Licensed Practical Nurses: A Dying Breed?
Just last week, local media reported that Schuylkill Medical Center-South Jackson Street, located in Pottsville, PA, decided to phase out all LPN roles within the next six months. LPNs will be encouraged with the aid of existing tuition reimbursement programs to pursue education to become RNs. Another option for the LPNs is to move into nursing aide positions with lower pay.
Across the country, organizations are wondering whether the LPN meshes with the direction acute care delivery is headed. In some areas of the country, staff shortages mean the LPN in acute care cannot be abandoned. However, as healthcare delivery changes and hospitals streamline care delivery models, organizations are acutely aware they will need staff with higher levels of education to provide the nursing care needed by hospital patients.
Moving away from LPNs must be handled with care. Depending on the number of LPNs an organization employs, the move could be contentious if not handled with tact. Some organizations have faced the threat of age discrimination suits from LPNs angry at being pushed out.
Others believe that pursuing designation as an ANCC Magnet Recognition Program® (MRP) facility—a designation of nursing excellence—involves doing away with the LPN. The popular nursing website Allnurses.com has featured discussions where LPNs believed pursuing MRP designation would get them fired. In fact, the MRP program has no requirements for RN-only care models.
Comments are moderated. Please be patient.
Joanna Schlabotz (5/22/2013 at 6:29 AM)
I just read an article that linked to this one and I must say I'm appalled at the misinformation and defaming of LPNs. To even mention the subject of a process that goes on in one's mind (that would be "thinking" Rebecca, critical or otherwise) as something that can be measured shows a decided lack of the same in the author. In short, Rebecca, I believe this site is most likely sponsored by someone with a stake in the issue. Sometimes it takes time to peel the onion, but it will be done nonetheless for the benefit of unknowing readers who are unaware of how unscrupulous these groups can be.
Daniel W. Graham, CDCA (4/3/2013 at 6:55 PM)
With all do respect I have to disagree with this report from this journalist in regards to this statement. With most nurse practice acts it does have what R.N.'s and L.P.N.'s responsibilities are with respect to assessment, planning, planning, implementing, and evaluating. A R.N. is not responsible for an L.P.N.'s practice and the Magnet program does not exclude L.P.N.'s. Providers and practitioners please check facts before you believe what anyone tells you. I have worked with L.P.N.'s in surgery, I.C.U., Labor and Delivery and many more specialized areas in acute care. Use your critical thinking before you read and believe everything you hear or read.

The New York City Police Department continues to be worried about credit card-skimming devices being placed on ATMs and other machines across the five boroughs, and NY1 has learned that police are investigating complaints of residents who say their credit cards were compromised after using Muni Meters. NY1's Dean Meminger filed the following report.
As more or more people use their credit and debit cards at Muni Meters, there are more opportunities for sneaky criminals.
"I refuse to use my credit card due to that fact, people can steal your identity," said one person. "So that's why I carry a bunch of quarters around. I have like $5 in quarters wherever I go."
The New York City Police Department says definitely keep a look out.
"When you're using a Muni Meter, it could be somebody looking over your shoulder, somebody next to you. It could be somebody across the street with a camera. It could be somebody across the street sitting in a car with binoculars," said Inspector James Klein of the NYPD Crime Prevention Section.
NY1 has learned that officers at the 61st Precinct in Brooklyn are investigating at least three reports of people saying their cards were compromised after using Muni Meters. Officers haven't found any skimming devices or cameras connected to the meters, but City Councilman Mark Treyger of Brooklyn has been worried about this issue for a long time.
"We have to make sure that this technology that we're asking residents to use is safe, safe for their use and to prevent fraud from occurring," Treyger said.
The NYPD's crime prevention team says it is heavily focused on preventing fraud. In addition to incidents at bank ATMs, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority in recent months has found skimming devices placed on ticket and MetroCard machines that copy information from the magnetic strip on the back of debit cards. Secret cameras are often placed nearby to captured the PIN code a person enters. Police say look for those cameras and any equipment that appears suspicious.
"Swipe your card, but first jiggle the device to make sure it's not affixed by, usually, they affix it by tape. Make sure it's not loose, it doesn't come off," Klein said. "If it's loose, stop, call 911. The police will respond."
Police are trying track down international groups that are often running these setups.
"These rings are organized crime. They come from Eastern European countries, for the most part, Albania, Romania," Klein said. "They'll fly here to New York, and then they'll go to Chicago, then they'll go to L.A., and they'll make their rounds around the country, and they switch teams, they switch players on the teams, and then they'll fly back out."
The best advice is to cover your PIN code when entering it and don't use machines that look like they have been altered.

Custom Aircraft Cabinets Project Highlights Development Activity Along Landers-Warden Roads
Posted 10/8/2012 12:00 am
Updated 2 years ago
The U.S. 67-167 corridor in North Little Rock and Sherwood is hosting a round of new construction and retail redevelopment.
The commercial projects, a mixture of industrial, hotel, office and restaurants, are scattered along Landers Road on the east and Warden Road on the west.
The biggest of the bunch is the redevelopment of the former National Home Center at 5510 Landers Road in Sherwood. Custom Aircraft Cabinets is investing $5.9 million to buy and convert the 194,500-SF complex into its new home.
"This is perfect for us," said Mike Gueringer, co-owner of Custom Aircraft Cabinets.
The company has outgrown its North Little Rock facilities, a 38,100-SF plant at 10015 Firestone Lane and leased 6,200-SF finishing shop at 12819 MacArthur Drive.
In addition to relocating its 142 employees, the specialized woodworking and upholstery manufacturer intends to add 150 jobs during the next two years.
The 15.5-acre Sherwood property gives the firm elbow room to accommodate the growth. The partners hope to be fully operational at the Sherwood location by mid-December.
"We just want to blink and be in here," said Paul Reesnes, CAC co-owner. "We have to move everything."
Accompanying Custom Aircraft Cabinets in the move from Firestone Lane is Reliable Fire Protection.
Reesnes and Gueringer are investors in Reliable Fire along with Mark Hall and Wallace Reed, who oversee operations.
Reliable will occupy about 5,000 SF on the north end of the former National Home Center.
The project was most recently called Stock Building Supply, the company that bought NHC out of bankruptcy in 2010.
The Sherwood relocation marks a half-dozen expansions since Custom Aircraft was launched in 1989 in spartan quarters.
"Our office space [in the new location] is bigger than the garage space we started with," Reesnes said.
The largest new commercial construction project in the corridor also represents a retail redevelopment.
Kana Hotel Group of Knoxville, Tenn., is developing a Courtyard by Marriott at 4339 Warden Road in North Little Rock.
The four-story, 98-room project will replace a vacant Circuit City that was razed.
Land and construction costs alone total $6 million.
"We plan on opening in August 2013," said Alpesh Patel, chief executive officer of Kana Hotel Group.
The hotel, KHG's first in Arkansas, will employ 30 full-time workers. EBCO General Contractors Ltd. of Cameron, Texas, will employ about 50 during its construction.
The project is among three other hotels KHG intends to roll out next year: SpringHill Suites by Marriott in Ridgeland, Miss., Homewood Suites by Hilton in Mobile, Ala., and Embassy Suites in Knoxville, Tenn.
KHG operates 22 hotels in nine states: Tennessee, eight; Alabama, North Carolina and Mississippi, three each; and Connecticut, Illinois, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Texas, one each.
Office, Eateries & More
The former Harley Davidson project at 4300 Landers Road in North Little Rock was transformed into medical office space for OrthoSurgeons.
The group of doctors includes William Hefley Jr., Joe Crow, Alina Voinea, Larry Nguyen, Jason Stewart and Scott Bowen.
The 10,000-SF facility was revamped as part of a $1.5 million redevelopment.
Three restaurants, one new and two redeveloped, are part of this year's roster of Warden-Landers activity.
Construction of a 6,200-SF Buffalo Wild Wings is moving forward at the northwest corner of Warden Road and Silver Creek Drive in Sherwood.
The $2 million development is across the highway from the Custom Aircraft Cabinets project.
The former Roadhouse Grill at 3510 Landers Road in North Little Rock is undergoing remodeling to become the third David's Burgers location in central Arkansas. The $800,000 restaurant development will join DB eateries in Little Rock and Conway.
Newk's Express Cafe has been operational for a couple months at the former Shorty Small's location at 4317 Warden Road in North Little Rock. That makeover weighed in at $550,000.
A wildcard in the mix is a recreational development in the planning stages for the wetlands behind River City RV at 6721 Warden Road in Sherwood.
"We're going to create this nice little trail along the creek," said Kelly Coughlin, economic development director for Sherwood. "We hope to eventually do 3.9 miles. We're going to figure out some way to do it."
Planned for the first stage is a 476-foot boardwalk to keep visitors high and dry above the soggy bottoms. Coughlin hopes to get the Turtle Bay project moving with grant money.

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama is heading to a crumbling Hudson River bridge to try to pressure Congress into giving America's roads, bridges and ports an infusion of cash.
The Tappan Zee Bridge outside New York City is in dire need of replacement nearly six decades after being built. When he visits the bridge Wednesday, Obama will call on lawmakers to back his plan to keep the nation's infrastructure from falling apart. He'll also promote efforts to cut red tape and delays in permitting.
Wednesday night Obama will headline a pair of high-dollar fundraisers for Democrats.
He will spend the night in Manhattan before attending Thursday's dedication of the National September 11 Memorial & Museum at the World Trade Center.

Watch Shahs of Sunset
The reality television show, Shahs of Sunset currently airs on the Bravo cable network in the U.S. The show features a group of Iranian Americans who live in the Beverly Hill area. The story line involves examining how the group manages career development and their social lives, as well as traditional family demands.
Golnesa "GG" Gharachedaghi, featured on the show, has a total of eight tattoos, one of which is on the inside of one of her lips. Financially supported by her wealthy Muslim father, she is unemployed. Much of the time, she is seen lunching during the day with friends. Nights find her socializing in the Hollywood and Los Angeles club scene.
Reza Farahan is of Jewish Muslim heritage and was raised in Beverly Hills. Born in Tehran, Iran, he is an openly gay 38 year old real estate agent in Los Angeles. He often struggles with prejudice and gossip pertaining to his sexuality. He was motivated to be a part of the show upon learning of suicides of bullied teenagers, to portray positive images of both Middle Easterners and gay people.
One show reveals that Farahan's father had to convert to Islam in order to marry his mother. After divorcing his mother, his father went back to his Jewish family in New York. It is also revealed that Farahan's grandmother rejected his father as not being Jewish. Reza identifies as Jewish primarily and his family supports him, despite pressures to ostracize him.
Mike Shouhed is of Jewish Persian decent and works as a commercial real estate agent in the Los Angeles area. After financial losses in the Vegas market, he returned back to his L.A. home to reestablish himself.
Sammy Younai is a Jewish Persian residential real estate developer in the Beverly Hills area, specializing in multi-million dollar houses.
Asa Soltan Rahmati is a Pesian Muslim artist and singer involved in Venice's art scene. Having fled from Iran as a girl, she lived in Europe before relocating to the Los Angeles area as a teenager.
Mercedeh "MJ" Javid is a 34 year old real estate agent living in Hollywood Hills.
David Golshan is a comedian living in Beverly Hills and is Reza Farahan's best friend.
The first season garnered ratings for the season finale with a 20 percent increase over previous episodes. Bravo has subsequently announced that the series has been renewed for a second season.

"The thing I like the most about the Boardroom is their staff is always there when we need them to be, but not constantly hovering around when we just don't need them around. It's the perfect amount of visibility and they provide everything we need in order to function the way we want to."

"I like that the Boardroom is a small business. It's better than the big corporate executive suite companies, because I know the owner and the staff well, and they know me and my business well. There is a sense of community here."
- Dan Smink
Harbor Financial Group www.HarborFinancialGroup.com
This is a great work environment and you have no idea how much easier my life is after I got an office here at the Boardroom! Nathan and his team are fantastic people and I am really grateful I met them all. This is a fantastic idea and it is a great place to help small business look extremely professional and still feel like family.
I want to sincerely extend my thank you to Nathan, Gina, Jenny and all the other people that work here and make the Boardroom this wonderful place."

"I appreciate the consistent professional handling of calls at the office. Our callers never feel as though they are talking to a 'switchboard.' As a small staff, that is really nice to know."

"We look to reduce operating costs any way possible. We are happy and satisfied members of The Boardroom Executive Suites. The Boardroom has created tremendous cost savings over a traditional office. Not only do we save money… we have an office manager and receptionist included. YellowSchmello is happy with the convenient (to say nothing of Class A) location. It is a great place to bring clients – as well as to meet with our virtual staff. If you are looking for a place to office we highly recommend Nathan Jansch's Cherry Creek Office location. "

The consolidated Wheezy thread.:
1 Wheezy, Tue, 2nd Oct '12 1:04:47 AM from Tampa, FL. Again.
(That Guy You Met Once)I think most of you know me. For those of you who don't, I write - usually comics, but sometimes short stories or nonfiction essays/advice/rants - and draw, although most of my drawings that aren't directly tied to my writing goes in the Visual Arts forum. Anyway, I work on so many things - and flip so many projects in and out of hiatus - that continuing to maintain threads for each one would be stupid. So here's every writing-based project I work on, wrapped into one thread.
So, here's what I've finished so far...
And what am I working on now?
Finally, here's some more stuff that might happen soon. I think. Maybe.

(That Guy You Met Once)I have a problem. Or, more accurately, Ganzfeld has a problem.
Or, more accurately, Ganzfeld is a problem.
Or, more accurately, Ganzfeld is one huge collection of problems. The first one is that developing it into a comic will cost money. $40 a page, to be precise. I think I'm decently OK at drawing, but I'm not anywhere near the level it'll take to draw a professional-level comic, so I'm trying to save up to hire this guy. Yes, I know 40/page is amazing for that art quality, but I'm still having a problem with it. If I wanted to get this done without major Schedule Slippage, I'd have to take a second job. I'm actually kind of considering this, but it wouldn't leave me any time to write. I could write it as a novel, but I honestly don't think a noir Urban Fantasy about psychics would find an audience in any medium except comics. Another issue is the first chapter: Warning: Highlighting any of the following will spoil a large part of the series to shit: Unlike the pilot, which revolved entirely around two characters, the full ... will feature an Ensemble Cast. The first chapter centers around Mrs. Black, possibly one of the most powerful living telekinetics on Earth, although we don't get any clue to that until the end, and it's not fully revealed until another chapter. At the beginning of the story, she's almost 80, and has spent the last fifteen years in retirement. The BPA's been tracking her for almost as long, and they've recently spotted her at a casino she buses to once every few months. Our story takes place on the day they decide to bring her in. They need to find a way to bring her in - in public, because the threat of breaking The Masquerade is the only thing that will reliably keep a psychic from using their powers - but without making it obvious that she's being illegally arrested by a government agency. So, from here, I've thought of two directions the story could take: Direction 1 They simply walk up to her, tap her on the shoulder, and say that they're from the government, she's going to follow them, and they dare her to do anything about it in front of hundreds of people and tens of security camera. This would be a very sensible plan, but it's also boring. This series is already more dialog-heavy than most of my other work, and it needs yet another scene of two people standing around talking like it needs a hole in its metaphorical head. Direction 2

(That Guy You Met Once)It's been a while since I updated this, hasn't it? Anyway... Untitled creepypasta about two guys who create a webshow. It's about halfway down the page. And a story/poem/thing. Satan
Contacting it is much simpler than you would imagine.
Thats why so few people have done it. Sacrificing lives doesnt work. Blood is just another earthly liquid. It has no use for corpses.
It does not eat. Also ineffective are wearing black, lighting candles, drawing sigils, reading incantations, or playing any form of music.
It has no concern for the decorations you think itll like. To reach it, just focus on it.
Do not think of goats, snakes, red men with horns, or any such folktales.
Man puts a familiar face on what he cant understand. Learn fear.
Immerse your mind in it. Fear of death. Fear of the unknown. Fear of God. Fear of anything. Hate.
It doesnt matter at what you direct it. A man, a woman, a race, a gender, or yourself.
Just hate. Hate until it drives out all rational thought. Hate until its all you know. Study atrocities.
Both the great ones of history and the tiny ones committed daily.
Find beauty in them, and even more the motives behind them.
Tell yourself its right to do those things. Then, in its own time, itll come to you.
Not in a cloud of smoke, not from a burning pit in the ground.
Not as a goat, or a snake, or a red man with horns. But as a tiny voice in your head, calling you.
It does not speak, it just manipulates thoughts.
Most people dont recognize it.
But if you've done all you need to do, you'll know this is what you're looking for. Don't ask its true name.
You will hear the screams of every creature that has ever lived, and feel the pain of anyone or anything ever murdered, tortured, or eaten alive.
Noise and suffering beyond the human mind. No one survives that.
Those who dont die of shock or heart failure, throw themselves off buildings and onto highways. Some die by their own bare hands.
Theyre the lucky ones. If youve made it to this point, theres no need to ask yourself why youre doing this.
If youve made it to this point, you have only one purpose. You want to see whats behind all the made-up creatures and tawdry stories of death we use for our cheap imitation of fear. You want to see whats behind fear itself, behind sadness, behind hate, behind pain.
The thing from which all of those are born.
So simple, words cant describe it. We call it darkness, but its nothing like a color.
We give it hundreds of names because none can label it. There is only one deal you can make with the devil. Only one thing it can show you. Itself. A sight the mind can't grasp. Not while tied to human eyes, human ears, a human brain.
In order for you to see it, it must first tear you out.
And make you a part of it. It will be all you see, hear, feel, and think.
You will get your wish.

(That Guy You Met Once)I recently dug up a "letter" I first posted in Writers' Block Daily over a year ago, then reposted it on Facebook. Here you go. I'm currently working on something else in the same vein. As a side note, I've shelved Ganzfeld in favor of finishing Yume-Hime, which was started way earlier and has been on hiatus much longer.

Satisfactory Academic Progress
In accordance with federal guidelines, satisfactory academic progress for financial aid purposes is maintained by completing a minimum of 67% of all attempted classes and by maintaining a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.00 at Menlo College. Please note that if a full-time student only completes 67% of his or her attempted classes, it will take 6 years to complete a bachelor's degree, and there can be limitations on what, if any, financial aid funds an undergraduate student can continue to receive after 4 years of enrollment.
The Office of Financial Aid reviews the academic progress of financial aid recipients at the end of every semester. Students who fail to maintain satisfactory academic progress will be placed on financial aid probation for one semester. Students can receive financial aid during the probationary semester. At the end of the probationary semester, students who do not meet satisfactory academic progress will be ineligible for future financial aid until the minimum requirements are again met. Students will be notified in writing if they are on financial aid probation and if they become ineligible for financial aid.
There are a few circumstances in which students may have a case to appeal. For more information, refer to the financial aid section of the Menlo College catalog or contact the Office of Financial Aid.

I like what I'm hearing. Our blessing is surely near now.
12/12/2011 09:37
It's on now. They were almost an hour late.
12/12/2011 09:38
This conference will most likely lead to more delays and we won't see the RV till 12-21-2012.
12/12/2011 09:39
Can you say partnership and mutual interest?
12/12/2011 09:49
It is also on http://www.iqdCalls.com very interesting!
12/12/2011 09:50
Are they going to discuss the DINAR RV?
12/12/2011 09:59
If you are paying attention you have to be VERY happy with what is being said.

12/12/2011 10:07
Wow, not a single word regarding the currency. That seems to leave us no closer, and if anything. With more speculation.
12/12/2011 10:08
This was a dissapointment

12/12/2011 10:09
well it was a great broadcast .Allaying any fears that there is covert stuff going on behind the scenes. All seems to be in the very capable hands of President Maliki and President Obama

Did I miss any thing important, cause not one word was mentioned,or spoken about Dinars or RV that I heard in the talk .
12/12/2011 10:13
Deidre U didnt miss anyting... it was a bunch of sh*t that wasn't important. they stated the obvious. the us is pulling out and selling Iraq more planes and guns!!
Listen, we all know owning Iraqi Dinar is a VERY smart investment. However in order to ensure you are in line to truly recive the full amount of this incredible blessing YOU MUST OWN ENOUGH DINAR TO MAKE IT WORTHWHILE. In other words... you have to look at the rate when it RVs as well as the window of time to cash in PLUS the taxes you will have to pay ans ask yourself how much will you get to keep.
12/12/2011 10:18
Wow that suck
12/12/2011 10:18
Stop spamming please

How can Iraq be a sovereign nation with useless currency?
12/12/2011 10:44
The speach today with O and M was VERY revealing. I believe we are closer than ever before to this RV.
Derek Robinson
12/12/2011 10:54
I can't get anything. Can someone please update us? Thanks!
12/12/2011 11:04
Here's a link to read the overview of what O and M talked about earlier today in live press conference.
12/12/2011 11:31
WOW.... we have dinar pumpers here too.
Mike Berman
12/12/2011 12:09
Thank you Denise I think you said it best and to the point !! everytime "O" said they were now sovereign I cringed a bit more. I lost count at 16 times he said they were now sovereign. Hopefully These 2 GURU'S are correct. it would appear all has been leading up to this.
12/12/2011 12:30
Don't want to bring anyone down, I really hope it turns out to be great news and we can all cash in soon! I am more than ready.
12/12/2011 12:49
Prayer works. Collective prayer works even better. I urge everyone to pray daily for this blessing to happen.
12/12/2011 13:17
I predict the rv will happen sometime after this moment.
12/12/2011 13:23
Still updating our website. But when the Dinar RV's in dont forget to buy a pool from us. Go Dinar.

12/12/2011 14:09
Just like watching a pot of water before it begins to boil you need to be patient, walk away and just be prepared! Keep investing and go on with your life, it will happen but not on our time obviously. God is never in a rush, Sit back and relax. Riches will soon be ours! (just be sure to be giving with the gifts you recieve)
12/12/2011 17:06
Jesus never hurried and He was ALWAYS
12/12/2011 17:11
I would like to know exactly how much tax will be taken out of 1 M dinars @ 1:1 RV? I have read 41%. What about 35% long-term capital gains and 15% short-term capital gains? Also, the bank's fee for cashing in? Consider this, also. What would one have left after all of these fees are taken out of 1 M @ 1:1 RV?
12/12/2011 17:21
When Bush said something to the effect, that the war would pay for itself, maybe he didn't mean cash (dinar rv)~~ maybe he meant oil. Is anyone thinking that we will be paid back in oil and not money? I mean billions of gallons of oil. I'm starting to wonder. Comment please.
12/12/2011 17:26
What will the banks be charging us for cashing in ~~ considering the four big banks ~~ Bank of America, CitiBank, Wells Fargo and Chase? Will they all have the same fee or will this vary? What is a good percentage spread for this?
12/12/2011 19:25
Dallas pool companies dallas landscape companies Thanks for the submit. Go RV so I wont have to work anymore.
12/12/2011 20:13
I just found one of the finest pieces of land for my family. 100 acres right next to creek with trout fishing. Sure would be nice if this thing hit. I got my dinar the hard way. I was over there in '04-05. That is when the shit was really hitting the fan.

Just MORE of the same! Build you up, up, up, and then MAJOR DISAPOINTMENT!!!
12/15/2011 21:15
I joined Blanche's website only recently and I REALLY want for this to happen but have to ask this kind of negative question. What is to stop the Iraqi government from saying "you have 90 days to trade your old dinar into new dinar" and not at a rate that would make us even a penny in profit? That is what happened with the old "Saddam money" before it worthless except as a novelty. Could happen but nobody talks about it.

Tiger has a cub...
Less than 24 hours after Tiger Woods finished second at the U.S. Open on Father's Day, his wife gave birth to their first child, a daughter. He announced Monday night on his website that Sam Alexis Woods was born early Monday morning.
"Both Elin and Sam are doing well and resting peacefully," Woods wrote. "We want to thank our doctors and the hospital staff for all their dedicated and hard work. This is truly a special time in our lives and we look forward to introducing Sam to our family and friends over the next few weeks. We thank everyone for their well wishes and continued respect of our privacy."
Woods said he would miss a major if it meant seeing the birth of his child. Now he won't have to, but it's not clear how his upcoming schedule will be affected.
Woods finished a shot behind Angel Cabrera on Sunday to finish second in a major for the second time this year.
He's scheduled to host a tournament in Washington, D.C., from July 5-8. The British Open starts July 19, and the PGA Championship begins Aug. 9 at Southern Hills Country Club in Tulsa.
"I'm pacing myself already just because of the fact that I have a baby coming up," Woods said about two weeks ago. "I don't know how much I'm going to play after that or how much I'm going to play before that. A lot of that is depending on what happens and the health of Elin and our child."
The past two years have been life-changing for Woods, who has won 12 majors in his brilliant career.
He turned 30 in December 2005, and the following May his father, Earl, died at age 74 after a long bout with cancer.
A month later, Woods failed to make the cut at the U.S. Open at Winged Foot. He came back to win the British Open in July and broke down in tears on the 18th green at Royal Liverpool, sobbing on the shoulder of his caddie.
In December, Woods went public with his wife's pregnancy. Last week, before the U.S. Open he talked about becoming a father.
"My practice sessions are going to have to be tailored around a little bit, have to move things around. But, you know, I don't really know how my game is going to be affected by it because I've never gone through it before," he said.
"All I know is that Elin and I are excited, and that this is far more important than any game of golf. This is an opportunity for us to raise our first child, and we're really looking forward to it."

The Lodge at Sea Island
|#1 in Best Georgia Hotels
|Hotel Class 5.0-star
|Critic Rating Excellent
|Guest Rating
U.S. News Review
According to recent guests, The Lodge at Sea Island is Southern luxury at its finest. While staying here, travelers will have access to championship golf courses and a choice between any one of six decadent eateries, not to mention a new food truck. And then the rooms — oh the rooms! — are opulently decorated with Oriental rugs, spacious bathrooms with deep-soaking tubs and 24-hour butler service. If you're having trouble deciding between the Lodge and its sister property, The Cloister at Sea Island, keep in mind that the latter often sees more families. On the other hand, previous guests say that the smaller Lodge's quieter ambience might better suit couples. Another perk for romance-seekers is the on-site restaurant, Colt & Alison, which serves up prime cuts of beef and fresh seafood in an intimate atmosphere. The resort sits on the southern tip of Sea Island, Ga. The closest airport, Malcolm McKinnon (SSI), is less than a 10-minute drive away, while Savannah is about 64 miles north.

Bitter melon juice is the most therapeutic juice of all because of the natural contents of the bitter melon fruit. Bitter melon is a vine belonging to the Cucurbitaceae family, and therefore a cousin of the cucumber, squash and pumpkin. It does resemble the green elongated cucumber, except for its warts, bumps and ridges. Its seeds are white when unripe and red when ripe. The seeds are very bitter and they can make one feel nauseated upon eating.
Despite the bitterness, this "wonder" vine offers so many therapeutic and nutritional benefits.
First, bitter melon, a.k.a. bitter gourd, is packed with so many vitamins and minerals. It is rich in zinc, phosphorous, calcium, beta carotene, folate, sodium and Vitamins C, B1, B2, and B3. The USDA National Nutrient database reports that bitter melon contains Energy (17 Kcal), niacin, pyridoxine, Riboflavin, and Thiamin. No other vegetable comes close when it comes to nutrients, which is why this fruit-vegetable is so valuable to those looking to improve or maintain their health.
Juicing the bitter melon preserves all the benefits but not the repulsive bitter taste. While bitter melon tea, juice extracts and juices are available online and in grocery stores, making your own bitter melon juice is easy and even more nutritional. Remember to juice only the green melons. A bitter melon that has turned yellow, orange or red is too bitter and old.
Pick the best green melons and cut lengthwise to remove the seeds. Be careful not to include a seed since a single piece could make your juice far too bitter. Bitter gourd seeds may cause nausea and diarrhea, since the flavor is concentrated in them.
Chop the halved melons crosswise to make thin cubes. Soak in cold water for 30 minutes. Liquefy the cubes using a juicing machine. Before pouring into a container, strain the liquefied melons using cheesecloth to take away tiny solid bits. Squeeze the cloth to get more juice into your container or pitcher; store in the refrigerator for a few minutes or until cold to your liking.
If still too bitter for you, add sugar or honey to your self-made bitter gourd juice.
Consume all within a week and not more than three months. Two ounces of bitter melon juice a day are good for a person with diabetes.
Bitter melon is popular for its ability to control or manage diabetes mellitus. It contains natural insulin-like compounds. It triggers enzymes that activate muscle cells and tissues, which are rather weak due to diabetes.
Naturally grown in tropical and subtropical countries, the bitter melon is believed to have the ability to treat a number of illnesses, including breast cancer, cholera, and jaundice. It aids the digestive system, purifies blood and improves stamina. Modern scientific research is now studying the potential of bitter gourd to inhibit HIV infection.
While still best when eaten in its natural state, bitter melon is widely sold in Western countries only in Asian farm markets and online. Also, the extremely bitter flavor could be unpleasantly new to the Western taster's tongue. This is why there are ready-made packs of bitter melon juice available online, as well as tea, capsule and other supplements.
