- Performance Evaluation - Annual Report Year 2 (2006)
- In this paper a performance measuring infrastructure,developed for the prototype and simulator, concering the experiment configuration, data measurement, and data collection, is presented. A corresponding performance evaluation framework is defined to obtain the metrics from the measured data. Initial experiments were carried out to test the developed prototype, simulator and the performance measuring infrastructure.
- Proof-of-Concept Application - Annual Report Year 3 (2007)
- In this report the progress of developing the proof-of-concept application in the CATNETS project is presented. Hence the development of the necessary performance measuring components as well as a distributed application to execute on economic-enhanced Grid/P2P platforms and middleware integration are described.
- Performance Evaluation - Annual Report Year 3 (2007)
- This report describes the work done and results obtained in third year of the CATNETS project. Experiments carried out with the different configurations of the prototype are reported and simulation results are evaluated with the CATNETS metrics framework. The applicability of the Catallactic approach as market model for service and resource allocation in application layer networks is assessed based on the results and experience gained both from the prototype development and simulations.
- Simulator Development - Annual Report Year 2 (2006)
- In this paper the simulation environment for the CATNETS project is defined further. The chosen simulator is adopted in terms of new features an architecture changes in order to provide a valid simulation environment for Application Layer Network scenarios. Furthermore the requirements for a scenario generator and the needed configuration mechanisms for the actual simulation runs are introduced.
- Evaluation and Metrics Framework (2005)
- In this paper a metrics framework for evaluating different scenarios in the CATNETS project is defined. The aim is to use this framework to compare the catallactic scenario against the central auctioneer.
- Analysis of current middleware in peer-to-peer and grid implementations for enhancement by catallactic mechanisms (2005)
- Die Arbeit definiert Anforderungen an Grid und Peer-to-Peer Middleware Architekturen und analysiert diese auf ihre Eignung für die prototypische Umsetzung der Katallaxie. Eine Middleware-Architektur für die Umsetzung der Katallaxie in Application Layer Netzwerken wird vorgestellt.
- Proof-of-Concept Application - Annual Report Year 1 (2005)
- In this document the Cat-COVITE Application for use in the CATNETS Project is introduced and motivated. Furthermore an introduction to the catallactic middleware and Web Services Agreement (WS-Agreement) concepts is given as a basis for the future work. Requirements for the application of Cat-COVITE with in catallactic systems are analysed. Finally the integration of the Cat-COVITE application and the catallactic middleware is described.
- A Policy Framework including Trust and Reputation in Grid Environments (2007)
- This paper examines the role of policies in different grid environments. A Grid technology becomes standardized and stable, various business models are envented and increasingly applied, and economic implications can be observed.Asymmetrically distributed information may allow for opportunistic behaviour of service providers or users who exploit the information gap between providers and consumers on the quality of services.
- Theoretical and Computational Basis for Economical Ressource Allocation in Application Layer Networks -Annual Report Year 1 (2005)
- This paper identifies and defines suitable market mechanisms for Application Layer Networks (ALNs). On basis of the structured Market Engineering process, the work comprises the identification of requirements which adequate market mechanisms for ALNs have to fulfill. Subsequently, two mechanisms for each, the centralized and the decentralized case are described in this document.5

As Bruce recalls it, he was quite vocal about the money -- his money -- that the police had seized. He complained to reporters about it. He showed Stiegelmeier the canceled check he'd written to the handyman. "The money orders have my name on them," he says. "What did they do? Throw them in the fireplace? They never gave me any notice, and they knew it was my money that was taken."
All Douglas Bruce wants is to sell his last property in the city and shake the dust of Denver from his boots. And to restore his good name by overturning his one criminal conviction, the only blot on his record. And to get his five thousand bucks back. And...and...
"An apology would be nice," he says, "but I'm not counting on it."

seeks to amend BASSET certificate requirement
September 10, 2008
CONTACT: Ted Penesis (email@example.com)
The Illinois Liquor Control Commission is requesting the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules (JCAR) to amend an Illinois public health rule by reducing the mandatory training hours required to receive a Beverage Alcohol Sellers and Server Education and Training (BASSET) certificate. The Illinois Liquor Control Commission mandates minimum training standards to be met by certifying agencies who issue BASSET certificates to alcoholic beverage sellers and servers. Many local jurisdictions and corporate businesses mandate server training prior to obtaining a liquor license.
Due to enhancements in instruction methods since the original passage of the rules for BASSET certification, the ILCC has determined that BASSET certification instructors can thoroughly teach a course in responsible alcohol sales and service in 4 hours for on-premises license personnel and 3 hours for off-premises sales personnel. The current minimum time period for instruction is 6 hours (4 hours for in house programs).
The Commission has set a deadline of October 31, 2008 for the submission of comments on this BASSET certification rule amendment.
If you wish to comment or have information that you feel would be helpful to the Commission and the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules (JCAR) in its deliberations on this issue, please forward them to Richard R. Haymaker no later than October 31, 2008. You may send these comments via email to firstname.lastname@example.com or to the following address:

I typically don't reply to something when I'm confused but I had to this time. There must be some joke I missed (highly likely, considering the trends on here change practically by the minute and by having a job, I'm here roughly 1/20th as often as the average user and so miss a lot). April is the 4th month "4". 2020 "20". Thus 4/20. I'm pretty sure I've never written a date with the year first or ever seen it written that way anywhere. Someone redirect me toward knowledge!!!

Our Campaign
The Campaign to Stop Window Falls grew out of concern by injury prevention specialists who were seeing a high number of children entering the trauma system in Oregon from falling out of second-story windows during warm weather. While relatively few children die from this, one child, Parker Reck, died in 2009. This campaign is dedicated to the memory of Parker.
Becca Cunningham, a local mom wrote this window safety book for children after her son fell from a window. To support the Campaign to Stop Window Falls and order a book through Authorhouse, click here.
Window falls account for approximately 8 deaths and 3,300 injuries among children ages 5 and under annually, according to the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission. In Oregon, about 40 children ages 0-5 fell from windows annually. The majority of window falls occur between the months of May and September, typically during warmer weather when windows are open for cooling and ventilation.
When opening windows – Stop and Lock at 4 inches.
Window falls are predictable, therefore preventable. On this website, there is information on:
- What families can do to prevent child window falls
- Where families can find information on what kind of window stop, lock or guard is needed for their particular windows
- Where educators can learn about the issue and spread this injury prevention message
We need your help to reduce the risk of injury to children – please learn about window falls and take action!
Window Fall Prevention Tips from Safe Kids Oregon
Install Window Guards and Stops
- Screens are meant to keep bugs out, not children in.
- Install window stops to windows you want to open no more than four inches.
- For windows you want to open more than 4 inches, properly install window guards to prevent window falls.
Open Windows From the Top and Close After Use
- If you have windows that can open from both top and bottom, make a habit of opening just the top to prevent falls. Keep in mind that as kids grow, they may have enough strength, dexterity and curiosity to open the bottom window.
- Keep windows locked and closed when they are not being used.
Keep Kids From Climbing Near Windows
- For your crawlers and climbers, move chairs, cribs and other furniture away from windows to help prevent window falls.
Reminder: Never move a child who appears to be seriously injured after a fall – call 911 and let trained medical personnel move the child with proper precautions.
We thank our Key Sponsors of the Stop at 4 Campaign:

Obviously, when you're out breathing in the fresh air and exploring the wide open spaces, you don't want to be bothered by your phone ringing, getting incessant texts, or any other distraction that takes your eyes and mind off of Mother Nature's glory. It is especially so in today's world, where everyone from six to ninety-six has a smartphone that rings, dings, quacks and sings. However, you can use these devices to your advantage. There are a plethora of incredibly useful apps to help you better navigate, understand, and explore the outdoors. Granted, battery life is a concern (take a solar charger into consideration?), but used sparingly and intelligently, you can transform your previously annoying device into a weapon of recreation. Here are a few favorites.
Developer: Groundspeak
Cost: Free Intro, $9.99 Full Access
If you're not familiar, Geocaching is a navigation-based activity that is much like a scavenger hunt aided by GPS. Enthusiasts will place a container full of goodies or a sign-in log at a specific place, mark the coordinates, and place those coordinates online with a set of hints, clues, and guidelines. Goodies range from trinkets like keychains or plastic army men to tokens from vacation spots, or really anything that reflects the originator's personality. The rule is, if you take something you must leave something, so gather up your coolest whatnots from the junk drawer in your kitchen and get hunting. Geocaches are found in any number of different places, from parks to grocery store parking lots. Chances are you've walked right by a good number of cleverly-placed caches without even realizing it. The app will show you the nearest caches, hints, previous finds, and many other things. It may drain your battery a bit while searching for a signal, but you can also use it to lead you directly to the cache, as it provides a compass and a rough distance to the cache from where you stand. It's definitely worth the small fee for the unlimited fun outdoor opportunities.
Developer: GoSoftWorks
Cost: $1.99
Whether you're an astronomy fan, trying to impress someone, or just generally interested in the Great Beyond, GoSkyWatch is a super cool app. Simply point your phone to the heavens (day or night), and it provides you with the name of whatever star, planet, moon, or giant asteroid hurtling toward Earth that you are looking at. It will tell you the name of any constellations said star may be a part of, and even a compass to tell you which way you are facing. One of the neatest features is that it'll give you a photo of what they look like close up. For those who fancy themselves junior astronomers, you can share what you're looking at via nearly all forms of social media, email, or text.
National Parks by National Geographic
Developer: National Geographic Society
Cost: Free; full guides for purchase
This app is the ultimate guide for planning and enjoying your next trip to one of America's coolest parks. It provides all of the general information such as where to stay, what to do, and even local time and weather conditions. Points of interest at each park have been marked and can be accessed via GPS, there are photography tips and examples, and a whole boatload of other options and accessories. If you're a die-hard American traveler, this app is a must.
ViewRanger Outdoors GPS
Developer: Augmentra
Cost: $14.99 for full version
Imagine having a topographic map for every public trail you can imagine right in your pocket, only not nearly as bulky and cumbersome. That's a rough description of the many things that ViewRanger can do. It can track your speed, elevation, ETA, how far you've traveled, and several other statistics. You can share where you're at, what you're doing, and pretty much everything you can think of about your trip via social media, whether you're doing it for fun or for safety purposes. One of the greatest features is that you can actually download maps so that you can use them offline in case you are way out in the sticks. There are an incredible amount of features with this app, and it can only be fully appreciated by downloading it and playing around with all of the features for yourself.

William Gallas arrived as Claudio Ranieri's first summer signing as Chelsea manager ahead of his first full season in charge of the Blues.
"He is rated as one of the top defenders in France and can play anywhere across the back"
Colin Hutchinson
The Italian tactician had replaced Gianluca Vialli five games into the previous campaign and Gallas's £6.2m signing from Olympique Marseille constituted the first stage of a summer rebuilding plan that included the arrivals of Frank Lampard and Emmanuel Petit from West Ham United and Barcelona respectively.
Gallas, who signed a five-year deal with the London club, had yet to win the first of his 84 caps for France but was an Under-21 regular and had come highly recommended by Chelsea's Marcel Desailly and Didier Deschamps.
"The club had been after me from last season but at that stage [Marseille's] management view was that they couldn't let me go," Gallas told the club's website. "Chelsea knew how to be patient, which proves how much they really wanted me."
The 23-year-old would go on to establish a formidable central-defensive partnership with Desailly and then John Terry, helping the club keep 16 consecutive clean sheets when deployed alongside the Englishman.
"He is rated as one of the top defenders in France and can play anywhere across the back," said Chelsea's managing director Colin Hutchinson of a player who would prove him right by filling in at left-back for long stretches of his five seasons at Stamford Bridge.
In his first Barclays Premier League campaign Gallas helped the Blues finish in sixth place, as they had done the previous season, but with the fourth-best defensive record in the League.
Things would only get better for the Frenchman at Stamford Bridge as he would go on to win two Barclays Premier League titles and become an established international defender.

"This is a better cigar than Tatuaje!"Ambos Mundos Short #2 Sumatra
This is supposed to be a value priced alternative to Tatuaje with slightly lower quality tobacco. I find these to be more flavorful in the Sumatra wrapper than Tatuaje. Looking forward to trying the Habano as well.btg in Michigan October 25, 2011

Even though my special hasn't yet been seen, I'm already getting outraged e-letters about it. There's even a website that condemns it as "probably just another skeptic's hatchet job." Some are screaming at me for having Philip Klass on the program, others for having David Jacobs, others for daring to mention implants.
Personal likes and dislikes had nothing to do with the choices that were made for the special. This is the first time in twenty years that there has been a UFO special on one of the major networks. I would never dream of doing such a program without giving the major investigators their say- and that includes the skeptics and the ones who don't like me. Budd Hopkins and Phil Klass both get what I believe is the best public forum they have ever had. So does Dave Jacobs. Don Ecker, Jerry Clark and Michael Lindemann reveal themselves as the experts that they are, and Joe Nicholl as an articulate skeptic. Derryl Simms and Roger Leir come across as pioneers, which they certainly are.
I keep getting these e-mails accusing mainly Klass and Simms of being "disinformation agents." I can tell you, as somebody who has suffered from being falsely identified as a CIA agent, these accusations fall, in the absence of proof, on deaf ears. If you can offer documentary evidence, or as I have seen done in one or two cases in the past, strong circumstantial evidence that somebody is involved in professionally orchestrated disinformation, then do it. When this sort of thing can be proved, it is very important and useful. Anybody concerned enough to be writing me e-letters about it, why not go out and see if you can get the goods?
The construction of such a program demands that one go beyond the level of personal opinions and look at the larger issues, such as the right of the public to see as many sides of this complex situation as possible, presented as fairly as possible. This means that the skeptics have to have their say, as do the believers, and as many of the different `in betweens' as possible. It also means that people who have struggled for twenty and thirty years in this difficult field have a right, no matter how they may or may not have treated me in the past-they have a right to a fair and full display of their efforts.
I am an investigator, not a partisan. I don't really care, in the end, what causes UFOs and close encounter experiences. What I am interested in is the truth.
Which gets me to another issue. I am also criticized, more and more, for going on the Art Bell program. I'm told, `oh, you shouldn't go on that show. He has those crazies Dick Hoagland and Ed Dames on all the time, and they're a couple of liars.' I consider Art one of the great radio artists of our time. His show is the best thing that has ever happened to edge thinking, in my opinion. It is the nature of the edge to be wrong a lot of the time. If Art's guests weren't taking chances, he'd be doing something wrong. People who aren't mature enough to discriminate shouldn't be listening.
Of course Dick Hoagland and Ed Dames fly too close to the sun sometimes. But at least they have the courage to do it. It is an extraordinary thing, the courage to be wrong. I know, I've dared it a little bit myself, and it's hard. It's real hard.
And yet these guys are willing to make wild predictions before millions of people, see them fail, then come back and try again. They are speculators in the currency of the mind, and should be respected for what they do. My imagination has soared upon hearing some of Dames's prophecies and Hoagland's predictions. And when they haven't come true I've thought not that they are a couple of charlatans, but rather that they freed me to entertain some ideas that I never otherwise would have touched. I see both men as being deeply free human beings. I respect them for their wildness. But it the privacy of my own mind, I cut the cards-which I am sure most of us do. And I am sure that they respect us for that, too-indeed, that they count on us to do it.
Incidentally, on the night before the special, I'll be on Art's show in the first hour with Mark Wolper, the man who had the courage to actually buy Confirmation and put it on the air, and Robert Davi, our host. That's February 16. And on the 17th, I'll be on again in the first hour with some of the principal figures in the program to answer questions, which is some kind of a first, I think.

Hi Guys,
I'm frustrated to see the amount of Body Builders with Herniated and Bulging Discs here.
In the past Month I've gone from Healing, to worse than I was when I got the injury, to Healing again slowly.
I figured I'd make this post so that we can share the bits of advice we have learned.
I've learned a few things from
as well as various Physios, Doctors, Rhematologists (sp?), Chiropractors ect.
In a Nut shell I'm going to post ( for free ) What I've learned from these books and how to heal this bastard, at least to the best of its ability.
1) STOP LIFTING, Stop doing anything, You need to rest for a few days first. This Step is usless without Step 2 So if you plan on resting and dont follow step 2 your not going anywhere fast.
2) McKenzie Stretch, Every 2 hours do the Mckenzie stretch
This is a vital part of your healing, Every 2 hours do 10 of those, What it does is gently pushes the Disc Gel back in where it's supposed to be, If you dont do this you wont heal, period.
It's why so many people have this injury for ages and ages and never heal.
After doing it for 2 days I had the Sciatica from my L5S1 Pain go from my big toe to my thigh, in 2 days time it might be in my buttock or lower back. You want it to stay in your lower back, not anywhere else, that means its healing, its in place and its where the injury is.
3) Bounce a Therapy ball GENTLY, 5 mins in the morning, 5 mins in the evening.
What this does is pumps the discs of your spine GENTLY , giving it the oxygen it needs to heal and pumping out all bad toxins. You should only do this gently, if it hurts stop.
The muscles around the disc injury should feel a bit of pain, maybe 10% , this means the toxins are being pumped out and into nearby things ( muscles can get rid of them 100 times easier than discs can )
4) March on a Mini trampolene for 5 mins every morning AFTER Therapy Ball.
This makes the muscles around your core work and remember how they should be, Your entire muscle balance will change if you get a Disc injury, you will walk different, lean different and in general put stresses on other parts of your body.
MARCH, As in Walk, dont jump.
5) Matress , My Biggest mistake.
I was almost healed, I went to a soft matress, and within 2 weeks I was in agony and had a fresh L4/L5 Disc injury.
Firm Matress, Pillow inbetween knees when sleeping on site, or a pillow or two under your knees when your back. Your body only heals when you sleep, you want it to heal all bloody night and for this to happen the disc HAS to stay in place with a proper sleeping posture.
6) Glucosamine, Chrondroitine Sulfate (sp?) , MSM.
( 800 Mg or the usual adult does , HAS to have all 3 of those ingredients , Dont take if allergic to shellfish )
You need these 3 vitamins in a daily vitamin, this will restore the disc tissue faster, since taking them my healing has sped up 50% at least.
7) Walking Not Running - Your discs need to gently heal, jogging, lifting is a big nono. For Me even walking hurts so It's difficult for me, but the majority of people walk just fine.
8) Dont Belive everything you read on the internet.
The whole ' rest for 2-3 days and resume normal activities ' is total bull****.
IMO the disc takes at least 2-3 Days of Mckenzie stretches just to get it to slip back in, then it takes 4-6 weeks for the disc to heal enough to return to NORMAL actitivies.
If you keep following what I've written within 2-5 years the disc should be fully healed according to new research.
9) Muscle Imbalances, Chriopractors, Lasers ect - Im not convinced any of these work, All the muscle imbalance workouts Ive done have hurt me and left me in agony for days.
Let Me explain a very important fact, At the moment my Right hip is twisted and leaning out, THIS ISNT A MUSCLE IMBALANCE.
It is my body's way of trying to take stress off the injury, Clearly if I body built right now I'd be in ALOT of trouble, You might only have minor changes in your body, mine is fairly noticable.
10) Stretch Stretch Stretch, Hamstrings, Quads, Daily, follow some from your local Physio or PM me for a list of the ones I did.
11) Strengthen the hell out of your core, Only to be done after 2 weeks of doing mckenzie stretches and relaxing, Everytime you do a sit up, lean over , or twist the disc gets injured and pops out, meaning you have to do more mckenzie stretches to fix it.
12) Good Days and Bad Days - Your going to have days where you think you are fully healed, dont be decieved. The Pain will subside alot quicker than the disc will heal.
I made the mistake of thinking I was healing as I was pain free on the second week.
I played a rather heavy game of tennis with my friends and boy did I regret it.
Let your body heal, Im no doctor but I wouldnt lift at ALL for at least 6 - 12 months, if not 2 years to be safe.
If you lift too soon your disc will have a weakness and that means next time you dead lift... POP.
13) Yoga - Do some, trust me, Only 2 weeks after you've sustained the injury though, no sooner.
14) Dont sit for more than 30 mins ( L4/L5, L5/S1 ) Disc bulges/herniations mainly.
Get up and stretch every 30 mins, I havnt sat in a chair for nearly 4 weeks, everytime I do I get a sore big toe, achey legs and general sciatica, this means the nerves in my back are being pressed by a squished disc.
* I also think Hydrotherapy is awesome if you can do some
* Stretch frequently, anything that can de-compress your spine, you want as much room as you can in there to get the disc in.
* Dont panic if you dont heal in 2 weeks like the internet says, I certainly didn't and I'm a 22 year old Healthy Male who's spent 2 weeks relaxing on a beach lying down.
Anyways that's what I've learned from spending $1000's on Physios, Books that claim to heal bulging discs and yeah.

The following article was written by King Rama IV of the Kingdom of
Thailand in 1855 in response to the British Governor to
Hongkong. And another related article from the Nation
Newspaper on 13 December 1999.
The Kingdom and People of Siam with a Narrative of the History to thatCountry in 1855
B.E.2400 Volume 1, page 62 - 69
I requested the King to favour me with an account of his own dynasty, andreceived the following reply:-
His Excellency Sir John Bowring, Knighted Doctor of Laws, the Governorof Hong Kong, &c. &c. &c. &c.
RESPECTED Sir,- In regard to the particular narrative or ancient true occurrence of the present royal dynasty reigning upon Siam, I beg to say what I knew from statement of our parents and ancestors, and other tolerable and corresponding families whom I have been present of inconsiderable space of time when they have been living or alive.
The first family of our paternal ancestors, it is said, have been inhabitants of the city of Hanswatty (proper Sanskrit name), the capital of Pegu, written by Bishop Pallegoix in corrupted sound or pronouncing of Sanskrit name Hongsawadi, upon the time of reign the King of that city Pegu named Jumna ti cho by Peguen name, and Dusadi sawijay by Sanskrit name (marked in book of the Bishop Pallegoix with figure 1). This family became officers of state; employed as part of military service of that King who has conquered Ayudia on about Christian era 1552, have placed the Siamese King of Northern Siam, who has been allied to him, upon the throne of whole Siam, at Ayudia, in name of Phra Maha Dharmmarajatdhiraj (marked 2 in the book in which the corrupted name printed); and the King marked 1 has taken the son of the Siamese King promised to be dependant of the Pegu on that time, the royal son accompanied the King, marked 1, named Phra Naresr (printed in book Phra Narit, and marked 3), who has been or was at Pegu during the living time or reign of the conqueror, in demise of whom he observed the governments of Pegu, being in great distress in complex opinion to establish the successor of the expired King for about half a month, has conciliated many families of the inhabitants of that city in his power, and took them with him, flied from thence, returned to his native land, Siam, and proclaimed independence to the Pegu again, the aforesaid family or party of military officers of state then have allied with King Phra Naresr, marked 3; on his returning to Siam has accompanied him, and took their residence at Ayudia, which was bestowed them by thatKing.
A large Buddhas image was constructed at a place of worship near oftheir residence, remained until the present day with some ancientinscription.
After the time of the King Phra Naresr, marked 3, the particular narrative statement of this family is now disappeared to us until the time of reign of Phra Narayu, printed in book Phra Narai, marked 4, reigned at Ayudia and Lawoh about the Christian year 1656 to 1682. On the reign of this king, two brothers, extraordinary persons, have been descendants of the said family; became most pleased to the king, who has appointed the older brother in place or office of the lord of the foreign affair, in name or title of Chau Phra Phra Khlang, who has been at presence of the receipt of the French embassy visited Siam upon that time, and the younger brother of his Excellency Phya Phra Klang, named Mr. Pal, was appointed head of Siamese embassy to France, of return of friendship with the French Government, and met with the being wrecked lost of the ship at Cape of Good Hope, where he with his suit remained during considerable while, and afterward became to France, met with favorable treatment of the French Government upon that time, and returned to Siam, when his older brother was died. The King Phra Narayu has appointed him (Mr. Pal) the head of embassy in the office of his elder brother, the lord of foreign affair, Chau Phya Phra Khlang : from this person extraordinary our ancestors were said to be descendants ; but their office and affairs in royal service were not continued in generations during a few reign of their Majesties Siamese King, who succeeded his Majesty the King Phra Narayu, until the time of his Majesty Bhumindr Rajatdhiraj, marked 5, reigned upon Siam since the Christian year 1706 to 1732, in which the first person being father of the first king, and grandfather of the royal father of the present king (myself), and late king (my late brother) of Siam, was an extraordinary son of a family descended from aforesaid lords of foreign affairs, who removed their situation at Ayudia for happiness of lives, and situated their place at Sakutrang, a port in small river, being branch of great river, at the connected realms of Northern and Southern Siam, at about latitude N. 13 15 30 more little, and long. 99 90 E. : the said extraordinary person was born there, and became man of skill and knowledge and ability of royal service, came from Saketrang to Ayudia, where he was introduced to the royal service, and became married with a beautiful daughter of a Chinese richest family at Chinese compound or situation within wall of city and in south-eastern corner of Ayudia, and became pleased by the kings marked 5 and 6, and appointed in office of the preparer of royal letters and communication for northern direction (i. e. for all states or regions of both dependencies, and independency to Siam at northern direction), and the protector of the great royal seal for that purpose being ; his title was His Excellency Phra Acksom Sundom Smiantra. He has five children ; his first wife, who afterward was died, and has, secondly, married with the younger sister of his late wife, with whom hehas a single daughter.
In particular of the aforesaid five children, the first was a son becameman in service of the second King upon the time of the King of Siam marked 6, and leaving a sole daughter only was died before Ayudia was conquered by Burman Army ; the second and third were the daughters their descendants, many remained until the present day (the royal mother of the present Major and second Kings of Siam (myself and my younger brother) was a daughter, being third child of the later). The fourth was an extraordinary son, became the first King of Siam in the present dynasty marked in the book 8, who was born in March 1736, of Christian era, and of whom the present and late Kings of Siam (myself and my late brother) are grandchildren,, and the fifth was the person who was born in September 1743 of the Christian era, and who became finally the second King upon the reign of his elder brother here, and died before his brothers death 6 years. The firstly said ancestor His Excellency Phra Acksom Sundom Smiantra, has also another illegitimate son, being youngest born from a maid-servant whom he (H. E. our ancestor) has take with him, went to Northern Siam upon the time of the Ayudia being sieged by Burman army, on the Christian years 1765 and 1766, to obtain new situation or station for refuge, leaving here all above said legitimate sons and daughters who were married and live with their own families, for the consequences of difficulty in going with large party in veryhurricane and hindering manner of journey.
He, on his arrival at Phitsanulok, the great city at Northern Siam, became regent or superintendent of supreme governor of that city, who proclaimed King of Siam after burning of Ayudia was in hand of Burman army, and who died by structing or fever after a few months of the royal proclamation. In this destress H. E., our ancestor, took refuge at a town out of that city, where he was died of fiver, and burn by his maid-servant, wife, and the son born of her. His relics were brought here by them, and were delivered to his legitimate children here, and remained in our royal house of worship or royal ancestors until thepresent day.
And his two extraordinary son, on losing of Ayudia, took refuge at various places, and afterward became combined with the King Phya Tarksing, first of Bangkok kings, marked 7 in book: finally, the elder was appointed the supreme general Chau Phya Chukkry, the lord regent of country, and afterward styled in name or title and dignity of Maha Krasutesuk, id est, the King of war, who has resisted Burman armies came to take station of Siam every year upon that time.
The younger was appointed the King of Northern Siam, governing at Phisnuloke, where his father has been and died; he bore the name of Chau Phya Surasint. So, upon that time, there were three kings presented in Siam, viz., Supreme King Phya Tark, King of war, our grandfather, and the latter said King of Northern Siam.
On the year of Christian era 1781, when two brother kings were sent totranquil Cambodia, which was in distress or disturbance of rebellion, the King Phya Tarksing, marked 7, remained here. He came mad or furious, saying he is Buddha, &c., and put many persons of innocents to death, more than 10,000 men, and compelled the people to pay various amounts of money to royal treasure, with any lawful taxes and reasonable causes; so here great insurgents took place, who apprehended the mad king and put to death, and sent their mission to Cambodia, and invited two Kings of war and of Northern Siam to return here for the crown and throne of whole Siam and its dependency.
Our grandfather was enthroned and crowned in May, 1782, in name of Phra Budhyot fa chulatoke, marked in book 8; his reign continued 27 years; his demise took place on the year 1809, in which our father had succeeded him. His coronation took place on August, 1809; his reign continued happily 15 years; his expiration took place in the year 1824, in month of July. His royal name, Phra Budh Lord Luh nabhaluy, marked 9 (names of these two kings were printed in book, by Bishop Pallegoix, Pheen din ton and Pheen din Klang). These names, improper as they were very popular and vulgar, are Pheen din ton, i. e. , former or first reign; Pheen din Klang, ,middle or next reign only, not royal title.
Our elder brother, the late king, succeeded our royal father; hiscoronation took place on August, 1824, His name was Param Dharwik rajahdhiraj (proper Sanskrit), and in Siamese name Phra Nangklau chau yuhua. His reign continued 26 years; his demise took place on2nd April 1851 ; then mysuccession of him concluded, and I was crowned on May15th of thatyear. My name in Siam is Phra Chomklau chau yu hua, and I bear the Sanskrit name as ever signed in my several letters-
in contract that are
Rex Siamensium.
December 13, 1999
Burma, or rather several kingdoms which once occupied that territory, hasplayed the role of belligerent throughout much of Thailand's early history. The most serious defeats were inflicted in 1569, when Burmese armies captured Ayutthaya and occupied the kingdom for 15 years, and in 1767 when two armies from Ava pillaged the city, reduced it to smoking rubble and enslaved tens of thousands of its citizens. Ayutthaya was at war with Burmese kingdoms on and off from 1438 during the reign of King Boromrachathirat II (aka Samphraya). In 1569 King Bayinnaung of Hongsawaddy (aka Hantawaddi) captured the city, put his ally Maha Thammaracha on the throne and made the kingdom into a vassal state.
For much of Ayutthaya's early history, members of two differentdynasties, Suphan Buri and Sukhothai, had fought for control of the kingdom. By enthroning Maha Thammaracha, a member of the Sukhothai dynasty, and eliminating members of the rival Suphan Buri dynasty, the Burmese succeeded in ushering in a long period of political stability. However their arrival also brought to an end the period ofprosperity and
cultural renaissance initiated by King Trailok in the mid-15th century. One of King Maha Thamaracha's first tasks was to rebuild the damaged capital. During the Hongsawaddy suzerainty, Ayutthaya's fortunes were at their lowest ebb and, according to historian Srisakara Vallibhotama, the Khmer kingdom of Angkor (which was then in decline) tried to take advantage of Ayutthaya's weakness by re-occupying territory it hadearlier lost.
In 1590, Hongsawaddy went to war with Ava, a neighboring kingdom in Burma, and Prince (later King) Naresuan took advantage of the situation to declare Ayutthaya independent. Naresuan reigned until 1605 engaging the forces of Hongsawaddy and Ava in battle several times. Although he never managed to defeat either kingdom, Burmese armies were not to pose a serious threat to Ayutthaya again until the mid-18th century. In the intervening period there was even a short-lived attempt to improvediplomatic relations.
According to historian Sunet Chutintranon, King Mahadammayaza Dipati of Ava sent a mission to King Boromkot of Ayutthaya in 1744 who reciprocated in kind the following year. War broke out with Ava again in 1759. In 1767, Eakathat, last king of Ayutthaya, was defeated by two armies from Ava. Realizing the very real threat posed by Burma, Siamese rulers during the subsequent Thon Buri and Rattanakosin periods made military allianceswith Lanna, Champasak,Vientiane and Luang Prabang.
Siam was invaded several times in the late 18th century by forces from Burma, the most significant wars being in 1775, 1776 and 1797. All attacks were successfully repulsed. And, according to Sunet Chutintranon, King Bagyidaw of Ava was planning another invasion of Siam as late as 1819. This was forestalled when his kingdom was invaded, two years later,by the British.

CABG tips?
- 1Dec 25, '10 by Rise AgainstI wanted to hear some of the nursing care that experienced nurses can provide for the care of a CABG patient. Not everything can be learned in books and some information is passed on from nurse to nurse. Can you give maybe horror stories of CABG's gone wrong or helpful tips you have picked up while caring for open heart patients.
Ex. Usually when the chest tube dressings become saturated around the chest tube this can sometimes mean that the chest tube is clotted and needs to be milked or suctioned. But only the mid chest tube can be suctioned. Other times this can just mean the puncture site of the chest tube is oozing. Important to monitor drainage of each chest tube every hour to make sure something is coming out.
Horror story- all open heart surgery patients on withdrawal from alcohol. They can either be crazy or extremely lethargic. Had a pt that had all the vitals normal on the monitor but was extremely lethargic post extubation, diaphoretic and would not speak or follow commands. Extreme change in mentation. Kept thinking it was the anesthesia and maybe he was extubated too early. Gave some narcan and he would wake up instantly and then 5 min later drift back to the way he was. Gave narcan twice that night. Also thought he may have stroked but ct was negative. In the am after worrying all night the surgeon believed it to be alcohol withdrawal. never have seen alcohol withdrawal like that.
- 0Dec 25, '10 by ocean wavesHello. A new development (to me) in the nursing care of open heart surgery patients is the pre-op and post-op finger sticks with assessment of blood sugar levels in all patients, not just diabetics. A fellow nurse told me nurses are doing these blood sugar checks at the hospital in Michigan where he personally had a cardiac bypass surgery--he said he was glad of this assessment plan because, even though he was not pre-op diabetic, the nurses detected a high abnormal blood sugar level post-op and quickly got a doctor's order for oral diabetic meds for him. Best wishes!
- 1Dec 25, '10 by lkwashingtonMy mother had open heart surgery this year. She was on q1h accuchecks with an insulin drip. She is a diabetic.
- 4Dec 25, '10 by SHURNall of our open hearts come out on an insulin gtt. Non-diabetics have it turned off and turned to Q4hr accuchecks morning of POD1 while diabetics will stay on the gtt for 24 hrs. We monitor glucose very carefully - any glucose over 200 at 0600 POD1 or POD2 is considered a "fall out" for our post op patients.
- 1Dec 25, '10 by LuxCalidaNPDefinitely review your vaso-active drips if they come back with epi, norepi, etc running, insulin gtt as well, unit policy for propofol/sedation titration, and I would also recommend talking with PT (if you have them) about why sternotomy patients have limits on arm movement: fascinating stuff. If your facility uses them, review IA balloon pumps and pacing wires.
I only had 2 patients that went horribly wrong, and it was usually due to small bleeders that caused some serious pericardial hematomas and tamponade.
Hope this helps!
- 2Dec 25, '10 by NurseStephRNQuote from ddml06on my open heart unit we keep everyone (diabetic or not) on an insulin gtt through POD 2 then we start them on a sliding scale. We've used to d/c the gtt on POD 1, but we had a few fallouts, so the surgeons changed the protocol and now we keep it through an extra night. Q4 hrs if they are above 120, ac/hs if they are below. many non-diabetics get a little concerned and ask if they are diabetic now (and some patients find out they are diabetic as a result of preop labs, etc).all of our open hearts come out on an insulin gtt. Non-diabetics have it turned off and turned to Q4hr accuchecks morning of POD1 while diabetics will stay on the gtt for 24 hrs. We monitor glucose very carefully - any glucose over 200 at 0600 POD1 or POD2 is considered a "fall out" for our post op patients.
- 0Dec 25, '10 by rachelgeorginaCan someone explain the rationale behind the insulin drip post-op for both diabetics and non-diabetics? (I'm a student and curious.)
- 3Dec 25, '10 by netglowIt's stress. Stress messes with blood sugar. CABG, if open and bypass especially, is very, very stressful to go through. This stress can shoot your sugar up. Best for you to have it managed in order for you to heal.
- 0Dec 26, '10 by MunoRNETOH withdrawal can be difficult to detect at first in OHS patients due to "pump head", which is similar to initial W/D symptoms. One of our PA's told me once that the mortality rate for post OHS patients who go into significant withdrawal is around 50%, so it's important to catch and treat early if that's the case.
We keep our OHS patients on intensive BG control (BG goal of 80-110) for 24 hours and then a goal of 80-150 for the next day 48 hours, so they are on an insulin gtt until POD 3 regardless of DM hx or not. We used to use the tight control target for all ICU patients, but now we know that tight control is only beneficial to patients who have had thoracic surgery, and that it actually causes more harm than good in all other patients.

A roadside safety check over the weekend by Chicago Ridge Police turned out to be anything but safe — and a lot shorter than planned.
The checkpoint, set up for four hours, lasted only 30 minutes before a drunken driver slammed into a flashing warning sign late Saturday night — sending officers scrambling. They had to enter the pickup truck to stop it, police said.
Lawrence Maderak, 67, of Bridgeview, was charged with drunken driving, failing to reduce speed to avoid an accident, disobeying a traffic signal and having no insurance, according to police.
They said Maderak's Dodge Ram truck was northbound in the 10500 block of Harlem Avenue about 11:30 p.m. when it ran into the sign with a flashing arrow directing drivers off the road and into the checkpoint area.
The truck continued at a slow speed toward officers at the checkpoint, and Maderak ignored their orders to stop, police said. They said an officer was able to open a door and stop the truck by putting the gearshift in park.
Police said Maderak was intoxicated and asked officers, "What's going on?" He refused a blood-alcohol test and was taken to a hospital for observation, according to police.
The warning sign, valued at more than $8,000, was heavily damaged, so police called off the safety check, police said.

The IES seeks to provide the crucial link between science and water policy, developing and harmonising indicators for water ecological assessment and developing concepts for the sustainable use of water resources.
Doonlake by D.McInerney
The aim of the European Union's Water Framework Directive (WFD) is to more effectively protect the aquatic environment across Europe. It aims to achieve at least "good ecological status", defined as a slight deviation from natural background conditions. The IES has played a leading role in harmonising ecological quality targets' across Europe. Following an unprecedented effort involving hundreds of scientists and government experts, the first results of the intercalibration exercise were formally published as a Commission Decision in 2008. The work is still ongoing and a second wave of results will be published by the Commission in 2012. These will include ecological quality targets for all the relevant water ecosystems components, covering all water body types and regions of Europe.
The EU Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD), adopted in July 2008, has a similar objective – it aims to achieve 'good environmental status' by 2020. Recently, the IES and the ICES (International Council for Exploration of the Seas) collaborated on the co-ordination of Task Groups to provide DG Environment with technical/ scientific advice for the development of a common European methodological approach for determining the main aspects of 'good environmental status', including biodiversity, food web integrity, non-indigenous species, eutrophication and chemicals. The main outcome published in 2010 was the basis for a Commission Decision on criteria and methodological standards to determine 'good environmental status'.
The IES has developed two eutrophication indices which allow the assessment of the coastal and marine ecosystem's status and physical sensitivity to eutrophication. Excessive loads of nutrients can cause eutrophication - algae growth and oxygen depletion, which damage the equilibrium of the ecosystems. The methodology developed for these spatial indices supports a harmonised assessment of coastal/marine ecosystems in different climatic zones and with different physical conditions (e.g. North Sea and Adriatic Sea) and allows the comparison of different eutrophication types and intensity and their evolution over time.
Eutrophying lake by A-M.Petrescu
Moreover, through modelling studies, the IES investigates the contribution of various sectoral activities (such as agriculture, industry, wastewater treatment) to nutrients (phosphates and nitrogen) entering European freshwaters. In an attempt to alleviate the pressures on freshwater ecosystems and European seas, the IES assesses the effectiveness of the different Directives in controlling nutrient loads originating from human activities. The results and further data and results are available through the FATE website.
An Environmental Marine Information System (EMIS) maintained and further developed by IESprovides onlinescientific information by way of geo-referenced maps (created in real-time), and supplies the user with basic navigation and interrogation tools.
The IES is working on providing guidance for monitoring the marine environment under the MSFD and co-coordinates a technical sub-group with the scope of guiding the monitoring and indicator development for assessment of marine litter.

Twellow Pulse: Real-Time Category Tracking
Since the creation of our "What are people saying?" feature on Twellow we've thought it'd be a great idea if our users could consolidate what people are saying about their favorite categories all in one place. With this in mind we've gone ahead and created a new service on Twellow called Twellow Pulse.
What exactly is Twellow Pulse? It's a simple subscription page on Twellow where users can select up to twenty categories from Twellow and track what people are saying about each, all in one place. By allowing users to place all of their favorites on one page we've greatly simplified the ability for our patrons to follow conversations that matter right now, right here on Twellow. No more jumping between multiple pages or opening multiple tabs in your browser to have all the chatter that interests you accessible. Simply login to your Twellow account, go to the Twellow Pulse page, and start adding topics that you want to follow.
We've tweaked the initial setup of Twellow Pulse so any categories you currently belong to will be automatically added to your Pulse page on your first visit. You can easily modify your Pulse by adding or removing categories via the simple tools on the page. If you don't initially belong to any categories on Twellow then just go ahead and add the ones you want.
Twellow Pulse tracks your Pulse categories of interest separately from the categories you belong to, so even if you have nothing to do with, say NASA, you can still track NASA chatter with Twellow Pulse.
And because we know a lot of people like to read their late-breaking updates in an RSS reader or other application, we've added RSS links to each Twellow Pulse. This way you can get your Pulse updates however you choose.
So give it a try. We're sure Twellow Pulse will be a worthwhile addition to the social-networking tool kits of a lot of people.

Kyle Rubisch wins the Defensive Player of the Year Award. Photo Credit: Scott Pierson
The National Lacrosse League has announced that Kyle Rubisch of the Edmonton Rush is the winner of the National Lacrosse League's Defensive Player of the Year for the 2012 season.
Rubisch completed his second season in the league by leading the NLL with 43 forced turnovers. The defenseman played in all 16 regular season games for the Rush, and was named the NLL's Defensive Player of the Week twice.
Rubisch was first on the Rush and sixth in the league with 151 loose balls and set career highs with four goals and six assists for 10 points. He was a key part of an Edmonton defense that held opponents to 175 goals during the regular season, the second-lowest total in the league.
"Kyle Rubisch had an outstanding year for the Rush and is very deserving of the Defensive Player of the Year Award", said Derek Keenan, Rush general manager and head coach. "Kyle is the ultimate team player and makes the sacrifices necessary to lead a defense. At just 23 years old, it's scary to think how much better he will be as he continues to develop. The sky is the limit".
Jeff Gilbert of the Minnesota Swarm and Mike Carnegie of the Calgary Roughnecks finished in a tie for second.
Gilbert finished with 26 forced turnovers and Carnegie averaged one forced turnover while each played all 16 games for their respective teams.
The announcements of 2012 NLL Season Awards continues Tuesday with the Transition Player of the Year. The awards are voted on by the league's board of governors, general managers and head coaches.

I just reached the one month milestone in my epic study abroad journey three days ago, and I feel the need to take the time to reflect a little on both the latest events in my life as well as my thoughts on my experience until this point.
There is currently a 30 degree difference in the temperature between Valencia and Bozeman (that's 30 degrees in my favor, fyi). The nights are slightly less miserable and sticky and suffocating, which makes going to sleep so much easier. But its so nice to know that I'll most likely be able to go to the beach well into October. I believe we had our first blizzard in Bozeman the first week of October last year. I'm doing my best to immerse myself in Spanish culture and am loving it! Last night I went to my second salsa dance lesson. Every Tuesday night at 11:00 a club downtown gives free salsa lessons and my friends and I have taken advantage of the opportunity to have a great time for free. I guess I failed to think of how hard it would be to learn a new dance being taught in a different language. Thankfully, I have my trusty American friend Libby to explain the new vocab to me (as well as the moves which my feet are stubbornly resisting right now). If I ever do get it down, I will look forward to passing it on to friends back in the States.
While I have been having so much fun experiencing all sorts of new and exciting things, I have certainly had a fair share of difficulties and struggles. While I love the Spanish language and am working hard to improve my skills in the language, I've found myself struggling at times with the level of difficulty involved. Despite my best efforts to listen and understand others while they speak, it has been and remains to be a great challenge to understand native speakers, particularly certain individuals. I now understand the frustration and embarrassment of other foreign exchange students in the United States. It can be quite an exhausting endeavor living in a society where one does not fully understand the local dialect, and when attempting to join in the circle of communication often draws blank stares or, even worse, laughs due to your humorous attempts to communicate with them. It felt the same way last night while I clumsily tried to follow along with the salsa instructor, trying to process the different dialect, understand the words, and then send that information to my hands, hips and feet (there might be a short circuit between the hips and the feet because the feet have not been responding correctly). Honestly it can become slightly overwhelming, and I can't help but think how much I miss my home, my friends, my language, and my familiar things.
As these thoughts and emotions have been on my mind, I've had to decide how I will handle it all. And I've come to this conclusion: right now, I will enjoy the little things. That's right, the little things. Instead of beating myself up for not better understanding Spanish, I will choose to smile with my friends as I clumsily try to speak their native tongue. I will laugh at the ridiculousness of having to ask how to say "butt" in Spanish, and I will enjoy the scenery while I wander through the city streets completely and utterly lost. I will work at creating new friendships with Spanish students instead of focusing on the complete and utter lack of organization and guidance involved in signing up for classes. And I will not cease in searching for funny-sounding Spanish words like "cacahuete" (Kaw-Kaw-Way-Tay), the word for peanut (I was appalled to find out that Spain has never discovered the joy and deliciousness of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches! Neither has Australia for that matter, but that's beside the point). As I was riding my bike to campus this morning, I realized that I am officially 1/5 of the way through my adventure in Spain, and it made me realize how quickly my time will pass, and how I want to remember this period in my life. I decided that I would prefer to remember it as a kaleidascope of enjoyable and life-changing experiences. In a way it's like a beautiful tile wall, where each tile is a memorable trip to Barcelona, salsa dance lesson, or first taste of horchata, while the mortar that connects each tile is the countless "little things" that occurred throughout the semester. I've realized that those moments will make up a huge part of my experience here in Spain; its up to me what I choose to do with them.
Hasta luego my friends…

The Canadian Air Force is considering its options as it gets ready to replace its fleet of aging BAE Systems CT-155 Hawk aircraft (pictured). The replacement comes as Canada is also preparing for its acquisition of F-35 JSF aircraft.
The decision as to which trainer it will buy is still in its exploratory phases, according to a report from UPI. Several airplanes are reportedly under consideration, including BAE's Hawk 128, Alenia Aeronautica's M-346, and Korean Aerospace International's T-50 Golden Eagle.
Which ever trainer is selected, the package is expected to include simulators and a curriculum designed to help pilots transition to the F-35, though that acquisition continues to be a major political issue in Canada.
The country had originally planned to purchase 65 of the Joint Strike Fighters, but the price tag on those airplanes has climbed to more than $15 billion.
The government of Prime Minister Stephen Harper has been accused of not being transparent enough in sharing information on the F-35 program with parliament and government agencies. The JSF will be phased in replacing CF-18 Hornets on a timeline that is still fluid, but expected to be completed over the next four years.
