Stroke Outcomes
Brooks Stroke Center of Excellence has exceptional outcomes as captured by eRehab data.
Brooks Rehabilitation Hospital has a comprehensive, specialized patient-family centered CARF accredited Stroke Program. We provide a full continuum of individualized stroke rehabilitation that focuses on each patient's needs. Our treatments promote recovery for medical, physical, cognitive, emotional and social complications due to stroke. The stroke continuum includes hospital-level of care, where private rooms enhance family training, education and support. Our home health services, specialized neuro-based outpatient therapies, psychology services, Stroke Wellness Program and Support groups, all reinforce our goal to provide the right services at the right time for optimal recovery of function. Treatment is based on stage of recovery, functional needs, fiscal resources, and personal preferences.
Patients receive 24-hour a day medical care within the hospital, with daily physician and nursing care. They receive a minimum of 3 hours of intensive occupational, physical and speech therapies, 5 out of 7 days. Cognitive rehab therapy, neuropsychology, psychology and recreation therapy are provided as appropriate to patient and family needs. A case manager is assigned to each patient to provide comprehensive discharge planning and transitional support.

Functional Outcomes
At admission, patients who suffer a stroke usually can complete activities of daily living, including getting dressed, walking and getting in and out of bed with maximum assistance.
By discharge most patients may still require some assistance, but it is significantly decreased and will vary from person to person depending on the severity of the stroke and other medical conditions that may be present.

Most patients who receive intensive, inpatient therapy as part of our Stroke Program are admitted from an acute hospital. Other patients are admitted from home or skilled nursing facilities. Prior to their stroke, most survivors were living at home, driving, and working or actively enjoying their community.
Following discharge from Brooks Rehab Hospital, 68% of our patients were able to return to the community, 17% required ongoing nursing care at a nursing home and 15% were re-admitted to an acute care hospital due to complications or other factors.

OHATCHEE, Al., July 16, 2012, — Opponents of Mitt Romney have noticed that the name of Batman's villain in the upcoming film The Dark Knight Rises is homonymous with the name of an investment firm that Romney founded in 1984.
The childish "aha" moment was not unpredictable. Americans have tolerated condescension remarkably well for the past four years, so we can presumably take an insult to our ability to spell – or ability to follow a storyline, for that matter.
(Do we have permission to insert a Lyndon Baines Johnson joke here too?)
Beyond the monosyllabic stroke on the ear drum, the parallel dissipates rather quickly.
Beneath that dark disguise, the Caped Crusader that America has come to know and love is no wealth-redistributing, class warfare-waging, purveyor of social justice. Batman is actually a clever "millionaire socialite" (pardon me, billionaire socialite), initially the privileged son of a business mogul, and basically everything President Obama believes to be wrong with this country.
Like some astute commenters across the web are now observing, if Obama had his way, Bruce Wayne would have been taxed out of existence, and the marvelous innovations and livelihoods that his wealth produces would be impossible.
Mitt Romney and Bain Capital resemble Bruce Wayne far more than the destructive (although ostensibly drug-lord-fighting) villain "Bane" who originates in a South American country that was taken over by a leader inspired by the uprising of Fidel Castro.
Don't be fooled. No matter how much phonic or phantasmic spin one conjures up, the stubborn moral of the story remains:
In Batman, the good guy and the rich guy are one and the same.

Prepared by Carolyn Mills, January 2001. DRAFT: For review by the Ecology & Evolutionary Biology Department (EEB), Spring 2001.
The purpose of this Collection Development and Access Plan is threefold. First, it is a tool for the Library to become better informed of the information and data needs of academic programs on campus. Second, it will outline how existing local collections, networked electronic services, and document delivery services are being utilized to meet the bibliographic needs of these programs. Third, it is hoped that this plan will provide the faculty and the library staff a base for dialog concerning future information needs and areas for cooperation. This plan follows the broad guidelines established in Ownership and Access in a Global Information Market: A Framework for the University of Connecticut Libraries, issued by the Chancellor's Library Advisory Committee in March 1999.
The Ecology and Evolutionary Biology Department lost a number of important faculty due to early retirement in 1997. During the past three years new faculty have been hired in behavioral biology and entomology, ecosystem ecology, bryology, phycology, zoological evolution and systematics, botanical phylogentics, and ornithology.
1999-2000 Collections Budget $361,511*
*Note that this is the budget for all three biology departments, there is no individual EEB budget. This does not include electronic products.
Serials $324,756 (journals and continuation series)
Monographs $ 36,755 (approval & firm order books, and continuation sets)
Approximately 10% of the collections budget is reserved for monograph purchases. The remaining 90% goes for journals and continuation series. In the 1999-2000 budget year, $10,000 was added to the journal budget, in recognition of the fact that the biology departments are priority programs, so that new titles could be added. These additions reflect the shifting of research interests as new faculty have been added to all the biology departments.
Electronic Products For Biology:
Other Electronic Products which Support Biology:
A. Characteristics of the Literature
In biology, journals are the life-blood of research. Ecology and evolutionary biology relies on a very broad range of journal literature, much of which comes from museums, research centers and specialist societies from around the world. Although scientific journal literature is most frequently used during the first five to ten years after publication, access to older issues remains important for researchers in EEB.
While inflation patterns in biology journals, in general, are very high, the journals needed by researchers and students in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology are most often published by society or not-for-profit publishers, and tend to have both lower prices and more modest inflation rates.
B. Collection Development
1. Areas of Focus
The Library supports collection development in all major areas of ecology, evolution, botany and zoology, with special attention to those areas outlined as important for faculty research (see Section 1.) Collection development in all mediums is focused on the needs of instruction and current research.
2. Acquisition Strategies
A. Monographs
The University of Connecticut uses the Yankee Book Peddler Approval Slip Plan, which covers US scholarly and trade publishers plus their Canadian and British equivalents, which directly distribute in the US. The subject focus outlined in the approval plan profile is quite broad for biology, ensuring we receive or are notified about most currently published material from these sources. In addition, faculty and graduate student requests for other monographs are readily purchased, and a variety of review sources for biology monographs are regularly scanned. Formats generally not collected include introductory textbooks, examinations and study guides, field identification guides and laboratory manuals.
Natural history writing is collected from Library general humanities funds.
B. Journals
The biology journal budget is totally absorbed by the cost of ongoing journal subscriptions. In general, new journal purchases must be funded by the cancellation of other currently received titles. Expensive new title requests generally respond to a broad base of need, a major lack of coverage or an opportunity (as in the SPARC initiatives) to support a not-for profit competitor to an over-priced, commercial title. A track record of repeated DD/ILL use may also indicate possible need for a title.
The extremely high inflation rates for biology journals have made regular serial cuts a painful necessity in recent years. When deciding which titles to retain and which to cut, a number of factors are considered, including: the inflation history of the particular title and that of its and publisher; the importance and reproducibility of graphics; the availability of the title among external suppliers; the general importance of the title for teaching and research; and the anticipated cost of supplying requests through DD/ILL. Because the journals needed by EEB researchers are often published by society or not-for-profit publishers, and have lower costs and inflation rates, they have been retained in greater numbers than has been possible in other fields. See below for a discussion of the more fluid situation electronic journals.
C. Access Development
In order to assist EEB faculty and students to locate the research materials they need, the Library will continue to use a combination of local collections, licensed electronic products, subject and program-based web links, current-awareness services, and document delivery and interlibrary loan. The current compliment of general electronic indexing, abstracting, full-text services, and current awareness services as well as those specific to Biology provided by the Library seems adequate to meet this objective.
User enthusiasm and economic incentives have caused the library to embrace electronic only access to commercial as well as non-profit journal packages. With the subscription year that begins in January 2004, if a cost savings is available, the libraries are generally converting journal subscriptions that currently bring us both print and electronic copies to electronic-only provision.
We are making this change on a publisher-by-publisher basis. Many of our electronic journals do not come directly by license from the publisher, but instead through aggregator products such as Lexis-Nexis Academic, Dow-Jones, InfoTrac and Wilson Web. The arrangements between aggregators and publishers are constantly in flux. Only when titles are available through multiple aggregators, in a complete and reasonably current version will the cancellation of print be considered.
We have resisted going electronic-only up to now because of concerns about long-term, archival access. Commercial publishers cannot be relied upon to archive their content once the prospect of additional sales approaches nil. Although a solution is far from in place, we believe that technologies now under examination, with funding from the National Science Foundation among others, will yield solutions whereby the largest research libraries will undertake the distributed archiving of digital content in all our interest. We expect that even the largest commercial publishers will, ultimately, cooperate with such an arrangement.
One of the primary goals in the immediate future will be to identify the journals for which we have a subscription but not electronic access, and attempt to add said access. Often the stumbling block for doing so is the license agreement. Additionally, many of the society journals are only now being made available electronically. Often, online access to these titles is free with a print subscription. Retaining access to the already respectable menu of online journals provided by the Library is an ongoing library goal although this effort is becoming increasingly difficult. Because of unsustainable inflation of scholarly journals, electronic only access may be increasingly viewed as a viable option. The question of permanent access to reliable archives of this material is not yet resolved, making such a switch a risky venture.
Furthermore, electronic journals can be hot linked to web based indexes like Web of Science, and the electronic resources listed above. Additionally, the Library's electronic journal locator, eCompass, facilitates the identification of specific e-journal titles "owned" by the Library (i.e., accessible via the University internet domain, ".uconn.edu".)
The acquisition of information via DD/ILL must increasingly be seen as an acceptable alternative mode of access to information in biology. However, the Library is cognizant of a variety of reasons why in EEB particularly it is certainly less desirable than local ownership of the print journal: 1) journal articles in EEB are often long and monographic in nature, running 50 or more pages; 2) critical graphics reproduction is still frequently poor via facsimile; 3) DD/ILL services timeframes often frustrate those who must prepare grant proposals against tight deadlines; 4) even DD/ILL has difficulty supplying some of the scarce specialized titles needed by EEB researchers.
The Library's fund allocations tend to lump rather then split. Biology shares with Business, Communications, Education and other areas, an arrangement under which three departments, with related but sometimes conflicting interests and needs, all operate out of one budget. If the Departments feel that disaggregating all costs into multiple budgets will work better, the Biology liaison is willing to work with the departments toward that end. It is not immediately clear, however, that competition over scarce resources, will be made any less difficult by creating three or four smaller, and possibly less flexible, pots of money.
The Library is very pleased to have finally negotiated a sustainable arrangement for the provision of Biosis to users across our entire system. As we add back files to Biosis we will be taking a close look at whether continuing our commitment to the life sciences components of Cambridge Scientific Abstracts remains justifiable.
Because journals are critical for biology research and teaching, the clearest challenge in collection development for all biology departments is managing the transition to electronic journals. There are major questions and concerns raised by this transition and no ready answers. As we purchase different packages and products, both library staff and EEB faculty and students must understand that we are experimenting in the acquisition of journals in this new medium and that permanent electronic access cannot be guaranteed for everything we initially provide. All journal users are encouraged to be active participants in the promotion and evaluation of electronic journals within their subject areas.
In order to assist EEB faculty and students to locate the research materials they need, the Library will continue to use a combination of local collections, licensed electronic products, subject and program-based web links, current-awareness services, and document delivery and interlibrary loan. Our current compliment of electronic and print collections and services is clearly superior to where we were a couple of years ago. With your help, cooperation and understanding, we trust we will be saying something similar in our next revision of this document.
The significant evolution in collection development and access patterns requires enhanced communication between library staff and the faculty and students they serve. Ongoing dialogue will help ensure that the best choices are being made and that users are knowledgeable about emerging kinds of library resources in terms of access and intelligent use and the risks involved in some of these choices. The Library Liaison Program will continue to be the primary vehicle for this kind of contact.

10 Signs a Man is in Love Is Your Man Love Shy? How to Appear Approachable to Guys Is Your Boyfriend Cheating?
My Boyfriend Never Apologizes
Hi Julie,
As you mentioned, your boyfriend is a self made man who has marched up the ranks through his effort and self-belief. The fact that he is a successful business man in spite of not being highly educated would definitely act as a "confidence" booster for him and may even make him feel a little "cocky" or boisterous at times.
There are many men and women who are usually "non apologetic" for their actions, even when they know deep down that they are in the wrong. This is a personality trait and it has nothing to do with what the person really feels. So your boyfriend might actually feel bad about hurting you but would shy away from apologizing because he finds it "alien" to him to say sorry.
Guys who are non apologetic are usually called "head strong". Basically this means that a guy is so confident of himself that his ego becomes rock solid, so it cannot take the bludgeon of apologizing to anyone. You can observe your boyfriend and notice that he hardly apologizes to anyone, either consciously or unconsciously. This is because his brain is wired to a "strong" or "blown up" self image which cannot condescend to saying "sorry".
This can be looked at as a personality flaw or a positive attribute; it's a "flaw" because there is tendency to hurt people by this attitude; it's a "positive attribute" in the sense that such a person is usually very "confident" of himself and hence is more "stable" and dependable. Is it not true that you feel highly secure and protected in the company of your boyfriend?
But of course it can be very hurting to be on the receiving end of this behavior. If he says or does something harsh, knowingly or unknowingly, and does not tender a word of apology it can be irritating and hurtful at the same time. Here are a few tips on how to deal with a "head strong" boyfriend.
Look at the "pros" of this personality traitThe fact that your boyfriend has such a confident self image works as a great boon for your relationship. He is very less likely to end up "unsuccessful" or aimless because by his very nature he will try to protect his self image and bolster it. He will be driven by success and power, qualities which many women love in their man. The fact that he has a "strong" ego would ensure that he won't let anyone trample him or victimize him.
Don't take his "unapologetic" behavior too personallyIf you start thinking that he is being "intentionally" rude to you then you are going to have a hard time with him. You must understand that this is his personality trait, which means that this behavior of being unapologetic is inherent in him. Can you really blame a person for his unconscious behavior? You can of course, but it's like banging your head against a wall. So the best recourse is to ignore this part of his behavior and not take it too personally.
Avoid asking for an apologyMost "head strong" guys end up in situations where their girlfriend, or wife, asks for an apology and they don't feel like tendering one. Eventually they might give in and apologize, but it would also make them feel resentful and angry inside. These negative emotions are best kept out of a relationship. So when you know your boyfriend has a hang up with apologizing, it's best to avoid asking for one even if it feels completely warranted. Just accept whatever explanation he has to give as his way of apologizing.
Don't hold any resentment for his behaviorIt quite natural to feel irritated and frustrated with your boyfriend when he does something harsh and fails to apologize. Holding such emotions, however, can be detrimental to the health of your relationship. It's best to forgive this "unconscious" behavior on his part and not feel resentful or victimized. You can call it his personality trait, his conditioning or his attitude, but the bottom line is that it's "ingrained" in him to the point where he can't be otherwise.
Your Comments
Julie Anderson said...
Thank you for your advice - I think you got him spot on. I'll try to accept him for what he is and not take it too personally.
Anita said...
I think your boyfriend not apologising for his behaviour or remarks indicate someone with a fragile sense of self esteem.
He may be successful at work - so are lots of well adjusted people, who say they are sorry when in the wrong but are not arrogant to think they are above everyone else.
He may have been brought up not to say sorry - spoilt children do this!
I live with a sister who thinks it is ok to go around doing or saying whatever she wants without an having to say she's sorry when her remarks and behaviour impacts on others and me.
People who think they don't have to apologise think they are a cut above the rest of us "mortals". This is just an indication of a rude, spoilt and arrogant personality who have issues in their self worth.
He may be "successful" in his working life but what would happen if everythink he worked for vanished? A little humility and saying "I'm sorry" does not dimish a person's stature - it enlarges it! Saying "I'm sorry" shows maturity, self respect and accountability! All are hallmarks of a highly eveloved, responsible and mature individual with a strong sense of self worth who feel they will not diminish when they apologise.

Angry Birds loses out to Infinity Blade
Unreal Engine 3 powered title rises to top of App Store charts.
Hardly a day's gone by since Infinity Blade went on sale on the App Store, and Epic's shiny and detailed iOS action RPG has already conquered the app charts, unseating Angry Birds at the top.
Developed by Chair Entertainment (creators of XBLA hit Shadow Complex), and powered by Unreal Engine 3, Infinity Blade is (at time of writing) the current number one in the list of Top Grossing Apps, and for a while, also held top place in Top Paid Apps. Angry Birds has since reclaimed that position.
The game combines RPG elements and close quarters sword combat. To say that it also boasts of some spectacular visuals, would be quite an understatement.
Priced at $5.99, Infinity Blade is now available on the iPhone 4, iPad, iPhone 3GS, iPod Touch 3 and iPod Touch 4.

Former Chicago Alderman Ambrosio Medrano speaking to the media at the Dirksen Federal Building on Friday, Jan. 10, 2014. | Chandler West/For Sun-Times Media
Updated: January 15, 2014 7:21AM
Ambrosio Medrano says he doesn't want to be known around town as a stand-up guy. At least not in the sense that Chicago's political hacks mean when they use that term of endearment.
Likewise, he says he doesn't want to toss such nasty City Hall slurs as "mole," "stool pigeon," "rat" or "snitch" at those troublemakers who seek leniency through secret cooperation with federal law-enforcement agents.
Never mind that Medrano faces a second prison stay — this one scheduled to last 13 years — after again getting nabbed by a confidential government informant sporting a hidden recording device.
The thrice-convicted, 60-year-old former alderman remains convinced he made the best choice he could when he rejected the feds' efforts to flip him to their side.
Had he agreed to wear a wire, Medrano likely would have avoided being sentenced to such a long stretch behind bars.
Being an informant simply wasn't for him.

Property Name:
Willow Grove
Date Listed:
Inventory No.:
Shepherd Church Road, Four Corners, Caroline County
Willow Grove is one of the few Georgian-style houses in Caroline County. A documented date of construction has not yet been discovered, but architectural details indicate that it was constructed between 1780 and 1790. The two-story brick house covered with a thin coat of stucco, measures 37' long and 34' deep. The northwest facade is five bays with a central door, and the southeast facade is four bays. The house is three bays deep and has a two-story, three-bay brick kitchen wing on the northeast which appears similar to a hyphen and a kitchen, due to a set-back in the wall. Basement windows are placed behind horizontal wooden grilles. There is no watertable, but there is a belt course on three sides of the main block and on the northwest facade of the kitchen. The central doors have semicircular arches with fanlights trimmed with a keystone and impost blocks. The doors and jambs are all paneled. Portions of the southeast door trim have been reconstructed. The windows have 2/2 sash and there are some which have 6/6 sash; the original sash would have had 9/9 lights with paneled shutters. Two windows in each of the gable ends light the attic. Two tall chimneys are set flush with the southwest gable, and one with the northeast gable.
Willow Grove is important for its Georgian-style architecture as well as the importance of the builder, Matthew Drive, Jr., in the growth of the new nation and in the growth of the then newly formed Caroline County. Matthew Driver, Jr., born on August 30, 1740, married John Bayard's daughter, Margaret Casson. In 1774, Driver was appointed Justice of the first Caroline County Court by the Governor of the Province of Maryland. He was appointed a member of the House of Delegates as well as Chairman of Safety for Caroline County and Captain of the Militia of Caroline County. In the following year he was appointed Lieutenant Colonel and was second in command to Colonel William Whitely; the latter was Commander-in-Chief of both battalions of the Militia in Caroline County. Driver was commissioned as a full Colonel in 1778 by the House of Delegates and in 1779 was commissioned to pay soldiers of the Fifth and Seventh Maryland Regiments for service in the American Revolution. In 1782 he subscribed 30 pounds to the founding and support of Washington College in Chestertown, and in 1786 he gave a two-acre lot to Caroline County for the erection of the county's first Courthouse. With his son-in-law, Peter Edmonson, and two other members from Caroline County, Driver ratified the United States Constitution at the State Convention in 1788.

Communicatio idiomatum
The Communicatio idiomatum is Latin for the Communication of the Properties. It is the theological position that the properties of both the human and the divine natures of Jesus are attributed to the one person of Christ. An example of this would be John 17:5 is where Jesus, the man, says, "And now, glorify Thou Me together with Thyself, Father, with the glory which I had with Thee before the world was." We see here that Jesus who was born on earth says He had glory with the Father before the world was. This is because the one person of Christ has two natures: God and man. Jesus is the Divine Word made flesh (John 1:1,14). We see in the single person of Christ both the attributes of divinity and humanity.

Alessi. Art and Poetry.
Alessi is a family owned Italian design company, founded in 1921. Giovanni Alessi, a talented sheet metal worker, produced items by hand for the table and home out of copper, brass and nickel-silver. He was later joined by his son Carlo who was responsible for many of the designs produced in the 1930s and early 1940s. In the mid 1940s Alessi began to work with outside designers. The current Alessi catalog is the result of a collaboration with over 500 designers from all over the world.
"A true work of design must be able to move people, to convey feelings, to trigger memories, to surprise, to go against the grain. From this point of view, design intended to conjure up images in people's minds, which makes them a bit happier, still has tremendous potential." — Alberto AlessiView other products from Alessi

How To Construct A Water Garden in 11 Steps?
You can have a beautiful water garden full of beautiful flowers, plants and wildlife. Water gardening is easy by following a few basic steps.
Constructing a Water Garden in 11 steps:
This is where the fun starts! You are now ready to start the building of your water garden. Before actually starting, here are some tips you should consider. Take a step back, take your time, and think it through.
[1] Choosing your site
This is an important step in the process and should not be rushed. Consider these points:
Sunlight – Your water garden will need approximately 5 hours of sunlight per day.
Vantage Point – You will want to be able to view your garden pond from a particular window or other place at your home. Pick that spot ahead of time.
Avoid low lying and water logged areas: This can cause your pond to be unstable and if a rainy period occurs your garden pond may end up under water.
Shade – The shade from trees or from structures like you home.
Debris – Leaves and other debris may fall into your garden pond.
Invasive Roots - Invasive tree roots may tear up your water garden.
Prevailing winds – This should be considered because they might affect your plants or fish. Consider positioning your garden pond where winds are minimized.
Access – Think about how easy it is to get to your garden pond to do things like run electrical cords to run the pump. You will also need to get other supplies to this area such as cleaning / care equipment and lawn care items for weeding & trimming
[2] Choose Water Garden Style:
You have all shapes and sizes as well as various materials the base liner is made of. It could even be as simple as a plastic liner laid out over a free-form pond you have hand dug to match a personal design taste. Most ponds are pre-formed out of some material like fiberglass.
Depth & Angle:
If you are constructing a free-form water garden, the depth and angle of the sides are not pre-set as with pre-formed ponds. In this case think in terms of a water garden that is approximately 2 feet deep depending upon your climate. An exception for a deeper pond might be in areas where winter freezes are harsh. In these climates you may go a lot deeper if you intend on leaving your fish in throughout the winter.
In normal soil the angle of the sides should slope at about 20 degrees to prevent the sides from caving in. If your soil is extra sandy you need to consider a pre-formed water garden because this will cause you problems. Another note on the angle is to make sure your garden pond is as level as possible. If you don't the water garden water level will not look right.
[3] Determine Size:
Figure out your water gardens potential size by laying a rope or hose out to shape it on the ground. Doing this ahead of digging will reveal shape ideas as well as let you know the best size.
[4] Dig Water Garden:
It is best to dig in tiers so there are shelves of different depths around the perimeter of your water garden. This will help in planting your aquatics and add design and realism to your water garden. For shelter and escape from the winter freeze, make sure you have a deep end (about 2 ft.) for any potential fish.
[5] Position Water Garden Filters & Skimmers:
Skimmers are devices that that suck water off the surface and filter it before returning it to the water garden. Dig ditches to lay the piping going to the pumps and filters.
[6] Lining for Water Garden: Line the water garden with pond underlay and apply any rubber or other liners to the surface.
[7] Position Waterfalls or Streams:
This is the point where you will develop any waterfalls or small streams going to your water garden (see the "Garden Waterfall page for more details).
[8] Place Edging around Water Garden: Arrange any stone edging around the perimeter of your water garden (any type of edging can be used).
[9] Chemicals – Dechlorinator: Add dechlorinators or solutions to remove heavy metals (especially if your water comes from the city & you are adding fish).
[10] Adding Aquatic Plants to your Water Garden: You will most likely be adding plants both around the outside of your garden pond as well as in your pond. The focus of this section is on the aquatic plants you'll be adding into your water garden.
Just as with your regular flower gardens, the first thing you'll consider is the growing zone you live in. Choose aquatic plants that are adapted to your local climate.
Types of Aquatic Plants & Flowers for Water Gardens:
Lilies: Lilies are the most popular for garden ponds. They are really neat looking, provide shade and cover for the fish, and produce beautiful flowers.
There are both hardy lilies as well as tropical lilies. That is good news because it means there is a lily for every water garden no matter what part of the country you live.
Hardy Lilies: These can be placed in most ponds and in most regions. They can withstand the extreme temperatures (especially cold) that tropical lilies cannot. Note: Hardy lilies do not like flowing water so keep them away from fountains and waterfalls.
Tropical Lilies: Although not as resilient as hardy lilies, tropical lilies have a larger variety of colors and more dramatic as well. Tropical lilies come in 2 types… Day lilies and night lilies. You could plan your water garden so that the lilies are in bloom both day and night. Note: Tropical lilies need the water temperature to be approximately 65 degrees F. or greater for best results.
Underwater / Submerged Aquatic Plants: These aquatic garden plants are submerged into the water and act as oxygenation for your garden pond. They also provide a good place for your fish to hide, as a food source, and as a place to spawn. Some examples of submerged aquatic plants are: anacharis, hornwort, and cabomba.
Floating Aquatic Plants: Many people think water lilies are floating plants because they only see the top parts on the water. In fact, lilies anchor themselves to the bottom of the garden pond. Floating aquatic plants on the other hand, float freely in the water. The roots hand suspended in mid-water rather than anchoring themselves to the bottom.
Some examples of floating aquatic plants are chestnut, water lettuce, water hyacinth, and duckweed. Note: Most of the floating aquatic plants are not frost resistant and will need to be replaced each year.
[11] Adding Fish to your Water Garden:
Many people like to add fish to their water garden because they are interesting, fun, and pretty to look at. The two primary types of fish usually added to a water garden are goldfish and koi. Goldfish are inexpensive, easy to get, and grow to be much smaller than koi. Koi are more expensive, more specialized, and grow to be much larger than goldfish.
How many Fish per Water Garden:
Think ahead when choosing your fish. A 2 inch goldfish could end up growing to be 9-10 inches long in a couple of years. A similar Koi could end up being 20+ inches in the same period of time.
Why is this important? Fish need space to live and thrive. They produce solid waste and ammonia which will definitely affect the quality of the water and in turn the health of your fish. In planning ahead, you'll want to factor 1 inch of fish for each 5 gallons of water for goldfish. With koi you may want to make it 1 inch of fish for each 2-3 gallons of water because they grow so fast.
Oxygenated water is mandatory for healthy fish. Provide some type of aeration device which could include a waterfall or fountain of some type.
Water gardens are worth the effort and you'll be rewarded with beautiful flowers, plants, and wildlife

I told you that most veterans would disagree with the veteran who said that the military is a great institution that teaches morality. In fact, every one of them who wrote me regarding this disagreed. To give just two examples:
I was in Thailand most of 1971. It was a real eye opener. As a devout evangelistic Christian I wasn't tempted at all by the license I could have had. The degree of sexual debauchery of almost everyone I knew and worked with was incredible. I had one of my men even say "my wife is married but I'm not." Very few eschewed the "pleasures" offered, mostly the older officers and NCOs and Mormons. A few of the younger men married their girl friends, with little chance of them coming here. Those a little older with wives or serious girl friends talked endlessly about their PCOD. (Pussy cut off date, the date they could catch something and be cured before getting home.) Even the chaplain we had wasn't totally clean. I'm pretty sure he did not indulge in the local tail, but at the scene of a terrible auto accident involving two of our people he arrived from a drunk in town and went into a rant of "don't look, it's gross, it's gross" about one man's brains all over the road. In the wallet of the second man who had a severe skull fracture I found a rubber and a letter from his little girl about wanting him home soon. I had the opportunity to escort a young lady there assisting the local missionary. All I got from my "pals" was "does she f__k?"
And this:
7:23 pm on May 27, 2013 Email Laurence M. Vance
I was in the National Guard about four decades ago, and I distinctly remember from basic and AIT that the military was a cesspool. It did occur to me at the time to wonder what happened to honorable, upright speech and conduct, but I guess I chalked it all up to the dehumanizing effects of our war in SE Asia. I was no paragon of virtue myself, BTW, being only 22 years old with all that entails and implies, so I really had no basis for judgement, but I do remember wishing that our leadership was a little less blatantly crude and cynical and a little higher in moral character.

The latest gateway is the company's fastest. But just as important, it now offers a laptop agent allowing managers to extend access policies to endpoints
The latest high performance firewall from Palo Alto Networks doubles the throughput of the company's fastest devices, which the company says makes it capable for data centres and Internet gateways.
At the same time, the company has created an agent for laptops lets IT managers extend firewall policies to remote endpoints.
The PA-5060 [pictured], part of the new 2U-sized PA-5000 series, offers firewall throughput of 20 Gigabits per second, threat prevention throughput of 10 Gbps and IPSec VPN throughput of 4 Gbps. All told, it can handle up to 4 million sessions.
It may not look revolutionary, said Chris King, the company's director of product marketing, but each box runs on a processor with 40 cores.
Palo Alto makes what industry analysts call next-generation firewalls, which comes with application visibility and control administrators can use to set up access policies for over 1,000 applications. URL filtering and threat prevention are subscription extras.
These policies can now be extended beyond the walls of enterprises to endpoints by subscribing to Palo Alto's GlobalProtect agent. The agent, which can be delivered to users via Microsoft's Active Directory, SMS or Microsoft System Configuration Manager, forces traffic over an encrypted session for security.
It also lets administrators set different security policies for laptops when used outside a company office. For example, there could be a policy forbidding the use of Skype in the office but allowing it on the road. GlobalProtect also detects the nearest PaloAlto firewall, useful for companies with multiple PA gateways.
GlobalProtect, which can be used on any Palo Alto firewall, is licenced by the number of PA firewalls in the organization. King said it is priced at roughly 20 per cent of the price of the firewall.
Finally, Palo Alto also said that version 4.0 of its PAN-OS operating system is now available with some 50 enhancements. This includes the ability to write custom App-IDs for internally developed applications and the ability to identify botnets.
The PA-5000 series, which starts at US$40,000, can be ordered with a choice of 120 or 240 GB solid state hard drives, AC or DC power, a DC fan tray and a fan filter.
In a recent interview Rene Bonvanie, the company's vice-president of marketing, said he hopes to boost the Palo Alto's business here. At the moment it has just over 100 customers, and hopes to have as many as 1,000 three years from now by adding to its local staff of two and doubling the number of channel partners. Telus Corp. is its biggest partner, he said, offering PA firewalls through its integration services.

Unregulated legal fringe is risk to public, says Lord Hunt of Wirral
Consumers are at increasing risk from a growing "fringe legal market" in will writing, probate work and claims handling, says a report due out today.
In the report seen by The Times, Lord Hunt calls for an extension of the regulatory "net" to any area of activity where "consumers currently enjoy no regulatory protection". He adds: "I perceive a serious breach of both the public and the consumer interest in any area of activity that looks or 'smells' like a reserved activity but is allowed to go unregulated."
Back to the old days when you couldn't just pick up a will pack or tenancy agreement in WH Smiths and the simplest contract had to be considered by your local solicitor for several hours before he would have it drawn up. Now why would a lawyer recommend to a bunch of lawyers that only lawyers be allowed to do all legal work?

At GIS in the Rockies, a panel session was convened to allow U.S. Federal agencies an opportunity to give the audience an update on what their efforts have produced. Some quick remarks (some of this may be old news to many):
Carol Giffin of the USGS/FEMA team offered that new updates for critical infrastructure data have been delivered to FEMA in May 2007 including updated locations of hospitals & schools:
Nearly 10,000 updated schools including 800 that were new;
Nearly 1000 updated hospitals including 100 new;
In progress are updated locations of fire stations, police headquarters and emergency operation centers.
U.S. Census
Jim Castagneri of the Census Bureau noted that many changes are ongoing:
The last TIGER/Line file was released Spring 2007
TIGER has been completely re-designed in-house to reside in an Oracle database; Geographic products are produced from a subset "product database." Prior to 2006,TIGER could not be modeled because of the lack of topology; TIGER/Line files are being replaced by TIGER Shape files in fall 2007
TIGER/GML – based on GML and intended to support the OGC standards for data exchange; sample data will be on the web soon.
WebTIGER – uses TIGER/GML; A WFS interface allowing requests for geographic features across the web using the XML-based GML for data exchange.
Castagneri also noted that the impact of these changes on Local Governments will include:
Fewer paper-based programs;
Easier to submit feature & boundary updates via digital files;
More positionally accurate TIGER data will ease demographic data integration into local GIS;
TIGER & National Map data (USGS) will more closely resemble GIS data.
National Geodetic Survey
Pam Fromhertz from the National Geodetic Survey informed attendees that part of their 10-year plan includes the modernization of the Continuously Operating Reference System (CORS), to improve gravity modeling, and the NAD 83 National Readjustment (a readjustment within the original NAD 83 framework).
Fifty-States Initiative
A NSGIC AND FDGC partnership to clearly define the authority that exists for statewide coordination of geospatial information and technology. A full-time paid coordinator position is designated and has the authority to implement the strategic plans. This person is authorized to coordinate with local governments, academia and private sector. The federal government will work through the statewide coordinating authority. In the past the local agencies have been able to work directly with the federal agencies. Now with this statewide coordinating body, the local governments have agreed to work through this council to coordinate GIS activities. [APB has covered this previously.]

- Conference date: 3-8 November 2003
- Location: Sendai (Japan)
The formation of liquid droplets, which were generated at the confluence of two‐microchannels, was nvestigated in the microchip. Tributyl phosphate (TBP)‐droplets were formed precisely and continuously at 90–200 μm‐diameter at the range of 5–55 mm/s in the main‐channel and 47–370 mm/s in the other‐channel and a variation in the formation of TBP‐droplet was observed in a microchannel. And, the extraction of Aluminum‐DHAB chelate (DHAB=2,2′‐dihydroxyazobenzen) was studied by the laser‐induced fluorescence. The fluorescence intensity of Al 3+‐DHAB chelate in the droplet was gradually increased with the distance from the confluence of two‐channel. The extraction using droplet in the microchannel has finished for 18 second.

The BCC Building
The design of the BCC is intended to capture the vigor of African American culture and the spirit of the traditional African architecture. The spatial organization of the BCC can be compared to a traditional African extended family village. There is a powerful mix of round and rectangular houses through out the African continent and similar round and rectangular shapes comprise the BCC building. Decorations, patterns and the use of color are an inherent part of African expression and are expressed on and in the building. Afrocentric features are represented through out the interior of the facility. Many of these designs outside and inside of the building can be found in wood, basketry, textiles, wall mats and even tattoos in Africa. The BCC relates to other buildings on the Purdue campus through the scale of its various elements and the use of material on the building.
Architectural Elements:
- The geometric brick pattern of the building is based on a design used in wall mats found in Zaire, Democratic Republic of the Congo.
- Window openings are few, simple and work within the overall pattern of the walls in keeping with the traditional African architecture.
- The entrance is similar to that of a portal, which was often used as the entrance to a traditional village. The keyhole shaped portal in the BCC creates a focal point for the entrance to the center and enhances the identity of the building. The lattice design of the cast stone medallions embedded in the portal represents a typical African ornamental motif.
- The octagonal lobby acts as the village courtyard, while the surrounding "cells", or rooms create a true ordering system. The "courtyard" lobby encourages the building inhabitants to strive for the development of community living rather than to seek exclusion within isolated room.
- The wrought iron balcony on the second level represents the early 1700's enslaved Africans who were commonly employed in the metal trades and the skilled occupation of blacksmithing.
- The carpeting, furniture and wall coverings are in earth tones. The center of the carpeted entrance reflects the geometrical and symbolic patterns in African design. The "windmill" pattern is reminiscent of an Andikra motif, which means "ability to face difficulty in life."
Physical Features:
- The Multipurpose room is equipped with a wood sprung floor for dance rehearsals and performances by BCC ensembles.
- The Formal lounge and art exhibition features African artifacts and the BCC permanent art collection.
- The 20-Station Dell Computer Lab is tied to the Purdue University fiber optic backbone.
- The Student organization office has space for 12 student groups.

Anaheim will ship trash to Brea, and get back converted electricity.
BREA – Turning trash into energy.
That's the idea behind a new power plant the crews began building this week at the Olinda Alpha Landfill above Brea.
The plant will generate up to 37.5 megawatts by collecting the methane gas naturally generated by decomposing trash and turning it into electricity – enough wattage to consistently power up to 22,000 homes.
That energy will go to Anaheim electricity users; Anaheim happens to send its trash to the county-owned Olinda Alpha Landfill.
"In that way it is coming full circle, so customers can feel good about that," said Margie Otto, a spokeswoman for Anaheim Public Utilities. "We feel like this project is a good model."
A much smaller plant that generates about 5 mega-watts has been operating at Olinda Alpha since 2007.
Pleased with the results, the county, in partnership with Broadrock Renewables, decided to use a $10-million federal stimulus grant to help build the plant along with a private investment.
Overall, the plant will cost $130 million. When completed in late 2012, it's expected to be the third-largest power plant of its kind in the United States.
Anaheim, which provides water and power to its residents, signed up to purchase the power generated by the plant at a fixed cost for 30 years.
The city will pay 11 cents per kilowatt, which is currently about 30 percent more expensive than the market rate for traditional power such as coal, Otto said.
Because the city has agreed to buy power at a fixed rate for three decades, the goal is to save money over the long run as other power costs go up, Otto said.
It also helps the city meet its goal of purchasing more electricity from renewable-energy sources. Right now, Anaheim is at about 11 percent from renewable sources such as solar, wind and geothermal.
The city hopes to boost that to 20 percent by 2015 and to 33 percent by 2020, Otto said.
Environmental benefits include trapping methane gas – which would otherwise be released into the environment and contribute to global warming, officials said. Over 20 years, the plant is expected to reduce emissions equivalent to burning 144,000 railcars worth of coal.
Anaheim officials also were attracted by the plant's proximity.
"The geographic location is major for us, allowing us to get energy from a plant so close by," Otto said. "That saves us up to $2 million in transmission fees over the 30 years."
Anaheim resident Jessie Garcia, who came to the landfill earlier this week to unload a truck-bed full of trash, said he hadn't heard about the trash-to-electricity plans.
"Wow, that's kind of cool," he said. "You hate to see all this stuff that we just throw away having to be buried in the earth. Good to know some of it might be going to good use."

Field Judging Antelope is tricky business…. they're tough!
Antelope are notoriously difficult to field judge, but there are a few tricks that will help you out. The three things to look at are the length of horn; mass; and the size of the prong. You will use the ears as a good point of reference to measure these three things against. Antelope ears are typically 5.5″ to 6″ long.
What to look for when field judging antelope
- 1. The horns need to be at least twice as long as the ears
- 2. The bases of the horns need to be almost as wide as the widest point of the ear
- 3. The prong should stick out at least two inches beyond the front edge of the horns
- That's a quick rundown, but for more details click here »

Romania finds horsemeat in beef batch
Published on Feb 21, 2013 6:33 AM
BUCHAREST (REUTERS) - Horsemeat labelled as beef has been found in Romania in products set to be sold locally, an agriculture ministry official said on Wednesday.
A scandal which has triggered recalls of ready-made meals and damaged confidence in Europe's vast and complex food industry, erupted last month when tests carried out in Ireland revealed that some beef products also contained horsemeat.
An investigation has identified a French meat-processing firm as the likely culprit in the row that has implicated traders and abattoirs from Cyprus to Romania.
Deputy Agriculture Minister Achim Irimescu was quoted by state news agency Agerpres as saying veterinary and animal health authority has tracked down a batch of 100kg of horsemeat "falsely labelled as beef by a Bucharest trader".

Manage Tasks on Android with Maniana
Productivity Sauce
The Maniana task manager app is described as "a perfect solution for every procrastinator." In reality, though, it is a perfect tool for anyone looking for a no-frills solution for keeping tabs on your to-dos and tasks. There are, of course, dozens of apps on Google Play Store in this category, but Maniana has two traits that make it stand out from the crowd. Firstly, the app features a somewhat unorthodox approach to scheduling and managing tasks. Maniana does away with the calendar metaphor, offering only two screens: Today and Tomorrow. You can push any task in the Today screen to the next day by tapping the arrow next to the task (that's what makes Maniana ideal for procrastinators). Existing tasks can be re-arranged by dragging them up and down, and you can assign color codes to each task. Tapping on a task evokes a context menu which allows you to edit, lock, and delete the task as well as mark the task as done.
Maniana also features a handful of widgets which give you a quick overview of the tasks from the convenience of the Home screen. While the app doesn't have the ability to sync data, it lets you send backup files as an email attachment to a Gmail address. Maniana lacks all the bells and whistles of more advanced task managers, but it's unbeatable when it comes to keeping tabs on to-dos and tasks at hand with consummate ease.comments powered by Disqus

still kinda amused by the fact that my blazer and skin have the same color. haha. ha. ha. h- not that hilarious anymore, now that I've said it, you know, first, huh?
TAKE THAT oh what a pity neener-neener on the other hand this over-over-oversized blazer kinda reminds me of scrubs which I find even more amusing than my skin tone. But then again, who knows a doctor that wears flowery statement necklaces at work? - hands up!? or, however, scrubs in their free time? - the other way, you know, round - and again, hands up!? well, by the fact that I can't see any hands up haha I'd say I'm the only one who has some association issues hooorayyy - wait. that's a good thing?!
Anyways, regarding the outfit, you know, when it comes to serious talking, I went for something very casual, a simple black tee and a pair of The Kooples denim pants, pimped the whole look with the Marni at H&M necklace and a bright orange lipstick, threw over the blazer in question and was ready to, you know, go! What do you think?
... wait! Take a moment for a weird foolish pose at the end, it's a must - I know you know.
Outfit: shoes, blazer ZARA, necklace Marni at H&M, pants The Kooples
Have a great day!
xx, A.
