Key Insights On Platelet-Rich Plasma For Soft Tissue Repair
Four of the six patients improved and have not required further surgery. One of the remaining two felt that the improvement was enough to continue with normal activities and has not proceeded with other treatment. The other patient had open debridement.
Obviously, the major limitation with this study is that all patients had a gastrocnemius recession, which alone could have led to the improvement. The longest follow-up is three years.
I have also used PRP to treat chronic plantar fascial pain. While the patients' usual presentation is typical of plantar fasciitis, they no longer have signs of inflammation consistent with plantar fasciitis. These patients with chronic plantar fascial pain failed conservative treatment with orthotics, steroid injections, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and physical therapy.
Surgical intervention consists of a gastrocnemius recession and a PRP injection into the medial and central band of the plantar fascia origin. The post-op protocol is the same as I mentioned above for Achilles tendinosis.
I have followed 54 patients over the last three years. Preliminary results have shown a 90 percent success rate. Forty-seven percent of patients needed another PRP injection while five patients have gone on to receive an open plantar fasciotomy. Once again, the major limitation of assessing these results is that patients underwent a gastrocnemius recession.
In Conclusion
The biochemistry behind using PRP for the treatment of soft tissue pathology seems to be clear although there is a lack of well designed studies with high-level evidence to determine the clinical significance.
At this point, I have had good success with the use of PRP for chronic injuries of ligaments and tendons. One may employ PRP in an attempt to avoid a more invasive surgical procedure.

PTC police warn of auto break-ins
Don't leave keys, valuables behind ... and don't program "home" into your GPS
Peachtree City has seen an uptick in entering auto cases in recent weeks and is asking motorists to remove valuables from their vehicles and always lock the vehicle when leaving it unattended whether at home or away.
Criminals have been targeting unlocked vehicles and those which have valuables inside in plain view, police said.
Citizens are being asked to be alert to suspicious persons waiting in parking lots and watching where motorists are hiding or placing their valuables, police said.
Any suspicious activity should be reported to 911 immediately.
Residents should be particularly careful not to leave keys inside a vehicle, police said. Police also urge residents to avoid programming a "home" location into a GPS device, as that combined with house keys or a garage door opener can make a home an easy target for a burglary.
In addition to always locking a vehicle, residents also should be sure to keep their windows rolled up also, police said.
Residents also should avoid leaving valuable items such as purses, cellphones, laptops and other electronics inside the car, police said. Criminals often take advantage of opportunities, and all it takes is a quick peek inside a car window for a criminal to pick a valuable item to target, police have said.
Earlier this year, an alert citizen dining at a local restaurant was able to report a thief who entered several cars and took items. The report led to the person's arrest on multiple charges of entering an automobile.
Local areas recently reporting... ??
Concentration patterns...??
Pins in the map, PLEASE??
Are there particular neighborhood(s) on the thieves' "radar"??
Hello PTCPD...
Help us... help you!
I don't know where they get such facts, but forget getting the info.
Wonder how often this has happened and why? Is that "home" supposed to be special to a burglar?
Might be helpful if we knew what the "uptick" was.
I am amazed that people still leave their auto unlocked, the windows down, and valuables in plain sight!
If I reported all "suspicious" looking people, I would be arrested for harassment.
I'm sorry, but this looks like a standard Police issue notice! Thank you anyway for the reminder.
"home" is special to a burglar. You see, to be burglar, your home is his workplace. If he steals your GPS device and garage door opener all he has to do is punch the home button to see where to go.
I recomend making the home button a business or police station. I also believe that if your stuff gets taken out of an unlocked car, you deserve what you got.
Yeah, now I get it!
If he steals my GPS with home programmed and I happened also to leave my garage door opener and my bank safety deposit key and number and my two guns and my wife's purse which has money and credit cards and her fur coat and diamond ring and my money clip and two laptops and the kids play stations and a picnic lunch, then the to be burglar won't even need to tear up my house nor burst out my car window!
Since my name was included, courthouserules, I am answering you.

Who wants to know how to breed Big Zac?
I have started a thread here:
Background: Big Zac is a hybrid, you need to have the two parent varieties to get Big Zac seeds. Minnie Zaccaria of Long Branch NJ bred this variety for competition. She reached sizes over 6 lbs. She later sold the rights to Totally Tomatoes for making the seed available commercially. Now only Totally Tomatoes' parent company and Mrs. Zaccaria have the right to know how to breed true Big Zac. But maybe, just maybe, this thread might produce some clues or ideas as to the possible parents of Big Zac. So, anyone have any other inside info, clues or ideas? Please participate in the thread above. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I have no idea, but I'm pretty sure that that is the woman who lives next door to me when I am not away at school! If it's the same lady, her tomatos are HUGE! When I was little my grandma always told me about how she had won tons of competitions for her veggies. She was very nice and had very pretty sunwheels in the garden that I liked to watch spin when the wind came. |
If you live beside Minnie Zaccarie get out your spotting scope and watch the most successful tomato grower in recent times. No one has touched her....not even close. She is a grand ole lady and in my opinion the best grower of all times to date. I grow Big Zac every year. I get some dandies but never in her league. Incidently the seed saved produce about 75% Big Zac and all the other crosses as expected. You can see the vigor of Big Zac in the early growth of seedlings. If pennies are important planting saved seed with careful observation is not all to great a risk. |
I want to get all set to try to grow a big one next year. I am wondering how everyone is doing so far this year. Big Zac is a hybrid. For all the expenses and time to grow them I want to use the real thing. If anyone wants to split an order to save money, send me an email. I want to get and use the real deal Big Zac. |
Only Minnie knows for sure. All the rest of us can do is guess...:) BZ never lets me down. Great variety! |

Tomatoes are a vine, a member of the nightshade family. Any vine that I know if can be rooted from cuttings and to the best of my knowledge, will produce a clone of the parent plant. I believe that the cutting method of propagating can be used with any vine. I know it works with other tomatoes, peppers and seeet potatoes |

The problem with Gattaca is this: - a miserable, cold-ly dispassionate setting is no excuse for making a miserable, coldly dispassionate film. The whole thing is so thoroughly blue-lit, so designed to gleaming cinematic perfection that it's hard to care about anyone or what they say or feel or do. In fact, the only fleshed-out, wonderfully cynical and roundedly human character (played by Jude Law) gets such a rough deal all the way through that you leave the cinema appalled that writer/director Andrew Niccol could have done something so incredibly nasty to one of his creations.
The core of Gattaca is the purest kind of sci-fi - - a credible extension of what you've read or seen on TV that makes you wonder which bits are real and which are made-up. If you've heard about Dolly the cloned sheep or DNA-tested individuals being turned down for life insurance because of their wonky genes, then the world of Gattaca sounds just minutes into the future.
The problem for central protagonist Vincent (Hawke) is that he's just an ordinary bloke, who's a bit shorter than average, needs to wear glasses and is from a family line with a rumbling history of heart trouble. Only in his time, being normal simply isn't good enough, as everyone else had all their genetic flaws ironed out at the conception stage. So while he's averagely healthy, slightly more intelligent and an okay sort of bloke, everyone else in the job market has been produced to be all they can be - bronzed Adonises bathed in golden sunlight who are pumped out like Play-Doh figures. Consequently, he's never been able to get good education, health insurance or a decent job because he has a slightly higher than normal chance of dying young.
So what he does is pretend he's someone else, someone more worthy, someone more likely to be accepted into the space programme. In an illegal deal, he teams up with Jerome (Jude Law) - - an Olympic swimmer who feels bad about never winning gold, and whose laboratory-buffed shiny-happy genes and ox-strength heart couldn't stop him from being run over and paralysed.
Thus begins a sombre odd-couple pairing, with Jerome wheeling about his stark laboratory providing skin and hair samples for Vincent to scatter about his workplace in a bid to thwart random tissue sampling, urine bags for Vincent to squirt into test tubes and blood specimens to allow Vincent to pass the daily entrance security check. All the while, faith-birth Vincent lives upstairs (linked by the oh-so-literal swirling helix DNA staircase), gawps at beautiful co-worker Irene (Uma Thurman), and financially supports the both of them while pursuing his astronaut dreams.
Now this is all strange and compulsive viewing - - but it isn't the main story. And Vincent's romance with Irene is great too, as it's complicated by her shameful admission of being less-than-perfect and him having to hide his own shortcomings. The flashbacks to Vincent's struggles against his perfect brother are intriguing - - but they're not the main story either. What binds the entire thing together is a dumb workplace murder that threatens to reveal Vincent's true identity when the police hoover the place for genetic evidence and find one of his eyelashes at the scene. Apart from providing the threat to Vincent's duplicity, the entire murder thing's so hokey, and so badly wound up that this whole plot strand seems to have wandered in from an entirely different movie.
The film's bursting with ideas and talent, and Niccol is going to go onto bigger and better things. But this smacks of first-time director's movie - - it tries to be different and innovative and odd for every second of its running time, yet forgets to be plain old entertaining, as if the notion were just too boring to bother with. A near-miss then, although, judging by the skill with which Gattaca's made, Niccol's next one promises to be a blinder.
With fine acting, a good script and an interesting premise, Gattaca manages to be everything apart from captivating. It's a thought-provoking and interesting story that, ultimately, proves to be a passive and unengaging viewing experience.

I don't know where I found this gluten free chestnut flour. It sat in my cupboard for months and recently I decided to try it when my son became intolerant of rice, corn and potatoes. It has a delicious , creamy flavor and is my new favorite gluten free flour. Everyone thought the pancakes, crepes and cookies I made with it were yummy. I honestly don't even know what whole chestnuts taste like, but the flour is wonderful. After not finding it in several stores nearby where I might have purchased it, I ordered three bags from Gluten Free Mall today.

Quoted from ABJoe Does anyone know if eating the horseradish leaves would have similar genoharmonic effects as the root? It is easier for me to pick some leaves to chew on or add to salad, etc. than to dig some root...Also, if I use whole cranberries in a dish rather than cranberry juice, I presume it will do the same as the juice is made from the whole berry... Is this reasonable extrapolation?
Quoted from Chloe I would follow the way your GH list is written if you want to be absolutely sure you're going to get the GH benefits you want... IMHO, of course.
Quoted from Goldie THIS combo means any one food > not all that are listed on the Right?? I looked at my O Gatherer list and could not find beef > does that mean I dont ned to combine or I should not have it?In the meat listing I can have it. why not in the green harmonics list.. or is all super/beneficial food gene harmonic with beef?
Quoted from Goldie what about the fact that I have no beef on either side? thanks for your answer.. I will add at least one or more from now on, but if beef is not included on either side, then that leaves me turkey, since I don't eat fish things.
Quoted Text I wish in GH mayo was there!

Europe's Thermal Water Spas
By: Caroline Rushworth
Posted: June 23, 2008, from the June 2006 issue of Skin Inc. magazine.
page 4 of 4
Moving farther south, a series of thermal resorts in Emilia-Romagna, in the foothills of the Apennine Mountains, predominantly contains sodium chloride, iodide or bromide. These waters are recommended for a wide range of afflictions—from metabolic disorders to eczema.
Another Italian region with a high concentration of spas is Tuscany. The consumption of thermal waters also has a long tradition in this region. A number of springs that were used in Roman times are still popular today, including Montecatini, Roselle, Chianciano and Chiusi. In the past century, the Tuscan resorts have transformed from exclusive meeting places of European royalty to favorite vacation spots for families.
Thermal water and the skin
Although no one disputes that pure water is best for drinking, mineral-rich thermal waters are wonderful for incorporating into your clients' skin and body treatments. The natural elements contained in balneotherapy, thalassotherapy and thermal water products provide overall balance, tone and incredibly healthy skin.

Samsung CEO says 'patent disputes with Apple will continue'
While Apple was able to settle its past patent disputes with both Nokia and HTC, its ongoing legal battles against Samsung show no signs of slowing down.
According to the Korea Times, Samsung CEO Shin Jong-kyun recently spoke to reporters and indicated that an all-encompassing settlement agreement with Apple isn't on the horizon.
The CEO confirmed Samsung has no intention of ending the patent disputes with Apple.
"Patent disputes against Apple will continue," Shin said.
The paper notes that Jong-kyun's remarks are the first he's made about Apple since the ITC in early June ordered an import ban against older-generation iPhones and iPads for infringing upon standard essential patents owned by Samsung.
With a multitude of legal cases in jurisdictions across the globe, it would appear, at this point, that both Apple and Samsung will continue to fight this out until the bitter end. After all, Apple and Samsung together account for nearly 100 percent of the profits in the smartphone market and it stands to reason that neither side is sufficiently motivated to back down in any way.
That's all well and good, but the problem with these patent disputes is that by the time they ultimately go to trial, the products and designs in question may very well be irrelevant.
Tim Cook himself said as much while testifying in front of Congress this past May. Though he was in D.C. to discuss Apple's tax practices, Cook at one point was asked about the state of IP in the tech industry.
Cook replied,
I think the US Court system is currently structured in such a way that tech companies aren't getting the intellectual property protection they need. Our cycles are fast, the court system is very long and the foreign competitors in the US can quickly take IP and use it and ship products with it and they're to the next product as well. I would love to see conversations between countries and see protections between IP globally. For us, our intellectual property is so important, I would love the system to be strengthened in order to protect it.

I studied at the University of Lausanne in Switzerland and obtained a Masters and PhD from the same institution in 1996, and 2000, respectively. After a brief stay at the University of Bern, I moved to Edinburgh, first as a postdoctoral research associate and then as a postdoctoral fellow.
At the end of 2002, I was offered a lectureship in the Department of Genetics in Cambridge. I built up a successful research group and stayed there for five years. In 2007, I decided to leave Cambridge to join the newly formed MRC Centre for Outbreak Analysis and Modelling within the Department of Infectious disease epidemiology at Imperial College London. I again spent five years there as a Reader and left in 2012 to become professor of Computational Systems Biology at UCL.
In order to extract meaningful biological information from genomic data, we need dedicated methodological tools. This is where we fit in and our mission statement is to harness genomic information by developing, refining and applying computational tools to genomic datasets to address important and interesting scientific questions.
Our core interest is to use genomic data to reconstruct past population history of a variety of organisms. One research focus in the lab is on the reconstruction of human colonisation of the world. One key motivation behind this work is to generate "null models" for the current distribution of genetic diversity, which allow controlling for the effect of past demography when making inference on genes that may have been affected by natural selection.
We also work on the reconstruction of infectious disease outbreaks and epidemics on a series of human (MRSA, the plague, malaria, influenza) and wildlife pathogens (Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, ranavirus). The focus of this work is increasingly on why some lineages have been more successful than others. In this context, one aspect we are increasingly getting interested in is the prediction of drug resistance and their associated fitness costs from genome sequence data.
Our work spans a large spectrum ranging from the fundamental (e.g. reconstructing historical plague pandemics) to the applied (e.g. tracking MRSA infections in hospital wards). Indeed, we do not feel there must be a divide between fundamental and applied science, and while our research is primarily driven by scientific curiosity, we aim at contributing with our work to the genomic revolution in medicine, public health and conservation biology.

Framing on our new home will start Monday, so I need to decide whether to soffit an area of the kitchen or not. I would also like feedback as to which cabinet design you prefer. I have included the layout of the kitchen in respect to the family room, breakfast nook, pantry and mudroom. I am considering a soffit on the range wall because the cabinets are already somewhat recessed into the wall and we are doing large beams at the ceiling across the family room and into kitchen as shown by grey bars in floorplan. The ceiling height in the kitchen and family room is 12' and the height in the breakfast nook drops to 10'. The first plan has glass-topped stacked cabinets and a "hidden pantry" beside the oven stack. The second plan (hand-drawn) has no stacked cabinets in kitchen with traditional pantry door and a more defined hutch area. There is also cabinetry in the butlers pantry area on both sides going from kitchen to dining. I am planning to drop ceiling in here to 10' because of the small space. The designs for this area still need to be tweaked a bit. Even though there are stacks here, I doubt I will do stacks. Do I take these cabinets up to 8' or 9'? The doors and cased openings will all be 8' tall. The perimeter cabinets will be a medium to dark cherry in a fairly simple raised panel that looks more contemporary than most. The island will be a taupy/grey color with light countertops... if I can find my dreamy splendor delicatus in the right shade and with dramatic movement. I doublt I will change my mind with the layout of appliances. I would like to keep my primary work area in the galley and not in the walkway to the mudroom, hence the refrigerator and clean up sink placement. But, I am open to any ideas you may have. Thanks in advance for your help!!! |
Follow-Up Postings:
I prefer simpler, cleaner lines, so mostly like the 2nd styles in each drawing. I especially like the area next to the pantry to have more counter and not have the long doors down to the counter. Also, in the first picture, that area next to the oven and pantry looks like it's trying to be a furniture piece, but everything on that wall looks like separate things all shoved together. I'm not sure how to explain that better, and less offensively! I just think there is a lot going on and, like I said, all lined up, shoulder-to-shoulder, doesn't work for me. How do you do soffits with the cabinets changing height at the top? Or would you do away with that? If you drop the ceiling in the butler's pantry, might you want to do cabinets to 9 ft and have the ceiling where the cabinets end? Or do you want to store serveware or have lighting above? |
- Posted by buckeyegoldenmom (My Page) on Fri, Nov 30, 12 at 21:03
In our area of the country. Everyone is trying to get rid of soffits, so I can not imagine a new build with soffits. I am starting a remodel of my 25 year old home and each room I do I make sure to remove the soffits if possible! |
- Posted by Momto3kiddos (My Page) on Fri, Nov 30, 12 at 21:50
I was thinking of changing the hood to one that tapers towards the top, but I can't run it all the way to the ceiling because of the ceiling beam that abuts there. I though if I run we soffit, I could have somewhere to end the hood without interfering with the beam. I did some some pics of a tapered hood that ended below the ceiling, which is what I am considering now. D you think a tapered hood would look strange if it ended below the ceiling? In my example. I would take it to around 120". I have a picture from houzz with the shape of the hood but I cannot figure out for the life of me how to add it from my iPad. |
I vote for no soffit since it is becoming outdated. Your kitchen plans with the beautiful cabinets and more drawers is very nice! |
I think the ubiquitous, surround the kitchen soffits with no use to the design but to lower the ceiling and hang cabinets from is outdated... but carefully considered soffit as design element can be a nice, clean look. There was a thread with pics awhile back of recent kitchens with soffits. For instance, framing in over a fridge is a use of soffit similar to what you're proposing for your stove area since it's framed on the ends. It would help create an alcove look... plus helping you with how to terminate the beams and not have them interfere with you cabinet wall. And I could truly prefer soffit to open, dust catching area above the cabinets. It may not be the answer you choose but I don't think your suggested idea is on par with the old soffits so many are eliminating. With your tall ceilings and the beams, they could help you out. |
- Posted by slateberry51 (My Page) on Sat, Dec 1, 12 at 7:51
I looked through the finished kitchen blog for a while thinking about this for myself. I thought that my preferences would be: 1. Cabinets fitted to ceiling with crown molding (no gap) 2. Cabinets nearly to ceiling with crown molding (small gap) 3. Cabinets with soffits To my surprise, it turned out that 1 and 2 were a tie. There were many kitchens with a gap between the top molding edge of the cabinets and the ceiling that I liked a lot. But soffits stayed a distant third. I live in a victorian house and I like Peacock kitchens. Looking at your kitchen design, i'd say our tastes aren't too far apart. Look at a lot of pictures objectively of kitchens with and without (in your copious spare time with house building deadlines--right). I bet you ditch the soffits. They don't look like they're your style. |
I do agree with Slateberry51 that the soffit look I was talking about is, perhaps, a bit contemporary compared to the style shown in the drawings you've posted. |

Wondering if someone knows what/how to decipher this mark. Have checked 'A', 'DC', and 'ADC' to no avail. Hoping the rest of the marks may give up more clues.
The piece is a tiny spoon, 3-3/4", with a cut-out thistle decoration on top. These markings are on the outer edge face of the bowl, not where one usually finds these markings. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I believe it's Edinboro sterling.... The marks are not very clear....but I think the date letter is a Q....making it 1872-3. Look thoroughly at the site below and see what you think. Linda C |
Here is a link that might be useful: Scottish silver
I'd love to believe it's that old :) Here's a couple more pics. The date letter Q looks right, but I can't make out any of the other marks. Believe you told me once that it should state "sterling" or "925" if it's indeed sterling, see I really do listen to you, but try as hard as I might just don't see either of these. Guess the spoon looks different enough that it piqued my curiosity. Thanks for the quick response. |
"Believe you told me once that it should state "sterling" or "925" if it's indeed sterling, " Except for British marks.....they march to a different drummer. I can't find the maker....the AC DC mark....but the next is Queen Victoria's head....shown between 1838 and 1890, Then the thistle and lastly the date letter Q showing plainly to my eye....1872-3. Yeah...it's that old....and lovely!! |
- Posted by antiquesilver (My Page) on Sun, Mar 18, 12 at 19:25
I don't have anything helpful to add but I question the Edinburgh attribution. Every place I've checked has the Queen's head & the Q in oval cartouches rather than clipped squares. Also, the middle cartouche is the correct shape but the castle doesn't match the Edinburgh one to my eye nor do I see a thistle stamp. |
Will small pieces the full compliment of stamps often is not present. I want it to be Edinburgh because of the thistle.....and if you squint your eyes just so you can make out the proper castle...:-) Could be Newcastle? I haven't searched those marks... |
- Posted by antiquesilver (My Page) on Mon, Mar 19, 12 at 17:00
Linda, Can you confirm that the mark is actually a Queen's head? We should be seeing the left side of her profile but no matter how I look at it, I just don't see it but IRL, it may be clearer. |
I can't "confirm" a thing.... I have clicked back and forth several times with pictures of the marks and the I.D. site....and it can't possibly be a monarch's head.....the cartouche is wrong. Could the spoon be after 1890 when the monarch's head was no longer included? |

text: Hilo sees cruise ships coming in and out on a nearly daily basis, it seems. However, the cruise ships that I see are almost always from the Norwegian Cruise Line. Recently, I saw a new ship — the Queen Victoria of the Cunard Line. The Queen Victoria is a beautiful ship that first launched in 2007. It cost about 270 million pounds (434 million dollars) to build, and holds over 2,000 passengers. It includes such amenities as a spa, a theater and several high-end restaurants.

WorkLife Law is Studying How Gender Bias Differs by Race
With generous support from the National Science Foundation, WorkLife Law has studied how gender bias differs by race through interviews of women of color in STEM (science, technology, math, and engineering) who work in academia. WLL seeks to expand this research on the "double jeopardy" faced by women of color in other industries.
About the NSF Tools for Change in STEM Project
Two factors have stalled women's advancement in science: implicit bias and lack of family friendly policies. Mary Ann Mason, UC Berkeley and Joan C. Williams, UC Hastings have engaged in more than 20 years of original research to determine when and why women drop out of the pipeline and to develop tools to help universities retain women scientists.
Under their current ADVANCE PAID grant, they have partnered with AWIS to develop their research into a series of highly usable, polished 15-minute online workshops for use with different audiences (e.g. department chairs, university administrators, new faculty, campus women's groups). Included are The Competitive Edge: Best Practices for Family Friendly Policies (for university administrators), Building an Excellent Department in an Era of Tight Budgets: It's Cheaper to Keep Her (for department chairs), Do Babies Matter? (for all groups), Some Things Are Illegal (for department chairs, administrators, and compliance officers), and What Works for Women At Work (a novel approach that links an implicit bias training with concrete strategies to help women navigate workplaces shaped by subtle bias).

WLL seeks to expand this research on the "double jeopardy" faced by women of color in other industries, including law and business. Stay tuned.

Child Fatality Review Origins of Child Fatality Review in Texas In Texas, more than 4000 children, between the ages of birth and 17, die annually. Prior to 1995, apart from death certificate data collected through the Texas Bureau of Vital Statistics, no single agency tracked or assessed all of the child deaths in the state. In response, in 1994, Texas applied for and received grant funding through the Childrens Justice Act Grant (CJA), to underwrite a Child Fatality Review Team Project. The United States Congress passed the CJA legislation in 1986 with funding derived from a mandatory diversion of 4.5% of all fines paid by federal offenders, which was provided to the states for the purpose of improving the handling of child abuse, neglect, and maltreatment cases. CJA began supporting efforts to develop multi-disciplinary, multi-agency child fatality review in Texas in 1992, and in 1994 formed a statewide committee to review the child death response system and make recommendations to the legislature. Texas Governor, George W. Bush, signed the legislation and the Child Fatality Review Team statute went into effect on September 1, 1995. Titled as Child Fatality Review and Investigation, the child fatality review team law is located in the Texas Family Code, Title 5, Chapter 264, Subchapter F, §264.501 §264.515 of the statute, and was administered initially through the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services. In the 79th Legislative session, Senate Bill 6, an amendment to the existing code, was passed, transferring responsibility for the support and coordination of the Texas Child Fatality Review Team Committee (CFRTC) and all local Child Fatality Review Teams (CFRT) to the Texas Department of State Health Services. The State Committee, or CFRTC, is a multi-disciplinary group of professionals selected from across the state with a membership reflecting the geographical, cultural, racial, and ethnic diversity of the state §264.502 (d), and has a tripartite purpose:
Local CFRTs mirror the format of the CFRTC through death reviews on the local level utilizing the public health model. Reviewing local child deaths and the associated circumstances allows teams to identify community trends, develop prevention strategies, and promote public awareness while enhancing investigative findings through improved inter-agency collaboration. In Texas, CFRTs complete a retrospective review of all sudden and unexpected deaths of children under the age of 18, with the criteria for case acceptance varying by team based on local needs and resources.
A primary reason for the development and utilization of local child fatality review teams is to identify and prevent child deaths caused by abuse and neglect. Texas has broadened the scope of review to include all preventable child deaths, with a focus on the public health perspective. In the mid-1990s, Texas led the country in child abuse and neglect-related fatalities, and was also identified as having poor social conditions associated with child health and safety (e.g., poverty, unemployment, poor education, violence, lack of available health care, teen pregnancy, and a large minority population). Child fatality review in Texas was established to address preventable deaths associated with those societal issues.
Texas first local review team was started in Dallas in 1992 through a one-year-duration pilot project funded by CJA and administered by the Texas Department of Protective and Regulatory Service (TDPRS). The Tarrant County Child Fatality Review Team (CFRT) was the second team in the state to participate in the pilot project and receive CJA funding; organized in 1992, the team began reviewing child deaths in 1993. In 2008, there were 53 operating child fatality review teams in Texas, most of which are hosted by hospitals, child advocacy centers, and law enforcement agencies. Tarrant County CFRT, partnered with the Denton and Parker County components of the Tarrant County Medical Examiner District, reviews deaths from those three jurisdictions. Ten purposes of a CFRT have been identified by the CFRTC:

UPDATED: A Texas court has enjoined Albania from advertising oil blocks in the country to potential contractors until it has engaged in UNCITRAL investment treaty arbitration with a US oil and gas company that claims it already has rights to the blocks.
The US District Court for the Western District of Texas ordered the state's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Energy and National Agency of Natural Resources to refrain from awarding, transferring or disposing of any rights to the contested oil blocks until a final award has been issued in the arbitration commenced by the US's Sky Petroleum in December.
It also ordered that they should remove all references to the blocks being "free" on their websites and other public documents...
Counsel to Sky Petroleum: Haynes and Boone - Partner Shashe Dimitroff in Houston with Partner Hal Sanders and associates Leslie Thorne and Adam Hugh Sencenbaugh in Austin.

Angelista? Who the heck is that? {WoW}
Mar 23rd 2008 1:39PM Since I've found that Boutique in Stratholme, and saw BWL drop for the first time, I always wondered who she is :) Being unable to answer this question, I decided that she is some epic goods vendor in Strat, sad thing - in new CoT instance, she is gonna be undead boss probably. dropping some blues and maybe epics on heroic mode. what a waste...
The great Panda debate {WoW}
Mar 10th 2008 11:08AM the changes done to the undead models in chineese version of the game, weren't purely cosmetic. the actual models geometry was atlered, and so their skins.
with pandas, however, it can be done by changing basic skin (the one before clothes applied to the model), from white/black fur to something else. as a result you will get humanoid bear and noone in china would be able to say that blizzard somehow twisted their pandas.
also, note, that so far, pandas was merely a joke started as a personal drawing. if blizzard decide to make them official, they might as well work out the design needed to make china public accept them.
personally, i believe that pandas not in the game so far, because there is no place them. both geographically and lorewise. TBC is about draenei and blood elves, WotLK is about Arthas and deathknights stuff. nothing for panda interest :) but if next expansion gonna be about south seas, i think it will be a great chance to see them as playable race. i mean - pirates, adventures, uncharted lands, all the cool stuff.
Do summoning stones need neutral guards? {WoW}
Dec 26th 2007 6:24PM While leveling on PvP, at some point I accepted the fact that I can be killed anytime, almost anywhere, and tbh without any reason. Just because some jerk desided to make some fun at my expense. Whatever. Now I'm lvl70 and its all the same, because being a protection warrior have only one benefit - you've got alot of HPs, which only takes that uberleet rogue longer time to kill you.
Ganking itself kinda rare tho, due to the fact that most of my time I'm spending inside instances and there is no opposing faction :)
Having said that, I however do not think that guards will help. And therefore there is no reason to add them. This is because problem lies somewhere else and that is simple fact - PvP in WoW is completely rudimentary and useless.
You saying that conquering a meeting stone can be important, - goal for people to play on PvP. Then let me ask:
What exactly do you think you will achieve by holding meeting stone?
The question is rhetorical, I'll answer myself - first, you will piss off many many people, but eventually they will enter that instance one way or another. So you're not really changing the world here. Just being a jerk, nothing less nothing more. And second, do you came to hold the stone, or do you came to run the instance? Because I came to run the instance and don't really care about your pity PvP rivalries. And if you came to hold the stone then you may just admit that you like to be a jerk, because gameplay wise you're not really doing anything important.
Forget the stone, you can even kill Bolvar or Thrall (or any other important NPC) all day long and this will change absolutely NOTHING. Again, you'll just piss many people off, who wouldn't be able to interact with them. So this is the truly worthy reason to play on PvP server?? lol.
I'm playing Alliance, and Horde members like to call us puny carebears (that I'm sure happens on many realms, sometimes factions can switch roles, but not the point). But at least we're being honest about what we want and what the do. Unlike bunch of jerks, who meet us every day near Karazhan meeting stone, and attack (if and only) they're larger in numbers. Oh, yes - they call themselves mighty hordes.. then again, just to clarify, - it's not really faction related.
ps/ frequent use of a 'jerk' word is not intended, I just can't think of any softer, printable synonym, when speaking about these people.
pps/ whose of you, who read this and want to make comment about rerolling on PvE, or ask me why I'm playing on PvP... well it's not really important why I'm playing on PvP, read it again - it's not about QQ, it's about the fact that I DO NOT have any reason to fight back horde or alliance, when I came to run the instance.
Officers' Quarters: Reinforcements {WoW}
Oct 22nd 2007 3:33PM I'm currently recruiting people for my guild in 60-70 level range, for sole purpose to spend some time with them leveling, to know them better, who and what they are. I must say it was right thing to do, but as we getting closer to 70, it becomes obvious that soon enough we will need to take only lvl70 players, and Kara key is one of my primary concerns. I don't worry for myself, not to mention that few people to whom I trust already got their keys.
Personally I don't mind to help people to get their keys, but as a GM I'm concerned that once they get it, they may leave to another guild that already have Kara on farm. A lot of guilds right now on my server recruiting, and two things they require is lvl70 and Kara key. And they have progress sometimes much further than we currently can dream of. So as you can see, helping people to get their key can be tricky cuz tbh, loyalty isn't something I've seen much in WoW. Btw, everytime I see recruitment messages in channels or on forums, the MINIMUM is lvl70 and Kara key, often they need key to heroics as well.
So if helping your people to getting kara key isn't even a question for several persons posted above, why guilds have such requirements and what should I do?
Details on the new minimap tracking system {WoW}
Oct 21st 2007 10:49AM @13, tbh, I don't care for their 'ty', as long as they ask politely. Point is - I've helped someone, I've got one more player to play with, sometime in future. Maybe not, but hey, there is always a chance, and I consider that as good enough reason to help people, even if they don't thank you for that.
Lately, very often I see how people unfamiliar with alliance/horde side, or just the game itself, asking 'noob' questions in /1 and most of the time they're getting stupid jokes, laugh, or misleading comments. I think it's cruel, so personally I'm glad to see these changes coming, even tho I don't need them myself.
/ps and no, this is not realm issue, this is people issue, and it's not even WoW-unique. seen this on boards too.
Details on the new minimap tracking system {WoW}
Oct 21st 2007 4:50AM @9, I believe this is not their intention to stuck us in the end game grind. You see, for veteran players it's doesn't matter, because they either know all thats necessary to level their alts, or just don't care, rushing forward, to play new content. For newcomers, these changes will be VERY important, because all the people who can guide them, will be progressing through NEW content such as WotLK.
I've already seen this 'elite' public.. They level their characters either with help of their high level guildies or friends, or, if they can't get such help, they go to their main, until some friends log in. Newbies are not welcome, and its really rare when someone cares to explain to them gameplay basics, what is addons and how to use them, NPC locations, etc..

GMC Safari/Chevy Astro Transmission Problem
canuheminow Posts: 1I have a 97 astro van (2 wheel drive ) that started leaking fluid from where the cooling lines go into the radiator. I had to drive the car so I kept on adding fluid to it so it didn't run out. I only had to drive it a short distance but in that time it started it started to slip. There is so much fluid all over there front of the engine and front suspension that its hard to see where its actually leaking from. The upper line is clean so I figure its the lower line. How do I fix this? Do I need to replace the entire line? did I mess up the trans by running it and if so is that an easy fix? I dont have alot of $ right now and need this van for transportation. Any help would be greatly appreciated
spike99 Posts: 239Like most 2 x hoses in the same location (especially of older age), when one blows, the other one blows soon after. With this in mind, if you replace 1 hose, I would replace both. Especially if you plan to keep your van longer.
To clean the oil off the eninge / transmission, do investigae GUNK. I use this stuff on my motors and it works great. re: http://www.gunk.com/prod_photo.asp
Hope this helps...

squirrel69 Posts: 1i have a 2001 chevy astro all wheel drive with 151000 miles on it in June driving from my parents house came to a stop sign went to take off the van would not go. tried twice then tranny let out two big bangs then it took off, going down the road the tranny shifted funny and it would not go into overdrive, i got it home and went to leave with it, it had lost reverse. so i called my tranny shop and they said the valve body went. they quoted me $1800.00 to $2000 to rebuild w/a 12month/ 12000 mile warranty. to let you all know don,t do it. i found a place out of Arizona on ebay that sells brand new rebuilds for $625. The tranny is dyno tested and comes w/ a 2 year warranty and unlimited miles. I have read all this people who have spent big time money having them rebuilt and still having problems, I had this tranny shipped right to my tranny shop and had them put it in for $600.00 and got a year warranty on their work Overall i"m very pleased with the work and I got my van back quick When you buy the tranny they recommend you change the torque convert too or they won't warranty the tranny cost of $175.00. They charge shipping fee depends on where you live, mine was $400.00. The shipping is two ways. To your door step and then to ship core back to them. Overall it cost me for everything $1800.00 but was worth every penny. I would do it this way again before i would go to the dealer or have a tranny shop rebuild one..... I'm a mechanic of 25 years and didn't have the time to do it myself, just became a truck driver, better pay !!!. If i was going to do it myself I would still go to this place and get the tranny you are not going to get a better price or warranty.. Call them at 1-888-996-6378... They will work with you to the tee.... They do trannys for all vehicles not just Astros

In my early 20s, I wore size 24 jeans and my enormous boobs demanded an H-cup bra, a letter no woman should have to associate with lingerie sizing. I couldn't fit into restaurant booths or through the subway turnstile. I even once held up an entire roller coaster ride at Six Flags so I could get back onto the platform when the seat belt wouldn't buckle around me — a character-building experience to say the least. I'd dropped out of college, didn't have any job prospects and I was in a serious romantic relationship with a man who was actually gay (and a little nuts). It was a dark, lonely time in my life mired in lots of bong-hitting and double-cheeseburgering.
After surprising myself by punching said gay boyfriend in the mouth one night during a screaming match (to which he responded by pulling my hair for 20 minutes – so gay!), I met my own ugly rock bottom. What came next was a brief stint as a homeless, fat girl living out of her Honda. There was, as they say, nowhere else to go but up. Keep reading »

- ensure no one facing cancer is alone by offering compassionate services and support to those living with cancer and their families and friends
- empower Canadians with information about cancer to help them make informed choices about their health
Did you know?
- Cancer is the leading cause of premature death in Canada.
- The number of new cancer cases will increase by approximately 60% over the next 20 years due to our aging and growing population.
- But with your help, the cancer death rate is dropping - nearly 100,000 lives were saved in Canada between 1988 and 2007.
- The Canadian Cancer Society is the largest charitable funder of cancer research in Canada. Last year, the Canadian Cancer Society invested $46 million in cancer research, supporting the best cancer scientists across Canada.

How to Make Yourself Happier by Clearing Your Closet.
A few days ago, I was helping a friend clear out her closet (helping friends clear their clutter is one of my few hobbies), and I made a new observation about the nature of clutter. This seems counter-intuitive, but it makes sense: people uninterested in clothes (like me and my friend) are more likely to have clothes clutter than people who love clothes. Why?
First of all, "clutter" is stuff that you don't like or don't use. So people who love clothes may have bursting closets, but because they love the clothes they have, it doesn't feel like "clutter."
Also, at least among my friends, people who love clothes tend to be scrupulous about weeding out clothes that don't work. They love to maintain a highly edited collection of clothes, and they keep only things that look good, are useful, and are in great shape. Or people who love their clothes less ruthlessly may have packed closets and drawers, but revel in the abundance.
On the other hand, people who aren't interested in clothes – like me – can get overwhelmed by clothes clutter.
They can't be bothered to make decisions like "That pair of brown pants is nicer than this pair of brown pants, so I'll get rid of this pair," or "This sweater is looking pretty tired, so I'll retire it."
Because such folks often hate to shop (again, this is me, unless I go with my mother – I'm an under-buyer), they dread the possibility of having to run out and buy something for a particular occasion. So they refuse to let go of any stitch of clothing, for fear that some circumstance will arise when they'll need it.
People who love clothes have less clutter, too, because they enjoy thinking of different ways to wear their clothes; they get more use out of their clothes. People who don't like clothes don't spend any time thinking about them, so don't realize that there's a way to use that black sweater or those corduroy pants – and because those clothes aren't worn, they turn into clutter.
People who don't like clothes tend to feel easily oppressed by them. So if the clutter is making you blue, take action! Free up some space in your closet – and in your mind. One of my Secrets of Adulthood is "Outer order contributes to inner calm."
The days are long, but the years are short.

Scientists living under an oppressive regime decide to clinically study the founders and supporters of evil regimes to determine what common factor is at play in the rise and propagation of man's inhumanity to man.
...that almost ~ at least a 100 million people on the Planet PRAYED for a smooth transition is PROOF of the change that has taken place......or did not take place! E.g when you do a Tarot reading you are given option ~ if you continue on this path you will get sick ~ but then after the reading you make the changes and YOU don't get sick....was the reading WRONG or did you choose your own reality by changing a predictive path thru freewill........"The best way to avoid a trap is knowing it exist" ~ Bene Geserit Mantra ~ Dune.
uh, er, well, there is no factual evidence in your comment that "100 million people on the planet PRAYED" at all, and, therefore, there is no PROOF that any change has taken place.
Your comment makes no sense at all. And, therein lies the rub. I take your non-sensical post as a piece of evidence that there is, indeed, no sense at all at this time.
Thanks for elucidating that state of being.
i believe the truly spiritual to be liberated from the need of reliance or influence.
Thank you. In the Tao, one must never be susceptible to either flattery nor vitriol. We remain in a state of equipoise, not matter what may come at us. As you state, true internal spirituality depends not on external influence or reliance. Truth lies within and requires no external sources of validation.
This type of internal truth with out objective external validation created "My truth" and 'Your Truth " that is basis of all mass murders in the history and present. Worse , it created self calming , blind lead blind scenario , thus the evil to flourish. The subconscious ( adaptive unconscious) that religions so hooked on is not as sacrosanct as it was projected . You may want to read works of Timothy D. Wilson "Strangers to Our selves"

PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- A convicted felon has been indicted in the July carjacking of a woman and her 4-year-old daughter outside an Aldi supermarket in Smith Hill.
Steven G. Carrion, 35, had been out on bail on charges of robbing multiple stores last winter when he allegedly dragged a woman out of her car on July 1. The woman fought to get her daughter out of the back seat, just as the robber drove away.
The stolen Toyota was found in the city's West End two days later. Providence detectives tracked down Carrion two weeks later.
A Providence County grand jury indicted Carrion on Thursday on a first-degree robbery charge. He's expected to be arraigned on Oct. 30 in Superior Court.

Earl Simmons, the rapper better known as DMX, has been arrested in Miami, Fla. by the FBI, one day after the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office issued a warrant for his arrest.
Simmons, 37, of Cave Creek, had failed to appear in Maricopa County Superior Court and is facing charges of drug possession, identity theft and animal cruelty, according to the sheriff's office.
He has been arrested at least five times by the sheriff's deputies, and will be extradited to Phoenix.
The county sheriff's office offered a $5,000 reward for information leading up to Simmons' arrest, but it wasn't immediately known if anyone would receive the reward.

KATE Cooper was 20 years old when she was diagnosed with endometriosis.
In the last seven years she has endured 13 operations including a full hysterectomy the day after her 23rd birthday.
Endometriosis affects one in 10 Australian women and occurs when the tissue that normally lines the uterus grows outside the uterus, commonly on the fallopian tubes, ovaries and tissue lining the pelvis.
Extreme and chronic pain is the most common symptom, while 30 per cent of women with infertility issues have endometriosis.
More and more women are affected by the disease every year but Kate says due to the stigma attached to 'women's troubles' it is still rarely discussed.
"Statistics almost guarantee that if you're a woman you will either suffer from this or know someone you love who does," she said.
"But endometriosis is still somewhat of a taboo subject and that needs to change."

Miter Saw Acute Angle Jig
by bricofleur
Friday, May 14, 2010
I've been thinking about making this jig for years. Since nice weather has arrived I have to make a picket fence. All slats will end to a sharp point, meaning I have to cut them at an acute angle. I used to do that on the tablesaw but each time...

No More Tipping Trim Router
by bricofleur
Monday, July 27, 2009
Trim routers are great tools, but the base is so narrow that they have the tendancy to tip over when milling edges. While one hand holds the router itself and steers, there is not much room to grab the tool with the other hand to hold it flat. And when...
Twin Kitchen Hutches #56
by bricofleur
Wednesday, February 10, 2010
I roughly cut the top shelves of the hutches. I'm ripping strips to make the moldings to fill the underside of the top shelves. To stay on the safe side for the router table, I rip them wider than required. I install a 1/2'' roundover...
Making a Router Pattern Guide
by bricofleur
Sunday, May 17, 2009

Twin Kitchen Hutches #50
by bricofleur
Sunday, January 10, 2010
I install the face frames on the upper hutches to mark for the biscuits. To do so, I use a block of wood to align the lower ends. I'm using bar clamps to temporarily set the face frames and get a small T-square and a pencil. At each 8-10 inches...
Twin Kitchen Hutches #38
by bricofleur
Saturday, November 14, 2009
I am ready to rip the stiles for the two face frames. Since my boards are long, I'm using a featherboard for uniformity as well as safety. The outfeed table behind the tablesaw is essential here. By cutting the stiles together, I'm sure they...

Born in Ferrara, Michele de Lucchi studied in Padua and in Florence, Italy, where he graduated in architecture in 1975. After completing his studies architecture, his friendship with Ettore Sottsass and Alessandro Mendini took him to Milan at the end of the Seventies, where he became one of the main activists in the provocative designer group Memphis. His approach to the creation of new styles in design helped to play an important role in the Memphis movement, but by the late 1980's, de Lucchi had moved on to more traditional designs. After working with Artemide to develop some of their lasting bestsellers, de Lucchi created his Produzione Privata label, which creates small series of his designs featuring exquisite craftsmanship.

He holds a degree in mechanical engineering from the University of Applied Science Weingarten. After graduating, he continued his education and received a degree in integral design at the SADK Stuttgart. In 1997 Michele De Lucchi invited him to work with him in Milan as a project manager in Studio De Lucchi. While he worked he laid the foundations for his own studio, Reichert-Design. In 2004 he was appointed Professor for Design at the University of Applied Science Aachen and in 2007 he accepted the offer for a professorship at the University of Applied Science Schwäbisch Gmünd. His expertise is design in complex global contexts and alternate branches of industry and markets such as office furniture, interiors, lamps and industrial and medical products. He has collaborated with national and international companies such as Artemide, AAT, ALS, Brunner, iGuzzini, Interstuhl, Koleksiyon, Leifheit, and Molteni.

LEGO City Undercover - Review
Nintendo's heritage is unquestionable, but some of its franchise updates in recent years have been spottier in execution than we used to see. Numerous Mario games have come and gone and have been surprisingly easy to ignore, which is something I would have been beaten up for predicting in the playground 20 years ago, and the plumber's not the only one guilty of blotting his copybook with weaker instalments. Still, thanks to games like LEGO City Undercover, Nintendo's hardware remains a great place to go for the kind of experience Nintendo's fans used to expect on a regular basis.…
