MONDAY, Feb. 3, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Patients may now get their medical test results directly from the laboratory, without having to go through a doctor's office, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services announced Monday.
Updating the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988, the final rule allows labs to give patients, people designated by patients or their "personal representatives" access to completed test reports on request, the federal agency said in a news release.
"The right to access personal health information is a cornerstone of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Privacy Rule," HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said in the news release. "Information like lab results can empower patients to track their health progress, make decisions with their health care professionals and adhere to important treatment plans."
Under the HIPAA rule, patients or their representatives can see or be given a copy of the patient's protected health information, including an electronic copy. The amended rules eliminate an exception to the 1996 rule that limited patients' access to their protected health information when held by certain labs, according to the news release.
Although patients can still access test reports from their doctors, "these changes give patients a new option to obtain their test reports directly from the laboratory while maintaining strong protections for patients' privacy," the HHS said.
Requests may have to be put in writing, and the patient or representative may have to cover the cost of copying or emailing the test, the release said. Copies must be given to patients within 30 days of the request, in most cases.

You can see the final rule at the U.S. Federal Register.

Bill Walton's Final Months as a Boston Celtic
March 9, 1987
All along, the only prudent viewpoint to adopt has been "Seeing is Believing," and yesterday there finally was something to see.
Bill Walton played basketball at Hellenic College.
Specifically, Walton played some four-on-four halfcourt and some four-on- four fullcourt on a court about 75 feet long. He ran, he jumped, he passed, he rebounded, he dunked, he hooked, he sank jump shots and he appeared to be having a good time.
"I thought he looked fine," said Red Auerbach, who, along with general manager Jan Volk, monitored the proceedings carefully. "My main concern was his lateral movement, and he looked good to me. He wasn't jumping continually, but that's more of a conditioning process."
This was Day 3 of Walton's return to action. He worked out Saturday, mainly going over inside moves and doing some running. On Sunday he and a fellow (temporary) injury victim named Larry Bird worked out together. But yesterday was his first attempt at playing what could be termed "basketball" since the last few days of September.
The body on display was incredibly lean and this, too, pleased Auerbach. "One thing that surprised me," said the Cigar Smoker, "was the way he looked physically. He kept his weight down. Most athletes with an injury of that kind make the mistake of putting on weight, but he hasn't. I think he's taken some off. I've got to look at that as something upbeat."
Walton is a long way from being able to duel with the Malones, Olajuwons and Abdul-Jabbars of the world, however. "I saw him on Saturday," said Greg Kite, against whom Walton was matched up yesterday, "and so I had some idea what to expect. But I was surprised he could run up and down the floor as well as he did. But you can tell he hasn't been playing competitive basketball. His timing was way off."
Indeed, Walton twice in succession went for Kite fakes, allowing Greg a chance to score easy inside baskets. And, while he was rebounding and throwing those priceless outlet passes, he didn't come close to blocking any shots.
Still, he actually was playing basketball for the first time in five months, and that's encouraging. When Auerbach was asked if he were "cautiously optimistic," he replied, "You've got to be. You've got to take it day by day for a while. But let's see what happens when he gets bumped. He was very careful today not to get knocked down. If you're playing with Greg Kite, you have a good chance of getting knocked down."
Walton, meanwhile, wasn't talking about the experience, at least not yet.
The starting five was given the day off, and so was the coach. But Danny Ainge came over to observe Walton. "Other than running and jumping," Ainge quipped, "Bill looks good." . . . Bill should have told Danny that guys who shoot air balls that miss the whole set-up by three feet, as Danny did Sunday in the Silverdome, ought to keep their one-liners to themselves . . . The sides were Walton, Rick Carlisle, Darren Daye and Chris Ford against Kite, Fred Roberts (he doesn't qualify as a starter, obviously), Jerry Sichting and Conner Henry

Dealing with email will be easier in 2013 when the Mailbox app launches. The forthcoming app is designed to modernize email. Mailbox allows you to delete, save and "snooze" emails with the swipe of a finger.
Deleting and storing an email are concepts that are easy to understand, but hitting snooze on an email is something that would throw even the savviest techie for a loop. The Mailbox app's snooze feature allows you to block emails for a certain amount of time. When that time limit has been reached, the emails will appear back in your inbox. This lets you hide emails you don't want to deal with, but it also ensures that you won't forget them later. The app is set to launch in 2013 for the iPhone and Gmail.

Drone first served fire fighters in October's wildfires in Santa Clarita.Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has been touting the use of NASA's unmanned aircraft called the Ikhana for firefighting purposes in Northern California.
The aircraft flies above the fire area and scans the terrain, relaying detailed information to crews on the ground.
This is helpful because during a large fire, it can accurately determine the movement of the blaze, and what type of terrain it will be moving towards.
The drone has the ability to distribute scanned information in 3D within 5 minutes of the flyover, which is a major improvement from previous techniques. Formerly, fire crews relied on aerial photographs, which were often delayed extensively while they were developed and printed.
" California 's unprecedented number of fires this early in the season make it all the more important that we use every tool at our disposal to protect property and save lives," Governor Schwarzenegger said. "NASA's Ikhana is one more incredible tool that we are able to use this year to bring real-time pictures and data to fire commanders, even when our other aircraft are unable to fly. The federal government has been an active partner in helping California fight fires, and NASA's assistance is one more example of that cooperation."
While the Ikhana is currently employed in the fires in Northern California, it actually made its statewide debut last October in the skies above Santa Clarita.
The Ikhana was used for surveying purposes during the Ranch fire in Castaic, and was also commissioned for use in some San Diego blazes. The drone's achievement in the October wildfires has propelled its popularity among ground crews, and will likely make it a staple in future firefights.

They were very aware of the sanitary issues regarding the bed. So no worries for bed bugs. However the restroom and the shower for the dormitory was not on the same floor so a bit bothersome. But overall I liked the stay and if I visit Singapore again, I would definately go to this one.

Since it's the off season, I'm wondering what kind of plans are in store for esports in S4. We've already been given clues of what we can expect as far as content in the game is concerned. I'm curious to see what's down the line here. I ask because there seems to be a few unappreciated resources within the game. With the recent attention that TT and CS have been getting as far as balance is concerned, and TT finally coming out of beta, I believe there's some potential being wasted. Is there not enough demand for a professional 3's team on Twisted Treeline? There's nothing else like it as far as I know. These games could be played in between regular games to give the SR players a moment to rethink they're strategies for example. Does Dominion not have enough potential for a pro scene? This is the main draw to Infinite Crisis and, seeing as how they're partnered with MLG, there's strong reason to believe this is what they'll showcase in their matches. Seeing as how LoL somewhat pioneered this game format, wouldn't it make sense for Riot to get in on it as well? Those are avenues within this game that I think could be entertaining to watch at a professional level. I'm interested in hearing your thoughts about it.
Mandible Claw
dominion has tournaments, but they aren't hosted by riot. it's called dominate dominion but in general, neither of these maps are popular enough. the new TT was cool for a day then everyone went back to SR
I don't that will will focus on TT or Dominion. Also from a marketing stand point it segregates the market too much for 1 game in E sports
Could they not become popular then? Unless I've heard things incorrectly, League of Legends itself wasn't very popular until recently. There's just potential within those maps that I, as a spectator, would eventually like to see utilized.

Cash and cash equivalents were $10.9 million as at December 31, 2010 compared to $14.8 million as at September 30, 2010. The Company's working capital as of December 31, 2010 was $45.6 million. Total assets were approximately $132.6 million compared to $119.0 million as of September 30, 2010, while total shareholder's equity was $110.8 million and $105.9 million in the respective periods.
First Quarter 2011 Operational Highlights PurCotton® Business Update:
PurCotton® sales increased 78.08% during the first quarter of 2011 to $4.5 million as a result of steady wholesale sales of jumbo roll to foreign customers and robust growth of our domestic retail business, which distribution channels include chain stores, online sales and wholesales to large customers in China. Revenue generated from PurCotton jumbo rolls and retail sales were $3.6 million and $0.9 million in the first quarter of 2011, respectively.
Gross profit of Winner Medical's PurCotton retail business for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 was $0.48 million. Net loss for the retail segment was $0.5million in the first quarter of 2011 due to start up expenditures, including market research expenses, product development expenses, leasing fees, salary expenses, and expenditures relative to the Company's own B2C website development, expenses which were not incurred in the same period of fiscal 2010. PurCotton retail business losses combined with net income from the PurCotton wholesale business results in a net loss of $0.2 million for all PurCotton® product sales. We consider that the loss from PurCotton retail business was caused by the necessary cost of investment in building our retail business and our PurCotton brand.
As of February 10, 2011, the Company owns and operates 29 PurCotton chain stores in first-tier cities all over China, including four in Beijing, the capital of China, four in Shanghai and 21 stores in Guangdong province where

FEV, Inc. Announces Technology Lineup For 2012 SAE World Congress
AUBURN HILLS, Mich., April 16, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- FEV, Inc., leading developers of advanced powertrain and vehicle technologies, announced today the technologies that it will exhibit at the 2012 SAE World Congress. The technologies were selected to demonstrate FEV's expertise in the development of propulsion and energy systems over a broad range of markets and the capabilities of the company to tightly integrate into its customers' production planning processes as they develop products for the global marketplace. Gary Rogers, FEV, Inc. president and CEO, made the announcement.
"FEV prides itself on the body of accumulated knowledge it possesses in the area of propulsion and energy systems," said Rogers. "As the nature of these systems has evolved to meet changing customer and regulatory demands, FEV has continued to expand and finely hone its expertise to address new technology fields such as e-mobility and electric and hydraulic hybrids, and has expanded its skill set to include all driveline components that are affected by this evolution. Our exhibit at the annual SAE World Congress contains examples that demonstrate the versatility and flexibility of FEV's engineering capabilities."
Technology features include:
- The KSPG Range Extender - FEV cooperated with KSPG in the development of a compact range extender that optimizes packaging, making it nearly universally applicable for small and medium-duty vehicles. The demonstrator, which weighs just over 132 lbs., is easily integrated into an existing vehicle because the vehicle interfaces are reduced to a minimum. The advantage this provides is that the range extender can be added as an accessory, or optional piece of equipment, providing a "bridge" between fully-electric vehicles and those with a supplemental source of power, should the battery energy be depleted before the driver is able to recharge.
- Protean Drive System - Protean Drive ™ is a fully integrated, direct drive solution that combines in-wheel motors with an integrated inverter, control electronics and software. With the elimination of a large, heavy, and costly independent inverter, each motor can be packaged easily in the unused space behind a conventional 18- to 24-inch wheel and can use the original equipment wheel bearing. The concept requires no gearboxes, drive shafts or differentials giving it far greater flexibility to vehicle designers. The system has the potential to significantly improve fuel economy, depending on the battery size and driving cycle.
- Ford EcoBoost 1.0L I3 Engine - The three-cylinder engine is designed for light-to medium duty Ford vehicles, and will initially be offered with power ratings of 73.5 and 92kW (98 and 123hp, respectively), providing the power of the Ford 1.6L four-cylinder, naturally aspirated engine, while offering better fuel economy and an overall weight reduction of approximately 20 lbs. Ford has stated that 73.5kW version in a Ford Focus delivers CO2 emissions of 114g/km (183g/mi) in the European combined cycle.
- Seven Marine 557hp Outboard Marine Engine - FEV will display Seven Marine's 557 hp outboard, based on the Cadillac CTS-V's lightweight, all-aluminum, fuel-injected, supercharged LSA V8, adapted for the marine market and delivering nearly 60 percent more power than any other outboard on the market.
- 2-Step VCR System - The FEV-developed 2-step VCR mechanism induces small variations in the conrod length, that are achieved by using the gas and mass forces for actuation, thereby achieving a compression ratio that is variable in two steps from 14:1 - 17:1 (in the case of a commercial diesel version). This novel concept ensures rapid and accurate actuation without the use of an expensive power actuator. Versions of the concept are available for both gasoline and diesel engines and can be applied to almost all existing engines (with bore diameters as low as 70 mm). While the obvious benefit of the VCR system is increased engine efficiency, it also offers emissions related benefits, depending upon whether applied to gasoline or diesel engines. Other potential benefits include improved cold startability and the potential to optimize performance while utilizing alternative fuels. The system can be integrated into existing engine designs due to its carry over piston and pin design.
- High Efficiency Combustion System (HECS) - HECS is an on-going R&D program being conducted by FEV that is aimed at the future of passenger car diesel engine design, targeting low CO2 and the best possible fuel efficiency. The combustion system is designed for a high specific power output of over 100 kW/L. FEV engineers designed a 200 bar peak pressure cylinder head with variable valve lift, accomplished through the use of a unique, adjustable roller finger follower for two different lifts. Variable swirl improves homogeneity of the mixture and supports better combustion efficiency. A unique seat-swirl chamfer is combined with variable valve lift to increase swirl, greatly improving combustion. The HECS concept also features advanced thermal management, incorporating split cooling and an air gap insulated exhaust gas manifold, which contributes to improved aftertreatment functionality. A dual-wall exhaust also reduces heat loss to accelerate catalyst light-off during cold starts. The HECS concept demonstrates EU 6 emissions without NOx aftertreatment in a 1700 kg vehicle.

Could skeletal remains be work of serial killer?
Comment on this storySydney - The skeletal remains of a young woman found two years ago in an Australian forest may be those of a German backpacker, police said on Saturday.
Police have been unable to identify the body. Officers dubbed her 'Angel' after a T-shirt found at the site bearing a rose and heart with wings with the word Angelic in pink text.
The victim was aged between 13 and 25. Her body was dumped in the Belanglo Forest 100 kilometres south west of Sydney in 2010. Forensic tests show she died up to 10 years earlier. Police say her remains showed signs of injuries and they are treating her death as suspicious.
The remains were found in the same forest where serial killer Ivan Milat killed seven backpackers including three young Germans.
But police said "Angel" could not be Milat's victim because she died after he was jailed for life in 1996. Some investigators believe that Milat did not act alone.
Police said they have received information that she may have been a German or European backpacker who worked at a vineyard in Western Australia in 2000. - Sapa-dpa

In January of 2013, I thought Bakken operators were expensive. Although these stocks did not appreciate like operators in other plays, I had hoped we would get a pull-back. I had stated the top ways to play this pull back was with Kodiak (NYSE:KOG) and Triangle (NYSEMKT:TPLM).
Triangle missed analyst estimates from the first quarter badly. Expectations were an EPS of 0 cents, but Triangle lost 19 cents per share. This was after it had to delay its earnings announcement due to accounting issues. These issues had to do with the realization of revenues from its pressure pumping business. Although Triangle seemed unprepared for questions on how it would handle this going forward, it would seem a separation would benefit Triangle's balance sheet. Triangle continues to grow fast, as it had revenues of $9 million in 2011. 2013 estimates are for $300 million. The recent sell-off was excessive, look for the stock to head to $7 in the upcoming months.
Kodiak also reported earnings below analyst expectations. It reported 7 cents per share vs. expectations of 14 cents. It missed on the top line reporting $165.1 million vs. expectations of $174.53. This was an interesting quarter, and one that benefits the investor. Kodiak increased oil and gas sales by 26% from the last quarter. This increased to 107% year over year. It has seven operated rigs with one being released on May 13th. Even with the revenue miss, Kodiak still kept its current production guidance for this year. In the first quarter, its Bakken crude sold at a $3.50 differential to WTI. This is excellent, but my estimates have this widening in 2013. More importantly, Kodiak states with WTI selling between $90 and $95, it has margins of $50 to $60/Boe.
The first quarter of 2013 has started what looks to be a new trend for Kodiak. I would not be surprised if this is adopted by other smaller players in North Dakota as well. Kodiak has decided to slow down development in January. Due to the adverse weather and significant amounts of snow Kodiak, used just one completion crew and completed 14.5 net operated wells. It expects to complete 23 net wells in the second quarter and utilize a second crew. June should be the best month, but most of the production growth will be realized in the third quarter. The January slow down did affect the top line, but Kodiak states a large improvement will be seen in the second and third quarters.
The bottom line was affected in the first quarter as well. One-third of the 2013 capex was spent in the first quarter. Some of this is weather related, but also because all of its rigs are on four well pads. Kodiak estimates third quarter costs will decrease as one less rig is needed. Five of its drilling rig contracts will be renegotiated this year, and it expects its costs to decrease. Due to the high price of oil, Kodiak does plan to drill and complete an additional 6 to 8 wells this year. This did increase first quarter costs, but given the high price of Bakken crude it seems to be a good decision.
Exxon (NYSE:XOM) reported an increase in operated production by 75%. Some of this was due to the acquisition of Denbury's (NYSE:DNR). It has 10 operated rigs. Exxon is beginning to allocate more funds to unconventional liquids plays. It specifically mentioned the Bakken and Woodford Ardmore. The reasons are improved performance and completions. Not only are initial production rates improving, but also extended rates. Exxon plans to continue this and will divert money that would be used in unconventional gas as long as those prices remain depressed.
QEP Resources (NYSE:QEP) has been riding the Bakken and Powder River Basin to increase oil production. It will spend over half of its cap ex on the Williston Basin in 2013. Its South Antelope prospect is developing well since its acquisition from Helis. It is running four rigs here and has a fifth to arrive by midyear. It has 3 rigs on the reservation. As with Kodiak, QEPs production will be inconsistent. Pad wells must all be drilled before the completions begin, so production will come in big chunks. This will prove to be important as the Bakken players will probably beat big some quarters and miss big in others. This will happen at least until analysts get a feel for how this will progress going forward. QEP is now saving $5/bbl on the reservation now that water infrastructure is in place. It now has access to more areas to market its crude. In the first quarter it realized 96% of the WTI price. This compares to 88% in the first quarter of last year. All in well costs are $10.8 million, but QEP expects this below $10 million by year end.
WPX Energy (NYSE:WPX) will increase overall oil production by 21% in 2013. Bakken oil production will increase 25% to 30% over that same time frame. Like QEP, WPX is compelled to drive liquids volumes. It put 12 wells on sale in the first quarter, which is quite good considering the poor weather in North Dakota. Its middle Bakken and upper Three Forks wells have performed well with IP rates. Bakken wells are performing better, but not as much as seen in other parts of the play. WPX reports a decrease in time needed to drill and complete wells. Most importantly is the use of zipper fracs, as completion times have been cut significantly. Costs are down 10% to 20% year over year and continue downward. Last year WPX had some of the highest well costs in the Basin at $12.5 to $13 million. This is now down to around $11 million.
In conclusion, we are seeing the same dynamics from different operators in the Bakken's first quarter. Well costs continue lower and most are expecting further discounts in 2013. Pad drilling has decreased times, while zipper fracs are the most affective. Weather in the first quarter slowed times and hurt the bottom line for most of the producers. Operators were prepared for this and focused on first quarter drilling, leaving the majority of completions work to the second and third quarters of this year. Production numbers dragged in the first quarter, but a lot of work got done. The bulk of completions on pad wells will be done in the second and third quarters. This is important as I believe operators will have very good numbers going through the rest of the year. If I am correct, this will be coupled with strong oil prices and increased production. Kodiak may be the best way to play this in the Bakken, even after a nice pop over the past few days.

Summer Sports Gear for the One Percent
When people think of fancy sports gear, they probably imagine Gwyneth Paltrow in Stella McCartney x Adidas, misting herself with Evian as she steps off the private grass tennis court at her East Hampton beach house. (Just me?) But compared to the things below, that's some plebeian stuff.
From Chanel tennis racquets to Marc Jacobs wetsuits and golf tees shaped like the Eiffel Tower, it's all ridiculously expensive and fancy—and not because they're designer collaborations with sports brands, but because they're straight-up designer. All the over-the-top-ness makes it super fun to window shop on a dull June day at the office, when you'd much rather daydream about playing a match with George Clooney while wearing that Valentino tennis dress than do anything productive. (Just me, still?)
For more summer-y clothes and accessories, check out our June/July issue.

The production of chocolate − the culinary wonder that arouses strong sensations and emotions − begins with the fermentation of fresh cocoa beans, in a process that eliminates their pungency and moderates their bitterness. During the fermenting, new flavors emerge with hints of fruit, sherry and flowers; thereafter, the beans are roasted, and at this stage the sweet and nutty flavors are released.

Identifying & Preventing Formosan Termites
Posted Apr 02nd 2014 | By:
0 Comments
If you live in the southern states, you've probably heard of the Formosan Termite but hopefully have never had a personal encounter with them. The Formosan Termite is a nasty little critter that nests above ground in very large colonies and can wreak serious havoc on your home. It is estimated that termite treatment, prevention, and eradication costs upwards of $1,000,000,000.00 every year thanks to the presence of such beasts.
Formosan Termites are bad news for a lot of reasons. For starters, a native termite colony usually has a few hundred thousand residents while a Formosan colony numbers into the millions. This is probably due to their queen being able to live up to a couple of decades during which she will be laying about 1,000 eggs per day. They flourish in climates where it is warm due to a lack of egg viability when the temperature drops below 68 degrees, which has put the southern states on the Formosan Termite radar, with them now occupying several southern states after moving to the United States from China in the 1940's via rides hitched with the military after World War II.
The best way to fight Formosan Termite infestations is to stop them before they start. This means making your home a fortress that is inhospitable to termites. You have to hit them where it hurts by taking steps to make food and water inaccessible to them. This can be done by removing all unnecessary wood and paper from your yard, including dead trees, wooden planters, trellises, and cardboard. All wood that remains must be pressure treated and anything with a post must have that post anchored in cement due to these termites attacking upwards from the soil. Plants, landscape materials, mulch, and wood chips should be kept to a minimum and stored safely away from the house. Rainfall must be directed away from your home's roof and walls through the use of gutters that will place water at least a couple feet away from your foundation. Should gutters fail or any other sort of outdoor leak be present, such as a hose spigot, fix it immediately.
The sooner you realize you have a termite problem, the faster you can take care of it, which is essential to minimizing damage. To identify the type of termite you have, capture a few individuals for analysis. Other things to look for when it comes to termites are the tubes they build to travel between food and water sources as well as pinholes in wood or any other sort of wood damage. The nest of Formosan Termites are large and resemble a rock, but are below ground. If you are able to narrow down a suspect area, check for softness and hollowing as well as bulges or depressions as these are indicators of an active nest.
Termite treatment is often done at the hands of a professional both due to the nature of the work and because some states require a warranty and documentation of treatment. Before hiring someone, be sure that they have experience specifically with Formosan Termites. Through the use of soil termiticides and baits, an exterminator should be able to rid you of your termite problems. For your own peace of mind, feel free to shop around and get a few price bids, but be sure to do so quickly as time passed is damage done when it comes to Formosan Termites and other varieties as well.

Mike Lee is one of the most conservative members of the Senate. The freshman Utah Republican was elected with strong Tea Party backing and, like Sen. John Thune of South Dakota, he's a man of the West.
Mention the possibility that Thune, 51, might team up with Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, and Lee's eyes light up: "I love John," he says. "He's articulate, passionate, collegial. I mean ... I think he'd be great."

Samsung Exynos kernel exploit offers easy root and malware possibilities
Some strange news has appeared this weekend from the folks at XDA Developers that have been digging around in some of Samsung's Exynos kernels. It looks like a pretty big exploit has been found in the kernel for many of Samsung's Exynos powered devices. There's both good and bad news with this exploit so head down below for more details on this new found glory.

- Conference date: 7-9 September 2005
- Location: Trieste (Italy) and Losinj (Croatia)
A paradox is discussed in which a photon can occupy one of two positions, 'left' or 'right.' Quantum mechanics allows the two possibilities—'nothing left, photon right' and 'photon left, nothing right'—to be combined in a (coherent) superposition; or alternatively in an (incoherent) mixture, with similar terms, but no phase relation between them. As the phase relation is statistically significant, and can in principle be revealed experimentally, the two superposed possibilities must both be present in nature, together, for they somehow 'communicate' with one another through that relation. The eigenvalue +1 can be assigned to the presence of the photon on the right, −1 to its absence, to construct a measurable physical quantity, 'photon‐right.' Its expectation vanishes for the aforementioned superposition. If we look for the photon on the left and do not find it, it must be on the right. The superposition accordingly collapses to the term 'nothing left, photon right,' whose expectation for photon‐right jumps from zero to one right away. Only with a mixture could one ascribe the initial (vanishing) expectation to an ignorance which is then overcome once the photon is not found on the left. The issue is: what exactly happens on the left to cause the ontic (and not merely epistemic) jump on the right? Is it some mental event? Or is it nothing at all?

Oprah Gives Young Broward Amputee $100K For Boston Marathon Charity
A young South Florida amputee and his brother just found out they're getting some star power behind their efforts to raise money for the victims of the Boston Marathon bombings.
Media mogul Oprah Winfrey has pledged $100K toward a charity created by 13-year-old Michael Stolzenberg and his older brother, 18-year-old Harris.
Just five years ago, at eight years old, Michael lost both hands and both feet to a massive skin infection.
Winfrey told Michael's story to Harvard University's class of 2013 during her commencement address last month.
"When he learned that so many victims of the Boston Marathon bombing would become new amputees," Oprah told the audience, "Michael and his brother Harris created Mikey's Run dot com. To raise one-million dollars for other amputees."
After the speech, classmates and teachers at the Fort Lauderdale school both brothers attend encouraged them to reach out to Winfrey. Sure enough, Harris Stolzenberg says he and his brother received Oprah's return phone call last week.
"We talked for a little bit and then out of nowhere she was just like 'I'm truly inspired by your story and I'd like to make a 100-thousand-dollar donation," says Harris. "At that point, she was talking to Michael. And Michael just went silent and he didn't know what to say. It was pretty awesome."
The money raised for Mikey's Run will support rehabilitation programs and services for victims who suffered loss of limbs during the Boston Marathon bombings. The April 15th attack killed three people and injured dozens more.
The Stolzenberg brothers had already raised 100-thousand dollars on their own. They'll be hosting a fundraiser at their school, Fort Lauderdale's Pine Crest, in late July to get closer to their $1 million goal.

A busy old pharmacist falls asleep one night while working in his apothecary, and has a wild dream in which all of the bottles in his store come to life, and he shrinks down and becomes a part of their world. He goes through test tubes and sees virtually every color imaginable.
Most of the encounters that he has are good, clean fun- each item cavorting or dancing in a manner suggested by its name (a bottle of Scotch dances a jig, a tube of sleeping powder snores away, etc.).
But there is a sinister presence in this fantasy land: a bottle of poison becomes an evil, maniacal skeleton bent on tormenting our hero. He dispatches spirits of ammonia to seize the poor man and hurls him into a witch's brew of colorful potions. In this sequence, the animators use a dazzling variety of perspectives to show the little guy's journey through a maze of glass tubing filled with colorful liquids bubbling away.
The pharmacist wakes to find that he has been redturned to full size, realizes everything was a dream, picks up the bottle of poison and seems pleased he is safe.

I am checking out a gently used Advantium 240 OTR this evening and was wondering what I should take with me to test it out? I figure a cup of water to test the microwave part but how do I test the speedcook functions to be sure everything is in working order?
Thanks for any suggestions! |

Pilsbury? If you want to do 'just baking' (no microwave), bisquits are quick, or a frozen pizza, or whatever. If you want to do mixed, then I would thing of something like a potato or french fries. Something that you Could nuke or could bake in the oven but would do together. |
Yes, Pillsbury :-) |
Baked potato - We just cooked a pair of giant spuds in 9 minutes flat and they were tremendous - used the speed cooking option |

Mars Attacks!...
Heroes in Action, best known for their hilarious Mego-style Presidential Monsters, was at Comic-Con with a new license: Mars Attacks! A show exclusive two-pack featuring a Martian Soldier and Baracula (see HERE) was offered for sale to debut their new series of 4 inch-tall "Jr." collectible figures. Another exciting format for Mars Attacks will be a 8" Mego-style figure (packaged prototype pictured above) arriving later this year.
While funny, the Baracula Jr. included in the Con-exclusive 2-pack wasn't my thing. My sole interest was in the Martian. Lucky for me, Heroes in Action was offering the Mars Attacks Jr. figure individually blistered! While non-poseable, the figure delights with its cool retro-alien sculpt - the perfect addition to any Mars Attacks collection. Check out more photos of this figure at the link below.

The Chattanooga, TN-GA Metropolitan Statistical Area, as defined by the United States Office of Management and Budget, is an area consisting of six counties – three in southeast Tennessee (Hamilton, Marion, and Sequatchie) and three in northwest Georgia (Catoosa, Dade, and Walker) – anchored by the city of Chattanooga. As of the 2010 census, the MSA had a population of 528,143
As of the census of 2000, there were 476,531 people, 189,607 households, and 132,326 families residing within the MSA. The racial makeup of the MSA was 83.14% White, 13.90% African American, 0.30% Native American, 0.97% Asian, 0.05% Pacific Islander, 0.61% from other races, and 1.03% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 1.49% of the population.
Chattanooga is the fourth-largest city in the U.S. state of Tennessee, with a population of 167,674 as of the 2010 census and 171,279 as of May 2013. It is the seat of Hamilton County. Located in southeastern Tennessee on Chickamauga Lake and Nickajack Lake, which are both part of the Tennessee River, Chattanooga lies approximately 120 miles (190 km) to the northwest of Atlanta, Georgia, 120 miles (190 km) to the southwest of Knoxville, Tennessee, about 135 miles (217 km) to the southeast of Nashville, Tennessee, about 120 miles (190 km) to the northeast of Huntsville, Alabama, and about 148 miles (238 km) to the northeast of Birmingham, Alabama. Chattanooga abuts the Georgia border and is where three major interstate highways meet: I-24, I-75, and I-59.
The city, which has a downtown elevation of approximately 680 feet (210 m), lies at the transition between the ridge-and-valley portion of the Appalachian Mountains and the Cumberland Plateau. The city is therefore surrounded by various mountains and ridges. The official nickname for Chattanooga is the Scenic City, being reinforced by the city's growing national reputation as a haven for numerous outdoor activities. Several unofficial nicknames include River City, Nooga, Chattown, and Gig City, demonstrating Chattanooga's claims that it has the fastest internet service in the Western Hemisphere.
U.S. Route 11 is a north–south United States highway extending 1,645 miles (2,647 km) across the eastern United States. The southern terminus of the route is at U.S. Route 90 in the Bayou Sauvage National Wildlife Refuge in eastern New Orleans, Louisiana. The northern terminus is at the United States-Canada border in Rouses Point, New York. The route continues across the border in Canada as Quebec Route 223. U.S. 11, created in 1926, largely follows the route of the original plan.
The United States is a country in the Northern Hemisphere, Western Hemisphere, and the Eastern Hemisphere. It consists of forty-eight contiguous states in North America, Alaska, a peninsula which forms the northwestern most part of North America, and Hawaii, an archipelago in the Pacific Ocean. There are several United States territories in the Pacific and Caribbean. The term "United States", when used in the geographical sense, means the continental United States, Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Virgin Islands of the United States. The country shares land borders with Canada and Mexico and maritime (water) borders with Russia, Cuba, and the Bahamas in addition to Canada and Mexico.
Chief Moccanooga was the former athletic mascot for the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, until 1996, when the university abandoned the mascot as potentially offensive at the request of the Chattanooga InterTribal Association. Chief Moccanooga was replaced with a mockingbird, the state bird of Tennessee, and the nickname for Chattanooga athletics was changed from 'Moccasins' to simply 'Mocs'.
Chattanooga's decision to remove Chief Moccanooga as mascot was similar to the actions of several other athletic franchises. In 1986, Chief Noc-A-Homa, the former drum-thumping mascot of Major League Baseball's the Atlanta Braves, was removed. The Cleveland Indians continue to employ a potentially offensive Native American mascot, Chief Wahoo.

Simple IE9 question?

Good afternoon,
I have been having a terrible time lately, mostly by asking questiona to various firms. A reply I have just had states that if I say to IE - in my case 9 - then certain things are remembered by my - or is it their? - computer. This is supposed to be instead of having cookies activated.
I have gone all round the icons on IE9 - at least twice - and can find nowhere either to activate cookies or to make particular sites into 'trusted websites'. I know I am being thick and stupid and there must be a way of dealing with both of these - especially 'trusted websites'. I would be very grateful, therefore, if someone could take pity on me and tell me how to do such simple things.
Many thanks in advance.

I use CCleaner (free) to clear cookies, having left IE9 in default mode. In CCleaner you can tell it which ones to keep, but I do not bother. Free version here You can block ads etc - come back if you wish - but see in Tools / Safety/ Tracking Protection. You can also block tracking sites with DNT+.See Abine DNT+At the moment this (for me)is blocking a total of 15 people trying to track what I am doing here alone - 3 social buttons,4 ad networks and 8 companies!

Dr. Daniel Hiser earned his medical degree from Rush Medical College and spent years in private practice, during which he became worried about the sun damage plaguing so many of his patients. Along with a registered nurse and the clinic director, he decided to open a med spa that would nurture skin dealing with the effects of aging and overexposure to the sun. The trio?s brainchild, Timeless Age-Defying Laser Clinic, treats patients to medical services ranging from wrinkle-fighting Botox injections and smoothing laser hair removal to age-defying IPL photofacials and chemical peels.
The clinic also ventures into spa territory with gentler facial treatments, which employ green tea, antioxidants, and microdermabrasion to fight blemishes and restore a youthful glow to cheeks without installing light switches in them. Clients can continue nourishing their skin at home with skincare products from Obagi and Timeless Age-Defying Laser Clinic?s own label.
At The Secret Clinic, vascular specialist Dr. Peter Mann and his team use advanced aesthetic procedures to meet all manner of beauty goals. Dr. Mann relies on noninvasive lasers for many of his treatments, and these beams are the "secret" to a rejuvenated appearance stated in the center's name. An alternative to a surgical facelift, CO2 fraxel skin resurfacing erases signs of aging caused by sun exposure and celebrating birthdays once a month. But the clinic touts more than just technological know-how. Medical-grade facials draw from age-old aesthetic techniques to control acne breakouts, exfoliate dull cells, or create a healthy glow.
Using clinical-grade technology and products to create eye-catching cosmetic changes, the medical aestheticians at Eepo Med Spa do their best to ensure that clients leave looking as rejuvenated and relaxed as they feel. They accomplish this by performing cutting-edge, nonsurgical procedures designed to generally improve the skin's tone and texture. In addition to using microdermabrasion wands and chemical peel formulas to conceal signs of blemishes, the staff also utilizes an arsenal of cosmetic laser systems. These systems can accomplish a wide variety of tasks, including everything from eliminating unwanted stubble and fading acne scars to collapsing spider veins and erasing cellulite. With the help of this technology, the medical professionals can help hide the blemishes that tend to affect aging skin.
The board-certified physicians at The Vein Clinic of Temecula Valley want to see more skin. They notice that patients with varicose and spider veins often hide the purple and red squiggles with longer clothes, thicker makeup, or hot-dog costumes. To restore clients' confidence, the physicians address veins with services including tried-and-true injections and advanced laser treatments. Surface laser treatments deftly fade red spider veins and red freckles without breaking the skin or incurring patient downtime.
The technicians demonstrate their dedication to patients by creating a pleasant experience that continues beyond the initial treatment. During each varicose-vein treatment or PRP skin-rejuvenation treatment, the staff play the client's choice of music. After varicose-vein treatments, unsightly red bumps often develop. Rather than letting these heal on their own—which may take weeks—the staff invite patients back for a complimentary treatment to banish these bumps, leaving legs as smooth as an oiled bald cap.
If you have a cosmetic concern, chances are that Alladerm's staff can perform a laser treatment to resolve it. Here, medical doctors and licensed clinical aestheticians work to help their clients achieve the looks they want, whether its tightened and toned skin, diminished sun spots, or smoother, line-free skin. They treat acne?reducing scarring and diffusing redness?with Cutera Laser Genesis treatments and minimize wrinkles and boost collagen levels with Radiesse injections. With a large list of potential procedures and personalized treatments, Alladerm's welcoming staff is completely dedicated to making your skin healthy and youthful looking, helping you get into the ball pit at Chuck E. Cheese's.
Therapies at Rah Spa make over faces and bodies?but at this airy, white oasis guided by tranquility and relaxation, aesthetic improvement is only half the goal. The other half: offering an escape from the every day. Surrounded with white-on-gray damask patterns, light hardwood floors, and high ceilings, clients set their minds adrift and let their bow ties naturally unravel as aestheticians conduct treatments. An award-winning board-certified gastroenterologist, Dr. Shahla Rah supervises her eponymous spa, ensuring its laser treatments, beauty injectables, and skin peels are administered smoothly, and serves as patients' weight-loss consultant.
