(this is from my personal experience. You should start by checking with your doctor. And if you dont already do it, take your bp every day and keep track of events in your life. A pattern MAY emerge. FOr instance, my BP is always a little higher when I go to dr.'s office.)View Thread
Did doc give you bp med? What was your BP? (I Personally have never heard about an apnea/bp link.
what CAN help is diet, losing weight, plenty of water, cut out ALL added salt, AND be careful of the sodium is prepared/frozen foods (and some fresh foods).
Here's a link (or two) that may help, both links are for apnea support forums:
http://www.apneaboard.com/forums/Thread-CPAP-Can-CPAP-lower-BPView Thread
I know what initially worked for me (this is just my personal opinion) is diet and CUTTING OUT ALL ADDED SALT and being very conscious of the amount of sodium in processed foods (soups are notorious for high sodium). I try to buy no salt added or low salt (even low salt can be HIGH in sodium).
I"m oN Weight watchers and I watch fat, sodium, cholesterol etc. and portion control is key. I weigh/measure almost everything that is preportioned, and I have to be VERY careful if I eat out.
PERSONAL OPINION. NO one else's "opinion" is a substitute for seeing your doc on a regular basis.View Thread
if the APP is free, try it. especially if it reminds you to take meds.
get a BP monitor and keep a spreadsheet. take BP daily. I personally like the WRIST monitor, but I would ask your doctor if that one is good for you.
I follow WEIGHT WATCHERS. of course, they are about losing weight, but if you follow whatever plan you folow, CUT SALT OUT OF YOUR DIET - I even cut out salt substitute., In my case my BP DID lower to a good range. If you dont need to lose, then DASH would work. Be careful with cholesterol. An average large egg can be around 195mg of cholesterol, that is (in my opinion) too much. I also cut out eggs. I use egg whites and egg beaters.
Be VERY VERY careful of processed foods (frozen and canned). They can VERY HIGH in SODIUM.
Learn to read nutrition labels. Even "No sodium" products have SOME sodium. The lower in fat for a food, usually it is higher in sodium. Be VERY careful of deli meats. even the "low sodium" versions are too high in sodium.
AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION diet is similar to WW.
more fresh fruits, veg. Find other things to "flavor" foods, such as lemon, pepper, paprika...whatever you like. (I PERSONALLY like WINCO's bulk spices and in particular their Chili-lime.
DIETS don't work. changing your way of eating does.
WW recommends 2 tsp of "healthy oil" per day. Not sure what DASH recommends, 2 tsp is 10g of fat.....
DISCLAIMER: This all works for ME. As with any "diet" check with your doctor.View Thread
Here's some reading material for you:
And this one is a forum in the UK:
hope this is helpful to you. BTW, I have no medical training, but I LIKE to read and any advice I give is based on my personal experience.
Lastly, have you talked to your doctor about this? I think generally its a normal reaction.View Thread
I have no medical training, but it is my PERSONAL OPINION that bp meds SHOULD have lowered it a bit, even with "inherited" high BP. Have you talked to family members about it. What did THEY do?
YOU really don't need a poll (even though I voted for doctor) the answer is BOTH. Diet and doctor......
if you don't already do so, take your bp every day at same time, and keep track of it...
This article may help you understand your BP. But please make appt with doctor, then come back here and let us know.

Remember that the lower in fat, the higher in sodium. And "unsalted" food products still have a minimum amount of salt.
Deli meats are VERY high in sodium, as are many frozen MEALS.
in restaurants I ask for food preparation with NO ADDED Salt.
do NOT use food items such as SOY SAUCE, not even the "low-salt" version.
For instance, from recent meals (I am also on Weight Watchers):
- Trader Joe's veggie wrap with hummus: 460mg sodium
- any low- or no-fat salad dressing has around 200mg per each 2 TBSP of dressing.
- Venti NF Latte - around 240mg sodium
- California sushi roll - around 500mg (I'm not sure how they get that much sodium)
Soups are notoriously high in sodium.
By the way, I wonder what happened to the person who started the thread (HEARTSTON).
Always make sure you drink enough water.....I use guideline of 6-8 glasses a day (around 64 oz) in addition to all other liquids.View Thread
I think you should check with your doctor. I took a diuretic recently and it didnt work at all. It also may depend on the CAUSE of the fluid retention. R U drinking enough water (check with your doc about that). Have you read all the info that drug? That drug is (of course) a diuretic used to treat high BP. You should NEVER increase BP med (in my opinion) without checking with your doctor.View Thread

Housing Demand High in Iowa City
IOWA CITY, Iowa (CBS2/FOX28) -- It is a seller's market in Iowa City and Coralville this spring, where consumers are buying homes at a breakneck pace, said Blank & McCune real estate agent Adam Pretorius.
Consistently low interest rates are to thank, Pretorius said.
"This is really attractive to buyers, who normally would have to own a home for four to five years to even break even or pay it off, now can own a home in two to three years," Pretorius said.
Ben Clark and his wife found just that when they started looking for a house. The Clarks are moving back to Iowa City from Des Moines, and bought their house in just three days.
"We made our decision to buy our house in a really quick manner just because we had seen a lot of houses and we knew there was a short supply of houses that we liked and that fit all the needs that we had," Clark said.
But the area is barely keeping up with demand -- so much so that construction companies are putting up new homes as quickly as possible. The number of new building permits is up this year as compared to last year, particularly in condominiums and multi-unit buildings. That is a big boost to the local economy, Pretorius said.
"It's great to know there's a lot of demand, a lot of buyers coming to this area," Pretorius said.
And while the Clarks won't move to the area until June, they're just happy to have a place they call home.
"The only things we have left to do is pick out a daycare and my wife needs to find a job," Clark said. "So, we're excited."
Pretorius suggests that buyers have their real estate agent get them into email chains for active searches, and says they should be ready to say yes to a house they want very quickly. Otherwise, the house could easily go to someone else.

On January 17, The Department of Health and Human Services (HSS) filed a long-awaited final rule interpreting the provisions of HIPAA. The rule makes final, supplementary changes to Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act regulations, the HIPAA Enforcement Rule, the Breach Notification for Unsecured Protected Health Information under the HITECH Act and the HIPAA Privacy Rule as mandated by the GINA (Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act). The rule will be effected March 26, 2013, with enforcement beginning September 23, 2013. The 563-page rule changes various aspects of health privacy laws and is said by HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius to "help protect patient privacy and safeguard patients' health information in an ever-expanding digital age." However, the scope of privacy and security rules will expand to business associates, leaving unprepared health care contractors and subcontractors at risk of liability.
Notable changes include:

My bamboo is doing well except that the tips on some of them got 'fried' in the sun. I think I might have accidentally sprayed the top of the plant next to my driveway when washing my car. Should I just leave it or cut the burned tips off? It looks a little unsightly. Thanks again. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Do what you want...neither approach will help or hurt the plant. I also doubt that you caused the problem by accidentally spraying the leaves. Sometimes it just happens with bamboo and there's nothing that can be done about it. |
Thank you kudzu9, I appreciate your help. I thought when I sprayed the leaves in the direct sun they must have burned. Okay, well I'll just leave them. |

One native shrub that you may not know is snowberry. It provides nice dark green foliage spring through fall and white flowers tinged with pink in the spring. The real show is the waxy-white berries that give this bush its name and provide food for many species of game birds from fall into winter. The fruit, or berries, of the native snowberry, also known as ice apple, Symphoricarpus albus, is enjoyed by pheasant, grouse, quail and other birds as well. Symphoricarpos is a member of the Honeysuckle family, Caprifoliaceae. This genus of plants is known collectively as snowberry. S. albus (alba), common snowberry, is native to the eastern half of the United States.

Golfland debuted its first putt-putt green in 1953 and has since expanded to seven locations across California and Arizona. Each location features one to three 18-hole courses, replete with colorful castles, windmills, and fountains. After navigating the obstacle-filled fairways, guests can try their hands at an array of arcade games, whether felling foes in fighting games, stocking up on tickets to win prizes, or following the spellbinding plotline of a pinball game. At the San Jose location, visitors can cool off in the warmer months with a trip down parallel outdoor waterslides.
Raging Waters San Jose is one of California's biggest and most varied waterparks. Rides include: the twisting and turning Barracuda Blaster, which features 500 feet of snaking slide before a final plunge into a pool; the Bombs Away, with its 200-foot straight drop followed by a dizzying inverted flume; and the Dragon's Den, where you can enjoy hurtling through the dark and slippery enclosure while trying to figure which way you're facing. Raging Waters has annual and season passes that go for next to nothing during the winter months, making them a great deal when summer finally does come around. They have a main food court that features some surprisingly decent fare, a Subway, and a local BBQ shack called Sharky's.
From Dance Dance Revolution Extreme and Mario Kart to skeeball, the more than 100 video and redemption games housed at Nickel City only cost one nickel per play. Additionally, more 30 arcade classics are playable for free—such as Pac-Man, Mortal Kombat, and Street Fighter—during which gamers battle evildoers trying to prevent them from repaving the road. Once players accrue enough tickets, they can swap their stubs at the redemption counter for prizes such as army men, stuffed animals, and electronics. In between the virtual action, guests can reenergize with a bite from the snack bar or join friends for celebrations in the party room.
Pump It Up's indoor inflatable arenas launch socked striplings into the air with a plethora of kid-friendly bounce pads. Staffers supervise fun-filled visits, during which adult counterparts leap around with their kids through gargantuan bounce houses, skip down air-filled slides, and slither like snakes covered in bacon grease through an inflated obstacle course.
The colorful venue also hosts custom birthday parties and private team parties, each themed to please the partygoers in question. These soirees immerse children in a schedule of interactive activities befitting a pirate or a superhero while melting off youthful energy faster than ice cubes thrown into a running DVD player. The birthday boy or girl even gets to blow out the candles on their cake seated in their blow-up throne. Occasionally, the staffers switch off the lights, arming the roomful of players with glow sticks and bracelets as they navigate the air-cushioned obstaclescape. Relying on the staffers' vigilant, watchful eyes, guardians can rest assured that their charges will stay safe, and each piece of the inflatable playground is held to the floor and ceiling by a complex series of anchors installed according to strict safety standards.
Inside Line Racing gives RC enthusiasts a venue to pit their mechanical monsters against radio-controlled rivals in tests of speed and skill. A large, winding foam track provides the arena upon which glory will be won and reputations will be shattered as motor-powered autos careen toward the finish line. Rentals are fully able to hold their own, even against home-brewed speed machines, ensuring a fun and fair hour of competition for beginners and Mario Andrettis alike.
Lead-footed motorists can experience unlimited access to Redwood City Malibu's high-performance rides and attractions. Go-karts zip around hairpin turns, pick up speed on straightaways, and fly across banked curves with a passenger in tow aboard Redwood's safe and speedy four-wheeled chariots. After an afternoon of speed, slow down with the thoughtful zen-like meditation that is miniature golf on the park's whimsically appointed links, or calmly crash into someone else's vessel on the bumper-boat battlefield. Speed demons can contemplate déjà vu on the circular grand prix course while leaving opponents as confused and defeated as the English after UFOs helped America achieve independence.

Suspected Microchip in H1N1 Vaccine?
Submitted by SusanneV on Wed, 07/29/2009 - 12:45Is this a possibility?
Well over a decade ago the capability to microchip humans involuntarily, without their knowledge, was already here. The former Chief Medical Officer of Finland announced this in 2000. Today many doctors and naturopaths suspect same including Dr. John Waterman, N.D., in an interview a few days ago with Kerry Cassidy, co-founder of Project Camelot
Implanted human beings can be followed anywhere. Their brain functions can be remotely monitored by supercomputers and even altered through the changing of frequencies. Guinea pigs in secret experiments have included prisoners, soldiers, mental patients, handicapped children, deaf and blind people, homosexuals, single women, the elderly, school children, and any group of people considered "marginal" by the elite experimenters. The published experiences of prisoners in Utah State Prison, for example, are shocking to the conscience.

Okay, suppose it's possible, need more information.
Meanwhile, the "set up" continues:
I particularly like this part:
The Senate's Office of Attending Physician "believes that they most likely have influenza, quite possibly the H1N1 virus," Gainer said.
But doctors will not test the pages for swine flu "since the test itself is uncomfortable and the results of the test will not alter the treatment plan"
In other words, if we say you have the swine flu, you do, so don't ask us to test you for it.
By the time the flu gets here, the propaganda campaign will have the masses breaking down doors to get their shot.
GPS signals & registered GPS
GPS signals & registered GPS coordinates that the sensus bureau is recording to date. WHO comes & goes from your front door ?
naughty, naught
Doesn't pass smell test
..for many reasons, but here's a few
1. Microchips are placed just under the skin, not injected directly into veins. It would be obvious that this was not just a flu jab.
2. All doctors and nurses would have to be in on it.
3. A database of which chip goes to who would have to be created. Who would administer and maintain this and how?
4. Massive training programs would have to put in place.
We currently have ways to track microchips in place
There already is a database that could track what microchips go to who, it is the individual serial number and lot number of every vaccine which already by law is to be recorded for every individual that receives the vaccine. This is a very simple system. They hold their own list of what microchip goes into which individual vaccine and then the unknowing administrators of the vaccines record something that they already do with every vaccine, simple.
Not neccissarily
1) Flu shots dont go into the viens... they go intramuscular, usually in the delts..unless itsa mist which would be inhaled nasally
2) docs and nurses simply draw the vaccine from a vile into a syringe and inject... they have no idea where the vile came from and rely completely on the series of checks that the manufacturer does or does not do on the viles. Mistakes have been made in the past where people have been injected with the virus and not the vaccine.
3) The data base is not as complicated as it would seem. it could be set up "as we go".
4) What training?
Semper Fortis
Semper Fortis
Well the vaccines are meant
1) Well vaccines are meant to be injected into muscle tissue, not veins.
2) Not if it's put in the vaccine during a part of the manufacturing process.
3) If it's some kind of RFID that would have to be close to things like Tetra Masts to be active, from there the data could be bounced off satellites to some computer.
4) The only training/research work would have to be done by high clearance scientists working in black ops. From there it's just an operational question of adding the sand grain sized chips to the individual vaccine doses during the manufacturing process, which wouldn't be hard considering how compromised the Pharmaceutical Industrial Complex is.
So the method you describe would be that they inject a random RFID chip then read it later, and maybe associate with face recognition for entry into a database? I was thinking the database entry would occur during injection.
Is there evidence yet that this can this be done in muscle and not just under the surface in the skin? I have seen the process done in Scotland for the night club entry ID and it seems the chip is injected sideways not directly into the muscle. These chips were much larger than what could feasibly by injected with stand flu needle though, yet I understand Fujitsu had prototype some dust particle sized chips 6 months back.
That's a good question about
That's a good question about the chips being personalized with ID data etc. I suspect that if there was an agenda to chip the population with generic implants, it could be that (assuming this is something actually possibly being considered) the purpose might be to get a general track on "the herd".
The ID/Cash chips would have to be more "consensual" where people are aware of it and go to get it in the same way they apply for diver's licenses etc.
Honestly like everyone else I don't know what's going on and I hope things aren't as Nazi-like, because if they are frankly it's beyond what Hitler tried to do/did.
they can already track everyone and even listen in to cellphones in the off position, for years now... it's easily done and attainable. during the bush administration, they were recording all internet traffic on the top 10 ISPs... they have the technology...

Cites motives
for putting microchips in the vaccine, and moral decay of higher-ups, but no hard proof that this will be the case.
If it's "their" intention to microchip everyone, all recipients of all kinds of shots are probably already chipped.

Larry Ellison is the CEO of Oracle. http://www.google.com/search?q=larry+ellison+federal+databas...
The NSA has technology now called Echelon that taps into international phone lines for the purpose of monitoring phone, email, fax, etc. The network of computers is so powerful that it can listen in on thousands of calls simultaneously, determine when a code word has been uttered, and transfer the call to a waiting agent who can then listen in real time or record the call back to the beginning to listen to it later. http://www.google.com/search?q=echelon&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=...
They can track you without chipping you too. A few years ago, at the olympics or some other large event (I think it was the Atlanta games), the FBI or some other federal agency had a computer that was using facial recognition software to check every person who entered the venue. It's kind of like the fingerprint matching software that the police use but the computer scans the whole face and is able to search for a match.
Many police departments now have automated license plate scanners in their cars. A camera is constantly feeding images to a computer which is programmed to recognize a license plate from a photo, use OCR like software to determine the number, and cross check it against a database of the wanted. The PC alerts the officer that there is a warrant out for the arrest of the driver of the car that's in front of him.
And don't forget PROMIS which has been mentioned on threads here on the DP. It is software that tracks private financial transactions. http://www.google.com/search?q=promis&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t...
Ever seen the automated toll booths that can track thousands of cars, even at high speeds?
You are already being tracked by the Social Security Administration, HIPAA (health care), medicare, state government, etc. ad nauseum. Why not add a line or two to the 1000 page bills being passed by lazy congressmen who don't read them? It could be sold as a way to consolidate IT departments within the federal government which would save the taxpayers billions of dollars. It could be sold as a way to make sure we didn't have any problems with birth certificates ever again. We could have video of every person being born and getting assigned their ID chip, with RFID scans of every doctor, every nurse, and every syringe used. What a great way to prevent fraud. Health insurance corporations could use the video from exam rooms to determine whether or not the doctor is following their rules and review your hormone levels to make sure you were following the rules too. Just think of the court room applications. There would never be any reason to ask a defendant, "where were you on the night of the crime at 11 pm?" The court could just subpoena the list of the RFID scanners you passed from the Collective Utopia Computer, and edit the data if necessary for the common good.
I hope this proves to you that the technology and resources required to track everyone and everything already exists.
That's the real reason
for Reagan's "Star Wars" technology. It was touted as a system to intercept Russian nukes, but it was really a satellite system designed to track humans. Don't underestimate the amount of technology the Federal government has: they're not going to voluntarily let on how advanced they are.
Seems to be the perfect way to gain control.
No muss, no fuss.
They don't track "everyone".
They make everyone "trackable", and then if/when they ever decide you need watching, they dial-up your chip, and put you on the screen.
The technology that we are aware of today ....
was available to and in use by the military for at least 20 yrs before we knew anything about it. Did you know that Hitler had a sort of computer to track prisoners in the concentration camps? It was designed by IBM. They HAVE the technology. I WISH it was a stretch.

I am not surprised....
My son and I were talking about this very thing a week ago....and a few months ago I stumbled on to the fact that anything manufactured in the US to be implanted in to the body has to have a microchip for tracking. This has been the case since 1994 as a result of a mandate by the FDA. This includes, pacemakers, joint replacements and breast implants! They do NOT inform the recipient of this......

that "anything manufactured in the US to be implanted in to the body has to have a microchip for tracking." Thanks.
It is part of the FDA's......

MONDAY, Sept. 13 (HealthDay News) -- New research suggests that biomarkers in the blood may help diagnose Alzheimer's disease before it progresses, potentially opening the door to better treatments.
While there are currently no treatments that can halt or delay the onset of the disease, the hope is that being able to diagnose Alzheimer's earlier could provide clues about what medication might prevent it from getting worse, the study authors said.
"Most of the research to this point has been done on those who already have Alzheimer's disease," said study author Sid O'Bryant, director of research for the F. Marie Hall Institute for Rural and Community Health at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center. "We need to be able to identify those at greatest risk."
In the study, researchers analyzed 100 biomarkers in the blood serum drawn from 197 patients with Alzheimer's and 203 people without Alzheimer's.
Participants were assigned a "risk score" based on levels of the various biomarkers, including C-reactive protein and interleukin-10, which have been associated with inflammation. About 22 of the 100 biomarkers emerged as the most significant, according to the study.
The biomarker risk score accurately identified 80 percent of those who had Alzheimer's disease. When Alzheimer's risk factors, such as age, sex, education and genetic information, were included, the test's accuracy was 94 percent.
Conversely, the biomarker risk score accurately identified who did not have the disease 91 percent of the time. When the other Alzheimer's risk factors were included in the score, accuracy was 84 percent.
The study is published in the September issue of the Archives of Neurology.
The study is promising but has limitations, said Dr. Ralph Nixon, director of the NYU Center of Excellence on Brain Aging.
The people in the study already had Alz

Do wall decals ruin or stain the paint when removing them?
I have a few choices for my wall & want to play around with them. I'm worried that when I will peel the decal off it will ruin the paint (my walls are PURE WHITE). Has anyone experienced taking off decals? |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by andrelaplume2 (My Page) on Wed, Aug 11, 10 at 12:29
I would hope the technology that claim they can be removed without damaging the paint hold true. I'd worry a bit about fading over time. We had some posters up for a decade or so before we moved and the color was a bit different behing the poster than the rest of the wall. Point is, you will need to repaint at somepoint! |

Just bought the other day. I went to the range tonight and really liked shooting it. Loved the trigger pull, but just loading was a bear for a little female like me, must be a really tight spring in the mag, I suppose i'm going to need a reloader unless anyone has any other suggestions.

Load your mags up and let them sit until your next range trip, i have done this with every gun I've had and it works great. A quick reloader is a good investment, i bought a universal one that works with my taurus' and my smiths makes reloading a breeze
^^What Bige said. My wife has the Shield 9 and they have some tight springs, especially the last two rounds.

My wife has the 9mm shield and I bought her the Uplula magazine loader its universal and you can load a 9mm up to a .45 with it and now she can load the magazine full with no problem. She loves it. It cost about $34 but it will keep your fingers and thumbs from get sore on the range.
Get a Uplula loader they work great
Thanks for the tips on the Uplula. Got 1 today and went to the range, and it worked like a charm!!
I'm glad to hear you got an uplula. It sure makes those days at the range a whole lot more enjoyable!
So I took my new M&P Shield 40 to the range. I noticed the front sight popped off!!! I asked the guys at the range for suggestions. One guy said just paint it with nail polish. I laughed but considered it lol. I called SW and they said either ship it and have it fixed and shipped within 3-4 weeks or.. paint it with acrylic paint or nail polish!! lol So I had a buddy artist of mine dabble white paint in the sight. He used acrylic paint and said it was almost identical to nail polish. either way it worked! BEFORE AFTER
3 to 4 weeks to fix a little paint on the sight? That's crazy I would have done the same thing that you did. Your artist did a nice job!! You would think that a customer with a warranty would get top priority to get your gun fixed and get it back to you ASAP! I would say 7 to 10 days would be acceptable not 3 to 4 weeks!
Yea.. I guess of the demand right now .. But thx. Des look pretty freakin good! Lol

Pat McQuaid's bid in doubt to remain cycling chief
Updated: April 27, 2013, 10:05 AM ET
Associated Press
LONDON -- Pat McQuaid's bid for a third term as head of cycling's governing body is in doubt, with his role in the Lance Armstrong scandal under scrutiny.
The Irishman secured the nomination of his national cycling organization two weeks ago on the condition he overhauls the UCI following revelations of Armstrong's doping program to win seven Tour de France titles.
But Cycling Ireland withdrew its endorsement Friday and called an emergency meeting. Company secretary Geoff Liffey said ...

- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

Raise Your Voice For Senior Walk
As of right now Seniors that attend Buffalo Gap High School can not have a senior walk because, The teacher in charge is saying that it is a waste of time and money. As of right now seniors have no say in the prom, and senior walk is all that we as seniors have to be recognized for. It is tradition for seniors to walk across the stage to be noticed as being seniors finally. Yes it cuts down on dance time but it should not be canceled over being called a waste of time, that is like saying us being seniors is a waste of time.

NBA sources have confirmed the Phoenix Suns have made initial contact with veteran free agent Jalen Rose and are exploring the possibility of adding him to their roster.
Among other teams interested in Rose are the defending champion Miami Heat. Rose was waived by the New York Knicks earlier this week and will make $16.9 million this season from the Knicks.
The Suns, who have two open spots on their 15-man roster, have $1.54 of their $5 million midlevel exception remaining but are more likely to offer Rose the minimum of $1.1 million, $744,551 of which would count against the Suns' salary cap.
The Suns are $1.57 million under the NBA's luxury tax threshold.

:: WKKG Local News ::
INDOT plans to close State Road 58 between Spraytown and Waymansville on Tuesday so a small drainage structure can be replaced near the Bartholomew-Jackson County line. The work will take place 4.5 miles east of State Road 135. The closure is expected to last 40 days.
Officials say you will need to use the official detour along State Road 258 to State Road 11 at Seymour, then north to Interstate 65 where you can access State Road 58 at Exit 64. Traffic north of the closure should reverse the detour route from Exit 64.
Work should be finished by Nov. 22.

About the Manufacturer
From start to finish, Le Creuset is the ingredient that brings every meal together. In kitchens around the world, Le Creuset has been trusted for over 80 years for its legacy of style and quality. Their brilliant colors and user-friendly cookware have created an unforgettable dining experience. Trusted by those who appreciate every flavor's subtle complexities, Le Creuset invites you to enjoy food and life to the fullest. Since 1925, Le Creuset has designed and manufactured Enameled Cast Iron cookware at their foundry in Fresnoy-Le-Grand, Northern France. It began by hand-casting molten cast iron in sand molds, still the most delicate stage of the production process. After casting, each piece of cookware is polished, sanded by hand, and scrutinized for imperfections. Once declared suitable for enameling, the items are sprayed with two separate coats of enamel and fired at a temperature of 1472F. The enamel then becomes extremely hard and durable, making it almost completely resistant to damage during normal use. Since much of the finishing is done by hand, each piece of Enameled Cast Iron cookware is completely unique.Le Creuset Enamel On Steel 1.25 Qt. Demi Tea Kettle

Perfect Sandra from Helena, OH– Verified Buyer This is the second tea kettle I have purchased in two months. The first tea kettle was very expensive and started to rust within two weeks of using it. The Demi Tea Kettle looks nice, is enameled on steel as stated, and seems to have no flaws so far. We like the size and the fact that it heats quickly and has a whistle. My husband loves it. We've only had it about two weeks, so I'm hoping it isn't too good to be true. We bought it in white because we will be redecorating our kitchen next year and have no idea what our color scheme will be. |

International Edition
You've heard of Siri. You may be familiar with Google Now.
But what about MindMeld?
The app, built by Expect Labs, bills itself as "a smarter way to have conversations on your iPad."
It hasn't been released yet, but tech giants Samsung, Intel and Telefonica have just joined on as the startup's latest inventors.
This is how it works. When you talk, MindMeld listens so it can search and bring up information that's relevant to your discussion.
But after looking at the product demo online, it's easy to see why some call it "Siri on steroids" - a voice-activated search engine that hangs on to your every word.
There's something deeply fascinating and creepy about the technology that tracks everything you say. Why would I want to use it? And what do I give up for using it and similar tracking technologies like Google Glass?
CNN contributor Nicholas Thompson of the NewYorker.com says by using such hyper-smart technology, we are trading in our privacy in return for utility. There's always resistance at first, but eventually we grow to accept it.
What's your take?
Wait, the iTunes Store is 10 years old?
It's true, the digital media store was launched a decade ago this week - on April 28, 2003.
These days, it sells TV shows, movies, apps and books. But back then, it only sold music and marked a sea change for the recording industry.
iTunes became the largest music retailer on the planet by 2010. According to NPD, iTunes is currently responsible for 63% of all digital music sales - putting it well ahead of rivals like Amazon and Google.
The iTunes music store may still be the leader of the digital music arena but according to Nilay Patel, Managing Editor of The Verge, the cracks are starting to show.
The business model has hardly changed over ten years and a number of music streaming and subscription options are out there, grabbing the attention of a younger demographic.
After a decade of success, can Apple continue its dominance in digital music?
With competition coming from Pandora, Spotify and others that stream music online, Patel says, "iTunes itself needs to change to become a more Internet-centric service."
Apple is starting to move in that direction. But there's no time to lose.
You've seen the report by now. Research firm IDC says global shipments of PCs fell 14% last quarter - nearly twice as bad as expected.
The report says consumers are putting their money on mobile devices instead, adding that the sector is at "a critical crossroads."
OK. PC sales are declining, but is the PC really going away?
Regular News Stream contributor Nicholas Thompson, editor of the NewYorker.com, is a defender of this technology in decline.
He points out that PC sales will still outnumber tablet sales in the next two years and that, paradoxically, one of the reasons why PC sales are declining is that they simply last longer.
"In 5 years, when we fully enter the mobile era, there will be many of us with desktops," says Thompson.
Call me a PC-hugger. I plan to be one of them.
Inevitably, I met a booth babe with a t-shirt that read, "Call Me Maybe."
I'm at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona - home of fine food, football and phones with the biggest mobile industry gathering of the year.
Why am I here? Our world is changing fast. We are at a critical inflection point as desktop computing shifts to mobile, and smart mobile devices become more and more ubiquitous. We are ushering in a new digital era where everyone will be on the move and always connected.
The change is happening so fast, blink and you may miss it. It's already challenging the authority of established computing giants like Microsoft and pre-smartphone era stalwarts like Nokia.
Chinese tech firms Huawei and ZTE are chipping away at the authority of BlackBerry. Open-source operating systems are emerging as players in the race for mobile OS supremacy. Messaging apps like WhatsApp are stealing revenues away from network providers.
So I'm here to determine what's happening and try to anticipate what's next before reality slams me in the face.
So, here goes. These are the three top emerging mobile trends I've picked up here in Barcelona:
Most top tech brand showcase their latest products at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain. Of course, one big name is missing. Apple never attends shows like this.
And it feels like other companies are starting to follow suit.
The Verge's David Pierce says it feels like Samsung is starting to pull away. He notes that the Galaxy S4 will come out in two weeks in New York, though it did announce the Galaxy Note 8 in Barcelona. HTC unveiled its flagship phone last week. Google executives are in attendance, but the company does not have booth and announced its new Chromebook last week. And Pierce feels Nokia fell flat, failing to announce anything big.
So is the Mobile World Congress going the way of Las Vegas's Consumer Electronics Show?
Pierce says, ""There's a lot here but it seems like a show like this, and even CES, they're becoming traditional trade shows again where it's industry people coming to getting to know each other and make deals. There's a putting green upstairs just for making deals. It seems like, in a sense of big consumer show where we see the really exciting stuff, it's starting to slow or at least lull."
And there are many movers-and-shakers at MWC. Check out our Day 3 highlights below:
Foursquare CEO Dennis Crowley
PayPal President David Marcus
BlackBerry's Vivek Bhardwaj, the man behind BB10 OS
Plus, a fun look at how FC Barcelona reaches its fans through apps!
As you might imagine, mobile phones are front and center at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain. We've already highlighted Nokia's big push with cheaper phones.
Nokia CEO Stephen Elop also hinted the company is looking to launch a tablet. He told Kristie Lu Stout, "We're considering what's the right way to enter, if we were to enter. How do we differentiate in that market. How do we as confidently stand up with a tablet as we do with the Lumia smartphones. We want to make sure we understand all of that."
Three of the biggest new products at the show this year are tablets. They are the latest offerings from Hewlett-Packard, Samsung and Sony.
HP is back in the tablet market with the 7-inch Slate 7. But CNNMoney's Adrian Covert says, "(It) is not a premium-grade tablet, nor a remarkably cheap device."
Samsung's Galaxy Note 8 takes aim at Apple's iPad Mini. Covert calls the Galaxy Note 8 "fast and speedy." But he notes that while 8 inches is small for a tablet, it's huge for a phone. It is still unclear if the phone-enabled version will be sold in the U.S.
Covert says Sony's Xperia Tablet Z could be the best tablet at the Mobile World Congress. And at 10.1 inches, it is also one of the biggest.
Among our other Day 2 highlights:
Discussing the rise of Chinese smartphones
Nvidia's Project SHIELD and its new vision for gaming on the go
Sitting down with Greg Sullivan, Microsoft's Senior Marketing Manager
News Stream is at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain. It's the mobile industry's biggest event of the year.
In the coming days, we will speak to the biggest names in the business, as we look for the software and gadgets that will dominate our lives in the years ahead.
On Day 1, we talked to Google's Matias Duarte. He's the Director of Android User Experience. And his description of the latest OS is both awesome and slightly scary.
Duarte says, "We've been rolling out amazing, powerful new features that are almost like a superpower. Like Google now with Jellybean. Your phone is actually your companion. It knows what you want to search for before you do and can offer that information."
It's hard to imagine that the second-best quarterly profit ever made by a U.S. company wasn't good enough for investors.
But Apple isn't an ordinary company. And signs that the tech giant's unbelievable growth might be slowing is enough for investors to flee the stock. FULL POST
Technology isn't just part of News Stream, it's also something we love to cover.
So when we were asked to put together a special edition of the show with the top tech stories of the year, it was both very easy to pick the stories we thought were important... and very hard to leave out stories we loved but just couldn't fit.
You can watch the whole show here, divided into six parts.
PART 1: Breaking down the smartphone Patent Wars with The Verge's Nilay Patel; Microsoft launches Windows 8
My name was on the waiting list for the first batch of Raspberry Pi machines long before I traveled to Cambridge to meet Eben Upton.
Something about the tiny computer sent me back to my childhood days. It could plug into your TV, it could use the same programming language that I used in primary school. It was all very retro.
Only after I got my hands on one did I realize how useful the little thing actually is. At first I was excited about using it as an introduction to Linux and to refresh my dormant programming skills. It was only after I put some media software on it that it really became part of the furniture. FULL POST
Catch News Stream with Kristie Lu Stout weekdays at 8pm HKT/ 12pm GMT / 8am ET on CNN International.

Thanks !
Great Template glws
Thanks! much appreciated
Clean and lovely! Good luck
I like the clean style. Nice job.
Thank you!
Very minimal, looks nice! Good luck
This is an amazing little template mate. Nice work!!
Thanks mike!
i like both tewday and stevie, i want to buy one but i can't make up my mind, they seem identical, what are the differences ? great work, thanks 2u !
Hey thanks for the comment. The two themes are very similar. The differences are mainly small design tweaks. The main difference being the slider. Some people wanted small design tweaks to Stevie so thats where Tewday came from. Both have very similar features & functionality.
yes like social media icons in the footer… are there different captions options ? does tewday have the same big square captions (with links) displayed in stevie ? Thanks again.
The slider in tewday is much more simple than the one in stevie. It doesn't support links & description captions
The slider can have as many images in it as you want and the caption will only appear if you have specified one for that image. The theme comes with documentation of how to add images to the slider, and if you are having any trouble with it I provide support via email as well
My team loves this layout for our PR tumblr! We love the slider but were having problems with the compatibility of our photos. Depending on the window size, some of the photos are cropped weirdly. If there a way to prevent this? To see what I mean please check www.reprecordsmusic.com
Thank you!
Hi Thomas! I'd like to get in contact with you because I'm interested in your template. I just have a few questions though, regarding picture sizes and integration. Would you be able to get in touch with me please? Let me know, thanks!
I'm having trouble getting this uploaded. I'm not an expert at HTML, but I'm putting in the code in the customization and it's all completely plain text. What else do I need to do?
Hi I'm having trouble getting this template on my tumblr. I sent you an e-mail. Could you help me? I'm not an expert at HTML or CSS. Thanks! Nina

Repeatability is a cornerstone of the scientific process: only if my colleagues can reproduce my work should they trust its veracity. Excepting special cases, in applied Computer Science reproducing published work should be as simple as going to the authors' website, downloading their code and data, typing "make" and seeing if the results correspond to the published ones.
To investigate the extent to which Computer Science researchers are willing to share their code and data, and the extend to which this code will actually build with reasonable effort, we performed a study of 613 papers in eight ACM conferences (ASPLOS'12, CCS'12, OOPSLA'12, OSDI'12, PLDI'12, SIGMOD'12, SOSP'11, VLDB'12) and five journals (TACO'9, TISSEC'15, TOCS'30, TODS'37, TOPLAS'34).
We originally put up the first version of the results so that the reviewers of our submitted paper could have access to our raw data, code, and technical report, in case they wished to review it. It was never publicly announced. Nevertheless, the site became public knowledge, and we received feedback from the community. As a result, we made another pass over the data and are conducting a survey. A second version of the technical report is being written, and preliminary results for the second version are available.
The first version of the technical report is available "Measuring Reproducibility in Computer Systems Research"
