Oxygen delivery in many animals is enabled by the formation of unicellular capillary tubes that penetrate target tissues to facilitate gas exchange. We show that the tortuous outgrowth of tracheal unicellular branches towards their target tissues is controlled by complex local interactions with target cells. Slit, a phylogenetically conserved axonal guidance signal, is expressed in several tracheal targets and is required both for attraction and repulsion of tracheal branches. Robo and Robo2 are expressed in different branches, and are both necessary for the correct orientation of branch outgrowth. At the CNS midline, Slit functions as a repellent for tracheal branches and this function is mediated primarily by Robo. Robo2 is necessary for the tracheal response to the attractive Slit signal and its function is antagonized by Robo. We propose that the attractive and repulsive tracheal responses to Slit are mediated by different combinations of Robo and Robo2 receptors on the cell surface.

An active and healthy brain is a vital component of quality of life. Constantly stimulating your mind will lead to more happiness, boosted energy, career success and a passion for the world around you – not to mention that it can help stave off debilitating age-related conditions like memory loss, dementia and even Alzheimer's Disease.
Just like you plan an exercise regimen and healthy diet, you should also come up with a system for keeping your brain active. By far the best way to achieve this is to adopt a policy of continued learning throughout your adult life. Learning a new skill or talent is one of the most fulfilling, rewarding and empowering activities you can do; it's an investment in yourself. And learning isn't just about academia, certificates, classrooms or tests – it can cover anything from card tricks to accounting to playing a new instrument.
Make ongoing education your brain health goal. Try to make learning something new a part of your everyday life, rather than a rare occurrence. Constantly seek out new information, read about new fields and topics, interact with people from different cultures. The internet is a fantastic resource for this – a virtually limitless depository where you can find practically every type of learning material you can imagine, either completely free, or for a small fee.
For example, hundreds of world-renowned universities like MIT, Harvard, and Oxford are making full courses and degree programs available for free to anyone in the world – so you can log on and study astrobiology, Shakespearean literature or web development with some of the greatest minds in the world. On top of that, the web is filled with learning communities of all sorts, many of which charge a small monthly fee ($5 to $10) for a wealth of resources, tools and support. If you ever wanted to learn Japanese, master the guitar or pick up a new craft, you don't even need to leave the house.
Here are five more tips for keeping your brain in good shape.

You may have read our blog a few weeks back about the robot dog/drone/potential death machine that was created by the US military, if you did catch it, you'll know that this 'Black Phoenix' from 3D artist Vitaly Bulgarov project is not far away from being very much a spot on prediction of the near future.
Black Phoenix, is basically a fictional military corporation - that creates badass robots, from 'semi civilian drones' to the formidable looking 'multipurpose weaponry drones'.
This CG project is a collaboration Vitaly Bulgarov photographer Maria Skotnikova, and the images here represent "10 Days of Mech" session. An intense week and a half, where every day for 10 days, a mech design was created in 3D! What are your thoughts VFX fans?

A New Classroom Building
Our current challenge is to build a new classroom building for the Kaun Khlong Primary School. The first 5-room building was finished in September 2011.
The temple that is adjacent to the school donated the land for the new building. In July 2009 we financed a project to prepare the land for the new classroom. This involved moving fill from a pit (which was developed into a pond) to the school site. The pond is now used by the villagers for drinking water, laundry, and raising fish. This project cost $4419. We received a nice letter from the School Principal and Commune Chief thanking us for funding the project.
Village and school officials held a series of meetings to determine the specifications for the new building:
The first 5-classroom building is complete, thanks to 205 generous contributors and an interest-free loan from our dear friend, Katy Guard.

VfB Stuttgart manager Thomas Schneider has confirmed Denmark international midfielder William Kvist - a target for Fulham - is leaving the Mercedes-Benz-Arena.
The 28-year-old has been linked with numerous clubs including West Ham and French Ligue 1 outfit Evian, but Fulham are understood to be leading the race for his signature.
Kvist is an established member of the Denmark squad, with 44 caps for his country. He is out of favour at Stuttgart, but has a deal that ties him to the club until June 2015.
Sky sources understand Kvist is available for loan with an option to buy in the summer, in a deal worth £1.2million.
Schneider told Germany newspaper Stuttgarter Zeitung: "William Kvist feels unsettled at the club. He is looking for a new sort of competition.
"William has not been a first-team regular recently and, of course, as he is a Danish international, he requires to play regular football."

Dave! mortgage rates are LOW!!!
My house is paid off (sorry Dave), but has anyone seen mortgage rates lately?
Just getting off the phone w/ my bank's mortgage person, I can get refinanced at 5.35% (30 yr) with only a $2,500 fee...out the door.
When did this happen? I thought low interest loans were history?
Dave, you have this "cash is king" philosophy. Do you suggest that I do this? I'm guessing your answer is yes.
Although I have no idea about what to do with the cash-out I would receive from this, that interest rate is very compelling.
I do NOT like debt of any kind, but it could be argued that in this environment... a 5.35% 30yr loan looks crazy cheap.
Should I refinance?
Hi again, well-behaved kelton,
If you plan to borrow to invest for any but a short term, I strongly suggest that you arrange an iron-clad non-variable rate deal. It seems to me that, with a large proportion of local debt held abroad, soon the borrowers will be forced to pay much higher rates if they hope to seduce the lenders into parting with their precious money.
I bought my first stock, an oil co., about 45 years ago: it was bought out, after a few years.
I bought a non-equity mutual fund, for a special situation, about 34 years ago. Later I bought various equity-based mutual funds - mainly about the time that I sold a variety of them, 25 years ago: most recent such purchase was about 17 years ago.
Despite mutual funds' managers' claims to skills at asset management, very few of them have proved able to outperform the market averages consistently ... but they get their fixed percentage of the funds under their management, whether *or not* they succeed in producing above average - or any - increased values for the owners of the money that they are managing.
I've bought only a few stocks over several recent years, thinking the prices too high, until about 2005, then more early in 2006, when I bought our largest telco, then more of it near the end of last year, prior to the conclusion of a buyout proposal to take it private at a higher price. Now, after much huffing and puffing ... that deal appears to have fallen through: share price dropped to below my cost for either purchase.
As many major Canadian miners have been bought out in recent years, I bought shares of a substantial miner early this year and more recently, after a substantial drop in price, using most of my available liquid assets. Still more drop, since.
Unwisely, in a market moving down, I bought some small, speculative companies' shares last year and earlier this year: *not* to do that in an uncertain market! Their prices have gone down, too.
It appeared that the telco deal would conclude soon, providing some more funds with which to invest for the next while ... but probably that's not going to happen.
My long-time unused Line of Credit (fully secured by mutual fund and stock certificates) rate was 4.75% (variable) a few weeks ago.
I'll likely draw on it soon to buy some more carefully chosen stocks.
As I expect to get no fresh money from the telco deal and thus expect that I'll draw on the line of credit sooner than I'd expected earlier, and it looks as though the low market may well persist longer than I'd expected, I'm having some more share and mutual fund certificates issued in order to allow myself a higher limit on the Line of Credit.
How soon will I likely buy again?
Don't know - probably after about six months. Or - after it appears fairly conclusive that the market's recent successive drops have finished. If there appear to be some bargains available: as one mutual fund manager said, 25 years ago, "I like to buy a dollar for 60 cents".
How much?
Don't know.
How long will I continue?
Don't know that, either. Death/prolonged illness hasn't given any indication as to when s/he/they may show up.
Maybe I'll notify you when one of them does.
I hope that you're having a week that you can remember with appreciation and (continuing) thankfulness.
ole joyful
P.S. Business/markets don't like uncertainty.
Our Prime Minister became so as he's the chosen leader of the political party that won the most seats in Parliament following an election about 6 weeks ago, an elction that he called unnecessarily early ... but his party holds less than a majority of votes in Parliament. Last week, a couple of weeks after the new Parlaiment started, the financial minister made a report that so angered the three disparate Opposition parties ...
.. that they've (improbably) united ...
... and may win a vote of non-confidence in his governing capability, early next week ... it was to have been last Monday, but he forced a postponement.
Now, he may shut down the Parliament for a while, to avoid getting outvoted (the equivalent of fired). He has a minority of votes, remember?
But, lacking some major changes, he may get fired soon, anyway.
While I'm watching ...
... I think that I'll not be buying any Canadian stocks for a while.
Canadian Dollar being undervalued ... and U.S. Dollar overvalued, I don't want to exchange to buy U.S. stocks now, either. Unless I can borrow with U.S. Dollar account.
Better buy gold (stocks), I guess.
Gold will soon be worth more than fog-backed paper dollars.
ole joyfoul
Well, mortgage rates may be low, but we found out to our chagrin that we can't refinance. Our house is worth substantially less than what we paid for it.
We're in year 3 of a 5/1 ARM. We're going to spend the next couple of years tucking away as much money as possible, so that when our interest rate does start increasing, we'll have money to be able to make our payments (our loan has a cap on how much the interest rate can increase per year, so it can't go up that much, but still, better safe than sorry) I guess we'll just ride this out for a few years, and hope the market turns around so that eventually we can refinance.
Unlike some people, we make more than enough money to be able to afford our payments, so I'm not concerned about losing our house...we just made a poor choice on a mortgage so that we could save a little money in the short term to cover remodeling costs, with the expectation of refinancing in a couple/few years. We had no idea the housing market would tank. Bummer.
Hi Kelton,
(And thanks IMMENSELY to ALL who have been so supportive, both online and off... both with brilliantly thought out words and (exponentially more) with nothing to say/write at all but a 'touch'... my wife & I have been surviving on the breaths of oxygen from each of your thoughts...)
There are a variety of different advisors & 'gurus' out there... and Dave Ramsey is EXCELLENT... for a specific category of consumer. Basically; the financially immature who normally make 'budget decisions' by how much money is left in their pockets (and therefore who are not mature enough to manage more complex conversations about good debt versus bad debt, and the conservative protection of well-used leverage.)
SO... Dave Ramsey & Suze Ormon BELONG... they are critically GOOD for a certain segment of society (a frighteningly large segment, no doubt.) They are serving to keep a large portion of the lowest denominators from becoming hopelessly enslaved beyond their own comprehension...
HOWEVER... Ramsey & Ormon aren't offering well-developed principles & strategies for the "financial adult."
My house is paid off (sorry Dave), but has anyone seen mortgage rates lately?
HEY... I believe (correct me if I am wrong) that in our previous threads I had actually advised YOU, for YOUR particular emotional state, to go ahead & deposit your money into your real estate equity... no?
Just getting off the phone w/ my bank's mortgage person, I can get refinanced at 5.35% (30 yr) with only a $2,500 fee...out the door. When did this happen? I thought low interest loans were history?
Now... WHY did you have that "thought"? CERTAINLY WAS NOT from reading ME. I've been telling people we'd not seen the lowest 30 FRMs back in 2003 when they hit the 4.9%s, and that we can expect to re-touch or even dip below those.
Dave, you have this "cash is king" philosophy. Do you suggest that I do this? I'm guessing your answer is yes.
NO. YOU, in particular, have explained very clearly (both explicitly and implicitly) that you do not trust yourself in the effective management of your cash, and that emotionally it "burns a hole in your pocket."
Unless you've been doing some DRAMATIC emotional/financial therapy work in the last few months, my advice remains the same (for you specifically.)
Although I have no idea about what to do with the cash-out I would receive from this, that interest rate is very compelling.
That is because you are only looking at one side of the coin; the COST-of-money side. If you aren't prepared and capable of managing the GROWTH/PROTECTION-of-money side, then this is just a shiny stinkbait on the devil's fishing line looking for folks like you.
I do NOT like debt of any kind, but it could be argued that in this environment... a 5.35% 30yr loan looks crazy cheap. Should I refinance?
Cost-of-money rates WILL (and are already) getting cheaper... but even FREE debt, for YOU, is a bad idea for the reasons above.
Stay the course, my friend. My support goes with you.
Dave Donhoff

The "touchdown baby back ribs," worth the six points, fell in smoky hunks off the bone. Served with crunchy, mildly flavored steak fries, these generous, popular pigskins (so to speak) pleased everyone who tried them. But the most valuable players were chosen from the menu's World Series-section. "Out at the plate," twelve ounces of center-cut sirloin, was an inch-thick steak, seared and seasoned. Although served medium rather than the requested well done, the quality of the meat was commendable. The "suicide squeeze rib-eye," also of great appeal, was again a bit underdone, rare instead of medium-rare. The cut, however, was superb, rich and juicy. Accompanied by roast potatoes and a highly credible Caesar salad, this meal deserves notice not only for its prime taste but for its reasonable price. In fact, for the portions, all the steak dinners -- the "New York Yankee," "Hall of Fame filet," "Home run prime ribs," and "Grand slam porterhouse" -- present worthwhile dining bargains.
The Caesar salad, featured with grilled salmon as a special entree, lost allure with the addition of the fish. Though the cheese and anchovy settled nicely on the cool romaine, the salmon tasted less than fresh. The brownie sundae we split for dessert was likewise stale, unpleasantly dry and tasting vaguely of freezer burn.
For the record, I still haven't deciphered the "hit and run" entree: "With shrimp pitching, chicken attempts to advance linguini alfredo to second (now you're in scoring position)." But I do believe I have defined, if not the role of all women in a sports bar, at least my role in the Marlins Steakhouse & Sports Bar. I'll be the one dismantling the house that Ruth built A the "New York Yankee" strip steak. I always was handy with a steak knife.

Kansas' rolling-budget experiment
Kansas lawmakers, at the request of Gov. Sam Brownback, this year passed the first two-year budget in recent history.
That means the state has a spending plan -- like it or not, talk among yourselves -- for the fiscal year that starts this July 1, and for the fiscal year that starts July 1, 2014.
Now, does that seem to be a big deal? We'll see.
The key to a two-year budget, of course, is that in its second year, we figure that the basics of operating state government and providing the services to Kansans that they want are pretty much sketched out.
There will be changes, of course, something always comes up, maybe a bridge washes out (cause for celebration in western Kansas) or we learn the state has put more money into some program it really needs. There will be changes, count on it.
But the two-year budget also presents an interesting political morality test for the administration. There are two-year budgets and there are two-year budgets.
So, one way to do it is to budget for this year and next year and then, just after the next gubernatorial election, budget for the first two years of a new term ... whoever is governor. That's a pretty standard two-year budget. When a new governor comes into office, he/she gets to plan out -- quickly because the governor still will be moving into Cedar Crest while assembling a government -- just what the new administration's policy issues are going to be.
Fresh start -- except for those remaining six months of the fiscal year before July 1. And those six months probably give a new governor fairly important "breathing room" while becoming acclimated to running things.
But, say that two-year budget is a "rolling budget." That means every year, the Legislature and governor add another year, which means the currently planned spending doesn't just end at the end of Brownback's first term as governor, but continues into the first year of his second term -- or the first year of a new governor if Brownback isn't re-elected.
That leaves an extra year of the footprint of the current governor that slops into what might be the first year of a new governor's term. If Brownback is re-elected, it means five years from now at the end of his second term when he can't seek re-election, whoever becomes governor is pretty well locked into the spending plan for the first year of a new term.
Anyone wondering whether a governor, in his last term, might want to make sure the incoming governor doesn't mess up some grand plan of the outgoing governor?
Now, maybe Kansas has its first two-year budget. But it will be worthwhile next January, at the State of the State address, to find out whether the budget rolls ... or not.

Threatened Miscarriage
Pregnancy is a wonderful time for both you and your partner. Planning for baby and watching his fetal development is an exciting and precious experience. However, pregnancy can also be at time that is fraught with anxiety. In particular, many pregnant women worry about suffering a miscarriage. If you have noticed bleeding during the early stages of your pregnancy, you may be suffering from what is known as a threatened miscarriage. A threatened miscarriage can put your baby at risk for miscarriage. If you are displaying any of the signs and symptoms of threatened miscarriage, visit with your health care provider as soon as possible.
What is a Threatened Miscarriage?
A threatened miscarriage describes a pregnancy that may be at increased risk for experiencing a miscarriage. Any woman who experiences vaginal bleeding during the first 20 weeks of pregnancy is described as having a threatened miscarriage. Also known as a threatened spontaneous abortion, threatened miscarriages are actually quite common.
In fact, more than 30% of all pregnant women experience some type of vaginal bleeding in the first 20 weeks of pregnancy, and most of these women go on to experience full-term pregnancies. Threatened miscarriages most commonly occur before the 12th week of pregnancy.
What are the Symptoms of a Threatened Miscarriage?
The most common sign of a threatened miscarriage is vaginal bleeding occurring before the 20th week of pregnancy. This vaginal bleeding may vary in appearance. It might be:
- bright red
- light pink
- brown
Vaginal bleeding may also appear in the form of spotting or as a much heavier flow. Other common threatened miscarriage symptoms are:
- back pain, particularly in the lower back
- stomach cramps
What Causes a Threatened Miscarriage?
In most women, threatened miscarriage causes are never determined. However, there are a variety of factors that may be contributing to your vaginal bleeding. Vaginal bleeding is often the result of:
- uterine fibroids, polyps, or cysts
- infections, such as STDS
- cervical inflammation occurring during sex
- ectopic pregnancy
- placental complications
Diagnosing a Threatened Miscarriage
If you are experiencing any type of bleeding during your pregnancy, it is important that you visit with your health care provider. She can help to determine whether or not you are at risk for experiencing a miscarriage.
Your doctor will likely perform a pelvic exam to help check the size and shape of your uterus. She will also check to see if your cervix has dilated (widened) or effaced (thinned out). Cervical dilation and effacement are generally signs of a miscarriage.
You may also be offered a pregnancy ultrasound, particularly if you are more than eight weeks pregnant. A pregnancy ultrasound uses sound waves to help create a picture of your baby and your uterus. This can be used to monitor your baby�s growth and fetal heart rate. A blood test known as the Complete Blood Count (CBC) may also be performed, to help assess exactly how much blood you have lost. This blood test counts the amount of red and white blood cells in your blood.
Treating a Threatened Miscarriage
Unfortunately, there are no medications or treatments that can stop vaginal bleeding. However, your health care provider may recommend certain courses of action:
- Wait and See: If your bleeding is minor and your baby appears healthy, your health care provider may suggest that you wait and see if there are any changes in your vaginal bleeding.
- Pelvic Rest: In order to prevent any trauma to the cervix, your health care provider may recommend pelvic rest. You will be asked to stop using tampons and douches and to abstain from sex for a specific period of time.
- Reduced Activity: You may be advised to reduce the amount of activity that you are engaging in everyday. Vigorous exercise and other rigorous activities could put you at risk for a miscarriage. Bed rest however, is no longer recommended as treatment for a threatened miscarriage.
- Progesterone: Though an uncommon treatment, you may be given progesterone to help relax your uterine muscles and reduce your risk of miscarriage.
Will a Threatened Miscarriage End in Miscarriage?
If you are diagnosed with having a threatened miscarriage, try to remain calm. Vaginal bleeding is pretty normal during the first 20 weeks of pregnancy, and the majority of women go on to deliver healthy and happy babies. Only 30% of women experiencing a threatened miscarriage actually lose their pregnancies. However, it is important that you are aware of the warning signs of a miscarriage. Call your health care provider as soon as possible if you experience:
- increased vaginal bleeding
- blood clots
- weakness or dizziness
- fever or chills
Preventing a Threatened Miscarriage
It is very difficult to prevent vaginal bleeding from occurring during pregnancy, however, the best way to reduce your risk is to maintain regular prenatal health appointments. This will allow you and your health care provider to remain up-to-date on any health concerns.

Students for Recovery is a group that has dedicated itself to spreading the awareness and knowledge of the possibility of recovery from many debilitating forms of mental illness.
We are a group of undergraduate and graduate students studying in the Psychology and Social Work fields in various universities across the United States. We are each very passionate about the topics involved in what is called 'Abnormal Psychology'.
Of particular interest to us, as pragmatists, is the possibility of partial or full recovery from many of the psychological diseases that afflict so many of our friends, family, and loved ones. We believe the most important step towards recovery is the attainment of knowledge. Without the realization that recovery is available, we would never step foot on the path towards the lessening of suffering.
Please use the menu's on the right side of the website to visit the various pages we have included for your convenience. We have covered in-depth some of the major illnesses that people somewhere encounter and experience almost every day of their lives. May they be of great service to all!

This Week's Market Buzz
- Details
- Published: Wednesday, 21 November 2012 15:10
- According to the Winona Daily News, Winona County, Wis., will re-publish Environmental Assessment Worksheet drafts for two proposed frac sand mines after staff discovered an error in the public comment process. In the drafts, the county said public comments on the reviews should be sent to the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. County staff confirmed Tuesday that the county will accept the comments – the MPCA doesn't handle them. The county plans to republish the review drafts with the correct information.
- The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) in a memorandum clarified what permits frac sand producers need. They are:
- Air: Mines and processing plants need air permits. Silica exposure is a public health concern, and stray dust has been a source of complaints, so DNR has been sending information to mine operators on how to control it.
- Water: All mines need a stormwater permit. Those using a lot of water need a high-capacity well permit. And if they're near wetlands or surface waters, other DNR regulations may apply.
- Local regulations. Local governments exert control through zoning, but many mines are in towns that don't have zoning. Where there is zoning, towns can regulate issues like hours of operation, truck routes and speeds, covering of truck beds, mine depth and road repair liability.
- Reclamation. Mines have to abide by NR 135, the nonmetallic mining reclamation rule. It's administered by the counties with DNR oversight.
- The Wisconsin Public Radio News reported that frac sand mining companies face a $1 million-per-day fine if they dig in the town of Kinnickinnik during the next year. The penalty is part of a sand mining moratorium, and is the most expensive fine the industry faces in the state. The frac sand mining moratorium bans any new mines or processing facilities up to one year. It's meant to put a halt on fast-growing industries and give a municipality time to study the industry and possibly craft regulations for it. At least four counties have passed moratoriums, as have around 19 cities, towns and villages.

Hey everyone sorry for the super slow lack of updates lately. It's entirely my fault. It's because I've been insanely busy getting ready for this weekend. There are 3 conventions I've had to worry about this weekend. I'll be personally attending San Jose's Fanime convention. Then in Anime Boston this weekend Kroze will have some Snafu merch at the Yugioh Adridged Booth. Also at my Fanime artist alley tables I'll have some VG Cats merchandise and some Girl Genius books for sale. All while up in Toronto Scott Ramsoomair will be doing another convention called Anime North.
So a quick recap if you get a chance stop buy and visit me at Fanime in San Jose.
Scott Ramsoomair of VG Cats at Anime north in Toronto,
and Kroze from Yugioh Abridged at Anime Boston... in Boston.
But yeah I still haven't gone through the editor and colorist submissions entirely. Once we get that settled we have a lot of Naruto comics finished and ready to go. I have some MyPanda's finished I just need time to upload them. Then we have a bunch of new comics I need to add super soon to... But I have Akon the very next weekend after Fanime so we'll see how much I get done next week. Conventions never stop I swear.

It's one of the most important things any parent, grandparent, or caregiver to a small child can do. It's called the Tdap and it's a shot, and today, I rolled up my own sleeve, not just for my own reason, but because it's an On Your Side way to letting you know that it can save the life of someone you love.
It's not your typical father and son activity, but a few hours ago my son Kyle and I went to the Rowan County Health Department to get Tdap shots. Kyle and wife Anna are expecting a daughter in just three weeks, and I'm pretty excited about it.
Anna told me a few weeks ago that I had to get the shot.
Here's how it worked; we registered at this desk, then went down the hall to check in and waited to be called back. that first part only took about ten minutes. In another five we were in the room with the nurse and the needle.
The shot is important for what health workers call a "circle of protection." That's everyone who will come into contact with an infant. And if you wonder why it's such a big deal, just ask Rowan County Public Health specialist Nina Oliver.
"It's a combination vaccine it protects against tetanus, diptheria, and pertussis, (whooping cough), which is the one we are most concerned about, worried about," Oliver told me.
Whooping cough cases were on the rise last year, it's gotten better recently, but is still a very serious issue, that's why health officials are stressing the importance of the shots.
"Most susceptible would be infants and children. 50% of children who have whooping cough end up in the hospital, so it can cause death," Oliver added.
For me, the safety of my soon to be born granddaughter is at the top of the list, but daughter in law Anna gave me another very compelling reason. She said if I hadn't taken the shot…
"You would have not been able to be around the baby without the whooping cough shot," Anna told, emphatically.
That was enough to seal it for me!
If you are planning to get the shot, you should know that is no longer offered free at area health departments, unless you meet certain guidelines. Since I have health insurance, my cost was $53.17, but I will be able to get at least part of that back when I file the claim.
You can also schedule an appointment with your primary care physician to get the shot in the office.
In Rowan County specifically, an effort is underway to provide the vaccination for school children.
The Rowan County Health Department has partnered with Rowan-Salisbury Schools to hold three clinics.
The first, set for September 11 from 11:00am until 7:00pm, will be for up and students heading to kindergarten. Parents are urged to call 704-216-8782 to find out more and to schedule an appointment.
Tdaps will be provided for rising sixth graders on September 17 and September 26 from 2:30 pm until 6:30 pm on both days. For more information parents can call 704-216-8786.
The Tdap vaccine is required for rising sixth graders.

MNF Review: Miami's offensive line
November, 12, 2013
Steve Muench | ESPN Insider
Miami offensive tackle Jonathan Martin's decision to leave the team and the organization's decision to suspend offensive guard Richie Incognito for conduct detrimental to the team has dominated the NFL conversation the past two weeks.
It's still a developing story, but it's fair to say that the Dolphin organization is learning a tough lesson; building a team isn't just a matter of assembling the best talent through the draft and free agency. Factoring in character and personality are critical.
Without Martin or Incognito in the lineup, the Dolphins rushed for two yards on four carries against what has been a stingy Tampa Bay run defense. The Buccaneers also finished with two sacks and recorded eight quarterback hurries while delivering some big hits on Miami's 2012 first-round pick, quarterback Ryan Tannehill.

The Goddess & The Nobleman
The Goddess is the female example of living the connection of inner love, self-worth, wisdom, peace and strength. The Nobleman is the male example of living the connection of inner love, peace, self-worth, wisdom, peace and strength. When the Goddess joins together with the Nobleman, they are already ignited and connected to their own fire and the passion moving through their bodies. This is a powerful union.
Step into the shoes of the Goddess or Nobleman and feel the parts of you that are woven within these words. Touch that part in you that holds you back from feeling open.
Who Is The Goddess?
The Goddess is connected to her own natural beauty.
She allows her heart to be open.
Her energy is light and you feel her strength and courage
in her silence.
You know her commitment in her eyes and
her inspiration in the truth in the way she is living.
She does not wear her pain for the world to see,
she takes care of it, yet she is not afraid to
share it without blame.
She is not afraid of the future as she lives
present in the moment.
She's connected to her life force which unites
her passionate living and wisdom as she speaks.
You know the beautiful dreams are reality
because she's been there and has experienced it.
She has melted the armor around her heart,
feel the softness.
Her eyes see the magnificence of you
when she looks into your eyes.
She listens to you because the information that you are sharing with her is important
and she hears you because she knows herself.
Her silence exudes acknowledgement of her presence in the moment and her soul is giving you the
audience you deserve.
She recognizes your talents and lifts them up in her heart.
When you are with her you feel safe to be
all that you are.
She reveals herself to you as equal yet you know
that she is touching
the divinity within the Goddess that she is.
She does not have to convince anyone of anything
… she lives it.
Her authenticity creates a transparency and you
know that she lives from truth.
She trembles with you in her compassionate heart
as she believes in the healing of the moment.
Her wisdom comes from all the ages,
not from the intellect of the mind.
There are no shackles of control because she remembers when she once was controlled. She is easy to be with because she is comfortable with herself.
She will take you by the hand and gently remind you that you too
are a Goddess or a Nobleman.
We can recognize her because what we see in her is in us.
Remember the Goddess in you.
Who Is
The Nobleman?
Can we open our hearts to the goodness of men who have chosen a partner and family to find out more about themselves? The Nobleman lives within each man and life can sometimes disconnect this truth. Each of us can forget the qualities of the Nobleman when we are disappointed or shut down. If we forget the inner truth, the following commentary may remind us of the brilliance of this connection, available to every man.

I built up the floor board in my little truck so it is at the same level as the seat. Tony can ride around with his head on the dash board. When we come to a red light and I open the window and he sits up, some people have just freaked out, when he puts his head out the window, looking right at them. One asian guy freaked out to the point, he ran a red light, thank god he was turning right. Most people just comment on his good looks..

Gunner wasn't a fan of the car at first. As a pup he'd sit there and drool and then vomit. But after awhile he started to love car rides.
Coming home from the vet: Since he was a pup he enjoyed going to work with daddy: And he loves getting a treat from the bank tellers. He waits patiently but usually as soon as they see him they send him one before the transaction is over.

Amazing Sweater!
I was not sure what to expect when I ordered this sweater as Aiko is hit or miss with me. That said, this is a really cool and unique sweater that I will enjoy all winter long!
It looks better in person with the sleeves rolled down than it does in the picture where the sleeves are rolled up. Love the front zippers too! Pair it with black cords (or other leggings) and some knee-high boots and you are good to go...

Release Date:
August 13, 2003
The Backstreet Boys were the first and best of the boy bands of the great teen pop bands of the late '90s/early 2000s, even if 'N Sync eventually usurped their title of "the biggest boy band." Their reign seemed long, but it really wasn't -- only three albums before the bottom started to fall out with 2000's Black Blue. If everything had gone right, Black Blue would have ruled the charts for about two years, but about a year after its release, the group and their label unleashed The Hits: Chapter One, a sure sign not only that Black Blue didn't perform to expectations, but they were worried about the shifting tastes of their audience. Instead of reviving interest in the group, the collection instead felt like it was closing the door on their period of dominance (and it initially sold that way, too, barely making a dent on the charts). Even if it is a bit of an inadvertent last will and testament, it's a hell of a summation of the group's glory days, offering definitive proof that the group wasn't just the best of their breed (boy bands, that is; thrushes like Britney, Christina, Mandy, and Jessica are not taken into account here), but that their best moments transcend their era -- and there's really no other way to describe such lovely pop tunes as "I Want It That Way," "As Long As You Love Me," and "Quit Playing Games (With My Heart)," three songs that would have sounded perfect in any era (and their vocals would have worked in any era, too). Those are just the ballads -- the dance-pop numbers may be more tied to their era, but "Everybody (Backstreet's Back)" and "Larger Than Life" are infectious pop nonetheless. If the rest of the singles that fill out this 13-track collection aren't quite as good as those five songs (although "Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely" is), they nevertheless are well-crafted, and those aforementioned singles are among the best mainstream pop of its time -- which is not only reason enough for this collection to exist, it's reason enough for pop lovers of any age or generation to have this as part of their library.

Could the iron in women's diet be tied to PMS?
By Lilian Anekwe
A new study has linked the amount of iron in the foods women eat to their risk of having premenstrual syndrome (PMS). But women who had the lowest risk of PMS ate more iron than is recommended. We don't know if this is safe.
What do we know already?
It's thought that between 8 and 15 in 100 women have PMS at some point in their lives. There are different definitions, but PMS generally describes the physical and emotional symptoms that happen during the second half of a woman's menstrual cycle (days 14 to 28), such as stomach bloating and feeling anxious.
Researchers have tried to find out if PMS symptoms are linked with the amount of certain vitamins and nutrients in a woman's diet. Some studies have looked at minerals like magnesium and potassium, but they have been quite small and found inconclusive results.
In this study researchers asked 3,000 women about their premenstrual symptoms, how often they ate different mineral-rich foods, whether they took any multivitamins or supplements, and general questions about their health.
The women were divided into two groups - those who had PMS (defined as at least one physical and one emotional premenstrual symptom that affected their daily life or their relationships), and those who didn't have PMS. The researchers then compared the two groups to see if there was a link to the amount of minerals in their diet.
What does the new study say?
There was a link between the amount of iron in the women's diet and their likelihood of having PMS. Women who had the most iron (around 50 milligrams a day, or the equivalent of eight bowls of fresh spinach) were less likely to have PMS than women who had the least iron. When the researchers looked at iron in food and dietary supplements separately, only the link with iron in food remained strong enough to rule out the effect of chance.
Women who had the most zinc in their diet were also less likely to have PMS than women who had the least. But the link was only just strong enough to rule out being down to chance.
In contrast, women who had the most potassium were more likely to have PMS than women who had the least potassium.
There was no link between the likelihood of PMS and how much sodium, magnesium, or manganese a woman had.
How reliable is the research?
The researchers accounted for things that might have affected whether women had similar symptoms to PMS, such as whether they had anxiety or depression. This helps to make the results more accurate. However, they relied on women to accurately fill in questionnaires on their diet and PMS symptoms, which leaves room for error. For example, the women may not have accurately remembered or recorded what they ate, or what symptoms they had.
What does this mean for me?
This study suggests women who have a lot of iron in their diet are less likely to have PMS than women who have less. The results show there's no benefit from having iron supplements, though, as you can get the iron you need from your diet. But bear in mind that the women who had the highest amount of iron in this study, and the lowest risk of PMS, did eat more iron than is usually recommended. Doctors recommend most women have around 15 to 20 milligrams of iron a day from their diet. We're not sure if it's safe to regularly have more iron than this.

Mission: Design a system or a product that will increase children's sanitation in schools in developing Africa.
Findings: From extensive research, including interviews with non for profit 'charity:water', reports and documentaries, I found that sanitation is the biggest issue humanity is currently facing. Two thirds out of all people do not have proper sanitation, which contaminates their water sources, causing 80% of diseases worldwide. As a continent, Africa is facing the harshest of conditions. At the same time, children are the ones most prone to get sick due to immature immune systems, behaviors that spread germs, lack of control of bodily fluids and exposure to germs in group care. It is also the main reason girls don't go to schools in developing countries. Hand-washing is the number one intervention to decrease diarrheal deaths, and most designs are targeting homes, where one person washes his hands at a time, rather than a more crowded scenario such as a school. It is my prediction that if a child will learn to wash their hands regularly, they will keep doing it in their adult life. When dealing with water, I wish to adapt the design to take all stages into consideration. This includes the use of gray water, and therefore reducing waste and utilizing as much of the resource as possible.
Cost: The product will have to be relatively cheap as I would be targeting an economy that lives on less than USD$4 a day. However, as this would be a product that could greatly assist the economy and reduce sicknesses and create a long time impact, global funding can be raised to assist its at least initial costs.
Production and Materials: I hope to produce my product locally, as I believe that it is important for citizens to support their own economy and markets. Even though this is very region-specific, so far I found that cement and sand are widely available throughout the continent. I am also investigating the use of local plants that could act as anti-bacterials. The product will most likely use 'appropriate technologies', meaning that the design will take the environment, ethics, cultural and social issues into consideration as well as the local economy. Due to the economical state of the target market, I intend to use simple technologies that are likely to be more labor intensive. As the design is for children, I am considering using their high energy level to generate or clean water by designing a rewarding game. This should use fewer resources, be easier to maintain and reduce costs. As well as that, I will use 'intermediate technologies'. These are tools and technologies that are more effective and expensive than low technology methods, however, cheaper than high technologies we use in developed countries. Hopefully the use of intermediate technologies will lead to a higher productivity and have a greater impact.

When temperatures outside begin to rise, the temperatures inside your car will rise even faster. That also increases the number of heatstroke deaths of children left in vehicles.
So far in the United States this year, 19 children have died after they were left behind in vehicles. According to "Safe Kids" - if its just 75 degrees outside, the temperature inside a car can jump to 100 degrees in just 10 minutes. That goes up even more as the outside temperature rises.
100 degrees outside equals 140 degrees inside, and it can reach that in just 15 minutes. Child safety expert Susan Helms says there are some simple techniques you can try to keep your kids safe.
"Put our purse or our briefcase in the back seat with the children because that's going to be where we're going to need them at the next stop or if we are dropping our children off at childcare maybe their diaper bag needs to be in the front seat. Just little reminders so we won't be overcome with our rushed schedules."
Experts say parents can reduce the number of deaths from heatstroke by remembering to A-C-T. The "a" - is for never leaving a child *alone in a car. C- meant to *create reminders in your car. And 't"- *take action. If you see a child alone in a car - call 9-1-1.

Quote colin s:Quote GaryM:Quote narcoman:
one of the richest? nope. rich? yup
Well he was #438 on the Sunday Times 2009 Rich List, so you could say he was "one of the richest 438 people in the UK in 2009". Cowell was only #17 on the list of people who had made their money from music, his £120 million looks like small change next to (record company CEO) Clive Calder's £1.3 billion.
Narcoman is right though - £120 million is "rich" by pretty much everyone's standards, but there's whole strata of super-richness above that. If you are Roman Abramovich you could buy Simon Cowell 58 times over.

Samsung unpacks Galaxy S4 teaser video
The smartphone maker's video introduces us to Jeremy, a "secret messenger" of the Samsung Unpacked event for coming up later this month.
Samsung has posted a video teasing the upcoming Unpacked event in New York City where the smartphone giant is expected to unveil its Galaxy S4 phone.
The video introduces viewers to Jeremy, a boy who Samsung says will be the "secret messenger" for its Unpacked event. In the video, Jeremy is allowed to look inside a box that ostensibly houses the Galaxy S4, and runs home with it. At the end of the video, Jeremy sits down at a desk in his room and the video ends with a "to be continued."
Samsung sent out invitations for its Unpacked event last month. The event, which will showcase the next Galaxy S device, has the tagline, "Be Ready 4 the Next Galaxy." It'll be held on March 14 in New York City.
Rumors have been swirling around the Galaxy S4. Among the features that might come to the device is an eight-core Exynos processor, a separate eight-core graphics processing unit, a 4.99-inch Super Amoled display, 2GB of RAM, a 13-megapixel rear camera with 1080p video capability, a 2-megapixel front-facing camera, and the latest version of Android, known as 4.2.2 Jelly Bean.
Check back in with CNET on March 14 as we detail every last announcement at Samsung's event. Until then, here's today's teaser video:

turkey sight
really easy to install great sight picture and really easy to see in low light
March 19, 2013
Easy to install, great product
I installed this product on 2 shotguns to be used for turkey hunting after patterning revealed a point-of-impact issue with each gun. The sights were easy to install and adjust. The only difficulty originated with one shotgun where the front bead was difficult to remove. Sighting was easy, and repeatable. After moving the point of impact up about 10 inches and to the left 3 inches with one sight, the same adjustment on a different gun produced very similar results, saving me money on shells. The sights seem durable, and have served well all season. When sigthing in the woods on a turkey they performed flawlessly. The only potential draw back to these sights was the elevation of the rear sight catching on clothing or something else, such as brush, however practical experience while hunting has proven this to be a non-issue. I like the option of the ghost ring, however in practice I found that the typical rear sight was more in line with what I would need. The ghost ring would be highly useful in tactical situations. The sight has a little bit of play in it on the front blade, however, at 40-45 yards there is no noticeable effect on the pattern board. I think this sight would be great for buckshot for deer or hogs, and definitely for other turkey hunters. I cannot attest to its accuracy for slugs, as I have not shot slugs with these sights yet. It is installed on both a youth gun as well as my turkey 12 gauge. I may experiment with leaving it on for wingshooting and clay targets for my son on his youth 20 gauge. Frankly, it is performing so well, I do not want to remove it.

Eidos Montreal head David Anfossi announced in October of last year that Square Enix and Eidos would be building what he referred to as "Deus Ex: Universe." Deus Ex: Universe was said to expand beyond games into media such as books and mobile games, so it's possible that Mankind Divided will fall into one of those categories.
However, not all hope is lost for those holding out for the sequel to Deus Ex: Human Revolution.
