This morning I read this week's focus point in the Summit Consulting Newsletter and one line in it particulary had me thinking. That line was:
"perhaps we should be following those who truly lead and not merely direct"
So I proposed this question to myself: When people read this blog, does it look like I'm leading by doing or just directing people to do things I don't appear to be doing myself?
I took a moment to reflect.
Once in a great while there may be things I recommend on this site that I don't actually do when it comes to marketing it, however I may be very family with the practice from other experiences. For instance, I link-build to this blog very cautiously because it is a blog about search engine optimization and I fear it will be overly scrutinized by the search Gods and perhaps even reported by some SEOs who prefer to try and bring other sites down instead of building themselves up. I simply don't have the luxury of "playing stupid" when it comes to acquiring back links and SEO. And, although there are plenty of additional back linking methods that DO work, I simply cannot justify taking those risks here. So, for the most part I have to rely on "natural" link building for this website. Which sucks!
If you take a look at the most expensive recommendations I make when it comes to acquiring back links, which is submitting your website to my list of the top 5 general web directories, you'll see that I've also spent the nearly $1000 to have this site reviewed and listed in those directories because I believe in them and they are the what I consider the safest web directories partially due to their strict approval process. Submitting to the four paid directories: Yahoo!, JoeAnt, BOTW, and Business.com allows me to manually acquire some authoritative backlinks while also resting easy at night.
So, it appears I am taking my own advice. When I make a recommendation for something that is going to cost you money, I'm making the recommendation because I believe in it and I use it too.
Awhile back I started reading a particular blog and was very impressed by the sincerity of the writer. Over time I lost interest but still checked in occasionally. A few months had gone by and this writer started doing a lot more affiliate promotions in his blog posts. Which is fine, I don't mind that at all as long as you're promoting things you believe in. But, what caught me by surprise was when this person wrote in one of his posts how article marketing had been the key to his success followed by an affiliate link that would go on to make him thousands of dollars in commissions that month. Just a few month earlier this person replied to a comment on his blog noting how he hadn't really done much article marketing and couldn't comment on how effective it was. Needless to say, I no longer trust anything this person recommends whenever there is an affiliate link associated with it.
If you're sincere about what you do, then I'm sure you work hard at doing the best you can. But, sometimes it's not always easy to see yourself as others do. Perhaps you should ask a friend to hold you accountable. In the long-run, maintaining your trust is worth far more than any short-term pay-off.

It would suck not being able to use link building methods and having to wait for links to appear naturally. I know it is the best method and will be great in the long (very long) term, but personally I love building the links and getting really good results within a couple months. Ya trust is a really important aspect of blogging and I really don't trust very many people especially when it comes to internet marketing.

Hey Kris,
Yeah, for the most part it does SUCK! It would be nice to be able to use *all* the available methods mega media companies and other major name brands get away with. But, I'd have to say even without all of that manually link-building Google still seems to treat this site pretty well when you look at the total number of backlinks compared to other sites within this niche.

I'm a big fan of making pudding at home. It really is only slightly more work than using the stuff from a box, and you are rewarded with a wider choice in flavors and the ability to use higher quality ingredients. This maple-flavored version is a nice change of pace, and you can make the spiced pecans while the pudding sets up in the fridge. Watch the video and you'll see, I've got a surprise ingredient for spicing the pecans that adds a smokiness which matches beautifully with the woodsy maple flavor. The full recipe is in my book.
Oh, and Seattle folks: I wanted to let you know that I'll be cooking a popup dinner on Tuesday, April 10th at Judkins Street Cafe. The menu will be a modern, vegetarian twist on Southern food.

I had the same symptoms on my car, turned out to be warped rotors. You can remove them and have them resurfaced or you can purchase new ones. Also if your pads are beginning to screech or indicate that it is time to change them I would do so as well.
Usually your break piston presses against the pad and the pad stays consistently close to the rotor, I am not sure by "caliper is not disengaged"

East-coasters The Trews' latest disc, Friends and Total Strangers is an energetic, acoustic live album that emphasizes the band's Maritime roots. With predominant accordion layered into several tracks, folksy guitar creating a down-home feel, and lead singer Colin MacDonald's unmistakable vocals, The Trews proudly bring a little of their hometown Antigonish, Nova Scotia to the live show recorded in Toronto for this album.
The album features Trews tracks from their previous three albums: 2008's No Time For Later, 2005's Den of Thieves, and 2004's House of Ill Fame. Of course, the live recording includes The Trews biggest hits like "Poor Ol' Broken Hearted Me", "Tired of Waiting", and "So She's Leaving", all sing-along tracks that sound best when karaoke'd with copious amounts of beer. But there are also lesser-known tracks that are just as infectious and sing-along worthy, such as the drinking-song inspired "Ishmael & Maggie" and the previously unreleased "Locked Doors".
There's something about a live disc that automatically makes it stand out from a typical, studio mastered album. With The Trews' Friends and Total Strangers, we hear all the tracks we know and love from their previous albums, but we hear them in their rarest form. The songs heard at a live show are never the same as you hear on a regular album. The band is free to improvise; they throw in new guitar riffs; they play with vocal arrangements; they incorporate new instruments. We hear the crowd sing along with the band. This excellent 16-track, hour long acoustic album definitely brings The Trews live show home.

As I began to prepare for this address, I began to think about presidential installations, investitures, and inaugurations. Most of them that I have seen have occurred in the last decade as my colleagues and friends have moved into leadership positions. I suspect that I am a part of a large majority that had no idea that our path would lead to a presidency. In fact, the first time I ever saw a university president was during my first year as an undergraduate student. The president of Case Western Reserve University, Louis Toepfer, was a qualified scholar who made one very unfortunate choice of words, saying to the students that "Learning is Suffering" during an address about budget challenges. The outcry was strong and even resulted in a T-shirt with President Toepfer's most unflattering portrait surrounded by those words: "Learning is Suffering." Sadly, the university archives retained proof of President Toepfer's days of challenge.
We must find a way to ensure not only the short-term success of Misericordia University, but work to make that success stretch long beyond our reach. My hope is that at Misericordia University we find our way to serve the mission and to ensure the long-term support of that mission. Nearly 800 of our students are from first-generation university families. A similar number are eligible for federal and state aid based on financial need. And, the Bourger Women with Children program supports 10 women and their children as first-generation university families. My dream is that we find ways to more fully support the charisms and vision of our founders, the Sisters of Mercy.
I recognize that some will wonder why my vision isn't clearer. Simply, I haven't listened to you and learned from you enough to articulate our shared vision with great clarity. Change does not always happen at the drop of a hat, or as some say, at the drop of a pocket. I'm looking forward to sharing a cup of tea, or sherry, or coffee, as we exchange ideas and dreams and as we move into an exciting future.

Plum incentive approved
Davidson County commissioners approved a $2 million incentives package Tuesday to bring a $24 million industrial expansion to Thomasville.
Commissioners approved the incentive for the company on a unanimous vote. During a public hearing on the plan, commissioners did not identify the company.
With the county unemployment rate at 10 percent, the 250 jobs the unnamed "Project Plum" company has promised are much needed. From 2001 to 2011, Davidson County lost more than 9,000 jobs.
"These grants will stimulate the local economy, increase the county tax base and revenues, result in the creation of employment opportunities," said Commissioner Larry Potts, "and promote the welfare of the county and it citizens."
The plan includes up to $1 million in county money for the purchase of portions of three properties which total about 142.8 acres for a new plant on Clarksbury Church Road. The properties are near three wood products companies and the Lowes millwork and flatbed distribution center.
The county would lease the land to the "Project Plum" company for 10 years at $100,000 a year, Potts said. If the company meets the proposed investment, job, and wage requirements each year, the county would pay "Project Plum" an annual grant, of no more than $100,000, for 10 years. The plan offers a potential payback in 10 years.
Project Plum is the largest potential project since Timco Aviation Systems announced in September 2010 plans to create 500 jobs in Wallburg. The county had 18 economic-development projects during 2012 – third most in the country for micropolitans, Site Selection magazine reported recently.
Project Plum
Investment: $24 million in new plant, machinery and equipment
Jobs: 250 jobs, paying more than the county average of $14 per hour, over three years.
Incentive: $1 million from county funds to purchase portions of three parcels of properties on Clarksbury Church Road off U.S. Highway 64 East in Thomasville. $1 million grant for 10 years for job creation.

A team of scientists, led by researchers at The Wistar Institute, has found that an infection with herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) causes rearrangements in telomeres, small stretches of DNA that serve as protective ends to chromosomes. The findings, which will be published in the Dec. 24 edition of the journal Cell Reports, show that this manipulation of telomeres may explain how viruses like herpes are able to successfully replicate while also revealing more about the protective role that telomeres play against other viruses.
Scattered across our genome are endogenous retroviruses (ERVs), ancient "footprints" of previous viral infections. Scientists do not fully understand their functions, but Zeng et al. now report a role for ERVs in mobilizing a particular type of B cell–driven immune response in mice (T cell–independent, TID), which is usually mounted in response to viral capids or bacterial polysaccharides (see the Perspective by Grasset and Cerutti). Immunizing mice with a model TID antigen elicited an increase in ERV RNA and DNA in the cytoplasm of B cells. Innate immune receptors that recognize cytoplasmic nucleotides then triggered signaling cascades that resulted in the production of immunoglobulin M.

Gene therapy using integrating retroviral vectors has proven its effectiveness in several clinical trials for the treatment of inherited diseases and cancer. However, vector-mediated adverse events related to insertional mutagenesis were also observed, emphasizing the need for safer therapeutic vectors. Paradoxically, alpharetroviruses, originally discovered as cancer-causing agents, have a more random and potentially safer integration pattern compared to gammaretro- and lentiviruses. In this review, we provide a short overview of the history of alpharetroviruses and explain how they can be converted into state-of-the-art gene delivery tools with improved safety features. We discuss development of alpharetroviral vectors in compliance with regulatory requirements for clinical translation, and provide an outlook on possible future gene therapy applications. Taken together, this review is a broad overview of alpharetroviral vectors spanning the bridge from their parental virus discovery to their potential applicability in clinical settings

Plant-made or "biofarmed" viral vaccines are some of the earliest products of the technology of plant molecular farming, and remain some of the brightest prospects for the success of this field. Proofs of principle and of efficacy exist for many candidate viral veterinary vaccines; the use of plant-made viral antigens and of monoclonal antibodies for therapy of animal and even human viral disease is also well established. This review explores some of the more prominent recent advances in the biofarming of viral vaccines and therapies, including the recent use of ZMapp for Ebolavirus infection, and explores some possible future applications of the technology.

Credit Ratings
Measuring the Quality of Bond Issuers
Credit ratings are an important tool used to assess the ability of a bond issuer to make timely payments of interest and principal. Before you invest, your Financial Advisor can help you review a bond's credit rating, as well as the effect a rating change may have on the bond.
Rating Agencies: An Overview
A key risk of bond investing is credit risk, which is the possibility that a bond issuer will not be able to make scheduled interest payments or repay the principal when the bonds mature. There are three major credit ratings agencies—Moody's Investors Service, Standard & Poor's Corporation and Fitch Ratings—that review and rate an issuer's overall financial condition, as well as the industry or sector in which it operates, to determine creditworthiness. The resulting rating represents the agency's opinion at a particular point in time, and it is continuously revised to reflect any industry, sector, company or municipal developments that could affect a security's market price.
How Bonds Are Classified
Rating agencies classify issuers and their bonds into two general categories: investment grade and below investment grade.
The Relationship Between Credit Ratings and Risk of Default
There is an inverse relationship between credit quality and the default probability of a bond; in general, the higher a security's credit rating, the lower its risk of default. Conversely, lower rated bonds will have higher relative yields, but the greater return potential is accompanied by an increased chance of a ratings downgrade and/or default.
Source: Standard & Poor's, Moody's Investors Service, Fitch Ratings
Source: Moody's Investors Service, Standard & Poor's, Fitch Ratings
Adjustments in Credit Quality
The agencies monitor the credit quality of the securities and issuers they have previously rated. When they determine that a rating change may be warranted, the security or issuer is placed on the "Watchlist" (Moody's), "CreditWatch" (S&P) or "Rating Watch" (Fitch).
Source: Standard & Poor's, Moody's Investors Service, Fitch Ratings
Consider the Risks
In addition to credit risk, fixed income securities are subject to interest rate risk, call risk and reinvestment risk.
The market value of bonds may fluctuate, and proceeds from sales prior to maturity may be more or less than the amount originally invested or the maturity value, due to changes in market conditions or changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Talk to your Financial Advisor about your investment goals and risk tolerances when considering fixed income securities in your portfolio.
For more information about bond credit ratings, ask your Financial Advisor for a copy of our brochure "Bond Perspectives: An Educational Look at Bond Credit Ratings."

German Government Advisor Proposes Personal CO2 Budget For Everyone On Planet
The top climate science advisor [Joachim Schellnhuber] to the German government has proposed that everyone on the planet should have a personal CO2 budget and be forced to pay a tax if they exceed it, adding that westerners have already exceeded their allocations and should pay climate reparations to poorer countries.
"Schellnhuber is proposing the creation of a CO2 budget for every person on the planet, regardless whether they live in Berlin or Beijing," reports Der Spiegel, a "breathtaking" idea according to Czech physicist Dr. Lubos Motl, who said Schellnhuber's proposal helped him "to understand how crazy political movements such as the Nazis or communists could have so easily taken over a nation that is as sensible as Germany."
Schellnhuber goes further, claiming that westerners have already exceeded their CO2 allocations and will need to pay climate reparations to poorer countries amounting to no less than $142 billion dollars a year, every year.

Skinny people irritate me! Especially when they say things like "you know, sometimes I forget to eat!" Now, I've forgotten my address, my mother's maiden name, and my keys, but I have never forgotten to eat. You have to be a special kind of stupid to forget to eat.This trope describes a character who's notorious for ignoring their body's need for nutrition and has to be reminded to eat. They'll go out into the wilderness without food supplies, and will forget dinnertime at home because what they're doing is so much more interesting. This is the opposite of Big Eater, especially if the character doesn't quite suffer all the ill effects of poor nutrition. Grief-stricken characters may show it for a period, particularly during Drowning My Sorrows or a Mess Of Woe. The Absent-Minded Professor may exhibit this trope, and it is a common component of The Madness Place. It may also be a temporary effect of Just One More Level. This is Truth in Television, as workaholics and others will become so engaged in something that they do forget to eat. Isaac Newton was famous for being so obsessive-compulsive about his work that he would work hours and hours while neglecting to bathe or eat. Because this is common among obsessed gamers, Anti-Poop Socking had to be put in place in many games. Science further backs this up, as the nervous system has the digestive system slow and close up if a person is under stress. Nobody wants to stop for a bathroom break or snack when being chased by a bear.

Scottsbluff couple sentenced to prison for child abuse
A Scottsbluff couple convicted in June of abusing one of their children have been sentenced to prison.
On Thursday, a Scotts Bluff County District judge sentenced 36-year-old Carlos Herrera to four to five years in prison. His wife, 30-year-old Jennifer Herrera, was sentenced to one to two years.
The Herreras have denied the abuse and plan to appeal.
Officials began investigating the Herreras in October 2011, when their 5-year-old son missed school after showing up with injuries.
Authorities say the Herreras tried to conceal the boy's whereabouts when officers went to check on him. When found, he had the imprint of a shoe across his face, a black eye, bruising and a severe rash.
Prosecutors also said the boy suffered extreme neglect and malnutrition.

Musharraf appeared before anti-terrorism court over the assassination of former prime minister Benazir Bhutto's case, official said. (AP Photo/Anjum Naveed)
ISLAMABAD (AP) — A Pakistani court on Wednesday rejected bail for ex-military ruler Pervez Musharraf in a case connected to the assassination of former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto in 2007, a government prosecutor said.
It was the latest setback for Musharraf, who returned to Pakistan last month from four years in self-imposed exile to make a political comeback but is currently under house arrest in connection with a different case.
Musharraf returned to run in the parliamentary election scheduled for May 11, but was disqualified because of his actions while in power and is spending most of his time battling legal cases.
He seized power in a military coup in 1999 when he was army chief. He was serving as president when Bhutto was killed in a gun and bomb attack in December 2007, shortly after she returned from exile to contest the elections.
Musharraf blamed the Pakistani Taliban for Bhutto's slaying, but government investigators later said there was evidence of his involvement. A U.N. report faulted Musharraf's government for failing to provide Bhutto with adequate security.
Musharraf has denied the allegations against him.
The former military ruler had arranged a pre-arrest bail in the Bhutto case and several others before returning to Pakistan, meaning he could not be immediately arrested on arrival.
On Wednesday, the Islamabad High Court rejected Musharraf's bail after his lawyer failed to appear to argue for an extension in the Bhutto case, said government prosecutor Zulfikar Chaudhry.
Musharraf could now be arrested and tried in connection with the Bhutto case as well, said Chaudhry.
Musharraf was placed under house arrest over the weekend in connection with a case involving his decision to fire senior judges, including the chief justice of the Supreme Court, while in power. His arrest followed a dramatic escape from court in which he fled in a speeding vehicle to avoid detention. He was eventually placed under arrest at his heavily guarded house on the outskirts of Islamabad.
Musharraf stepped down from power in 2008 because of growing discontent with his rule, especially among the legal community because of his decision to dismiss judges. He returned last month despite the legal challenges against him, as well as death threats by the Pakistani Taliban.
Police defused a car bomb parked about 150 meters (500 feet) from Musharraf's house in Islamabad on Tuesday and are investigating how the vehicle was able to get so close to his home.

By Anne Thompson | Thompson on Hollywood May 29, 2014 at 2:46PM
Offered the chance to meet Lee Daniels, I took it. I've never interviewed the filmmaker before. He's a fascinating enigma, someone who veers in and out of control of his medium as he tries to stay in touch with his inner truth --and demons--for the sake of his art. He is an artist--for better or worse, as his films, which are never boring, attest, from "Shadow Dancer" and "The Paperboy" to his mainstream hits "Precious" and "The Butler." Actors revere him. Critics? Not so much.
We meet at the Chateau Marmont, where New Yorker Daniels is holed up working on his musical Fox TV series "Empire," which has just been green-lit off the pilot. What? He knows this move to network television seems surprising (cable seems more likely), but he decided that this high-concept pitch from "The Butler" writer Danny Strong --"King Lear" set in the world of hip-hop-- called for mainstream treatment. Daniels wants to reach people.
Besides, he's doing what his mentor Norman Lear told him to do: television. He took the pitch to vet TV producer, Imagine Brian Grazer, who loved it. And he's also developing a musical biopic of Sammy Davis Jr. at HBO.
Anne Thompson: Why did you not take "Empire" to HBO or Showtime where you could go full R?
Lee Daniels: What is R?
The language of hip-hop.
The definition of R, beyond hip-hop, is for me what was PG-13 fifteen to twenty years ago. It's now R in theaters. And so that's where my headspace is, you know. I am old school. I said, 'how do I train myself to work in this,' but "The Butler" was very hard because I couldn't do those Lee Daniels's tricks and stay in that box.
So was it a question of discipline, "The Butler?"
Yeah. I believe in life that you know that everything prepares you for the next thing whether it's a hit whether it's not a hit whether it's a…your failures are your accomplishments because it makes you prepared for whatever it is that you are going to do next.
So what did you learn from "The Paperboy," for example, where you got these amazing performances, but somehow you left out some audiences? There was a narrow band that got that movie. At Cannes the actors were raving about working with you. They trust you. They will put themselves into a place of terrifying risk for you.
Yeah. I am really proud of that movie. I am proudest of them. I don't know, I haven't seen any of my movies after I finish them. I leave the editing room I don't go back. The experience that I have when I watched it at Cannes-- I am proudest of that film. People that really get me are people that are my peers. People I consider my heroes have sought me out to say this is an incredible film. So I am really proudest of that-- I don't know, I'm proud of all of them I guess, but I was saddened that it wasn't received the way that it could have been received. I don't think that we had the right distributor. I don't think that we had the right director. I just think it was like whatever.
How do people misunderstand you, do you think?
Flamboyant. I've read some things. That's why I stopped reading because I can't bear it. It's too painful. I see the world from a very specific perspective. It is how I grew up. It is what I am proud of and I vocalize it. And for those who have not experienced my experience it is odd and it's not mainstream.
What did you learn from "The Paperboy"?
I learned from that experience that you have to have a distributor that believes in your film. Otherwise I've been blessed; I've been pretty good at picking the right--
Lionsgate nailed "Precious."
And Harvey did too. For "The Butler," broke his back.
Absolutely. The audiences came.
You know what's great, I went to my mom's church in Philadelphia. and I came in and they just gave me this standing round of applause and it was so humbling. Here are these simple churchgoing people that have had some tragedies and they just stood there with a blinding faith in God. It makes me question how much I can believe. And so when I came into the church and they stood up I knew it was pure and that I had made them happy and in doing that I made my mom happy. So that was a pretty good moment and all around the country these people they know the movie and it's crazy. It's crazy.
And you learned a lot of discipline getting that movie made?
Yeah and so that prepared me for the idea of jumping into this medium. I was nervous, but I've had incredible collaborators with Fox. So why didn't I go to Showtime or HBO? I am doing something with HBO now, but, I wanted to make sure that it was accessible; that these stories were accessible to mid-America. Half my family cannot afford cable so I knew that if I told this story I had to tell it for them to see. And so I wanted to make sure that in doing that mainstream it had to push me not to PG-13 but to PG, you know, prime time. Fox, you know.
So you're playing around with the words without using the F word.
Or the N word. Which is really prevalent in half the material and rap today. It's in the acting. Extraordinary actors. Taraji P. Henson and Terrence Howard: extraordinary. Gabourey Sidibe.
Terrence Howard is your youngish King Lear? Why him?
Yeah he has kids that are in their late twenties to eighteen: three kids, three sons. I am so humbled by him. He is an incredible man. He can quote like probably every word in the Bible and this is how complex he is, how smart he is.
You mean he has a photographic memory?
Yeah. Oh that too. And yet there's this danger, and yet there's this hurt child about him, there's this sexiness, there's this vulnerability, there's this "Oh my God, what is he going to do next"?
How many episodes is it?
Twelve. Plus the pilot.
So you have shot the pilot, which they've seen and announced that they have greenlit, but which we haven't seen yet.

My Sexy Dancing Wife
I buy my wife really sexy things like dresses, tops, heels, skirts, etc. for her to wear when we go out dancing. I do it because it gets me so turned on to see her so sexy in revealing outfits and to see guys look at her constantly with me knowing what they are wishing to do with her! It's even better when they dance with her. I see them grinding up against her, and I know she has only a thong on and sometimes nothing underneath! She gets felt up out there all the time. Because of that, it has led to us having three male/male/female threesomes. It is the hottest thing to see her go at it with the guy! She knows she is dressed so sexy, and she does it because she is dying to have guys give her all this extra attention and then possibly have sex with them! She and I have the most awesome sex ourselves after these experiences. When we recall it, it gets us both so turned on!

Home > Health & Wellness > Health Library > Types of Contact Lenses
Several different types of contact lenses are available to
treat vision problems. Consult an eye doctor who is
willing to work with you to select the best type of lens for your needs and
Most hard (rigid) lenses are made of gas-permeable materials
that allow oxygen to reach the
cornea. This reduces problems that may occur when the
cornea does not get enough oxygen. They correct
refractive errors, including
astigmatism, with no distortion.
Soft (silicone hydrogel) lenses are made
of soft, very flexible plastics that absorb water (up to 90% of the lens
weight). Many people find them more comfortable to wear than hard lenses, but
hard lenses usually provide sharper vision. Soft lenses are more fragile than
hard lenses and require more intensive cleaning. Soft lenses that can correct
astigmatism are called toric lenses.
There are two types of disposable lenses:

On Wednesday Jack Hoffman, along with his parents Andy & Brianna Hoffman, joined Executive Director for Uplifting Athletes Scott Shirley and Christine Bork, Chief Development officer for CureSearch for Children's Cancer, in presenting a $275,000 check to pediatric brain cancer researchers at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute in Boston, Massachusetts.
The check represents money raised during the 2012 football campaign through Team Jack t-shirt sales, private fundraisers, University student fundraisers, and donations to CureSearch and Uplifting Athletes.

The Team Jack Legacy Fund is committed to helping find a cure for pediatric brain cancer. The family of Jack Hoffman will work closely with the scientific advisory board at CureSearch, along with input from Jack's pediatric neuro-oncology team at Dana Farber Cancer Institute/Harvard Medical School which includes Dr. Mark Kieran, a world reknown expert on pediatric brain tumors, in selecting pertinent research projects. Dr. Chuck Stiles, Director of Cancer Biology at Harvard Medical School will also be involved in selecting a research project that will provide hope to children suffering from pediatric brain cancer.
Research is needed to improve drug delivery methods, as well as identifying other possible genetic abnormalities in pediatric brain cancer that can be treated with chemically engineered "smart drugs."
The Hoffman family has made a lifetime commitment to helping erradicate the No. 1 cancer cause of death in children.

Heartbreaking loss puts season on brink
WC faces win or go home game Saturday
October 23, 2012
- Junior defender Rachel Gutowski -
WILMINGTON – The Wilmington College women's soccer team has been here before. With Tuesday's heartbreaking 2-1 loss to Ohio Northern at Charlie Gilhart Field, the Lady Quakers have their collective backs against the wall.
A win in Saturday's regular season finale with John Carroll, and they are in the Ohio Athletic Conference tournament. With a loss and a season that starting with so much promise comes to an unceremonious end. The game is slated for a 7 p.m. Saturday at Gilhart Field.
It was the same way for WC last season, and they were able to prevail under the win or go home scenario.
The Lady Quakers were nearly moments from forcing overtime when Ohio Northern, the preseason favorite in the OAC, found the back of the net with a shade under two minutes remaining. For the last five minutes of the game, Ohio Northern applied extreme pressure on the WC defense, and it finally overwhelmed the Lady Quakers.
"Ohio Northern felt they needed to win to secure a spot in the tournament," said WC head coach Steve Spirk. "We played strong in the second half. We had chances to go ahead. There were corner kicks and plays at goal."
Seven of ONU's 10 second-half shots were in the final five minutes of the game, including four within a 15 second span that eventually led the game winner. Wilmington couldn't clear the ball as the Polar Bears had three straight shots hit the crossbar, before the fourth hit the bar and landed in the back of the net.
Wilmington fell behind in the 26th minute as ONU took advantage of a foul called on the edge of the box, and buried a free kick. The scored remaining 1-0 until the 58th minute as an Ohio Northern miscue led to the equalizer.
A cross pass hit off a Polar Bear defender and went to the back of the net for an own goal.
Freshman Sarah Stauffer (Beavercreek, OH/Beavercreek) had three saves in taking the loss.

During a visit to one of the OEMs, the research team ergonomist examined in-depth one particular new truck with some of the latest optional safety belt features installed. An on-the-road test ride and demonstration of the truck driver and passenger seats, and the safety belts accompanying them, was conducted as part of the ergonomics assessment. The truck included a modern air-ride seat. The seating arrangement in that truck included a 3-point safety belt (see Figure 8), com- plete with two optional features designed to enhance driver comfort in using safety belts: (1) a shoulder strap D-loop height adjuster (see Figure 9) mounted on the truck cab's B-pillar that permitted the driver to select about 7 in. of stroke adjustment for shoulder strap placement to his/her preference and (2) a shoulder strap equipped with a safety belt latch in place that permitted drivers to insert an extra inch or two of slack in the shoulder belt for added comfort as the strap crossed the driver's chest (see Figures 10 and 11). The 45-min on-the road demonstration ride included trav- eling at varying speeds, enacting random forced quick stops, driving around banking turns, roadway inclines and declines, and driving over substantially bumpy roads, railroad tracks, and so forth. In a truck static mode, ergonomic observations and measurements were made with three drivers: a medium-sized man, a large, tall man, a smaller-statured woman seated in the driver's seat. Figure 7. Three-point safety belt in a Class 8 truck. In addition to visiting several OEMs, the research team also visited several truck carrier terminals and several public CMV drivers who differed anthropometrically (body sizes, and commercially run truck rest stops in the states of Florida, etc.) while the drivers wore or used truck safety belts; and Maryland, Oregon, South Carolina, and Virginia.

Is there a blood test for Fibromyalgia?

Is there a blood test for Fibromyalgia? If not, How do they determine if you have it? Thanks
|Sat, 04-13-2013 - 10:12pm
I wish there was a blood test, but sadly, there isn't. It's more a process of elimination; you get tested for arthritis, lupus, anemia, etc. If all of that is negative, then you may be referred to a specialist, such as a rheumatologist or neurologist. At some point, you will have someone give you a Tender Point Test. This is an explaination of that: http://www.fmnetnews.com/fibro-basics/diagnosis
It can REALLY hurt to have a doc press on all these points! My Chinese med doc will sometimes do acupuncture on some of them, which actually does improve my symptoms, but to find the right spot, he'll press down and nearly bring me to tears at times. There isn't any other diagnostic tool available yet, so it can take a while to get a diagnosis. Since FM can mirror a lot of other things, like Lupus, MS, RA, anemia, depression, etc, it can take years for some people to be diagnosed, which is pretty depressing when you think about it. BUT, don't dispair! If you feel that it is likely you DO have FM, talk to your doc. If she isn't comfortable diagnosing you, have her refer you to someone who is more familiar with fibro. It's important to rule out some of the more serious disease first, then to get started on a treatment plan and find what works best for you. The sooner you know what you're dealing with, the sooner you can work towards feeling better. However, there are some things you can do right away that will start to help you no matter what the docs find, such as starting a gentle exercise program, eating a healthy diet, getting into a good sleep routine, and finding effective ways to deal with stress.
Here is the link to the fibromyalgia information here on iVillage:
Take a look around, read, investigate, and get informed before your next doctor visit. If there's anything we can help you with, please feel free to come here anytime! (((HUGS)))

Daily entries from the 17th century London diary
L&M Companion says he's a rich friend of Sandwich and has been advising him financially since the 50s. "As an M.P. (elected Nov. 1640, 1660) he was active in financial and fiscal business and belonged to the same moderate, Prebyterian group as the Crews. His wife (d. 1670) was Elizabeth Cole, once laundress to Charles I."
Warrington has the following: "Sir William Wheler, of Westminster, was created a baronet 11th Augus 1660, with remainder to his cousin, Charles Wheler, who succeeded to the honour upon his death. He was then M.P. for Queensborough".
Sir William's wife, in fact, was the mysterious personage who held on to a cache of jewels for Charles I, who
seems to have been hiding them from Parliament, and who distributed them to his children later.See Masson's *Life of Milton*.

apache configuration
Ok here's the deal I learned how to protect some directories that require username and password to gain access. Now I've changed the password several times along with the username and still no luck. Now here's the thing that puzzles me, for the information that I've been able to gather everyone states this command- htpasswd -c /path/to/passwords/passwd username but when I use that command I keep get an error. So I tried this- htpasswd -c /path/directory/.htpasswd username and that worked. Now when I click on the link for the directory I get a username and password pop-up. I enter in the info, and nothing happens it keeps coming back blank as though the info I gave it is not correct. What is it the I don't have correct? Also perhaps this might help for the apache config?
<Directory /path/to/directory>
AuthUserFile /path/to/.htpasswd
AuthName Protected
AuthType Basic
require valid-user
Allow 127.0.0.1
Allow 192.168.1.*
I also have in the .htpasswd file the path as the location of the .htpasswd file. I also believe I chmod the password file with a 644, and the .htaccess file as well. As matter of fact I just tested those files with 777 and still nothing. So what am I missing in the configuration?
I also changed the ownership and groups to apache for the protected directory before any of this.

Pretty, not comfy
"For 80 dollars I would expect the shoe to be somewhat comfortable. Not the case here. There is nothing terribly wrong with them but the foot bed doesn't have much cushion and I could not see wearing these any longer than I had to. I have fairly narrow feet and I purchased the 6.5 as usual. They were way too big. Not sure if I will try to exchange for smaller. They are pretty -more of a garnet red than bright red. I could see them being good for a special occasion to go with a fancy gown, but not for much use otherwise."

Nike and Morrisons first brands to launch Weve mobile ads
Nike and Morrisons will be the first brands to run mobile marketing campaigns simultaneously across the Vodafone, EE and O2 networks via the Weve joint venture.
Pizza Hut: previously run mobile ads with O2
The brands will run activity later this week spanning all three networks after Weve added Vodafone to its mobile advertising and commerce platform.
Morrisons and Nike will be able to contact 15m mobile users via Weve, using location-based, text and video messages.
O2 customers account for the bulk of the 15m users as a result of the network's long-running O2 More mobile ad platform, which has previously worked with Pizza Hut among other brands.
Weve is in the process of developing additional offerings, including display advertising and NFC-based loyalty services.
The announcement comes as Morrisons seeks to rapidly develop its digital proposition through the launch of non-food ecommerce sites. Speculation is growing that the retailer will launch an online grocery site.
Meanwhile, Nike continues to trial innovations, and recently hired Burberry's social media chief, Musa Tariq, to develop its communications.
Nancy Cruickshank, launch chief executive at Weve, said she hoped to move mobile beyond a platform for 'one-off' drives, and instead make it a platform for 'ground-breaking, innovative and long-term campaigns'.
Brands are still unable to reach consumers using either the Three, Virgin Mobile or Tesco Mobile networks via Weve because they are not yet part of the joint venture.
It is understood the trio have baulked at the tens of millions of pounds of investment that is required for them to become partners.
However, they remain in discussions with Weve about a lower-level service relationship, which would lead to brands being able to contact every UK mobile with a single campaign.
Weve has today (5 March) appointed David Sear as its permanent chief executive to replace Cruikshank, who will remain at the company part time until the end of March.
Sear was previously the divisional managing director of Travelex's global business payments business.
