Nate Silver Gets His Own Memes
For your dose of Friday journo-geek fun, we have Nate Silver and more Nate Silver.
If you've been living under a rock, you may have missed that The New York Times' blogger and statistician Nate Silver accurately predicted the outcome of the election in all 50 states through impeccable data analysis. Despite criticism, much of the social web is now regarding Silver as the nerdy Chuck Norris, and memes are popping up everywhere.
For what appears to be mostly Nate Silver pick-up lines, see Tumblr for images like this:
And for a continual, hilarious flow of tweets to keep you distracted all day, open up a search for the #drunknatesilver and #natesilverfacts hashtags in a new tab (there's now also a @drunknatesilver account and a @nateDRUNKsilver account.). You will not be disappointed. Here are a few gems:
And don't listen to that groundhog his data is biased #drunknatesilver
— Drunk Nate Silver (@drunknatesilver) November 9, 2012
When Nate Silver read The Hunger Games he correctly predicted how far the odds were in each tribute's favor #natesilverfacts
— Alex Lach (@alexglach) November 9, 2012
Nate Silver wasn't born, the probability of his existence just increased #natesilverfacts
— weldon kennedy (@weldonwk) November 8, 2012
Since the election, Nate Silver's book The Signal and the Noise is now No. 2 on Amazon.

Critic & User Reviews
GamesRadar Review of Major League Baseball 2K9
The promise of next-generation sports has, in many cases, turned into a curse. Trying to meet the demands of hardcore fanatics without rendering casual players inept has proven more difficult than anyone imagined at the start of the 360/PS3 cycle. Nowhere has that paradox been more evident than in the baseball realm, which has proven to be tough as nails for all but the most dedicated to crack. The gang at 2K Sports has clearly felt your pain – and believe they have the answer with MLB 2K9.
For starters, it's never been easier to hit the ball consistently. Gone are the days when successful batting depended solely on luck; the updated Swing Stick works beautifully. It's no longer the home-run-or-strikeout dynamic of years past, as a simplified interface and forgiving engine allows everyone to step up to the plate and let 'er rip. Pitching is a little tougher to nail down (and the controls are pretty sensitive), but it's still manageable after a few warm-ups. Even baserunning – gasp! – is implemented well, as we made far fewer idiotic mistakes than normal, all without consulting a manual.
Unfortunately, fielding is a bit of an adventure, especially in the outfield. There were plenty of times we were lined up for routine catches, only to have the ball inexplicably fly over our head Canseco-style. What's more, our CPU-controlled opponents had similar issues more than once. While we appreciated the fact that outfield mishaps were an equal-opportunity affair, there's no reason so many routine plays should be botched. This is the major leagues after all – mistakes like this hardly even happen.
Scads of other problems exist throughout the game, too. There are visual hiccups aplenty, including players gliding through each other on a regular basis, herky-jerky motions between pitches, and occasional framerate drops when the ball is put in play. Heck, even Big Papi's famous batting stance suffers from a half-second stutter, symptomatic of the lack of polish that permeates the experience. Something that was supposed to be a nice touch – the day-turns-to-night effect of a midafternoon start – is rendered bizarre when postgame highlights are shown; that first-inning home run you hit when the sky was full of sunshine will be represented as if it had taken place in the dark. While none of these issues ruin the solid gameplay, they undoubtedly conspire to take 2K9 down a notch.
We've rarely been so conflicted about a baseball game, but MLB 2K9 is a paradox. It's undeniably fun and accessible, offering plenty of addictive options for hardball fans. It also suffers from too many gaffes that are impossible to ignore. As the only MLB sim option for the system, 360 owners could certainly have it worse. There's no doubt we're well on our way to playing a full 162-game campaign, but we were hoping for a more complete experience this spring.

Undisclosed Investor Group Buys TVA Natural Gas Plant
An anonymous group of investors has purchased a new natural gas plant from the Tennessee Valley Authority. The so-called "lease-purchase transaction" helps TVA raise a billion dollars without running into a congressionally-imposed debt ceiling. The accounting maneuver has raised questions about who is on the other side.

Thank you for joining me today. I should start by warning you that you may want to grab your sunglasses for this post. It's about to get bright around here! I had a ton of fun playing with the Triangle Screen Die-namics and the Grand Greetings stamp set.
I started out by cutting a number of sheets of card stock with the Triangle Screen Die-namics. I cut one sheet of card stock in each Blu Raspberry, Grape Jelly, Lemon Drop, Razzle Berry, Sour Apple. I also cut four sheets of Black Licorice. I popped the triangles out of all the black screens and I added a piece of double sided adhesive to the back of the screens. I then created a few patterns.
These are the four patterns that I created. Remember, I warned you they were bright!
For the first card, I used one of the sentiments from the Grand Greetings stamp set. I cut the Smooth White card stock to fit just inside the Triangle Screen and I added a mat of Black Licorice card stock. I stamped the Splendid Sunflower in Lemon Drop and Black Licorice ink.
I kept the inside pretty clean and simple.
For the second card, I stamped the sentiment from the Grand Greetings stamp set on a piece of Smooth White card stock that was cut with the Clearly Sentimental Label Die-namics. This die is the perfect size for the Grand Greetings sentiments. I stamped the Splendid Sunflower in Razzle Berry, Sour Apple, and Black Licorice ink. I love seeing the sunflower in different colors.
I do have two additional cards that I created with the other two patterns, I will share those with you a bit later on this week.
Don't forget to check in on the MFT Blog daily to see the new products as they are unveiled, and for your chance to win one of seven, $75.00 Gift Certificates. The Brand Spankin' New items will be available on Tuesday, August 6th at 10pm EST.

Ebby Elahi, MD, FACS
Dr. Ebby Elahi is the Director of Fifth Avenue Eye Associates and FACES™. He is Associate Clinical Professor of Ophthalmology and Global Health at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, and an attending at the Beth Israel Medical Center. A board certified surgeon, Dr. Elahi is a fellow of the American Academy of Ophthalmology, the American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, and the American College of Surgeons.
After beginning his medical education at Université Louis Pasteur in France, Dr. Elahi relocated to New York, where he completed his undergraduate studies and earned his medical degree from the Mount Sinai School of Medicine. He then completed his specialty training in Ophthalmology at the Mount Sinai-NYU Medical Center, serving as chief resident. He subsequently completed a fellowship in Oculofacial Surgery, training at Mount Sinai and the Manhattan Eye, Ear & Throat Infirmary. For several years, he served as Director of Eye Care Services at Mount Sinai Medical Center prior to assuming leadership of Fifth Avenue Eye Associates and FACES™. Dr. Elahi has also served as co-director of Mount Sinai's Ophthalmic, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Fellowship program.
Dr. Elahi's extensive clinical experience ranges from surgical and non-surgical aesthetic procedures to complex conditions involving eyelids, the orbit and the lacrimal system. His special interests lie in the correction of age-related facial, orbital and eyelid changes, advanced surgical management of eyelid and orbital malignancies, and treatment of thyroid-related eye disease. Dr. Elahi adopts an artistic approach to non-surgical aesthetic procedures including botulinum toxin, fillers, skin tightening and a variety of laser and light treatments to improve skin tone and texture. His success with thousands of procedures stems from combining safety and skill with a strong commitment to achieving a natural and customized result for each individual. He derives deep satisfaction in knowing that patients who come to him eventually depart with renewed confidence and self-esteem.
In addition to his clinical practice, Dr. Elahi is actively involved in research and education, frequently lecturing nationally and abroad. He is widely published in peer reviewed and medical journals and has contributed to several internationally-referenced textbooks. Dr. Elahi's innovative approach to orbital repair and enhancement has resulted in several U.S. patents. An inducted member of the Alpha Omega Alpha Medical Honor Society, Dr. Elahi is also the recipient of several prestigious teaching awards, including Mount Sinai's Abraham Kornzweig Award for Excellence in Residency Teaching.
For the past twenty years, Dr. Elahi has been actively involved in issues surrounding global health. While in medical school, he founded the Mount Sinai International Health Society to promote student engagement in global health. Currently he is Director of International Affairs at the Virtue Foundation, an NGO in special consultative status to the United Nations, as well as a faculty member at Mount Sinai's Department of Preventative Medicine and Global Health. In this capacity, he has led multiple medical missions to various regions around the world, including Mongolia, Liberia, Burundi, Cambodia, Tonga, and El Salvador. Dr. Elahi also serves on the steering committee of Cornell University's Avon Center for Women and Justice.
Consistently recognized as one of "America's Top Ophthalmologists," "Best Doctors," and "Super Docs," Dr Elahi has been featured in various media, including The New York Times, ABC, CBS, and NY1. In addition to his practice's onsite AAAASF certified surgical facility, Dr. Elahi also holds surgical privileges at Mount Sinai Medical Center, Beth Israel Medical Center, Elmhurst General Hospital, and the Fifth Avenue Surgery Center. Beyond his professional interests, Dr. Elahi is an avid musician and enjoys the arts, travel, and philosophy.

Horse Quotes and Sayings - Page 5
Live. Love. Ride
If you don't have that, you don't have a life.
Some say having a horse is a chore… Nope, totally wrong in every way.. Having a horse is my LIFE, LOVE and HAPPINESS!
Having an amazing life is a big luxury, owning a horse is bigger.
You have never experienced "everything" until you've rode a horse.
To ride, or not to ride? What a stupid question.
– Emma

Life's good but horses make it better.
When I see you it's like I'm in a whole other world.
Horse: loving, caring, brave and a girl's best friend.

When you get on your horse and go in the woods, it's not the horse that leads you the right way, it's God.
If you've never ridden a horse then you've never felt freedom.
A horse is as good as his rider. Not! A horse is always better than his rider, because he is pure, truthful, smart, beautiful, happy, and everything a human isn't. That's what a horse is.
Live. You say you live, not until you have a horse!
Smile and your horse will smile with you, cry and your horse will cry with you, but hurt your horse and it will suffer alone.
A girl's horse is better then any boyfriend. She knows she can tell her horse anything and knows she'll listen, knows it won't be shouted from the roof tops, or turned and twisted. She knows each day she comes home someones happy to see her. She knows she won't be judged, and most of important, she knows the true meaning of love.<3
When people say I'm obsessed with horses it's an understatement.
Some people say riding isn't a sport.
I tend to agree… It's more like a way of life.
My horse is my life. He's my greatest love, and even when he's gone, I'll never, ever stop loving him. And when I go to heaven, if my horse(s) aren't there, I will turn right back around.
– Author Unknown

When in competition, ride it like you stole him.
Cowboys may come and go but a horse is forever.
A Thoroughbred Can Race,
A Draft Horse Can Pull,
A Warmblood Can Jump,
But A Quarter Horse Can Do It All!
Don't Chase Your Dreams, Hope On And Ride It!
There Is No Secret As Close As That Between The Horse And The Rider.
A English Horse Has Grace and Elegance,
A Western Horse Has Guts And Commitment,
But My Horse Has It All!

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

stantial warnings of impending eruptions. However, they cannot predict the severity of eruptions, so it is difficult to make evacuation plans. By quantifying the magnitude of eruptions in the geological record, it will be possible to improve estimates of the likelihood and styles of future eruptions.
Groundwater contaminated by nuclear and chemical waste represents a growing hazard. Research is growing, too, but it is not clear that the full expertise of the solid-earth science community is being involved on a large enough scale.
The potential health hazards of such materials as asbestos and radon need to be evaluated in terms of levels of acceptable risk, taking into account the expertise of mineralogists and other appropriate scientists. There is a risk that legislation based on extrapolation of unreliable data could place large (and avoidable) financial burdens on the country. This is given high-priority in Priority Theme D, the environment.
There is a small but real possibility that an asteroid or comet could strike the Earth in the next century. Anything larger than the small objects that fall as meteorites could cause substantial damage, and a larger body could generate a global catastrophe.
Hazard reduction requires better understanding of where and how earthquakes occur. Progress toward predicting when they are likely to occur emerges from this understanding.
The establishment of two NSF-supported technology centers, one in earthquake research and the other in earthquake engineering research, the development of the NEHRP program, and a variety of other activities following the Loma Prieta earthquake have helped to bring seismic hazard activity to the forefront. New ideas are emerging that challenge some of the old assumptions about the very mechanisms by which earthquakes originate and propagate, particularly the role of chaotic behavior in the seismic cycle. At the same time, our experience in the probabilistic assessment of seismic risk is growing. There is a growing need for integrated approaches, including seismic networks, space geodesy, geology, neotectonics, and paleoseismology. Paleoseismology has a special need for the excavation of trenches across fault zones to characterize past seismic activity.
For Priority Theme C Table 7.12 lists two high-priority research areas: defining and characterizing areas of landslide hazard and defining and characterizing potential volcanic hazard; both are considered in Chapter 5. Landslide hazards arise from the association, in a small area, of a variety of phenomena such as steep slopes, wet conditions, and weak surficial rocks. Understandably, the integration of disparate data using geographic information systems has been found useful. The distribution and timing of ancient landslides can be an important guide to the hazard, and this information is also important for understanding aspects of past global change.
Volcano hazard research has been stimulated by the occurrence first of the Mount St. Helens explosive events, by the substantial loss of life at Nevada de la Ruiz, and the destruction resulting from Mount Pinatubo. Volcanologists are beginning to make excellent and informed use of the opportunities provided by these and other events to focus their efforts in the directions most useful to society.
Federal agencies are actively involved today in assessing these geological hazards. The USGS, the NSF (both the Division of Earth Sciences and the Directorate for Engineering), FEMA, and the National Institute of Standards and Technology have lead roles in NEHRP and represent a national commitment in this direction. Other agencies, such as DOE and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, have mission-oriented roles in seismic hazard analyses. The existence of the two NSF centers related to earthquake studies is a good indication of the importance the federal government attaches to such hazards.
National and regional seismic networks, with real-time monitoring capabilities where appropriate, are needed. Seismotectonic regionalization is not yet adequate and should be improved using seismic, strong-motion, and paleoseismic (especially trenching) techniques.
The aim of the last priority theme is to mitigate and remediate the adverse effects produced by

American Medical Careers in Flint, MI
- 0Nov 5, '08 by nursing1010Hi Everyone:
I have been a CNA for 14yrs. looking to go to American Medical Careers in Flint( which will be an 1.5 hr drive for me) for LPN Sept 2009, found out about this program on MI Works...has anyone heard of this school? Who has the best LPN program out here today....don't want to drive to Ohio....don't want to spend to much time driving because I feel it would take away from my time I can use to study.
- 1Nov 6, '08 by doughboiwifeI have a friend that graduated from there this July. She liked their program and she is working now. Only downfall is the $20,000 loan. Hope that helps
- 0Jun 17, '09 by puregrace73AMC really charges $20,000 for their LPN program?? Is that outrageous or is it just me? Not sure how much other LPN programs cost but OCC was under $3000.
- 0Jun 17, '09 by jserwin510I received my CNA from AMC. I was employed within a few weeks of completing the course and taking my boards. It is really expensive for the LPN program and I don't think they have a payment plan. Getting in is pretty much easy if you can come up with the money. Get a hold of the school and set up a meeting. I almost decided to do the LPN there but changed my mind. I know that Michigan works will give up to $10,000 for education, usually $5,000/year. Since the LPN there is only one year I think there is a waiver you can apply for to get all the funds for the one year. Hope this helps.
- 0Jun 18, '09 by want2beanurse2Where do you live? My friend and I called the Detroit location about a month ago and a few days later the phone was disconnected. The Flint campus said Detroit location had closed because they were in the process of obtaining a bigger and better building. Maybe it's open now? Would that be closer than an hour and a half drive? There is always Everest Institute. Their cost is about $28,000 they accept NWLB along with Financial Aid and loans and I do believe they work out a payment plan. They accept students Sept, Jan and May of each year.
- 0Jun 18, '09 by tracel23_30Latoya's Health Education Center in Saginaw has classes for CNA, LPN, Phlebotomy, and EKG. The CNA classes are $900 and the LPN are $14,000.
- 0Jun 18, '09 by jserwin510I attended the Flint campus at the Great Lakes Tech. Center
- 0Jun 19, '09 by sunflower777hi there!....that's an awful large amount of money for the program...we have everest where i live and if its the last lpn school on earth, i can't go to a school that is 1/2 my salary..maybe consider other school...for that money..you can get your lpn, rn, then bsn for that amount...good luck to you!..i'm on a hunt too for a good lpn school
- 1Jun 21, '09 by puregrace73I agree with Sunflower777. How can a program that isn't even accredited get away with charging so much more than the colleges?? I don't qualify for the NWLB so those are some very expensive student loans to take on.
- 0Aug 19, '09 by shanec98The LPN program at AMC is only avalible at the Flint campus. I just finished the LPN program at this school, and will be taking the NCLEX shortly. We had great instructors and clinical sites. I am not sure if these are changing for the 2009/2010 school year. It is $20,000. You should be able to get $10,000 or more from NWLB, however it seemed to be VERY hard to get, and takes a long time. If this is how you plan on getting some of your $ you better get started on this right away. It is well worth the money because you can get a GREAT paying job as soon as you finish. You can also move right into an LPN to RN online program as well. Hope this helps, GOOD LUCK!

As a 20-year-old, Desjardins played major junior hockey with the Toronto Marlboros, playing in 53 games. He posted an impressive 32-4-7 record with a 3.81 goals against average.
The following year, Desjardins was tending goal for the Houston Apollos of the CPHL in 1965-66, playing in 19 games. He shared the netminding duties with veteran Marv Edwards. Both were outstanding goaltenders, but in a six-team NHL, there were not many jobs for goaltenders. He played one more year in Houston, getting the start in 36 games.
For the 1967-68 season, Desjardins had hoped of landing an NHL job as the league immediately doubled in size to 12 teams with expansion. However, he was overlooked once again. So, Desjardins played with the Cleveland Barons of the AHL, and was clearly one of the major stars of the league. He played in 66 games, proving his workhorse abilities.
In 1968-69, he landed the starting job with the Los Angeles Kings, one of the expansion teams from the previous year. Desjardins was thrown right into the fire, getting the start in 60 games. On one of the worst NHL clubs that year, Desjardins again proved to be a bright spot, keeping the Kings competitive in many games; in fact, he recorded four shutouts.
Desjardins followed up his rookie season with a 43-game performance in 1969-70 and once again was the reason the Kings managed any semblance of respectability. At 26, just as things seemed to be moving along nicely in his career, the Kings obtained Rogatien Vachon in a trade with the Montreal Canadiens. Vachon immediately took over the role as starting goalie, relegating Desjardins to backup. Late in the season the Kings traded Desjardins to the Chicago Blackhawks, but his playing time would not increase appreciably there either, with the presence of all-star goalie Tony Esposito. Nonetheless, Desjardins played in 22 games during the 1970-71 season, going 12-6-3 with a 2.41 goals against average.
In 1972-73, he was picked up by the expansion New York Islanders in the dispersal draft. That year he backstopped 44 games for Long Island, but as one would imagine with an expansion team, he lost more often than he won. The following year was also tough on the fledgling team, although their defensive game was aided tremendously with the drafting of a young defenseman named Denis Potvin. Desjardins started 36 games, going 9-17-6.
Although the club was making strides at improvement, it was difficult for a veteran netminder like Desjardins, so he opted to try his hand in the WHA, signing with the Michigan Stags for the 1974-75 season. But, the WHA turned out to be every bit as difficult as the NHL. In 41 WHA games, Desjardins was 9-28-1 with a 4.26 goals against average. Late that same year, he returned to the NHL, joining the Buffalo Sabres. Sabres' GM Punch Implach took advantage of a clause in Desjardins' contract with the Stags, which said he could leave the team if they moved - which they did - to Baltimore. In nine regular-season games with Buffalo that season, Desjardins went 6-2-1, with a 2.78 goals against average before leading them all the way to the Stanley Cup finals, where they lost in six games to the Philadelphia Flyers.
Over the next two seasons, Desjardins was the number-one backstop in Buffalo, playing in 55 and 49 games, respectively. Early in the 1976-77 season, Desjardins' hockey career came to an abrupt end, when a puck struck him the eye in a game against the Boston Bruins

From the Pennsylvania Game Commission
-- During the 2010 elk season, 41 of the 51 licensed elk hunters were successful, and one hunter's elk is a possible new state record typical. Of the elk taken, 18 were antlered and 23 were antlerless.
The heaviest antlered elk was taken by John A. Murray Jr. of Grindstone, Fayette County. He took a 880-pound estimated live weight, 7 by 7 elk Nov. 1 in Benezette Township, Elk County.
Hunters rounding out the top five heaviest antlered elk harvested, were Charles H. Stowman, of Westover, Clearfield County, with an 868-pound, 8 by 7 Nov. 3 in Grove Township, Cameron County; Domenic V. Aversa Sr. of Woolwich, N.J., with an 867-pound, 7 by 7 on Nov. 1 in Jay Township, Elk County; Richard R. Lundgren of Kittanning, Armstrong County, with a 852-pound, 8 by 9 on Nov. 1 in Jay Township, Elk County; and James F. Wolfe, of Mercersburg, Adams County, who took an 823-pound, 7 by 7 on Nov. 1, in Covington Township, Clearfield County. All weights were estimated live weights.
Antlers from Aversa's elk green scored at 389 and 7/8 Boone & Crockett. If the score holds after the 60-day drying time, it will be a new record for a Pennsylvania state typical elk taken with a firearm. The current record is held by John A. Polenski of Meyersdale, Somerset County, who took a 6 by 7 antlered elk that scored 370 in 2009.
The heaviest antlerless elk was taken by Mark E. Gowarty of Johnstown, Cambria County, who harvested a 582-pound estimated live weight antlerless elk Nov. 2 in Benezette Township, Elk County.
Those hunters rounding out the top five heaviest (all estimated live weights) antlerless elk harvested were Nicholas J. Draghi of Elmira, N.Y., who took a 575-pound antlerless elk Nov. 2 in West Keating Township, Clinton County; George R. Shupe of Scottdale in Westmoreland County, who took a 571-pound antlerless elk Nov. 1 in Jay Township, Elk County; Russell P. Krut of Beaver Falls, Beaver County, who took a 555-pound antlerless elk Nov. 3 in West Keating Township, Clinton County, and Timothy J. Conners of Monroeville in Allegheny County who took a 549-pound antlerless elk Nov. 4 in West Keating Township, Clinton County.
Robert Ehle of Orefield in Lehigh County who was the successful bidder for the Elk Conservation Tag, also harvested an antlered elk. He took a 5 by 6 Oct. 7 in Shippen Township, Cameron County. Ehle purchased the Conservation Elk Tag during the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation national conference in 2010 and was able to hunt from Sept. 1 to Nov. 6.

Streptococcal pneumonia (formerly called pneumococcal pneumonia) is an infection of the lungs. It is a common type of bacterial pneumonia.
Streptococcal pneumonia can be passed from person to person through mucus and saliva, like the common cold. Fortunately it is not usually as contagious as colds.
Streptococcal pneumonia is caused by bacteria called Streptococcus pneumoniae or pneumococcal bacteria. It often happens after an upper respiratory tract infection, such as a cold or the flu.
The symptoms include:
Your healthcare provider will review your symptoms and examine you. Your provider will check for fever and fast breathing. He or she will also listen to your lungs.
You may have the following tests, which help detect pneumonia. They also help your provider know what medicine you need:
In many cases, streptococcal pneumonia can be treated with antibiotics at home. Your healthcare provider may prescribe medicine you can take by mouth at home. Or your provider may arrange for you to have intravenous (IV) medicine at home or in the emergency room.
You may need to stay in the hospital if:
If you are hospitalized, in addition to your antibiotics:
Usually you will begin to feel better after 2 to 3 days of antibiotics. If you are an otherwise healthy person, you should feel close to normal after a week or so. If you are over 60 years old or have other medical problems, it may take longer to feel normal.

During the Nvidia GPU Technology Conference 2010 keynote, Jen-Hsun Huang welcomed Ken Pimentel from AutoDesk and Michael Kaplan from Mental Images on stage to demonstrate the power of GPU-accelerated photorealistic rendering. The new CUDA-acceleration capabilities in 3DS Max enable developers to leverage the power of Mental Ray to raytrace photorealistic scenes that were not previously possible on CPU-driver supercomputers due to a lack of adequate floating point processing power.
The company hosts 32 Fermi processors in a cloud-based server that are simultaneously working on the same image. Rendering simulations can be done remotely in realtime, whereas in the past they had to be pre-rendered by massive supercomputer clusters. "Simulating reality is a very computationally intense problem, and the only solution to it in the past was to figure out ways to simplify the process to maximize the simulation realism," said Pimentel. "Here, we are physically simulating every photon as it passes through the scene. We aren't interpolating."
Jen-Hsun added that the 3DS Max engineers want to move towards computational rendering techniques. "The breakthrough is that we're able to simulate light physically by tracing every photon in the scene, and in order to do that you have to model the interaction of light coming through materials like glass, bouncing off of things, semi-gloss materials, and to do this requires a massive amount of floating-point computation." Said Kaplan. "You have to sample all sorts of multidimensional space to make this work. Doing the simulations in the past was not practical, because there was not enough floating point processing power in CPU-driven supercomputers." Here is an image of the very first photorealistic realtime render streaming from a cloud-based server running 32 Fermi GPUs.

This project involved overlaying approximately 5,000 tonnes of asphalt concrete pavement within Red Deer County. A section of the overlays was undertaken in the busy Gasoline Alley industrial subdivision area near the city of Red Deer. The County of Red Deer required the expertise to identify areas that required deep strengthening within their road network. The areas of importance were the industrial subdivisions. The heavy truck traffic that is generated shortens the life of a roadway if it was not designed for the heavy truck traffic.

- The Old Weigh Scale; Enterprise
Jasper Place LibraryMarket: Arts & Culture
After 25 years since its last major renovation, the Jasper Place Library in Edmonton, Alberta was in need of a fresh new look. The hard facade of faded red and brown bricks had long outgrown this west-end community that has been working so hard to revitalize itself, but still maintain its old-style charm and history.
Kugluktuk Water Systems UpgradeMarket: Water
The Hamlet of Kugluktuk draws its water from the Coppermine River about 2.5 km upstream from the Coronation Gulf. Numerous issues have been reported with the water system over the years including chronic excessive turbidity, seasonal salt water intrusion, sand and silt build-up around the intake pipe, the need for a new intake pump house (instability of the riverbank lead to damage of the intake pump house and pipe), and sufficient water storage. Many of these issues are interrelated (i.e., intake sedimentation affecting water quality).
Meadows Community Recreation Centre and LibraryMarket: Sports & Recreation
Meadows Community Recreation Centre and Meadows Library is a 20,900-square-metre facility which includes an aquatic complex, twin-sheet ice arena, a gymnasium, a two-level fitness area with an indoor track, community multipurpose rooms, and a 1400-square-metre branch library for the Edmonton Public Library.

The building is targeting LEED® Silver certification as mandated by the City of Edmonton.
P3 SchoolsMarket: Education
The recent population explosion in Alberta has necessitated rapid expansion of local infrastructure. Schools to support the demographic bulge promised by a young community are absolutely necessary to the future success of the province. In order to plan ahead and ensure Alberta's children are given every opportunity to excel, 18 new schools were constructed in the province's two most populous cities, Edmonton and Calgary.
Ribstone RoadMarket: Transportation
Williams Engineering Canada was retained to provide preliminary engineering, detailed design, tendering services, construction management services, and post construction services for the grading improvements of Ribstone Road (approximately 15 km in length).

Riverbend Golf Course Swale ErosionMarket: Transportation
The drainage swale collects storm water runoff from the roadway and adjacent escarpments and discharges at the base of the hill into a small creek. A site investigation and investigative report concluded that approximately 400 m of the drainage swale, commencing at the top of the hill, consisted of a failing geo-textile liner and washed aggregate conglomerate.
Civil engineering services included providing an engineering report that suggested alternative solutions related to the drainage swale erosion:

From all reports, Emma Foreman's mother does not like taxidermy. But having to stare at the glass eyes of a mounted buck is a small price to pay for the smile on her 11-year-old daughter's cherubic face.
She probably doesn't want to think about what'll happen if Emma's little sister or brother happen to shoot deer as big as the one Emma smoked on Sept. 17, 2011.
Had Gerrit Foreman not just begun a two-day shift at the Clive Fire Department nearly 40 miles from their home in Truro, Iowa, he would've taken his daughter hunting on opening day of youth season. But it fell to Uncle BJ to don his bright orange chauffeur's cap.
He took her to the same Warren County treestand where Emma had taken two bucks in seasons past. They arrived at the edge of the hay field to discover the farmer had burned some brush beside the stand; the pile was still smoldering. BJ thought sitting there would be a waste of time, but Emma wanted to climb into the stand anyway.
Gerrit received the day's first text message and photo a short while later.
"It was a picture of Emma with a kitten in her lap," he said, "and the text message said, 'Emma wants to know if she can take this home with her.'"
The cat had literally jumped onto BJ's shoulder after he and his niece climbed into the stand.
"No," Gerrit answered.
Later, while BJ was pulling the cat from his shoulder, he looked up and saw a couple of bucks heading their way. One was a dandy, so he passed his niece the muzzleloader. She'd already declined a chance at a doe.
The bucks popped out of the opposite timber at 80 yards and headed straight for them. The big one stopped halfway across and stared at the duo in the tree, but it didn't have time to process the danger. BJ had already cocked the muzzleloader, and Emma simply pretended she was shooting at a milk jug.
Gerrit received two more messages from his brother before he had to answer a fire call. The first announced that Emma had shot a buck in the 150s; the second, 20 minutes later and after they'd found the deer, said it was more likely in the 180s.
BJ had underestimated the antlers, however. The 15-pointer's BTR composite score is 200 5/8 inches.
Dates to Remember
March 16-18: If you're interested in becoming a Buckmasters scorer, the next measuring class will be held during Circle M Auctions' 11th Annual Whitetail Classic Sport Show and Antler Auction in Dubuque, Iowa's Grand River Center. You'll have to pre-register for the class. This rare opportunity aside, the show attracts truckloads of antlers and serious collectors.

Boeing union case tests vulnerable Democrats
A federal lawsuit against Boeing for alleged union-busting has become more than a conservative crusade; it's an uncomfortable question for vulnerable Democrats in right-to-work states.
Haley, elected last fall with strong tea party backing, is considered a powerful endorsement for presidential aspirants, especially given the fact that hers is an early primary state. And she has challenged candidates in her party to "step up" in the Boeing fight.
While the NLRB is an independent agency, the president does appoint its five board members. For the most part, the White House has been silent on the lawsuit, saying the board operates independently.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has staunchly defended NLRB's action, calling GOP attacks on the agency "disgraceful and dangerous." And Democrats who represent heavily unionized states have voiced similar support.

Because in F1 the first person you have to beat is your team-mate...
Red Bull Racing
Race: Vettel
Season: Sebastian Vettel 14 - Mark Webber 1
Mark Webber got the closest he'd come to upsetting the Red Bull formbook since that fateful day in Malaysia when his team-mate decided to play Toad of Toad Hall. Shan't said Toad. If Lewis Hamilton hadn't had his puncture he might have been the perfect buffer between Webber and Vettel, but Mark moved towards him , he moved towards Seb and that was that. What was most amazing was how Vettel got his tyres to last in the middle stint, despite locking up all over the place
Race: Button
Season: Jenson Button 12 - Sergio Perez 3
Button edged this one but once again it was very tight between the McLaren drivers, so tight that you can't imagine Perez going anywhere else next year. If they brought anyone else in, it's unlikely to be for more than a one-year-contract as they'd want to keep a seat free for 2015 - their first year with Honda. Perez was noticeably good at getting out of the way when the leaders came to lap him - unlike some - so he is paying attention to criticism.
Race: Hamilton
Season: Lewis Hamilton 10 - Nico Rosberg 5
All we can go on is qualifying and a few hundred metres, and Lewis Hamilton qualified as the best of the non RBR9 cars and got a flyer of the start. It wasn't his fault he got nudged by Vettel. In the race Rosberg proved yet again that he struggles to get past slightly slower cars, and this is likely to be his best year against Hamilton. Lewis only became a Mercedes driver long after this car had been devised, next year they are likely to get a chassis and set-up that is far more oriented towards his preferences.
Ross Brawn was interesting before the race in a great BBC interview that few picked up on, when he said that Mercedes "needed a senior point of reference." The strong implication was that he'd stay as the boss, but he wasn't interested in being anything else. At race weekends where people often don't say directly what they mean, this was the big man being very straightforward.
Race: Alonso
Season: Fernando Alonso 13 - Felipe Massa 2
Fernando had to prove that he was faster than Felipe and he duly did. We predicted that Luca Montezemolo would be on the dog and bone shortly after the race, but Stefano Domenicali backed up Felipe Massa. They may both be skating on thin ice. And at least the Ferrari duo look like beating McLaren's 64-race points-scoring streak. Fernando hasn't had a (race ending) mechanical failure since 2010.
Race: Grosjean
Season: Kimi Raikkonen 10 - Romain Grosjean 5
Raikkonen left too much to do on Sunday, but as usual, what a ride for his onboard viewers. Kimi's haul of 'Overtaking Move of the Race' victories is by far the largest total (already) since we started TMW. Grosjean qualified brilliantly, got a great start and was smoother than Vettel - you can easily see him battling for podiums in the four remaining races.
Force India
Race: DiResta
Season: Paul Di Resta 8 - Adrian Sutil 7
Paul DiResta managed to shrug off his run of mistakes on what is an unforgiving circuit, but Force India's drop in performance looks irretrievable now. Sutil looks to be fading out of F1.
Race: Hulkenberg
Season: Nico Hulkenberg 14 - Esteban Gutierrez 1
Gutierrez may not have beaten his much-fancied chubby companero but he's showing the team that there is promise for 2014. Nico needs to keep the gap to Esteban as big as he can because as it narrows, so his stock goes down. Though despite his gross tonnage of 74kg he looks as though he's already got a seat at Lotus provided the Infinity/Quantum deal goes ahead.
Race: Bottas
Season: Maldonado 10 - Bottas 5
Pastor Maldonado was keen to recreate the Ayrton Senna vs Alain Prost moment at the final chicane on the last lap, for no real reason other than bragging rights. Bottas was keen that both cars shouldn't be damaged for the sake of a single place and played the grown-up and got out of the way.
Torro Rosso
Race: Vergne
Season: Daniel Ricciardo 8 - Jean-Eric Vergne 7
Not the most stellar of weekends for either Ricciardo or Vergne. Daniel's misjudged pass at 130R ended in a trip down pitlane. But you've got to admire him for trying rather than taking the Rosberg route. Ultimately his strategy didn't work and he had to give best to Jean-Eric Vergne, whose qualifying was ended in Bon Jovi style just after the hairpin.
Race: Chilton
Season: Jules Bianchi 14 - Max Chilton 1
Finally, finally Max breaks his TMW duck at what is THE racing driver's circuit. Max managed to keep his Marussia out of the barriers, unlike his team-mate who seemed to be a regular visitor. He outqualified him and kept his car in one piece to continue his strong finishing record
Race: Pic
Season: Giedo van der Garde 5 - Charles Pic 10
Pic again.
The Kimi is Disappointed File: "Since we changed the tyres it's not so good. I don't like the front tyres."

Media Watch
Suzi Perry: It's been eleven years since we haven't had a Japanese driver on the grid for the Japanese Grand Prix...twelve in fact."
Suzi Perry: "Tom Clarkson and Lee McKenzie are in the pitlane and David Coulthard and Ben Anderson are your commentators..."
- which was a surprise to both Gary Anderson and Ben Edwards.
The funniest moment of all came after the race when they re-ran the footage of Jenson Button catching Felipe Massa at the end of Lap 51 and passing him as they crossed the line on Lap 52 - the timing screens had their difference as 0.00 after Jenson passed Felipe under DRS. Whoever was running the tape then froze it at that point, with another three laps to go, but that was where Suzi thought the race had finished.
Suzi Perry: "You don't get much closer than on the line!" she exhaled breathlessly.
