Sleep Apnea
Take a night flight into the restless world of sleep apnea. You'll see what sleep apnea looks like as a sleeper repeatedly stops breathing, gasps for breath, and awakens just enough to start breathing again. View, from the inside, how collapsed tissues block off breathing. Fly down into the myriad branches of the airways. Dr. Katherine Sharkey of Brown University and Dr. Cynthia Geyer of Canyon Ranch explain airway blockage and why it's usually due to anatomical features, such as an enlarged neck. You'll see the regions of the brain affected by sleep apnea. Obesity can cause sleep apnea, but evidence points to a reverse relationship as well: sleep apnea disrupts hormones, increases hunger, and raises insulin and glucose levels—leading to diabetes. Get close-up looks at other organs affected by sleep apnea: the blood vessels, heart, and lungs. You'll see polysomnography—overnight sleep monitoring—in action. Successful treatment gives the sleep apnea sufferer a new lease on life.

The ultimate RSS feed: Twingly screensaver shows global blog activity
Although we normally don't write about screensavers, this one by Primelabs has a cool factor mammoth enough to qualify as an exception. Twingly, as it's somewhat perplexingly called, shows blogging activity all across the world. Judging from the video that the company put on YouTube, links to posts scroll along the left side of the screen, pointing to where they originated on the globe in the center.
When the data flow is too big (which probably happens all the time), the link list won't contain every single blog post, so don't feel bad if you can't see your own — you're still adding to the yellow dots on the map. And if you ever see a post that says, "Poop on all humans," it's probably those darn pigeon bloggers again.
PC users interested in pretending they're in an episode of Jake 2.0 can download the saver for free from the Twingly site (no Mac version, sadly). Check out the video preview after the jump.

Helpful Things to Know About Debt Consolidation and Credit Counselling
Credit Rating 101
We have collected information from both of the consumer reporting agencies (credit bureaus), as well as our own research to try to provide a full picture on credit files and credit scores, including those little known "insider" secrets.
Topics at a glance:
- What information is kept on my credit file?
- How long is information kept on my file?
- What is a credit "score"?
- How can my credit score affect my life?
- What factors affect my credit score?
- How do I raise my credit score?
Payday Loans
What is a payday loan?
A payday loan, or payday advance, is a short-term loan of usually 14 days, which you promise to pay back, plus fees, after you receive your next paycheque. The loan is often between 30-50% of the amount of your paycheque.
To qualify for a payday loan, you must provide proof that you have a regular income, a permanent address and a bank account. You will have to sign a loan agreement which states the loan interest, fees, and due date. Most of the time you will need to provide a post-dated cheque for the full loan amount including all fees and interest, or sign a form for a pre-authorized debit of your account on the loan due date.
How much do payday loans cost?
Did You Know?
You can and should order your credit report at least once per year. You can correct any errors, check for identity fraud, and know what your creditors know about you. There are two separate credit reporting agencies in Canada, Equifax Canada and TransUnion Canada, and each may have different information about you in their files, so we recommend you order your credit report from both agencies at least once per year (ordering your own report will not reduce your credit score or affect your report). A good idea is to order from one agency first and the second six months later in order to space your reports out and allow you to detect any problems sooner.
Your credit report is free if you request it by mail, fax, telephone, or in person and receive it by mail or in person. If you prefer to access it quickly online you will have to pay a fee. Your free report will not include your credit score, a 3-digit number that is calculated from your credit activity however, you can purchase your credit score if you prefer. See the credit agency websites for contact information and request your credit report today: TransUnion Canada and Equifax Canada.
At least one of Canada's Chartered Banks has inserted a provision in their personal banking agreements which reads: "(Bank) may apply for funds in any of your accounts (including joint accounts) against any liability owed to (bank) or its affiliates without prior notice." This provision is perhaps legally questionable, as if one party to a joint account owes money to the bank, and the other party makes deposits to the joint bank account; one would query the right of the bank to in effect attach the funds of one for the debt of another. The ethics of this provision, of course, is a whole other question.
Debt Settlement Alert
FCAC Consumer Alert - Debt Reduction Companies: Beware of "Too Good to Be True" Offers
We at Solutions Credit Counselling work only for our client – You. We do everything we can to save you money.
The purpose of this article is to advise our clients and the public regarding the differences between a Canadian Independent Debt Consolidation and Credit Counselling Agency such as Solutions, and an American Debt Settlement company. Remember, with respect to Debt Settlement companies: "If it sounds too good to be true then it probably is".
Canada has recently been inundated with American companies, offering "Debt Settlement" services. These questionable "Debt Reduction" operations have been investigated by the U.S. government and recent US legislative changes have forced "Debt Settlement" companies to cease operations in the US. However, many of these "Debt Settlement" companies are now targeting Canadian consumers with false claims of their ability to reduce debt by 40-80% in a short period of time and many Canadians are being lulled into believing these claims.

COPS: not the show
Arguing with my cop friend about this opinion piece from a recent NY Post declaring "open season on cops" she shared today. She goes all over the fucking place when I mention that policework is not the only occupation that requires accountability, but this was the last comment:
lol it's almost sad how people work themselves up into police conspiracy theories like we have all these big secrets. It laughable. Everything we do and say is a public record. I can't WAIT till the body camera thing shows the truth and backfires on everyone who thinks WE are the enemy. Lol it's actually laughable... People should be careful what they wish for Cuz they're gonna get it and video doesn't lie. And then since we are "civil servants" all our footage is also public record and free for the world to see... Bye bye privacy for everyone and then everyone can know how it feels to be filmed day in and day out. U want accountability? Me too! So say hello to big brother in the form of body worn cameras!
Do we really think this is bye-bye privacy? Aren't we all being filmed most of the time anyway? Is it weird that she tells me she's constantly paranoid about being killed by someone who thinks cops are horrible but then says people who think there's a police conspiracy are "laughable"?
Anyway, this will be my cop friend on Facebook repository since no one on her page ever jumps in to agree with me.

Celebrity Death Pool 2014
The rules are simple.
1. Pick 5 celebrities that you think will kick the bucket between January 1- December 31 2014
2. Only one person can choose a celebrity, so make sure you read the thread and pay attention to who has been picked.
3. Scores are calculated by subtracting the celebs age at the time of death from 100. (for example, if Miley Cyrus dies next year at the age of 21, 100-21=79 points)

President Obama presses lawmakers to extend tax cuts for the middle class, but getting Congress onboard could be a challenge this election year. As our Lori Chung reports, the economy will feel the impact whether lawmakers choose to act or not.
UNITED STATES -- Experts say it's hard to know exactly how much each person will pay if the tax cuts aren't extended, given deductions and exemptions and the like, but they say one way or another what lawmakers decide to do with the tax cuts will have a big effect on the economy.
"Right now, our top priority has to be giving middle class families and small businesses the security they deserve," President Obama said.
And President Obama says the way to do that is to extend Bush-era tax cuts, but only for some.
Obama said, "I'm calling on congress to extend the tax cuts for the 98 percent of Americans who make less than $250,000 for another year."
"If we don't do that, then on January, 1st 2013, each of those individuals will experience a significant increase in taxes," said Hugh Johnson, Hugh Johnson Advisors Chairman.
The tax cuts are set to expire at year's end. Financial Expert Hugh Johnson says if that happens ,the middle class will feel the pinch.
Johnson said, "We're talking about thousands of dollars, so yes, will you notice? You bet you'll notice."
In fact, Obama says some families could pay as much as $2,200 more in taxes. Instead, he wants the wealthiest Americans to go back to paying Clinton-era tax rates to help close the nation's deficit. But House republicans are expected to insist on cuts for all earners causing some to worry that a stalemate is ahead.
"If Congress does nothing, they will expire, everybody will have a tax increase next year and on top of that, we'll have some spending cuts that have to come in to play, so we'll really almost be walking off a cliff," said Steven Bouchey, Certified Financial Planner.
Johnson said, "It better be resolved because if it's not resolved, it's bad news for the U.S. economy."
Some economists warn that another recession could be ahead, depending on how this is handled. In the meantime, President Obama says he's hoping to convince lawmakers to move forward with the cut for the middle class, with plans to revisit cuts for top earners in the future.

Chocolate-powered Formula 3 race car hits the track
Willy Wonka, eat your heart out. The University of Warwick is testing a Formula 3 race car that is powered by chocolate. Cocoa-scented exhaust fumes - yum!
The WorldFirst race car is built mainly from potatoes and the race-legal steering wheel is made from carrots and other veggies. The seat is made with soybean-oil foam and covered with a flax fiber weave. This is the first Formula 3 racing car made from renewable and sustainable materials.
The car can reach speeds of 125mph around corners and will be hitting a race track later this week. Unfortunately, Formula 3 cars can't race on biodiesel, which is the only thing that keeps this car from meeting all Formula 3 racing standards. Guess I'll have to wait for licorice tires.
This is an excellent example of how cars, race boats and more can be safer for the environment. This biodiesel engine runs on waste chocolate and vegetable oil. Waste chocolate? Is there really such a thing? Bad chocolate is better than no chocolate, right?
Keep reading for a video of the car in action.

MicrodigitUK (16th August 2011), zag (16th August 2011)
Morning, Sorry if this has already been posted but could not find it. Had this email through late yesterday afternoon, regarding the results thought it may be of use! (nothing like last minute.com)
There are examination related issues that secondary schools need to aware of before proceeding with results analysis.
Important Note: None of these issues prevent examination results being downloaded and entered into your SIMS database.
It is recommended that schools should take the Summer Release, SIMS 7.140. However, all SIMS workstations must be running Microsoft .NET 4 Framework. Workstations without .NET 4 will no longer be able to run SIMS until they have this version installed.
For schools on the Summer Release, SIMS 7.140, an additional patch 16067 has been made available on SOLUS 2 & 3. This patch resolves the following:
• An issue was found where the columns on the 'Subject/Grade Analysis' report were repeating twice.
• The PI tables contained an issue where Grades 'U' and 'X' were counted twice for GCSE Double Awards
Schools that have already taken the Summer Release will need to use SOLUS to take patch 16067. Schools that take the Summer Release from now on using SOLUS 2 will take the patch as part of the upgrade process.
The patch is available in SOLUS 3 as a separate download.
For schools on the Spring Release, SIMS 7.138 and have circumstances where that they cannot upgrade to the Summer Release, patch 16068 can be made available on request from our service desk. This patch resolves the issues above and two additional ones addressed in the summer upgrade, namely:
• The 'Subject/Grade Analysis' report and 'Group Performance Analysis' report do not currently support double grades as they are linked to the incorrect Gradeset for GCSE Double Awards. The patch will update the Gradeset from JC F to JC15 to support this.
• The 'Group Performance Analysis' report contained an issue where Grades 'U' and 'X' were counted twice for GCSE Double Awards.
Subject/Grade Analysis reporting
It is recommended that 'All' is not chosen from the 'Level' option when printing the 'Subject/Grade Analysis' report. As an alternative, use should be made of 'Individual Levels'. If 'All levels' are required to be analysed then use the export button to enable you to perform your analysis using software such as Excel.
To clarify the situation regarding the analysis of BTEC results:
• It was initially thought that a patch 16021 would be required to adjust the BTEC grade set point scores. This is not the case.
• When schools have received and processed a BTEC results file or entered results manually, PI should be used to gather the results. The calculations undertaken by PI takes into account the different BTEC levels and give an accurate analysis of point scores.
• Be aware that if either Assessment Manager or the Performance Analysis modules are used to calculate BTEC point scores, there may be an issue with the underlying values in the grade set depending on the level being analysed. Further advice and clarification on this issue can be offered by our support desk.
• Schools that applied the original patch need take no further action.

This has been well documented on SupportNet.
I would advise everybody connected with exams to follow the Notices and Forums on SupportNet.
The same can be said of all aspects of SIMS! (And that is not decrying the support that is often given here!)

Another 2 dead in less than a year
The Ellis County Press
FERRIS – Nathan Moses, 30, and Melinda Ann Schene, 30, were found shot in their home Thursday morning, Jan. 28 on the 600 block of Valley View Lane.
"Someone came into the department and said there was blood splattered on the walls,"said Ferris Police Chief Frank Mooney.
"Right in the walkway there was a young man shot as you open the front door and in the kitchen a young female's body was discovered."
According to police, the couple had just moved in and had been living there only a few days.
"They both have been shot and it looks to be a pretty cut and dry case," said Mooney.
Ellis County Sheriff's Office was at the scene of the crime investigating.
"A search warrant was filed with the district clerks office and executed Friday," said Investigator Sam Love.
This is the second double homicide to occur in Ferris in less than a year.
Steven Taylor, 39, and Jeanine Johnson, 29, were found dead in their home on the 400 block of South Church Street last March.
"We had tons of info on them from last year but no leads as to who the killer was," said Chief Mooney.
Anyone with any information about either two separate killings is urged to call the Ferris Police Dept. at 972-544-2225.
