- Lightweight for portability
Product Overview
Mobility Transfer SafetySure Transfer Pivot Disk
SafetySure Transfer Pivot Disk
SafetySure Transfer Pivot Disk for an individual with impaired mobility from paralysis or limited upper body functions can use the SafetySure Transfer Pivot Disk (SST Pivot Disk) unassisted in a very efficient way. If the patient cannot use his/her upper extremities a helper will be needed.
When to use the SafetySure Transfer Pivot Disk
The SST Pivot Disk is designed for use by patients who are able to stand but cannot readily move their legs. For maximum support and safety for both the patient and the helper, we recommend that either a SST Belt or a SST Sling be used in conjunction with the SST Pivot Disc.
Placement of the SafetySure Transfer Pivot Disk
The SST Pivot Disk is placed on the floor with the label facing downwards. The patient's feet are to be positioned completely on the disk to facilitate a smooth transfer and reduce back strain on both patient and helper. The handle of the SST Pivot Disk should be placed facing the patient, to prevent interfering with the feet of the helper. The helper should place one of his/her feet on the disk to safely monitor and control the transfer. After using the SST Pivot Disk, it should immediately be removed from the floor to avoid accidents.
Advantages of the Transfer Pivot Disk
Because of the lightweight and convenient grip handle, the SST Pivot Disk is easy to use and carry. The SST Pivot Disk is made of three high quality polymer plates, one turning on top of the other. The SST Pivot Disk is also equipped with anti-glide tapes on both sides to prevent slipping on the floor or when a patient is standing on the SST Pivot Disk.
SafetySure Transfer Pivot Disk Primary Uses:
- Transfer Between a chair and a wheelchair
- Transfers between a wheelchair and a toilet
- Transfer between a chair or wheelchair and a bed
Transfer Between a chair and a wheelchair
The disk is "locked" in place when the helper places his/her heel comfortably on the floor and the rest of his/her foot firmly on the plate between the feet of the patient (fig.2). The patient wears a SST Belt and the helper holds on to the handles while guiding the patient through the transfer.
Transfers between a wheelchair and a toilet
Proper use of the SST Pivot Disk in this situation is identical to above, except it is safer and easier with two helpers, each wearing a SST Belt. As pictured in the illustration, the helper(s) can use the other, free hand(s) to help undress the patient before placing him/her on the toilet (fig. 1)
Transfer Between a bed and wheelchair
Before you move a patient from a bed to a wheelchair, you should make sure that the wheelchair is positioned as close to the bed as possible, with the wheels locked. (For better control and safety, always have the patient wear a SST Belt (fig. 2).

I have used the safety pivot disk since March 2012 to transfer my husband from his chair to the bedside commode and back. It is the most valuable tool I have. I believe it will definitely make your life a little easier and safer.

This disk is almost impossible to use for a car transfer. There is not enough room for you to stand in front of your mother and assist her with pivoting into the car. Your best bet is to use a slide board. Sometimes a longer one works better as it will give you a bit more room to work with since she won't have to be so close to the car. It's always best to have two people for transfers, especially with a heavy lift patient. Good luck

Do you have to have a helper, or can the pivot be used alone with a security pole to hold on to?

I would be afraid to let someone use the pivot disk alone with a pole to hold on to. That sounds dangerous for the patient.

The pivot disc can be used alone with a pole for support. It should not slide if you are putting weight directly in the middle of it. However, for safety, you could put a piece of dycem or nonslip grip underneath it. Of course, I would practice a few times with an assistant until you are proficient with transferring alone.

Howdy Dr Lam,
I'm a pretty average (maybe on the thinner side) 36 m, and I've seemed to have developed hollowing of the eyes over the last few years, as it runs in my family. I've exhaustively researched the different methods, techniques and procedures (probably more than I should have) and I've known of your success with your patients for quiet some time. If I get anything done involving my eyes, I know for sure I will choose you. So with that, my questions are as follows:
1.) While I know that your fat grafting is probably what I want and need, I'm sure it will be pretty expensive compared to using a temporary "fix" such as restylane under the eyes. I've read several times that this is the product of choice for under-eye treatments. However, can good results be achieved with restylane if you perform this? If so, albeit only temporary, are the temporary results similar or comparable to what can accomplished with a fat transfer when it comes to getting rid the hollowing appearance?
2.) I seem to have a few tiny veins that love to show themselves within my eye hollows which makes their appearance even worse. If I'm kinda "veiny" should I expect more bruising after injection or a fat transfer? Would having these tiny veins under my eyes complicate or inhibit any of the procedures?
3.) Would it be possible to do a fat transfer under the eyes with only local anestesia?
Thank you for your help. You have a fantastic website!

That is probably nothing you can change in ISPC. You will have to change the config of your smtp server. If you are running Postfix then edit /etc/postfix/master.cf and change the smtpd line to something like:
10025 inet n - n - - smtpd
to listen to port 10025. From your post I assume you have some spam filter that will filter the mail before handing it over to Postfix. That spamfilter will of course need to be configured to deliver the mail on port 10025 in the above example.
If you are running sendmail then someone else should answer your question
Personaly I would prefer to do it the other way around since Postfix has excellent features for using external mailfilters such as amavisd-new and the possibility to block mail from blacklisted hosts. But that's just me...

Law changes and rodents: Reasons varied for those attending gun show
The line to get into the Manchester Gun Show started at the restaurant by the lobby of the hotel at the Radisson Hotel in Manchester on Saturday. (Thomas Roy/Union Leader)
"Before all the Democrats make all the changes," was one of the reasons Chris Ryan of Plaistow gave when asked why he was waiting in line for the gun show, which continues today. Ryan said he was also attending because he wanted to experience a gun show - Saturday's was his first.
Ryan is referring to a task force headed by Vice President Joseph Biden, a Democrat, that is looking to curb gun violence and to efforts by state House Democrats, who assumed a majority in November's elections, to repeal the state's stand-your-ground law, which allows the use of deadly force if one feels threatened.
Bob Chabot of Atkinson, who was also at his first gun show, said he wasn't worried about his gun rights being infringed because he doubts much will change. He said he was hoping to pick up a smaller-caliber weapon to ward off rodents on his property.
"I've waited in longer lines at Disneyland," he said.
But he said he believes most people were at the show for reasons given for a huge spike in gun sales after Biden's task force was formed - that people believe the administration of President Barack Obama wants to restrict access to guns.
"You know why they're all here," he said. "They want to grab something before they can't."
But not everyone was willing to wait. Seeing the line, which snaked along the entire glass wall at the front of the Expo Center and was curling back toward the hotel's entrance, Dan Blogdon of Merrimack turned back.
"Life is too short," he said. "Who wants to wait an hour and a half just to maybe end up with nothing? I have better things to do on a Saturday afternoon."

BiographyKatherine Heigl was born November 24, 1978, in Washington D.C., to parents Paul and Nancy. Raised in New Canaan, Connecticut, along with her two older brothers and older sister, Katherine Heigl's time in the spotlight began when she started modeling.
katherine heigl is a modelOnce Wilhelmina, a modeling agency, got hold of photos of a then 9-year-old Katherine Heigl, it didn't take long for her to get modeling jobs. She appeared in magazine ads and a Sears catalogue, and made her television debut with a role in a Cheerios commercial.
Modeling paved the way to acting for Katherine Heigl, as it did for young actresses such as Rachael Leigh Cook and Mena Suvari. By the age of 12, she could be seen on the silver screen in the 1992 film That Night, making her feature film debut.
katherine heigl in my father the heroAfter a role in Steven Soderbergh's King of the Hill, Katherine Heigl appeared as Gerard Depardieu's daughter in the 1994 remake of the French film My Father the Hero. Her role as the beautiful teen having to bear with her father's strict rules was not a stretch for the actress; apparently, she was not allowed to date until she was 16.
Venturing into the action genre, next up for Katherine Heigl was the film Under Siege 2: Dark Territory as Steven Seagal's niece.
She only pursued a full-time acting career after graduating from New Canaan High School, where she balanced acting and modeling with the hectic life of a student. With appearances in Seventeen magazine, as well as film and television roles under her belt, Katherine Heigl moved to the hub of acting to further her career.
katherine heigl in the tempestOnce in L.A., Katherine Heigl starred in independent films such as Prince Valiant, Stand-Ins (as Rita Hayworth's stand-in) and the Disney feature Wish Upon a Star. After a role in the 1998 Bride of Chucky, the latest installment of the Chucky slasher series, and the film Bug Buster, Katherine Heigl starred opposite Peter Fonda in the made-for-TV film The Tempest.
katherine heigl in roswellKatherine Heigl started making herself comfortable on television, becoming a regular on the 1999 short-lived drama Roswell -- a former hit alien series on the WB network. She actually auditioned for the three female lead roles before winning the role of Isabel, the "alien on earth" character she portrays on the show.
While working on Roswell, Katherine Heigl made time to take on two film projects, with roles in 100 Girls and Valentine.
katherine heigl in the ringerIn the spring of 2001, Katherine Heigl appeared in NBC's TV movie Ground Zero, but it was shelved by the network for two years and eventually broadcast in 2003. Also in 2005, Katherine Heigl was cast opposite Johnny Knoxville in The Ringer, a Farrelly brothers comedy. Soon after, she was cast as Isabella Linton in the MTV modern adaptation of Emily Bront's classic novel Wuthering Heights.
katherine heigl in grey's anatomyKatherine Heigl biggest break has come in the form of the hit series Grey's Anatomy where she can be seen every week as Dr. Isobel Stevens. With all the good press and accolades the show received, it was obvious Katherine Heigl's star was on the rise.
katherine heigl is named no. 1 in 2008 top 99 and no. 81 in 2009 top 99 Katherine Heigl appeared in the hit comedy Knocked Up in 2007. The following year she was the lead role in another lighthearted flick, 27 Dresses. With her Grey's Anatomy stardom following her everywhere she goes, and her rising notoriety on the big screen, Katherine Heigl's booming popularity was evident when she was named No. 1 on AskMen.com's Top 99 of 2008.
In 2009, she'll star opposite Gerard Butler in The Ugly Truth. She also came in at No. 81 on AskMen.com's Top 99 Most Desirable Women.

• Prime Minister Erdogan, of Syria's once-close ally Turkey, this morning for the first time called on President Bashar Assad to step down. [AP/WP]
• The United States, Canada, and Britain imposed further sanctions on Iran's financial and energy industries yesterday, though they stopped short of completely isolating its crucial central bank. [NYT]
• Israel is still freezing the transfer of Palestinian Authority tax revenue in protest of the UNESCO membership. [Haaretz]
• In visiting the West Bank, Jordan's King Abdullah meant to demonstrate that President Abbas is still the top Palestinian and that the Palestinians' homeland is not Jordan. [NYT]
• Upholding a promise, Vice President Biden met with a handful of Jewish leaders, who lobbied him—almost certainly unsuccessfully—to lobby the president to free Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard. [Ynet/Vos Iz Neias?]
• Much of the West Bank and Gaza is without cell phone and Internet access following what is said to have been an organized hack. [WP Blog Post]

It would be better to call it "Logic Analyzer"ReplyDeleteReplies
Not really... Because it translates the analog input counts to voltage levels, you could conceivably use it (with some external circuit for ranging and input impedance) as a simple o-scope. All of the sudden, your Arduino becomes a mixed signal scope. I wonder what the sampling rate would be... I see an Instructable coming in the future. (Not that I'm volunteering to do it, but I expect someone will have the bright idea.)Delete
I think sampling rate is much less in comparison with pro oscilloscopes and Android is restricting screen update to 60fps which is ~15ms.Delete
Anyway this feature can be used for convenient graphical presentation for input signals.
This aplication is opensource?????ReplyDelete
Use it at your own risk ??ReplyDeleteReplies
Sure you use it at your own risk. Though the app does not require rooting, does not use any private or low-level API so i believe it's safe enough.Delete

St. Gabriel of Our Lady of Sorrows
"whose example helps you, dear young people, to be enthusiastic disciples of Jesus, who inspires you, dear sick people, to offer your suffering in union with those of Christ; and stimulates you, dear newly-weds, to make the Gospel the fundamental rule of your married life"
Pope Francis, Feb. 26th 2014
Patron Saint of Students, Young People and Clerics
The saint of the young, The saint of miracles, The saint of the smile
Hello and welcome to this website which is dedicated to spreading devotion to Saint Gabriel of Our Lady of Sorrows. Gabriel is little known in the English speaking world, though his memory is preserved amongst Italian immigrant communities. Saint Gabriel was declared a Saint by His Holiness Benedict XV in 1920. He is patron of young people, students, seminarians, clerics, Italian youth and of the region of Abruzzo in Italy. His feastday is celebrated on February 27th.
Saint Gabriel was known in the world as Francis Possenti, son of a professional and respected family. He grew up in a household where devotion to Our Lady of Sorrows was a hallmark of family life. Francis grew up, living the life of a typical teenager, he danced, he hunted, he went out with girls, but he still felt something was lacking. He turned to Jesus and His Sorrowful Mother and felt an inner calling from Our Lady to become a Passionist. This he did after many trials. As a Passionist he grew daily in love with Our Lord and Mary, the Virgin of Sorrows and soon came to the perfection of Christian virtue. He died from tuberculosis at the young age of 24.
Saint Gabriel is remarkable because he went so quickly and perfectly from a life of excess, devoted to the pleasures of this world, to becoming inextricably linked to the Passion of Our Lord. He shows us that we can all fall in love with Our Lord.
Thus this site seeks to spread devotion and knowledge of him so that all may learn from him and be guided to Jesus through him. So please spread the word about this site and help to make Gabriel known to those who can benefit from his wonderful example.
Saint Gabriel! Pray for us!
Saint Gabriel Francis Possenti of Our Lady of Sorrows C.P.

Recently, 12 teenage girls who attend the same upstate New York high school suddenly began experiencing uncontrollable movements and sounds called "tics," which are common symptoms of Tourette Syndrome. Although experts say these teens most likely are suffering from a psychological disorder -- Tourette's is a neurological disorder -- their story is nonetheless calling attention to a condition that afflicts more than 200,000 children in the U.S.
"Tourette Syndrome is typically first noticed in elementary-school children and worsens during puberty," says Donald Gilbert, M.D., director of the Tourette Syndrome and Tic Disorder Clinic at Cincinnati Children's Hospital. Boys, like 8-year-old Brent Hurrle, are four times more likely than girls to have Tourette's. At age 5, Brent started swiveling his head frequently from side-to-side. "We thought he was having vision problems, but his eye exam was fine," says his mom, Agena Hurrle, of Indianapolis. Next came constant guttural, throat-clearing sounds. "It was then that his pediatrician suggested a tic disorder like Tourette's," says Hurrle.
The condition can be diagnosed up to age 18, but Dr. Gilbert says most kids show symptoms by age 9 at the latest. While there's no specific diagnostic test for Tourette's, parents can help identify the problem by answering these questions.
What are your child's symptoms? Facial tics -- rapid eye blinking, grimacing, nose twitching --are often the first signs of Tourette. Kids may repeatedly touch a body part or another person, jerk their heads, twitch or shrug their shoulders. They can also have vocal tics, such as constant throat clearing, humming or repeating other people's words. "These motor and vocal tics often worsen when a child is anxious or excited, but they rarely occur simultaneously," notes Gilbert. And contrary to popular belief, Tourette's most common symptom is not uncontrollable swearing or using inappropriate words. In fact, only about 15 percent of children have vocal tics that cause them to swear.
How long has your child had these symptoms? "For a Tourette Syndrome diagnosis, tics need to occur almost daily for at least a year," says Gilbert. Another notable symptom: A child with Tourette's will still have mild tics while sleeping.
What's his health history? Your child's chances of having Tourette Syndrome are greater if you or a relative has it. Kids who have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), obsessive-compulsive disorder, learning disabilities or sleep problems are also more prone to the condition.
Treating Tourette Syndrome
If you think your child could have Tourette's, talk to his doctor. She may refer you to a neurologist for diagnosis and treatment. "Almost 90 percent of the time, symptoms diminish -- or disappear altogether -- during adulthood," says Gilbert. While many kids don't need treatment, behavioral therapy and certain medications can help if the problem affects a kid's self-esteem. "Depending on the severity, your child may encounter problems at school or with peers," says Hurrle. "Arm yourself with knowledge so you can advocate for your child." In Brent's case, he doesn't take any medications, but he is in therapy focused on his "short fuse" and other behavioral problems. Brent gets help at home, too -- his parents see a therapist to help him manage those issues.

It would be interesting to explore the diet of the Gladiator.
Illustration courtesy M. Klein/7reasons
Published February 25, 2014
Ancient Rome's gladiators lived and trained in fortress prisons, according to an international team of archaeologists who mapped a school for the famed fighters.
Discovered at the site of Carnuntum outside Vienna, Austria, the gladiatorial school, or ludus gladiatorius, is the first one discovered outside the city of Rome. Now hidden beneath a pasture, the gladiator school was entirely mapped with noninvasive earth-sensing technologies. (See "Gladiator Training Camp.")
The discovery, reported Tuesday evening by the journal Antiquity, makes clear what sort of lives these famous ancient warriors led during the second century A.D. in the Roman Empire.
"It was a prison; they were prisoners," says Wolfgang Neubauer, an archaeologist at Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Archaeological Prospection and Virtual Archaeology who led the study team. "They lived in cells, in a fortress with only one gate out."
The discovery shows that even outside Rome gladiators were "big business," Neubauer says. At least 80 gladiators, likely more, lived in the large, two-story facility equipped with a practice arena in its central courtyard. The site also included heated floors for winter training, baths, infirmaries, plumbing, and a nearby graveyard.
Prisoners of Rome
The gladiators were clearly valued slaves, Neubauer says, kept apart and separate from the town of Carnuntum, which was founded on the Danube River by the Emperor Hadrian in A.D. 124 and later became a Roman stronghold.
"The find at Carnuntum gives us a vivid impression of what it was like to live and train as a gladiator on the chilly northern border of the Roman Empire," says gladiator expert Kathleen Coleman of Harvard, who was not part of the study team.
Although more than 100 gladiator schools were built throughout the Roman Empire, the only known remnants are in Rome, Carnuntum, and Pompeii (which had small, private gladiatorial grounds). Within the 118,400-square-foot (11,000-square-meter) walled compound at the Austrian site, gladiators trained year-round for combat at a nearby public amphitheater.
"They weren't killed very often, they were too valuable," Neubauer says. "Lots of other people were likely killed at the amphitheater, people not trained to fight. And there was lots of bloodshed. But the combat between gladiators was the point of them performing, not them killing each other."
Tight Quarters
The gladiators slept in 32-square-foot (3-square-meter) cells, home to one or two people. Those cells were kept separate from a wing holding bigger rooms for their trainers, known as magistri, themselves retired survivors of gladiatorial combat who specialized in teaching one style of weaponry and fighting.
"The similarities show that gladiators were housed and trained in the provinces in the same way as in the metropolis [of Rome]," Coleman says. The one gate exiting the compound faced a road leading to the town's public amphitheater, reportedly the fourth largest in the empire.
The fortress prison also undermines the image of gladiators as traveling from town to town in a circus-like setting, as seen in the movie Gladiator released in 2000. (Another film set in the ancient Roman era, Pompeii, is opening this week.)
"They weren't a team," Neubauer says. "Each one was on his own, training to fight, and learning who they would combat at a central post we can see the remains of in our survey."
Neubauer expects to continue aboveground mapping efforts at Carnuntum, which is proving to have been a surprisingly large town.
Analysis of bones from a gladiator graveyard in Ephesus, Turkey, suggests that gladiators ate a largely vegetarian diet, Neubauer notes. The team hopes to eventually perform a similar analysis on bones from the gladiator graveyard in Carnuntum, in a further attempt to explore the real lives of these ancient warriors.
interesting news, thank you.
Great news. I love hearing about past history that can be proved.
This is lovely a great find. Modern days military academies are a continuation of these schools a little refined though. You have to have such individuals who can defend the society and the state from aggressors. The empire lived till these people could defend it and perished when the Huns gained power. It is true today that is why every nation spends heavily on arms and armies. The sad part is that man has yet to learn to share the resources and live in harmony with other humans. We are still split on the basis of color and language, With distinct religions and cultures and fight it out between ourselves to gain access to the resources which could be easily shared. Descended from apes but more cruel than apes.
that's really interesting actually!
It is very plain from inscriptions in Pompeii that gladiatorial familia DID travel to fight in other arenas, not just local venues. 17 years before the eruption, a familia from Nuceria fought the local "team," and a riot ensued, much like a modern soccer match.
That is a very peculiar conclusion you have made based on one excavation. Aren't modern football training facilities fenced in? Gladiators were very much like modern sports stars.
By the first century C.E., there were many voluntary fighters who were not slaves. That is well known from literary sources. The film GLADIATOR contains many cringe-worthy factual errors, which is typical of movies (how about the dark brown Flavian Amphitheatre, which is actually faced with white marble?). POMPEII also is clearly inaccurate in that it depicts games on the day of the eruption. We know from inscriptions there were no games scheduled that month. In fact, the day of the eruption was a religious holiday devoted to the opening of the Underworld. If not at sacrifices in the Forum, most people were expected to stay home and indoors while the spirits of the dead roamed abroad.
And to that fellow who says only the "elite" watched the games: The games were open to the public. I see no difference in the games and people going to ultra-violent movies, which show far more gore and sadism than would be visible in a huge arena. The games were more like fencing matches, complete with referees (which you never see in movies) and very strict rules.
The illustration of fortress like prisons of gladiators lived is like modern day engineering drawing of jail like institutions with perfection and protecting and safe keeping of the gladiator youths whose lives were dependent upon their individual capability to fight and win for the sake of amusement to the viewers of the time which comprises the elite ones of the ruling society. Actually when thinking it is brutal and cruel to see fighting and dying in such acts of gladiators of the time but common in Roman rule at the time. History and archeology facts have no place of emotions but theoretical facts merits.
Fun read. And fascinating.
oh wow, very cool indeed!
If you want to see the site of the Gladiator Schoolat Carnuntum, it is likely between the ruins of the Roman army camp on the Danube, triumphal arch and amphitheater shown in this Google Map of the Ancient and Other Ruins of Europe.:
@Ronald Fontes I think I read the emphasis in the 'undermining' passage a little differently. I thought it was specifically speaking of the idea of a traveling act with no real home base (much how I see mobile circuses portrayed, as always recruiting and training on the road instead of at a central location), rather than the idea that they traveled at all.
As to the rest, it's very interesting. I'm doing research for a pseudo-historical setting (which is how I found this page to begin with). Are there any particular sources you would recommend for some insight on the daily life in the late Roman Empire (2nd-4th centuries CE)?
@George Stiller Thanks so much for this link.

May 8, 2013 4:23 PM by Associated Press
NEW YORK (AP) - Helping to free three women from nearly a decade in captivity would seem to be enough. Hero neighbor Charles Ramsey has also become a star, offering moments of levity in an unspeakably horrible story, free publicity for a restaurant chain and unexpected lessons in race relations.
Ramsey lived next door to where Ariel Castro is alleged to have kept the women in his makeshift prison until Monday afternoon, when Ramsey happened to be home and heard Amanda Berry's scream.
Or let him tell it: "I got the day off from work, so naturally you're doing nothing."
Actually, he was "eating my McDonald's," a fact he trumpeted so frequently that the grateful food giant is trying to get in touch with him. A website that compiled some of Ramsey's television interviews kept count of how many times he mentioned McDonald's in each.
Ramsey, 43, gave a series of interviews to Cleveland television stations as the story broke Monday night that were replayed on national news. CNN's Anderson Cooper tracked him down for a lengthy conversation the next night. The interviews are performance art masterpieces, so filled with colorful language and astute reporting that he trended on Twitter and was the subject of Internet memes and an Auto-tuned song.
Similarly, a tape of a much more profane Ramsey talking to a 911 operator (whom he later called an imbecile) is circulating on the Web.
During his initial interviews, Ramsey said he was shocked to learn of Castro's double life. Ramsey said he "used to barbecue with this dude. We eat ribs and what-not, listen to salsa music."
There was nothing exciting about Castro, he said. "Until today," he added.
"You've got some big testicles to pull this off, bro," he said.
During his Tuesday interview with Cooper, Ramsey, who works at Hodge's Restaurant in Cleveland, noted that he had trouble sleeping with the knowledge of what had been happening in the house next door. "Up until yesterday, the only thing that had me losing sleep was the lack of money," he said.
If he had known what was going on, he said he'd be facing a homicide charge for taking matters into his own hands.
"I'm glad it turned out this way," Cooper replied.
Ramsey's realization of what was happening on Monday was itself a revealing observation on race. Seeing a white girl in that situation was "a dead giveaway" that she was either homeless or had other problems, he said.
"When a little pretty white girl ran into a black man's arms, something was wrong," he said.
That sentence itself made Ramsey's interviewer uncomfortable; their conversation quickly ended. But the sound bite was also highlighted in a parody song that was quickly doctored with Auto-tune and posted online. The phrases picked out for the song - like "we eat ribs with this dude" - also seemed to emphasize Ramsey's blackness.
Past examples of television interviews that seem to play to exaggerated ethnic stereotypes have been the subject of online mockery that struck some observers as racist. An Alabama man, Antoine Dodson, had his comments about a relative's attempted rape go viral.
Ramsey is the latest "hilarious black neighbor" to become an Internet celebrity, wrote Aisha Harris on the website Slate. "It's difficult to watch these videos and not sense their popularity has something to do with a persistent, if unconscious, desire to see black people perform," she wrote.
"There's always this sense of 'otherness' when something like this happens, when you see people who don't look like you or talk like you," said Tracy Clayton, a writer and editor for the Root website. "I like to laugh and make jokes as much as the other person, but I hope that we remember the women in this story, too."
Eric Deggans, media critic for the Tampa Bay Times and author of "Race Baiter: How the Media Wields Dangerous Words to Divide a Nation," said he was most struck with how comfortable Ramsey appeared in front of camera. It's not a shot of national attention he could have prepared for.
"It almost seems weird when you see somebody who is nervous in front of a camera anymore," he said.
McDonald's seemed particularly delighted by the unexpected association with a hero. The corporation tweeted on Tuesday: "Way to go Charles Ramsey - we'll be in touch." A company spokeswoman said Wednesday that it was trying to reach out to Ramsey through its local franchise.
Clayton said she hoped Ramsey's legacy will be in his actions, not his words.
"I would like for him to be remembered, as he said, as a good man who did what anyone else would have done in that situation," she said. "Unfortunately, I fear that he'll be remembered as the guy they made a funny Auto-tune song about."
It was a far more subdued Ramsey who appeared on "Good Morning America" on Wednesday. He did flash signs of his personality, holding up a can of Red Bull when he was asked how he was dealing with the attention and joking about being rivals with George Stephanopoulos' high school alma mater.
He did a brief dance upon recalling how he used to listen to salsa music with Castro.
But he turned serious when Stephanopoulos asked if he had noticed any signs that his neighbor could be capable of the crimes he is accused of.
"No," he said. "Isn't that scary? Either I'm that stupid or his kind are that good."
Ramsey has said he doesn't feel like a hero and was quiet at Stephanopoulos' question about what all the attention means to him.
"There is no feeling," he said. "You do what you've got to do."

Well one thing's for certain, Boeing's got gumption. The US airframer entered the 787 – in its entirety – into the competition for a Crystal Cabin Award and, interestingly, has been shortlisted by the folks who hand out these coveted statutes (the Aviation Cluster Hamburg Metropolitan Region Association….tis a mouthful
Every year at the Aircraft Interiors Expo in Hamburg, Crystal Cabin Awards are given to the best and brightest concepts for aircraft cabins. Thales' Android-based touch passenger media unit; Air New Zealand's Skycouch and Airbus' display-based passenger sign (which will be first used in the A350…see right) are among the finalists in various categories for this year's awards.
But rather than submit an individual design (the 787 lighting system perhaps?), Boeing – together with design partner Teague – have entered the whole kittencaboodle, saying the 787 deserves a Crystal Cabin Award in industrial design because it "combines groundbreaking technology with award-winning design". Hey, why not? "Think big" is my new motto (not Charlie Sheen big, though).
Here's the rest of Boeing and Teague's submission:
"Pursuant to the manufacturer from concept through delivery The Boeing Company and Teague worked collaboratively to define and deliver an unprecedented passenger experience. The composite aeroplane features an expansive inner architecture as well as dynamic LED lighting that replicates day-to-night light patterns, wide seats and aisles, dimmable windows (65 percent larger than the competition's) and larger stow bins. The interplay between light and structural lines underscores the spacious feel of the cabin, further enhanced by the intelligent use of material layering. The revolutionary 787 Dreamliner expends 20 percent less fuel, produces 20 percent fewer emissions than similarly sized aircraft and also has 30 percent lower maintenance costs and 10 percent better operating costs."

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Bryan Little scored a tiebreaking goal late in the third period, Al Montoya made 28 saves, and the Winnipeg Jets beat the Tampa Bay Lightning 2-1 on Thursday night.
Little slid the puck from in-close past goalie Anders Lindback with 4:08 to play. Winnipeg also got a goal from Eric Tangradi.
The Jets were beaten by the Lightning 8-3 on Feb. 1. This outcome was much different.
Steven Stamkos got his 18th goal this season for the Lightning, who have lost six of seven.
Stamkos tied it at 1 when he skated into the low slot and put a shot past Montoya after taking a pass from Martin St. Louis 6:57 into the third period. St. Louis has five assists and seven points during a five-game points streak.

Girls tennis players of the year: Munster's Nikki Heiniger and Paige Heuer
By Josh Lichtenfeld Post-Tribune correspondent June 26, 2013 9:50PM
Updated: July 30, 2013 8:10AM
Typically, in high school team tennis it's the top singles player who garners the most attention. And at a high caliber tennis program like Munster this has often been the case.
But 2013 wasn't exactly a typical season for the Mustangs. There was a key injury, a player that quit late in the season, a loss to a local team before the tournament, and some big decisions about the lineup that had to be made.
Perhaps the biggest of the roster moves was the shift of singles player Nikki Heiniger to join versatile singles/doubles player Paige Heuer in the No. 1 doubles spot. Heiniger was a proven contender in the singles order and Heuer had also shown she was capable to be in the singles group. But Heuer's father and Munster coach, Bill Heuer, saw a bigger picture when he paired the tandem up toward the middle of the season.
"I don't know if either one of them were very happy with my decision for them to play doubles," the coach admitted. "(But) once they got into it, they realized it was the best plan for the team and they embraced it."
In fact, this No. 1 team became Munster's most stable point throughout the postseason. And following their run as the third-place finishers in the individual doubles state tournament, the two are the 2013 Post-Tribune Girls Tennis Players of the Year.
Aside from an early loss to Penn, the duo from noted Mustang tennis families went on a winning streak that resulted in a 20-2 record. The youngest siblings in their respective families also continued the tradition of a Heuer or Heiniger making an appearance in either the state finals or the individual state finals.
"We both come from tennis families; we're just lucky that we can switch back and forth so easily (from singles to doubles)," Paige Heuer said of the relatively smooth transition. She was 25-5 combined in singles and doubles.
Heuer, who's committed to play at Valparaiso University, is a seasoned veteran of doubles play, but this was Heiniger's first go in this portion of IHSAA competition.
"It was a lot different at first, and I didn't really like playing doubles, but we started playing it and I liked it," the incoming junior said.
Before their impressive finish in the individual state tournament, the duo completed three key matches for the team. Less than a week apart between the regular season and the sectional, heiniger and Heuer twice defeated Highland's No. 1 doubles team of Aby Madrigal and Holly Santaguida (Madrigal was a two-time reigning state champion in individual doubles). And in Munster's 4-1 loss to eventual state champion Carmel, at the LaPorte Semistate, they picked up the team's lone point in a 6-3, 6-3 win.
During the state tournament, they lost in their second match against the eventual individual champions from Evansville Memorial. They finished their season with a win in the consolation round over a talented Fort Wayne Dwenger team (last year's runner-up).
Heiniger says she's open to doubles again, but pinpoints the chemistry as the key to the big finish.
"I feel like we worked well together," said Heiniger, who was 26-4 between singles and doubles matches. "We both knew each other's strengths and it worked out very well."

From Florida Legal Wiki
(a) Definition. "Electronic transmission of documents" means the transmission by electronic signals, to or from a court or clerk of the court, of information which when received can be transformed and stored or reproduced on paper, microfilm, magnetic storage device, optical imaging system, or other electronic record keeping system authorized by the Supreme Court of Florida in a format sufficient to communicate the information on the original document in a readable format.
(b) Application. Any court or clerk of the court may accept the electronic transmission of documents for filing after the clerk, together with input from the chief judge of the circuit, has obtained approval of the procedures and program for doing so from the Supreme Court of Florida.
(c) Documents Affected.
- (1) All documents that are court records, as defined in rule 2.430(a)(1), may be filed by electronic transmission provided that:
- (A) the clerk of court has the ability to accept and retain such documents;
- (B) the clerk of court or the chief judge of the circuit has requested permission to accept documents filed by electronic transmission; and
- (C) the Supreme Court of Florida has entered an order granting permission to the clerk of court to accept documents filed by electronic transmission.
- Any attorney, party, or other person who files a document by electronic transmission shall, immediately thereafter, file the identical document, in paper form, with an original signature of the attorney, party, or other person if a signature is otherwise required by these rules (hereinafter called the follow-up filing).
- (2) The follow-up filing of any document that has previously been filed by electronic transmission may be discontinued if:
- (A) after a 90-day period of accepting electronically filed documents, the clerk of court or the chief judge of the circuit certifies to the Supreme Court of Florida that the electronic filing system is efficient, reliable, and meets the demands of all parties;
- (B) the clerk of court or the chief judge of the circuit requests permission to discontinue that portion of the rule requiring a follow-up filing of documents in paper form, except as otherwise required by general law, statute, or court rule; and
- (C) the Supreme Court of Florida enters an order directing the clerk of court to discontinue accepting the follow-up filing.
(d) Service.
- (1) Electronic transmission may be used by a court for the service of all orders of whatever nature provided the clerk, together with input from the chief judge of the circuit, has obtained approval from the Supreme Court of Florida of the specific procedures and program to be used in transmitting the orders. All other requirements for the service of such an order shall be met.
- (2) Any document electronically transmitted to a court or clerk of the court shall also be served on all parties and interested persons in accordance with the applicable rules of court.
(e) Transmission Difficulties. Any attorney, party, or other person who elects to file any document by electronic transmission shall be responsible for any delay, disruption, interruption of the electronic signals, and readability of the document, and accepts the full risk that the document may not be properly filed with the clerk as a result.
(f) Administration.
- (1) Any clerk of the court who, after obtaining Supreme Court of Florida approval, accepts for filing documents that have been electronically transmitted shall:
- (A) provide electronic or telephonic access to its equipment during regular business hours; and
- (B) accept electronic transmission of documents up to 10 pages in length.
- (2) All attorneys, parties, or other persons using this rule to file documents are required to make arrangements with the court or clerk of the court for the payment of any charges authorized by general law or the Supreme Court of Florida before filing any document by electronic transmission.
- (3) The filing date for an electronically transmitted document shall be the date the last page thereof is received by the court or clerk of the court.
- (4) Any court or clerk of the court may extend the hours of access or increase the page limitations set forth in this subdivision.
[edit] Court Commentary
1997 Amendment. Originally, the rule provided that the follow-up filing had to occur within ten days. In the 1997 amendment to the rule, that requirement was modified to provide that the follow-up filing must occur "immediately" after a document is electronically filed. The "immediately thereafter" language is consistent with language used in the rules of procedure where, in a somewhat analogous situation, the filing of a document may occur after service. See, e.g., Florida Rule of Civil Procedure 1.080(d) ("All original papers shall be filed with the court either before service or immediately thereafter.") (emphasis added). "Immediately thereafter" has been interpreted to mean "filed with reasonable promptness." Miami Transit Co. v. Ford, 155 So.2d 360 (Fla.1963). The use of the words "other person" in this rule is not meant to allow a nonlawyer to sign and file pleadings or other papers on behalf of another. Such conduct would constitute the unauthorized practice of law.

Dartmouth Hazing Scandal Further Devolves Into Zany Intrafamilial Drama
As we noted over the weekend, the anti-Andrew-Lohse contingent Goldman Snacks published a bunch of emails between Lohse and his friends (and a professor), including an unpublished column Lohse wrote under a pseudonym in order to praise himself.
While we were going through the whole log, Dartmouth conspiracy theorist Joseph Asch dismissed the emails as "small beer," insisting that "there is not much of interest to be found." Asch, like the rest of Dartblog, maintains a curious epistemology — where the truth is divined by absorbing the opposite of what Asch says — so of course these emails aren't "small beer," and of course there is much of interest to be found.
As one of our commenters pointed out, several irrefutable details indicate that Lohse's brother — Jon Lohse '11 — provided these emails to Goldman Snacks, or provided them to someone who then provided them to Goldman Snacks. Myriad references, and a rather telling pattern of redactions, all point to Jon as the source of these emails. (Unlike our commenter, however, we don't think Goldman Snacks is JL himself.)
This revelation is rather strange, sure — strange in that you wouldn't think someone so close to Lohse would attempt to discredit him. But it's not exactly unprecedented. As Janet Reitman wrote in March, Lohse tends to shed friends and supporters rather quickly; one student told her that "one by one, I think a lot of [Lohse's] friends just gave up [on him]."
This revelation isn't all that illogical, either. As these emails flesh out, Andrew, his brother and their friends spent many, many months plotting an all-out media blitz in order to capture as much attention as possible. All the while, Andrew tried to anticipate — in order to minimize — any potential inconvenience to himself: Read the rest of this entry »

Postfix and sending with multiple domains
I'm having trouble finding the correct documentation for some problems that one of our servers is having with sending mail. We host multiple clients using virtual hosts and we use postfix as a MTA to send web form information both to their users and to the client. Some larger email providers are blocking these emails because they think that it is spam. Some of the blocks may be blocking other people in the rest of the block of IPs (eg, 55.55.55.n) that we do not control. I think this is primarily because these email providers do not like emails from one domain being sent from another hostname.
Anyway, I am just looking for documentation/forum threads, etc. on how to send up sending services for multiple domains. I do not need to setup accounts on the server because this is not marked as the mail server in DNS (I can setup these accounts if it is necessary, but I'm looking to avoid these issues).
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Email servers in multo domain setups are always sending mails from there primary domain, so that nothing unusual and most likely not the thing which is causing your mails to be blacklisted.
Have you checked that your server is not a open relay and that your IP's are not blacklisted?
I've run the abuse.net open relay test and it comes back negative (actually the test fails, I think because of firewall settings). Some of our IPs have been blacklisted, but it is difficult to tell which IP is blocked. We 'own' the first fifty or so IPs in our subnet and, for example, roadrunner has from time to time blocked the whole subnet.
Just for clarification... it's not considering fishy if an email for client.com comes from example.com?
Many times were able to find out we're blocked, but it is just a pain to hunt down two of these every month (or whatever the frequency is).
Thanks for you input.
Please check if you're blacklisted: http://mxtoolbox.com/blacklists.aspx
Thanks for the link! The status is OK on all of the lists (except one which timed out). What triggered this was a message like this:
Reporting-MTA: dns; server.example.com
Thanks again!
Is your mail server on a dynamic IP address? It's possible that Earthlink uses a special blacklist for dynamic IP addresses that aren't listed on the other blacklists.
The server uses a static IP. I was thinking that this might be a pretty generic message used by their spam blocking services. Not very helpful to say the least.
Maybe it's the best to contact the Earthlink support and ask why your emails are blocked.

The solar eclipse that began Sunday at dawn in North America and ends just before the eastern African sunset is a sort of eclipse that has not been seen on Earth for nearly 160 years and won't be seen again for nearly another 160 years – in 2172.
