What another awesome day of program!! Nothing reminds me more of how much fun skiing is than shredding the gnar on Snowshed with a bunch of five, six and seven year olds!
This morning I had the Pole Group - where we were working on Fore and Aft balance using thousand step turns...it's amazing when a six year old can explain to you that they are in the back seat, how they were able to determine that from how they were lifting their ski off the ground and then listening to a group of them discuss what they could have done to be more forward. Watching young athletes discover their physical self-awareness is such an amazing moment :) Then we tried leaving our tip on the snow while lifting our heels - and even the kids who were convinced they were forward began to realize how much futher their skiing has to go. As we were heading into lunch, I heard one athlete tell another that they had the first part of the whirlybird down okay, but that they really needed to work on their tails for the second part. Analysis, Vocabulary and Understanding!!
I spent the afternoon with the Pinky Toe Team, trying to wake up that inner leg from its deep slumber. They were able to start tracing my tracks with their pinky toes - a great start :) but these first time Hopefuls were more interested in discovering the Secret Trails known only to Hopefuls. Ah, the Hopeful Secrets...but after a thorough secret meeting to discuss the technical and emotional requirements for these adventures, a great "A hah!" moment happened and we chose to spend the rest of December focusing on Skiing the Gnar (on Snowshed). So we worked on mastering our independant lift riding skills, making friends with the lifties on the Snowshed and Northbrook Quads. Who needs grown-ups, anyways?!
Two Trails Diverged in a Wood, and the Hopefuls? We chose the Gnarly one!!

Watch These Dogs Playing With Balloons — Daily Distraction
Well, perhaps "playing" isn't the most accurate term.
Well, perhaps "playing" isn't the most accurate term.
Tom Brady showed his old magic, and Kansas City and Denver remained unbeaten on the sixth sunday of the 2013 NFL season. Here's what we learned:
Warning: you are about to overdose on adorable.
Kids love balloons, and who can blame them. But it's always fun to watch them learn what happens when your balloon goes POP!
Babies, as everyone knows, are rather delicate creatures. And these dogs have the required gentle touch.
One-hundred-dollar bills are about to get quite the colorful face-lift.
Why do we make our canine pals do things like this?
Pole-sitter Kevin Harvick dominated the field on his way to winning the Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway in Kansas City, Kan. on Sunday.
A rash of near-upsets almost made this a memorable weekend. As it is, this was one of the more exciting weeks of the season so far. Here are some of the highlights.
For some dogs, bath time is AAHHH THE WORST THING EVER. Not these dogs.

Love your Siberians Jean! Your peonies and poppies are ahead of mine. We sure do need some heat now to really get things growing...other than the mosquitoes anyway.lol |
My peonies are nowhere near blooming, and no roses either. I've seen that peony around Dryden, Jean - there are a few of them blooming in different places and lots of a dark pink one that i really like. One place i pass has a huge rose bush blooming - it looks like Hansa but lighter pink flowers. And my poppies have disappeared this year - i don't know why because the winter wasn't too bad (just loooooooong!) |

To help make the Internet a safer and more trusted place for families, Microsoft works with many non-profit organizations including the Family Online Safety Institute (FOSI). Kim Sanchez, a director in the Microsoft Trustworthy Computing Group, served as Chairman of the FOSI Board of Directors from September 2010 to June 2012. Microsoft is committed to helping reduce online risks through technological innovation, business and industry partnerships, outreach, and education. So, for Sanchez, the decision to help lead FOSI was an easy one.
"FOSI is the leading international online safety organization and I am honored to have had the opportunity to serve as the chair of a group that has made such a positive impact for Internet users around the world," said Sanchez.
"Microsoft is an invaluable partner in spreading the word about online safety in our constantly evolving Web 2.0 world," said Stephen Balkam, CEO of FOSI. "Together, we're working to make the Internet a safer place."
Video: Family Online Safety Institute (5:25)
The Family Online Safety Institute is an international, non-profit organization that works to make the online world safer for kids and their families. FOSI convenes leaders in industry, government, and the non-profit sectors to collaborate and innovate new solutions and policies in the field of online safety. Through research, resources, events, and special projects, FOSI promotes a culture of responsibility online and encourages a sense of digital citizenship for all.
The Platform for Good (PfG) is creating a new, groundbreaking tool to promote and encourage digital citizenship for parents, educators, youth, and kids by focusing on the many positive ways families and schools use technology. In addition, PfG uses interactive features and provides resources to help bridge the generational divide in the digital world.
FOSI's Global Resources Information Directory (GRID) is designed to be a comprehensive directory of online safety information. Microsoft provides financial support to help GRID monitor, track, and provide commentary on the efforts of countries around the world to make the Internet safer for their citizens. Visit the GRID website to learn more.
The Broadband Responsibility Project is an initiative designed to help create responsible digital citizens. Microsoft has worked with FOSI to create a checklist for implementing a comprehensive broadband responsibility plan in schools, communities, and states. The parental controls built into the Microsoft operating system are an important part of this checklist, which can be tailored to specific organizational needs and can be developed in a format that can be translated into various languages for use in different countries.
FOSI hosts industry and organization events around the globe to discuss cultural, public, and policy issues related to online safety. The events range from international roundtables to large seminars and conferences. The Institute hosts an annual two-day international conference, trade show, and awards dinner to highlight the extraordinary work, products, and services that exist today. For more information, see FOSI: Events.

Prospective Students | Class Registration
Call Us At: 1-909-558-1000
The LLUSD, UCLA, and USC Post-Baccalaureate students convene at the
Loma Linda University campus.
Loma Linda University School of Dentistry offers a specially designed Post-Baccalaureate Program, to pre-dental students who have not been successful in gaining entry to a dental school. This Program provides academic support, caring guidance, and clinical observation to academically and/or economically disadvantaged students who have a strong dentistry commitment and a desire to serve in their respective communities.
The LLUSD Post-Baccalaureate Program is one of three universities represented in the Southern California Regional Post-Baccalaureate Program (the University of Southern California (USC) and the University of California (UCLA) are also members of this Regional Program). The Southern California Regional Post-Baccalaureate Program is designed to provide knowledge, skills, and experience that enhance acceptance into a dental school. Thus, all three universities share their knowledge and make every effort to help Post-Bac students become more competitive dental school applicants. Completing the Post-Bac Program, however, is not a guarantee of acceptance in a dental school.
The number of students accepted each year at LLUSD is limited.
Loma Linda University's Post-Baccalaureate students begin their 11-month Program in July by visiting the Loma Linda University campus. They attend an orientation, tour the Loma Linda University School of Dentistry, and are introduced to faculty and staff. In addition, students receive registration, curriculum, and other LLU important information and/or guidance at this time.
Next, LLUSD's students join all Southern California Regional Post-Bac students by attending a four-week Summer Program held at USC, UCLA, and LLUSD. The curriculum for this Summer Program includes various dental workshops, programs, and lectures.
After the Post-Bac Summer Program concludes, LLUSD's Post-Baccalaureate students return to the LLU campus and enroll in courses each quarter either at LLUSD, a state college, or a private college. They may choose to retake important science courses or continue their study through advanced science courses.
During the 11-month LLUSD Program students take practice tests that monitor their improvement, are tutored for the Dental Admissions Test (DAT), and enroll in a Kaplan DAT Prep Course. Finally, students receive mentoring and counseling on the complete application process for dental school. They also participate in simulated interviews.
Loma Linda University's Post-Baccalaureate Program concludes in June, after the Spring Quarter.

Periodic continued fraction expansions
This functionality does not run in MATLAB.
numlib::contfracPeriodic(p, q, n)
numlib::contfracPeriodic(p, q, n) returns the continued fraction expansion of p + q*sqrt(n) as a sequence of two lists: the first one contains the non-periodic part, the second one contains the periodic part of the expansion.
The non-periodic part may be an empty list. No periodic part is returned for rational input, i.e., q = 0 or n square.
The non-periodic part may start with zero. All other coefficients of a continued fraction expansion are positive:
numlib::contfracPeriodic(2/7, 1/7, 2)
The result agrees with that one of contfrac:
op(contfrac(2/7 + 1/7 *sqrt(2)), 1)
The golden mean is famous for its simple continued fraction expansion:
numlib::contfracPeriodic(1/2, 1/2, 5)
Since 81 is a perfect square, there is no periodic part in the continued fraction expansion of its square root:
numlib::contfracPeriodic(0, 1, 81)
If is a rational number, then numlib::contfracPeriodic returns one list, otherwise two lists of integers.

A Guide to the Sacrifices that are most Fundamental to Understanding Chess
>Sacrifices are an essential part of chess. Those who never consider sacrificing will miss countless opportunities and find that promising positions repeatedly slip away. Players who do not appreciate their opponents' sacrificial possibilities will be unable to see danger signs, and find themselves on the wrong end of too many king-hunts. Rather than merely cataloguing the various possibilities and providing examples, LeMoir discusses the possible follow-ups to the sacrifices, the defensive options against them, and the positional factors that might suggest whether the sacrifice will be sound or unsound.

Service was terrible during our brunch on Sunday. Our male server never asked if we needed a refill. Food was subpar...If Decatur is going to have an upscale bistro, their service should be upscale and the food should be a reflection of the prices.

Kim Kardashian Shows 'Glee' Love to Chris Colfer
Kim Kardashian Childhood Photos
Take a walk down memory lane and see Kim's childhood pics! 15 Photos »
Following Chris Colfer's big Golden Globes win (and emotional speech), the Glee star worked the after-party circuit and found himself rubbing shoulders with none other than Kim Kardashian. So what's a musical fella like Chris supposed to do in that position? Sing, of course!
Kim, who was decked out in Lorraine Schwartz jewelry and a Nina Ricci gown, tweeted a photo of herself and Colfer at the InStyle Golden Globes party, with Kim using Colfer's fancy new hardware as a microphone. On her blog, Kim wrote: "I hung out with the cast of Glee! OMG they are the sweetest most amazing people ever! Congrats to everyone who won!"
Continuing her Glee love, Kim also posted photos of herself with Lea Michele, and another group shot of herself with Colfer and Amber Riley.
Who knew Kim was such a Gleek?

He is looking at a team that is serious about winning the Stanley Cup. A team that is looking ahead and don't underestimate what Jarome can do. The Los Angeles Kings seem to best fit the profile. He is probably going to move for a draft pick most definitely soon.

It has been rumored on Sporting News Radio that the Boston Bruins are continuing their search for a scoring winger to replace recently departed Bill Guerin, who went to the Dallas Stars this summer.

"Annalisa Ross wedding&event planning helped me with all the stationary and we had no doubt when we came across this. I had invitation, menus, order of service, table numbers and thank you notes with this pattern. Lovely!"
"We transformed the menu card into an invitation insert and added the bridal party, flower girls, and reception information. It turned out better than we expected. We chose this in purple, along with the invitation and response card."
"We are having a nautical wedding in summer and chose navy blue for this menu card. Exquisite, heavy card stock, looks so much more professional than what you can print on your own computer. Suggestion - if you are having a buffet like we are, you can change the titles of the courses to read other things. For instance, we broke it down as Chilled Hors D'ouevres, Hot Hors D'ouevres, Entree and Dessert. You can play around with the titles until you get it to reflect the meal you are serving. Wish I'd ordered more!"
"We love this design! We decided to have our church programs and dinner menus match and they both look so lovely. A very pretty and classy product. The paper quality is also really nice and durable - something that people can definitely take home as a keepsake."
"I order this exact design for my wedding invitation/response card/enclosure card and thought that the menu would be a perfect addition. It added a burst of color to the table and complimented my centerpieces very well. Please be mindful that the 'fushia' color appears as more of a 'violet' color when printed. It is best to order samples to ensure that the color is goes with your wedding colors/theme. The paper quality is excellent and the watercolor images are stunning."

I saw those colorful shoes on Zappos website. The first time I saw someone wearing them, I thought they must have gotten them on sale because who would buy them otherwise? Now I think they are fun and see them often. |

I have some extremely colorful Skechers and I absolutely love all of them. I get so many compliments on my skechers shoes everywhere. I made my husband go with me to the skechers outlet store and try some on and he was sold he now has I think 5 pair of skechers. The go walks were my first ones and he has a few pair of the gowalks. All of them are extremely comfortable. The skechers store here often has a buy one get one half off sale or just very big discounts. So we wait to buy then. Got mine at very good prices.I have so many I really don't need more but I want some of the new colors and styles! My husband has been hoping they would do the gowalks in real tree camo and I just saw that they now have them and they have the womens pink camo too. |

Hollywood starlets are constantly seen around the globe flaunting their toned bodies, but one reality star is fighting back against critics who slammed the star for her barely there bikini.
Tori Spelling, pregnant with her fourth child, has been showing off her growing baby bump this summer in itsy bitsy bikinis, but fans of the star are not happy.
One Spelling fan commented, "Too much showing. Not suitable for a pregnant mom with a seven-month-old."
"Ewww. She's pregnant! Cover that bump up! No one wants to see that!!" another said.
But Spelling is not giving in.
"Spoiler Alert: Yep! I'm wearing my BUMP PROUD again in a bikini so if you don't want to look then leave my site now!" Spelling posted to her website Aug. 9 alongside a photo of her in a bikini.
"A few months back, I caught a lot of flack on two separate occasions for bearing my baby bump in a bikini and monokini while spending the day poolside with my family," she added. "Apparently people online have some strong opinions about showing your pregnant body and what's appropriate to wear."
Spelling, who is due in September, told fans she's proud of her bump.
"Why should I be embarrassed and cover up something that's the greatest gift a woman can experience?" she posted. "A pregnant woman in any shape or size is beautiful! Pregnancy is an amazing journey and we preggers should be able to show it off."
Spelling's husband, Dean McDermott, agrees with the happy mom-to-be.
"I'm never as happy as when I'm pregnant," Spelling said recently, according to the Daily Mail. "And Dean can't keep his hands off me! He's like, 'You're the sexiest pregnant woman.'"
Spelling and McDermott have three other children: Liam is five, Stella turns four next month, and Hattie is seven months old. Spelling became pregnant with their fourth child only one month after giving birth to Hattie.
Spelling is hoping for a boy for baby No. 4.
"We would like a little boy, and Stella … she's now a middle child and when we told her about the pregnancy she said, 'I hope it's a little boy for Liam,'" Spelling told Rachael Ray in an interview airing Wednesday.

Facts about Butterscotch
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Tiger Striped
- Age: Adult
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Short
My name is Butterscotch!
Butterscotch's Info...
I am already spayed and up to date with shots.
Butterscotch is a cute caramel colored tabby She's kind of quiet. She gets along great with other kitties and loves to play. As for people she's a little introverted. She needs a quiet home with a "cat person." When we pet her, she purrs and sucks on her toes kind of like a baby does with their blanket....a little strange, but cute.. She needs to be on a special diet for urinary tract health. That makes it very hard to feed her properly in a multi cat environment, but in a private home, it would be a piece of cake. Butterscotch cake!

Ponemon Security Study Is A Wake-Up Call
Many companies are leaving themselves open to losing sensitive and confidential data because so few have policies to protect information kept on mobile phones and tablets, according Ponemon Institute's recent study, "The Risk of Regulated Data on Mobile Devices."
The analysis, sponsored by file-sharing solution provider WatchDox, found many companies were not taking the necessary steps to safeguard data -- including health reports, credit card details and customer accounts, among other private records. As a result, businesses risk costly mobile data breaches. Thousands of records have already been compromised because employers lacked adequate policies and tools, leaving them open to regulatory fines and lawsuits, according to Ponemon, whose message to channel partners and VARs was clear: They will need to offer security measures if they are to keep client records secure.
Here are the top 10 reasons for the insecurity as well as key recommendations.

Alec Baldwin stars as the crime-fighting superhero who battles his most dangerous nemesis yet in this thriller with incredible special effects, humor and a dose of the macabre!

Top Critic Reviews
Rotten: Despite similarities as a vigilante creature of the night, however, the Shadow -- a character that enjoyed its greatest success in radio after being created in pulp novels -- lacks the visceral appeal of Batman and won't strike the same chord.
- Brian Lowry, Variety, Wednesday, April 25, 2007
Fresh: It offers a diverting, nostalgic retreat to the innocent days when crime fighting was a pleasant, rich man's hobby.
- Caryn James, New York Times, Monday, August 30, 2004
Rotten: Baldwin's low-key performance lacks charisma, Lone alternates between lip-smacking villainy and camp humour, and Miller is chiefly a clothes-horse for a series of slinky '30s frocks.
- Derek Adams, Time Out, Saturday, June 24, 2006
Audience Reviews
As a way of introduction, I compared a couple crime fighters who were known to wear black. Batman was first created in 1939 in a comic book and definitely has some characteristics borrowed from The Shadow. The Shadow started off earlier in 1930 as a radio narrator to some mystery stories. Then by 1931, the character became the star of his own radio show, mostly written by pulp writer Walter Gibson, and for a time voiced by Orson Welles. By 1937 The Shadow developed to become what most people recognize today with the phrase, "Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? Heh-heh-heh-heh-heh-heh-heh! The Shadow knows ... " The radio show continued into the 50's, but the character was developed further primarily through pulp fiction novels. Zorro predates both of these dark cape and cowl crime fighters since he originally appeared in pulp fiction adventures in 1919. While there aren't a lot of similarities, there are enough to consider their common bond. The story in this movie is quite similar to Nolan's Batman Begins, but I think Nolan has a much better handle on the idea of a darkly tortured hero. Baldwin does a good job once he returns to New York and becomes The Shadow. It's pretty embarrassing though that becoming The Shadow supernaturally transforms him. When he puts on his costume, all of a sudden his nose becomes very large and pointed and his eyebrows become very bushy. Technically The Shadow clouds people's minds and does not have the power of invisibility, but the way the effects come off in the visual media it seems like The Shadow is a combination of Batman and the Invisible Man. The movie makes some jokes about radio product placement that I didn't get during the movie. Most of the dialog is pretty silly, but some is enjoyable. It's quaint how all of The Shadow's operations are pre-computer era. There are mail tubes, gears and pulleys, and a small TV type screen. Some of the gadgets like the red signal rings seem like complete fantasy though. Curry is way over the top. He's too hammy for me. Lone shows he can't cover up a strange speech impediment he has, and is overacting most of the time too. Miller is alright, but just when you think her character is going to become stronger she fades into the standard pulp noir female role. Boyle and McKellen give solid supporting performances. Fun adventure, but nothing special.

"Only the shadow knows...muahahaha" LOL! Wow, I was about 10 when I saw this.

Tulku: You know what evil lurks in the hearts of men, for you have seen that evil in your own heart. Every man pays a price for redemption; this is yours. Lamont Cranston: I'm not lookin' for redemption! Tulku: You have no choice: you *will* be redeemed, because I will teach you to use your black shadow to fight evil. One of the original superhero characters. Particularly important in leading to the creation of Batman. The Shadow is a movie that was unfortunately a big screen debut made after the Batman movie, causing obvious comparison. But its still a good one. Cool effects, great production value, Tim Curry and Gandolf, plus Alec Baldwin in one of his coolest role. The original Shadow existed in the form of radio shows and pulp novels. The character was one who dressed in a hat and cloak, carrying the ability to cloud men's minds (jedi mind tricks essentially). Here the Shadow is Lamont Cranston, played by Baldwin. He is a crime fighter existing in 1930s New York, battling various criminals. Things change when a decedent of Genghis Kahn comes in to town, with the plan for world domination (I hate it when that happens). His plan is simple, use a new type of bomb to destroy the city, and eventually become a new conqueror. Ambitious, but simple. Dr. Roy Tam: I guess you would call it an implosive-explosive sub-molecular device. Lamont Cranston: Or an Atomic Bomb. Dr. Roy Tam: Hey, that's catchy. The Shadow, using his various connections through men whose lives he has saved, figures out Kahn's plan and must hurry to stop him. He also runs into some supporting characters played by Peter Boyle, Ian McKellan, Penelope Ann Miller, and Tim Curry. I enjoy this movie because it is one I grew up watching mainly. It's a lot of fun, has a great look to it. Uses a lot of special effects to make the character work. Has a score by Jerry Goldsmith that works. The dialog is very comic book styled. And it has some humor in what it is doing. This is an entertaining crime fighter flick. Shiwan Khan: In three days, the entire world will hear my roar, and willingly fall subject to the lost empire of Shan Kahn. That is a lovely tie, by the way. May I ask where you acquire it Lamont Cranston: Brooks Brothers. Shiwan Khan: Is that mid-town. Lamont Cranston: 45th and Madison. You are a barbarian. Shiwan Khan: Thank you. We both are.

The mysterious "230" campaign has officially been attributed to General Motors - specifically, to the 2011 Chevrolet Volt. After months of speculation, GM announced this week the results of its preliminary data on the Volt's fuel economy. According to GM, its extended-range electric vehicle is expected to get 230 miles per gallon (25 kilowatt hours per 100 miles) in the city.
For those who have been hiding under rocks, the Volt is GM's latest technological gamble, an extended-range electric compact hatchback that can travel up to 40 miles on electric power only. When the battery's charge is low, the Volt automatically switches to "extended-range mode," during which a gasoline-powered engine works as a generator to produce electricity to power the vehicle.
GM arrived at its 230 mpg estimate using tentative Environmental Protection Agency methodology, meaning that number may change when the EPA does its own testing closer to the Volt's scheduled launch late next year. Under the new methods, the EPA will weight plug-in electric vehicles as traveling more city miles than highway miles on only electricity. Applying the EPA's new guidelines, GM believes the Volt will consumer 25 kWh per 100 miles.
"Actual testing with production vehicles will occur next year closer to vehicle launch," said Frank Weber, global vehicle line executive for the Volt. "However, we are very encouraged by this development and we also think that it is important to continue to share our findings in real time, as we have with other aspects of the Volt development."
Estimating U.S. electric costs at 11 centers per kWh, GM says the average Volt driver can expect to shell out about $2.75 for electricity to travel 100 miles, or less than 3 cents per mile.

Gull-Wing is good times.
Reverse camber is neat. Feels loose/ squirrely/round when riding 'flat', ie not on your edge. Doesnt' quite give the bite in a hard carving turn my traditional camber Team Series had, but it sure does hold an edge and allow me to lean over or back as far as i want during my turns without slipping out from under me. Going up obstacles heel side and doing toe side slahes for the first time which says a lot to me about the balance and forgiveness the board is offering. Stable at high speeds, fast base. Overall I am pleased.

Typical government thinking. (356 comments)
If it is not in the written procedure STOP IT NOW!!!!
Seriously. They have a procedure they have to go through and follow to the letter. There is no room for innovation or individual thinking when it comes to Federal agencies. You deviate from written procedure you get written up or lose your job.
I have run into it enough times in action to know this was probably the case.

Re:Plum Island ain't closing anytime soon. (105 comments)
Actually they don't study anything that can be transmitted by rat, They study diseases that effect agriculture (cows, horses, pigs etc...) with the exception of avian diseases.
If there were a lack of containment there is little on Long Island that would be infected as there are few if any cattle ranches there. The deer population would take a hit as would horses, but there are no ranches so to speak of. Kansas on the other hand has plenty of such and an outbreak could devastate the economy. Again this is the reason for it being on an island in the first place. If a deer gets on plum island it is killed to prevent any possibility of the spread of disease. How are you going to control that in an land locked area?
Re:Plum Island ain't closing anytime soon. (105 comments)
Technically they were both downgraded to tropical storms before they hit Long Island. Long Island hasn't had an actual Hurricane since Gloria in 1985.
Re:Build it right where it can infect the most? (105 comments)
Actually nothing, The place has survived much worse hurricanes (1978 and 1984) during my lifetime.
Plum Island ain't closing anytime soon. (105 comments)
I know people that work on plum island. They say that the place will be open till at least 2021. The decision to move it was purely political. At the time the local governments did not want a level 4 facility on the island, Once it was announced that the research would be moved to Kansas they recanted. There has also been much discussion about the wisdom of moving it to the middle of tornado alley and cattle country. Terrorism has had little effect on the decision, an island makes it very easy to control who comes and goes as compared to a facility reachable by foot. It would not surprise me to see them upgrade Plum island and cancel the project in Kansas, on the other hand it is up to the usual political backroom deals.

The point isn't whether the flu vaccine is necessary or not. The point is you are mandated to get it if you work in a NYS article 28 facility (section 205 of the NYS public health law specifically) you are forced to get this shot if you want to keep your job. This includes care agencies, Hospitals, Nursing homes etc...
Is the vaccine safe, who knows? They just started clinical trials. This is the problem Health care workers are being forced into the clinical trial. I know for a fact that it is not FDA approved yet, and because it is a vaccine for a "pandemic" disease it is allowed to bend the rules of acceptable ingredients. The mercury content of the vaccine is higher than normally allowed. available here While a healthy male may have no problem with this, how about a pregnant female? Some of the ingredients are known to worsen thyroid conditions . The problem is no one really knows what will happen.
Also why mandate the swine flu shot but not the regular flu shot. 12% of people die from the flu every year (CDC reports) yet as of June of 2009 the swine flu has about a 6% mortality rate (Again CDC reports).
This disease is less deadly than most other strains of the flu yet there is panic over it. The big deal is while the normal flu may put you out of commission for 3 days the swine flu can knock you out for 6 days to 2 weeks.
The CDC is not mandating health care workers get the shot, only NYS is. Plus you have to sign multiple wavers that you won't sue anyone should you end up sick from it. Basically you are given the choice of playing Russian roulette or lose your job. You have a 1 in 6 chance of getting the bullet but if you get the bullet your chances don't matter you are stuck with the reality. A lot of the people educating people on the Vaccine when asked if they will get it, turn around and say no. How can they truthfully educate people on how safe this vaccine is if they refuse to get it?
I know in Manhattan on Oct 13 an injunction is being filed by PATRICIA FINN on behalf of all health care workers, and it may go class action suit if the injunction is approved.
Fyi I just gave a lecture on swine flu and have a ton more info if any one wants it, most of it is available off CDC websites though.

The Acratech GV2 Ballhead/Gimbal Head is a sturdy, heavy duty, yet compact ballhead that is similar in design to most conventional ballheads (unlike the unique Ultimate head). However, the GV2 model has been improved so that it can be locked down when the head is in the 90° orientation, which effectively turns this ballhead into a gimbal-style head. This will now allow the camera to pivot around its center-point, gimbal style.
The GV2 features a low profile design, and sports all-rubber knurled knobs that are more comfortable to use, especially in extreme weather.
- Full movements allow any camera position
- Precision C.N.C. machined
- Engraved degree markings
- Solid precision feel
- Fully adjustable tension control knob
- Made in U.S.A.

NBA: Struggling Sixers lose 25th game in a row
Published on Mar 25, 2014 5:03 PM
SAN ANTONIO (AFP) - The Philadelphia 76ers lost their 25th game in a row on Monday, moving to within one game of equalling the National Basketball Association's mark for futility in the league.
Austin Daye came off the bench to score 22 points as San Antonio cruised to a 113-91 over the hapless 76ers, who can match the longest single season losing streak in history with a loss to Houston on Thursday.
"It felt like they were running 100 miles per hour out there," Philadelphia's Thaddeus Young said of San Antonio.
"They were moving and passing and cutting, but that is a sign of a team who has been together for a few years and has been a championship-contending team each and every year."

The Virginian-Pilot
Seeing his state about to get hit hard by sequestration budget cuts, Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell looked down the road and saw another possible threat looming.
Congress is not currently planning for it. But in an economic climate of defense cutting, McDonnell feared that Congress might support a new round of federal base closures, making Virginia's defense assets vulnerable.
So McDonnell tapped the recently retired head of the Navy's Fleet Forces Command, Adm. John Harvey, to lead a state commission tasked with helping Virginia avoid losing any military installations and positioning it to attract more.
The state board is being reconstituted years after the 2005 round of congressionally mandated closures forced the Army to vacate historic Fort Monroe in Hampton.
Harvey says his 15-member team will travel the state to examine how military bases and communities interact and to gather data showing why Virginia is the ideal place for these bases.
"I think there's a great opportunity for Virginia in the midst of chaos and crisis," Harvey said Friday. "I think the governor sees a need to prepare for that opportunity."
Harvey retired from the Navy in September and has been a visiting lecturer at the University of Virginia's Darden School of Business executive education program.
He said he is glad to chair the state's Commission on Military Installations and Defense Activities.
"I think it's important, as a citizen of Virginia in these very extraordinary times, to do my bit," Harvey said. "It's work I believe in. I am a citizen, and I am in a position to do it."
The bipartisan group will likely work through the end of 2014, Harvey said. In its first stage, the team will collect data to better understand why Virginia lost bases in the 2005 BRAC round and to look at what's different on bases today.
Relations between Hampton Roads' bases and host cities strengthened after 2005, when the Defense Base Closure and Realignment Commission proposed closing Oceana Naval Air Station, in part because of encroaching development in Virginia Beach.
That spurred the city and state to agree to spend millions to acquire property between Oceana and Fentress Naval Auxiliary Landing Field in Chesapeake, which Navy fighter jets use for landing practice.
In February, the Chesapeake City Council voted to rezone nearly 16 acres off Mount Pleasant Road to allow for a subdivision. That property is a few miles from Fentress.
The decision surprised regional and Navy leaders, who warned that the action could jeopardize the base and landing field. The City Council agreed to reconsider the decision and will vote again on the issue Tuesday.
Harvey said his commission will also examine the effects of defense cuts on the state and make recommendations to help the governor advocate on Virginia's behalf in Washington.
Similar commissions are being formed in such states as Indiana and Montana, he said.
He said Virginia makes more sense as a host for defense facilities because of its deepwater port and its established air stations and naval bases. If another round of base closings occurred, Harvey said, he is confident he could make the case to sustain Virginia's military installations.
"We are going to have the best case," he said. "It's always good to have the facts on your side."

Dual spec Q&A with Ghostcrawler {WoW}
Feb 12th 2009 6:15PM I'll Play Devils Advocate
I've healed UK, Nexus and Azjoub whilst leveling as shadow, I don't see the problem.
Hypothetically if duel specs were available whilst leveling you would need to spend points into 2 alternate roles (pve lvling or pve healing or tanking).
The first question is. When would this be actually be viable? level 40,50,60?
How often would you get a group in low end content? Considering blizzard has accelerated the leveling process.
As for rolling on gear not pertaining to your spec nor even your classes roll it reminds me of the time back in BC where a Warlock need rolled and won on a tanking trinket that my warrior who was tanking at the time was farming for...
Needless to say there is an element of inappropriate gear acquirement no matter who you group even with the inclusion of duel specs.
So long as the group is clear about the loot rules set out prior to starting and if that is an issue set it to ML or find alternate members.

What it won't help you do is see if a high gas mileage car is really worth it.

I am considering buying a AR-15 here before the November election. I know almost nothing about rifles in general. I am not looking for something real fancy, I just want one with a removable carrying handle because I want to put a holo sight on the rifle. As much as I would want to spend is 1000 dollars. Please help me your thoughts on brands, (or a specific model) becuase I want to make sure I get a good quality rifle becuase I dont want to be fixing a rifle often.
Also, what advantages does a gas piston rifle give?
Thanks all.
