-A Time to Remember. A Time to prepare-
SEATTLE - September is National Preparedness Month, and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has joined with more than 6,000 federal, tribal, state and local coalition members from across the country to encourage Americans to prepare their homes, businesses, schools and communities for disasters of all kinds. According to FEMA Regional Administrator Ken Murphy, this year marks the eighth annual observance of National Preparedness Month, and the ten year anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
"This year's National Preparedness Month theme is: A Time to Remember. A Time to Prepare," said Murphy. "We focus on taking simple, but potentially life-saving steps to enhance preparedness, including: Get an Emergency Supply Kit; Make a Family Emergency Plan; Be Informed about the different types of emergencies; and Get Involved in your community's preparedness efforts."
"Preparing for disasters means that we must plan for the Whole Community, including people of different ages and those with various access and functional needs," continued Murphy. "It means planning for children - and not just thinking of them as small adults. It means planning for the elderly, and planning for families without access to personal transportation. Whole Community preparedness means more than just planning for what's easy - we have to plan for what's real."
National Preparedness Month is sponsored by the Ready Campaign in partnership with Citizen Corps and the Advertising Council. For more information on National Preparedness Month activities, and how to become a coalition member, visit Ready.gov, http://www.fema.gov, or CitizenCorps.gov.

FEMA's mission is to support our citizens and first responders to ensure that as a nation we work together to build, sustain, and improve our capability to prepare for, protect against, respond to, recover from, and mitigate all hazards.

If it snows here we'll all die. The caribbean was not made for snow.
been a long time sense we had snow this time of year but we have a kajor storm due here glad we have back up power
I live in Minnesota and in a typical winter we'll get 5-7 feet of snow and temperatures in the minus 20-30 degree range. Sometimes much lower
Most of the time no.
Be thankful for that. It's cool and exciting at the beginning of winter. Once you've had a few storms under your belt, you get sick of it and can't wait until spring.
yeah and i hate it,wish i had a job in a sunny warm place all year
easyier to cool off then warm up i used to love winter when i was a kid but meh not so much fun anymore
It snows for a few hours once every few years.
Big ol' state of Texas.

The Internet is awash with websites which tempt you to part with your money. Some, of course, are legitimate and are merely using persuasion techniques to sell you their wares. Others are downright immoral, suggesting you'll become a millionaire overnight if only you were to part with some of your cash. Some, of course, are actually fraudulent, breaking the law but hiding behind a myriad of proxies so no-one can really get to the perpetrators.
Spotting the frauds is not always easy – that is how phishing campaigns work; you think you are on your bank's website, for instance, but in reality you are handing over your login details to a sophisticated copy.
There is plenty of advice around – much produced by the banks themselves – on how to spot fraudulent sites. There is also a wide array of security software you can get to check that websites are above board and not taking part in any unethical practices. Yet, in spite of all the advice and protection, people are still falling victim to cranky sites which over promise and under deliver.
Now, new research suggests a simple way many people can avoid being taken in by dubious websites. According to the researchers at UCLA, the part of our brain which helps us spot fraud tends to stop working well as we get older. This could explain why, for instance, that elderly people fall victim to doorstep fraud more than younger people – and also why the fraudsters target the older age group.
For online users it means that as you get older you should take a bit more time to think about the offers being made on the websites you visit. Younger people will be much more able to spot the scammers and the fraudsters. But older generations will find that more troubling. The simple answer – as with so many other things online – is to take it more slowly. You don't have to respond "this second" no matter what the website will suggest to you.
When you visit websites making offers to sell you something, just think about your age. If you are older than you were last year, take a bit more time to make your decision…!

The Valley Hospital's Blumenthal Cancer Center has established The Institute for Brain and Spine Radiosurgery for patients with malignant and benign conditions of the brain and spinal cord. The Institute is currently using the Novalis Brain Lab radiosurgery system to treat brain metastases and TomoTherapy HiArt system to treat spine lesions. Malignant and benign diseases of the brain are treated at our Gamma Knife Center.
Our team includes neurologists, neurosurgeons, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, pathologists, neuro-radiologists, a neuro-psychologist, and a highly skilled nursing team.
The Blumenthal Cancer Center's Neuro-Oncology Disease Management Team and The Institute for Brain and Spine Radiosurgery are led by Anthony D'Ambrosio, M.D.
Dr. D'Ambrosio, who has completed a fellowship in skull base tumors, guides his diverse team to treat brain cancer and neurological conditions at Valley's Gamma Knife Center. Despite its name, this radiosurgery technique is noninvasive. It focuses specifically on diseased areas to preserve the rest of the brain's function. With the Gamma Knife®, patients can leave the center the day they are treated. The Gamma Knife is also useful for benign diseases, such as acoustic neuromas and trigeminal neuralgia.
Valley was the first hospital in New Jersey to acquire a CereTom mobile CT scanner. Initially used at the bedside of critically ill patients, doctors discovered added convenience and patient benefit by also using it in operating rooms.
Valley's neurosurgeons use neuro-navigation technology during brain tumor resections to pinpoint the cancer's exact location. Brain tumor patients are managed by a team that includes neurologists, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, pathologists, neuro-radiologists, and skilled nurses, including a nurse navigator.

Does Writer Pro sync with iA Writer?
This comment was split from the discussion: Having what I wrote on Mac show up on iPhone via iCloud.
Does Writer Pro sync with Writer? I assume it does but don't see it stated anywhere?
Hello Lewis,
Thank you for your question. I'm sorry this is currently not explicitly mentioned anywhere yet — it's on my list of things to do. For business reasons we've released Writer Pro under a new developer account: we're one company incorporated in Switzerland and Japan, and it made sense for Writer Pro to be handled via the Swiss entity (there were also some technical reasons too, based around Writer Pro for iPad and iPhone's search feature). Because of how iCloud works, this means the iCloud document stores of the two apps can not be shared. However, it's possible to migrate your files in Mac OS X by opening both apps' Open dialogs and copying or moving documents directly, or migrate all files from iA Writer to Writer Pro via the Migrate button in iA Writer for iPad and iPhone v1.9.1's file list view.
I hope that helps! Please let me know if there's anything else I can assist with…
Kind regards,
Oli Studholme
I think it's possible for Writer and Writer Pro to sync documents when Writer Pro supports Dropbox. Am I right?
I'm interested in purchasing Writer Pro for Mac If the app can sync with Writer. I'd like to take a memo with Writer on mobile devises.
Hello Yuko,
Thank you for your question, and my apologies for not mentioning this explicitly in my reply above. Currently iA Writer and Writer Pro use different iCloud containers, so they can't see each other's files via iCloud sync. However, Writer Pro for Mac can save documents to Dropbox, and you can then access these documents in Dropbox in iA Writer. We intend to add Dropbox sync to Writer Pro for iPad and iPhone in a future release.
I hope that helps!
Kind regards,
Oli Studholme
PS It's also possible to symlink your Writer Pro iCloud container into Dropbox, which would allow you to use the default save locations in Writer Pro for Mac, but still see these files in Dropbox automatically. This is a little technical and not officially supported, but if you'd like more information on doing this please let me know.
I would be interested in getting the details for syncing via a symlink. Pretty disappointed the two programs' (regular and pro) files don't sync with each other automatically.
Figured this out for anyone wanting to sync iaWriter on their Mac with Writer Pro on their iOS Device (iPad for me).
The iOS app seemed to have problems with symlinks, but the OSX app handles them nicely. So....
Open terminal in OSX and cd to the iCloud pwd:
cd ~/Library/Mobile\ Documents/
Next make backups of both the Writer-Pro and informationtechs-writer (which is iaWriter) directories. I saved copies of mine to Documents on my local hdd. These directories will have some numbers in front of them for you, but I'm going to abbreviate them as [iaWriter_dir] and [Writer-Pro_dir] for the remainder of this explanation.
Next copy all of the files in [iaWriter_dir]/Documents/ to [Writer-Pro_dir]/Documents/Write/
* I put them in Write because there are several new directories (Write, Read, Edit, and Note) in Writer Pro, but iaWriter only has Documents
Preserve the original iaWriter directory by first:
mkdir iaWriter_orig
And then mv Documents into the new iaWriter_orig directory:
mv [iawriter-dir]/Documents/ [iawriter-dir]_orig/
Now make a symlink to the [Writer-Pro_dir]/Write/ directories for iaWriter.
ln -s [Writer-pro_dir]/Documents/Write [iaWriter_dir]/Documents
Fire up iaWriter on your mac and open a file. Choose Open --> iCloud --> iaWriter_dir/Documents/[File].md
Make some changes in it and it'll show up changed on your iOS Writer Pro and vice-versa.
Good luck to anyone else who was wanting to sync between these two apps like me.

"I luckily got a wildcard to compete at the finals in Verbier this year and was super stoked! So many spectators turned up for the event and it was interesting to see so many juniors there, arriving for the junior competition the day after our event.
The butterflies started to kick in when I arrived to view the face, not because I was excited – but because the conditions on the face didn't look as good as I thought it would be. I decided on my line thinking that was where the best snow would be, but as soon as I dropped into the main couloir of my run the snow quality was hard to deal with – throwing me off my line and my cliff drops and having a crash anyway!
All the other snowboarder girls had the same difficulty with their lines and the snow conditions (putting me in 3rd place), except of course for the amazing Maria DeBari who had an awesome line, deservingly winning the competition and the overall World Champ title!! So stoked for her!
Also, fellow Roxy team rider Margot Rozies had an amazing run going big. She also showed trouble with the snow conditions but made it to 2nd place and 2nd overall in the world rankings! Awesome also considering it is her rookie year!! It was definitely cool to have the two of us Roxy riders on the podium at Verbier!!!"

And is headed for the Governor's desk! The creeps protesting it have 90 days to collect 120,000 legitimate signatures to get it on the November ballot. They'll only collect in certain churches in our area - most signatures will be in the 'conservative enclaves' of the state. Honestly, I hope they can't do it...but they are going to get a lot of financial aid from out-of-state sources. ;p~~~~

RN with associate degree want to dp travel nursing in Australia
- 0Jun 21, '12 by JALAWS1493I am an Rn with an Associate degree (two years) in nursing. I have one year of med-surg/ orthopedic experience. I would like to go to Australia and practive nursing there for a while. Is a bachelors degree required and where should I start? How do I get sponsored etc.
- 0Jun 22, '12 by ceridwyn GuideQuote from JALAWS1493Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency - Home for assessment and apply to be RN as for sponsorship once an RN you can apply to a hospital for a sponsorship of a long term business visa.I am an Rn with an Associate degree (two years) in nursing. I have one year of med-surg/ orthopedic experience. I would like to go to Australia and practive nursing there for a while. Is a bachelors degree required and where should I start? How do I get sponsored etc.
Depending on your age you can apply for working holiday visa for 2 years. If a US born.
I would act now, Australia seems to be the only country that is still offering overseas nurses work. It seems NSW is the only state that hospitals are still employing overseas nurses the other states, nursing homes still like to employ overseas nurses with the business visa as they pay the least.
It would seem AHPRA are registering nurses with the ADN that have experience.
- 0Jul 13, '12 by MaxwellEdisonI am fairly certain it is possible. I have turned in my packet and the last sheet of paper (one that clarified an issue---they are very nitpicky) arrived yesterday at AHPRA. Just waiting on a response. I have an AD and I have spoken with AHPRA (I got a calling card) and they didnt seem to have a problem with my AD. Experience is a must--I have 4 years of it in Med Surg. I chose Oz because the UK wont accept ADNs and I refuse to go back to school right now. I havent applied for a VISA because if it turns out I have wasted 500 bux through the application I dont want to make it 800 bucks in total.
- 0Aug 16, '12 by kellieskornerADN is more education than a bachelor degree here in Australia so yes you will get licensed as a RN
- 0Sep 9, '12 by esperanzaRN14Hello Im currently looking into doing travel nursing in Australia. Im just confused with their educational requirements with applying through AHPRA to gain registration. I did email them an enquiry about whether I would qualify and they just forwarded me a link to register and apply. They gave me no answers to my questions. I also only have an associates degree, but 4 years experience in critical care at a hospital in southern california. Just was curious to know if you have heard back from them in regards to you submitting an application with them. i would greatly appreciate an advise or feedback on how your process is going. thanks )
- 0Sep 9, '12 by kellieskornerYou should have no problem getting licensed.all RN's in Australia hold bachelor degrees but you will get licensed without any problem.Australia lets ADN get licensed in australia.I am a dual citizen so not sure about immigration side of things
- 0Sep 9, '12 by esperanzaRN14thank you for responding back! i really do hope i dont have any problems with registering. would i have to take their licensing exam as well or does registering with ahpra cover all that? also do recruiting/travel agency tend to cover living expenses over there just like the ones do in usa. just curious to know how all that works over there. thanks again!
- 1Sep 9, '12 by kellieskornerMight want to check with medi serve a good travel agency.No NCLEX or tests required here for licensure.some people have had to sit islets???english test even though you are from USA they might make you take it but at least you can prove all your schooling is in English.
- 1Sep 20, '12 by esperanzaRN14thanks for the positive feedback kellieskorner and for letting me know about medi serve. i really appreciate it!
- 1Aug 7, '13 by ContikiRnThanks for the info Kellie. I'm from Virginia and I am considering travels to Australia to work.

Researchers from Georgia Tech, the University of Tokyo and Microsoft Research have developed a novel method to rapidly and cheaply make electrical circuits by printing them with commodity inkjet printers and off-the-shelf materials. For about $300 in equipment costs, anyone can produce working electrical circuits in the 60 seconds it takes to print them.
The technique, called instant inkjet circuits, allows the printing of arbitrary-shaped conductors onto rigid or flexible materials and could advance the prototyping skills of non-technical enthusiasts and novice hackers.Read More

Georgia Tech researchers have developed a computational model that can predict video game players' in-game performance and provide a corresponding challenge they can beat, leading to quicker mastery of new skills. The researchers used a method called collaborative filtering, a popular technique employed by Netflix and Amazon in product ratings and recommendations. While Netflix recommends movies, the gaming model recommends the next challenge for players, adjusting game difficulty by computationally forecasting in-game performance.Read More

How the Hornbuckles overcame heroin

It's tough to pin down a dominant sound or overarching musical theme on Flight or Fight, the new full-length release from Achille Lauro. The feel of the album's nine tracks ranges from breezy to meditative, and the sound veers from the danceable pop of "Lightning" to the amorphous experimentation of "Goddess an Island." That ambulant feel is no accident. Stitched together partly from past single releases, the album is a mix of old and new, a combination of tried-and-true material and rawer, less-refined output. The approach serves as a double-edged sword: The record's highlights shine bright, but rougher selections like "Goddess" can feel underdeveloped and rushed. Nonetheless, the album boasts plenty of great moments. Grounded in the powerful rhythm section of Ben Mossman and Jon Evans and buoyed by the earnest vocals of Matt Close and the bright guitar work of Luke Mossman, the record seeks to push the envelope and map out new musical territory. For the most part, it succeeds.

I dont really know anything about the lore but i'd read it. I'm sure I wouldnt be the only one.

Not a bad idea
Prior to the disappearing journal of justice and league judgements I would've said pretty good since the lore department was doing a super job at selling the place as a living world.
I'd pay for stories of EZ explorations, tryn coming of age on how he became unkillable for 6 seconds, battles between kayle and Morgana.
I believe this would fall under riots trade mark soon.

Pale straw-green; rich fruit salad and cream style; no shortage of flavour, ready now. Trophy Best '13 Verdelho, Swan Valley Wine Show '13.
Really exciting wine...the back story on this is that while in college I once found a few closeout cases of Swan Valley Verdelho in a random rundown corner shop liquor store...long story short, the stuff was delicious and it became our house wine for as long as the supply lasted! While traveling in Swan Valley some years later I was excited to taste this lovely bottle from Sittella and be transported back to my first discovery of Verdelho from Swan Valley. The region has a long history of producing the varietal but it was originally used for fortified wines like the ones of its ancestral home the island of Madeira. The multiple award winning 2013 Sittella Verdelho is dry, fresh and combines citrus flavors with richer, fleshier stone fruits and even some lush tropical notes. The wine is soft and generous in texture with gentle but pleasant acidity keeping it focused and long on the palate. Really worth checking out! Another stellar wine from Colby at Sittella.

Is there a relationship between political orientation and cognitive ability? A test of three hypotheses in two studies
Treść / Zawartość
Warianty tytułu
Języki publikacji
Two studies tested one linear and two curvilinear hypotheses concerning the relationship between political conservatism-liberalism and cognitive ability. Study 1, focusing on students at a selective US university (n=7279), found support for the idea that some dimensions of conservatism are linked to lower verbal ability, whereas other dimensions are linked to higher verbal ability. There was also strong support for political extremists both on the left and right being higher in verbal ability than centrists. Study 2 employed aggregate data pertaining to the 50 US states and demonstrated that conservatism was linked to lower cognitive ability in states with high political involvement, but found conservatism to be correlated with higher average ability in states with low political involvement. The discussion addresses potential implications and criticisms of this research.

Little did he know he'd hit reply all not forward. And the email went to 40,000 students. Immediately NYU student body saw opportunity - the chance to send whatever they wanted to everyone. One circulated a photo of Nicholas Cage. Another wrote: How is everyone today? My favorite email: Anyone have a pencil I could borrow. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
