Andrew Weil, M.D., combines a Harvard medical degree with a lifetime of practicing natural and preventive medicine.

« The Yggyssey: How Iggy Wondered What Happened to All the Ghosts, Found Out Where They Went, and Went There | The Trouble with Chickens: A J.J. Tully Mystery » |
When Alex finds out he is Unwanted, he expects to die. That is the way of the people of Quill. Each year, all the thirteen-year-olds are labeled as Wanted, Necessary, or Unwanted. Wanteds get more schooling and train to join the Quillitary. Necessaries keep the farms running. Unwanteds are set for elimination.
It's hard for Alex to leave behind his twin, Aaron, a Wanted, but he makes peace with his fate—until he discovers that instead of a "death farm," what awaits him is a magical place called Artimé. There, Alex and his fellow Unwanteds are encouraged to cultivate their creative abilities and use them magically. Everything Alex has ever known changes before his eyes, and it's a wondrous transformation.
But it's a rare, unique occurrence for twins to be divided between Wanted and Unwanted, and as Alex and Aaron's bond stretches across their separation, a threat arises for the survival of Artimé that will pit brother against brother in an ultimate magical battle.
i haven't got very far but i love it !!!!!!! people say it is "the hunger games meets harry potter". i definetly agree! i feel the begging is like the hunger games and later on it will be like harry potter! i am dying to get farther! i hope it stays this amazing!!!!!
I am reading The Mighty Miss Malone by Christopher Paul Curtis. It is about a girl named Deza and her family and they are very poor because it is during the great depression . Her papa goes out with some of his friends to the Mississippi River to fish but disaster strikes . Papa isn't here and Jimmie ( Deza's brother ) has a weapon . I really like it because every chapter a new character is introuduced and something is happening . Some people might not like that but i like it because it won't just drag out and get boring .
The Unwanteds is my favorite book of all time and I hope you like it to. It is about a boy named Alex and his twin brother named Aaron. Alex is an Unwanted and Aaron is a Wanted.
When Alex is sent to his death Aaron is sent to the wanted University. Alex is suposedly sent to the great lake of boiling oil but instead he is sent to Artime and learns how to paint and draw but what he doesn't know is that another unwanted wants to kill Arron and take his place as secretary to the high priest Justine.Alex sends a 'message' to Aaron and exposes Artime !!!!!!! This all starts a war between The Quill and Artime. What the Quill doesn't know is that the high priest Justine learned magic and is desparatet to kill all the Unwanteds. My favorite character is Meghan Alexes friend who specializes in music and dance. Meghan's teacher is named Miss morning and she is a professional in music and dance. Alexes teacher is Miss Octavia and she teaches Alex painting and Alex wonders why he doesn't get sent to magical warrior training when he is an expert in everything he does. The reason he isn't being sent up is on purpose.He has a connection with Aaron and the teachers don't want him exposing their world. When he finds out he can make a magical 3D door that leads to Aaron's dorm he does it immediatly. It takes him months to complete it but he falls through and completes it. That is how he starts a war.
I hope you enjoy it!
I looved this book! Like in some parts it's sad but in every part in this book its adventurous! The cover is pretty neat too but,the book is what you really need to read. I recommend this book for people who like adventure,and i also feel like this book is mysterious because they have clues to how they find Alex for him not to be dead. I cried at that part , honestly :)
I really enjoyed reading the Unwanteds because of how I have the knowledge of the Hunger Games and Harry Potter.Quill is related to Panem in the Hunger Games.Airtime is like Hogwarts.You pretty much get how the Hunger Games and Harry Potter create the Unwanteds.I am super exited to read the Island of Silence.I hope it involves as much Harry Potter and the Hunger games as possible.I wonder if it will live up to the Unwanteds.I highly recommend reading this book if you like action and adventure.Another thing that involves the Hunger Games is that there is a an Octavia who is a stylist,and there is Miss Octavia who is a teacher.I love the suspence in the book.After I read one of the interesting chapters, I just had to read another chapter!I probably will vote for this book for the MCBA.In conclusion,the Unwanteds was amazing!I hope you will feel the same way about this book when you read it.
My two least favorite characters in The Unwanted's were without a doubt Aaron Stowe and High Priestess Justine. Aaron Stowe just didn't do anything that was not selfish. He blamed his brother Alex for everything including the existence of Artime' (Which is super unfair)and actually tried to murder him (and almost succeeded) to make himself look good. High Priestess Justine was a murderer of children. That alone is enough to make me hate her but she also convinced people that if they weren't a Wanted they would never be good enough. Also, she used magic to make people fear her so they would do as she said. People should be able to have their own thoughts and opinions. It's not right to make people do the wrong things by influencing them with fear and magic.

No matter where your allegiances may lie, you must admit that the Los Angeles Lakers are a high-class organization. Well, maybe not the part where their owner prefers to date several women a third his age, but all the other stuff. The beautiful arena, the celebrity fans, the special Sunday whites — it's all very regal.
Included in that feel of pageantry is the fact that the Lakers are usually very good and typically play a style of basketball that encourages aesthetic beauty. Those things certainly help. Other teams can be just as good, but the way the team and the franchise carry themselves is what makes them the Lakers. (It's also, let's not forget, the reason why opposing fans tend to hate the Forum Blue and Gold.)
Being the best is so ingrained in the Lakers' culture that it even filters down to their players' reactions to win. Just check out what Derek Fisher had to say after Los Angeles' latest win over the Timberwolves.
"The way we played tonight was irresponsible and it was reckless and it was disrespectful," Fisher said. "I can't get any clearer than that. There was an air of complacency, of arrogance, of 'we don't have to play as hard as the other team to win' that I didn't like tonight."
Sorry for finding that hilarious, but it very much reminds me of something Hunter Hearst Helmsley would have said before he became Triple H. Very aristocratic of Derek Fisher to look down upon his team's victory as arrogant, reckless and disrespectful. I imagine he did so while peering through a gold-rimmed monacle.
Nonetheless, it's kind of neat to hear a basketball player admit that his team didn't respect one of their opponents and have it come out complimentary. Fisher realizes that the Lakers didn't take the T-Wolves seriously and that it almost came back to haunt them. That he did so in a very blue blood manner is just gravy on the cake.
Or, as Derek Fisher would probably say, caviar on the Mother of Pearl spoon.

Lee Horwich |
Lee Horwich was named political editor of USA Today in August 2003. He joined USA Today as national editor in 2000. Prior to that he served as editor of Roll Call, a Capitol Hill newspaper, from 1998 to 2000. From 1990 to 1998 Horwich worked at the Baltimore Sun, serving as national editor for the last three years. Horwich talked with Campaign Desk as part of our continuing series of interviews with reporters and commentators covering the election.
Thomas Lang: On Monday the top half of USA Today's front page was given over to a poll story with a huge headline that read "Poll: Bush Leads by 8 Points." I'd like to ask you a question that Dan Okrent, the public editor of the New York Times, asked his own bosses: What makes a poll commissioned by your newspaper front page news when so many polls are flying around that most of us can't even keep count?
Lee Horwich: USA Today has a long history with the Gallup organization which is seen by many in the political community, both journalism and campaigns, as one of the best, if not the best, and most reliable polling organization. We are proud of our association with Gallup. In the past it has proved to be an interesting and informative poll.
I think what people forget is that polls don't predict. Polls are just merely snapshots in time. It was certainly both interesting and newsworthy that after three debates, which those same polls say Kerry won that Bush, had regained his standing from before the first debate was held.
T.L.: What do you think has been the high point of campaign coverage so far for USA Today? Also, what do wish you USA Today had covered differently?
L.H.: I think our coverage of the campaign has been highlighted by a few different things. One is I think we've provided interesting and explanatory coverage of voting problems. [Specifically], Jim Drinkard's stories throughout the year about problems with provisional voting, military voting and the continuing coverage he's had of what could happen on Election Day I think have opened a window for USA Today readers into those problems. We've been consistent about that. I think Susan Page's coverage of different gaps, for lack of a better word, how single women differ from married women, how people who attend church regularly differ from religious people who don't attend church regularly, have provided insights into voter behavior. I think our coverage of the campaigns themselves, of the Kerry campaign — of his ups and downs — and similarly with the Bush campaign have been consistent and informative. I also think our convention coverage was really outstanding.
For what we could have done better…
T.L.: It's a tough question, right?
L.H.: It's a tough question only because I'm so involved in looking ahead that I haven't looked back and tried to analyze where we could have been more aggressive. I think there are always places where you wish you had been quicker off the mark as the story evolved.
You and I have talked about the Swift Boat [Veterans for Truth] before. We did do a lot initially. I think overall the press can be criticized for devoting either too much or too little attention depending on your point of view, to that controversy.
T.L.: Looking ahead to the final days of the campaign, what do you think are the most important aspects of the race for USA Today to focus on?
L.H.: I think it's important to focus on what the candidates are saying and why they are saying what they are saying. I think it's important for us to be aggressive about early voting and problems with the voting that are occurring and those problems that could still occur on Election Day. And just to be prepared for outcomes that we might not have been ready to acknowledge in 2000. There is a lot going on in a lot of places and that is a challenge for a national paper. It takes a lot of preparation to put together the day-after paper and possibly the day after that and possibly the day after that.
T.L.: Most of the papers with similar circulations to yours target large east coast cities like New York City and D.C.. How do you tailor your coverage to match USA Today's motto "The National Newspaper?"

The Holmes Brothers come to D.C.
4/8/2014, 3:18 p.m.
The Holmes Brother, legendary performers known for their non-stop touring and bringing audiences to their feet night after night will perform at Gypsy Sally's in Washington D.C. on April 11. The band's new Alligator Records album, Brotherhood, which dropped April 1, is another stellar chapter in The Holmes Brothers' storied and still-evolving history.
For 35 years, The Holmes Brothers' joyous and moving blend of blues, gospel, soul, R&B, rock 'n' roll and country has been captivating audiences around the world. Originally from Christchurch, Virginia, the trio's spine-tingling three-part harmony singing, blues-soaked guitar solos and church-inspired piano playing expertly blends Saturday night's roadhouse rock and blues with the gospel passion of a Sunday morning service.
Rolling Stone says The Holmes Brothers play "impressive, fervent country soul." From winning multiple Blues Music Awards to sharing stages and recordings with Bob Dylan, Van Morrison, Bruce Springsteen, Joan Osborne, Willie Nelson, Lou Reed, Peter Gabriel, Merle Haggard, Al Green, Ben Harper, Lucinda Williams, Steve Earle, Levon Helm, Rosanne Cash, Odetta, Marc Cohn and The Jungle Brothers, The Holmes Brothers have seemingly done it all. USA Today says that band is "glorious...full of soul and surprises." The New York Times declares The Holmes Brothers "deeply soulful, uplifting and timeless."
Feeling up to the drive? Gypsy Sally's is at 3401 K Street, NW, Washington, D.C. Visit gypsysallys.com for more information.

The Delta Riggs
One Way Street Party
Saturday 13 April
In a time when anonymous online forums have replaced wild parties & dance floors have become parking lots for designer sneakers, The Delta Riggs are taking a stand. As a band that lives to tour, they know the extent of the suffering first hand – they've passed through country towns where spirit, lust and adventure have long gone and seen cluttered city streets filled with nine to fivers, paying their bills with much more than money. Souls and dreams lay on the line here.
Too many good folks have been swallowed by a beige wave of recycled pop, seemingly lost in an inoffensive indie undertow. We live in a society too bored to fight back against spoon-fed mediocrity, but The Delta Riggs are here for those who've had enough.
In a foot-stomping frenzy of hair, stick-it-to-the-man attitude and swampy blues, The Delta Riggs feel what you feel and express it exactly how you want it, with frustration and aggression, or joy and celebration. The 'Riggs shine a light on the reasons why Rock 'n' Roll shall always be a thing of the people, for the people… Now get on board and lets get this thing together.

Research Projects
Below is a list highlighting the projects and accomplishments of our ESHM CRP investigators and other ESHM faculty:
Research Projects involving Hospital Medicine Clinical Research Program Investigators
Prognostic utility of biomarkers of collagen turnover, matrix metalloproteinases (MMP 2, 3, and 9) and tissue-inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMP-1, TIMP-2) over contemporary prediction models, and their correlation with cardiac function and exercise capacity in patients with low ejection fraction heart failure
Researcher: Vikas Bhalla MD
Hypothesis: Biomarkers of collagen turnover will correlate strongly with both cardiac structure & function and functional capacity in low ejection fraction heart failure patients.
Characteristics of peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs): an analysis of patient characteristics, patterns of use, prevalence, necessity, complications, and alternatives in the hospital setting
Researchers: Brian C. Erb MD FASN, David Tong MD MPH
Hypothesis: We hypothesize that the prevalence and duration of PICCs are unnecessarily high and that opportunities can be identified to reduce patient exposure to the hazards associated with PICCs, in particular for patients with chronic kidney disease.
Goal-directed teamwork to improve frontline patient care
Researchers: Julie Hollberg MD, Jason Stein MD
Hypothesis: Highly functional frontline teams can be created through particular staffing models, rounding formats, use of daily goals checklists, and attention to dimensions of teamwork, such as cohesiveness, communication, role clarity, and goal clarity.
Prevalence, risk factors, and impact on clinical outcome of multi-drug resistant organisms: Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae
Researchers: Ketino Kobaidze MD PhD
Hypothesis: A better understanding of transmission of Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae will improve the effectiveness of the infection control program across Emory hospitals.
Prevalence of abnormal values and effect of alerts at the time of discharge
Researcher: George Mathew MD
Hypothesis: Dynamically generated electronic alerts at time of discharge by CPOE (computerized physician order entry), triggered by specific abnormal vital sign or laboratory values, will help identify and alter management decisions for patients in a large tertiary care hospital.
DiaSys: Computerized decision support to improve diabetes management in primary care
Researcher: Arun Mohan MD MBA
Hypothesis: Decision support technology will provide primary care providers with individualized treatment recommendations, and the underlying rationale; decision support recommendations for changes in therapy witll be considered valid by endorinologists; use of glucose monitoring-based computerized decision support by PCPs and their nursing staff will be feasible, safe, and effective.
Improving glycemic control in hospitalized ICU and non-ICU patients
Researcher: Hasan Shabbir MD
Hypothesis: To capture the potential strengths of team-based care and specialist oversight, we hypothesize that a glycemic control order set combined with real-time nursing interventions can improve best-practice utilization for glycemic control among hospitalized patients.
Improving glycemic control in hospitalized patients through a novel insulin drip conversion equation to standardize transition to subcutaneous insulin
Researcher: Randy Smith MD
Hypothesis: We hypothesize that for patients on insulin infusions, if an equation that takes into account caloric intake and intravenous insulin needs is used to determine subcutaneous insulin dosage, glycemic control will be achieved more predictably and rapidly than if a physician uses other means to determine subcutaneous insulin dosage.
Increasing prevalence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis in the hospital through measure-vention
Researcher: Jason Stein MD
Hypothesis: Real-time measurement to identify patients without VTE prophylaxis can serve as both an intervention and a measurement system to increase and track prevalence of VTE prophylaxis.
Reducing central line associated blood stream infections (CLABSIs) and eliminating the idle central venous catheter through measure-vention
Researcher: Sheri Chernetsky Tejedor MD
Hypothesis: Real-time measurement to identify patients with central lines can serve as both an intervention and a measurement system to prompt removal of idle central lines.
Improving transfusion utilization among inpatient physicians
Researcher: Dan VanderEnde MD DTM&H
Hypothesis: An educational program with audit-and-feedback can improve transfusion practices in the hospital.
Prospective evaluation of hospitalist and intensivist staffing models in the intensive care unit
Researcher: Kristin Wise MD
Hypothesis: Hospitalists can provide equivalent mortality outcomes for critically ill patients.
Collaborative Research Projects Involving Hospital Medicine Investigators
Antibiotic stewardship to reduce C. difficile colitis
Researchers: James Stone MD, Hasan Shabbir MD
Blood product restriction on a community hospital
Researchers: Hasan Shabbir MD, Sasi Ponnambalam MD
Comparison of a novel silver-coated catheter access device and a standard catheter access (funded by Baxter Healthcare)
Researchers: Jay Steinberg MD, Sheri Tejedor MD, Jesse Jacobs MDHospital medicine off service notes improvement
Researchers: Hasan Shabbir MD, Sukit Chaiyachati MD
Designing a quality program for a Department of Medicine
Researchers: Jason Stein MD, Marjan Khosravanipour MPH, Justin Rykowski
Improving inpatient glycemic control in cystic fibrosis related diabetes (funded by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation)
Researcher: David Tong MD MPH, Lindy Wolfenden MD, Vin Tangpricha MD
Low risk chest pain and effectiveness of 23 hr observation
Researchers: Dapo Odetoyinbo MD MPH, Hasan Shabbir MD
Molecular epidemiology of Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae among Emory affiliated hospitals
Researchers: Ketino Kobaidze MD PhD, Carolyn Gould MD, Eileen Burd PhD
Multi-center intervention to improve patient satisfaction
Researchers: Dapo Odetoyinbo MD MPH, Christin Ko MD, Shasi Poddar MD, Karen Clarke MD MS MPH, Jason Stein MD
Optimizing work-up of syncope
Researchers: Alan Wang MD, Hasan Shabbir MD
Predicting capacity for teamwork and leadership in hospital medicine
Researchers: Bryce Gartland MD, Alan Wang MD, Dallas Howard-Crow, Jason Stein MD

New Margiela For H&M Pieces Revealed | Pictures
Every Image From Maison Martin Margiela's H&M Capsule (With Prices!)
It's finally here: Maison Martin Margiela's full collection for H&M has been revealed, and the clothing and accessories are true to the avant-garde fashion house's signature style.
A representative for the house said that the clothing would mostly be reissued pieces from the Margiela archives, and these garments definitely embody the classic oversize silhouettes, deconstructed styling, and incorporation of found objects the house became famous for. But while prices for original Margiela pieces can reach thousands of dollars, prices for this collaboration run from $13 to $399.
Several pieces are fusions of more than one type of garment. One of the women's bottoms melds a skirt with trousers; elsewhere, halves of two different dresses are combined. The house also turned everything from key rings, locks of hair, and faceless watches into inventive accessories.
Photographs of the collection have slowly been released since August — with sneak peeks at the collection's ad campaign and lookbook — building up to its Nov. 15 release date. A look at all the pieces in the collection, plus their prices, here in the gallery.

Mavuuno helps farmers own affordable greenhouses
- Details
- Published Date
- Written by Editor
- Category: Latest News
Shayne Bement a student from Pensylvian State university demonstrate how drip irrigation kits work at Wambugu farm Nyeri county Thursday where Mavuno greenhouse Ltd was putting up greenhouses for small scale farmers for as little at Shs. 55,000.
Mavuuno Greenhouses Limited is putting up greenhouses for small scale farmers for as little as Shs. 55, 000 that measures 6 by 5.5 metres while bigger ones measuring 15 by 8 metres go for Shs. 140, 000.
The greenhouses that are also fitted with drip irrigation kits are easy to construct as readily available materials are used such as tree posts instead of metal ones and glazing material and net to cover the top and sides.
Mavuuno Greenhouses Limited Chief Executive Officer Wanjiru Kamau said the innovation of the greenhouses was developed by students from America's Pennsylvania State University in a bid to improve livelihoods and food security in the developing world.
Kamau further said she hopes to roll out the greenhouses across the country targeting small scale farmers who cannot afford conventional ones built by multinational companies that cost much more especially those growing horticultural products for export.
She further added that her organization was training local youth in greenhouse management as a way of encouraging them to venture into farming at an early age.
Pennsylvania university director of engineering and social entrepreneurship Khanjan Mehta said his institution came up with 12 designs of the affordable greenhouses that also have provision for future expansion.
Mehta observed that the Mavuuno greenhouses come in handy in Kenya since the country is largely semi-arid and will go a long way in ensuring food security adding that local farmers recover their costs within a shorter time.
Ministry of agriculture official Mrs. Rose Mugereki said greenhouse farming was more profitable than open field farming as crops mature faster due to the controlled temperatures adding that pests and diseases are minimal translating to more earning for farmers.
The agriculture officer further said that over 3,000 farmers from Nyeri County had put up greenhouses adding that the technology was being embraced by more farmers keen on getting better returns from the venture by the day.

Over 120 architect and design teams from around the world have registered their official interest in the V&A at Dundee project, which aims to develop a new centre of 21st century design for Scotland and the world at the heart of Dundee's waterfront.
The design competition was launched at the start of the year, with the deadline for initial submissions of interest set for February 15th and now 122 submissions have been received from all over the globe.
"The reaction to the design competition has been phenomenal," said Mike Galloway, Director of City Development for Dundee City Council.
"We are confident that we have a project here that is immensely appealing to the architecture and design community and that has been confirmed by the number and the quality of the submissions we have received.
"There are some very prominent names among those who have entered but we also have lots of emerging talent and it is fantastic to see the level of ambition that this project is creating."
The V&A at Dundee is being delivered by a ground-breaking partnership between the Victoria and Albert Museum - the world's greatest museum of art and design - and the University of Dundee, the University of Abertay Dundee, Dundee City Council and Scottish Enterprise.
Entries to the design competition will now be examined in detail by a panel of judges formed between the partners and external advisors. A shortlist of around 5 or 6 design teams will then be drawn up and announced later in the Spring. They will each be asked to produce design concepts and models, which will go on public view.
A winner of the design competition will be announced in the summer.
The V&A at Dundee is looking to create a landmark building, which will sit just to the south of Craig Harbour on a site to be created out into the River Tay. The site is being made available through the Dundee Central Waterfront Partnership, the joint venture between Dundee City Council and Scottish Enterprise which is revitalising the prime area of land linking the city centre with the River Tay.
Designers were invited to make proposals for a building that reflects the V&A at Dundee project partnership's desire to stimulate commerce as well as local and visitor interest.
It is planned that the V&A at Dundee will open in 2014.

SOPA Virus Kidnaps Computers for Ransom [Video]
Virus makers sometimes create what amount to digital versions of the creepy guy on the corner in a trenchcoat trying to convince kids to get in his 'police van.' The SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) virus is just the latest and worst example of this. It's called ransomware, and it will lock down a victim's computer and give them an ugly scare in the process.

Hugh Jackman explores his 'primal' side in 'Prisoners'
An interview with Hugh Jackman about "Prisoners," a disturbing film about a lost child and a parent's rage.
Seattle Times movie critic
Coming up
'Prisoners,' opening Friday, Sept. 20, at several theaters. Rated R for disturbing violence content including torture, and language throughout. For a review, go Thursday afternoon to seattletimes.com/movies , or pick up a copy of Friday's MovieTimes.
TORONTO — You might have thought, after seeing Hugh Jackman play the haunted, hunted fugitive Jean Valjean in "Les Misérables," that the versatile Australian actor might take on something lighter next time. Not a chance. In "Prisoners," opening Friday, Jackman plays one of his darkest roles yet: Keller Dover, a Pennsylvania husband and father drawn to vigilante violence after his little daughter is kidnapped.
"I often ask myself why humans don't just watch comedies all the time," said Jackman, looking impossibly relaxed (his famous charm is no myth) near the end of an afternoon of interviews at the Toronto International Film Festival last week. But he thinks that there's something cathartic about tragedy — "something that collectively we need to acknowledge, which is these deep fears within us that we squash, out of necessity, on a day-to-day basis."
Directed by Denis Villeneuve ("Incendies"), "Prisoners" also stars Jake Gyllenhaal as a cop investigating the case, Maria Bello as Keller's wife, Terrence Howard and Viola Davis as the parents of another kidnapped child, Paul Dano as a suspect in the crime, and Melissa Leo as the suspect's protective aunt. It's not an easy film to watch, and Jackman's character may well divide audiences in the lengths to which he goes to try to find his daughter.
"The tone of the violence has got to be unsettling and uncomfortable, both to play and to watch," Jackman said, crediting Villeneuve with carefully steering the movie away from "any kind of glorification of that violence, like 'Death Wish' or 'Taken.' "
During shooting, Jackman said, he often thought about "Mystic River," another deeply disturbing film about a lost child and a parent's rage. One scene from that film, in particular, haunted him — in which Sean Penn, as a father of a murdered daughter, turns up at the crime scene. Penn, he heard, arrived to shoot the scene and found only a few actors playing the cops who would keep him away from the body.
"Sean turned up saying, 'You're going to need more than three or four cops.' In the scene, there are like 12 cops halting him. You can see these actors really straining. That's kind of like Keller Dover. It's primal, at this point. It's not human-reasoned thought process. This is just something he has no choice but to do."
Jackman will next be seen on-screen in "X-Men: Days of Future Past," coming next Memorial Day. (Will that be the end of Wolverine? "Possibly. I don't know.") And he's about to turn his attention back to musicals — both stage and screen. He'll soon perform in the third workshop of a new musical about Harry Houdini; if all goes well, it'll be on Broadway "sometime next year." Though Aaron Sorkin, the original writer, has left the production (because of scheduling issues — "he does everything on his TV series"), it will have songs by Stephen Schwartz ("Pippin"), with playwright David Ives joining the project.
Though he's long wished to film "Carousel," Jackman's next screen project may well be an original musical: "The Greatest Showman on Earth," about P.T. Barnum. (Jackman clarified that this isn't "Barnum" the musical, but a new work.)
"It's taking a while to develop," he said. "A musical's always hard to sell — the conventional wisdom is that it's such a finite audience, there's very few people who are into it. Now, all of a sudden, there are more people who've seen 'Les Mis' than seen any of the X-Men movies."

(PRWEB) October 28, 2013
A status conference to discuss matters related to federally-filed Biomet hip lawsuit (http://www.consumerinjurylawyers.com/biomet-magnum-hip-replacement) claims is scheduled to take place next month in a federal litigation now housing more than 700 cases, Bernstein Liebhard LLP reports.
A Case Management Order issued in September indicates that an upcoming conference in the federal Biomet hip replacement proceeding established in the U.S. District Court, Northern District of Indiana will be held telephonically on November 18th at 9:00 a.m. This meeting will involve claims over the Biomet M2a Magnum metal-on-metal hip replacement, which has been associated with early failure rates and the need for revision surgery in recipients who have come forward to file Biomet lawsuits. Recent court documents indicate that 725 cases are now pending in this litigation. (In re: Biomet M2a Magnum Hip Implant Products Liability Litigation – MDL No. 2391)
"As we continue to hear from individuals who received the Biomet M2a Magnum hip implant, we are pleased to see progress in the federal Biomet hip lawsuit litigation," says Bernstein Liebhard LLP, a nationwide law firm representing victims of defective drugs and medical devices. Right now, the Firm is offering free and confidential case reviews to individuals who received this metal-on-metal hip implant and may now be experiencing complications.
Biomet Hip Lawsuits
According to a recent Case List update from the U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation (JPML) a total of 725 Biomet hip lawsuits were pending in the Northern District of Indiana as of October 17th, 2013. These cases similarly allege that Biomet Inc. failed to properly warn patients and their doctors about the potential for early failure complicati

Last year my husband built me some beautiful planter boxes, where we happily grew tomatoes, among other veggies. I went to our local garden store over the weekend, where they advised us against growing tomatoes in the same soil this year. And there's the flaw in my plan, because that's the only spot where we can grow tomatoes!!! So now what? The boxes are pretty big -- 4'x2'x2'. What if we empty all of the soil from last year, hose it down, and start fresh? Or is that still too risky? |

Refresh the soil in the planters, adding a bit of new material, and be sure to fertilize. If you didn't have any diseases last year, it should be fine. Josh |
You can do that to guard against wilt diseases. You might load your clean tank sprayer (no herbicides) with a 10% solution of household bleach or H202 and spray it down. Bleach prolly needs rinsing but the H2O2 doesn't. Toss the old soil on the compost pile. If you're up for it, you can make your own soil at (usually) less than half the price of commercially prepared mixes. Al |
Here is a link that might be useful: More about soils if you click me!
If you did not have any disease problem, last year , I don't see a reason to toss the old soil or do anything other than refreshing it , adding nutrients, manure etc. There is an old schooh called "ROTATING CROPS". It is supposed to be a preventive measure, BUT it is not practical for a backyard gardener with limited land/container resources. The guy who advised you, probably did not know what he is talking about. With a small container (several gallons soil) It would be probably wise to change the soil completely but with a big planter (16 cu-ft = over 1/2 cu-yd), which is very similar to a raised bed, replacing the whole thing does not make any sense, at least to me. some of My raised beds are 2.5 ft by 5ft by 1ft ( 12. cu-ft, much smaller than your planter) This is just my opinion. |
I think that any diseases in one planting box would easily be transferred to the other boxes. I have planted tomatoes in my garden without worrying about where I planted them last year with no problems yet. It is also suggested that you do not have potatoes where you had tomatoes last year because they get many of the same diseases. This is a rule I have also had no problem ignoring. |
- Posted by greentiger87 9a - Houston, Tx (My Page) on Wed, Mar 26, 14 at 19:08
Like everyone else, I would ignore that advice for a home garden. Just be cognizant of the issue if soil diseases become a problem. |
Another thing is that MOST tomato diseases are AIR BORN. |

Scattered Shots: New Year's Resolutions for Hunters and for Blizzard
The New Year is considered by many people to be the time for a fresh start, a time to wipe the slate clean of past missteps, or just to make some changes to your life to make it even better. In that spirit, I'd like to propose some Hunter-related resolutions for both Blizzard and for Hunters in the spirit of promoting peace, harmony, and understanding in the new year for all Survivalists, Marksmen, and Beastmasters.

COLLEGEDALE — It was "déjà vu all over again" as Walker Valley came into the District 5-AAA Boys Basketball Tournament as the No. 4 seed, but went home as champions.
"Having done the same thing last year, gave us a lot of confidence coming into the tournament that we could do it again," declared head coach Bob Williams after the exciting 68-63 victory over rival Cleveland High. "The guys (Mustang players) kept telling me, we were going to do it again."
Both the Mustangs (21-9) and Blue Raiders (17-8) have won 13 of their last 15 games, but Walker Valley's current 10-game winning streak includes two victories over Cleveland in an eight-day span.
"Everybody at Media Day (before the season began) was talking about whoever played the best at the end of the season would win the tournament and that's what it came down to," Coach Williams remarked. "Teams should be playing their best now. For us, our guys have really bought into the "team" concept. Throughout the season we had seven different players lead us in scoring. We are not about the individuals, we are about the team."
Claiming back-to-back district titles for the first time since 2008 and 2009, Walker Valley will host Cumberland County (11-18) Saturday evening in the opening round of the Region 3-AAA Tournament.
The Raiders will also be at home to open region play Saturday at Cleveland Middle School against White County (22-7), which shot down the Jets 72-38 in the District 6-AAA consolation game Tuesday.
After losing four of its previous half dozen games, Bradley Central (15-11) looked like the Bears who won 10 straight district games to claim the 5-AAA regular season title Tuesday evening with a 67-54 win over Ooltewah (15-11) in consolation action.
The Bears will open the region tournament Saturday by traveling to the loser between Cookeville (21-8) or Stone Memorial (23-6), which will battle for the 6-AAA crown this evening. Ooltewah will face the Cavalier-Panther victor the same night.
The Region 3-AAA semifinals and championship games will be played at Cookeville High School Feb. 24-27.
In girls region matchups, 5-AAA champion Bradley Central (21-5) will host Rhea County (22-8), the 6-AAA fourth seed, Friday evening at 7 in Jim Smiddy Arena. Cookeville (14-16) will travel to 5-AAA runner-up McMinn County (11-17) Friday as well.
The Walker Valley (19-11) and Cleveland (13-14) girls will travel to either White County (21-6) or Cumberland County (25-4), depending on the outcome of tonight's 6-AAA title tilt. The Lady Mustangs will journey to the losers' home court, while the Lady Raiders will battle on the winner's hardwood. Both games will tip off at 8 Friday evening.
District 5-AAA Boys Championship
After snapping Cleveland's 11-game winning streak in the final regular season game, Walker Valley knew the Raiders would be looking for payback Tuesday with the district title on the line.
The Mustangs came out of the gate on a full gallop, netting the game's first six points and leading 16-10 before District Co-Player of the Year Kendrick Thompson drained his second 3-pointer of the period to trim the lead to just three points at the first horn.
When Thompson hit a jumper from the lane to open the second frame, the difference was just a point.
The teams actually traded the lead four times throughout the period before Walker Valley edged back in front with a driving basket by senior Austin Harwood and an long-range bomb from Colton Morrow with four ticks on the clock for a 32-28 halftime advantage.
The Mustangs started the second half just like they did the first, scoring the first half dozen points to push the difference to double digits.
After being held at bay for most of the quarter, Cleveland rallied to score the final nine points to knot the score at 44-all heading into the final eight-minute span.
After both teams had found the bottom of the net twice to open the fourth period, Walker Valley went on a quick 7-0 run to put a little distance between them.
While the Raiders fought back to pull within four points three times, that was as close as they would come as the Mustangs sank 9-of-12 free throws in the game's final 2 1/2 minutes to lock up the title.
"Give Cleveland credit. They fought us the whole way. They never let up. I never felt it was over until it was over," proclaimed Coach Williams.
For the third straight game, the Mustang offense saw four players net double figures.
Harwood dropped in 12 of his team-high 17 in the second half. He also pulled down five rebounds and dished off four assists.
Brandon Crews pumped in 15 points, had a trio of caroms and two helps, while Lukas Korn had a double-double with 14 markers and 10 ricochets.
Harwood, Crews and Korn, all seniors, were each named to the All-District and All-Tournament teams.
Senior point guard Logan Melton drained a pair of opening-period 3-pointers on his way to 11 markers on the evening.
As a team, Walker Valley shot 62 percent (18-for-29) from in front of the arc, 36 percent (5-of-14) beyond it, plus drained 17-of-21 free throws (81 percent).
Cleveland, on the other hand, got off more shots from both the field and the stripe, but didn't connect as well. The Raiders went 14-for-30 (46 percent) from two-point land, 7-of-19 (37 percent) from downtown and just 14-for-22 (63 percent) from the charity line.
"We had too many missed opportunities," bemoaned Cleveland head coach Jason McCowan. "We didn't get stops down the stretch when we needed them. We missed too many free throws. A couple of times, while we were switching our press we left some people open and they found them."
"You can't make mistakes like that in the last period of a close game," he added. "Walker Valley is the most well-rounded team in the district, and you can't give them those kind of opportunities."
Finishing the three Raider tournament games with 85 points, Thompson led all scorers Tuesday with 29, including a trio of "treys." He also had four rebounds, two steals and blocked a shot.
Jake Gibson also drained three shots from beyond the 19-foot arc for nine Raider points.
Thompson and Gibson were joined by TyQwan Ware on the All-Tournament Team, while both Cantrel and TyQwan Ware joined Thompson on the regular season All-District squad.
District 5-AAA Boys Consolation Game
Having split their two regular season matchups, Bradley and Ooltewah played an almost even first three periods before the Bears exploded in the fourth.
The teams combined for 41 first quarter points with the Bears leading 22-19 when the horn sounded, but then they both netted just nine markers in the second frame.
The Owls trimmed the difference to a single point (44-43) heading into the final eight minutes.
Ooltewah took just its second lead of the contest when Co-District Player of the Year Ben Snider hit the opening bucket of the final period, but the next dozen points were canned by Bears.
Bradley added to its lead with a 6-2 spurt to go up by 16 with just over two minutes remaining before claiming the 13-point victory.
The Bears dominated the backboards by a 38-15 rebounding advantage, plus hit 22-of-39 shots (56 percent) from close range and half of their eight 3-point tries.
Ooltewah made more long-range shots (10-of-31) than two-pointers (9-of-22) in the contest.
"We have always been a man-to-man (defense) team, but tonight we confused them by playing zone," commented District Coach of the Year Chuck Clark. "We played four different zones in the first half, but a 2-3 zone the entire second half."
"We told the guys to play hard or they weren't going to play," the first-year Bear head coach expressed. "We aren't as athletic as a lot of teams, so we have to play hard, hustle and go all out. We played with a lot of heart and used our heads tonight."
Bradley had a balanced scoring attack with freshman Cole Copeland posting a double-double with 10 of his game-high 19 points coming in the opening period, plus he cleared 13 rebounds, handed out a trio of assists and blocked a shot.
"Cole isn't a freshman anymore. He has a whole season under his belt and played a great game tonight," Coach Clark praised.
Junior Daniel Clark helped out with 17 points, while senior Taylor Bentley netted 16, grabbed five boards, copped three steals, blocked a pair of shots and handed out a couple of helps.
Both Bentley and Clark were named to the All-District and All-Tournament teams.
"We had good, balanced scoring tonight, plus we got a boatload of rebounds," the Bear coach commented.

"Delicious! I doubled the recipe since others had said it doesn't make much. EXCEPT, I quadrupled the wine and tripled the orange juice. And I didn't have brandy so I used spiced rum as others said to do. Used a mediocre red wine and it was great! I'll stock up on the cheap stuff to make this all winter."
"Pretty good recipe. I made two 8x8 pans instead of one large one. I baked one in the oven as directed, but left it in an extra 5 mins since it didn't look quite done. I think I actually should have kept it in another 5 mins. Must be my oven? I stuck the other pan in the freezer for another night -- I'll let ya'll know how that one turns out."
"Just started a gluten-free diet and these are a perfect treat! I used reduced fat peanut butter, splenda and 1/4 cup egg substitute. I used a teaspoon measuring spoon to form them and baked for 6 minutes at 350. They were still a bit chewy and the perfect bite size. Yum!"
"Got an ice cream maker for xmas and used this recipe for my first attempt. SO good! Didn't have half and half so just used 1.5 cups each of cream and milk. Also used Splenda instead of sugar. Turned out great -- creamy, sweet and very vanilla-y."
"This is awesome! Doubled the recipe for hubby and myself and only had a couple minor changes. Used half brown sugar and half splenda, didn't double the butter, and left the apple skin on since that's where most of the nutrients are. It was great! Also threw in some pitted cherries I had in the freezer -- YUM! Topped with low fat cool whip and didn..."
"This is SO good! Since I don't eat meat, I made it vegetarian: vegetable broth instead of chicken, cream of mushroom instead of cream of chicken, no bacon. Added a cup and a half of frozen corn after reading other reviews and it was awesome! Hubby who is a total carnivore and very picky loved it too. Easy and delicious! Thanks Stacylu!"

Latch Key Kids
Kids who stay at home alone
Children must be mature enough to be left alone.
The target age will differ from child to child; both parent and child need to agree when this is.
You must agree on the rules, and trust that the child can obey them.
Having friends over, leaving the house, cooking are a few examples.
Make sure your child has plenty to keep them busy while alone.
Keep them to a routine: Wake up, breakfast, dressing and chores are a few examples.
Be aware of computer usage in your absence. Use channel lock on cable TV for channels that may not be appropriate for viewing.
Your child must know what to do in an emergency and be able to carry it out. If you are not sure that your child can handle a situation, such as a stranger or friend at the door, that child should not be left alone.
If you have weapons in the house you must be sure that your child will not touch them.
One child every two hours is killed in the United States with a gun.
They must know the difference between TV and reality.
Weapons should always be locked up and unloaded.
Always keep the house key in a safe place, never out doors, and preferably not in sight.
Never tell strangers that you're child stays home alone. Let friends and family know that your child will not open the door without your knowledge and permission.
Leave emergency numbers near the telephone and teach your child when and why to use them, 911, your number, neighbor's number, family member's number are examples.
If you are going to be late let your child know. When you do get home make sure that you spend time with your child. Talk about their day, what is going on with them and how they feel. Your child should know they can be comfortable telling you anything. Your reaction will determine if they tell you anything in the future.
If you are not sure about leaving your child alone, attend a Latch Key class with them and discuss it together. When you both feel the time is right, start out slow and work up to longer periods of time. Your child's safety must come first and that is your responsibility.
When disciplining your child, never tell them you will call the police or that the police will take them. In an emergency we want your child to run to us, not away from us.

The NES version of Contra is one of all my all-time favorite games. I remember the first time I played it. It is a love I've never gotten over. I've always kept tabs on the games and its sequels. Recently, I discovered the Android app Contra: Evolution.
Evolution is an updated version of the NES version. It has the same levels in the same arrangement. It has the same two soldiers and the same weapons and same music. But it has all been improved. The graphics are finer and the music sharper. There are also a couple of female soldiers, a boss rush mode, a mission mode (beat certain levels under a certain time and with a certain score), and weapon power-ups. There is in-app purchasing as well. I didn't try that, but you can apparently buy better weapons with it.
It seems like there is some sort of PC version of Evolution out there. I don't know if it was only released in Europe or something, but I could never find it. I only found pictures of a game that clearly wasn't my Android app.
I also really missed my gamepad. I would have dominated Evolution if I could play with an actual controller. Even so, the controls were better than what I've experienced with other Android apps. I was able to play through the entire game and do okay with the mission mode.
Nothing is going to take my heart away from the original. But if you're going to remake and expand on a classic, you could do worse than Contra: Evolution. I highly recommend it. And if you find out anything about a pc version, let me know!
And if you liked this post, check out my video game books ANESthetized and Arcadian.

My kitchen garden needs a bit of rehab. I want to expand it and add a fence around the outside and plant fruit along the inside of the fence. I will be mowing along the outside (on at least two sides) and want to have purple raspberries, red raspberries, blackberries and blueberries. Does anyone have this type of layout? The new part of the garden will have some beds for veggies and herbs. Right now, it's mostly grass, so I could keep grass paths or replace them with hay. I don't have the money for pavers and don't want gravel. We have short summers, lots of snow and a mud season that lasts 4-6 weeks. Grass is the only thing that doesn't sink or slide around, in late February and most of March. Does anyone else have grass paths between perimeter and interior beds? I'd ask this in the potager forum, but it's pretty slow right now. Thanks in advance :) |
Follow-Up Postings:
Yes you can do that. I use a trellis, not fencing. If you mulch around plants to keep the grass out, but realize that brambles can send suckers 3 feet away from the plant, like in the middle of the grass. Blackberries grow crazy wild. Zone 4 is pretty cold for most types of blackberries. Also blueberries are bushes, not vines and need no support. They do need room, and very acidic soil to grow. Your soil type will matter greatly, and you have to be able to monitor the PH. You need to water with acidic water too. Tap water usually is not good. I use raised beds for my raspberries so they remain confined to the beds. My blackberries are in ground mulched, surrounded by grass on both sides. here is a photo from one end of my blackberry trellis. |

Drew, Could you elaborate further on the raspberries staying confined to raised beds. That was the first I had heard of that. Northwoodswis |
My raised beds are 1 foot tall. the raspberry roots would have to grow one foot down, and underneath. i suppose they could. So far they have not. You could make them taller. I seen some recently that were 2.5 feet high. I made a 2x24 foot long bed. Other beds are attached, but each bed has a barrier, so to get into the other bed they need to grow up a foot too. If they get into the grass, i don't care, i'll just mow them down. Here is a photo of the bed from june. A side view were you can see construction a little better. The beds to the right are 4x4 and have a blueberry plant in the middle. I can control the soil PH this way. In ground here with blueberries is out of the question. The blueberries are surrounded by strawberries. They will be removed once the blueberry plants are bigger. All plants planted this year. Picture taken on 2013 06 24. The last bed is 8x12 and will be where all the raspberry runners will go, well have gone. it's full now! During the season i grew corn in the bed. i got 65 ears! |
Here's a photo of the beds from a different angle on 2013 10 16. Raspberries are trellised with 4 wires. |
From a similiar angle as the first photo, but 4 months later, also taken on 2013 10 16, You can see the trellis wires better. Going right is the wires for the blackberries shown in my first post. So bramble patches are at 90 degrees from each other. You are looking Northeast, so this rasied bed runs NE to SW. Blackberry canes can be seen in the forground. A added 1x4 beds between the 4x4 beds since the photo in June. Next year flowers that attract beneficial insects will be planted in these small beds. |

Fine looking beds. I bet you are eying the space I see remaining. I'd consider running currants along the top of the chain link fence if you get along with the neighbor and they approve. |
"I'd consider running currants along the top of the chain link fence" Great minds think alike. See the end of the fence farthest away? On that photo you mention? The small part running at a right angle from the main fence? I'm developing a currant cordon on that fence. My dog runs that path, so I have to keep it open. My neighbor would probably object to it, so I used my fence only. The fence really needs to be replaced. Plus I'm moving in 5 years. Yeah sucks. In 5 years everything is going to be so cool! I will have to start over. (sigh) |
