Studies Find Benefits for Fish and Omega-3 Consumption
Tara Dairman
October 27, 2006
Four studies published this month report benefits for fish and omega-3 fatty acid consumption with regards to heart disease and Alzheimer disease. These studies are of particular note for people with diabetes because they are at an increased risk of developing both of these conditions.
Heart health. One review of multiple studies, published in the October 18 issue of The Journal of the American Medical Association, found that 1–2 servings per week of fish and shellfish, especially species high in the omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), reduced risk of death from heart disease by 36% and overall risk of death by 17%. The researchers concluded that these potential benefits far outweighed any health risks posed by methylmercury, dioxin, and polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) contamination of fish. Levels of these contaminants in store-bought fish, the researchers said, were low.
The report specified that women who are pregnant or nursing or could become pregnant should avoid the four fish species that are highest in methylmercury (which can lead to developmental problems in newborns). These species are king mackerel, shark, swordfish, and golden bass (also known as tilefish). These women should also consume less than six ounces per week of albacore (or "white") tuna, which can also be high in methylmercury. The researchers recommend that these women consume a variety of all other species of fish, however, since there is evidence that higher fish intake and DHA levels in mothers are associated with improved infant brain development.
A second report released at the same time by the Institute of Medicine (IOM), a subsidiary of the National Academy of Sciences, was not quite as optimistic but concluded that fish and shellfish intake may reduce people's overall risk of heart disease. This report, also based on a review of several studies, emphasized that it is not clear whether seafood is beneficial to heart health because it replaces fatty cuts of meat (which are sources of saturated fat and cholesterol) in people's diets or because the omega-3 fatty acids found in seafood have a protective effect on the heart. It did acknowledge that maternal consumption of omega-3 fatty acids from seafood have been shown to be beneficial to infants' vision and cognitive development. Both studies emphasized that fatty, cold-water fish—such as salmon, mackerel, sardines, anchovies, and herring—are the richest sources of omega-3 fatty acids.
Alzheimer disease. An additional two studies, both published in the October issue of the journal Archives of Neurology, showed possible benefits for fish and omega-3 fatty acid consumption in preventing or slowing the progression of Alzheimer disease. The first study showed that people who eat a "Mediterranean" diet—which includes fish among several other components—have a lower risk of developing Alzheimer disease. In this study, researchers collected data on almost 2,000 people with an average age of 76, 194 of whom had developed Alzheimer disease. The researchers analyzed the study participants' diets over the previous year and discovered that the more closely a participant had followed a Mediterranean diet (which is rich in fruits, vegetables, olive oil, legumes, cereals, and fish, low in meat and dairy, and includes mild to moderate alcohol consumption), the lower his risk of developing Alzheimer disease.
The second study showed that omega-3 fatty acid supplements slowed cognitive decline in a small group of people who already had very mild Alzheimer disease. The study examined 174 people with Alzheimer disease who were given either a daily omega-3 supplement containing 1.7 grams of DHA and 0.6 grams of EPA or a placebo. The researchers found no significant difference in cognitive decline between the two groups after six months. However, in a subgroup of 32 participants who had very mild cognitive impairment at the beginning of the study, those who received the omega-3 supplements experienced less cognitive decline than those who received placebos. What's more, when the participants in the placebo group were switched to an omega-3 supplement, their cognitive decline decreased after an additional six months.
While the reason the supplements were helpful only to people with very mild Alzheimer disease is not clear, the researchers theorized that the anti-inflammatory effect of omega-3 fatty acids may only play a beneficial role in the disease's early stages.
Experts have concluded that diet probably plays a role in the development of Alzheimer disease, and that steps taken to reduce cardiovascular risk may also help reduce people's risk of Alzheimer disease.
A colleage of mine (certified diabetes educator) recently asked me if I knew anything about the risks associated with fish oil supplements and diabetes. Apparently, she recieved a invitation to subscribe to Diabetes Self Management and in the evelope was a page discussing why a person should subscribe including finding out the "hidden dangers of taking fish oil supplements. Studies have shown that these supplements can actually worsen your blood sugar control and increase your cells' insulin resistance." This is taken directly from the envelope insert (which I have in front of me). I subscribe to Diabetes Self Management myself and am unable to locate any article discussing this either online or in my magazine sitting on my shelf in front of me. Can you shed some much needed light on this? I thought fish oil supplements were beneficial for diabetics.

text: This is a fun question! I loved Grania's list, so I'm going to assume other people will cover herbs and add some other stuff: FROST TENDER ANNUALS- watermelons - I'd grow them for several reasons - it's one of the few annual fruits, the taste of garden fresh watermelon is wonderful, and it's almost the perfect low calorie snack on a hot day. In E. PA, you may need to start plants indoors to get a good season. My favorite variety is Sugar Baby (great taste, and small "icebox" melons). canteloupe - about the same as watermelon. I like canteloupe best when it's just come in from the garden, still warm <G>. cucumber - I love cucumbers in salads (or alone in a salad), and the rest of the family loves pickles. COOL WEATHER ANNUALS- lettuce - basic salad vegetable, there's a lot of varieties and it's easy to grow. rocket (arugula) - it has a nice tang to it, I like to add a little raw to my salads. radish - good to add some spice to a salad, and VERY easy and quick to grow. carrots - I love fresh, tender baby carrots, alone or in a salad or steamed. peas - pea plants can be turned under to add organic matter to the soil, and fresh peas are really delicious. chard - it's high in minerals, and leaves will continue to regrow for months. I like to add it to stir fry or a soup or young raw leaves in a salad. borage - the flowers are pretty <G>. The flowers can garnish a salad or cold drink, and the young leaves can be added to a salad (haven't tried it yet). calendula - another pretty flower. The petals can be used as a garnish, or used to color a dish like saffron. onions - easy to grow from sets, and it's particularly good for vitamin C. It adds flavor to soups and stir frys and roasts. PERENNIALS watercress - this may not work in the garden, but it's easily grown in a pot set in a pan of water, and it adds a nice zing to a salad. roses - a really beautiful flower, and the petals and hips can be used for potpourri, rose water, rose hip conserve, etc. If you grow an eglantine/briar rose, you can use the leaves. iris - a beautiful flower. garlic - an easy to grow bulb, it's particularly good for you. I add a clove or two most of the time when I'm cooking meat. burnet - a leafy green, it adds a cucumber taste to salads. strawberries - A relatively fast fruit, and not difficult with a good mulch. There are varieties that aren't sold in groceries that have incredible flavor. If you want a period strawberry, you'll want an alpine (Fragraria vesca) type. Most of these are easy to grow, and all of them are period. Some other plants I also grow are tomatoes, sweet peppers, squash, okra, nasturtiums, marigolds, day lillies, beans, and parsley. Hope this is what you're looking for. Raisya ============================================================================ Go to http://lists.ansteorra.org/lists.html to perform mailing list tasks.

Clinical instructor said I'm too quiet - page 3
The other day, my clinical instructor told me I am too quiet and that I should be more assertive. I know she probably told me this for my own good and I should be more assertive, but it made me feel bad. From the way she was... Read More
- 0Feb 18, '13 by Wrench PartyI'm also introverted, and I was terrified in a med surg clinical when the instructor said to me, "Hmm, you're a quiet one".
It wasn't an accusation, but rather she gave me the quiet patients that preferred lots of 1:1 interaction and would be overwhelmed
with my more boisterous classmates. I had a ball and learned a lot, and got over having to talk to patients.
Now I'm happy as a clam in my practicum, because I'm not in a big group and have a lot of interaction with my preceptor and
my patients.
My advice is to take advantage of your instructor's wisdom, and come out of your shell a little bit. It will only increase your confidence.
- 0Feb 18, '13 by turnforthenurseRNIt is NOT a bad thing. I was very quiet throughout nursing school and clinical. I always asked for clarification when needed, asked questions and tried to get involved as much as I could during clinical. I knew my stuff. But I was always told by my instructors during my evaluations that I was quiet and I needed more confidence. I've been a nurse for almost two years and I have been successful. In fact, I think I have shed that "quiet" quality. I have really grown out of my shell since being a nurse student and being a new grad to now. Don't let that discourage you.
- 0Feb 19, '13 by Gr8ful1I think it is ok to be quiet. Just don't let being quiet keep you from stepping up and volunteering for learning opportunities. If you stand quietly behind all of the other students your instructors will likely conclude you are trying not to be noticed because you lack the confidence. It might not be an accurate assessment, but how is your instructor to know if you don't step out of your comfort zone? As nurses, we have to do that sometimes. And by all means, ask questions. Be brave and answer a peers question if you know the answer. I think your instructor wants to know that you can advocate for your patients and for yourself. Sometimes, being an advocate means being loud until someone listens - loud, but not obnoxious.
- 0Feb 20, '13 by GrnTea, BSN, MSN, RNQuote from watashiAnything that gives you the true autonomy of being self-employed will require a lot of experience and continuing education after nursing school. But there are things like legal nursing, case management, medical fraud investigation, research, ethics committees, risk management, and others that would allow you a lot more time to be working on your own. They won't totally take you away from others, but they will give you the opportunity to recharge yourself as Susan Cain mentions.GrnTea,
Can you tell us some of these "Introvert friendly" nursing positions? And are they something nursing students get to experience? I am having struggles similar to the OP. I'm a second-semester nursing student and so far all we've done is med-surg, which has definitely been not.

By Katelyn Polantz, The Roanoke Times
ROANOKE, Va. For a handful of Dirty Dancing fans on pilgrimage to Mountain Lake Hotel, something wasn't right.
Sure, the Giles County retreat has the tour of film locations for the 1987 classic, the "Time of my Life" karaoke event and the Patrick Swayze monument. Yet guests this past weekend said the grass was a little too high, the paint a little too chipped, and the lake — that's nearly gone.
Hard times have come to the Mountain Lake resort.
In the past two years, its iconic water body has receded to a third of its original surface area, and the ongoing national recession has squelched many travelers' plans, management said.
"We should probably come out ahead this year — by not much — but at least we won't be losing money," said General Manager Buzz Scanland.
The business's finances broke even last season, he said.
Scanland has watched the resort's occupancy sink about 20% on average in the spring and summer since 2008, he said. Revenue decreased accordingly.
To compensate, Scanland, who's managed Mountain Lake Hotel for two decades, cut his staff by more than half, from about 130 employees to 60, he added. And in the past decade, the resort's namesake attraction has lost more than 50 feet of its depth; a natural cycle drains the spring-fed lake every few hundred years.
Since 2007, there's been no boating allowed. Scanland hopes guests may kayak and canoe once again this year, he said.
While the lake itself is a draw for guests, Mountain Lake managers say that Dirty Dancing is great for business.
It certainly has helped elsewhere.
North Carolina's Lake Lure Inn & Spa, another site where Dirty Dancing and other movies have filmed, grew sales by more than 4% since 2008, owner George Wittmer said. Rooms on summer weekends often sell out, Wittmer added, and many guests opt to be married on Dirty Dancing landmarks.
Mountain Lake introduced its own promotion for movie-themed weekends two years ago, Scanland said. The resort charges guests $230 or more for a two-night stay that includes tours, games, meals and dancing. To coax more business, it also offered a $50 Dirty Dancing promotional discounts this summer. About 100 guests attended the most recent monthly Dirty Dancing retreat this past weekend, when the resort's rooms almost sold out, management said.
"When you're here, it still feels like they [the actors] are alive, and they're with you," said Becky White, a self-proclaimed "ultimate Dirty Dancing" fan.
White, of The Villages, Fla., visited the resort for the promotion with her boyfriend, Devin Knight. The two have visited nearly every location shot in the film, they said, and were disappointed by the state of the resort and the water level.
For some guests, Marsha Stevers, assistant manager, has modified her tour of the resort. She'll show off the waterside gazebo where the Dirty Dancing stars swayed and the dock where they stood. But the water stays a hike away.
"You want to know what draws our business? Dirty Dancing draws our business," Stevers said, her voice serene as she watched a deer graze through the lake bed. "Do I worry that it will not fill? No. Do they wish it was fuller? Of course."
The resort spent about $1,000 this year to move the grounded boat dock a few feet forward and add an extension to its planks, Scanland said. The dock now serves as a footbridge for the quarter-mile path to the lake.
One guest, Robert Elliott, a 61-year-old from Durham, N.C., has visited the resort every year since he was 16. Elliott said he now relaxes on flotations at the resort's in-ground pool, rather than on the lake. He enjoys the resort's retreatist, familial vibe, he said.
"I feel they've done the best they could to make amends of a bad situation," Elliott said. "We love the place and care about it, and we want to see it succeed."
Mountain Lake now looks to be refilling slowly since this year's snowy winter, management said. Still, the last time it drained away, the water level stayed that way for 40 years.
"I just hope the lake just comes up more, that's the best strategy I can have," Scanland said.

Chicago's teenage rap phenomenon Chief Keef hooks up with like-minded DC rapper Fat Trel for "Russian Roulette," a track produced by go-to street rap producer Lex Luger. It sounds pretty much exactly how you'd expect it to sound; gritty, pounding and driven over-the-top by Luger's menacing drums. The accompanying video dabbles in Keef's favored low-budget aesthetic. Watch it below.
Finally Rich is out soon.

Invasive Forest Pests:
Recent Infestations and Continued Vulnerabilities at Ports of Entry Place U.S. Forests at Risk

Invasive forest pests have seriously harmed our environment and imposed significant costs on our economy. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is the lead agency for responding to forest pests and coordinates with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to prevent pests from entering the country. GAO issued two reports in 2006 on these programs. This testimony describes (1) the status of USDA's efforts to eradicate the Asian longhorned beetle, emerald ash borer, and Phytophthora ramorum; (2) the factors affecting the success of those eradication efforts; and (3) areas of continued vulnerability in regard to preventing the arrival and spread of forest pests.
On the basis of the available evidence, it appears that the Asian longhorned beetle will be eradicated in the three states that have infestations, although funding reductions have extended the likely completion date. In contrast, the emerald ash borer and P. ramorum--the pathogen that causes Sudden Oak Death--are likely to continue to infest and damage forest ecosystems in the Midwest and on the West Coast, despite efforts to control them. The success of the federal responses to these infestations has been affected by several factors. First, the unique biological characteristics of each species greatly influences the ability to effectively control them. Second, quarantines have helped contain the spread of the pests, but implementing and enforcing quarantines has been difficult. Third, the only available method for eradicating these pests is to destroy infested trees and plants--a costly and sometimes impractical approach. Fourth, despite budgeting over $420 million to control these three pests, USDA program managers told GAO that funding has not been sufficient to fully implement their programs. We also found that USDA had not adequately prepared up-to-date management plans to provide decision makers and the public with current information on the extent of the infestation, eradication goals, and long-term funding needs. We identified areas of vulnerability that we believe increase the risk of future forest pest infestations. Specifically, we found that despite efforts to expand USDA's forest health monitoring programs, they do not adequately provide for comprehensive monitoring in urban forests or other locations considered at high risk from pest invasions. Monitoring in such areas is important because they are common destination points for internationally traded cargo, which is a frequent pathway for pests. Improvements could help prevent situations such as those experienced with the Asian longhorned beetle, the emerald ash borer, and P. ramorum, in which years of delay in detection allowed them to become established before control programs began. In our report on port inspections, we found that DHS has not used a risk-based staffing model to assign newly hired agricultural specialists to ports of entry. As a result, DHS does not have assurance that staff are assigned to areas of greatest vulnerability. In addition, despite an interagency agreement intended to facilitate coordination between DHS and USDA, agricultural specialists are not consistently receiving notifications of changes to policies and urgent inspection alerts in a timely manner. We also reported that DHS has allowed the canine inspection program--dogs trained to locate items that might harbor pests--to deteriorate. Dozens of canine units are vacant, and the proficiency scores of the remaining canine units have declined.

Consumer electronics, office equipment and other plug loads consume 15 to 20 percent of total residential and commercial electricity in the United States. Much of this energy is consumed when these devices operate in low-power modes but are not actually in use. One way to reduce this unnecessary electricity consumption is to use smart plug strips.
By automatically turning off plug loads when not in use, smart plug strips can provide energy savings in homes and offices. Applications for smart plug strips include workstations, open office cubicles, home offices, and home entertainment systems. Estimates of exactly how much energy can be saved with smart plug strips vary, and are highly dependent on the type of smart plug strip used, which devices are connected to the smart plug strip and how the devices are connected to the smart plug strip.
What do we mean when we say "smart plug strip"?
Smart plug strips look similar to typical plug strips, but also incorporate additional technologies to automatically disconnect power to certain equipment when not in use. Most smart plugs strip have one "master" control outlet, four to six controlled outlets that will automatically power down designated devices, and one or two uncontrolled outlets that are always on. Smart plug strips vary in design, but typically employ occupancy sensors, load sensors, remote controls, timers or USB interfaces to automatically power down plug loads when they are not in use.
Occupancy Sensing
Occupancy sensing plug strips detect the presence or absence of a person, and automatically turn equipment on and off accordingly. These smart plug strips usually have one or two outlets that are always on, meaning that they remain constantly powered and are not affected by the occupancy sensor.
Load Sensing
Load sensing smart plug strips detect the drop in current that occurs when the control device enters a low-power mode. For example, if the control device is a computer, the load sensor would detect when the computer enters sleep or standby mode, and then disconnect power to the other devices plugged into the strip.
Remote Controls
Some smart plug strips use wireless remote controls. The advantage of the remote control smart plug strip is that it is a convenient way to control exactly when devices receive power or don't without having to reach below desks, behind home entertainment equipment, or around furniture to access inconvenient places where plug strips are typically located.
Smart plug strips can also turn equipment on and off based on a programmable timer. Turning devices on and off with a timer ensures energy savings over night, and on weekends and holidays.
USB Interface
Smart plug strips using USB interfaces plug into the computer via a USB connection. When the computer goes to sleep or is turned off, a signal from the USB port shuts down the flow of power to peripherals (e.g. printers, scanners, modems, speakers, and standby lights).
How many smart plug strips are in use and how much energy do they save?
Little independent market research information is available on smart plug strips. Existing research suggests the stock of smart plug strips to be small. However, there is increasing interest in smart plug strips and many manufacturers now offer these products.
Estimates of exactly how much energy can be saved with smart plug strips vary, and are highly dependent on:
Our preliminary research suggests that a smart plug strip used with office equipment (at home or at work) can save from 25 to 180 kWh per year and that a smart plug strip used with home entertainment equipment like TVs, DVDs, and amplifiers can save from 25 to well over 100 kWh per year.
How can I find the best smart plug strips?
Each smart plug strip technology has advantages and limitations. The energy that will be saved is highly dependent upon the application. It is helpful to think about how and when the smart plug strip will be used before choosing a product.
Where will the plug strip be installed? Power or current sensing smart plug strips work well in home offices and home entertainment centers where there is a central device (TV or computer) and several peripheral devices (printers, DVD players, speakers) that are used only when the central device is on. Occupancy sensor smart plug strips can work well in office cubicles because they can detect the presence or absence of the office worker and turn devices on and off accordingly. A timer smart plug strip could be used on devices that never need to operate during certain hours. Examples include office equipment such as printers and home entertainment equipment like stereos.
Who will be interacting with the smart plug strip? Remote control advanced plug strips can achieve energy saving in many settings, but the people who use the equipment must remember to also use the advanced plug strip remote control to turn the strip on and off when appropriate. Occupancy sensors will be triggered by motion from anyone in their detection zone. An area that people enter for multiple reasons- not just to use the designated equipment- may be better suited to a different technology. Timer advanced plug strips are appropriate in situations where schedules are consistent.
Additional considerations are:
Pick a product with an adjustable time delay. smart power strip products may come with either adjustable or manufacturer-set time delays that determine how long a period of non-occupancy or inactivity must be before the equipment is turned off. A product with an adjustable time delay allows adjustment of the smart power strips to suit individual habits.
Pick a product with low power demand. smart plug strips draw a small amount of power by themselves. Our testing showed that smart plug strips draw between 0.004 and 1.8 watts when no devices are plugged into them. While energy savings will typically outweigh any energy consumed by the smart plug strips, it is important to note that some smart plug strips use a small amount of energy themselves.
Smart plug strips are available in stores and online at many electronics retailers. They go by many different names, including:
Smart plug strips
Smart strips
Energy Savings Power Strip
Energy Saving Surge Strip
Smart Power Surge Strip
Smart Surge Block
AutoPowerOff Plug Banks
Advanced Power Strips
Is there a way to measure the energy savings from smart plug strip?
At present, little independent research exists that verifies energy savings from smart plug strips. Ecova (Formerly Ecos) recently completed an smart plug strip research report that provides a technology overview as well as preliminary savings estimates. We hope to conduct large scale plug load field monitoring studies using a variety smart plug strips in different settings soon. Because smart plug strips savings are highly dependent on field installation conditions, this data would very useful for more detailed predictions of the amount of savings that can be realized for individual applications.

1 out of 1 people found this review helpful:I have to agree with other reviewersThis is a great anime with a great ending to complete the story but there is a lot of backstories about few characters that you have to know to follow this through and understand exactly what is going on. But i think they could have made this series longer and broken down the story more and taken time to go into back stories and it could have been more interesting
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful:No prior knowledge to the animeI never watched or play Super Robot Wars before so it was very difficult for me to follow the anime. I did not know who side the characters were on and what their goals were. I felt they introduced many characters so fast that it was hard to keep track of. The characters are very interesting but I wish the anime would go at a slower pace and take time to introduce the characters

It's a mech lovers dream come true. Endless action, upgrades, new mechs, combinations, and a whole lot of fan service.
Interesting show SequelOk first off this is a sequel to a previous series....actually a couple of previous series.

What made that series neat was that they took from so many differing genres of Giant Robots....they had a Crazy Professor made one a Robotech one that was run by the ...Read more
A lot of action with a great finish.It's basically just robots fighting what more could I ask for. Sure the story is confusing with an abundance of characters, but all the fighting makes it a great show to watch. I am left wondering what happens to the rest of the show as it would seem to need a continuation.
Wars and Super Robots; Oh My!The Super Robot genre has been around for a long time. Originally introduced via Tetsujin-28-go, or as some people may know as Gigantor, in the 1950s and later refined by Go Nagai's Mazinger in 1972.

Several simple steps will make sure all systems are go. First, check your hardware using one of several free software programs downloadable from the Internet. Many of these quickies can fix the problem in a keystroke. (See "Cyber Solutions")
After making sure your hardware is Y2K-compliant, check your software. If you use prepackaged programs, back up all your data and test post-millennial operation. Enter imaginary figures into the programs, using dates in the year 2000, to see how the software reacts to processing millennium data. If your software passes this test, try a second check: Set the computer clock to one minute before midnight, December 31, 1999. Then use the software as you normally would. If any program malfunctions as the clock passes 12:00 a.m., stop and contact the manufacturer's technical support department.
If your company uses customized software, ask the vendor if it's Y2K-compliant. If it's not, have them test it and make any necessary repairs. Be sure to ask for a warranty that covers you if the program goes belly-up. If the vendor balks, it's time to consider another software manufacturer. Sure, changing your software is a major hassle--but better to deal with it now than see your business slam to a halt after the millennium.
Once you're in the clear, take steps to stay that way. Before you upgrade your hardware or buy new software, make sure the product is guaranteed to be bug-free after the millennium. Don't assume a product is Y2K-compliant just because it's new.

Kate Walsh to Star in Grey's Anatomy Spinoff; Pilot Episode Planned For Mayby Steve Marsi at . Comments
In a bold and controversial move, ABC is surgically removing part of Grey's Anatomy to see if it can survive on its own.
The plot is still a work in progress and Grey's Anatomy creator Shonda Rhimes - who will lead production of the new series - hasn't settled on a title, says an ABC spokeswoman.
A two-hour pilot of the series is likely to air in May, the Journal said.
Rhimes recently told the cast about the project and agreed to write the special two-hour episode that will serve as the series pilot. This type of old-fashioned spinoff is rare in the risk-averse TV business.
ABC will likely air the show in May so that it is broadcast in time for the network to decide whether to pick up the spinoff before unveiling its fall schedule to advertisers and media buyers.
ABC Entertainment President Stephen McPherson declined to comment. ABC confirms it has inked a deal with Walsh, but said Rhimes and Walsh are both unavailable to comment further at this time.No new show is a safe bet in the fickle TV business, but a spinoff is a safer bet. Rather than launching cold, spinoffs come with a built-in audience already invested in the concept or character.
There's a strong marketing hook - a crucial element as networks battle an
expanding array of entertainment options for viewer attention. And some
of TV's most popular shows have been spinoffs, including The Jeffersons, spawned by All in the Family, and Frasier, a spinoff of Cheers.
Although McPherson has dramatically transformed ABC over the past two years from the last-place broadcaster to a contender for No. 1, the network still has holes on its schedule that would benefit from a new hit.
Wednesday night has started to struggle - the castaways drama Lost is down 23 percent among adults age 18 to 49 this season compared with last - and the network has been keeping some Friday slots warm by airing reruns.
In many ways, a Grey's Anatomy spinoff would mark a departure for the modern TV industry. True spinoffs - where ancillary characters leave an established show to become the leads of a new one - are less common today than in decades past.
A big reason: There are fewer smash hits, particularly comedies, to spin off. The TV schedule is replete with strong dramas, but shows such as CSI tend to spawn new franchises with entirely new casts of characters, notes TV historian Tim Brooks, author of The Complete Guide to Prime Time.
Indeed, networks rarely have confidence to pursue a character spinoff of an hour-long drama. One of the few successes was in 1979 when Gary and Valene Ewing departed Dallas to launch Knots Landing.
More often, attempts have been spectacular flops, such as the 1987 bid to spin off Hill Street Blues by sending detective Norman Buntz, played by Dennis Franz, and his snitch Sid, played by Peter Jurasik, to California.
Beverly Hills Buntz failed within a season, although Franz went on to greater things in NYPD Blue.
With Grey's Anatomy, ABC has a white-hot hit, fueled by complex story lines and charismatic characters. Despite moving to highly competitive Thursday from Sunday last fall, Grey's Anatomy is notching some of its best ratings ever. Last week, 26 million people tuned in to watch "Drowning On Dry Land," in which the Seattle Grace team copes with the fallout of a ferry crash.
The ensemble show, now in its third season, also has an abundance of strong characters, including Ellen Pompeo as Dr. Meredith Grey and Patrick Dempsey as Dr. Derek Shepherd. Indeed, Rhimes recently told a gathering of critics that it is getting more and more difficult fitting all 12 Grey's Anatomy regulars into storylines.
She wants to be intimately involved in the potential spinoff and, to free up her schedule, has shelved another pilot of hers about a group of female journalists, which Jeffrey Dean Morgan was scheduled to appear in.
Walsh's Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd joined the show in May 2005, appearing in the last few minutes of the Season One finale. She abruptly showed up at the Seattle hospital looking for her estranged neurosurgeon husband, Derek, and discovers he has a girlfriend.
Addison confronts him with a pointed - and explicit - remark.
Although Rhimes and ABC think Walsh's character can continue to evolve on Grey's Anatomy, it became clear in recent months that her position on the show was changing, say people familiar with the matter. Now divorced from Derek and friendly with Meredith, Addison has had fewer ways to keep busy - and fewer fireworks to entertain viewers.
ABC is approaching the spinoff in a smart way, says Norman Lear, the TV producer who refined the art of the spinoff in the 1970s when his All in the Family spawned a record five new shows.
Too often networks try to force audiences to embrace a character just because they have an actor amenable to a spinoff - NBC's ill-fated Friends spinoff Joey, starring Matt LeBlanc, for instance. Instead, networks should "see who's popping and try to build something" around them, he says.
His advice to Rhimes: "Trust your instincts and don't force anything." He also notes that successfully juggling monster-sized egos - particularly those of the cast members not getting their own show - is a crucial to the spinoff process.
If the Grey's Anatomy special episode doesn't lead to a new series for ABC's fall schedule, the network has several high-profile projects in the pipeline to fall back on. One of them is Life on Mars, a remake of a BBC drama about a modern-day detective who finds himself transported back to 1973.
ABC also has hopes for a pilot called Dirty Sexy Money, a drama from Greg Berlanti (Dawson's Creek, Everwoo) focusing on an idealistic lawyer hired to tend to the legal - and often illegal - needs of a megarich New York family.
Talk about your Wednesday morning bombshell. While we'll miss Addison on Grey's Anatomy, we're hopeful that with Shonda at the helm, the new series will be a success. Congratulations to Kate for landing her own show!

Boo. I say again. Boo.
Jay-Jay - a 'spinoff' is a tv show based on character(s) and/or a plot line from another (usually VERY successful) show. So, in this case, Kate Walsh would continue to play Addison, but she would probably be in another hospital with a totally new cast of characters. This has been done in the past, but the chances of success aren't guaranteed. Sometimes it works ("Frasier" as a spinoff from "Cheers") and sometimes it's a terrible flop ("Joey" from "Friends" - how many shows did THAT last...). Hope this helps...
and like someone else said, if it bombs, she can always come back!
the more i think about it i don't think it's a half bad idea. honestly grey's first season was without addison and they did just fine. and if any one of the doctors can pull this off i think it would be addison. i really like her as a character and kate walsh is a great actress with a lot of comedic talent. if they put a few interesting ppl with her it really might be okay.
i really hope this isnt true. i love addison and what she contributes to the greys cast. without her..i dont know. im obviously still going to watch greys, and i might even watch the spinoff because i love addison, but still. i agree with a lot of people here: if it aint broke, dont fix it.
i seriously hope this is a rumor. a horrible, HORRIBLE rumor.
this is a total fuck up if you ask me..looks like shonda is getting the big head. this will fail and we will lose addie for no reason. Why replace addie for this new woman...she is not near as gorgeous as Addison btw...im totally pissed...
one word- Joey. Take it as you wish, thats my thoughts on this particular subject. it would be hard to create a spinoff on greys because greys is sooooooo unique. they would be too close in plot it just wouldn't work. There is an upside to this however- Greys fans would be able to basically watch *two* new episodes a week!!! that would be amazing!!! Maybe they could call it "Addisons Anatomy" or "Sorting Out All the Mc's In Your McLife".
I love her she is the most beautiful woman on the show she's great. Hate to see her go I hope the spinoff is worth losing her on GA.
I just hope that if it doesn't work out, they will absolutely put Kate Walsh back on Grey's. It would be tragic to lose her character. I think I could get on board with the spin-off if we were guaranteed to have Addison Montogmery in our lives, in one form or another.

One woman's Red Line reroute: a treetop view and faster commute
BY ROSALIND ROSSI Transportation Reporter May 20, 2013 8:02AM
Updated: June 22, 2013 6:11AM
Red Line rider Stephanie Williams zoomed to work Monday using CTA alternatives that proved faster, prettier and cheaper than her normal commute.
"This was excellent. This was better," Williams said of her first rush-hour commute since Sunday's Red Line South shutdown.
"I give the CTA a thumbs-up."
Some 80,000 CTA L riders faced a new commute to work Monday during the first rush-hour test of the CTA's five-month, $425 million reconstruction of Red Line South, from Cermak to 95th.
Williams, 45, drove in from Dolton and as usual parked near the 87th Street Red Line station. There, at 6:15 a.m. she started using a network of CTA alternatives that shaved almost a half-hour off her commute and made the rest of her ride to work free.
The free shuttle from 87th to the Garfield Green Line station was faster than the Red Line because it was an express bus with no stops, Williams said. Jumping immediately on a Red Line train, her ride to Chicago Avenue was faster because she traveled on Green Line tracks — without the Red Line's notorious slow zones.
And instead of staring out at cement and Dan Ryan drivers, Williams got to look out at spring green treetops and even a rooftop garden because she was traveling on Green Line tracks.
"This is good scenery," Williams said. "I think this will be a better commute."

you are right about those tutorials, the one you gave and the one I found are almost copies of each other.
About manually moving:
can you give me some hints:
- for example how do I get a list of all installed applications? there has to be a dpkg or apt option to get this list, so I could at least duplicate this.
- about duplicating settings as I am not sure I can duplicate everything manually, what needs to be copied over except for the ispconfig stuff (which is already covered further up in this thread) - /etc /usr /var maybe?
- anything which you strongly discourage me copying over?

MK activity tonight
Tonight from 6-9 pm, we will be leading an activity for the high school students from Mexico City Christian Academy. It's been a while since we've done anything like this, but our good friends asked us to do it, so we're going to have something once a month for them.
They have promoted it as a fun time, so I'm in the middle of trying to figure out some fun things to do. It seems I'm not as fun as I used to be. We'll see after tonight.
All-school chapel
I teach in middle school and high school chapel at Mexico City Christian Academy (an English speaking school serving the missionary and foreign community in northwest Mexico City) every other week. This week, the director isn't here, so I am also teaching the all-school chapel this morning. For some reason, I'm not exactly thrilled about it. Maybe it's because you never know what to expect from little kids. Maybe it's because the age range is just so big (K-12th grade). Anyway, if you think about it, pray for me.
My day
Today, I spoke in chapel at MCCA. I finished up the study we were doing on bad guys vs. good guys. I took the info from Jonathan Edwards's Treaty on Religious Affections. After chapel, I had to hurry to the seminary for a faculty meeting that lasted until 12:30. I stayed there working until 1:30 pm, and then I came home and spend time with the family.
We went to the store, got some Krispy Kremes, and watched the Florida Gators win the National Championship. Oh…I also posted a video of Above and Beyond for Videoblogging week.
Oh, by the way, today marks the end of an era. We finally got rid of Compuserve. We no longer have our @cs.com email addresses, so please only use the gmail ones that you should already have.
Water too cold
I was sad today because the water was too cold to go in the pool. We put some in there, I stuck my feet in, and they about froze. So, we couldn't go in the pool today.
We did go to the tianguis (little side of the road traveling markets) and bought some fruit (also priced some stuff for the group). I also spoke in chapel at MCCA. We went to Sam's Club, Burger King, Costco, and a Home Improvement Store (to look for boards for the group). We had dinner with the Torbert family, so it was a good day.
I have a meeting tomorrow night with the owner of a gymnastics school about the mats we need for the group, so please pray we get it all worked out.
New Prayer Card
We had a good picture taken of us at Xochimilco a few weeks ago, so we made it into a prayer card. We had them printed today, and they'll be in the mail to our newsletter mailing list soon. If you're not on the list but want to be, let us know.
Today, I spoke at MCCA chapel early in the morning. Then, I went to the seminary for a little while, and later, we went to Rene and his wife's house for lunch. Huberto went with us, and we had a good time with them. Rene has been a good friend, and he drives the bus for all of our groups. He'll be driving for us when the group comes in March, too.
Time with the family
Chapel at MCCA went well this morning. I sure have missed hanging out with those kids. I spoke on Noah and how he pleased God. I think I surprised them when I explained that God had been so angry that He wanted to destroy all of mankind. I hope it made sense and that they learned something about their own personal walk with God.
I spent the afternoon with Janell and Nathan, and then we went to a monthly missionary fellowship at the Torbert's house. We had a good time. Tomorrow, we are meeting with our friends Tim and Annette for lunch. I'm looking forward to that.

Mr. Hamill joined Philips in 1986 and has been in charge of Philips Lighting since 2001. Since then, he has overseen 3 years of market share gains, industry leading EBIT performance, and best-in-class delivery time and inventory management.
Mr. Hamill accepted the above role on the basis of a limited period with a view to subsequently returning to the UK to rejoin his family. He has agreed to remain with Philips for a further 6 months after he steps down as CEO of Philips Lighting, working closely with the Board of Management to advance the company's performance improvement program.
Mr. Hamill will be succeeded by Theo van Deursen, currently ad-interim CEO of the Lighting Electronics business group and until recently responsible for the transition program of the Philips Components businesses.
