DES MOINES, Iowa - It has been a busy day for the Rick Santorum campaign, which reeled in two endorsements for the former Pennsylvania senator that he can tout on the campaign trail in the last two weeks before the Iowa caucuses.
Sioux City talk-show host Sam Clovis is backing Santorum, the first time he has endorsed a candidate in the caucuses. He has a popular conservative radio show on KSCJ, an ABC News affiliate.
Clovis said in a statement that his listeners were "always asking me who I will be supporting in the upcoming caucuses" and "it's time to take a stand and let people know."
He said he's supporting Santorum because he is an "ideal candidate" who believes in "a constitutionally limited government, fiscal responsibility, strong national defense and unflagging devotion to life and traditional marriage."
Clovis had Rep. Michele Bachmann on his show Friday. The two spoke about Rep Ron Paul's comments on Iran at Thursday night's Fox News debate in Sioux City and Bachmann called them "disqualifying."
Santorum said in a release that Clovis' support in the GOP presidential race is a "terrific boon to our campaign and an honor to receive. The momentum continues building for us, and I am thrilled to have Sam as part of our team as we put our plan to win the Iowa caucuses into action."
The campaign also received the backing of a more unexpected endorser, bestselling thriller author Brad Thor. He is a successful writer who also does some conservative commentating. Thor said in a statement that Santorum is the "one presidential candidate who understands and can swiftly address the threats facing our nation."
"Rick knows that the world would be forever changed by Iran getting a nuclear weapon, and he has sworn to keep this from happening. I am excited to add my endorsement to the growing list of prominent supporters who understand that Rick Santorum is the right man, at the right time to lead our nation," Thor said.
Santorum has also received the backing recently of the state's secretary of state, Matt Schultz, and several high-profile Iowa pastors. He has barnstormed the state for months running the most traditional Iowa campaign, but has yet to shoot up in the polls or enjoy the kind of boomlet the other candidates have experienced.
Such high-profile endorsements are more fodder for both Santorum and his campaign to make the claim that the momentum continues to build in the state so he can sell electability to still-undecided caucus goers.

An effort to rename the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge for a retired U.S. Court of Appeals judge and former U.S. senator from New York is causing consternation among area environmentalists and a new front in the political battle between Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) and one of her potential challengers, Rep. Bob Turner (R-Queens, Brooklyn).
Turner is backing an effort to rename the refuge, an important bird sanctuary and part of the Gateway National Recreation Area, for James Buckley, who served as U.S. senator from 1971 through 1977 and held several other positions in the federal government.
As senator, Buckley was a cosponsor of the bill that created Gateway.
The idea went public in an April 26 letter to the media, which was published in the Queens Chronicle, written by Herb Stupp, a former commissioner of the city Department for the Aging, and Thomas Long, a member of Community Board 14 in the Rockaways. Stupp and Long live in Breezy Point, the far western Rockaway community where Turner also lives.
"As a candidate for U.S. Senate in 1970, Jim Buckley questioned the wisdom of a proposed extension of a JFK airport runway into Jamaica Bay, supporting local community groups," Stupp and Long said in part. "Although Buckley was known for his conservative views on most issues, many liberals and Democrats acknowledged his expertise in and support for conservation and environmental issues."
Buckley is the brother of the late William F. Buckley Jr., considered the father of modern American conservatism and a one-time candidate for mayor of New York City.
But the proposal to rename the sanctuary the "James L. Buckley/Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge" only caught widespread attention in recent days, as Turner gave it his backing, asking people to sign a petition in support.
Turner also asked Gillibrand to back the effort in the Senate, but she declined. Turner is one of several Republicans running in the June 26 primary to oppose Gillibrand in November. Some critics see politics in Turner's support for the renaming.
Area environmentalists are opposed to the proposal, believing the name should stay as it is.
"The American Littoral Society and the environmental community at large opposes any name change to the refuge," said Don Riepe of Broad Channel, executive director of the society's northeast chapter, which helps maintain the bay by performing regular cleanups. "This was done without any discussion, and none of us have heard of Sen. Buckley until now."
Riepe continued, "Maybe he was an original cosponsor, but we haven't heard anything from him in 40 years. Usually for a wildlife refuge renaming you have to be involved. Also, it's known nationally and internationally as the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge."
Asked if there is anyone for whom he would support renaming the bay, Riepe said the only possibility would be Herbert Johnson, the bay's first manager.
"He literally built it from scratch," Riepe said. But, he added, he still would prefer the name stay as is.
Turner issued a statement Wednesday blasting Gillibrand for not supporting the idea, noting that she now holds the Senate seat Buckley held in the '70s, that nothing in the state is named for him, and claiming that she would back the move if he were a liberal Democrat.

2 ISAF interpreters shot dead by insurgents
2 ISAF interpreters shot dead by insurgents
PUL-I-ALAM (PAN): Two Afghan interpreters with foreign troops were killed by the Taliban in Pul-i-Alam, the capital of central Logar province, on Wednesday, an official said.
The interpreters were shot dead after being forced down from their car in Porak area on the Kabul-Gardez highway at around 8 am, the deputy police chief said.
Col. Rais Khan Sadiq told Pajhwok Afghan News the victims from Mohammad Agha district were acting as translators on ISAF's Shinak Camp in Padkhwab area.
Sadiq said the victims' bodies were shifted to the police headquarters and their families informed about the incident.
Witness Rahimullah said the Taliban were searched vehicles on the highway for an hour. He believed the fighters had prior information about the translators' travel to Pul-i-Alam from Kabul.

The Queue: Wrath's current raids and their difficulty {WoW}
Nov 18th 2008 1:52PM I think some raid content should be accessible to
@hold up
The people who cleared the content were the cream of the crop of min-maxers and experienced raiders. What they didn't tell you was just how long they spent in beta practicing to clear it so fast. They've been through the content multiple times already in beta and honed their strategies. They had Sunwell gear, which wasn't all that short of the gear we're expected to have when we start raids at level 80.
It's not going to be super easy. We'll still have to work on it, like they did in for those months in beta.
Maybe a little of the raiding content is like training wheels, but we had issues in BC with newer players because there were no training wheels. We had UBRS back in vanilla WoW and could run people through there to get them used to being in larger groups, using addons, following a kill call, and general raid protocol, all in an easy and fun environment. I think that we should have at least one easy raid instance for this purpose. There are a lot of people who have never raided who aren't bad players, just new, and it's just not feasible to drop them into the middle of a difficult raid because it hurts the rest of the group. That happened with Karazhan pretty often.
I think that we need to wait for more reports before passing judgment on the content difficulty.
Neopets creators reveal monster taming MMO Twin Skies {Joystiq}
Jul 26th 2008 10:33PM Oh for goodness' sake!
The author needs to get his facts straight. It's not a monster-taming MMO. It's a sci-fi/fantasy MMO. Just because each character has the ability to pick a little pet like a puppy or a piglet doesn't mean it's a Pokemon redux.
Get your facts straight, please.

In a lot of regions they call a large one-story home a "rambler", meaning that is rambles all over the place, I guess. Your house is a post-war ranch/rambler built with a nod to a pre-war "English cottage" style. English cottages were generally fronted with several differently-shaped gables to add interest, but your gables seem to be all of the same pitch (slope). The highest style cottages blended wood, brick and stone surfaces, and some even had roofs elaborately done up with curved shingles to emulate thatched roofing. I'm afraid that I have to say yours is pretty much "watered-down" style wise, not to say that it can't have more curb appeal. Plantings and a picket fence might add some interest. Paneled shutters with decorative cutouts are another period-appropriate dress-up element. The English themes were not usually carried into the interiors. Occasionally tudor arches were introduced between rooms, a pair of simple stained glass windows would flank a brick fireplace, and one room may have had a "beamed" ceiling. That was about it; doors and moldings were typical of the period; thinner, plainer moldings carried the day. Casey |
Thank you so much for the information. I should have given a little more info regarding the house. It was built by a local family in 1945 and then sold to the Catholic Church that is across the street and used as a Convent and then the parish rectory from 1963-2009. During that time the old 2 stall garage was converted to a chapel with stained glass windows, altar, and pews. The house is now in a giant U shape, approx.3000 sp/ft. Needless to say since the parish took over many many diffent styles were added to it, at the whim of whomever was working on it. We have a small galley kitchen that needs to be done and my husband and I are tring to decide how to best to accomplish it. I want to knock walls down he says no. Do you know any good places that I can get ideas of what to do? Thanks!! |

I'd call it a modified/expanded bungalow. I've always thought of a rambler as a ranch-style one-story house. Maybe what you have is a cross between the two--it certainly does ramble nicely. About.com has a pretty good section on styles of houses. http://architecture.about.com/od/periodsstyles/ig/House-Styles/ Unfortunatly most older homes have been modified enough to make them hard to categorize. |
- Posted by sombreuil_mongrel (My Page) on Sat, Jan 29, 11 at 11:38
Bungalows have some form of prominent overhangs/eaves and a low-pitched sheltering roof. This is neither, it's more a cape/english ranch/cottage. Casey |

Cottage Living magazine, now defunct, has a lot of photos up on the web. Some of their articles may apply to your situation; I remember seeing some houses featured that had elements of yours, and the makeovers were done in a classic way. They'll have some exterior inspiration photos, while I'm not sure you'll find much exterior stuff at houzz.com, the other site I'd recommend, since it focuses on interiors. And if you want to do anything to your kitchen, browse the kitchens forum here on gardenweb and post some questions. There are some dedicated and talented posters over there that will love to read about your kitchen dreams and get you pointed in the right direction. Looking at your pictures, I think your house is lovely. Being in the great plains, the absence of tall trees in the neighborhood throws me off. Is there anything that gets tall that you can plant on your lot, maybe twin sentinels in your front yard? Ask liriodendron on this forum, he/she might have some good suggestions for trees that are appropriate for your area. I like cottonwoods (I remember seeing a lot when I worked in IA and SD) but I believe they prefer to be along a river. I like that it has substantial windows and roof pitch; so many later ranches had anemic or too strongly horizontal windows and a shallow pitch, for my taste. The red brick and white trim look is classic. Other colors would also complement the brick, but unless you hate the white I'd put painting pretty far down the list. The white gable on the left is begging for something, perhaps a demilune vent like the other gable has, or even a window. But I would be careful to keep it smallish and not too ornate; you want it to blend in with the house and break up that large gable, but not become a focal point in itself. |

Relative Motion and the Twin Paradox
Name: Unknown Status: N/A Age: N/A Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: Around 1993
Why does one twin age more slowly in the famous "twins paradox"?
Well, That is the whole point of the paradox! From the point of view of the twin who is in the space ship, that is exactly what happens. However, everything breaks down if the twin in the space ship decides to slow down, turn around, and come back and visit his twin back on earth. During that deceleration and turning phase, he suddenly sees his twin on earth get older and older and older, while he does not age much at all. Actually, motion in our universe really is not all that relative. Position is relative, and different positions in our universe have different average velocities of all the matter in that area (the velocity of the Hubble expansion), so if you think about the physical universe, relativity seems a little less than obvious.

Okay, this is getting *really* annoying. After I make a post, either a new topic or a reply to an existing topic, it goes AAAALLLLLL the way back to the beginning of the forum. I have to remember which forum group I was in, then scroll down to the specific forum, then through a page or two depending, just to get back to where I was before the reply. It's *extremely* annoying. Most forums give you the option to either continue to the topic you were just on, or return to the forum you were just on (not go two levels higher).
Any way we can make that happen with this forum?

Pisces horoscope February 20 – March 20
Pisces is the fish zodiac sign which associated with love and trust; they will believe their friends, in good life and of course in spiritualism. They feel that every person on earth is somehow connected to another person, this give them a special psychic view when they are looking on the big picture. You trust their advices and they will help you to reach out and meet new people.
They are very emotional and you can see it on their eyes, their soul is so fragile and when someone hurt them they can be very sad an upset. They want to be themselves and express it in artistic way, the career is not very important for them and they don't mind to move from place to place as long as they will find the right way to live as they wish.
The big struggle of Pisces is to find their shining path in life. Sometimes they are too good in many professions that make them confused in which way they should go. If they don't find it then they might fall down and be lonely. They know how to guide others in spiritual journey but it is very hard for them to help themselves in this task.
Making a decision is also hard for them but the good side of it is that they are very flexible to any change that might pop up in their lives. They have to make reality check every once in a while because the real life is not always easy, and cruel decisions will have to be made along the way. They are very romantic is fairy tales style and will stick to relationship even if it's not good for them. They forgive and forget very easily and this makes them very vulnerable because some might use it for his or her needs.

Street-legal Cozy Coupe Doesn't Look too Cozy
When my son was really small I probably pushed him 1000 miles in his red and yellow Little Tykes Cozy Coupe. I also flopped over the top of that little car a few times when the front wheels randomly stopped working at speed. If you have fond memories of these little toy cars, you might want to check out the street-legal version you can ride in now that you are grown up.
The car was made by a guy named John Bitmead. The builder says that he spent 1000 hours and about £4,000 (~$6m500 USD) on the project. The car started out as a Daewoo Matiz, has an 800cc engine inside of it and is street legal. It has a top speed of 70mph.
I don't see how this thing can actually be street legal. I wouldn't want to be in an accident in this thing, even though it has airbags. Check out the videos to see the car in action.

I am wanting to play a large game this weekend with several friends. I have never played a game with more than four planes. I have all three box sets and will recycle cards from planes that are downed. We will use some two seaters and use the B deck also. Any suggestions would be helpful.
P.S. If there is anyone out there near western Iowa that wants to get a game going let me know.

Spotlight on Amazing Community Leaders and the 2011 Presidential Citizens Medal
Last year, President Obama honored several amazing individuals from the African American Community, including Cynthia Church, for their extraordinary service. As a breast cancer survivor, Cynthia founded Sisters on a Mission, a breast cancer support network for African American women in Delaware. Learn more about Cynthia by watching her inspiring story.
To learn more about Citizen Medal recipients from the African American Community, check out the remarkable individuals below:
• Daisy Brooks has committed her life to North Chicago young mothers and their infants through Daisy's Resource and Development Center.
• Myrtle Faye Rumph has worked tirelessly to reduce gun and gang violence in her community and to change the lives of at-risk youth.
For the 2011 Presidential Citizens Medal we are asking you to look into your community and nominate those everyday heroes who have performed exemplary deeds of service, including those who have demonstrated commitment to work in their own communities or in communities farther from home, who have helped their country or their fellow citizens through one or more extraordinary act, whose service relates to solving a long-term problem, or whose efforts have had a sustained impact on others' lives and provided inspiration for others to serve. Last year, over 6,000 incredible leaders were nominated for their commitment to bettering the community. The Presidential Citizens Medal offers a chance to thank those extraordinary stewards of service from across the United States, whose work often goes unrecognized.
To find out more about the qualifications for the 2011 Citizens Medal, please review the criteria for this year's medal.

We planted this tree, an October Glory Maple, almost 5 years ago when our house was built. I know nothing about trees but a year or two ago I noticed the bark looked bad. It looks to me this year to be worse. I want some shade in my yard as soon as I can, so if this tree is not going to make it I want to plant something else. Thanks for any advice, Karen |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by dan_staley USDA 5/S 2b (My Page) on Sat, May 23, 09 at 21:58
Nice mushrooms going on there. Personally, I suggest starting over, and reading some instructions on proper planting and follow them closely. The variety is fine. Dan |
That's a very extensive, *old* wound. It happened a long time ago. It appears to be worse because the tree is trying to cover over the wound by growing new tissue from each side of the wound. As that occurs, the previously dead bark is lifted off. So it only appears worse. That said, the wound is *very* extensive. So you might consider starting over shortly instead of expending more worry on a tree which will die, break or topple before its time. |
After I looked closer, I also see that the tree is planted too deep. The telltale sign is that it enters the ground like a telephone pole. Normal is a slight outward flare at the base of the trunk. Deep planting is another reason trees fail before their time. |
- Posted by dan_staley USDA 5/S 2b (My Page) on Sat, May 23, 09 at 23:15
Deep planting is another reason trees fail before their time. And improper staking causing trunk damage. Read planting instructions carefully, please, when you plant the replacement. Dan |
- Posted by dan_staley USDA 5/S 2b (My Page) on Sat, May 23, 09 at 23:16
Oops. Hit wrong button. The too-deep planting stressed the tree and didn't allow it to properly heal the staking injuries. Dan |
I suspect a bit of weed-eater damage, too. |
- Posted by dan_staley USDA 5/S 2b (My Page) on Sun, May 24, 09 at 19:00
Yup. Or mower. Either one is likely here. Lots of stressors for the poor thing. Dan |
- Posted by ken_adrian z5 (My Page) on Sun, May 24, 09 at 19:44
not to mention a absolutely weed free lawn ..... which to me means chemicals for weeds .... which PERHAPS is interfering somehow with recovery .... IF IT WERE ME ... don loves these.. lol ... get another tree.. in the 4 foot range ... IMHO.. something better than a maple.. think oak .... and plant it 10 or 15 feet away ... in 5 years.. either the maple will recover ... or it will be ready for you to kill .. and the new oak will have a 5 year head start.. no one ever said you can only have one tree ... lol .. no clue where you are.. but proper planting time is about october for larger ball and burlap ... but smaller trees transplant easier.. cost less .. get ESTABLISHED faster.. and basically outgrow a larger tree in a 5 year period ... KEY WORD.. cost less ... tell us where you are for more specific info good luck ken |
Thanks for the advice. We never staked the tree. I'm in Western Kentucky. The major ice storm we had probably didn't help. Karen |
I saw little glimmers of hope in some of the posts above for the poor subject of this post. IMO, That tree is beyond reasonable expectations of long-term recovery. It looks like parts of the crown is already failing, and it appears that the damage reaches all the way to ground level. If it were mine, it would be gone by this evening shortly after I got home. I know it "hurts" to cut down a tree that's growing. I still have that feeling when I have to remove one, but, after it's gone, I realize that I did the right thing. It's senseless to spend the time and resources on a doomed tree when you could be growing a beautiful, healthy replacement. |

Document Type Master's Dissertation Author Theunissen, William Herman Morkel email@example.com URN etd-07152004-084708 Document Title A case-study based assessment of Agile software development Degree MSc Department Computer Science Supervisor
Advisor Name Title Prof D G Kourie Keywords
- telecommunication
- standards
- case study
- feature driven development
- crystal
- extreme programming
- agile software development
Date 2004-02-05 Availability unrestricted Abstract This study set out to determine various aspects of the agile approaches to software development. These included an investigation into the principles and practices driving these methodologies; determining the applicability of these approaches to the current software development needs; determining whether these methodologies can comply with software engineering standards (as set out for example by ISO); investigating the feasibility of these approaches for the telecommunication industry; establishing whether practitioners are reaping the benefits that are advertised by agile proponents; and attempting to discover short-comings of the agile paradigm.This dissertation examines the aforementioned issues and tries to provide answers to them. It is argued that:
Agile software development is suited to projects where the system evolves over the life cycle of the project. These methodologies are intended to seamlessly handle changing requirements. Thus, using an agile approach might provide a competitive advantage in developing e-business solutions which are tightly coupled with the business strategy and needs.
It is shown that agile methodologies can comply with software engineering standards such as ISO 12207:1995 and ISO 15288:2002. Furthermore diligent application of certain agile methodologies may result in a level 3 Capability Maturity Model (CMM) grading.
Evidence from the feedback of a case study conducted on an XP project team, supports the view that XP, and agile in general, does indeed live up to its 'promises'. However, some potential problem areas were identified that should be kept in mind when implementing these methodologies.
Finally, an in situ investigation suggests that there are a number of projects in the telecommunication industry that will benefit from the agile approach and its practices.

Peninsula Music Festival Anchors the Door County Experience
Ok, so I'm an old dog learning new tricks slowly—but I am catching on a little bit quicker: I lived in southern California for seventeen years before I visited Carmel, with or without its vaunted Bach Festival. It only took me a dozen flips of the calendar for me to get up to the Peninsula Music Festival in Fish Creek. Now this was not my first trip; I have lost track of how many times I'd visited those exquisitely quaint communities, the hamlets of fish boils and all things cherried. But I never seemed to be there when the Peninsula Music Festival was in the midst of one its three-week, nine-concert series.
But that all changed last week. I caught not one, not two, but all three of this sixty-first season's final concerts—now I might have to get up to "the Door" more than once a year.
The Festival has been under the direction of Victor Yampolsky for a number of years, but last Tuesday's program was guest-conducted by JoAnn Falletta. An associate conductor of the Milwaukee Symphony back in the 1980s, she has earned a major reputation with her work and recordings with the Buffalo Philharmonic, garnering ten Grammy nominations and a couple of wins along the way.
The program, "Crossing the Channel," was full of subtleties thanks to three French works, interrupted by a visit via the Scottish Fantasy courtesy of Max Bruch. The opening Suite from Ravel's Mother Goose immediately revealed the PMF orchestra's gift for nuance and easy response to Falletta's gentle urgings. Less overtly colorful, but no less moving, was Faure's Suite from Pelleas et Melisande.
The "channel crossing" was propelled by violinist Caroline Goulding, a pint-sized package of power and passion and fearless technique. At a glance she could pass for about fourteen years of age, but folks said she was twenty—and she handles the violin as if she was already forty. Producing a tone that ranged from seductive to brilliant on her General Kyd Stradivarius, Goulding's interaction with Falletta was a model of virtuosity placed at the service of artistic expression. A rousing standing ovation—and three sustained curtain calls—did not elicit an encore, but patrons could satisfy their desire to hear more of Goulding by purchasing her acclaimed premiere cd.
Falletta closed the night with a full-blooded romp through one more suite, this from Bizet's Carmen. My first PMF experience had, if anything, exceeded expectations: The Door County Auditorium is a semi-intimate jewel of a hall, boasting superior acoustics and seating for about 800. In this case, they appeared to be sophisticated patrons (the parking lot was quite full before show time, apprently indicating a large number of pre-concert lecture attendees). As for the orchestra, one's first impression in stylistically limited, albeit challenging repertoire, was of a group featuring top-notch winds, and strings that produced a sound of flexible sheen. The only question was: How much of this was Falletta, and how much of this was part and parcel of this summertime gig? The answer will come in part in this space tomorrow.

I'm an eighth grade teacher who loves to correct people's grammatical mistakes! My husband and I live on the seacoast of New Hampshire and we have a Springer Spaniel named Walter. We love skiing in the winter, hiking in the fall and summer, and going to the beach anytime of year!
Before I got married, my mom used to warn my fiance that I couldn't cook. And in part it was true - I despised the idea of slaving away over a hot stove (as my mom used to call "making dinner!") and so avoided pots, pans, knives, fresh ingredients, and the dials on the oven like the plague. But once my fiance and I moved in together, I realized either I learn to cook or we were going to go hungry. So I learned to cook - and realized it was not as hard as I'd always imagined. In the last few years my husband and I have ditched our former poor eating habits and learned to appreciate a myriad of new and healthy foods. And thank goodness for recipezaar - we've found so many new things to try and avoided making a weekly dinner menu that repeats itself over and over. I've even learned how to cook the occasional doggy dinner/treat for my Springer Spaniel, Walter. He loves recipezaar, too!
Some of my favorite foods include: eggplant, tempeh, mac & cheese (for my carb craving days!), flank steak, broccoli, anything with cheese!

does anyone know if they can pull my tooth because i have been up all nite with two of teeth hurting so so bad.I am on blood thinner and a aspirn a day.Can they pull them .I need help today.I am already on antibodic and pain med and nothing helps.I am in alot of pain.Thanks Judy |
Follow-Up Postings:
Judy, my dad has to take a blood thinner but he was asked not to take it for a day or so before he had back surgery. I think you may be able to not take it just for today.... ask your dentist and also your doctor who prescribes the blood thinner -- don't just take my word for it. Jen |
I might be too late - but Judy, I take blood thinners too. Ask your dentist what he recommends. They are very familiar with the situation as many folks take blood thinners. I've had dental work done with no problem. Dentists have local bleed-reduction stuff. But tooth pulling may be more bleeding than they want you to go through. Call your dentist and ask. He or she may want to check with your physician about your specifics also. |
i wanted to thank everone for their time.i turned out noone wanted to touch me unless i went in the hospital and came off blood thinner 5 days before they did any thing.i have been in LOTS of pain.So now my heart dr took me off and kept me on a aspirn and now i can start my teeth work,but i am trying to decide to try to keep my top teeth or just have them pulled and put false ones in.i have nothing but teeth aches all the time.i have several just broke off to the gum,they are very soft.one dentist told me she would if she was me just pull all that is left and use a plate [false] for the top,than my medical dr said let them replace the broken ones with a tooth that they use a screw to place in there.the brokens ares are what they call my eye teeth,or vein teeth.so i will have to decide.but i keep a tooth ache and it hurts to eat anything.seems all the nerves are on the tips of all my teeth.judy |
My husband had oral surgery and was told not to take aspirin for a few days before. |

Health Management & PolicyDual Masters Degree in BusinessMaster of Health Services Administration (M.H.S.A./MBA) and Master of Public Health and Master of Business Administration (M.P.H./MBA)The M.H.S.A./MBA or M.P.H./MBA are three-year programs offered jointly by the Department of Health Management and Policy and the School of Business Administration. They are designed for people who wish to further enhance their business skills provided through the MBA curriculum. Students in the dual degree program complete the M.H.S.A. or M.P.H. and the MBA degrees in three years, rather than the four normally required to complete each degree separately. This combined degree program is not open to students who have already earned the M.H.S.A., M.P.H. or the MBA degree. However, students who are registered in the first year of either the M.H.S.A., M.P.H. or the MBA degree programs may apply for admission to the joint program. Students admitted to the dual degree program are required to earn 45 credits in the Business School and 45 credits in the School of Public Health (see sample curricula). In their first year of study, they normally enroll in the required courses in the Business School. The second year is then devoted to required courses in the M.H.S.A. program or the M.P.H. program in the School of Public Health. In the third year, students enroll in courses in both schools. M.H.S.A./MBA and M.P.H./MBA students are expected to spend the summer months between academic years in a hospital or other health care organization as paid Administrative Interns. The faculty of the Department of Health Management and Policy assist in the placement for one of the internships, and students consult the Business School for assistance with the second internship placement. Application ProcedureStudents interested in the M.H.S.A./MBA or M.P.H./MBA must apply to, and be admitted separately, by both schools, using their respective application forms. Application to the M.H.S.A. program or the M.P.H. program in the School of Public Health is available on the School of Public Health website. To obtain application materials for the MBA, contact the School of Business Administration. Financial AssistanceStudents in the M.H.S.A./MBA or the M.P.H./MBA program must apply separately to the School of Public Health and the School of Business Administration for financial assistance. |

2008, July 01 - Redsdk becomes the first graphics middleware to get the driver certification from NVIDIA® and AMD |
What is the driver certification?
The driver certification is a Q/A (Quality Assessment) process provided both by the hardware manufacturer and Redway3d. It involves the intensive testing of rendering features as well as performance timings on many GPU (Graphics Processing Units) and driver combinations, from the professional product lines.
"As graphics drivers become more and more complex, it is key for Redway3d to ensure the rendering workflows of its rendering engine are continuously tested and validated, both in quality and performance. I am very proud to announce this new collaboration which is the result of several years of relationships with our partners and which will provide an immediate added value for all our current customers and future ones " said Lionel SCHMITT, CEO for REDWAY3D.
"The benefits of integrating the Redsdk test suite into our partners driver certification process is immediate: we get shorter release cycles and find problems earlier in the development process, saving a lot of time during the development phases. Then, this results in a greater quality for our customers.", added Renaud DEPARIS, CTO for REDWAY3D.
"AMD has considerable investment in both Engineering and Quality Engineering resources that focus on application and ISV certification for our FireGL™ Workstation Graphics Accelerator line of products. A close relationship between AMD and our ISV (Independent Software Vendors) partners enables us to offer greater performance and compatibility between our hardware and their software solutions" said Bahman Dara, WW Senior Product Marketing Manager, Professional Graphics. "The integration of the Redsdk test suite offers Redway3d customers superior graphics performance On FireGL Workstation accelerators for the professional market".

Should My Daughter Sleep in My Room After Having a Nightmare?My 6-year-old daughter has been having nightmares, and often asks to come sleep in my bed. Is that OK? Nightmares are very common for kids so it's important to keep them in perspective and not let them become too big of a deal. A little comfort from you can go a long way toward helping your daughter feel better. It's not necessary to let her come sleep in your bed or for you to sleep in her room after a nightmare. In fact, offering to let her sleep with you might send a subtle message that you don't believe she can feel safe alone. By helping her feel better and get back to sleep independently, you show confidence in her ability to tackle what she's afraid of. And that's a skill that she can lean on throughout life. Other ways to make a child feel better after a nightmare:

Angel Villalona delayed by visa problem
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- San Francisco Giants prospect Angel Villalona has had his visa delayed back home in the Dominican Republic for what the team was told are weight and health issues.
Bobby Evans, Giants vice president of baseball operations, says the club is hopeful the concerns of the U.S. Consulate in the Dominican Republic are "short-lived."
"We're hoping we'll be able to get past the delay at some point," Evans said Tuesday. "They cited health reasons and he's on a visa that's really set aside for elite athletes, which is an expectation that he's in a certain level of conditioning that would afford him that opportunity. And they didn't deem him where he should be, and yet we've been working with him the last couple of months and feel like he's awful close, so we're a little disappointed."
Villalona was charged in the September 2009 death of a 25-year-old man at a bar in his Caribbean homeland. He was freed on bond that November after the family of the deceased asked a judge to drop the case. But Villalona was also stripped of his U.S. visa at the time.
Last October, Villalona said he had dropped a lawsuit against the Giants seeking $5 million in damages after the team decided to reinstate him to its farm system. He alleged the Giants kept him on the inactive list even though he had been cleared of homicide charges. Villalona had sought back wages and punitive damages.
Now, he has a locker at Scottsdale Stadium waiting for his spring arrival -- if it happens, that is. Villalona was added to the Giants' 40-man roster in November.
He received a $2.1 million bonus when San Francisco signed him at age 16 in August 2006. It was the biggest bonus the franchise had ever given to an amateur player.
He was considered among the club's top prospects before the 2008 season and was selected for the Futures Game during All-Star festivities that year. San Francisco reportedly outbid the New York Yankees, Mets, Boston Red Sox and Seattle Mariners for Villalona.
The 6-foot-3, 200-pound slugging first baseman had drawn comparisons to Alex Rodriguez, Adrian Beltre and Wily Mo Pena. He played in 74 games for Class-A San Jose in '09, batting .267 with nine home runs and 42 RBIs.
Also Tuesday, ace Tim Lincecum did not throw as planned because he is nursing stiffness in his back. Manager Bruce Bochy doesn't consider it serious.
The two-time NL Cy Young Award winner and projected Opening Day starter played catch on flat ground on a back field before going inside for treatment. He joins fellow starter and 2011 All-Star Ryan Vogelsong as pitchers with back injuries already early in camp. Vogelsong strained his back lifting weights at home in Pennsylvania on Feb. 7 and isn't likely to throw for up to two weeks. He also spent Sunday night and Monday fighting the stomach flu.
Lincecum should be back on the mound soon.
"General stiffness. It's a pretty normal thing in spring training," Bochy said. "That's how we're looking at it right now. He played a little catch on a back field earlier and we'll see how he's feeling tomorrow. I don't see this being an issue at all. He was pretty stiff. We weren't going to push it."
Position players getting their work in Tuesday -- three days ahead of the first full-squad session -- included slugger Pablo Sandoval and second baseman Freddy Sanchez, who is returning from labrum surgery on his right shoulder and is not expected to be ready until the second week of Cactus League action next month. He also might be used as a designated hitter in some games if the opposing team agrees to that arrangement.
The Giants greatly missed having Sanchez's sure-handed glove helping turn double plays and also his reliable presence high in the batting order.
Sanchez was a key part of the 2010 World Series championship run for San Francisco, which failed to reach the playoffs last fall after finishing second in the NL West to surprising Arizona.
"He's a big part of it -- the No. 2 hitter, also a good defender out there with experience," Bochy said. "He could have softened the blow of losing a guy like Buster (Posey) because he can hit two or three hole or you can put him down in the order a little bit. We missed the bat, there's no getting around it. It caught up with us."
