From text that is too small to read, to user interfaces that do not offer keyboard navigation options, users with special needs face a lot of challenges when trying to access websites they are interested in. Google Chrome team believe that extensions can complement the work the team is doing to make Google Chrome more accessible and can help users with disabilities turn the web from an often unwelcoming place to an environment they can truly enjoy.
Tag Archives: Chrome
Google Chrome now support Adobe Flash Player
In Google's most recent stable release of Google Chrome, they talked about beta-testing Adobe Flash Player integration into Chrome. They've enable this integration by default in the stable channel of Chrome. To read more about this integration, check out the Chromium blog.
In testing Flash Player integration into Chrome, the Chrome team admittedly spent many, many fun hours with a few of our favorite Flash-based indie games. So as a side project, they teamed up with a few creative folks to build Chrome FastBall, a Flash-based game built on top of the YouTube platform.
Fifa – Chrome Extension
Sore throats from yelling after every goal. Red eyes from waking up too early or staying up too late to watch a game. Sick leaves multiplying during important matches. It's official: Football fever has spread around the globe, as the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ is already underway.
For those of you who are football fans, kick your game-watching up a notch with the FIFA.com Chrome extension that will help you stay up-to-date with the latest news and scores from South Africa. Most importantly, the extension notifies you when a match is about to begin and displays goal alerts within the browser in real-time for the matches you care about.
Evolving from beta to stable with a faster version of Chrome
After a bit of evolution and lots of work by the Google team, they thrilled the world by introducing a new stable version of Chrome for Windows, Mac and Linux. Since last December, they've been chipping away at bugs and building in new features to get the Mac and Linux versions caught up with the Windows version, and now they finally announce that the Mac and Linux versions are ready for prime time.
Google Chrome finally available for Mac, but not recommended for download
Lots of Google fans who are using Mac computers have been waiting for what feels like ages for Chrome. Well, it's finally here. The only catch is that Google doesn't recommend downloading it right now. Say what? That's right, it's still in very early stages and it's actually not for general consumption just yet. So far, getting it installed is as simple as most Mac app installations are. The look mimics that of Safari 4 to keep the Apple feel, but reports are saying that some aspects of Chrome seem faster than Safari or Firefox 3. It's available for download if you want to try it out, but pages like YouTube don't work and editing settings is not entirely available, either. Just remember before you go crazy that it's still in a pre-release stage and recommended for devs only.
Google Chrome for Mac gets pictured
Mac users have long felt shafted when it comes to Google's increasingly popular web browser. Sure, Google made it known that Chrome would be arriving on Macs at some point but the time frame is a bit of a mystery. While the when is still anyone's guess, Google has at least provided confirmation that it is actively working on bringing the Chrome browser to OS X in the form of the first official screen shot, pictured above. Posted last night by Googler Avi Dressman under the heading "Now we can call it Chrome!", little can be ascertained from the image other than the fact that, well, it looks like Chrome. As cute as the error message is, we'll presume it is an indication that things are still early going and we still have a bit of a wait before any kind of alpha or beta release finds its way out to testers. In the meantime, if Safari and FireFox simply don't get the job done for you – at least you can rest assured that Chrome is still on its way.

The Ten Movies With Forgotten Sequels
Subscribe to our newsletter
Sequels are one of the facts of life in Hollywood, just like gay actors pretending to be straight, executives ruining everything, and Michael Bay being a hugely successful director despite being a hack. If a movie is even remotely successful, they'll put out a direct sequel. Or if they can't get the original actors back, they'll put out, say, a "spiritual sequel". Either way, a movie is likely going to have a part two, even if that's absolutely pointless. Here are ten movies you won't believe they've turned into franchises.
Your author would love to lie and say that he loves "Grease", but that would be a terrible, shameful, horrible lie. "Grease" creeps out of this particular comedy writer like you would not believe, because so many people actually see high school that way instead of the rancid sewer of hormones, mood swings, and vileness that it actually is. Anybody who thinks high school is the best years of their life needs to get a job. Plus, the songs are just creepy. That "Ramalamadingdong" song could be the theme to every trailer park beating ever.
And even if we've ruined the original for you with that above paragraph, the sequel, which so many have gleefully forgotten, will finish the job in ways you can't imagine. Does Michelle Pfiffer sing? Why, yes. Yes, she does. There's a reason she hasn't since.
"Rocky Horror Picture Show"
The story of the success of "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" is a pretty weird one in of itself: from bomb, to obscure cult movie, to famous cult movie, to mainstream success of a movie. Only in America can a movie that slams together '70s gay culture and '50s sci-fi movies like an eight-year-old bashing action figures together find such enduring success and popularity. Also, we've got a lot of closet cases up in here, and they like to watch Tim Curry when he was a quarter of his current weight prance around in women's clothes.
Anyway, after the first movie, Brad and Janet return to Denton, which is apparently A) in Texas and B) encased in a TV studio. Nobody in the cast returned, because the movie is as weird, and as bad, as it sounds.
"Into The Blue"
We're not really sure what "Into the Blue" was supposed to be about. We think it was about skin-diving treasure hunters, but we're also fairly sure the only reason it was set in that milieu was to feature gorgeous tropical locations and to ensure that Jessica Alba and Paul Walker covered less than a quarter of their bodies in clothing at all times.
The sequel, smartly, did away with the cost of huge stars and just got random hot people. Finally, a studio is thinking!
"Road House"
Patrick Swayze's greatest movie outside of "Father Hood" was one of the most heart-warming and endearing films ever made about ripping another man's throat out and driving a monster truck through a car dealership for no reason other than it looked cool. Swayze, of course, left us recently, a fact we still mourn. Especially since he was still alive when the above turkey came out.
"The Land Before Time"
We don't really have much to say about this because we loved the original, and we love Littlefoot. The idea of mixing Disneyesque animation and dinosaurs, two things pretty much every kid loves between the ages of four and eight, was pretty much brilliant, and that lava-plain finale is just amazing.
On the other hand, Don Bluth loves eating, and it's not like he's got much in the way of work these days. As a result, there have been thirteen, yes, THIRTEEN direct-to-video "Land Before Time" sequels. Star Wars fans have nothing on the rest of us when it comes to destroyed childhoods.

Autoimmune hepatitis
Autoimmune hepatitis
Autoimmune hepatitis is inflammation of the liver that occurs when immune cells mistake the liver's normal cells for harmful invaders and attack them.
Alternative Names
Lupoid hepatitis; Chronic acute liver disease
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
This form of hepatitis is an autoimmune disease. The body's immune system can't tell the difference between healthy body tissue and harmful, outside substances. The result is an immune response that destroys normal body tissues.
Liver inflammation, or hepatitis may occur along with other autoimmune diseases, including:
- Graves disease
- Inflammatory bowel disease
- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Scleroderma
- Sjogren syndrome
- Systemic lupus erythematosus
- Thyroiditis
- Type 1 diabetes
- Ulcerative colitis
Autoimmune hepatitis sometimes occurs in relatives of people with autoimmune diseases. This suggests that there may be a genetic cause.
This disease is most common in young girls and women.
- Abdominal distention
- Dark urine
- Fatigue
- General discomfort, uneasiness, or ill feeling (malaise)
- Itching
- Loss of appetite
- Nausea or vomiting
- Pale or clay-colored stools
Other symptoms that may occur with this disease include absence of menstruation (amenorrhea).
Signs and tests
Tests for autoimmune hepatitis include:
- Anti-liver kidney microsome type 1 antibody (anti LKM-1)
- Anti-nuclear antibody (ANA)
- Anti-smooth muscle antibody (SMA)
- Serum IgG
- Liver function tests
- Liver biopsy to look for chronic hepatitis
You may need prednisone or other corticosteroid medicines help reduce the inflammation. Azathioprine and 6-mercaptopurine are drugs used to treat other autoimmune disorders. They have been shown to help people with autoimmune hepatitis, as well.
Some people may need a liver transplant.
Expectations (prognosis)
The outcome varies. Corticosteroid medicines may slow the progress of the disease. However, autoimmune hepatitis may advance to cirrhosis. This would require a liver transplant.
- Cirrhosis
- Side effects from steroids and other medicines
- Hepatocellular carcinoma
- Liver failure
Calling your health care provider
Call your health care provider if you notice symptoms of autoimmune hepatitis.
Autoimmune hepatitis is usually cannot be prevented. Knowing the risk factors may allow early detection and treatment.

Nikon D3100 bundle pops up in Best Buy database with September 18th release?
We still don't know for sure what Nikon has planned for its August 19th press event — if we did, there wouldn't be much of a reason to have a press event. Whispers, murmurs, and other rabble rousing point to a D3100 digital SLR capable of 1080p video with continuous autofocus — and now Best Buy is apparently lending credence to such talk. According to Nikon Rumors, SKU 1222817 has popped up in the retailer's database along with the description "Nikon D3100 DSLR w/ 18-55mm v" and a September 18th availability date (no pricing details mentioned by the site). We haven't seen the entry for ourselves yet — and unreleased product listings in retail databases shouldn't be taken as gospel anyway — but forgive our excitement as we look for more ways to both keep our Nikon quota and oust the aging D3000 from our arsenal.

(KNSD) San Diego's Comic-Con International 2014 officially opens to fans on Thursday and organizers say it will be the epicenter of all things pop culture.
David Glanzer, Comic-Con's Director of Marketing, says more than 130,000 fans are expected to attend the event at the San Diego Convention Center through Sunday.
That's a long way from the 300 people that attended the original San Diego Comic-Con 45 years ago in the basement of the U.S. Grant Hotel.
"When we started 45 years ago, nobody ever envisioned this," said Glanzer. "There's so much going on here now - anything having to do with pop culture, this is the epicenter of it all for the next few days."

If you stay at the Poly (or even if you don't) you might consider taking the time to enjoy the Spirit of Aloha Dinner Show, which occurs nightly on the grounds of the Polynesian. It seemed to be well attended on the night we went. They serve salad, ribs, chicken, pineapple, bread, and drinks. It's all-you-care-to-eat, just ask your server for more! Kid-friendly food is available, too. The show is kind of corny, about a girl who comes back home to Hawaii after being on the mainland. They also feature a fire dancer and dancers, and the cast performed "Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride." I suppose they could have brought out Lilo and Stitch, but maybe that's not very authentic?
Plenty of shopping is also available at the Poly. The shops and amenities on the second floor are: Samoa Snacks, Trader Mickey's (general and Polynesian-themed gifts), a PhotoPass kiosk, and Caricatures kiosk. Downstairs you can find Wyland Galleries, Capt. Cook's Quick Service, Moana Mickey's Arcade, and Bou-Tiki Fashions and Accessories.
Outside at the Polynesian there is more to be found. The Naeaua Volcano-themed pool with water slide and zero-depth entry area is a big draw for families. There is also a quiet pool, Mikala Canoe Club (marina), and Luau Cove. For parents wanting an evening alone, there is Never Land Club. This child care club is open from 4:30 p.m. until midnight and costs $11/hour per child.
There are special activities every day of the week scheduled for those who have the time for them! These include a hula class, the torch lighting ceremony, beach or pool games and a campfire sing-along. At night, it was very nice to sit at the beach and watch the Electrical Water Pageant and Wishes with the family and a frosty beverage.
Disney's Polynesian Resort is a fantastic place to get away from the rest of the world and still be able to easily get to Disney's parks for either a short or a long stay. Aloha!

The site warned that there could be an odor which would take a couple of days airing to be rid of, and the pillows needed a couple of days to fluff to the proper size. My problem is I have chemical sensitivities, and after airing the pillows and sensing no discernible off-gassing of the product, I used one. I had forgotten how badly I can be affected by such a foolhardy act! I was up all night with heart palpitations and jumpiness, and it wasn't until I went into another room that I finally fell asleep at about 4 AM. This was my own fault, but this review is for those of you that suffer with MCS (Multiple Chemical Syndrome) ~ don't deviate from what you're doing. I gave the pillows away. I've had no reports of problems from the woman who has them now, so I'm sure the pillows are great!
This is one of the worst products I have purchased from O! These pillows are cheap, the memory foam center is so thin that it does nothing. It can not give any support in the way memory form should. Just a gimmick to sell a cheaply made pillow. I went to xxxxx and purchased better pillows for less money!!
So far so good. Very comfortable and excellent value. I'm a side sleeper and these are excellent
Been sleeping on this pillow for a few weeks now, and it is very comfortable. I have neck issues so i look for pillows that arent too firm or high yet provide good support - this fits the bill pretty well.
I purchased this item in Aug 2012. At this point its as flat as a board. I don't recommend it to anyone!
These pillows are certainly constructed well and the casing looks nice with cording accents. However, I've learned my lesson...shopping for pillows on the internet is a bad idea! While they are adequate and not awful, I won't say I love them. They don't feel much like memory foam at all and I suspect it's mostly fiber with a thin memory foam center. They are perfect for a guest room and that's where they'll go. Be advised there are 2 pillows in a set. I didn't realize this (although it's in the title!) and now have 8!
These make great pillows. Good quality and nice to sleep on.
its all worth it never slept so good in years . i would recommad this to everyone out there
I'm primarily a side and side/front sleeper. I was searching for something that would give me fluffy softness against my face, but be sturdy enough to provide good support and not flatten down to nothing within months. After reading hundreds and hundreds of reviews (and becoming convinced that pillow taste is so subjective it's impossible to trust any online pillow review!) I was intrigued by the construction of these pillows. I went to BBB to test the only pillow I could find that had a similar construction... it felt pretty nice, but cost 4 times the price for just one pillow. Finally I decided to cross my fingers and give these a shot. I'm used to king size pillows, so these seemed puny when I took them from the box... I got used to the size quickly, but I must say I would definitely have liked this same pillow better if it had a king size option. It does have adequate support, although the memory foam doesn't feel nearly as obvious as it did in the super-expensive pillow. I've used the pillow for about a month now and it has seemed to change slightly; for the first week I found it best when I had it alone on the bed. Then it felt best with a second (older and fluffier) pillow underneath. It's still quite comfortable, and I feel as if I'm getting a lot better support when I'm on my side, but I am still unsure if it will prove to be durable. The only reason I bought these pillows was because I was sick of going to the store for new ones every 4 months... At least I have the second pillow from this set waiting in the closet for whenever this first one wears out!

On Monday, the lunch service (noon to 2 p.m.) will benefit the Huntington Beach Education Foundation. Â The Habit will donate 100 percent of the proceeds to each organization.
The Huntington Beach restaurant opens at 10:30 a.m. on Sept. 19.  It took over the space where Tommy Pastrami operated on Beach Boulevard near Talbert Avenue. It is across the street from In-N-Out Burger.
The restaurant is the first of four additional Habit restaurants opening soon in Orange County. A San Clemente restaurant is slated to open next at 638 Camino del los Mares. It is taking over a closed Carl's Jr.  Other restaurants are planned in Costa Mesa, at 1510 Adams Avenue near Harbor Boulevard, and in Irvine.  The exact location of the Irvine restaurant has not been disclosed.
The 60-unit chain, known for its charburgers, was founded in 1969 in Santa Barbara. Under the leadership of restaurant veteran Russ Bendel, The Habit has doubled its locations in California and Arizona since 2008. It opened its first Orange County location in late 2009 in Santa Ana.
Other county locations are in Fullerton, Lake Forest, Anaheim and Aliso Viejo.
Stay tuned:Â Read my blog or my social media pages (Facebook or Twitter) Saturday to get the inside scoop on another delicious Habit event.

Ok, I'll go first:
I grew up in a circa 1880 house that was split up into 4 apartments. My family and my paternal grandparents had the 2 1st floor apartments.
I was about 4 or 5 years old when my parents ripped up the carpet in my bedroom to reveal the original, wide-plank hardwood flooring. About a month after the carpet was taken up, I was awake in bed and it was really late...my parents had been in bed for a while. The headboard of my bed was situated against the wall between my bedroom door and my closet door.
The closet door had the original iron latch instead of a knob. I always closed it tightly because our cat would climb around in the closet and generally make a mess.
Well that night that I lay awake in bed, I could hear the closet door unlatch and creak open a bit. I looked over and noticed that it was open maybe 2". My child's mind figured that the cat had just pushed the door open and let herself out of the closet.
Except for the fact that I heard heavy footsteps walking around my bed and out through my bedroom door. And the footsteps sounded like they were padding across carpet, not hardwood.
And the fact that the cat was sleeping by my side the entire time.
To this day, I repeatedly check to see if the closet door (or any door) is firmy closed and latched in any room that I sleep in. DH thinsk I'm absolutely crazy because of it. (I personally think he just gets pissy because if its dark, I make him go check all the doors. *LOL*)
Mine isn't really scary but my grandpa died when I was a junior in high school. As I was driving home after school, my mom called that he was in the hospital and if I wanted to say goodbye I should do soon very soon. I ran home to get my clothes for practice and ran back to the hospital. I left to go to practice and while there, I was doing a stunt (cheering) that I had done a MILLION times before but this time landed flat on my_ass. I stood up and had intense goose bumps and a weird feeling come over me. I looked at the clock and it was 4:07..... I all the sudden told the coach I had to go something felt weird, went straight to the hospital (almost 2 hours before I said I would be back) and my mom was standing at the elevator door waiting for me, again I was almost 2 hours early, so how did she know I was coming????. HE had passed away at 4:07 in room 407. On the way home I was crying and was saying please let me know you are fine and in heaven and everything is fine... all the sudden I smelled his cologne very very strong in my car and I said so this means you are ok, and it went away as fast as it came....
I have goose bumps and tears in my eyes tying this even after 9 years! And it will be 9 years in one week
Mrs.frank: Along the same lines, my grandmother dies of lung cancer after smoking her entire life.
Sometimes I will walk into a room where I know no one has been smoking, ever, and I will still smell traces of cigarette smoke (no one I know smokes anymore). I know its my Gram.
akiernan-that's interesting because when you renovate old homes it triggers things. It's a very common.
I've been on lots of investigations of haunted places. The most interesting thing that I've experienced was at Moon River Brewery in Savanna. I was on an investigation with Patrick from TRU TV's Haunting Evidence. We were sitting in the basement talking in the pitch black when out of nowhere a ball of light appeared, moved a few feet in an arc and then disappeared.
I went back to Moon River and in one of the rooms someone on the previous investigation said she saw 3 shadows on the wall and there was only 2 people in the room. I took tons of pics of that room and in of them there's a shadow in the corner the picture. It wasn't the strap from my camera because I've taken pics with the strap, rain, dust, and bugs so I know what those look like. Sometimes people think they have an orb but is not.
My grandpa died and my mom and aunt inherited his house. My cousin moved into it with her family (her DH and their LO's, aged 1 and 3 at the time) shortly after his death. Since they've moved in, a few strange things have happened.
1) A cabinet that my grandpa ?had painted shut 30 years prior was pried open in the middle of the night
2) Their bedroom lights are flipped on in the middle of the night (switch and everything, cousin sleeps in my gpa's old room)
3) My cousin washed her DD's doll in the evening while her DD slept. Cousin put it in the washer and was home alone with her 1 y/o. She went to put it in the dryer and the doll was sitting up on the open door of the dryer.
They're okay with the face that my gpa is still living there with him.?
To add to ?pp..
My gpa (different gpa than in my other post) wasn't dying or anything, he was just very old, so his death was anticipated but we weren't sure whether his impending death would be the next day or the next year.?
One day in class I got overwhelmingly sick for no good reason, to the point where I had to walk out of class and leave. When I got home, I saw my mom and knew immediately what happened.
Ooh, I have a good story. It isn't mine, it's an ex's family story.
My ex-bf's mom had a ghost that would follow her wherever she lives. When my ex and his sister were little (about 8 and 10) they were in the kitchen with their mom when kitchen utensils started flying out of the drawers at their mom. Their mom was lifted up and slammed against the fridge, right in front of their eyes.
After the commotion stop, they called their pastor down the street to do an exorcism on their house. He arrived, entered the house, turned very pale and left! Now THAT is scary!!?
3) My cousin washed her DD's doll in the evening while her DD slept. Cousin put it in the washer and was home alone with her 1 y/o. She went to put it in the dryer and the doll was sitting up on the open door of the dryer.
holy.shit. fvck that.
Um, yeah. I would seriously throw the doll away. Or give it away. Whatever.
There would be no creepy_ass dolls in my house. Ever.
I rarely post on here but I had to contribute my stories..
When I was working at an ice rink I was with a bunch of figure skating students in the lunchroom and they were playing with a ouija board. They were trying to contact Wally, who had broke his neck and died at the rink. All of a sudden they got freaked out and ran out of the room. Then when it was time for me to go home it was really hot outside, like in the mid-90s, so I rolled down the window to my car. When I was about 5 miles away from the rink all of a sudden I felt cold and felt a cold hand grab my shoulder. I was so freaked out b/c there is no way my car could have been cold b/c it was so hot out.
Then later when I was at home for a couple of hours I was in my bathroom putting mascara on and all of a sudden the water turned on full blast by itself. I screamed at the top of my lungs and ran out there. My mom told me to take back whatever ghost came home w/ me. I ended up going back to the rink an hour later for my own skating lessons..and Wally never bothered me again.
Also, when I was a college student my roommates and I knew our apt. was haunted. We had heard a homeless man died where our apt. complex was. Stuff would happen all the time in our apt. Lights would turn on and off, radios would turn on and change stations, our ceiling fan would turn on and off by itself. I also took a picture of my roommate one day and when I got the pic developed and this plasma-type stuff looked like it was dripping from the ceiling.
Also, when my uncle mysteriously died... for a few weeks after his death our family pictures would be knocked off our table and also an impression of someone sitting was on my parent's bed and it was soaking wet (he drowned in a river). At my grandparent's house too a bunch of family pictures were frequently knocked off their walls.
Just crazy stuff.. I never believed in ghosts until too many things started happening. Now I'm addicted to shows like Ghost Hunters. I'd love to go on an investigation sometime but I'm waaay too chickens**t. LOL
3) My cousin washed her DD's doll in the evening while her DD slept. Cousin put it in the washer and was home alone with her 1 y/o. She went to put it in the dryer and the doll was sitting up on the open door of the dryer.
holy.shit. fvck that.
Um, yeah.? I would seriously throw the doll away.? Or give it away.? Whatever.?
There would be no creepy_ass dolls in my house. Ever.?
It was her daughter's favorite "I can't sleep without it" doll. She knew it was just my deceased grandpa moving it, so it didn't bother her.?
SportsChiquita- 90% of the time nothing happens on investigations.Ghost Hunters has events where you can investigate with them. They're really nice.
Ghostock is in Salem this spring. If you're a novice ghost hunter they pair you up with people who are experienced. I'll loan you an EMF. DH and I will be there. It's alot of fun.

Yes, but still. Couldn't they politely inform Grampa that, while they love him a lot, the doll-moving thing freaks people out?
That would be awesome!! I would love to go on an investigation w/ Ghost Hunters. Ghostock sounds fun too. That would be interesting to get paired up w/ exp. ghost hunters. I have a feeling I would freak out and run if something happened..even though I'm so intrigued by it all. LOL I would like to go to Eastern State Penitentiary (which I live somewhat close to) and also Gettysburg too.

PARIS (AP) - French President Francois Hollande said Tuesday he is going through "painful moments" in his personal life after a magazine report that he is having a secret affair with an actress.
Hollande's partner, journalist Valerie Trierweiler, has been hospitalized since Friday, when Closer published photos it said proved Hollande's liaison with Julie Gayet. The report has heaped new pressure on the already unpopular Hollande.
He was asked at a major public appearance Tuesday whether Trierweiler remains the first lady. In his first comments since the magazine report, Hollande responded: "Everyone in his or her personal life can go through ordeals - that's the case with us."
The latest revelations call into question whether a complex personal life can be private for someone with round-the-clock bodyguards, and about the role of "first lady" in France. Trierweiler is the first person to hold the post who was not married to the president.
Hollande said he will clarify who the first lady is before he takes a presidential trip to the United States on Feb. 11, but he wouldn't comment further.
The pictures published in Closer included one of a man the magazine said was Hollande being ferried by motorcycle to an apartment where Gayet waited.
Twenty years ago, the same photographer, Sebastien Valiela, rocked France's political establishment with images that revealed the secret family of then-President Francois Mitterrand, showing the Socialist leader emerging from a restaurant with the daughter he had never acknowledged.
The issue even reached the floor of parliament Tuesday. A leading legislator from the opposition conservative UMP party accused the president of taking unreasonable risks with his security.
"The president is not a normal citizen during his term. He is the chief of our armies. He is the keystone of our institutions. His protection should not suffer from any amateurism," Jacob said in the National Assembly. "The president should be aware of the level of responsibility that he exercises, be aware that his role is greater than his person, and be aware that he incarnates the image of France in the eyes of the world."
Prime Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault tried to defend his boss, insisting that Hollande "has only one concern ... the future of France, the return to growth, the fight for jobs" and that the debate about his private life "isn't worthy of a great democracy."
Photographer Valiela said he was surprised at the lack of security for Hollande, whose government has been repeatedly threatened by al-Qaida.
"To go to the rendezvous with Julie Gayet, he was taking some risks," he told RTL. "As soon as he got into the apartment, his guards left."
Francois Rebsamen, a Socialist lawmaker who counts himself among Hollande's friends, said the revelations showed the entire idea of a first lady was obsolete.
"Francois Hollande himself said it at one point: You elect a person. And then this person can live alone, can be single, can live with another man or a woman. It's no one's business and it doesn't come into play," he told RTL radio on Tuesday.
Hollande, who has four children from a previous relationship with a leading politician, was elected as a "Monsieur Normal" in a backlash against his flamboyant predecessor Nicolas Sarkozy.
Dominique Moisi, a French political analyst, said Hollande - who was already the most unpopular president in modern French history before the recent revelations - had brought the scrutiny on himself.
"He wanted to impress the French with the fact that he was a normal man, that he was a man of dignity, simplicity, moral rigor," he said. "Suddenly the French are discovering that he is like others, but in a less glorious manner, even a ridiculous manner."
Sylvie Corbet in Paris contributed to this report.

Academic Programs
Undergraduate | Accelerated 2nd Degree BSN | RN Options | Master's | Doctor of Nursing Practice | Doctoral of Philosophy | Certificates | Minors
Baccalaureate Program
Our undergraduate program combines the latest in clinical theory with traditional nursing values that emphasize holistic patient care. The distinct advantage of a four-year program is that it gives students the opportunity to combine a strong theoretical base of biological and behavioral sciences with a foundation in the liberal arts.
Accelerated 2nd Degree BSN
The Accelerated 2nd Degree BSN track is designed to enable students with a previous baccalaureate degree to earn a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) Degree. This is fast-paced and is designed to build upon the student's previous education while providing the science and nursing content. Admission is highly competitive and is based upon proven academic achievement and grades earned in pre-requisite courses. Graduate level courses (NUR 2000, 2007, or 2004) used to satisfy the undergraduate degree may not be used to satisfy a graduate degree at the University of Pittsburgh. If accepted to a graduate program in the School of Nursing, the course (s) will not need to be repeated, but you will be required to replace the credits with a graduate nursing elective.
RN Options
RN Options curriculum is curriculum is designed for registered nurses, who obtained their nursing education through either an CCNE, NLN, ACICS or ACEN accredited diploma or associate degree program to pursue undergraduate education with early admission to a graduate nursing program. Courses are taught by nursing leaders who are experts in their field. Faculty serves as educators, role models and mentors for their students.
Master's Program
Ranked among the top 10 graduate programs in the country, the MSN programs will help you keep pace with the changing demands of healthcare and the nursing profession. We offer multiple areas of concentrations to enhance your career goals.
The University of Pittsburgh School of Nursing admits a FALL COHORT ONLY to all MSN Program areas of concentration except the Nurse Anesthesia major. The application deadlines for all areas except Nurse Anesthesia are February 15th and May 1st. International students are advised to apply by the February 15th deadline. Complete applications received by February 15th will be reviewed and an admission decision will be made by June 1. Complete application received by the May 1st deadline will be reviewed and admission decisions made by June - 30th. The Nurse Anesthesia major's application deadline for BOTH THE FALL AND SPRING COHORT is January 5th
Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP)
The Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) program prepares nurses within a clinical focus (NP, CNS, and Anesthesia) or a systems focus (Nursing Administration). Graduates are prepared as advanced practice nurses, to a new level of state-of-the-art and science expertise, combining research utilization with education and practice. The DNP program prepares experts in specialized advanced nursing practice. DNPs focus on practice that is innovative and evidence-based, reflecting the critical appraisal and application of research.
Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)
The Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) program prepares nurse scholars who will discover and extend scientific knowledge that advances the science and practice of nursing and contributes to other disciplines. Graduates can assume leadership roles within research teams, health care systems, and schools of nursing in academic institutions. The School continues to be a trend setter, modifying the curriculum in response to current and future needs and offering both the MSN to PhD and BSN to PhD tracks. The current program ensures that the reputation for timeliness and excellence will continue.
The School of Nursing offers options for skill sets beyond the current degree you have. These opportunities allow you to broaden your educational preparation and increase your marketability. Post-baccalaureate certificates are available, and those credits may be applied to a Master's/DNP Degree program in the future. Post-Master's certificates are also available in clinical concentrations and in nurse specialty roles.
Students choose a major within the Master's/DNP program, and supplement the knowledge and skills gained in the program by adding a minor or a second skill set. This increases marketability and professional opportunity following program completion. Minors are available in administration, education, informatics, research, gerontology for nurse practitioners, or health care genetics.

Distance Education
Distance Education at the University of Pittsburgh School of Nursing is a formalized teaching learning system specifically designed to be carried out at remote sites using electronic communication and computer technology. Because students are not constrained by their geographic limitations, distance education offers opportunities for students to be an interactive part of the Oakland classroom while physically located at an off-site location. Students are able to participate in class discussions and receive input from the teacher in real time. The majority of the core courses of the Master's Program are offered via Distance Education.

Your Child's Safety
Your child's health and safety is of the greatest importance to us. We want you to have all the information you need in order to ensure your child's safety during his or her hospital stay and to allow us to provide high-quality care. We encourage you to take an active role in your child's health care and to talk with your child's nurse about ways to keep him or her safe. Please follow hospital rules regarding patient care, conduct, and safety, and please respect the rights of other patients and hospital personnel.
Here are a few ways we can work together.
- Your child's ID band should be on his or her arm or leg at all times.
- Please sign the logbook located a the nurse's station, and inform your child's nurse before leaving and upon returning to the unit.
- Staff members should always check your child's ID band before any procedures or administering medications. Talk to your child's treatment team and familiarize yourself with his or her medication schedule and medical equipment.
- Make sure that everyone washes their hands before any contact with your child.
- Prevent injuries and falls by:
- Keeping your child's bed rails up at all times when he or she is in a bed or crib
- Making sure wheelchair brakes are locked when transferring patients and when patients are stationary
- Assuring side rails on occupied stretchers are in an upright position
- Please follow the treatment plan recommended for your child by the medical team and request clarification about anything that seems unclear.
- If you have any concerns about your child's safety, please contact the Nurse Manager at (443) 923-9433.

I love schools that celebrate the 100th day of school. We didn't do this when I was a child but my kids have always gone to schools that did and we have a blast with it.
As usual, my daughter's kindergarten class has sent out assignments for each child to bring 100 of one thing. This year it is snack items. Katy Rose was asked to bring 100 cheese crackers and 100 raisins. I think her teacher is going to combine them to make a snack mix bag for each child in the class. Brady is a much older kid (according to the him) and they aren't doing anything like that but he still wants to celebrate.
These shirts are something I whipped up for the first time back when Brady was in kindergarten and they were a big hit with the kids. Even as "old" as he is now, he still said he'd like one to wear to school on the 100th day.
All I do is buy some colored permanent markers and two inexpensive white shirts. I didn't spend more than five dollars on each shirt and the markers were just a few dollars as well. After your kids wear them, they make great sleep shirts so you are still getting your money's worth.
But most importantly, they are easy for you to make with your kids and an awful lot of fun. Sure, they aren't works of art or precise or anything but didn't I just say they are easy and fun? Alrighty then, lets have fun!
This is Brady's shirt all set up and ready to start.
The class pet, Whiskers, is visiting us so he decided to oversee this project. Sitting beside him is Sophie, one of our family "pets". I guess she is helping, too.
All I'm doing here is using a plain white t shirt and some sharpies. I didn't even wash the shirt first.
Oh, and I tore up a cardboard box from the garage and shoved part of it up inside the shirt so my writing wouldn't bleed through.
I write 100′s on the front and the back.
You can see a few from the back in this photo because the cardboard was out when I took it.
This is Katy's, she wanted hers in Valentine colors so I did dark pink, light pink, and red.
She decided that she wanted to write her name on the back of hers, too.
Okay, that was easy.
Now I'm going to iron these puppies to help set in the ink and then I'll just throw them in the washer after the kids wear them.
The color won't bleed if you iron it and like I said, they'll make great sleep shirts!
Even though it only took me about ten minutes, that got old Whiskers all tuckered out so he is now rocking in the sunroom with Lucy and Sophie.
Now back to being a Mama. Hope you have a great evening!

WWD: It was the show, rather than the idea of becoming a producer, that spurred you to form a production company. How did it happen?
Max Azria: It was Paris 2001, and I was reading a newspaper article about Elie Chouraqui, who created the musical, and I said, "Oh my gosh, that is such a strong idea." Especially at this moment when the world is in such trouble, it's very apropos. So I called and said, "I want 100 tickets for the first night." Two months later, I was back in Paris. I met with my partner, Charles Cohen, and I said, "This show is mine. I'll pay for it, I'll produce it." Naturally, he said, "Are you joking? It's not your job." I said, "I will make it my job." After opening night, I went to dinner in Rouen with Elie, and at midnight, we wrote a contract on a paper towel. I'm not joking.
WWD: Why did you select Hollywood as a venue over New York, which is better known for theater?
M.A.: Los Angeles is where I see the creativity of the entertainment industry. For the last five years, we've seen fashion and entertainment become closer than ever. For the last two years, there's been no fashion book without an actress on the cover. Now, what entrepreneur wouldn't dream of developing a house of entertainment? I will have so much fun with this, because entertainment is a lot like fashion. It's the same gymnastics of the spirit. We always have to have vision and to look forward.

Dear RV Doctor,
My motorhome is towing a Ford Escort and I am having a problem with my tow wiring. When I have my lights on and then turn on a turn signal, I notice a really faint blinking from the turn signal that is not supposed to be blinking. I'm really confused by this. Any ideas? - Craig Burkholder, (Lititz, PA)
This sounds like my old favorite, Craig, the lifted or floating ground. Occasionally a ground fault can be very difficult to find, but fortunately you've provided some clues.
First and most importantly you have not mentioned that you are experiencing other problems like faulty braking or running lights, so for now we will assume that the faulty ground is restricted only to the turn signals. I am further assuming you are not having this problem when the running lamps are off.
The first thing to check is whether the ground wires feeding the signal lights on the coach have become broken, damaged or disconnected. If this is the case the current has to find a different path to ground. Since your tail/brake/signal light combination utilizes a single bulb with two filaments, the signal light filament can ground itself through the tail light filament, as long as the tail lights are not turned on. With the lights off, there is no current flowing through that filament so the signal light can find a ground path through it. Once you turn your lights on, positive voltage is flowing through the tail light filament so the turn signal cannot use that same path as a ground path.
Does this problem only occur when the towed vehicle is connected? And, does the problem occur on both vehicles? If the problem occurs regardless of whether or not you are towing the car, remove the lenses from the motorhome tail and/or signal light assemblies and carefully inspect the full ground path from the rear of the assembly. Inspect this ground plane carefully to make sure there is good continuity all the way from the bulb to the coach ground. Make sure that all the bulbs and sockets are free of moisture, rust, and corrosion, and that the bulb is making a good positive contact inside the socket. Hopefully the problem is limited to a dirty, wet, or corroded bulb or bad socket connection.
If the problem occurs only when you are towing, you should perform the same inspection on the towed vehicle. I include this for completeness, as you did not mention that the problem occurs when you are driving the towed vehicle by itself. Although it would likely cause other problems which you have not mentioned, it is a good idea while you're investigating a ground problem to perform an inspection of the wiring harness. In addition to the taillight assemblies pay particular attention to where the wire connector is grounded to the coach frame. Be sure all ground connections are clean, dry and tight.
(Please feel free to comment, however, please also note that due to the volume of communications I receive from multiple channels I cannot guarantee a personal response in every instance. However, questions of an overall general interest may be considered and published in an upcoming RV Doctor column.)

Welcome to your source for FICM repair!
We can repair your dead FICM!
The FICM - or Fuel Injection Control Module - is responsible for deciding how much fuel to deliver to individual engine cylinders. It does so by providing voltage to open and close the individual fuel injectors that deliver already pressurized fuel to the engine.
Over time, the module begins having difficulty doing its job. Output voltages drop and the injectors no longer open and close as they should. The result? A truck that is difficult or impossible to start, especially when the engine is cold. Depending on how bad the module has become, you may also notice a significant drop in fuel economy.

Freezing cupcakes with filling
Cake Central Top Picks
the best way to get an understanding if this will work for you is to test it yourself-- depends on the type of filling--it depends on your exact freezer and how the two will react with the baked cake--if any water crystals formed somewhere they would freeze and then melt as water--i'm not a cupcake guru by any means but you might want to offer some more details about the make up of your products to get more specific information--depends on how much moisture is produced where the filling sits on the cake--might get mushy there--might not--
somebody smart will be by shortly i'm sure ;)

I freeze cupcakes all the time. Although I've never baked a filing inside the cupcake. I put the fillings in after they're baked. I've frozen cupcake "blanks" (unfilled, unfrosted) and finished cupcakes. no problems for me.
i would make an educated guess that that would be successful because you mean canned pie filling right? there's cornstarch in there to keep it from getting weepy-- probably would work--looks promising--
what you can do is start early next time you need to make them--mix up a small batch and freeze them overnight and see how it goes--
when i do small batches i divide my recipe down to what i need to use one egg--sometimes i reconfigure the recipe for half an egg--i beat the egg and measure half--which i think is two tablespoons for a large egg--
then of course if you need four eggs in your original recipe--divide all the ingredients by 4 to get the right amounts to use one egg in your small batch--if you wanna use a half an egg for the same recipe divide the ingredients by 8
and if my mini batches are too weird for you--don't forget to freeze one next time!
and i hope you put a drop or two of almond extract in the cherries--there's hardly anything better than almond cherries and chocolate--mmmm ♥

I only sell cupcakes by the dozens. My customers have often frozen my filled cupcakes when they could not eat them all right away. They say they are still great thawed out weeks later. I also sell my cupcakes wholesale to a kiosk at the mall and they regularly freeze part of their order and defrost as needed for their display case. They say the quality is excellent and their customers agree. Of course, all of my cupcakes meet the shelf stable requirements of my home based bakery limitations (no cakes, fillings, etc. that require refrigeration) so that may be the key to success in my filled cupcakes.

One of the major highlights of CSOs participation at the World Bank/IMF 2011 Annual Meetings was a first ever open roundtable between CSOs and the Executive Directors of the two institutions. The purpose of this event was to promote an exchange of views and address the policy issues of the 2011 Annual Meetings such as jobs, gender, economic recovery, and climate change. The roundtable's co-chairs were Ian Solomon (WB Executive Director, U.S.) and Moeketsi Majoro (IMF Executive Director, Lesotho). A total of 20 EDs or alternates from both institutions, and some 80 CSO representatives attended the event.
Initial comments were made by Yemisi Ransome-Kuti, representing Nigeria's NGO Forum, and Muhammad Abushagra, representing Egypt's Youth Entrepreneurship and Sustainability (YES). Among other things, Ms. Ransome-Kuti described her work as a consultant ensuring public participation in a World Bank infrastructure project, and asked what the Bank's response has been to the Horn of Africa. Mr. Abushagra spoke about the significance of the Arab Spring, stating that citizens have become players in their own destiny and criticized both institutions for having supported the previous Egyptian government.
An ED expressed that he was pleased to see openness in the two institutions' work, as this has certainly manifested in key policies and social sectors (health and education). He also added that the global economy is much more interconnected than 5 – 10 years ago, to the point that even one country's policies could create ripple effects in other countries. Several CSOs remarked that the World Bank and IMF should involve civil society more in their programs, as well as provide more budget resources for consultations at the country level. Another attendee expressed her concern about capacity training, especially in the area of procurement processes and the importance of maximizing more "South-South" knowledge sharing.
There was also discussion about the World Bank and IMF's response to the Arab Spring, the Horn of Africa crisis, the ongoing global economic recession, climate change, and gender. A CSO representative commented that it's important that the Bank stay focused on these important issues, and continue to keep the public updated. Another CSO representative suggested that there may be opportunities for CSOs to help design economic frameworks, as well as opportunities for CSOs to be more constructively engaged with local governments.
In response to these collective remarks and suggestions, an Executive Director stated that the World Bank is trying to channel more resources to CSOs – to tap into their capabilities, knowledge, and presence in the field. He agreed that engagement with CSOs was very important. He added that the World Bank was doing its part to be more transparent, especially online, by publishing more information and data, Bank projects, as well as what's happening inside the World Bank. He highlighted how the World Bank responded immediately to the crisis in the Horn of Africa, with a short-, medium-, and long-term plan.
Another Executive Director explained that the World Bank is changing, and reminded everyone that the role of the Executive Board is to broker consensus. This Executive Director also added that the most important element is that the World Bank continues to deepen its dialogue with CSOs and other stakeholders, and concluded these remarks by reminding CSOs to continue their proactive dialogue with their governments.
Another Executive Director underscored the importance of CSO inclusion, which is a significant lesson from the Arab Spring incidents. This Executive Director also advised CSOs that they could be more watchful of their governments, and even request that their governments include CSOs as part of project implementation programs. Another Executive Director commended CSO representatives for being up to date on World Bank and IMF news and publications. He suggested that the CSOs also invest the time to learn how the IMF works – specifically, what the country teams do, how the IMF management determines priorities, and the responsibilities of the Executive Directors.
This summary note was prepared by Hannah George and Audrey Liounis, Communications Officers of the Operations Communications Department (EXTOC) of the World Bank. If you have any comments or questions on the note please send an email to email@example.com.

A land fit for Heroes
Telegraph | News | Fighter ace sells medals to spare wife long wait for hip replacement
One of the most decorated British fighter pilots of the Second World War has sold his medals, diaries and other memorabilia partly to pay for a hip replacement operation for his wife who faced at least a six-month wait on the National Health Service.
Sqn Ldr Neville Duke, 83, the Royal Air Force's top-scoring ace in the Mediterranean theatre who set a world air speed record of 728 mph in 1953, put the collection up for auction rather than subject his wife Gwen to months of pain and discomfort while she waited for an operation.
Scotsman.com News - Latest News - NHS trusts 'delaying operations'
Hospitals have been told to delay operations to reduce debts faced by primary care trusts,...
A letter leaked to the Times reveals hospitals within Harrow Primary Care Trust, which is reportedly facing an Ł8-12 million deficit, have been told to delay surgery.
The document, written by Dr Ken Walton, chairman of the trust's professional executive committee, tells GPs it has "reluctantly" asked hospitals to "do the minimum required to meet national targets".
It says: "This means that patients sent for outpatient appointments will only be seen at 10-13 weeks (national target 13 weeks) and elective surgery will be delayed until the sixth month (national target six months)."
In a statement, the trust defended its policy.
It said: "Harrow PCT is taking action to control its expenditure that will not affect the quality of care given to its patients.
"All patients in Harrow will be seen within national targets."
Similar practices are also reported to be taking place to save money at trusts elsewhere in the country.
Proud of the NHS? Proud of Britain? Proud of the Snodgrasses who think as long as "targets" are met that delays "will not affect the quality of care given to its patients"?
