynamite !!!
And I said it last year, I thought we had the best group of defensemen in the SouthEast division (that's something to say about the quality of Eastern defences !), and I'll say it this year, we may have the best defence in the East... You could argue about the Canadiens...
Bouwmeester will have a great year with Nick Boynton being the policeman at his side, Ballard will fulfill his potential as a powerplay-quaterback since he has been that his whole career, and Bryan Allen is likely to be a fixture in our top-4 for the lenght of his contract. Then we let number 5 and 6 as a battle come training camp !
On offense.. Well, we'll see ! But those Czech kids have enough in the tank IMO to stay a little relax. We won't be an offensive-juggernaut that's for sure (well as of now, waiting for July 1st !
), but we'll be one pain in the ass the whole night, the whole season... And that's 96 hockey !
What I didn't like in the Jokinen trade, was that we didn't got back a great prospect ! You know, I would have loved to get our hands on a first pick, or even a couple of their high seconds, or Keith Yandle. Nothing... That's why I'm a little bit upset, because as a team in transition like ours, we were just a great great prospect away of being ONE of the future franchises in the new NHL, that's my thought !
But I'll enjoy the summer, and I'll digest this trade with time... Next year will be THE most important year in Panthers history !
Edit: Also I remember a quote I saw that said "never underestimate a Peter Deboer's team", so I won't ! I'll underestimate them next draft !
I think you have the lines mixed up, though, I can't see Boynton on the top pairing at all, especially since he was bottom pairing in Phoenix. I don't want Bouw having to recover for his defense partner like he did with Hill. Also, you don't get a guy like Belak and then scratch him. He's an important part of this team, especially with Carolina getting Hordichuk. With Boynton, Ballard, Campbell, and Belak here, this team won't pushed around like it has in the past, and Vokoun won't be run.
I think the lines could be:
McLean-Kreps-Zednik(Or flip Zednik or McLean with Olesz)
Boynton-Welch/Ryno/Murphy/Ellerby(who could move up a line, too)/etc.
I'm scared to rely on the kids, but apparently Jacques' plan was to go with them, which is why he wanted Deboer so bad.
One thing we've seen in Matthias is that the kid improves at every level he gets to, and quickly. The NHL is obviously a whole new ballgame, but he's hungry and knows how to get the garbage goal. With Frolik at his side and possibly Olesz, he could really do some damage. I don't know much aout Frolik, except that everyone's high on him. We'll see what pans out.
So you're saying there's a chance!

Acer Aspire T180-black screen sometimes

Posted August 16, 2011 at 2:28AM
Acer Aspire T180 Desktop Windows Vista Home Premium Memory 2 GB Anti virus software: AVG Free BIOS R01-B1 Release Date Dec 29, 2006
Intermittently when we boot the computer it gives us the logon screen, then we logon, and sometimes it works fine, then sometimes after a little bit it gives a black screen, and the disk drive light is off, the power light stays on. I have to power it off by holding the power button. Then I turn it back on and tell it to start windows normally and it might work just fine or give the same problem, but generally after 1-3 times then it works fine. It seems to be getting worse.
The Acer site has a BIOS version R01-C0 12/09/2008
I have been wondering if I need to update the BIOS. I see how and where to download it, but am unsure how to install it. I do not understand the directions .
What do you think my problem is and how do I fix it? Thanks,

Try the following to discharge and reset your laptop first.
Please remove all removable parts like DVD, exteral USB device(if any), remove battery and unplug the AC adapter, then press the power button over 15 seconds do not let go. Then, connect the AC adapter only and power on the laptop again.
Hope this helps! Bill Tech Manager Wptinc

It is a desktop, not a laptop. Is there a way I should do it for a desktop? The only thing we have plugged in are speakers (which are generally off), printer (which is generally off), Ethernet, mouse (not usb) and keyboard (not usb), and the monitor. Thanks

Ab-Soul - Empathy
Artist: Ab-Soul
Producer: Skhye Hutch
Album: Control System
Avg Rating: 3.9 ( 8 votes )
Need a shoulder to cry on? Ab-Soul's your man. Of course, if you happen to be an attractive woman, you're likely to get a little more than Empathy from the Top Dawg Entertainment repper. Accompanied by the official visuals of Jerome D., this newly-released single sees the West Coast spitter comforting an old flame over Skyhe Hutch's woozy synth production. Vocalists Alori Jah and JaVonte' lend a hand on the guest tip. For more, check out Ab's Control System LP when it arrives on the 'net next Friday, May 11.

Sometimes we feel so much stress and pain that we get caught up in our negative thoughts, and it seems like the slogan "Life is Good" is just a cruel joke.

Town attorney wants Comp Plan revisions
Date: July 7, 2010
by: Kurt Schultheis | City Editor
It's no secret town attorney David Persson thinks changes need to be made to the town's Comprehensive Plan, which acts as a vision for the town's future development.
Last week, Persson shared with The Longboat Observer his future wishes for the town now that the Longboat Key Club and Resort's Islandside renovation-and-expansion project has been approved by the commission.
"I have been encouraging the Town Commission to look at the Comprehensive Plan for some time now," Persson said. "It's important to look back and see how this process can work better in the future."
The town's current Comprehensive Plan, adopted in 1984, worked well for many years, Persson said.
"But, when we first discussed the (Islandside) project three or more years ago, that's when it became clear something more specific would be beneficial to everyone," Persson said. "Until that time, Longboat Key really thought it was built out, and no one really thought about the scope and magnitude of redevelopment that could occur."
Persson says the Comprehensive Plan needs to be more specific in terms of the town's future redevelopment needs.
"That would make it easier for the applicant, and it would make the planning director's job easier," Persson said.
But, more importantly, Persson believes the public-hearing process that will most likely occur at both the Planning and Zoning Board and commission levels will give the town and its citizens multiple opportunities to express how they want to see the island progress in the future.
"The process to amend the Comprehensive Plan is one that involves lots of participation and discussion about the future of the town," Persson said.
The process, which must be approved by the state's Department of Community Affairs, could take years to complete, Persson said.
"Ten years ago, we talked about Longboat Key in the same breath as West Palm Beach and Naples," Persson said. "We no longer do that, and this process will help find out who our comparables are."
